UK  ORDER  OF  THE  NATIVE  SONS 
of  tin-  Golden  Wesl  is  using  its  nu- 
merical,  moral  and  personal  forces 
for  the  obtaining  of  the  Panama  Pa- 
cific Lnternational  Exposition.  Months 
ago,  way  up  in  the  mountains  of 
California,  on  the  banks  of  the  beau- 
tiful and  world-famed  Lake  Taho,  in 
Grand  Parlor  assembled,  it  passed  a 
resolution  declaring  "San  Francisco 
to  be  the  location  most  certain  to 
insure  the  full  success  of  the  Panama 
Pacific  International  Exposition,  and  calling  upon 
the  Congress  and  citizens  of  the  United  States,  upon 
all  who  desire  the  greatest  find  most  rapid  possible 
increase  in  the  commerce  of  our  country,  upon  all 
who  hold  ili«'  welfare  of  our  Nation  at  heart,  to 
aid  San  Francisco,  t lie  Queen  of  the  Pacific,  in  her 
just  and  laudable  ambition  to  construct  and  hold 
by  the  Golden  Gate  an  International  Exposition  dis- 
tinctly commemorative  of  the  completion  of  the 
great  work  that  marks  a  new  ers  in  the  progress  of 
the  world  and  the  inspiration  ol   its   peoples." 

Since  then  the  members  of  the  Order,  as  individ- 
uals, have  addressed  their  friends  throughout  the 
United  States,  asking  them  to  request  their  rep- 
resentatives  in  Congress  to  vote  for  the  holding  of 
t  In-  Fair  to  celebrate  the  completion  of  the  Canal 
at  the  most  logical  point — San  Francisco.  But  all 
resolutions,  all  personal  endeavors,  letters,  postal 
cards  and  interviews  will  be  ineffective  upon  Con- 
gress  and  those  to  whom  they  were  sent  unless  it 
becomes  manifest  that  the  people  of  California  gen- 
erally desire  the  Exposition.  That  they  desire  it, 
we  a II  know,  but  they  must  show  it  in  the  forth- 
coming election. 

If  the  people,  through  carelessness  or  otherwise, 
neglect  to  vote  for  the  two  constitutional  amend- 
ments to  be  submitted  which  will  make  it  possible 
to  finances  the  fair,  it  will  very  seriously  jeopardize 
our  chances.  It  will  not  be  sufficient  to  merely  pass 
the  amendments,  but  they  must  be  passed  by  a  very 
large  vote  in  order  that  it  may  be  clearly  mani- 
fested to  Congress  that  the  people  of  California  are 
not  only  unanimous  for  the  Fair  but  that  they  are 
unanimously  active  to  obtain  it. 


Work  and  Vote  For  the 

Passage  of 
Panama  Pacific  Exposi- 
tion Amendments 

(BY  DANIEL  A.  RYAN,  GRAND  PRESIDENT.) 
California  is  desirous  to  appear  before  Congress 
at  the  session  in  December  and  say  once  morej  "We 
want  the  Fair.  When  we  appeared  before,  we  said 
we  wanted  it  and  we  would  be  able  to  finance  it. 
Our  whole  people  have  declared  fof  it.  and  we  have 
the  money.  We  ask  of  you  nothing  in  the  way  of 
finances.  We  have  $17,500,000."  How  is  California 
going  to  be  able  to  do  this?  $7,500,000  have  al- 
ready been  raised.  The  people  of  San  Francisco 
alone  have  subscribed  it.  It  is  one  of  the  marvels 
in  the  history  of  modern  finance  how  San  Fran- 
cisco last  April  raised  in  one  hour  $5,000,000 — San 
Francisco,  the  city  which  just  four  years  previous 
was  but  ruins  and  ashes.  $5,000,000  more  are  to  be 
raised  by  San  Francisco  alone  through  a  municipal 
bond  issue,  and  while  this  $5,000,000  is  to  be  raised 
by  San  Francisco  alone,  strange  to  say  to  do  so  it 
needs  the  consent  of  the  balance  of  the  State,  since 
in  order  to  raise  it,  it  must  amend  its  charter,  and 
to  amend  its  charter,  in  this  instance,  it  requires  a 
constitutional  amendment.  This  is  provided  for  by 
Assembly  Constitutional  Amendment  No.  33.  When 
this  amendment  is  passed  the  citizens  of  San  Fran- 
cisco will  be  able  to  provide  for  a  bond  issue  for 
exposition    purposes    of   $5,000,000. 

The  remaining  $5,000,000  arc  to  be  raised  by  the 
people  of  the  State  of  California  at  large,  at  the 
rate  of  $1,250,000  a  year,  and  this  by  means  of  tax- 
ation. Of  this  $5,000,000,  it  is  estimated  that  San 
Francisco  will  contribute  twenty-three  per  cent.,  or 
$1,150,000,  making  a  total  contribution  to  the  Ex- 
position fund  by  San  Francisco  of  $13,650,000,  leav- 
ing but  $3,850,000  to  be  raised  by  the  State  at  large. 
To  this  the  bay  counties,  of  course,  will  contribute 


their  pro  rata.     It  will  therefore  be  seen  that  if  San 
Francisco   gets    the    Fair,    it    will   cost    thai    po 
oi    the   State   alone   $13,650,000   and    the   balance   ol 
the  stale  but   $3,850,000 

n\   coins,.  San    Francisco   will   be    greal 
bj    the   Fair,   l.nt    bo   will    the    whole   State.     What 
ever   helps   its   chief   city,   helps   the   State,   and   the 
benefit    to   the   State   at    large    will    undoubtedly    be 
permanent.     People  from  all  part-  of  the  world  will 
(lock  tu  the   fair.     Railroads   will   reduce  then    i 

California    i-   known    round    the    world.      h>    n al 

resource-,  its  fertile  valleys,  and  its  glorious  climate 

are    known    c\  er\  where,   and    of    the    millions    that   will 

come  here  for  t In-  Fair,  many  will  remain  and  help 
populate  the  millions  of  uninhabited  acres  of  this 
far-western  State.  California  communicates  with  the 
nations  of  the  world.  It  corresponds  through  its 
citizens  with  all  the  world,  and  the  correspondents 
of  it-  citizens  are  eager  for  the  land  which  has  done 
so  much  for  others.  They  await  the  facilitie  to 
come. 

in  :i  work  that  means  so  much  to  California,  the 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  are  and  should 
be  most  aggressively  active,  and  the  immediate  and 
most  important  work,  as  has  been  stated,  is  the 
p.i--n:L.'  of  the  constitutional  amendments  by  a  tre- 
mendously large  vote.  The  greatest  fear  is  the 
overlooking  of  the  amendments  on  the  ballot  A 
general  election  will  be  held  on  the  Bth  of  Novem- 
ber, consequently  the  State  ticket,  with  other  con 
atitutional  amendments,  will  form  part  of  the  bal- 
lot upon  which  SENATE  CONSTITUTIONAL 
AMENDMENT  No.  52  and  ASSEMBLY  CONSTI- 
TUTIONAL AMENDMENT  No.  33  will  appear. 
To  avoid  this  danger,  the  numbers  of  these  two 
amendments  should  be  immediately  committed  to 
memory  and  spoken  of  constantly  wherever  people 
assemble   from  now  until   election. 

Remember,  the  larger  the  vote,  the  greater  our 
chances.  Loyalty  to  the  State  is  our  obligation. 
There  is  no  better  way  of  showing  it  than  by  ac- 
complishing something  that  means  a  substantial  and 
lasting  benefit  to  our  State  and  all  its  citizens. 
Our  Order  has.  through  its  representatives  assembled. 
endorsed  the  project.  It  is  for  us  as  individual  mem- 
bers  to   make   good   the  promises  of  our  Order. 


California's  Resources  and  Development 

(By  R.  E.  QUEEN,  Chairman  Advertising  and   Publicity  Committee,  Home  Industry  League.) 


ITH  THE  GROWTH  IX  POPCLATIOX 
anil  the  development  of  our  natural 
resouri  es  there  is  gradually  .  eoming 
to  the  people  of  California  a  realiza- 
tion of  the  necessity  and  importance 
of  upbuilding  the  manufacturing  in- 
dustries of  the  Stat.-.  With  match- 
less climate,  and  soil  unsurpassed  for 
fertility  and  productiveness,  and  with 
an  abundant  supply  of  the  most  eco- 
nomical fuel,  the  opportunties  here 
are  remarkable,  and  Califorians  will 
certainly  not  be  slow  to  make  the  most  of  them. 
To  utilize  the  resources  of  this  great  State,  to  give 
employment  to  the  people,  and  to  add  to  the  general 
prosperity,  are  some  of  the  problems  which  confront 
us,  and  their  solution  is  to  be  found  in  promoting 
the  manufacturing  and  productive  interests,  which 
work  will  appeal  with  special  earnestness  to  the  Na- 
tive Sons  and  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West. 
The  home  Industry  League  was  formed  to  co-operate 
with  them,  and  with  all  the  people  of  California,  in 
the     effort     tn     advance     the     common     interests.       We 

enter  upon  this  great  work,  not  in  any  narrow  spirit, 
hut  with  a  full  realization  of  our  responsibilities 
to  the  people  of  Ibis  St  ate  and  of  all  the  other 
states  to  upbuild  not  only  our  home  trade,  but  al>o 
the  imports  and  exports  of  California  as  well,  with 
good  will  for  all.  and  tor  the  general  good  o(  the 
whole  country:  In  all  sections  of  the  United  State- 
strenuous  efforts  are  being  made  to  promote  the 
manufacturing  interests  and  industries,  as  it  is  well 
known  that  such  action  conduces  most  largely  to  the 
public  welfare,  and  we  in  California  would  indeed 
be  lacking  in  true  enterprise  if  we  failed  to  do  our 
part. 

Highest  Excellence;  Moderate  Prices. 
I'odple    are    aws  kening    everywhere    to    the    im- 
portance   nt    establishing   higher    standards    of   excel- 
lence,   a     more     economic     basis     of     production,     and 


more  general  information  of  the  relative  values  of 
those  manufactured  products  which  are  intended  for 
general  consumption,  and  the  Home  Industry  League 
was  formed  tor  the  accomplishment  of  the  three  ob- 
jects stated.  It  is  gradually  becoming  known,  not 
on  I _\  in  t  lalifornia.  but  throughout  the  entire  world 
that,  owing  to  the  great  productiveness  of  this 
State  and  the  many  natural  advantages  which  it 
possesses,  a  large  number  of  California  products 
meet  tin-  highest  requirement  s  of  the  well-informed 
purchasers  of  all  the  United  States  and  many  foreign 
lands  as  to  quality  and  moderate  price,  and  the 
League  has  undertaken  the  great  work  of  informing 

tin-   j pie   as   to   which   products  attain   the   highest 

excellence  in  California,  at  most  reasonable  prices, 
and  as  to  the  value  and  sources  of  those  other 
products  which  are  not  produced  so  abundantly  here 
and  which  must,  therefore,  be  purchased  elsewhere. 

In  writing  the  present  article  we  "ill  not  attempt 
to  give  detailed  information  as  to  the  manufactured 
products  of  this  State  which  are  worthy  of  special 
mention  ami  entitled  to  the  patronage  of  all  who 
are  in  need  of  such  products,  as  it  would  make  this 
communication  altogether  too  long,  but  the  general 
information  herein  given  will  be  followed,  at  a  later 
date,  with  the  specific  data  which  is  requisite  to  the 
intelligent  purchaser.  It  will  be  recognized  at  once 
that  the  intelligent  co- operation  of  the  purchaser  is 
essentia]  to  the  upbuilding  of  the  manufacturing 
interests  of  this  or  any  other  State,  and  that  the 
purchaser  who  buys  intelligently  not  only  serves 
himself  to  best  advantage,  but  thereby  promotes  the 
welfare    of    the    entire    community. 

The  Fruit  Industry. 
Among  the  foremost  industries  of  this  State,  tn 
which  reference  will  now  be  made  in  a  general  way. 
may  be  mentioned  the  fruit  products,  which  are 
justly  regarded  as  of  the  highest  quality  and  in  the 
canning  and  preserving  of  which  a  number  of  manu- 
facturers here  have  attained   to  a    very   high   standard 


of  excellence  and  which  run.  in  the  aggregate,  into 
many  millions  of  dollars  annually.  The  quality  is 
of  such  a  high  order  and  the  prices  so  reasonable 
that  the  demand,  not  only  at  home,  but  abroad,  has 
become  so  large  that  they  have  difficulty  in  keeping 
the  trade  supplied  with  the  canned  fruits,  jams. 
jellies,  preserves  and  marmalades.  As  large  as  has 
become  the  canning  and  preserving  of  our  fruits. 
immense  quantities  are  exported,  in  the  natural  state, 
nt  properly  dried,  and  many  thousands  of  tons  of 
grapes  are  annually  converted  into  raisins  and  into 
wine,   thereby    giving  employment    to   large   numbers. 

Large  quantities  of  the  purest  olive  oil  are  likewise 
manufactured  in  California,  of  such  excellent  quality 
and  flavor  as  to  meet  with  universal  favor  and  a 
constant  demand  from  all  sections  of  the  United 
States.  With  tin-  generally  increasing  population  of 
all  the  states  the  demand  for  olive  oil  and  other  food 
products  will  constantly  grow  larger  and  prove 
profitable,  not  only  to  those  who  are  directly  inter- 
ested in  their  sale,  but.  indirectly,  to  the  consumer 
as  well,  as  be  is  thereby  afforded  the  most  whole- 
some foods  in  the  most  economical  manner.  Many 
of  the  fruits  are  also  utilized  in  the  production  of 
medicinal  compounds  of  well-known  value  and  general 
u  -  tge 

Other  Important  Factors. 

Turning  from  a  consideration  of  our  fruit  a  to 
other  food  products,  we  find  that  our  cereals  are 
abundant  and  that  immense  quantities  are  annu- 
ally consumed  and  shipped  to  other  sections,  after 
being  properly  prepared  for  the  market.  The  de- 
mand is  also  increasing  for  condensed  milk,  cheese 
and  similar  products  of  this  State.  In  the  manu- 
facture of  biscuits,  crackers  and  confections  of  various 
kinds,  California  is  fast  assuming  a  position  of  first 
importance  and  produces  products  of  the  lines  named 
equal  to  the  best  which  are  known  to  commerce, 
giving  employment  to  thousands  of  people  and  en- 
larging tin-  commerce  of  our  state  by  millions  of 
dollars  annually.  Likewise,  in  the  production  of 
chocolate  and  cocoa,  in  the  canning  of  soups  and 
sardines,  tomatoes,  asparagus  and  other  regel 
and  canned  fruits,  also  in  the  production  of  paste 
f 1   stuffs.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


November 


Important  Happenings  in  California  Fifty  Years  Ago 


HE  PRESIDENTIAL  ELECTION  WAS 
held  November  6th  and  there  was 
intense  excitement  throughout  the 
St :i L e,  as  well  as  the  Nation.  As 
only  a  few  of  the  principal  towns 
were  connected  with  the  Capital  and 
metropolis  of  the  State  by  telegraph, 
the  returns  were  slow  in  coming  into 
publicity,  nnd  owing  to  the  close- 
ness of  the  vote  between  Lincoln 
and  Douglas,  it  was  over  a  week  be- 
fore the  result  could  be  definitely 
determined.  Betting  on  Douglas  carrying  the  State 
continued  during  the  week  and  thousands  of  dollars 
were  wagered  in  San  Francisco  after  the  election 
was  over,  maaiy  bets  not  being  paid  nutil  the 
official  vote  was  announced.  San  Francisco  cast 
14,397  votes  and  gave  Lincoln  fifty  per  cent  of  the 
total.  The  Republicans  carried  San  Francisco  by 
a  plurality  of  2900.  Sacramento  City  and  Nevada 
County  went  the  same  way  by  small  pluralities, 
and  this  virtually  decided  the  result  in  the  State. 
These  three  places  were  the  political  battle  grounds 
of  the  State.  The  result  was  finally  figured  to  be: 
Lincoln,  38,734;  Douglas,  38,023;  Breckenridge,  33,- 
975;   Bill.  9131.     Lincoln's  plurality  was  711. 

One  amusing  incident  was  the  attributing  of  the 
cause  of  the  result  to  the  pony  express.  The  ex- 
press brought  the  news  of  Republican  victories  in 
the  state  elections  of  Pennsylvania,  Ohio  and  other 
Northern  states  in  October  in  about  ten  days  after 
the  elections  occurred  and  this  news,  elating  the  Re- 
publicans and  correspondingly  depressing  the  Demo- 
crats, caused  those  wavering  in  their  choice  to  join 
the  prospective  winning  party.  Had  the  pony  ex- 
press not  been  established,  the  news  would  have 
been  about  twenty-live  days  coming  by  overland 
stage  or  Panama  steamers,  and  would  have  been  too 
late  to  have  had  much  effect  on  the  result  in  this 
State.  The  result  in  the  Nation,  giving  the  elec- 
tion of  president  to  Abraham  Lincoln,  was  brought 
to  Port  Churchill  by  the  pony  express  on  Novem- 
ber 15th,  from  which  place  it  was  telegraphed  to 
Sacramento  and  San  Francisco,  and  from  there  sent 
throughout  the  State.  The  Republicans  went  wild 
with   joy    and    enthusiasm. 

An  unfortunate  ending  of  a  political  quarrel  was 
that  at  Visalia,  between  John  Shannon,  editor  of 
the  Visalia  Delta,  and  Win.  G.  Morris,  a  prominent 
citizen.  On  November  14th  they  had  an  altercation 
and  Shannon  was  shot  and  killed  by  Morris. 
Funds  for  Washington  Monument. 
The  placing  of  contribution  boxes  by  the  side  of 
the  ballot  boxes,  to  receive  funds  for  the  building 
of  the  Washington  monument,  was  a  successful 
proposition.  A  committee  had  been  appointed  to 
take  charge  of  the  contributed  money,  and  make  the 
award  of  the  marble  statue  to  be  given  to  the 
county  making  the  largest  donation  per  capita  of 
the  vote.  Many  precincts  averaged  over  50  cents  per 
vote.  Whisky  Flat  appeared  to  be  the  banner  pre- 
cinct, as  with  twenty-six  votes,  its  contribution  box 
contained  $60,  while  Diamond  Springs  was  made  an 
object  of  ridicule  by  its  neighboring  towns  of  El 
Dorado  County  because,  with  over  a  hundred  voters, 
it  only  showed  up  with  $2.50.  The  amount  collected 
totaled  $10,962.  Colusa  County  was  awarded  the 
prize  statue,  its  per  capita  per  vote  being  60  cents. 
The  mining  counties  were  much  more  liberal  than 
the  cities,  as  El  Dorado  County,  casting  less  than 
half  the  vote  of  San  Francisco,  contributed  more 
than  that  city. 

On  November  8th  a  set  of  silver  plate,  valued  at 
$4000,  was  presented  to  Senator  E.  D.  Baker  by  the 
business  men  of  San  Francisco,  irrespective  of  poli- 
tics. It  was  given  as  a  token  of  regard  and 
appreciation  for  the  service  rendered  by  the  dis- 
tinguished gentleman  in  behalf  of  the  State. 

The  overland  telegraph  line  was  this  month  ex- 
tended eastward  to  Fort  Churchill,  in  Nevada,  and 
materia]  for  constructing  it  as  far  as  Salt  Lake  City 
was  assembled  at  Placerville  for  transportation  over 
the  Sierra  Nevada  Mountains.  The  construction  of 
the  line  was  also  proceeding  westward  from  St. 
Joseph,  Mo.,  and  had  reached  Fort  Kearney,  over 
300  miles  west  of  St.  Louis. 

A  hill  composed  of  alum  was  developed  near 
Lancha    Plana. 

Humboldt  County  had  a  severe  earthquake  shock 
on  November  12th.  It  was  not  felt  in  San  Francisco, 
nor  in  the  adjoining  interior  counties. 
High  Rates  Cause  Trouble. 
Tuolumne  County  was  in  the  throes  of  a  rate  dis- 
pute between  the  miners  and  the  ditch  owners, 
which  was  causing  considerable  ill-feeling  between 
the  two  parties.     Ditch  property  was  being  frequent-

ly  destroyed  or  damaged  by  unknown  parties 
using  powder  at  night  to  accomplish  their  evil  ends. 
The  rate  objected  to  was  five  dollars  a  day  for 
twelve  miner  inches  of  water.  The  miners  struck 
for  a  reduction  to  three  dollars  a  day.  There  were 
twenty-one  separate  ditch  companies  in  the  county, 
owning  275  miles  of  ditches  and  having  about 
$2,000,000   invested. 

In  comparison  with  the  present  agitation  over  high 
prices  for  meat  and  other  food  products,  and  the 
effort  in  different  sections  of  the  country  to  regulate 
the  price  by  boycotting  the  article,  the  statement 
of  a  Bed  Bluff  newspaper,  published  in  November, 
1S60,  is  interesting.  Beef  was  selling  there  for  six 
cents  a  pound  retail  and  would,  within  another  week, 
from  indications  then  shown,  be  given  away  and 
probably  people  be  paid  to  eat  it,  as  the  supply  was 
much   greater   than   the   demand. 

Wheat  was  being  exported  to  England  in  large 
quantities  by  sailing  vessels  and  was  worth  $1.10 
per  cental  in  Napa  Valley. 

An  enormous  crop  of  potatoes  was  being  dug  in 
the  vicinity  of  Bodega  and  Tomales,  with  Petaluma 
as  the  shipping  point;  10,693  sacks,  weighing  1,200,000 
pounds,  were  shipped  in  four  days  from  there  to 
San  Francisco.  It  was  estimated  that  150,000  sacks 
would  be  harvested,  and  that  prices  would  be  wholly 
to   the   advantage   of   the   consumer. 

Hoge  were  selling  at  five  cents  a  pound,  and  it 
was  predicted  that  Washington,  a  town  in  Yolo 
County  opposite  Sacramento,  would  became  the  Cin- 
cinnati or  "Porkopolis"  of  the  Pacific  Coast.  Mitchell 
and  Willard  had  erected  a  plant  for  killing  and  cur- 
ing hogs  that  employed  twenty-five  men  and  was 
disposing  of  one  hundred  hogs  daily. 

The  extent  of  the  teaming  and  freighting  indus- 
tries, from  the  depots  of  supply  to  the  mining  towns, 
can  be  surmised  from  the  statements  of  parties  who 
made  a  count  of  the  number  of  teams  enroute  to 
Washoe  between  Genoa  and  Placerville  on  one  day 
and  he  made  the  number  295  in  addition  to  a  score  or 
more  of  pack  trains.  On  the  Auburn  Turnpike  a  toll 
gate  keeper  had  a  record  for  one  day  of  seventy-one 
freight  wagons,  nineteen  buggies  and  sixteen  horse- 
men enroute  to  Nevada  County.  Nearly  all  the 
freighters  were  six  to  ten  belled  mule  or  horse  teams. 
Old   Boreas   Becomes   Very   Active. 

A  gale  from  the  north  began  to  blow  on  Novem- 
ber 15th,  and  prevailed  for  three  days,  that  exceeded 
in  violence  anything  Old  Boreas  had  done  in  his 
line  before,  and  from  accounts  has  not  been  equaled 
since.  Houses  were  unroofed  in  every  town  in  the 
State,  flumes  were  blown  down,  and  roads  in  the 
foothill  and  mountain  regions  made  impassable  by 
fallen  trees.  A  dozen  or  more  fatalities  and  serious 
accidents  were  reported  of  persons  being  caught  by 
falling  houses  and  trees.  The  Sacramento  and  San 
Joaquin  Valleys  were  filled  with  dense  clouds  of 
dust  and  sand  and  a  disagreeable  condition  prevailed. 
The  gale  caused  a  grass  fire,  which  started  in  Sisson 
Valley,  to  destroy  in  a  very  short  time  a  large 
amount  of  property  belonging  to  the  farmers  of  that 
valley. 

The  mining  town  of  Don  Pedro  Bar,  in  Tuolumne 
County,  was  destroyed  by  an  incendiary  fire  on  No- 
vember 10th.  Ten  business  houses  were  consumed 
and  a  $30,000  loss  ensued. 

The  Lyceum  Theater,  in  San  Francisco,  was  burned 
November  27th,  with  a  $30,000  loss.  The  incendiary 
dropped  a  lighted  torch  through  the  roof  skylight 
upon  the  scenery  of  the  stage  and  it  was  a  roaring 
furnace  in  a  few  minutes. 

The  effects  of  the  great  foot-race  of  September 
18th,  near  Mission  San  Jose,  on  the  Mexican  popu- 
lation who  had  won  some  $60,000  from  the  Ameri- 
can phmgers,  were  still  in  evidence  at  that  town, 
as  the  merchants,  saloonkeepers,  hotel  men  and 
sporting  element  continued  to  reap  a  harvest  from 
the  winners.  The  little  town  was  thronged  day  and 
night  with  gaily  dressed  caballeros,  flush  with  money. 
Monte  games  and  fandanga  with   guitar  accompani- 


ment were  going  at  full  blast  nearly  all  day  and 
night,  and  the  winner  of  the  foot-race  was  waiting 
for  a  challenge  from  any  ambitious  sprinter  who 
might  desire  to  try  conclusions. 

The  amount  of  gold  dust  deposited  in  the  San 
Francisco  mint  this  month  was  35,909  ounces,  valued 
at  $677,653,  nearly  all  of  which  came  from  placers 
and  river  channels.  Hydraulic  mining  at  Timbuctoo 
was  yielding  handsome  returns  to  the  miners  of 
that  'locality.  McCallas  &  Co.  cleaned  up  $4270 
after  an  eleven-day  run.  What  was  known  as  the 
Dutch  Company,  at  Red  Dog,  took  out  272  ounces, 
worth  $5010,  in  four  weeks,  working  four  men.  Chas. 
Trevalli,  while  ground  sluicing  in  his  claim  at  Scotts 
Bar,  uncovered  a  vein  of  decomposed  quartz  from 
which  he  obtained  $1089  worth  of  gold  in  thirty 
minutes,  in  two  pans  of  the  stuff;  he  was  expected 
to  dig  a  fortune  in  a  few  days.  Hunt  &  Co.,  at 
Scott's  Ear,  took  out  eighty  ounces,  valued  at  over 
$1400  in  one  day;  they  had  one  nugget  that 
weighed  six  pounds.  The  mining  town  of  La  Porte 
was  in  a  flourishing  condition;  the  citizens  con- 
tributed $240  in  a  few  hours  to  purchase  a  church- 
bell. 

Washoe  was  still  holding  its  own.  Over  300 
claims  had  been  filed  on  and  recorded.  These  covered 
many  miles  of  ground,  and  the  majority  of  them 
were  rich  only  in  porphry  and  expectations.  The 
ophir  mine  was  shipping  ore  that  assayed  $4000  a 
ton. 

Governement   Negotiates   With   Indians. 

Col.  Londer,  a  Government  agent,  sought  out 
Chief  Winnemucca  of  the  Piutes,  who  had  been  at 
war  with  the  whites  in  Nevada,  and  had  a  peace 
conference  with  him.  Winnemucca  would  not  meet 
with  him  until  after  sundown,  and  on  being  in- 
formed that  Col.  Londer  came  at  the  request  of  the 
Great  Father  (the  president),  to  find  out  what  his 
children  (the  Piutes)  wanted  done  for  them,  haught- 
ily replied:  "I  come  in  darkness  to  talk,  not  because 
I  like  darkness.  My  heart  is  open.  It  likes  the 
sunshine,  but  clouds  are  before  my  eyes.  Many  of 
my  young  men  have  been  killed,  ami  I  see  in  the 
white  man's  train  men  who  have  killed  them.  My 
breath  was  hot;  it  might  have  burned  your  ears,  had 
I  spoken  too  soon.  Now,  I  sit  upon  the  white  chief's 
blanket;  I  have  eaten  of  his  food,  and  now  I  smoke 
the  pipe  of  peace  and  will  be  quiet." 

Col.  Londer  stated  he  had  brought  with  him  a 
brother  of  a  man  that  the  Piutes  had  killed  and 
robbed  of  his  house  and  home.  None  of  this  man's 
family  had  ever  injured  a  Piute.  Winnemucca  was 
silent  for  awhile,  then  indignantly  replied:  "Is 
Winnemucca  a  woman,  that  he  should  council  like 
a  woman?  No,  he  is  a  man!"  Striking  his  breast 
forcibly  as  he  spoke,  he  continued:  "The  white 
men  never  heard  me  cry!  No,  not  once!  Ten  snows 
have  fallen  since  they  came  to  see  Winnemucca. 
They  were  few,  and  very  poor.  They  promised  us 
all  we-  wanted,  but  they  were  not  truthful.  The 
country  belongs  to  the  Piutes,  and  not  to  the  white 
men.  The  whites  have  taken  the  Indian's  ponies  and 
their  buckskins,  and  never  gave  any  pay.  They  are 
like  the  coyotes,  always  ready  to  eat  and  to  bark, 
but  no  good." 

After  expressing  the  willinimess  of  his  tribe  to 
go  on  a  Government  reservation  and  stating  that 
they  wanted  cattle  and  plows,  he  closed  the  con- 
ference by  throwing  off  his  blankets,  and  rising  to 
his  full  height,  exclaimed:  "Irishman,  come!  Dutch- 
man, come!  Mexican,  come!  American  man,  ctmie! 
John  Chinamen,  come!  All  dig  him  hole,  find  him 
hole!  No  give  Piute  money!  Winnemucca  die  soon. 
He  find  him  hole,  then  he  no  care  any  more." 
Hoops   Serve   a   Good   Purpose. 

Thanksgiving  Day  was  observed  on  Thursday. 
November  29th,  in  the  usual  manner  of  church' 
services  in  the  morning  and  grand  balls  in  the  even- 
ing. One  town  set  up  a  claim  of  having  the  champion 
diner  of  the  State.  He  responded  to  three  invita- 
tions to  Thanksgiving  feasts,  one  at  2  p.m.,  another 
at  4  p.  m.,  and  a  third  at  5:30  p.  m.,  ate  heartily  at 
all,  and  survived. 

It  was  related  that  the  Thanksgivign  Day  ball  in 
Dutch  Flat  was  attended  by  a  newly  marrie'd  couple. 
The  woman  was  young  and  attractive,  loved  to  dance 
and  had  so  much  attention  shown  her  by  the  beaux 
that  the  husband  became  jealous,  and*  before  the 
supper  hour  at  midnight  had  arrived,  demanded  that 
his  wife  go  home  with  him.  She  was  in  the  height 
of  her  enjoyment  when  the  summons  came,  but  in- 
stead of  showing  any  disappointment  over  the  way 
affairs  were  going,  she  excused  herself  a  few  minute's 
and  retired  to  the  dressing  room.  Hoops  of  the 
largest  possible  circumference  were  the  fashion,  and 
of   course    she    was    encircled    by    one    of    the    most

Every  time  you  buy  products  labeled  "Made  in 
California"  you  are  assured  of  the  BEST.  Encourage 
home  industries  by  demanding  HOME  PRODUCTS. 
This  is  the  best  way  every  loyal  Californian  can 
insure  his  State's  prosperity.  HOME  INDUSTRY 
means  more  factories,  more  workingmen,  and  more 
employment  at  better  wages.  Bear  this  in  mind,

Loyalty  to  the  State  Through  Its  Industries — 

Lack  of  Such  Loyalty  Retards  State's  Progress 


(BY  DANIEL  A.  RYAN,  GRAND    PRESIDENT  N.  S.  G.  W.) 


LTHOUGH  WE  HAVE  ALWAYS 
taken  an  interest  in  all  things  con- 
cerning California,  we  have  not 
given  to  the  industrial  development 
of  the  State  the  careful  and  loyal 
consideration  it  should  have  received. 
The  manufacturing  and  producing 
interests  of  California,  more  than 
any  other  subject  of  economic  value 
from  a  labor  and  profit-producing 
standpoint  to  our  citizens,  has  been 
in  the  main  neglected  when,  above 
all  others,  it  should  have  our  most  earnest  support 
and  co-operation.  This  applies  not  only  to  our  mem- 
bership, but  to  every  citizen  of  the  State.  The  abso- 
lute necessity  of  attention  on  our  part  to  a  subject 
that  is  so  vital  to  California  has  been  very  forcibly 
impressed  upon  the  writer  since  he  became  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Home  Industry  League  of  California,  re- 
cently organized  in  San  Francisco,  and  which  led 
him  to  an  investigation  of  conditions.  He  knew  that 
conditions  were  not  good,  but  could  hardly  believe 
the  reports  of  the  bureau  of  statistics  of  the  League. 
To  satisfy  himself,  he  investigated  as  far  as  he  could 
and  found  that  they  were. not  exaggerated;  in  fact, 
the  reports  hardly  reached  the  extreme  distress  of 
conditions  as  they  exist,  beginning  with  the  city  of 
San  Francisco,  where  the  decline  of  manufacturing 
industries  is  greater  than  that  of  any  other  com- 
munity. 

Industrial  Decline  in  San  Francisco. 
In  1839  we  had  in  the  city  of  San  Francisco  one 
grist  mill,  the  first  manufacturing  plant  on  San 
Francisco  Bay.  In  1856  we  were  manufacturing  in 
a  dozen  lines,  important  among  them  being  found- 
ries, machine  shops,  lumber  mills,  boiler  and  grist 
mills.     In  1860  the  lumber  was  still  increasing,  un- 


til in  1S66  we  had  264  plants  of  nearly  every  rep- 
resentative manufacturing  industry.  In  fact,  at  that 
time  we  were  rolling  steel  and  rails,  which  we  are 
not  doing  at  this  late  day.  The  healthy  growth  of 
manufacturing  continued  until,  in  1900,  we  had  reach- 
ed 4002  manufacturing  establishments  in  the  area  of 
San  Francisco  Bay,  although  the  depression  of  1894 
was  the  beginning  of  our  great  loss  of  machinery 
business  to  Eastern  concerns.  The  population  at  that 
time  was  approximately  330.000,  the  factories  em- 
ploying 41,978  people.  The  number  of  factories  con- 
tinued to  grow  until,  in  1904,  according  to  the  Fed- 
eral figures,  we  had  4,500  factories  employing  44,875 
people,  the  product  output  valued  at  $23S.103,663. 

Today,  according  to  figures  secured  by  a  repre- 
sentative of  one  of  the  San  Francisco  commercial 
bodies,  there  are  in  the  vicinity  of  San  Francisco 
Bay  only  1,398  factories,  employing  about  14.000  men, 
with  an  output  valued  at  $7S,891,879,  or  the  deplor- 
able decrease  of  sixty-eight  per  cent  in  six  years' 
time.  Think  of  it !  It  is  hardly  believable !  Imagine 
what  that  means  to  a  city  like  San  Francisco,  with 
all  its  natural  advantages  on  tide  water,  with  the 
greatest  port  on  the  Pacific,  the  terminal  of  four 
transcontinental  railroads,  the  shipping  center  of  the 
Coast,  the  recipient  of  nearly  nine  millions  of  horse- 
power water  in  its  bay.  the  distributing  point  of 
immense  quantities  of  oil,  backed  by  resources  of 
an  empire  in  our  State's  boundaries  that  should 
make  it  the  largest  manufacturing  city  in  the  Union 
today,  outside  of  the  City  of  New  York. 

Stop  and  consider  what  such  a  decrease  means, 
not  only  to  San  Francisco  and  its  contiguous  terri- 
tory, but  to  our  entire  State.  The  result  on  general 
business  conditions  commercially  is  demoralizing.  It 
sbows  the  absolute  necessity  of  building  up  our  once 
prosperous   industries,   or  at   least   of  bringing  them 


back  to  a  normal  basis  of  output.  The  result  morally 
of  the  abnormal  decrease  of  our  factories,  and  the 
knowledge  of  the  same,  has  a  depressing  effect  on 
people's  minds  that  will  be  most  difficult  to  over- 
come. The  result  financially  to  the  mechanics,  la- 
borers, clerks,  and  the  employers,  to  the  trades- 
people, and,  in  truth,  to  our  entire  business  conin 
nity,  means  a  loss  in  the  decrease  of  sixty-eight  per 
cent  of  factories,  of  $92,625  a  day,  $555,750  a  week, 
$2,123,000  a  month,  or  $25,476,000  a  year,  for  wages 
alone.  The  loss  of  the  value  of  the  output  after 
the  product  is  finisned  is  the  difference  between  six 
years  ago  of  $238,103,663  and  that  of  today  of  ap- 
proximately $7S,S91,879,  or  $159,211,784.  'That  is 
what  the  loss  amounts  to  for  the  State  of  Califor- 
nia. Sucb  being  the  case,  California  must  do  some- 
thing to  remedy  such  a  subnormal  and  distressing 
condition. 

Lack  of  Loyalty  the  Cause. 
"What  must  it  do?"  many  will  helplessly  ask.  But 
first  of  all,  what  is,  or  was,  the  cause?  This  is  the 
perplexing  question  that  comes  to  our  mind.  We 
have  heard  that  it  exists,  but  why?  If  we  are  to 
find  the  remedy,  we  must  first  find  the  cause.  The 
fundamental  reason,  says  the  Home  Industry  League, 
is  because  we  do  not  patronize  home  industry.  The 
League  is  right.  It  must  be  that,  when  San  Fran- 
cisco and  vicinity  reached  its  maximum  amount  of 
factories  in  1904,  which  was  the  greatest  increase 
(34%)  of  any  factory  district  in  the  United  States 
that  year,  except  the  cities  of  Buffalo  and  St.  Louis, 
the  Eastern  manufacturers  began  to  learn  of  the 
big  market  out  here  that  could  support,  in  one  met- 
ropolitan area,  4500  factories,  or  the  twelfth  largest 
manufacturing   center   in   the   country,     and     began

Native   Home   Items  —  for  the   Education  and  Edification  of  the  Young 

(CONDUCTED   BY  AUNT  ELLA    AND  UNCLE  ADLEY  STERLING.) 

The  reception  committee  was  composed  of  the 
larger  girls.  And  how  do  you  suppose  they  elected 
to  array  themselves?  They  came  in  pretty  white 
linen  caps  and  aprons,  such  as  they  wear  in  the 
public  school  cooking  classes,  and  looked  as  neat 
and  sweet  as  daffodils.  We  admitted  the  little  girls 
at  three  o'clock,  and  let  them  recite  their  verses  to 
us  all  in  peace,  with  only  two  boys  present.  You 
know  boys  are  nice  all  right,  but  it  is  safer  to 
fetch  them  in  one  at  a  time,  for  they  are  like  fire- 
crackers— they  want  to  go  off  all  at  once.  Well, 
we  had  a  rainbow  arched  against  the  curtain  in  the 
bay-window,  and  when  the  little  girls  faced  it,*l  de- 
clare they  were  actually  an  improvement  on  the 
original,  carrying  those  bright  colors  in  bands  nround 
their  heads  and  crossed  under  their  chins.  We  had 
a  lovely  time  reciting  the  colors  over  and  over- -red, 
orange,  yellow,  green,  blue,  indigo  and  violet.  Then 
we  had  an  examination  in  French,  to  see  how  many 
of  the  words  the  little  girls  remembered.  It  was 
astonishing  to  hear  them — they  did  so  well  that 
we  had  to  give  prizes  to  the  two  who  stood  last. 
Then  while  they  were  taken  into  the  children's 
library  to  have  their  ice  cream  and  other  refresh- 
ments, the  boys  were  admitted  and  stood  up  tu  see 
how  much  French  they  remembered  of  the  lessons 
given  them  by  the  kind  friend  who  conies  Friday 
afternoons  for  that  purpose  without  money  and 
without  price.  Then  came  the  surprise  of  the  after- 
noon. The  boy  who  nearly  wiggled  himself  out  of 
the  class  the  day  before  by  his  outrageousness,  and 
out  of  the  patience  of  all  of  us  by  his  bad  manners, 
stood  last  and  got  the  prize,  a  bottle  of  perfumery, 
to  take  home  to  his  mother.  His  mother  was  even 
more  bewildered  than  the  rest  of  us.  It  shows  that 
sometimes  you  cannot  tell  who  is  who. 

Then  the  prizes  were  given  for  "REPOSE." 
"What's  that?",  was  the  question  that  went  around. 
I  had  to  explain  that  it  meant  repose  of  manner — 
it  meant  that  when  a  child  came  into  a  house  and 
did  not  kick  the  furniture,  and  did  not  tear  tilings 
to  pieces,  but  made  the  woman  of  the  house  glad 
of  his  presence,  it  showed  that  that  child  had 
"Repose."     So  it  was  left  to  the  children  themselves 

(Continued  on  Page  27,  Column  3.) 


The  Potlatch  and  Rainbow  Party  of  the  Deejers. 

Come  Deejers  all,  and  list  to  me. 
This  world  is  queer  as  queer  can  be, 
But   we   will  work,   and   call   it    "play," 
And  sing,  and   laugh,  the   livelong  day. 

OR  A  LONG  TIME  WE  HAD  BEEN 
talking  about  the  Potlatch.  What  is 
a  Potlatch?  It  is  a  custom  that  the 
Alaskans  have  of  inviting  their 
friends  to  come  to  a  house-picnic, 
and  every  fellow  of  them  carries 
home  a  prize.  When  it  is  over,  the 
generous  chieftain  has  nothing  left, 
because  he  has  given  away  all  of  his 
fine  blankets,  arrow-heads,  knives, 
hatchets,  fishhooks,  baskets  and 
canoes.  But  he  has  had  the  fun  of 
feeling  mighty  grand  for  one  day  in  his  life,  and 
after  that  he  can  go  and  visit  his  friends  and  stay 
as  long  as  he  likes.  Well,  we  decided  to  have  a  sort 
of  imitation  Potlatch  for  the  faithful  Deejers.  I 
wanted  to  do  something  in  memory  of  my  own 
child's  birthday,  even  though  she  passed  from  earth 


five  years  ago.  What  better  could  I  do  than  to 
have  the  Potlatch  on  this  day,  and  give  away  some 
of  the  little  things,  which  once  were  hers,  to  the 
children  who  now  come  to  make  my  home  glad  with 
their  presence?  When  they  tried  to  come  in  on 
Thursday  night,  I  told  them  I  was  hard  at  work 
trying  to  get  the  house  swept  for  the  Potlatch,  so 
they  could  not  come  in. 

(rLet  us  do  the  sweeping,"  cried  the  Deejers. 
Presto  change!  it  was  done  in  a  trice.  Three  women 
called  at  this  most  inopportune  moment.  We  sat 
in  the  library  in  peace,  and  talked  ahout  the  past, 
the  present,  and  the  future.  And  those  Deejers 
hushed  themselves,  effaced  themselves,  suppressed 
themselves,  and  played  games  under  their  br?ath  in 
the  front  parlor  as  if  they  were  so  many  fairies. 
And  when  all  was  over,  one  of  them,  a  boy,  offered 
to  take  the  visitor  of  three-score  and  eighteen  years 
to  the  cars.  Was  not  that  beautiful?  He  was  a 
wise  Deejer.  and  knew  that  she  was  in  reality  a 
fairy  godmother  in  disguise.  For  she  was  Airs. 
Cabanis,  the  mother  of  Judge  Cabanis.  and  she  had 
had  nine  sons  and  one  daughter  that  she  had  raised 
for  California  from  the  early  days.  Tn  other  words, 
she  was  a  really  and  truly  Pioneer  Mother,  such 
as  we  deem  worthy  of  putting  into  bronze.  Then 
why  not  be  polite  and  gentle  to  her  while  she  is 
still  alive?  The  next  morning  a  flock  of  Deejers 
arrived  early  to  help  me  finish  the  work.  They  ran 
errands  and  did  all  sorts  of  things.  I  am  a  great 
believer  in  having  bright  colors  around,  so  I  decided 
to  dress  the  seven  faithful  fairies  to  represent  the 
rainbow.  At  this  news  the  boys  looked  blank. 
"What  are  we  going  to  wear?"  they  said,  it  is 
natural  for  boys  to  want  to  be  gay,  too.  Why  not? 
So  I  told  them  that  the  boys  of  Bush  street  should 
have  green  sashes  and  turbans,  and  the  boys  of 
Pine  street  arrayed  in  yellow  ones — those  being  the 
colors  chosen  to  represent  our  State  on  Admission 
Day.  But  the  boy  who  is  studying  five  languages 
I  dressed  up  in  sashes  of  yellow  and  green  and 
reddish  brown  and  put  red  velvet  Spanish  sleeves 
on  him.  in  addition  to  his  yellow  silk  turban,  which 
was  once  worn  by  a  Pundit  named  Virchand  Ghandi, 
one  of  the  greatest  men  I  ever  met,  yet  as  simple 
as  a  child.

At  a  meeting  of  Sierra  Madre  Parlor.  No.  2.'J."). 
N.S.G.W.,  of  which  Nathan  P.  Bundy  was  a  charter 
member.  October  lllh.  the  following  resolutions 
were    unanimously    adopted :

(Clarence    M.    Hunt,    Managing    Editor.) 

Many  constitutional  amendments  will  appear  on 
the  ballot,  November  8th,  but  there  are  two,  in  par- 
ticular, which  should  be  voted  upon — and  voted  upon 
favorably — by  every  citizen  of  California  who  is  proud 
of   the   State.     These    are 

Senate  Constitutional  Amendment,  No.  52. 
Assembly   Constitutional  Amendment,   No.   33. 

There  is  nothing  in  the  way  of  a  "joker"  in  either 
of  these  proposed  amendments — they  simply  make 
it  possible  for  Californians  to  go  before  Congress  as 
representatives  of  a  UNITED  STATE,  and  lay  our 
claims  before  the  national  body .  for  the  Panama 
Pacific  Exposition. 

Every  loyal  Californian  wants  to  see  San  Francis- 
co best  New  Orleans  in  the  contest  for  this  exposition. 
No  loyal  Californian,  no  matter  what  his  feel- 
ings toward  San  Francisco,  will  vote  against  these 
amendments  because  they  appear  to  favor  that  city, 
for,  in  reality,  the  Panama  Exposition  will  be  as 
much  a  benefit  to  every  other  section  of  California 
as  to  San  Francisco. 

The  defeat  of  these  amendments  means  the  loss  of 
the  Panama  Exposition  to  California.  They  will  be 
defeated  unless  you,  Mr.  Voter,  make  it  your  busi- 
ness to  vote  for  them.  Don't  think  your  vote  is 
unnecessary,  for  it  is  just  such  procedure  that  has 
killed  many  good  propositions,  and  will  mean  the 
defeat  of  these  amendments. 

Every  indifferent  citizen  of  the  State  will  not 
vote  upon  these,  or  any  other,  amendments.  It  will, 
therefore,  take  a  large  vote  to  carry  them,  so  every 
man  whose  State  pride  is  greater  than  his  indif- 
ference should  not  fail  to  vote  for  them. 

There  is  often  a  disposition  on  the  part  of  voters 
to  not  vote  on  constitutional  amendments.  This 
should  not  be  the  rule  as  regards  these  amendments, 
as  they  mean  much  to  California.  When  you  go 
into  the  voting  booth  look  for  oenate  Constitutional 
Amendment,  >Jo.  52  and  Assembly  Constitutional 
Amendment,  No.  33,  and  vote  in  favor  of  the  passage 
of  both. 

*         *         * 

The  fostering  of  our  home  industries  should  be 
the  special  care  of  every  Californian,  for  upon  it 
rests  the  future  industrial  progress,  or  lack  of 
progress,  of  our  State. 

And  this  fostering  should  not  rest  with  the 
passage  of  resolutions  favoring  home  industries,  but 
should  assume  a  more  substantial  form.  It  costs 
money  to  run  factories,  and  the  men  employed  there- 
in will  not  accept  resolutions  as  compensation  for 
their  labor.  t 

It  has  always  seemed  strange  to  us  why  so  many 
organizations  have  been  formed  to  encourage  the 
establishment  of  industries  within  our  State,  and 
noi  a  single  one,  until  the  formation  of  the  Home 
Industry  League,  to  educate  the  people  up  to  the 
use  of  the  products  of  those  industries. 

The  Orders  of  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters 
have,  through  their  Grand  Parlors,  endorsed  the  ob- 
jects of  the  Home  Industry  League,  which  has  for 
its  purpose  tbe  building  up  of  our  home  industries, 
and   have  resolved   to  purchase  home-made   goods. 

Our  Orders  cannot  enter  upon  a  more  commend- 
able crusade  than  that  which  has  for  its  ultimate 
object    not  only   the  bringing  of   more   industries  to

To   the   Editor— Dear    Sir: 
Admission  Day  celebration,  and  it  surely  was  some 
pumpkins. 

And  the  big  parade,  September  9th,  wouldn't 
that  make  some  of  our  adopted  sons  and  daugh- 
ters sit  up  and  take  notice? 

And  just,  to  think,  it  happened  in  our  dearly- 
beloved  State  of  California,  and  was  pulled  off 
by  our  own  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters. 

Wasn't  you  there?  Well,  take  it  from  me,  you 
missed  something  that  it  will  require  some  years 
to  eclipse. 

Anyone  who  was  there  won't  soon  forget  the 
parade,  especially  if  he  took  part  in  it,  for  every 
time  he  thinks  of  boils  on  his  feet,  his  memory 
will  revert  to  the  four  hours  he  stood  in  line,  plus 
the    six   hours    he   piked. 

And  that  reminds  me.  Has  anybody  here  found 
the  whyfore  of  the  tiresome  delays?  I  have  been 
looking  for  it,  and  found  several  reasons  advanced, 
but  none  of  them  sounded  good  to  me.  The  most 
plausible  one,  however,  appears  to  be  mismanage- 
ment. 

I  heard  a  great  deal  of  fun  poked  at  Stanford 
Parlor's  water-wagon,  but,  believe  me,  before  the 
parade  was  over,  the  members  of  Stanford  were 
universally  envied.  Why  couldn't  76  have  given  us 
a  hunch? 

And  say,  a  man  standing  on  the  sidewalk  said: 
"Why  do  they  have  a  queen?  Did  California  ever 
have  one?"  The  stranger  was  referred  to  the 
finance  committee  of  the  festival. 

One  member  from  a  country  Parlor  asked  me 
what  the  duties  of  a  reception  committee  were. 
From  what  I  had  seen,  I  suggested  that  this  par- 
ticular reception  committee  was  evidently  detailed 
to  follow  the  queen,  as  it  didn't  receive  any  of  the 
numerous  excursions  but,  wherever  the  queen  was, 
there  also  was  the  reception  committee,  or  at  least 
the  main  part  of  it. 

But  say,  laugh?  I  nearly  split  my  sides  laugh- 
ing at  one  of  the  Native  Son  grand  officers.  And 
at  the  same  time,  I  was  disgusted.  He  was  making 
the  rounds  visiting  Parlors,  and  incidentally 
dropped  around  to  a  San  Francisco  Parlor  that  was 
putting  on  some  special  airs  in  the  St.  Francis.  He 
didn't  more  than  land,  however,  when  from  one 
side  came  the  cry,  "Show  your  tickets,"  and  from 
another,  "Don't  block  the  way,"  while  from  be- 
hind, the  strong  arm  of  a  blue-coat  pressed  him 
into  moving.  He  didn't  have  an  "invite,"  you  see, 
so  he  couldn't  gain  the  "Eldorado." 

After  witnessing  this  turndown  of  a  grand  officer 
guest  by  a  Parlor  that  was  among  the  hosts,  I 
beat  it,  and  wended  my  weary  way  to  the  Palace, 
where  I  was  greeted  with  a  two-handed  complaint. 
Two  members  from  the  northern  part  of  the  State 
accosted  me  with,  'T  thought  we  were  invited 
here  to  be  tbe  guests  of  the  San  Francisco  Par- 
lors?" I  coincided  with  their  thought,  but  after 
what  I  had  just  witnessed  I  ventured  no  further 
opinion.  "Well,"  they  went  on,  "we  were  just 
refused  admission  to  that  Parlor's  (pointing  to  an- 
other San  Franicsto  Parlor  with  headquarters  at 
the  rear  of  the  main  lobby)  headquarters  because 
we  didn't  have  an  invitation."  I  felt  very  grate- 
ful for  this  information,  as  I  was  headed  toward 
the  "Pacific,"  wherein  many  a  disconsolate  soul  has 
drowned  his  troubles. 


a  warm  reception  ?  The  day  was  one  of  the 
grandest  ever  witnessed  by  myself  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. I  remarked  upon  this  to  several  friends,  and 
what  do  you  think  one  said?  Well,  he  replied: 
"It's  a  darned  good  thing  something  was  warm, 
as  in  all  my  Admission  Day  exjjerience  I  never 
saw  such  a  cool  reception  on  the  part  of  our 
hosts!" 

I  was  disappointed  that  one  of  the  best  features 
provided  for  the  parade  by  the  festival  committee 
didn't  appear.  You,  of  course,  didn't  see  it,  so 
I'll  tell  you  about  it:  An  old-style  hotel  buss, 
with  a  long  seat  running  the  full  length  of  each 
side,  that  had  done  service  in  1849,  was  graciously 
supplied  the  Native  Sons  grand  officers,  in  which 
to  appear  in  the  parade.  But  when  they  got  to 
the  place  of  assembling  for  the  parade,  and  saw 
that  the  grand  president  had  been  supplied  with  a 
newly-painted,  rubber-tired  hack,  they  struck,  and 
refused  to  accept  the  committee's  offering.  I 
heard  they  were  told  to  take  that  or  nothing,  but 
standing  as  a  union  they  stood  pat,  and  the  old 
curiosity  didn't  get  in  the  parade.  Ah,  a  thought! 
Perhaps  that  grand  officer's  strike  was  the  cause 
of  the  delay  in  getting  the  parade  started.  You 
know  a  union  strike  delayed  us  in  Sacramento  five 
years  ago. 

In  closing,  I  want  to  say  that,  with  the  dis- 
agreeable features  above  related  thrown  in,  the 
1910  Admission  Day  celebration  was  a  grand  suc- 
cess, and  a  great  majority  of  the  Native  Son  and 
Native  Daughter  Parlors  in  San  Francisco  were 
ideal  hosts  and  dispensed  hospitality  with  the 
lavish  hand  of  genuine  Californians. 

It  is  .an  easy  matter  to  find  fault,  and  the  mis- 
comings  of  Parlors  and  the  committee  that  had 
the  celebration  in  hand,  herein  related,  are  not  per- 
petuated in  type  for  any  ulterior  motive,  but 
purely  with  the  intent  of  guiding  the  actions  of 
those  who  will  arrange  future  Admission  Day  cele- 
brations. 

This  was  the  first  celebration  I  ever  attended 
where,  during  the  parade  countermarch,  enthusi- 
asm of  the  marchers  was  not  at  its  height.  Do 
you  know  why?  Because  the  visiting  Parlors  had 
not  been  enthused,  upon  arival  at  the  celebration 
scene,  with  lively  music  and  the  handshakes  of  the 
reception  committee,  as  has  always  been  customary. 

The  grand  officers  did  not  visit,  in  a  body,  the 
several  Parlor  Headquarters  in  San  Francisco,  as 
nas  heretofore  been  their  custom.  Do  you  know 
why?  Because  several  grand  officers,  for  some  un- 
accountable reason,  had  not  been  favored  with  the 
special  invitations  of  a  few  Parlors,  and  did  not 
wish  to  take  the  chances  of  being  turned  down 
at  any. 

I  have  heard  many  oral,  and  received  many  writ- 
ten, complaints  from  all  over  the  State  regarding 
the  treatment  accorded  visiting  members  by  some 
of  the  San  Francisco  Parlors.  To  set  them  out  in 
type,   however,   would  do   our  Order  an  injustice. 

But   let   every    Parlor   in   the   State   profit    by    this 
Admission    Day's    experiences,    and    when    acting    as 
host    on     like     occasions,     either     have     the     latch- 
string  out  or  keep  your  house  in  darkness. 
For  the  Good  of  the  Cause,

our  State,  but  as  well  the  encouragement  of  those 
industries  now  established  by  a  use  of  their  products. 
This  action  will,  no  doubt,  meet  with  opposition 
from  some  quarters,  but  if  we  are  really  concerned 
in  California's  progress  and  greatness,  we  will  use 
every  honest  means  at  our  command  to  bring  about 
a  general  demand  in  California  for  California-made 
goods. 

Let  us  put  the  united  strength  of  our  organizations 
back  of  this  purpose,  and  so  encourage,  through  pur- 
chase of  their  products,  those  industries  now  here, 
that  others  will  flock  in.  Let  every  member  demand 
goods  bearing  the  "Made  in  California"  label,  and 
see  how  quickly  merchants  will  lay  in  a  stock.  Just 
as  good  goods  are  manufactured  here  as  elsewhere. 
Then,  why  not  California  products  for  California  chil- 
dren?    Ask  yourself,  and  act  accordingly.

Mark  Twain's  Speeches. 
BOOK  \\  HUM  siioi  i.D  BE  OF  I  \ 
usual  interest  to  people  of  this  Coaaf 
is  "Mark  Twain's  Speeches,"  which 
has  jusl  been  brought  oui  In  an 
Eastern  publishing  house.  The  upon 
in;.-  pages  contain  a  most  excellent 
pori  rail  .it"  this  beloved  \\  riter.  07m. 
Dean  Bowell,  in  a  shori  introduction, 
explains  the  method  and  manner 
used  by  Mr.  Clemens  in  presenting 
his  speeches,  for  Mr.  Howell  eon 
sidered  him  a  great  actor,  as  well  as 
a  greal  author.  The  subjects  discussed  by  Mr. 
Clemens  are  many  and  varied,  covering  a  period  of 
time  from  1872  until  shortly  before  his  death.  The 
true  father  and  mother  will  read  with  int. Test  Mr, 
I  lemens'  response  to  the  toast,  "The  Babies — as 
they  com  fori  us  in  our  sorrows,  let  us  Dot  forget 
them  in  our  festivities."  For  genuine  laugh  pro- 
vokers, selecl  the  address,  delivered  at  a  social  meet- 
ing of  literary  men,  having  for  its  subject  "Cats 
and  Candy,"  and  a  story  at  a  billiard  tourney,  en- 
titled "Billiards."  Then,  too,  one  derives  much  pleas- 
ure from  reading  his  address  given  at  a  dinner  at 
Delmonico's  t"  celebrate  his  seventieth  birthday.  He 
vividly  describes  his  first  birthday,  and  then  says: 
"It's  a  long  stretch  between  that  first  birthday 
speech  and  this  one.  That  was  my  cradle  song,  and 
this  is  my  swan  snug.  I  suppose." 

This  is  a  most  excellent  volume  to  have  on  hand 
for  use  when  the  brain  has  become  weary  of  the 
arduousness  of  this  strenuous  life  and  demands  re- 
laxation. Henry  Van  Dyke  once  said  of  Mr. 
Clemens,  "A  man  whose  humor  has  put  a  girdle  of 
light  around  the  globe  and  whose  sense  of  humor 
has  been  an  example  for  all  five  continents."  To 
possess  "Mark  Twain's  Speeches,"  is  to  insure  your- 
self of  always  having  at  hand  something  that  shall 
highh  season  your  graver  reading.  That  the  book 
will  meet  with  ready  sale  on  this  Coast  there  is 
every  assurance. 


The  Emigrant  Trail. 
The  story  of  how  our  forefathers  crossed  the 
plains  to  California  will  never  grow  old;  in  fact, 
it  almost  seems  that,  as  the  lapse-  of  time  becomes 
greater,  the  romance  of  it  all  grips  the  heart  strings 
with    a    tinner   grasp,   and   we   long   to   hear  another 

phase   of   t  he   story. 

Cera  Id  ine  Bonner,  therefore,  exercised  good  judg- 
ment when  she  decided  to  write  a  story  of  "'iiie 
Emigrant  Trail."  The  contents  of  the  book  arc 
divided  into  live  parts — "The  Prairie."  "The  River," 
"The  Mountains."  "The  Desert,"  "The  Promised 
Land."  It  is  an  interesting  and  happy  little  party 
of  live  who  start  from  Independence  for  California, 
"the  recently  acquired  strip  of  territory  that  lay 
along  the  continent's  western  rim,  a  place  of  per- 
petual sunshine  where  everybody  had  a  chance  and 
then-  was  no  malaria."  The  time  is  before  the  dis- 
covery of  gold,  or  rather,  before  it  was  known  to 
Easterners. 

Dr.  Gillespie  was  making  the  trip  to  California  in 
Search  of  health.  lb-  was  accompanied  by  his  daugh- 
ter. Susan,  and  "Daddy  John,"  the  old  servant.  They 
were  from  New  "i  ork  and  had  planned  to  meet  a 
large  party  of  their  fellow  townsmen  at  Inde- 
pendence. Imt  to  their  dismay  the  party  had  gone 
on  without  them.  By  chance  they  had  met  with 
David  Crystal  and  George  Leffingwell,  Westerners 
who  were  also  planning  to  cross  the  plains  to  Cali- 
fornia, so  it  was  but  a  short  time  until  all  plans 
w.te  completed.  Our  acquaintance  with  most  of 
these  characters  ripens  into  an  intimate  friendship 
very  soon.  The  devotion  Dr.  Gillespie  and  his  daugh- 
ter have  for  each  other  is  sonl  satisfying,  and  it  is 
indeed  a  pleasure  to  know  that  "Daddy  John"  looks 
after  each  so  carefully.  David  very  slowly  comes 
into  the  story,  but  after  a  time  one  is  made  to  see 
that  he  is  to  figure  largely  in  the  love  theme  which 
lias    its   place   on   "The   Emigrant    Trail." 

The  author  evidently  has  made  a  deep  study  of  her 
Subject,  for  into  the  story  is  woven  in  minute  de- 
tail a  1  most  c\  t-r\  incident  that  could  possibly  have 
given  either  joy  or  sorrow.  The  country  through 
whi.h  they  traverse  is  well  described.  The  hard 
ships  they  endured  are  indelibly  stamped  on  the 
reader's  memory.  Birth,  marriage,  death,  each  has 
its  place.  Indian  troubles,  murder,  thirst,  too,  ar^ 
there.  While  oti  the  way.  there  are  those  who  join 
I  lie  party  for  a  time  and  then  take  other  routes. 
but  on.-  of  these  remains  through  the  entire  journey, 
for  he.  too,  plays  in  the  game  of  love!  This  is

On  the  Sunset  Shore. 
Joseph  W.  Door  has  just  recently  had  published  a 
book  of  poems,  entitled  "On  the  Sunset  Shore."  It 
is  composed  of  one  hundred  and  two  short  poems,  of 
which  twentj  live  relate  to  the  peculiarly  interesting 
and  attractive  features  of  the  Pacific  Coast,  includ- 
ing Alaska.  British  Columbia,  Washington.  Oregon 
and  California,  on  both  sides  of  the  Cascade  and 
Coast  .Mountains.  Then  there  is  an  epic  in  fourteen 
parts  on  "The  Oregon  Trail."  and  a  prose  rhapsody, 
"Paradise  Forgot."  in  seven  divisions,  depicting  the 
beauty  features  of  the  Pacific  Coast  visited  by  the 
author  The  book  also  contains  one  hundred  classical 
views  of  Pacific  Coast  scenery,  in  groups  represent- 
ing these  various  sections.  In  another  place  in  these 
columns  is  reproduced  "The  Harp  of  the  Sands."  It 
is  a  bit  of  beautiful  descriptive  verse. 

WESTERN  LITERARY  NOTES. 

.Many  ( 'alifornians  have  followed  with  interest  our 
very  own  playrights.  It  has  not  been  long  since 
we  rejoiced  with  Richard  Walton  Tully  over  the 
success  of  his  play.  "The  Rose  of  the  Rancho." 
Later  Herbert  Bashford's  "Running  for  Governor," 
a  delightful  little  comedy,  furnished  amusement  to 
crowded  houses.  Now  we  are  all  more  than  pleased 
to  know  that  Eleanor  Gates  has  also  contributed 
a  play,  "Justice  of  Gideon,"  which  was  booked  to 
appear  in  New  York  during  the  present  month.

The  Pacific  Coast  Woman's  Press  Assocation. 
which  will  hold  its  opening  day  in  the  near  future, 
has  planned  a  "William  Keith  day/'  at  which  an 
exhibit  will  be  held  of  several  canvases  by  this  artist. 
A  talk  on  "The  Artist  and  the  Man"  will  be  given 
by  Charles  Keeler  of  Berkeley  and  by  ex-Mayor  E. 
R.  Taylor  of  San  Francisco.  Poetical  tributes  to 
Keith  will  he  read,  among  which  will  be  a  poem  by 
Edward  Rowland  Sill.  Favorite  Scotch  ballads  of 
the  artist  will  be  sung  by  Mrs.  John  W.  Lewis. 
The  meeting  will  be  presided  over  by  the  new  presi- 
dent.   Miss   fna  Coolbrith.

the  beautiful  Canadian  fishing  camp  of  George  A. 
Weber  of  Stamford,  whose  lakes  and  rivers  include 
fifty  miles  in  the  province  of  Quebec.  In  the  fall 
Dr.  Holder  will  deliver  an  address  before  the  British 
Sea  Anglers'  Society  of  London  and  attend  a  ban-

"My  Mark  Twain"  is  the  title  which  William 
Dean  Howells  has  chosen  for  his  book  of  literary  and 
personal  reminiscences  of  his  life-long  friend. 

Herman  Whitaker's  many  friends  are  eagerly  wait- 
ing for  the  new  book  which  he  has  in  course  of 
preparation.  Whether  his  trip  to  Mexico  was  for 
the  purpose  of  obtaining  more  material  for  this  book, 
or  whether  it  was  for  another  book  entirely,  we 
do  not  know.  At  any  rate,  the  October  Sunset  con- 
tains one  of  his  strong  short  stories.  Arthur  W. 
North,  author  of  "Camp  and  Camino  in  Lower  Cali- 
fornia" and  "Mother  of  California,"  has,  in  the  same 
magazine,  a  most  interesting  article  bearing  the 
heading,    "The    Spirit    of     Idaho." 

"The  Grand  Canyon  of  Arizona;  How  to  See  It," 
is  the  title  of  George  Wharton  James'  latest  book. 
Another  of  his  books  to  appear  during  this  month  is 
entitled  "Heroes  of  California."  His  many  friends 
will  welcome  both  of  these,  for  their  tales  must 
surely    be   of   unusual    interest. 

Jack  London,  author  of  "Martin  Eden."  has  just 
had  published  a  new  novel  entitled  "Burning  Day- 
light." In  this  he  presents  a  new  phase  of  the  love 
of  man  for  woman,  and  shows  in  the  end  that  it

The  Harp  of  the   Sands. 
(By  Joseph  W.   i' 
I  sat  one  night    where   He-   (lowing   tide 

<  lame  in  at  t  he  Golden  I  late, 
And  listened  to  the  restless  sea, 

Though    the    hour    was    growing    late. 

The  earth    was   still   and   the  ocean   .aim, 

The   air    was    soft    and    low. 
And    the    only    thing   that     mad.-   a    sound 

Was  the  creeping  waters'   How. 

A   ship    passed   in   the   dusk    along. 

Like   a    phantom    up    the    bay. 
Its   tall    masts   mirrored    in    the  deep, 
While   it   slipped    in   the  gloom   away 

The    sea    birds   chatd -iv. I    as    I  hej     Mew- 
In    whispering  notes  of   night, 

Or  sat  on  the  bosom   of  the  deep 
When    the    moon    came    into    sight, 

The    porpoise    Bashing    in    and    out 

Far  off  on  the  distant  sea. 
With    all    the   other    ocean    sights, 

Made   an    evening   show    for    me. 

And  so  I  sat  and  listened  to 

The    ocean's    mighty    swells — 
The    story    which    the    sea's    unrest 

Forever    throbbing    tells. 

And  then   I   walked   in   the  soft    moonlight, 

And    listened   to   the    tide, 
As   it   glided   through    the   Golden   Gate 

From   the  ocean   green   and   wide. 

At  last  I  stopped  and  held  my  breath, 

For  a  strain   of  music  came, 
bike    the   wind   through   strings   Aeolian 

Too   sweet    to    have    a    name. 

And  sad  and  low   it    floated  up 
From    the    ocean    dampened    sands. 

Like  a  harp  thrust  out  from  the  hurrying  deep 
And  played  by  spirit  hands. 

I  stood  and  listened  to  the  strains 

I   had   heard  oue   time   before— 
To  the  harp  of  the  sands  played  by  unseen  hands 

In  the  rocks  along  the  shore. 

The   hour   was   right,    for  alone  at   night 

Will   the  sand  harps  ever  play; 
When  the  flowing  tide  begins  to  glide 

Into   the   shadowy   bay. 

I  listened  wrapt  to  the  sad,  sweet  strain, 
For  I  knew  when  the  tide  was  in 

No  more  would  the  sand  harp  play  for  me 
By   the   fingers   soft   unseen. 

Nor  could  I  hear  in  the  daylight  glare 

This   music   of   the   night, 
For  the  glowing  sun  would  soaring  high, 

Give   the   wierd   musicians   fright. 

So  I  drank  my  fill  till  the  music  ceased, 
And  I  knew  I  should  hear  no  more, 

Then   back   to  the  city  I  took  my  way 
Along  the   rock-bound   shore. 

— From   "On   the   Sunset   Shore."

"Mission  Bells,"  a  Love  Tale  of  California 


(Continued   from  October  number.) 

CHAPTER  IV. 

California  Love  Awakened. 


ATHRYN  CAME  HOME  ALL  EN- 
thusiasm  and  rapture  from  her  visit 
to  Half  Moon  Bay.  She  graphically 
described  to  her  delighted  Native  Son 
father  the  remarkably  clear  and  bright 
mind  of  Raymundo  Miramontes  and 
the  courtly  manner  of  the  fine  look- 
ing, stately.,  aristocratic  Don  Pablo 
Vasquez. 

Mr.  Dene  had  always  deplored  what 
he  considered  a  lack  of  appreciation 
in  his  wife  for  things  Californian,  and 
was  secretly  chagrined  over  Kathryn's  broken  en- 
gagement with  young  Beresfbrd,  whom  he  dearly 
loved  as  his  own  boy  and  considered  to  be  one  of  the 
finest  of  California's  stalwart  sons,  but  he  wisely 
asked  no  questions  as  to  the  cause  of  the  quarrel. 

Kathryn  was  a  girl  who  never  did  things  by  halves, 
so  she  put  her  whole  heart  into  the  study  of  Cali- 
fornia's history.  Her  enthusiasm  spread  even  to 
her  mother — to  Mr.  Dene's  satisfaction  and  gratifica- 
tion— and  the  result  was  a  southern  trip  by  Mrs. 
Dene  and  Kathryn,  during  which  the  missions  of 
Monterey,  San  Carlos,  Santa  Barbara,  etc.,  were 
visited. 

In  the  course  of  excavating  incidental  to  the  im- 
provement of  Portsmouth  Square,  San  Francisco,  a 
number  of  rusty  old  muskets  were  exhumed.  Kath- 
ryn rushed  in  search  of  Miss  Keith,  whom  she  found 
dismissing  school,  and  exclaimed:  "Hurry,  Miss 
Keith,  they  have  unearthed  some  old  Spanish 
muskets  at  Portsmouth  Square,  at  what  was  for- 
merly the  site  of  the  old  Spanish  Custom  House.  We 
must  secure  them  for  the  committee  on  historical 
landmarks."  Verily,  Kathryn  had  become  a  thorough 
Californian,  and  her  great  desire  now  was  to  become 
a  member  of  the  Order  of  the  Native  Daughters  of 
the  Golden  West,  and  she  planned  the  formation  of 
a  Parlor  of  her  young  friends.  She  consulted  Miss 
Keith,  an  introduction  to  the  Grand  Secretary,  Miss 
Frakes,  followed,  and  the  result  was  the  forming 
of  the  Portola  Parlor.  The  name  Portola  was  chosen 
in  honor  of  Don  Gaspar  De  Portola,  the  first  Military 
Governor  of  California,  appointed  by  Don  Carlos  III, 
King  of  Spain.  Portola  was  the  first  to  tread  El 
Camino  Eeal  and  was  also  the  discoverer  of  San 
Francisco  Bay,  in  October,  1769. 

On  Sunday,  April  3rd,  a  mission  road  bell  was 
to  be  dedicated  at  San  Rafael,  in  front  of  the  site 
of  the  old  Mission  San  Rafael  Archangel,  which 
marks  the  spot  between  Mission  Dolores,  San  Fran- 
cisco, and  the  Mission  San  Francisco  de  Solano. 
Kenneth  Beresford  and  Phillip  Randall,  as  members 
of  El  Camino  Real  Association,  were  present,  stand- 
ing beside  Grand  Trustee  Thomas  J.  Lennon.  The 
members  of  the  Mt.  Tamalpais  Parlor  of  Native 
Sons  were  there  in  a  body.  It  was  an  ideal  spring 
day,  and  the  handsome  Marin  County  Court  House, 
surrounded  by  a  square  of  velvety  lawn,  together 
with  the  church  of  St.  Rafael  and  the  beautifully 
shaded  streets,  made  an  appropriate  spot  for  the 
dedication.  By  the  stump  of  an  aged  pear  tree,  the 
only  historical  landmark  remaining  of  the  mission 
founded  in  1817,  stood  a  group  of  Native  Daughters, 
and  with  them  Kathryn  Dene,  darkeyed  and  beauti- 
ful, dressed  entirely  in  white. 

Superior  Judge  Thomas  J.  Lennon  was  the  chair- 
man, and  in  concluding  his  remarks,  said:  t(We  are 
here  today  to  dedicate  this  bell,  the  gift  of  Mt. 
Tamalpais  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  of  San  Rafael,  which 
is  to  mark  the  historic  road  of  the  Franciscan 
Fathers,  and  be  a  monument  to  the  first  dawn  of 
civilization  in  Northern  California."  Miss  Keith 
spoke  on  the  "King's  Highway." 

By  this  time,  Kenneth  Beresford  had  discovered 
that  the  tall,  beautiful  girl  in  white  was  Kathryn 
Dene.  What  could  it  mean!  His  Kathryn,  his  own 
little  girl,  standing  beside,  and  evidently  on  the 
most  friendly  terms  with,  Grand  President  Lillie. 
Kathryn,  an  interested  spectator  to  the  dedication  of 
a  mission  road  bell!  What  did  it  portend?  Was 
anything  the  matter  with  his  eyesight?  These 
were  the  thoughts  that  rushed  through  his  mind. 
Kathryn,  however,  had  long  ago  discovered  that  the 
tall  Native  Son  beside  Judge  Lennon  was  Kenneth 
Beresford,  and  wisely  kept  her  eyes  off  that  part 
of   the   platform. 

The  unveiling  of  the  bell  by  Stephen  Richardson, 
the  oldest  Native  Son  of  California,  was  now  in 
order.  Then  the  brown-clad  friar,  Father  Maximillian 


Romance  and  Reality 

in  Serial  Form 

(BY  ANNIE  L.  ADAIR.) 

Newman,  stepped  forward  with  two  little  acolytes, 
and  dedicated  the  bell  of  San  Rafael  Archangel.  As 
he  raised  his  hand  in  blessing,  the  chairman  pulled 
the  clapper  to  sound  the  sweet  chimes,  and  a  cheer 
broke  from  the  audience.  Thus  was  appropriately 
dedicated  the  bell  at  the  twentieth  mission,  the 
next  to  the  last  of  the  chain. 

As  Kenneth  Beresford,  Phillip  Randall  and  other 
participants  walked  down  the  street,  Kenneth  heard 
not  a  word  that  was  being  said  in  the  conversation. 
His  eyes  were  fixed  on  a  tall,  slender  girl — clad  all 
in  white,  her  wonderful  golden  hair  gleaming  under 
a  large  picture  hat — who,  with  other  women,  was 
wending  her  way  to  the  railroad  station.  In  his 
heart,  the  man  was  saying:  "Kathryn,  my  own 
little  girl!  I  am  so  proud  of  you.  Before  going 
back  to  the  oil  fields  I  will  interview  Miss  Keith. 
Kathryn,  dear,  I  hope  you  won't  be  too  long  in 
sending  the  written  message,  for  the  waiting  is 
lonely  and  weary." 

Speeding  toward  San  Francisco  on  the  train,  near 
the  verdure-clad  hills  at  the  foot  of  lofty  Tamalpais 
the  heart  of  the  girl  was  singing  for  joy  and  say- 
ing: "Kenneth,  dear,  be  patient  a  little  longer.  I 
am  becoming  a  broader-minded,  better  girl — just  such 
a  girl  as  you  need  for  a  wife — but  the  waiting,  al- 
though I  deserve  it,  is  dreary  without  you." 


CHAPTER   V. 
Kathryn   Becomes   Private    Secretary. 

Miss  Keith  decided  to  spend  her  Easter  vacation 
at  Paso  Robles,  and  while  there  gather  data  per- 
taining to  San  Miguel  Mission,  and  the  surrounding 
country,  which  was  in  early  days  an  important 
Spanish  grant.  Kathryn,  the  mission  enthusiast,  de- 
cided to  accompany  her.  Before  leaving  San  Fran- 
cisco, Phillip  Randall,  lying  full  length  on  a  cot 
mattress,  and  suffering  from  inflammatory  rheuma- 
tism, was  put  into  the  baggage  car  of  the  train.  The 
man  was  hardly  able  to  move  either  his  arms  or 
lower  limbs,  and  was  going  to  Paso  Robles  for  his 
health.  He  was  head  bookkeeper  for  Beresford,  Sr., 
and  he  and  Kenneth  were  friends  and  also  co-workers 
in  El  Camino  Real  Association.  Although  knowing 
Kenneth  Beresford  well,  he  had  never  met  Miss  Dene, 
and  was  in  utter  ignorance  of  the  fact  that  an  en- 
gagement existed  between  Beresford  and  Miss  Dene, 
and  that  it   was  now  broken. 

As  the  train  sped  on  Miss  Keith,  turning  to  Kath- 
ryn, said:  "Phillip  Randall  is  on  this  train,  in  the 
Daggage  car,  the  victim  of  inflammatory  rheumatism. 
He  is  a  loyal  Native  Son  and  a  good  man,  and  has 
a  wife  and  two  fine  children  in  Oakland.  I  received 
a  letter  from  his  wife,  who  is  a  splendid  woman, 
and  she  couldn't  accompany  him  just  now,  as  she 
has  a  sick  child  to  care  for.  I  will  ask  permission 
of  the  train  official  to  go  in  and  see  him,  and  inquire 
if  we  can  do  anything  for  him.  Do  you  mind  ac- 
companying me,  Kathryn?" 

.  "1  will  be  only  too  glad  to  be  of  use,"  said  Kath- 
ryn. She  had  become  a  truly  unselfish  girl.  Always 
bright  and  beautiful,  lately  she  had  become  ex- 
quisite with  womanly  thought  and  consideration  for 
others,  especially  the  sick  and  needy  To  see  one  in 
pain,  brought  out  all  her  sympathy  and  kindness  of 
heart. 

With  gentle  laughter,  kind  words,  and  little  at- 
tentions, Miss  Keith  and  Kathryn  Dene  brightened 
the  weary  journey  for  the  sick  man.  On  arriving 
atf  the  quaint  but  pretty  town  of  Paso  Robles, 
Phillip  Randall  was  carefully  carried  across  the  city 
park  to  an  hotel. 

To  the  right  of  the  hotel  and  back  towards  the 
hills,  was  a  large  brick  residence,  with  beautifully 
laid  out,  terraced  grounds,  the  pride  of  Paso  Robles. 
An  underground  .tunnel  connects  the  upper  and  the 
lower  gardens,  which  are  divided  by  a  street.  In 
the  brightest  corner  of  the  upper  garden  is  a  small 
observatory,  from  which  a  fine  view  of  the  town  and 
surrounding  country  can  be  obtained.  A  retired  sea 
captain  owned  this  property  and  employed  several 
gardeners  to  keep  the  place  in  order,  and  always 
allowed  the  residents  of  Paso  Robles  to  wander 
there   at   their   pleasure. 

Early  the  next  morning  following  their  arrival, 
Miss  Keith  and  Kathryn  took  their  hot  sulphur 
plunge,  and  as  they  were  standing  at  the  drinking 
fountain,  Kathryn  said:  "I  will  take  a  pitcher  of 
this  sulphur  water  to  Mr.  Randall.  This  is  what 
he  needs." 


They  found  him  siting  in  a  wheeled  chair  in  the 
"sun  room,"  ''Hallo,  good  Samaritan,  what  do  you 
think  of  this?  Don't  I  look  well  in  a  wheeled  chair," 
laughed  he. 

'Ti  cu  seem  delighted  to  see  us,  but  your  tune  will 
change  when  you  see  what  I  have  brought  you  to 
drink.  A  pitcher  of  hot  sulphur  water  from  the 
springs.     Ugh!      It  is   horrid,"   laughed   Kathryn. 

"Never  you  mind,  nothing  can  disgust  me  now. 
A  rheumatic  cripple  gets  used  to  the  worst  kind  of 
concoctions,"  said  Randall,  as  he  drank  the  water 
without  even  a  grimace. 

"Now,  I  am  going  to  be  your  private  secretary," 
said  Kathryn.  "I  am  at  leisure  for  an  hour.  Then 
Miss  Keith  and  I  are  going  to  drive  to  San  Miguel, 
where  we  are  to  be  the  guest  of  the  girls  of  San 
Miguel  Parlor  at  luncheon,  and  in  the  afternoon  will 
visit  the  old  Mission  St.  Michael."  Kathryn  wrote, 
for  the  crippled  man.  a  letter  to  his  wife  and  babies, 
and  business  letters  to  his  employers,  but  never 
winced  as  he  dictated  a  letter  to  Kenneth  Beresford, 
although  the  rich  color  surged  to  her  cheeks  and 
spread  over  the  white  brow  and  throat.  All  un- 
conscious of  the  tumult  in  the  girl's  heart,  the  man 
continued:  "Kenneth  Beresford  is  a  man  worth 
knowing.  Miss  Dene.  He  is  an  enthusiastic,  patriotic- 
Native  Son,  and  such  a  loyal  friend.  He  has  invested 
my  savings  for  me  in  oil  lands,  and  if  the  deal  pushes 
through,  as  he  expects,  between  his  kindness  and 
the  curative  waters  of  Paso  Robles,  I  will  be  on  my 
feet  in  more  ways  than  one." 

The  girl  became  radiant.  Her  expression  of  pride 
and  joy  at  her  lover's  name  added  an  exquisite  love- 
liness to  her  beautiful  face,  yet  quickly  to  recover 
herself,  she  left  the  room  and  was  back  with  a  pile 
of  magazines  for  the  perusal  of  the  sick  man. 
"Thanks,  Miss  Dene,''  said  the  grateful  invalid. 
"This  afternoon  1  am  to  go  two  miles  out  of  town 
to  the  hot  sulphur  mud  springs  and  take  my  first 
mud  bath,  and  I  am  in  high  anticipation  of  the 
treat.  Just  think  of  it!  Makes  me  think  of  the 
mud-pie  days  of  my  boyhood." 

Miss  Keith  and  Kathryn  enjoyed  the  ride  to  San 
Miguel  under  the  spreading  oaks  for  which  Paso 
Robles  is  famous.  "El  Paso  Des  Robles  (the  pass- 
ing through  the  oaks),  how  aptly  the  Spanish  name 
suits   this   place,"   said  Kathryn. 


CHAPTER    VI. 
The  "Wishing  Chair." 

At  San  Miguel  they  were  met,  cordially  greeted, 
and  taken  to  luncheon,  and  in  the  afternoon  visited 
San  Miguel  Mission,  where  the  resident  priest 
showed  them  through  the  church  and  the  mission. 
Miss  Keith  had  secured  the  services  of  a  skilled 
amateur  photographer,  who  gladly  undertook  to  take 
pictures  of  different  views  and  parts  of  the  mission. 

The  ancient  church  of  St.  Michael's,  at  San  Miguel 
Mission,  has  possibly  a  bit  more  of  interest  than 
most  of  the  others.  It  is  the  best  preserved  of  all 
the  California  missions — in  fact,  the  only  one  which 
is  today  exactly  the  same  as  when  first  built,  in 
1797.  Even  the  walls  surrounding  the  place,  though 
in  ruins,  give  an  accurate  idea  of  the  extent  of 
the  property  connected  with  the  church  itself,  it 
embraces  about  forty  acres.  In  the  legends  of  this 
mission   there  are  both   poetry   and   humor. 

Standing  in  the  shade  of  the  long  colonnades  of 
the  church,  the  attetnion  of  the  visitors  was  drawn 
to  two  huge  old  chairs  fashioned  of  massive  oak  and 
beautifully  carved  leather.  The  wooden  frames  of 
these  ekairs  are  as  firm  as  when  first  fitted  together, 
but  the  leather  parts  are  badly  worn,  although  the 
intricacy  and  beauty  of  the  hand  worked  design, 
wrought  long  ago,  could  still  be  seen. 

"Would  you  please  tell  us  the  legends  of  these 
'Wishing  Chairs  V  "  asked  Miss  Keith  of  their  guide, 
and "  the  kindly  father  repeated  the  following  ro- 
mantic tales:  "They  are  the  famous  'Wishing 
chairs,' "  he  said,  "one  of  which  was  brought  from  the 
ruins  of  San  Antonio  Mission  along  with  some  old 
paintings  and  similar  relics.  This  chair  which  is  in 
the  best  state  of  preservation  possesses  miraculous 
powers.  Any  one  seating  himself  therein  might 
formulate  one  wish — any  of  the  numberless  things 
for  which  the  heart  of  man  might  long — and  be  cer- 
tain of  its  fulfillment.  It  was  famed  far  and  wide, 
and  people  traveled  many  miles  that  they  might 
rest  in  it,  and  wish  for  the  attainment  of  their 
heart's  desire,  and  tradition  has  -it,  that  these  de- 
sires were  duly  fulfilled.  But  the  other  chair,  that 
of  San  Miguel,  was  more  restricted  in  its  power. 
Its  occupant  could  wish  for  only  one  thing — the 
winning  of  the  sweetheart  of  his  choice.  As  you 
see,  the  bottom  of  this  chair  is  entirely  gone,  and

e  would  have  done  as  well  ;is  either 


of  them.  \i  I  nion  bar  we  were  comfortably  housed 
For  i h«'  expected  rain}  season.  It  rained  the  first 
mi-Iii  of  our  arrival,  but  cleared  off  in  the  morning, 
ami  there  was  no  more  rain  for  three  months  and  a 
half,  or  until  the  first  of  March,  and  even  then  it 
did  not  rain  enough  to  give  the  miners  sufficient 
water  to  wash  the  dirt  they  had  accumulated  dur- 
ing the  hot  summer  months  preparatory  for  washing 
when  the  rains  should  come  and  furnish  water  for 
working  the  dry  ravines.  Two  greater  contrast-;  in 
rainfall  have  never  been  recorded  during  my  eon- 
tinuous  residence  of  sixty-one  years  in  California, 
than  those  which  occurred  during  the  winters  of  '4!) 
mill    '."ill   and    '50   and    '51. 

Wc  had  not  Keen  at  Union  bar  more  than  three 
days  when,  late  one  evening,  a  man  packing  his 
blanket  s  and  looking  tired  out,  asked  if  he 
could  have  shelter  with  us  during  the  night. 
"Certainly,"  said  Oneille,  "come  in."  Depositing  his 
blankets  on  the  floor — it  was  a  dirt  floor,  but  had 
been  well  kept  by  sprinkling  and  sweeping  every 
day— and  taking  a  seat  by  the  fire,  we  asked  him 
it'  he  would  like  to  have  something  to  eat.  Reply- 
ing that  he  would,  Oneille  set  out  the  cold  corned 
beef,  a  plate  of  beans,  bread,  and  some  other  edibles, 
which  he  seemed  to  enjoy.  After  satisfying  his 
appetite,  he  resumed  his  seat  by  the  fire  and  be- 
came  quite  communicative,  telling  how  he  had  lost 
four  hundred  dollars  in  the  division  of  gold  he  and 
his  three  partners  had  taken  out  of  the  mine  they 
had  found.  Captain  Al lender  wanted  to  know  how 
It  happened.  "Why,"  said  he,  "the  pieces  were  so 
large  that  it  was  impossible  to  make  an  equal  divi- 
sion, and  I  got  the  small  pile."  "What  became  of 
your  partners?"  he  was  asked.  "They  went  to  San 
Francisco  and  took  passage  on  the  first  vessel  that 
sailed  for  Australia,"  he  answered. 

During  the  evening  we  learned  from  the  man  that 
his  name  was  Stodard.  a  native  of  Australia,  and 
that  he  was  one  of  the  first  to  sail  for  California 
on  the  receipt  of  news  of  the  rich  gold  discoveries 
here,  and  was  the  discoverer  of  the  mine  from  which 
he  and  his  partners  took  out  the  large  nuggets 
that  could  not  be  divided.  Such  was  the  story  of 
this  imaginative  man.  told  with  all  the  candor  and 
sincerity  that  a  truthful  man  could  relate  an  event. 
Aft er  1  irea k fa st  the  next  morning  our  guest  left, 
strong  in  the  faith  that  he  would  yet  find  Gold 
Lake. 

About  the  first  of  December,  1850,  Captain  Thomas 
Bond  of  Carlisle,  Illinois,  an  old  acquaintance,  hav- 
ing just  crossed  the  plains  during  the  summer  and 
learning  our  whereabouts,  paid  us  a  visit,  and  a  few 
days  later  Charles  Delisle,  a  nephewr  of  Oneille's 
put  in  an  appearance,  both  looking  for  a  place  where 
they  could  winter  and  mine.  They  were  invited  to 
share  our  comfortable  and  commodious  quarters  for 
the  winter;  we  would  have  one  mess  and  one  purse, 
and  in  tins  way  the  five  of  us  messed,  working  on 
tin1  bars  and  hanks  with  rockers,  pan,  and  crevicing 
spoon,  until  about  the  first  of  March,  1851,  when 
the   first    rain    made    its   appearance. 

It  was  now  up  to  each  one  of  us  to  decide  where 
and  how  he  would  put  in  the  coming  summer.  The 
dry  diggings.  so  far  this  winter,  were  a  failure  for 
flie  want  of  water,  and  the  season  was  so  far  ad- 
vanced that,  by  the  time  a  claim  was  found  and 
opened  up,  no  water  would  be  available.  It  was 
therefore  evident  that  each  one  desired  to  know 
how  much  we  had  accumulated  during  the  last  three 
months.  The  product  of  each  day,  when  brought  in, 
was  cleaned,  weighed,  and  put  away,  but  not  one 
of  us.  except  Oneille.  had  kept  account  of  the 
weights,  he  being  the  custodian  of  our  treasure. 
The    sack    was    brought    out,    and   Oneille   announced 


THEODORE  A.  BELL 

Democratic  Nominee  for  Governor 


Bell  is  against  Division  of  the  State  of  California 


that  there  should  be  one  hundred  and  twenty-five 
ounces.  There  were  five  yeast  powder  cans  filled, 
besides  what  was  in  the  grub  purse.  The  contents 
of  each  can  was  taken  out  and  weighed,  and  when 
all  had  been  weighed  each  man  was  invited  to  step 
up  and  receive  his  share  of  our  three  months'  ac- 
cumulation. Our  partnership  was  now  at  an  end. 
We  had  passed  the  time  very  agreeably,  working 
every  day,  but  in  our  anticipations  of  a  rainy  winter 
had  been  disappointed. 

Captain  Allender  went  to  Santa  Cruz  and  engaged 
in  potato  farming,  being  undoubtedly  lured  into  this 
venture  by  the  extraordinary  high  price  of  the  spud, 
that  made  it  an  expensive  luxury  to  the  miner. 
The  captain  made  a  hit,  clearing  four  thousand 
dollars.  He  tried  to  repeat  his  success  the  next 
year,  but  when  his  crop  was  ready  to  dig  and 
sack,  the  commodity  was  selling  on  the  wharf  at 
San  Francisco  for  two-bits  a  sack.  The  most 
of  his  crop  rotted  in  the  ground.  Oneille  went 
south,  and  in  his  wanderings  came  across  a  lot  of 
chickens  for  sale.  Knowing  that  fresh  eggs  were 
worth  from  one  to  two  dollars  each,  he  invested 
over  one  hundred  dollars  in  two  dozen  hens  and 
two  roosters,  shipped  them  to  Yuba  City,  provided 
them  with  comfortable  quarters  and  plenty  of  feed, 
and  soon  he  was  selling  from  eight  to  twelve  eggs 
a  day  to  the  gamblers  and  sports  in  Marysville  for 
from  one  to  one  dollar  and  a  half  each.  Delisle 
packed  up  his  blankets  and,  with  a  small  amount 
of  the  necessaries  of  life,  including  pick  and  shovel, 
moved  about  eight  miles  further  up  the  river,  where 
he  continued  the  same  kind  of  mining  that  we  had 
pursued  during  the  last  three  months.  I  had  settled 
up  with  Allender  before  he  left,  paying  him  two  hun- 
dred dollars  for  stock  and  material  on  hand  at  the 
time  we  first  located  on  the  South  Fork  at  String- 
town.  This  left  me  with  about  two  hundred  dollars, 
out  of  which  I  paid  eighty  dollars  for  a  mule,  in- 
tending to  go  to  Rich  Bar,  on  the  North  Fork  of 
Feather  River,  as  soon  as  the  weather  settled.  It 
was  now  snowing  furiously  up  in  the  higher  moun- 
tains, and  many  who  had  rushed  in  during  the 
latter  part  of  February  were  caught  without  even 
a  tent  for  shelter.  One  mornng  in  the  early  part  of 
March,  Captain  Bond  and  I  left  the  cabin  in  the 
rain,  he  bound  for  Sacramento,  and  I  for  Yuba  City, 


where  I  had,  with  McLean  as  a  partner,  acquired 
two  lots  and  built  a  board  house  during  the  months 
of  December,  1849,  and  January,  1850. 

It  was  all  of  forty  miles  from  our  camp  to 
Marysville,  and  but  one  animal  betwen  us.  But 
with  a  rainy  day  and  muddy  roads  we  made  the 
trip,  arriving  in  Marysville  after  dark.  We  were 
both  wet  to  the  skin,  tired  and  hungry.  I  don't 
know  how  the  mule  felt,  but  he  had  carried  one  or 
the  other  of  us  every  step  of  the  way  from  the 
cabin.  After  we  saw  him  well  provided  for  in  a 
stall  at  the  livery  stable,  we  went  to  the  best  hotel 
in  town  anil  called  for  supper  and  lodgings  for  the 
night.  I  was  up  with  the  sun  the  next  morning, 
went  to  the  livery  stable,  saw  that  my  mule  was 
all  right,  got  my  breakfast,  and  went  over  to 
Yuba  City.  Many  of  those  who  had  secured  lots 
and  built  structures  to  protect  them  and  their  fami- 
lies from  the  excessive  rainy  weather  during  the 
winter  of  1849  and  1850  had  left,  some  going  to  the 
mines,  some  across  the  river  to  Marysville,  and 
others  to  seek  farming  land  that  was  not  claimed 
by   Spanish    or   Mexican    grant. 

On  meeting  McLean,  we  went  direct  to  our  prop- 
erty, wheh  was  untenanted,  except  by  Sam  Kineard, 
who  had  improvised,  with  some  shakes,  a  small  bed- 
room in  one  corner.  This  was  the  first  time  I  had 
met  Sam  since  we  parted  at  the  ford  on  Feather 
River  in  November,  1849,  where  Harris  came  near 
losing  his  team  and  all  his  belongings.  Sam  had 
been  to  the  mines  on  the  American  River,  and  not 
being  very  successful,  had  taken  up  his  abode  at 
Yuba  City  for  the  present.  McLean,  with  Cheever 
and  Brasier  as  partners,  and  with  an  outfit  of 
mining  tools,  including  quicksilver  machines  that  the 
two  latter  had  brought  around  the  Horn  to  Cali- 
fornia in  1849  from  Boston,  went  to  the  ford  on 
Feather  River  that  I  have  mentioned,  where  there 
were  acres  of  sand  and  gravel  that  would  prospect 
ten  cents  to  the  pan  on  the  surface,  with  a  feeling 
of  certainty  that  those  machines  would  make  good 
along  lines  studied  out  in  Boston.  Five  dollars 
per  day  to  the  man  was  the  best  they  could  make. 
In  the  times  of  which  I  am  writing,  it  didn't  take 
a  man  long  to  get  tired,  without  a  prospect  ahead 
for    better    pay.    so    they    quit.

MINING 

DEPARTMENT 


(EDITED  BY  CALVERT  WILSON,  PRESIDENT 

LOS  ANGELES   CHAMBER   OF   MINES.) 

=Tt  0  MUCH  COMPLAINT  HAS  ARISEN 
regarding  the  ruling  of  the  National 
Government's  Department  of  the  In- 
terior pertaining  to  the  patenting  of 
oil  lands,  that  First  Assistant  Frank 
Pierce  has  come  to  the  Coast,  and 
at  Los  Angeles,  recently,  took  up  the 
questions  at  issue,  both  with  the  oil 
men  themselves,  who  gave  their 
views  as  interested  parties,  and  at- 
torneys who  took  up  the  legal  points. 
The  troubles  of  the  oil  men  have 
been  brought  about  by  what  is  commonly  termed 
the  (fYard  decision,''- and  the  construction  placed  upon 
the  statutes  by  the  Interior  Department  in  respect 
to  patenting  oil   claims. 

According  to  one  speaker,  in  the  Coalinga  field, 
which  has  been  materially  affected  by  the  Yard  de- 
cision, $2,500,000  have  been  expended  upon  property 
withdrawn  from  entry  after  development.  Thirty- 
five  producing  wells  had  been  completed  on  Govern- 
ment land  without  patent;  twenty-six  rigs  were  in- 
stalled but  not  working,  owing  to  uncertainty  of 
title;  thirty-nine  wells  were  being  drilled,  and  eigh- 
teen had  shut  down  since  the  decision. 

Calvert  Wilson,  speaking  as  an  individual  and  not 
as  a  representative  of  the  Chamber  of  Mines  and 
Oil,  made  an  address,  in  which  he  brought  out  the 
vital  points  of  the  case  and  suggested  measures  for 
relief.  His  remedy  was  tiiat  either  the  placer  min- 
ing laws  where  they  apply  to  oil  land  should  be 
changed,  so  that  an  actual  discovery  is  not  essen- 
tial— but  that  merely  the  man  who  makes  the  loca- 
tion has  good  reason  to  believe  that  underneath  the 
iand  that  he  locates  there  is  oil,  and  then  he  should 
have  a  reasonable  time  in  which  to  develop  it —  or 
a  new  law  covering  oil  land  should  be  enacted,  under 
which  a  man  could  enter  a  piece  of  land  purely  as 
an  oil  claim.  As  to  the  latter  remedy,  the  speaker 
strongly  favored  the  so-called  Smith  bill,  that  is 
still  pending  in  some  congressional  committee,  be- 
cause the  bill  appealed  to  him  as  just  and  equitable. 
Mr.  Wilson  believed  that  a  man  should  be  given 
80  or  160  acres  as  an  individual,  and  stated  that  he 
did  not  believe  that  any  man  would  go  out  and  lo- 
cate twenty  acres  of  land,  with  the  chance  of  ex- 
pending fifty  or  a  hundred  thousand  dollars  in  order 
to  develop  it.  and  then  have  only  the  meager  twenty 
acres  when  it  is  developed. 

Mr.  Pierce  gave  three  days  to  the  hearing,  part  of 
which  time  was  devoted  to  legal  arguments  on  the 
subject  of  the  Yard  case,  and  the  application  of  the 
decision  to  patent  cases  now  on  appeal  from  the 
Commissioner  of  the  General  Land  Office.  What  re- 
sult his  visit  will  have  is,  of  course,  unknown,  but 
as  the  matter  is  of  vital  interest  to  the  oil  men  of 
California,  his  report  and  recommendations  are  anx- 
iously awaited. 


California  Asphalt  Improved. 
For  ten  years  California  asphalt  has  not  been  per- 
mitted to  enter  into  competition  with  other  asphalt 
in  New  York  municipal  work,  for  the  reason  that 
sufficient  attention  was  not  given  to  refining  the 
product,  and  therefore  it  could  not  stand  the  severe 
usage  to  which  the  streets  of  the  metropolis  are  sub- 
jected. Otto  H.  Klein,  chief  engineer  of  the  office 
of  the  Commissioner  of  Accounts  of  New  York,  has 
been  investigating  asphalt  conditions  in  this  State 
recently,  and  finds  that  so  much  improvement  has 
been  made  in  the  refining  of  the  product  that  it 
can  enter  the  New  York  market  in  competition  with 
Trinidad   asphalt,   which   now  has   a   monopoly. 

September   Oil  Production. 

The  low  price  of  oil  was  responsible  for  a  slight 

falling  off  in  oil  production  during  September.     The 

September  total  was  6,636,160  barrels,  while  that  for 

August  was   6,743,159  barrels,  a  decrease  of  106,999 


barrels    during    September.      The.  September    produc- 
tion in  the  different  fields  of  the  State  follows: 

San  Joaquin*  Valley  4,9SO,S60  barrels 

Southern    875,000  barrels 

Coast    780,300  barrels 

State    total 6,636.160  barrels 


Recent    Mining    Decisions. 

Eights  of  Subsequent  Locators. — Where  a  dis- 
covery is  made  on  a  vein  of  mineral  bearing  rock, 
and  the  notice  provides  that  such  claim  extends  700 
feet  in  a  northwesterly  direction  and  S00  feet  in 
a  southeasterly  direction  from  such  discovery,  and 
the  corner  stakes  on  the  southeastrly  end  are  so 
placed  as  to  take  in  more  than  S00  feet  of  such 
vein,  subsequent  locators  may  legally  locate  the  ex- 
cess of  ground,  as  the  first  location  is  valid  only  to 
the  extent  of  800  feet  southeasterly  from  the  point 
of  discovery  on  said  claim. — Flynn  Group  Mining 
Co.  v.  Murphv,  Supreme  Court  of  Idaho,  109  Pacific 
S51. 

Location  Notice. — Held  that,  where  a  location 
notice  states  that  the  mining  claim  which  it 
describes  extends  700  feet  in  a  northwesterly  direc- 
tion and  S00  feet  in  a  southeasterly  drection  along 
the  lode,  a  locator  may  go  to  the  point  of  discovery 
of  such  claim  and  measure  .the  ground  from  the  dis- 
covery point  800  feet  in  a  southeasterly  direction 
along  the  lode,  and  if  there  be  any  unlocated  ground 
beyond  that  800  feet,  may  legally  locate  it,  regard- 
less of  the  fact  that  the  easterly  end  stakes  had 
been  established  beyond  the  800  feet — Flynn  Group 
Mining  Co.  v.  Supreme  Court  of  Idaho,  109  Pacific 
851. 

Validity  of  Excessive  Location. — Where  the  exterior 
boundaries  of  a  mineral  location  include  such  an  un- 
reasonably excessive  area  that  such  boundary  lines 
cannot  be  said  to  impart  notice  to  a  prospector  of 
a  mineral  location  or  discovery  within  the  reasonable 
distance  of  a  lawful  claim  as  located  under  the 
statute,  such  location  will  be  held  void  on  the 
ground  that  the  ooundaries  of  the  claim  have  never 
been  marked  and  established  as  required  by  law. — 
Nicholls  v.  Lewis  &  Clark  Mining  Co.,  Supreme 
Court   of   Idaho,    109   Pacific   846. 

Unlawful  Cutting  on  Public  Land. — One  entering 
and  occupying  as  a  homestead  public  land,  shown 
by  the  books  of  the  Land  Department  to  be  subject 
to  such  entry,  cannot,  nor  can  anyone  claiming 
under  him,  justify  the  cutting  and  sale  of  timber 
therefrom  under  Act  June  3,  1878,  c.  150,  20  Stat. 
88  (U.  S.  Copm.  St.  1901,  p.  1528),  authorizing  the 
cutting  and  removal  of  timber  for  certain  purposes 
from  mineral  lands,  not  subject  to  entry  except  for 
mineral  purposes,  on  the  ground  that  the  land  was 
in  fact  mineral,  and  not  agricultural. — Bunker  Hill 
&   Sullivan   Mining   &   Concentrating  Co.

Every  time  you  buy  products  labeled  "Made  in 
California"  you  are  assured  of  the  BEST.  Encourage 
home  industries  by  demanding  HOME  PRODUCTS. 
This  is  the  best  way  every  loyal  Californian  can 
insure  his  State's  prosperity.  HOME  INDUSTRY 
means  more  factories,  more  workingmen,  and  more 
employment  at  better  wages.  Bear  this  in  mind, 
and  see  that  California  products  are  used  exclusively 
in  your  home.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


Calif

(Bj    Emma   \X .   Lillie,  Secretary   \.  S    G. 

"California's  Daj  for  the  Homelesa  Child."  This 
i-  the  daj  when  all  t  li«-  Native  Sona  and  Native 
Daughters  have  an  opportunity  to  give  financial 
aid  i"  i  he  orphans  of  *  'aliforna. 

The  1 eless  child!     When  one  stops  to  consider 

iiiai    hundreds  of   little   waifa   throughout    State 

have  no  parents  to  care  for  them,  no  home  to  Bhel 

ter   them,   i ne    i<>   console    them    when    thej    are 

Bad  nor  encourage  them  when  thej  pul  forth  their 
llittle  efforts  i<>  imitate  grown  ups,  no  helping  hand 
to  guide  them  into  the  greaj  unknown  future,  a 
responsive  chord  is  touched,  even  in  the  moal  cal 
loua   heart. 

And  almost  as  deplorable  aa  the  child  with. mi  a 
home,  is  the  home  without  a  child.  Eaefc  had 
longed  for  the  other,  without  practical  means  of 
getting  together,  until  the  Orders  of  Native  Sons 
and  Native  Daughters  took  up  the  cause  of  both 
for  their  mutual  benefit. 

The  success  of  the  undertaking  is  dependent  upon 
the  support  given  l>>  the  man}  separate  Parlora  of 
the  two  Orders,  nol  oulj  in  aiding  financially,  but  in 
finding  homes  Already  the  good  accomplished  is 
apparent  in  a  number  of  counties,  several  Parlors 
having  senf  Intern  1  donations  to  tins  year's  fund, 
and  also  a  number  of  applications  for  children.  In 
many  cases  tin-  children  are  placed  and  supervi- 
sion of  them  given  to  the   Parlor. 

Perhaps  in  the  history  of  this  counl  ry  then'  has 
never  been  a  more  stupendous  self-imposed  duty 
assumed  by  any  order.  Without  regard  I  o 
race  or  creed,  the  orphans  of  this  state  have 
become  the  wards  of  these  Orders.  It  is  a  high 
and  holy,  as  well  as  a  most  extraordinary  and  un- 
limited, undertaking.  When  we  remember  that  the 
guardianship  is  without  financial  support,  other 
than  that  which  tne  Native  Sous  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters can  provide,  each  Parlor  must  assume  respon- 
sibility for  its  share  of  the  great  task. 

I'nk  one  week  has  elapsed  since  October  8th, 
California's  Day,  and  aleardy  over  twenty  Par- 
lors have  sent  their  dona  t  ions.  Forty -two  applica* 
t  ions  for  children  are  on  file.  Eleven  children  have 
been  placed  in  excellent  homes,  and  several  other 
cases  are  almost  completed.  The  work  of  the  coin- 
mil  tee  do.-s  not  consist  so  much  in  placing  chil- 
dren,  as    in    selecting    mothers    for   them. 

These  little  ones,  whom  it  would  seem  that  Fate 
has  thrust  from  the  platform  of  a  common  human- 
ity, have  found  in  our  Orders,  friends,  yea,  guardi- 
ans, who  will  seek  homes  for  them  where  educa- 
tional advantages  will  1»-  placed  within  their  reach, 
where  they  will  be  clothed  and  fed,  and  we  trust 
that  they  niaj  find  along  the  route,  the  love  and 
sympathy    that     will    develop    in    their    \hiiiij;    hearts

Feminine    World's    Fads    and    Fancies 


3  THE  HOBGOBLIN  PUMPKIN,  IN 
many  and  grotesque  designs,  has  had 
its  day  with  our  youngsters,  this 
month  of  November  is  the  occasion 
for  its  being  made  into  toothsome 
pies,  like  unto  those  our  grand- 
mothers made,  and  will  flank  the 
well-browned  gobbler,  after  he's 
strutted  and  gobbled  his  last  amongst 
the  barn  yard  fowls.  Try  and  re- 
member each  little  blessing  and  each 
little  kindness  you've  had  this  last 
year,  when  seated  at  the  festive  board  in  all  the 
glory  of  new  gowns  and  accessories  incidental  to 
same,  for  though  it  has  seemed  hard,  even  to  live, 
at  times,  it  might  have  been  worse.  So  away  with 
dull  care,  and  just  a  glimpse  into  the  French  rooms 
of  some  of  our  fashion  centers  may  help  to  dispell 
the  gloom  and  drive  away  the  cobwebs  from  our 
brains. 

Some  New  Evening  Wraps. 
Black  in  many  weaves,  still  holds  its  own  for 
many  modes.  Black  messaline  satin,  combined  with 
old  gold  for  lining,  makes  swell  wraps.  One  I  saw 
was  full  length,  with  large  full  sleeves,  turn-back 
cuffs  heavily  braided  with  black  silk  soutache,  the 
sailor  collar,  reveres  in  front,  and  the  band  that 
hobbled  the  back  at  the  bottom  were  also  heavily 
braided;  large  satin-covered  buttons  closed  it  in 
front. 

Another  one,  of  black  and  old  gold  messaline, 
was  cut  full,  while  the  side  seams,  from  under  the 
arms,  were  left  open,  and  five  straps  of  same 
material  closed  them;  it  had  the  short  kimono 
sleeves,  and  was  made  so  as  to  combine  two  wraps 
into  one,  being  reversible,  as  when  one  wished  the 
old  gold  outside,  the  lapels  were  simply  turned 
over,  the  sides  buttoned  over  and  lo!  a  complete 
transformation  was  wrought. 

There  was  a  champagne  serge  with  Atlantic  blue 
messaline  lining  that  caught  my  fancy.  Perfectly 
loose  fitting,  with  large  kimono  sleeves  and  turn 
back  cuffs  of  the  blue,  with  tiny  gilt  buttons  on 
each  side  of  the  deep-slashed  cuffs.  A  large  hood 
lined  with  blue  and  extending  over  the  shoulders 
in  wide  reveres  to  nearly  the  waist  line  in  front,  also 
had  two  rows  of  tiny  gilt  buttons  to  finish  the 
point  of  the  hood  in  the  back.  Large  gilt  buttons 
and    silk    loops    closed    it. 

Evening  Gowns  Up-to-date! 

After  the  wrap  is  doffed,  we  naturally  look  for 
the  gown  underneath.  Many  of  the  latest  would  al- 
most seem  light  and  filmy  enough  to  be  wafted  away 
on  the  faintest  breeze,  were  it  not  that  they  were 
securely  anchored  to  some  pretty  lass.  Chiffon  con- 
tinues to  lead  as  an  evening  material,  combined 
with  messaline  or  net,  and  sometimes  both,  with  a 
touch  of  black  velvet  at  the  waist,  as  a  girdle  or 
just  a  knot  and  ends.  Narrow  black  velvet  ribbon 
trims  the  waist  and  short  sleeves  admirably.  All 
the  pastel  shades,  and  pure  white,  as  well  as  the 
somber  black,  are  represented  this  season  in  evening 
gowns  and  dancing  frocks.  Either  the  round  or 
square  dutch  neck  is  mostly  in  vogue.  Some  are 
decollete,  while  others  have  the  lace  yokes,  and 
stocks  if  preferred,  and  undersleeves.

rather  about  two  inches  up — was  what  I  saw  on 
one  sea-shell  pink  chiffon,  over  white  messaline, 
which  threw  the  dainty  rose  design  into  bold 
relief.  There  was  a  pink  folded  girdle  wth  long 
ends,  which  had  the  rose  spray  painted  on,  and  tiny 
ribbon  bows  separated  the  painted  sprays  on  the 
sleeves. 

Another  combination  of  dotted  silk  net  over  sea- 
shell  pink  chiffon  had  deep  tucks  on  the  flounce  of 
the  undersleeves,  and  a  heading  of  narrow  maribout 
gave'  a  pretty  touch  that  added  to  the  fluffiness  of 
the  frock.  A  folded  chiffon  girdle  was  finished  by 
a  bow  and  long  ends  of  black  velvet  ribbon  on  the 
left  front.     Narrow  black  velvet  ribbon  finished  the

low   neck   and   short    sleeves,    while   just   a   hint    of 
white   lace   extended  above   the  velvet   at   the   neck. 

But  a  pearl  beaded  net  over  coral  chiffon,  which, 
in  turn,  was  over  messaline  satin,  made  three  gowns 
in  one,  and  for  something  racy  and  unique,  was 
certainly  "it."  Decollete,  dainty  rose  sprays 
made  entirely  of  chiffon  linished  the  neck,  caught 
the  lace  on  the  sleeves,  and  were  placed  at  intervals 
of  about  live  inches  around  the  skirt  at  the  head  of 
the  band  that  hobbled  it  into  the  flounces  beneath. 
The  net,  chiffon  and  messaline  flounces  took  away 
that  severe  hobble  effect,  and  converted  it  into  a 
charming  gown.  A  cluster  of  chiffon  roses  and 
leaves  was  placed  on  the  left  side  of  the  waist, 
looking  for  all  the  world  just  as  though  it  had 
really  come  from  the  florist's. 

(Jrepes,  in  all  the  dainty  shades,  and  white,  are 
also  in  good  taste,  and  combined  with  silk  hand 
embroidery,  made  fetching  gowns.  Many  of  the  gir- 
dles have  long  ends  knotted  and  linished  with  tas- 
sels, and  can  be  placed  either  at  the  back  or  side 
front. 

one  gown  of  black  chiffon,  over  white  messa- 
line, with  a  deep  band  of  King's  blue  at  the  bot- 
tom, was  made  demi-train,  and  a  unique  feature  was 
a  row  of  tiny  black  silk  buttons  on  each  seam  of 
the  black  chiffon  overdress.  The  waist  was  slight- 
ly puffed,  wth  a  low  square  neck  and  short  sleeves, 
and  wide  plain  black  velvet  belt. 

A  combination  of  taupe  chiffon,  over  coral  mes- 
saline, with  hand  embroidery  around  the  bottom  of 
the  overdress,  and  silver  bullion  for  the  yoke 
stock  and  down  the  top  of  the  short  kimono  sleeves 
would  accentuate  the  charms  of  some  dashing  brun- 
nette.  For  a  olond  of  pronounced  type,  a  white 
silk  net  and  chiffon  were  combined  with  narrow 
blue  satin  ribbon,  which  edged  the  three  ruffles  on 
the  skirt.  Tiny  silk  roses  were  apparently  caught 
onto  the  ruffles  in  different  places,  and  a  bunch 
of  the  roses  and  leaves,  tied  with  narrow  blue 
satin  ribbon,  was  fastened  to  the  left  side  of  the 
girdle,  while  long  ends  of  wide  blue  ribbon  finished 
it  at  the  back.  The  neck  was  a  low  kimono,  with 
short  sleeves  on  which  the  silk  roses  were  also 
strewn.  A  blue  messaline  of  delicate  shade  was  un- 
derneath, and  gave  a  dainty,  shimmery  appearance 
to  the  gown. 

For  Afternoon  or  Street  Wear. 

Black  and  red  check  cloth,  combined  with  black 
messaline  in  pipings  around  the  neck  and  sleeves, 
folded  girdle  of  same,  and  deep  folds  at  the  bottom 
of  the  skirt,  made  a  hobble  that  was  quite  a  chic 
model  for  afternoon  wear.  It  could  also  be  worn 
on  the  street,  as  heavy  ecru  lace  formed  the  yoke 
and  stock,  and  could  also  be  used  for  the  under- 
sleeves, if  the  short  kimono  top  sleeve  was  pre- 
ferred. 

Black  messaline,  with  white  pin  stripes,  combined 
wim  plain  black  messaline  in  oands  around  the 
skirt,  folded  girdle  and  tiny  black  buttons  to  fin- 
ish the  waist  in  front  and  the  girdle  in  back,  also 
on  each  side  of  the  slashed  Kimono  sleeve,  made  a 
natty  frock  for  some  matron  who.  prefers  quiet 
effects.  A  touch  of  color,  such  as  corn,  cerese,  or 
King's     blue     could     be     inserted     in     the     pipings

"MISSION    BELLS" 

(Continued  from  Pai?e  8,  Column  3.) 

the  natural  surmise  of  the  beholder  is  that  it  was 
worn  out  by  the  great  number  of  persons  who  came 
to  aeat  themselves  in  it.  The  old  siiying  ahont  all 
the  world  loving  a  lover  is  true  always,  and  of  the 
two  chairs  t  his  is  the  one  which  most  excites  the 
interest    of  the   visiting  tourist." 

Kathryn's  interest  in  these  chairs  was  intense,  as 
was  also  that  of  Miss  Keith,  who  asked  the  priest 
if  he  could  tell  the  true  romance  of  the  legend  that 
led  lo  ii  being  called  the  lover's  "Wishing  Chair." 
That  gent  leman  said  that  there  was  an  old  manu- 
script in  his  study  about  the  mission  legends.  In 
a  few  minutes  Kathryn  was  pouring  over  this  and 
absorbing  every  word,  but  it  was  the  tale  of  the 
lover's  "Wishing  *  hair"  that  interested  her  most 
It  was  this:  "Ramon  Valencia  was  the  owner  of 
a  large  ranch 0  near  El  Paso  Del  Kobles,  and  he 
was  in  love  with  the  daughter  of  the  owner  of  the 
adjoining  rancho.  1  lei-  name  was  Mercedes  Escin- 
dilto.  The  lover's  affaire  de  coeur  was  not  piiii,^ 
Smoothly.      In    the    first    place,    he    had   a    rival,    whom 


he  greatly  feared  occupied  a  place  quite  as  importanl 
:i>  his  own  in  i  he  beart  of  his  holy  love  Mercedes, 
tin'  Spanish  beauty,  was  sometimes  kimi,  sometimes 
■  "''I  and  capricious,  an. I  sometimes  favfired  the  rival. 
Tiii-.  treatment  baffled  the  lover,  so  he  rode  t"  the 
mission  ami  same  haek  in  t  la-  wide  embrace  "f  the 
'Wishing  Chair.'  Ramon  wished  with  .ill  his  heart 
that  Mercedes  might  he  his  and,  tnar\eions  lo  relate, 
the  next  lime  he  Baw  Mercedes,  which  was  m.t  srerj 
Ions  afterwards  you  maj  he  sure,  the  girl  was  kind 
to  him.  Not  [one  after  this  the  wedding  took  place, 
Wonderful  was  the  power  of  the  "\\  isliin^  Chair*  1  " 
\-  Katbryn  read  on.  the  spell  of  the  legend  of  the 
"Wishing  Chair"  enveloped  her.  Miss  Keith,  the 
kindly    guide,   and    also,    as    Kat hryn    supposed,    the 

amateur    photographer,    were   on    il ther    side    of 

the  building,  looking  at  the  old  walls,  Kathryn 
slipped  out    under  the  shade  of  the   long  colonnades 

of    the    Church    and    went    and    sank    into    1  he    wide    cm 

brace  of  (he  "Wishing  Chair,"  and  :i->  Ramon  of  old 
had   wished    for  the   beautiful    Mercedes,   so   now  did 

Kathryn  wish  with  all  her  heart  Lhal  Kenneth  Meres 
ford   might    he   hers. 

Kathryn  Bat,  forgetful  of  time  and  place,  think- 
ing of  the  man  she  loved  with  every  Ihroh  of  her 
young  heart  She  had  thrown  her  hat  ;iside,  and  as 
she    lean ei I     back     t  he     heaiit  \     of    her    hair    and    the 

lovely    tour   of    her   Face    were    clearly    outlined 

against  the  carved  hack  of  the  old  chair,  dust  at 
this  juncture  the  photographer  came  around  the  cor- 
ner and  seeing  the  heautifill  picture  of  the  girl  in 
the  old  chair,  placed  the  tripod,  adjusted  the  camera, 
Bnap  weni  the  string  and.  unknown  to  Kathryn,  he 
had   secured  a    no-ja f  ive. 

On     the     way     hack     to     1'aso     Kohles     the     girl     Was 

very  quiet,  hut  finally  said:  "Miss  Keith,  the  lines 
of  your  poem  keep  repeating  themselves  in  my  heart. 
Please  may   we  sing  it   as  we  ride  along?" 

i  If    Thee,    full    many    a    tale   is   told, 

Native    Land,    my    Native    Land. 

How    freeman    fought,   in   days   of   old 

Xat  ive    Land,   my  Native   Land. 
For    thee,   thy    sons   would   freely   die, 
To   place   t hy   starry    banner  high — 
The  emblem  of  our  liberty — 

Native    Land,    my    Native    Land." 
"llow    proud   you   must   he  to  have  written  such   a 
hit   of  patriotism/'  she  said.     "Kathryn,  dear,  1   only 
put  down  what   came  spontaneously  from  my  heart," 
:i nswered    Miss    Keith.

California  Materials  for  California  Buildings 


HE  PERMANENT  EXHIBITION  OP 
the  structural  and  industrial  materials 
of  the  State  of  California  that  the 
State  Mining  Bureau,  through  State 
Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury  has 
arranged  for,  having  in  view  a  prac- 
tical lesson  in  the  promotion  of  home 
industry,  is  progressing  toward  the 
stage  of  actual  installation  in  the 
Ferry  Building,  San  Francisco.  In 
this  exhibition  all  counties  that  have 
structural  or  industrial  materials  of 
mineral  origin  in  their  borders  will  be  invited  to 
take  part.  The  show  is  for  the  purpose  of  upbuild- 
ing California,  and  will  be  seen  by  hundreds  of 
thousands  of  visitors  every  year.  Preliminary  to 
the  actual  installation,  a  representative  of  the 
Bureau,  W.  W.  Thayer,  has  been  sent  to  Southern 
California  to  talk  the  matter  over  with  those 
directly  interested,  as  producers.  Having  visited  all 
central  points  in  the  southern  part  of  the  State,  he 
will  now  call  upon  and  talk  with  producers  in  the 
central  and  northern  portions   of  California. 

Producers  are  showing  a  lively  interest  in  the  ex- 
hibit, that  promises  to  accomplish  large  benefits 
for  the  State,  and  the  architectural  details  of  a

Stockholders  to  Meet. 

A  meeting  of  the  stockholders  of  the  Native  Sons 
Hall  Association  of  Sacramento  will  be  held  in  that 
city,  November  9th,  for  the  purpose  of  electing  direc- 
tors, and  to  decide  the  future  course  of  the  associa- 
tion. This  will  be  the  fourth  annual  meeting  of  the 
stockholders  in  the  association.  Stock  was  originally 
sold  at  $100  per  share,  payable  in  monthly  install- 
ments of  $2.50,  and  as  most  all  the  stock  issued  has 
now  been  fully  paid  for,  there  is  a  demand  on  the 
part  of  a  large  proportion  of  the  stockholders  that 
building  operations  should  begin. 

The  association  owns  a  lot,  free  of  debt,  has  con- 
siderable money  in  bank,  and  there  is  no  apparent 
reason  why  a  building  for  the  Native  Sons  and  Na- 
tive Daughters  should  not  be  constructed  in  the 
Capital  City.  It  is  stated  on  good  authority  that  a 
majority  of  the  stockholders  will,  at  the  meeting  this 
month,  insist  upon  an  early  fulfillment  of  the  pur- 
pose for  which  the  association  was  incorporated, 
namely,  the  erection  of  a  hall.  If  this  is  not  done, 
there  is  likely,  so  report  has  it,  to  be  a  general 
demand  of  stockholders  for  a  return  of  their  money. 


To   Commence   Building. 

Some  years  ago  Los  Angeles  Parlor,  No.  45.N.S.G.W. 
formed  a  hall  association,  with  the  intention  of  ulti- 
mately erecting  a  home.  Since  the  owners  of  the 
quarters  leased  by  the  five  Los  Angeles  Parlors,  and 
known  as  the  Native  Sons  Hall,  have  notified  the 
tenants  that  they  must  vacate  at  the  termination 
of  their  lease  in  April  next  year,  several  hall  propo- 
sitions have  been  considered,  but  nothing  came  of 
them. 

It  is  now  practically  assured  that  the  hall  asso- 
ciation of  Los  Angeles  Parlor  will,  in  the  very  near 
future,  erect  a  building  on  its  property  on  Seven- 
teenth street,  just  off  of  Main,  where  all  the  Par- 
lors can  be  accommodated.  The  proposed  building, 
of  which  plans  are  now  being  drawn,  will  be  com- 
modious and  fitted  up  with  all  conveniences  for 
lodge  purposes.  Among  the  special  features  will  be 
an  attractive  club-room  and  a  large,  well  ventilated 
dancing  hall,  which  will  be  equipped  with  an  excel- 
lent floor,  a  stage  and  other  requisites,  so  that  it 
can  also  be  used  for  concerts,  etc. 

While  originally  stock  in  this  association  was  sold 
only  to  members  of  Los  Angeles  Parlor,  the  board 
of  directors  recently  decided  to  place  a  block  of 
10,000  shares,  at  a  par  value  of  $1  each,  at  the  dis- 
posal of  any  Native  Son  who  cared  to  invest.  No 
stock  will  be  sold  in  amounts  less  than  100  shares, 
but  it  can  be  paid  for  in  monthly  installments  of 
five  cents  for  each  share  subscribed  for,  or  $5  per 
month   for   100  shares. 

The  association  is  in  excellent  financial  condition, 
owning  its  own  lot,  and  its  business  is  conserva- 
tively managed.  There  is  no  reason  why.  upon  com- 
pletion of  the  proposed  building,  the  association 
should  not  pay  a  yearly  dividend,  but  beyond  this 
consideration,  loyalty  to  the  Order  should  impel 
every  Native  Son  to  get  behind  the  proposition  to 
have  a  IMative  Sons  Hall  in  Los  Angeles,  where  one 
is  so  badly  needed.     Here's  your  chance! 


HOLD  ANNUAL  HIGH  JINKS. 
Veritas  Parlor,  N.  D.  G.  W.,  of  Merced,  held  its 
annual  high  jinks,  October  6th,  at  which  there  was 
a  large  attendance.  Twenty-five  dollars  were 
donated  to  the  cause  of  California's  homeless  chil- 
dren. A  splendid  banquet  was  spread  during  the 
evening.

ENDORSES   PANAMA   EXPOSITION; 

RECOMMENDS  MEMBER  FOR   VACANCY. 

Cabrillo  Parlor,  No.  114,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  of  Ventura, 
has  sent  out  invitations  for  an  elaborte  banquet  to 
be  given  the  evening  of  October  27th,  in  celebration 
of  the  twenty-third  anniversary  of  its  institution. 
Great  preparations  have  been  made  for  the  event, 
and  a  large  attendance  is  expected. 

Cabrillo  Parlor  has  unanimously  adopted  the  fol- 
lowing resolution:  "Resolved,  That  it  is  the  sense 
of  Cabrillo  Parlor,  No.  114,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  that  every 
loyal  Native  Son  should,  at  the  coming  general  elec- 
tion, support  the  propositions  to  incur  a  bonded  in- 
debtedness on  behalf  of  the  City  and  County  of 
San  Francisco,  and  the  State  of  California,  to  the 
end  that  the  Panama  Pacific  Exposition  may  be 
held  at  San  Francisco,  California,  in  1915." 

At  a  recent  meeting  the  Parlor  adopted  resolu- 
tions deploring  the  death  of  Grand  Trustee  Nathan 
P.  Bundy,  in  whose  death  "the  Order  has  suffered 
a  great  loss,  especially  in  the  southern  part  of  the 
State."  Believing  that  the  vacancy  thus  caused 
in  the  Board  of  Grand  Officers,  "should  be  filled  by 
a  member  of  the  Order  who  can,  with  ability  and 
energy,  take  up  the  work  of  Grand  Trustee," 
Cabrillo  Parlor  recommends  the  selection  of  Judge 
Robert  M.  Clarke  of  that  Parlor,  who  has  been  a 
member  of  the  Order  for  twelve  years. 


OBSERVES  FLAG  DAY. 


Oneonta  Parlor,  No.  71,  N.  D.  G.  W.,  of  Ferndale, 
had  a  large  attendance  of  members  and  invited 
guests  at  its  observance  of  Flag  Day.  "Five  hun- 
dred" was  indulged  in  for  a  couple  of  hours,  the 
score  cards,  as  well  as  the  hall  decorations,  being 
in  keeping  with  the  flag  day  idea,  the  stars  and 
stripes  being  everywhere  in  evidence.  At  the  con- 
clusion of  the  program  and  games,  supper  was 
served,  a  feature  at  the  banquet  table  being  dif- 
ferent quotations  eulogizing  the  flag,  which  were 
laid  at  each  plate  and  which  were  read  by  those 
present,   in   their   turn. 

Mrs.  W.  W.  Barnes,  president  of  the  Parlor, 
called  the  assemblage  to  order  and  introduced  Mrs.

ments committee,  presided  during  the  rendition  of 
the  following  program :  -Song,  Native  Daughters'

Francis;  song  "America,"  assemblage.  Rev.  C.  M. 
Hitchcock  was  accompanist  for  the  musical  numbers. 


Entertains  at   Cards. 


Los  Angeles  Parlor,  No.  124,  N.D.G.W.,  gave  a 
card  party  October  15th,  the  hall  being  prettily  dec- 
orated for  the  occasion.  During  the  evening  light

affair  were:  Mrs.  E.  G.  Luentzel,  Mrs.  Don  L.  Clam- 
pitt,  Mrs.  William  J.  Dorr  and  Miss  Elizabeth  Demp- 
sey.  Whist  was  the  evening's  game,  and  attractive 
prizes  were  awarded  those  having  the  highest  scores.

esting program  will  be  followed  by  dancing.

Who  is  Your  Choice  for 
Lieutenant-Governor? 


Wallace  would  divide  California  into  two  States,  but  read  what 
Timothy  Spellacy  says,  then  consider. 


"Tim"  Spellacy,  democratic 
nominee  for  Lieutenant-Gov- 
ernor, in  his  speeches  in  Los 
Angeles  and  San  Francisco, 
said:  "I  am  strongly  opposed, 
for  all  time,  to  any  movement 
looking  toward  the  division  of 
our  great  State.  I  love  Cali- 
fornia from  the  snow -clad 
peaks  of  Siskiyou  to  the  sun- 


■■TIM"  SPELLACY, 
Candidate  for  Lieutenant-Governor. 


kissed  shores  of  San  Diego,  and 
I  would  not  deprive  our  golden 
empire  of  a  single  one  of  its 
beautiful  and  prosperous  coun- 
ties. Every  inch  of  it  is  sacred 
to  every  mother's  son  of  us 
who  has  a  spark  of  pride,  sen- 
timent or  patriotism  in  his 
makeup.  Divide  California  ? 
Well,  I  should  say  not !" 


Compare  this  statement  of   Mr.   Spellacy   with   that  of   his  Lincoln-Roosevelt  Republican  opponent, 

A.  J.  Wallace,  who  is  Chairman  of  the  Los  Angeles  State-Division 
League,  and  at  a  meeting  of  that  League,  held  October  5,  1909,  said: 

"State  division  cannot  be  accomplished  in  a  few  weeks  or  months, 
but  will  probably  come  only  after  a  year  or  more  of  constant  endeavor. 
I  am  in  favor  of  going  into  the  matter  now,  and  not  putting  off  for  long 
that  which  manifestly  should  be  done  now." 

This  same  A.  J.  Wallace,  insurgent  nominee  for  Lieutenant-Governor,  is  a  member  of  the  committee  appointed  at  that 
meeting  to  "CARRY  ON  THE  CONSTANT  ENDEAVOR,"  by  which  it  is  hoped  eventually  to  divide  the  State 
into  two. 


Which  of  these  two  men  are  you  going  to  vote  for  ? 
It  shouldn't  be  difficult  to  decide !

Hallowe'en  Observance.

principally  in  sheet  and  pillow  cases,  diversified  by 
hobble  dress  and  a  few  original  characters.  Prizes 
were  awarded  Emma  G.  Foley  for  best  costume ; 
Jennie  E.  Brown  for  funniest,  and  Grace  Magner 
for  most  original.  Some  ten  members  won  prizes 
in  the  games  provided.  The  members  realize  that  the 
committee  on  arrangements  is  deserving  of  a  vote 
of  thanks  for  educational  benefits  accruing  from

ter of  *  ceremonies.  Those  present  were:  Mesdames

Western  Man  in  Hall  of  Fame. 

Monterey — Monterey  Parlor,  No.  75,  has  started  a 
movement  to  have  a  statue  of  Father  Junipero  Serra 
placed  in  the  Hall  of  Fame  at  the  National  Capitol 
in  Washington,  D.  C.  At  a  recent  meeting,  the  fol- 
lowing resolution,  looking  to  this  end,  was  adopted: 
••Whereas,  in  the  Hall  of  Fame  at  Washington, 
D.  C,  there  is  not  now  any  statue  commemorating 
the  life  and  work  of  any  Western  man;  and  whereas, 
it  becomes  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  to 
guard  the  interest  of  our  great  State  in  all  matters 
pertaining  to  the  West  in  general,  and  the  State 
of  California  in  particular;  and  whereas,  there  has 
been  identified  with  our  State's  history  one  who 
devoted  the  best  part  of  his  life  for  the  advance- 
ment of  California  and  its  people,  and  whose  memory 
should  be  perpetuated  not  only  in  California,  but 
also  in  the  nation  at  large;    therefore  be  it 

"Resolved,  That  Monterey  Parlor,  No.  75,  N.  S.  G. 
W.,  do  all  in  its  power  to  have  placed  in  the  Hall 
of  Fame  at  our  National  Capitol  a  statue  of  Father 
Junipero  Serra,  and  further  that  the  matter  be  taken 
up  with  the  Grand  Parlor  of  our  Order,  with  the 
Congressman  from  'our  district,  and  with  the  other 
California  representatives  at  Washington,  urging 
them  to  use  their  best  endeavors  to  obtain  the 
placing  of  the  said  statue  as  hereinbefore  set  forth; 
that  a  copy  of  this  resolution  be  spread  upon  our 
minutes,  and  that  such  further  action  be  taken  in 
the  matter  as  may  seem  to  our  Parlor  to  be  proper."

refreshments. 


Cascarone  Ball. 
San  Miguel — A  cascarone  ball  was  given  jointly 
by  San  Marcos  Parlor,  No.  150.  N.  S.  G.  W.  and 
San  Miguel  Parlor,  No.  94,  N.  D.  G.  W.}  October 
12th,  for  the  benefit  of  the  Children's  Agency,  and 
no  pains  were  spared  by  either  Parlor  in  making 
the  affair  the  success  it  proved  to  be.  There  was 
good  music,  and  the  citizens  generally  helped  to 
swell  the  fund  for  the  worthy  object. 


Farewell  for   Popular   Member. 

Merced — A.  E,  Howard,  a  past  president  and  popu- 
lar member  of  Yosemite  Parlor,  No.  24,  who  has 
taken  up  his  residence  in  San  Francisco,  was  given 
a  unique  and  royal  farewell  party  by  his  Parlor, 
October  4th,  in  the  nature  of  a  "trip  to  Chinatown." 
Chinese  decorations  prevailed  throughout  the  hall 
and  the  ever-present  sign  "Look  Out  for  the  Cars" 
was  much  in  evidence  at  the  "railroad  crossing." 
Under  "good  of  the  Order,"  a  number  of  members 
made  little  talks,  and  the  "sing  lo"  lasted  until  the 
wee  sma'  hours,  at  which  time  Chop  Sing  Suey 
brought  forth  the  eternal  roasted  pig.  Servants 
bearing  the  necessary  implements,  chop  sticks,  ap- 
peared on  the  scene  and  all  partook  of  an  eighty- 
pound  porker  done  to  a  turn.  All  the  numerous 
Chinese  tid-bits  were  also  provided. 

During  the  evening,  Judge  F.  G.  Ostrander,  on 
behalf  of  the  members  of  Yosemite  Parlor,  presented 
Mr.  Howard  with  a  handsome  locket,  set  with 
diamonds,  as  a  token  of  respect  and  esteem.  The 
recipient  responded  in  his  jovial  manner,  thanking 
his   friends    for  their  remembrance   and   kindness. 


Big  Class  at  Redding. 

Redding — Grand  Organizer  Anrdew  Mocker  has 
been  preaching  the  doctrine  of  Native  Sonism  in  this 
city  lately,  and  so  well  has  he  set  forth  the  aims 
and  objects  of  this  .great  State  Order,  that  a  class 
of  fifty  eligibles  have  been  secured,  and  they  will 
become  members  of  McCloud  Parlor,  No.  149,  at 
its  meeting  October  31st.  The  Parlor  has  under  way 
plans  for  an  active  social  season  during  the  winter 
months. 

At  a  meeting  September  26th,  a  movement  was 
launched  for  the  securing  of  the  Grand  Parlor  session 
of  1912  for  this  city.  Redding  has  many  claims  upon 
which  to  base  its  demand  for  this  honor,  and  the 
citizens  will  aid  McCloud  Parlor  in  providing  an 
elaborate  series  of  entertainments.  Redding  is  the 
first  in  the  field  for  the  1912  session,  and  hopes  to 
capture  the  prize,  which  will  be  awarded  at  the 
Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor  session  next  June. 


Large  Class  Initiated. 
Angels  Camp — Angels  Parlor,  No.  80,  had  a  rous- 
ing meeting,  October  10th,  when  twenty  candidates 
were  initiated.  Grand  Second  Vice-President  Clarence 
E.  Jarvis  of  Sutter  Creek  was  present  to  pay  an 
official  visit,  and  Calaveras  Parlor,  No.  67,  San  An- 
dreas, and  Chispa  Parlor,  No.  139,  Murphys,  were 
represented  by  large  delegations.  This  was  the 
largest  gathering  of  Native  Sons  ever  witnessed  in 
Calaveras  County.  Following  the  Parlor  meeting, 
an  elaborate  banquet  was  served  under  the  super- 
vision  of   a   committee    from    the   Native   Daughters. 


Celebrates  First  Anniversary. 
Petaluma — The  first  anniversary  of  Petaluma  Par- 
lor, No.  27,  was  elaborately  celebrated  by  a  grand 
ball,  September  28th.  The  decorations  of  the  hall 
were  very  pretty*and  were  enhanced  by  the  beauti- 
ful costumes  of  the  ladies.  Music  was  furnished  by 
a  large  orchestra,  and  during  the  evening  light 
refreshments  were  served.  The  floor  managers  were 
Will  Farrell,  A.  W.  Parent  and  Frank  Thompson. 


The  Germans  Hold  Forth  at  Ramona. 
Los  Angeles — Ramona  Parlor,  No.  109,  had  a  Ger- 
man night,  October  21st,  the  first  in  a  series  of 
winter  social  affairs.  The  arrangements  were  in 
charge  of  those  members  of  German  descent,  who 
provided  a  program  and  refreshments  that  would 
have  created  envy  in  the  most  loyal  subject  of  the 
Kaiser.  During  the  season  there  will  be  an  Italian 
night,  when  it  is  promised  one  of  the  most  diffi-

To  Contest  With  Daughters. 

Fresno — For  the  benefit  of  the  Children's  Agency, 
Fresno  Parlor,  No.  25,  gave  a  theater  beenfit,  Octo- 
ber 8th,  that  drew  out  a  large  number  of  people  who 
desired  to  help  the  Order's  cause  in  behalf  of  the 
California  homeless  child.  The  committe  in  charge 
consisted  of  W.  T.  Mattingly  (chairman),  George 
Roeding,  Adolph  Newhouse,  W.  F.  Toomey,  M.  T. 
Lockhart,  A.  L.  Townes,  R.  S.  Clark,  J.  P.  Coyle, 
H.  L.  Graham,  Gates  and  others.  The  theater  stock 
company  presented  "The  Merry  Liars,"  and  several 
local   soloists   added  to   the   evening's  enjoyment. 

There  is  much  activity  in  Fresno  Parlor,  and  a 
campaign  for  new  members  is  on,  which  is  meeting 
with  great  success.  A  plan  is  now  being  devised  for 
a  membership  contest  between  the  members  of  Fresno 
Parlor  and  the  newly-instituted  Native  Daughter  Par- 
lor, to  see  which  organitation  can  add  the  most  new 
members  to  its  roll  before  the  new  year.  Prizes 
will  stimulate  activity  in  the  friendly  contest. 


Progress  the  Watchword. 
San  Francisco — Commencing  with  October  6th,  Al- 
catraz  Parlor,  No.  145,  will  meet  every  Thursday 
evening  in  Scottish  Hall,  121  Larkin  street.  ihc 
new  hall  is  commodious  and  has  an  excellent  danc- 
ing floor.  Several  candidates  were  initiated  me 
first  meeting  night  in  the  new  quarters,  and  many 
more  are  in  prospect.  The  Parlor  has  organized  a 
drill  corps,  with  J.  Wesley  Buson,  of  the  California 
Greys,  in  charge.  As  this  is  the  season  of  good- 
fellowship  and  entertainments  the  Parlor  will  intro-

SEVERAL  PARLORS  OF  JUNIOR 

NATIVE  SONS  ORGANIZED. 

For  several  years  past,  propositions  looking  to 
the  formation  of  junior  parlors  of  native  sons  have 
been  before  the  Grand  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  the 
idea  being  to  get  boys  between  12  and  18  years  of 
age  interested  in  the  parent  order  and  its  work  and 
teachings  as  regards  the  State.  The  Lake  Tahoe 
Grand  Parlor  authorized  a  committee  to  investigate 
the  plan,  and  report,  at  the  1911  session.  To  thor- 
oughly test  the  proposition,  several  junior  parlors 
are  being  organized,  and  their  career  will  be  watch- 
ed with  interest. 

Whle  at  present  these  junior  parlors  are  in  no 
way  affiliated  with  the  Order  of  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West,  the  Grand  Parlor  has,  in  a  meas- 
ure, encouraged  their  institution,  and  if,  after  due 
trial,  it  can  be  shown  that  the  idea  is  in  the  best 
interests  of  the  Order's  future,  the  juniors  will,  in 
all  probability,  be  made  a  branch  of  the  N  S  G.W. 
At  present,  however,  the  junior  order  of  native 
sons  is  no  way  aligned  with  the  Order  of  N.  S.  G.  W. 

Balboa  Parlor,  i\o.  3,  Junior  vrder  of  Native 
Sons,  was  instituted  publicly  ctober  11th.,  at 
Richmond  Masonic  Temple,  by  a  committee  of  or- 
ganizers appointed  by  the  senior  parlor,  namely: 
Walter  C.  Eisenschimel,  chairman;  George  Stroh- 
meier.  John  0.  *  lugger,  Frank  Hardy,  James  P. 
Olwell.  Jr.,  and  James  J.  O'Meara.  The  hall  was 
beautifully  decorated  for  the  occasion,  and  the 
members  and  friends  were  on  hand  to  witness  the 
installation  ceremonies  The  parlor  is  composed  of 
Ciiiifornia-born  lads  between  the  ages  of  12  and  IS 
years.  It  is  organized  for  social  purposes,  as  well 
as  to  give  the  boys  a  good  moral  training  under 
the  proper  supervision,  so  thnt  they  may  finauy  be- 
come full-fledged  Native  Sons.  John  C.  Mienest,  a 
student  of  the  State  Normal  School,  was  made  pre- 
siding officer,  and  with  other  officers,  was  selected 
to   serve   for   the   term. 

Presidio  Parlor,  Xo.  1.  J.  O.  N.  S.,  was  the  first 
parlor  organized.  has  thirty-five  members.  Meyer 

Josephson  of  Presidio   Parlor.  No.   194,  N.  S.  G.  W.. 
was   the   organizer

The  Passing  of  the  Pioneer 


Miguel  Arada,  a  Pioneer  of  1849  and  for  forty-two 
years  a  resident  of  Alameda,  died  there  recently. 
He  was  a  native  of  Chile,  aged  79  years.  A  widow 
and  nine  children  survive.  Deceased  engaged  in 
fanning  for  many  years. 

George  W.  Douglas,  who  came  to  California  in 
1S49,  and  had  the  distinction  of  running  the  first 
of  the  old  horse  cars  operated  in  San  Francisco,  died 
recently  in  Healdsburg,  survived  by  a  widow  and 
son.    Deceased  was  a  native  of  New  York. 

Royal  B.  Parker,  one  of  Stockton's  Pioneer  merch- 
ants, passed  away  in  that  city  recently,  aged  92 
years,  survived  by  four  children.  Deceased  was  a 
native  of  New  Hampshire,  and  had  been  a  long- 
time member  of  the  San  Joaquin  County  Society  of 
California  Pioneers.  Mr.  Parker,  in  company  with 
twenty-three  other  young  adventurers,  purchased  a 
whaling  vessel  of  400  tons  burden,  with  provisions 
for  two  years,  and  loaded  a  cargo  of  lumber  for 
sale  in  California,  sailing  from  Nantucket,  Mass.,  for 
the  gold  fields,  in  August,  1849.  The  little  vessel 
sailed  into  San  Francisco  Bay  in  February,  1850. 
After  selling  the  ship  and  cargo,  Mr.  Parker  went 
to  Stockton  on  the  steamer  General  Sutter,  paying 
$25  for  the  trip. 

Mrs.  Susan  Worden,  who  came  to  California  in 
1S52  and  settled  in  Grass  Valley,  Nevada  County, 
but  later  went  to  Siskiyou  County,  where  she  built 
the  first  hotel  in  Sission,  passed  away  recently  at 
Gilroy.  Deceased  was  aged  91  years,  and  is  sur- 
vived by  two  children. 

Francis  Matty,  a  native  of  New  York,  aged  76 
years,  died  recently  at  Porterville,  survived  by  a 
widow  and  five  daughters.  In  1851,  during  the  gold 
rush,  Matty  came  to  California,  and  eighteen  >ears 
later  moved  to  Tulare  County,  settling  near  Tulare. 
Recently  he  took  up  his  residence  in  Porterville. 

Alonzo  H.  Fox,  who  came  across  the  plains  to  Cali- 
fornia in  1840,  died  recently  at  Long  Beach,  aged  03 
years.  Deceased  was  a  native  of  New  York  and  one 
of  the  famed  pathfinders  through  the  East  Gate 
pass  in  the  Rockies.  He  served  a  year  as  assistant 
postmaster  of  Sacramento  in  1851,  returning  East  in 
1852.  In  1877  he  again  came  to  California,  taking 
up  his  residence  in  the  southern  part  of  the  State, 
where  he   since  resided.     Two   daughters   survive. 

Corin  Wicker,  a  Pioneer  of  Kern  County,  died 
recently  at  Glennville,  survived  by  a  widow  and 
four  children.  Deaceased  was  widely  known  through- 
out Kern  County,  having  gone  to  Bakersfield  in  the 
late  40's  in  a  prairie  schooner  and  pitched  his  camp 
where  the  county  hospital  now  stands.  He  lived 
in  that  vicinity  until  1853,  when  he  went  to  Glenn- 
ville, where  he  had  since  made  his  home.  Three 
years  later,  together  with  Rev.  Dooley,  Mr.  Winker 
established  the  first  church  at  Glennville,  where  the 
Rev.  Dooley  still  holds  the  position  of  pastor  and 
pronounced  the  funeral  rites  over  his    friend. 

Erastus  Ford,  an  old  resident  of  Contra  Costa 
County,  died  recentyl  at  Oakland.  He  was  a  na- 
tive of  Michigan,  SO  years  old,  and  is  survived  by 
a  widow  and  nine  children.  When  but  a  youth  of

ing for  some  time,  he  went  to  Contra  Costa  County

96  years.  He  was  a  native  of  Vermont,  and  is  sur- 
vived by  two  daughters.  During  his  active  career, 
deceased  had  engaged  in  mining,  farming,  dairying, 
stock  raising  and  fruit  growing,  and  in  all  his  deal- 
ings was  reputed  to  have  never  engaged  in  a  dis- 
honest transaction  or  committed  an  ill  deed  against 
any  man. 

Dr.  G.  L.  Simmons,  a  Pioneer  physician  of  Cali- 
fornia, died  in  Sacramento,  October  4th.  He  was  a 
native  of  Massachusetts,  aged  78  years,  and  is  sur- 
vived by  a  widow  and  three  children.  In  1S49, 
when  but  a  boy  of  17,  Dr.  Simmons  sailed  from 
Boston,  in  the  brig  Curacoa,  and  rounded  Cape  Horn, 
bound  for  San  Francisco.  After  a  lengthy  passage 
of  nine  months  he  reached  California,  while  the  State 
was  yet  in  its  territorial  condition.  After  a  few 
month's  stay  in  San  Francisco,  he  removed  to  Sacra- 
mento during  the  terrible  epidemic  of  cholera,  and 
while  the  excitement  incident  to  the  squatter  riots 
was  still  intense.  Here  he  engaged  in  the  drug,  busi- 
ness for  some  years,  when  he  went  East  to  study 
medicine,  graduating  from  Harvard  in  1S56.  Shortly 
after  receiving  his  degrees,  he  returned  to  Sacra- 
mento and  had  resided  there  ever  since. 

E.  B.  Thurher,  who  arrived  in  San  Francisco  by 
way  of  Panama  in  1S50,  passed  away  near  Winters 
recently.  He  was  a  native  of  Rhode  Island,  aged  S4 
years,  and  is  survived  by  a  widow  and  four  chil- 
dren. After  his  arrival  here,  deceased  spent  some 
time  in  Sonoma  and  Napa  Counties,  but  since  1S5S 
had  resided  in  Pleasant  Valley. 

Pablo  Vasquez,  who  was  born  at  Mission  Dolores, 
San  Francisco,  January  25,  1842,  passed  away  in 
San  Francisco,  October  5th,  survived  by  five  chil- 
dren. Deceased  was  very  familiar  with  the  history 
of  Dolores  Mission,  and  delighted  in  telling  the 
stories  connected  with  its  early  history.  For  many 
years  he  had  resided  at  Half  Moon  Bay,  and  his 
interment  took  place  there. 

Dougal  Stuart  Sartwell,  who  arrived  in  San  Fran- 
cisco, via  Panama,  in  1850,  died  recently  at  Crescent 
City,  survived  by  two  sons.  Deceased  was  born  in 
New  York,  in  1822,  and  early  in  life  learned  the 
jewelry  trade.  Upon  arrival  in  San  Francisco  he 
secured  work  at  a  jeweler's  bench,  but  in  1853  moved 
to  Crescent  City,  where  he  since  resided  and  where 
he  followed  his  trade  until  advancing  age  forced  his 
retirement.  He  was  one  of  the  first  supervisors 
when  Del  Norte  County  was  created,  and  had  seen 
Crescent  City  grow  from  its  earliest  beginning.  For 
a  time,  deceased  was  keeper  of  the  Crescent  City 
Lighthouse,  when  whale  oil  was  used  for  illuminat- 
ing purposes. 

Sister  Eloysus,  who  arrived  in  San  Jose  in  1851, 
passed  away  in  that  city,  October  14th.  aged  85 
years.  For  fifty-nine  years  she  had  been  identified 
with  Notre  Dame  Convent. 

Oliver  Clark,  who  arrived  in  California  in  1851 
and  had  engaged  in  a  sea-faring  life  up  to  six  years 
ago,  died  in  San  Francisco,  October  16th,  aged  75 
years,  survived  by  four  chldren.  He  had  made  more 
than  one  hundred  voyages  across  the  Pacific,  as 
steward   and   chief  steward. 

Margaret  Brown  Bagley,  an  old  Pioneer  of  Mule- 
town,  Amador  County,  passed  away  October  5th. 
She  was  a  native  of  Belfast,  Ireland,  aged  64  years. 
A  "friend,"  writing  of  this  good  woman  in  the  lone 
Echo,  said:  "Another  Pioneer  Mother  has  laid  down 
the    strenuous    cares    of   a   pioneer   life   to   take   her

rest  beside  the  companion  of  her  younger  days — 
gone,  to  work  no  more;  gone,  to  sleep  among  the 
blessed.  Margaret  Bagley  is,  perhaps,  looking  down 
to-night  upon  the  grass-grown  streets  of  the  little 
mining  camp  she  loved  so  well,  or  possibly  listening 
to  the  swish  of  the  hydraulic,  as  she  rocked  the 
cradle  of  her  baby  boy.  *  *  *  Faithful  as  a  wife, 
patient  and  loving  as  a  mother,  she-  was  esteemed 
by  all,  and  left  behind  her  seven  children  to  mourn 
a  mother's  love  and  miss  a  mother's  gootl-night 
kiss." 

Mrs.  Adelaide  Phillips,  who  came  by  wagon  train 
to  California  in  the  early  '50s,  passed  away  in  lone, 
October  8th,  survived  by  four  children.  Deceased 
was  a  native  of  Wisconsin,  aged  64  years.  She  was 
of  a  very  sympathetic  nature,  and  was  always  a 
comfort  in  sickness  and  distress. 


DONNER   PARTY   RESCUER 

JOINS   THE    SILENT   MAJORITY. 

John  Baptiste  Truvido,  aged  85  years,  who  assisted 
in  the  rescue  of  the  ill-fated  Donner  Party,  died  at 
Marshall  recently.  Truvido  was  a  young  man  at 
the  time,  and  chanced  to  be  at  Sutter's  Fort,  when 
the  news  of  the  party's  distress  reached  there.  He 
was  one  of  the  first  to  undertake  the  Herculean 
task  of  conveying  supplies  over  the  snow-covered 
mountains  to  the  starving  immigrants,  and  was  one 
of  the  first  to  reach  them. 

In  other  ways  Truvido  was  an  interesting  charac- 
ter. His  father,  and  his  grandfather  before  him,  had 
been  French  Canadian  trappers  and  traders  who 
roamed  among  the  Indians  in  that  vast  empire  lying 
west  of  the  Mississippi  River.  Truvido  never  knew 
exactly  where  he  was  born,  but  said  that,  to  the 
best  of  his  knowledge,  he  first  saw  the  light  of  day 
somewhere  in  what  is  now  the  state  of  Utah.  He 
was  brought  up  in  that  wild  country,  and  at  the  time 
of  his  death  was  perhaps  the  last  direct  descendant 
of  one  of  the  most  daring  and  picturesque  company 
of  men  that  ever  explored  new  lands,  bringing  with 
them  the  traces  of  civilization  which  today  domi- 
nate the  Western  world.  Truvido  years  ago  settled 
among  the  Indians  in  Tomales  and  there,  among 
the  half-breeds,    he   found   congenial   company.

ALIFOKNIA  SCENES  AND  CALI- 
fornia  romance  are  to  be  featured 
in  a  new  grand  opera,  "Natoma," 
soon  to  be  produced  by  Oscar 
Itammerstein,  under  the  direction  of 
Andreas  Dippel.  The  words  are  by 
Joseph  D.  Redding,  a  well-known  San 
Franciscan,  and  the  music  by  Victor 
Herbert.  The  scenes  are  laid  along 
the  Santa  Barbara  coast,  and  around 
them  are  woven  romantic  California 
stories.  "Natoma"  is  a  story  of 
early  California  days,  during  the  mission  period. 
The  first  act  is  laid  on  a  Santa  Barbara  Channel 
island,  the  second  on  the  mainland  near  the  mission 
church,    and   the    third   within    the    mission. 

In  the  first  act,  Don  Francisco  de  la  Guerra  is 
celebrating  with  great  pomp  at  his  Santa  Cruz 
Island  hacienda,  the  coming  of  age  of  Barbara,  his 
daughter,  who  lias  just  finished  her  convent  days. 
Juan  Bautista  Alvarado,  cousin  of  Barbara,  seeks 
her  hand  in  marriage.  He  enters  the  stage,  a  fiery, 
impetuous  character,  accompanied  by  Jose  Castro,  a 
hateful  half-breed,  and  Pico  and  Kagama,  rough 
riders  and  vaqueros.  Natoma,  a  native  Spanish  girl, 
companion  to  Barbara,  enters  with  Paul  Merrill,  a 
lieutenant,  who  has  rowed  from  the  mainland  to 
meet  her.  Paul  points  to  a  necklace  of  abalone  and 
calls  the  maiden  queen  of  the  land,  asking  the  secret 
of  the  amulet  at  her  neck.  Natoma  sings  the  legend 
of  her  race:  "Vanished  are  my  father's  people;  now 
the  stranger  comes  as  chieftain."  During  the  en- 
semble, as  Father  Peralta  brings  Barbara  to  Don 
Francisco,  the  eyes  of  Barbara  and  Paul  meet,  and 
love  springs  up.  The  Half-breed,  Castro,  upbraids 
Natoma  for  going  with  the  white  people,  but  she 
spurns  him. 

The  second  act  opens  in  Santa  Barbara  before  the 
dawn.  There  is  a  solo  by  Natoma,  a  drunken  row 
of  Alvarado  with  the  innkeeper,  a  chorus  of  Spanish 
soldiers,  and  Alvarado  dances  a  habanera.  Paul  sings 
a  tribute  to  the  flag  of  Spain  and  an  ode  to  Barbara. 
The  crowd  dances  the  minuet,  breaking  into  a 
panuelo.  the  dance  of  proposal,  at  the  climax  of 
which,  each  gallant  places  his  hat  upon  the  head  of 
his  lady  love,  though  Alvarado's  is  tossed  aside  by 
Barbara.  Castro  and  Natoma  dance  the  ancient- 
dagger  dance,  Natoma  taking  the  dare  of  Castro. 
Alvarado,  already  having  planned  to  abduct  Barbara, 
is  seen  with  Kagama  untying  the  thongs  from  the 
leather  rail  at  which  she  is  seated.  He  plucks  his 
serape  from  his  shoulders  and  is  preparing  to  throw 
it  about  Barbara,  when  Natoma  witnesses  what  is 
occurring.  _and,  seizing  her  dagger,  springs  upon 
Alvarado  and  strikes  him  dead.  Paul,  with  his 
sailors,  holds  the  crowd  at  bay. 

In  the  third,  and  final  act,  Natoma  is  discovered 
alone  in  the  mission  church,  where,  bathed  in  the 
afternoon  sun  that  is  streaming  through  the  stained 
windows,  she  droons  an  Indian  song.  Father  Peralta 
appears  from  behind  the  altar  as  she  is  invoking  the 
Great  Spirit  to  bring  down  destruction  upon  the 
strangers.  He  exorts  with  her,  and  she  says:  "I  see 
the  way;  there  is  one  I  would  make  happy.  I  have 
spoken."  The  church  fills,  Barbara  and  Paul  kneeling 
with  the  rest  as  the  nuns  file  in  and  take  Natoma 
back  with  them  to  the  convent  and  the  veil.  The 
orchestra  gives  fortissimo  the  notes  of  Natoma's 
Indian  theme  of  fate,  as  Father  Peralta  lifts  his 
hands  in  benediction

Farce  at  the  Belasco. 

The  night  of  October  24th,  the  Los  Angeles 
Belasco  stock  company,  headed  by  Lewis  S.  Stone, 
and  featuring  in  the  title  role  the  new  leading 
woman,  Eleanor  Gordon,  began  the  presentation  of 
Shubert's  laughing  success,  "The  Bluse  Mouse,"  by 
Clyde  Fitch.  The  play  is  woven  around  a  railroad 
office  attache  who,  needing  the  money  which  his 
wife's  dowry  will  bring,  learns  that  his  father-in-law 
will  not  give  this  dowry  until  he — the  husband — is 
promoted  to  the  position  of  superintendent,  and 
accordingly  he  institutes  a  search  for  a  way  in  which 
this  promotion  may  be  accomplished.  He  learns  that 
the  railroad  president  likes  to  flirt  with  the  pretty 
wives  of  his  employees,  but  not  wishing  to  involve 
hisown  wife  in  a  flirtation,  employs  a  Salome  dancer, 
known  as  the  "Blue  Mouse,"  whom  he  introduces  as 
his  wife — and  then  the  fun  comes  thick  and  furious. 
Eleanor  Gordon  appears  as  the  '"Blue  Mouse,"  put 
down  in  the  cast  as  Paulette  Devine,  a  Salome 
dancer;  Lewis  Stone  impersonates  the  young  hus- 
band, and  Frank  Camp  the  railroad  president.  The 
whole  company  appears  to  excellent  advantage,  and 
the  audience  is  kept  in  a  continuous  state  of  laugh- 
ter, owing  to  the  many  ludicrous  situations  brought 
about. 

Pinero's  great  play,  "The  Gay  Lord  Quex,"  will 
succeed  the   ■"Blue   Mouse." 


At  the  Los  Angeles  Theater. 

Los  Angeles'  popular  vaudeville  house,  the  Los  An- 
geles, presented  an  exceptionally  good  bill  the  week 
of  October  24th,  in  the  nature  of  a  road  show.  Every 
act  was  a  top-liner,  and  the  usual  crowded  bouses 
were  in  order. 

For  the  week  commencing  Monday  afternoon,  Octo- 
ber 31st,  the  bill  will  include:  Madame  Jenny's 
cats  and  monkey  circus,  introducing  trained  angora 
cats  and  monkeys;  Lester  &  Moure,  in  laughable 
quips  and  timely  song  hits;  Leonard,  Louie  and  Gil- 
little,  the  athletic  collegians;  Hughes  musical  trio, 
instrumental  virtuosos;  Hallen  &  Hayes,  the  funniest 
of  funny  men;  Martin  &  Maxmilian,  comical  trick- 
sters, and  the  always  enjoyable  langh-o-scope. 


"A  Mock  Trial"  for  Homeless  Children. 
The  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  Central 
Committee  on  Homeless  Children  are  indebted  to 
Wilbur  C.  Wall  of  Stockton  for  one  hundred  copies 
of  "A  Mock  Trial,"  written  by  him.  These  books 
were  given  to  aid  the  children's  cause  in  which  he  is 
much   interested,  and  were  distributed  to   Parlors   in 


WILBUR  C.  WALL,  Author  of  "A  Mock  Trial" 

the  interior,  whence  calls  had  been  made  for  sugges- 
tions for  entertainments  to  be  given  on  Children's 
Day.  "A  Mock  Trial"  is  one  of  the  most  laughable 
and  enjoyable  skits  that  could  possibly  be  staged 
by  local  talent.  The  story  is  based  on  a  famed 
and  sensational  breach  of  promise  suit  entitled, 
"Delieia  Fewclothes  vs.  Charles  Stringbeans,"  and 
the  case  comes  up  for  hearing  before  Judge  Graft  in 


1 
I 


the  Inferior  Court  of  the  County  of  Discord,  State  of 
Discontent. 

Reports  have  come  from  Calistoga  to  the  effect 
that  a  large  audience  listened  to  this  trial,  and 
thoroughly  enjoyed  the  arguments  of  the  eminent 
attorneys,  among  whom  was  the  Hon.  Reese  Clark, 
leading  attorney  for  the  prosecution. 

General  Winn  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  of  Antioch,  in 
putting  on  the  same  play,  October  17th,  raised  a  large 
sum  for  the  fund.  The  author  of  "A  Mock  Trial" 
gave  the  closing  argument  for  the  prosecution  in  a 
very  able  manner,  and  one  of  the  best  features  of

constituted  the  "Spinach  Quartette."  Their  rendi- 
tions of  "John  Browu's  Body,"  "Old  Oaken  Bucket" 
and  "Maggie  May"  proved  them  worthy  of  their  title, 
"vocalists."

tofore  made  too  establish  firmly  the  manufacturing 
iiml  productive  industries  of  California,  much  re 
mains  to  be  accomplished  and  in  starting  the  move- 
ment for  genera]  co-operation,  the  Some  Industry 
League  is  really  seeking  to  advance  the  welfare  of 
the  entire  country,  as  il  follows  naturallj  thai  the 
larger  the  Bale  of  our  products  :it  home  and  abroad 
the  larger  our  exports  and  the  more  raw  materials 
and  other  products  we  will  import  into  this  State, 
as  an  exchange  of  commodities  is  the  life  of  t  rade 
and,  in  order  to  carry  out  the  plans  of  the  League, 
branches  will  be  forme. 1.  at  an  early  date,  through 
OUt  the  entire  Stal  e. 

A  Campaign  of  Education. 

We  have  but  entered  upon  a  general  educational 
campaign,  as  products  of  inferior  quality  every- 
where must  gradually  give  way  to  those  of  greater 
worth  and  it  will  be  within  the  province  of  the 
League  to  assist  manufacturers  in  making  known 
t"i  rectly  the  actual  value  of  their  respective  lines. 
as  it  has  been  found,  not  only  in  <  !alifora.a  but 
elsewhere,  that  the  manufacturers  who  are  success- 
ful are  those  who  make  their  product s  known  to 
the  world,  for  however  meritorious  a  product  may 
be  it  cannot  be  sold  in  large  quantities  if  unknown 
to  i  he  public.  One  of  the  greatest  difficulties  which 
manufacturers  and  people  alike  will  have  to  over- 
come will  be  the  disposition  on  the  part  of  some 
dealers  to  sell  the  products  which  afford  them  the 
Largest  profits,  regardless  of  quality,  but  it  is  mani- 
festly to  the  interest  of  each  purchaser  to  get  full 
value  for  his  money  and  it  may  be  confidently  pre- 
dicted that  such  dealers  will  be  forced  to  supply 
i  In-  noods  demanded  by  the  people  or,  failing  to  do 
so,   to    lose   their    patronage. 

The  manufacturer  located  in  California,  surrounded 
by  a  large,  intelligent  and  sympathetic  population, 
acting  in  conjunction  with  the  League  and  t lie  Na- 
tive  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West, 
will  be  able  to  establish,  if  earnest  and  active  in 
his  efforts,  a  profitable  business  for  himself  and  help 
to  upbuild  the  entire  community,  which  is  the  main 

pill). use     of     the      League,      roluposed     aS     it     is     of     the 

captains  of  industry   who  wish  to  do  their  part  for 
the  common  good.

MEETING  TO  CHOOSE  SUCCESSOR. 

There  is  c\  ei  \  probability  t  hat  a  meet  ing  of  all 
the  Southern  California  delegates  to  the  Lake  Tahoe 
Grand  Parlor  of  the  N.S.G.W.  will  lie  held  in  Los 
Angeles.  November  5th,  for  the  purpose  of  select- 
ing some  member  of  the  Order  from  that  part  of 
the  State,  who  will  be  recommended  to  the  Board 
of  i  irand  Olficers  as  a  successor  to  Grand  Trustee 
Nathan  P.  Bundy,  lately  deceased. 

Mr.  Bundy  was  the  choice  of  the  delegates  at  the 
Grand  Parlor  session,  and  it  is  genera  llv  conceded 
that  they  should  have  a  voice  in  the  selection  of 
his  successor.  While  the  Board  of  Grand  Officers 
has  the  power  to  fill  the  vacancy,  there  i-  no  doubt 
but  that  tlie  members  of  t he  board  would  appoint 
the  choice  of  these  delegates,  as  it  has  been  practi 
cally  agreed  that  the  honor  should  go  to  some 
Southern   California   member. 

There   are   several   seekers   after   the   position,   and

(EDITED  BY  HARRY  J.  LELANDE.) 


HE  BASEBALL  CHAMPIONSHIP  OF 
the  world  belongs  to  the  Philadelphia 
elub  of  the  American  League.  They 
clinched  the  big  pennant  last  Sunday, 
October  23rd,  in  the  final  game  of  the 
series,  scoring  seven  runs  to  two  for 
the  Chicago  Nationals.  Five  games 
were  played  and  the  Eastern  young- 
sters took  four  of  them  by  outbattiug, 
outfielding  and  outrushing  the  veteran 
Chieagoans.  They  got  the  "jump"  at 
the  start,  and  although  Chicago 
punctuated  their  progress  with  a  defeat  Saturday, 
it  really  did  not  change  the  situation  a  bit. 

The  performance  of  Coombs  of  the  Philadelphias, 
in  pitching  and  winning  three  of  a  five-game  series 
is  probably  unique.  He  had  but  one  day's  rest  be- 
tween the  second  and  third  games,  but  three  days 
intervened  between  the  third  game  and  Sunday's 
exhibition.  He  had  better  control  in  the  last  game 
than  in  the  previous  contests,  and  fooled  the  oppos- 
ing batters  when  hits  meant  runs.  Brown,  for  Chi- 
cago, pitched  excellent  ball,  except  in  the  disastrous 
eighth,  and  the  holocaust  of  that  inning  was  by  no 
means   entirely  his   fault. 

Chicago's  failure  in  the  series  can  be  laid  to  one 
cause — the  weakness  of  the  pitchers.  The  club  has 
maintained  its  place  in  the  National  League  race  by 
getting  an  odd  run  or  two  in  small-score  games. 

Interest  in  the  series  was  intense  throughout  the 
country,  and  immense  crowds  attended  the  contests. 
Vhe  gate  receipts  ran  up  to  $79,071,  60  per  cent 
going  to  the  Philadelphians  and  40  per  cent  to  the 
Chieagoans.  Following  are  the  official  averages  for 
the   series :

In  the  final  defeat  of  Chicago,  Coombs,  the  Phila- 
delphia pitcher,  who  already  had  won  two  games, 
threw  only  120  balls  to  the' plate,  while  Brown,  the 
Cub  twirler,  in  his  effort  to  stop  the  men  who  finally 
became  champions,  hurled  142.  As  compared  with 
the  former  game,  Coombs'  twirling  was  about  equal. 
On  Monday,  at  Philadelphia,  Bender  threw  120  balls 
to  the  plate.  On  Tuesday,  Coombs  threw  151,  the 
game  in  which  he  gave  nine  bases  on  balls.  On 
Thursday  he  threw  120,  and  on  Saturday  Bender 
heaved   110. 

Chicago  pitchers  in  the  opening  game  threw  101 
balls  to  the  batters;  on  Tuesday,  149,  and  on  Satur- 
day. 135,  as  against  142  Sunday.  During  the  series 
tlic  Chicago  pitchers  threw  659  balls  to  the  plate, 
as  compared  with  621  by  the  Athletics. 


Coast  League  Nears  End. 
The  Pacific  Coast  League  season  is  about  con- 
cluded, and  from  all  indications  the  Ducks  of  Port- 
land will  be  the  new  champions,  with  Oakland  second, 
third  place  undecided — as  the  race  between  Vernon 
and  San  Francisco  is  close,  the  advantage  being  with 
Vernon  at  this  writing — and  Los  Angeles  and  Sacra- 
mento bringing  up  the  rear,  in  the  order  named.

Many   Mountain   Lions   Killed. 

Charles  A.  Vogelsang,  chief  deputy  warden  of  the 
State  Fish  and  Game  Commission,  addressed  the 
San  Francisco  Commercial  Club  at  a  recent  luncheon, 
on  the  propagation  of  fish  and  game.  He  reviewed 
the  history  of  the  Commssion  since  its  organization 
in  1870,  and  quoted  the  United  States  Commission 
of  Fisheries  as  authority  for  the  statement  that  this 
State's  salmon  work  leads  the  world. 

California,  said  the  speaker,  ranks  second  among 
the  states  in  the  issuance  of  licenses  for  hunters, 
the  total  last  year  being  128,000.  This  revenue,  with 
fines,  he  said,  makes  the  Commission,  with  more 
than  100  employees,  practically  self-sustaining.  There 
have  been  killed  up  to  date  11.022  mountain  lions, 
with  a  bounty  of  $2  a  head.  It  is  estimated  that 
each  mountain  lion  kills  on  an  average  156  deer  a 
year. 


Phoenix  Road  Race. 
The  Los  Angeles-Phoenix  automobile  road  race 
is  attracting  great  attention,  and  there  are  numerous 
entries  for  the  event.  The  start  will  be  made  from 
Second  and  Spring  streets,  Los  Angles,  at  midnight 
of  November  5th.  The  Maricopa  Automobile  Club 
is  handling  the  affair.  Everything  is  being  done  to 
make  the  race  a  success,  and  checkers,  where  cars 
can  register,  will  be  stationed  at  San  Bernardino, 
Dos  Palms  and  Chuckawalla.  All  ears  reaching  Mecca 
will  have  their  entrance  fees  refunded,  as  also  will

The  annual  football  contest  between  the  teams  of 
the  University  of  California  and  the  Leland  Stan- 
ford, Jr.,  University,  will  take  place  November  12th. 
This  year's  event  is  looked  forward  to  with  great 
interest  by  the  friends  of  both  institutions,  as  well 
as  football  fans  generally,  and  draws  an  imnipnsc 
crowd.  This  year  the  teams  of  both  universities  are 
said  to  be  exceptionally  well  trained,  and  a  close 
and   exciting  contest   is   looked   forward  to. 


State  Rifle  Shoot. 
Rifle  shots  from  all  over  California  will  gather  at 
San  Jose,  October  31st,  in  the  annual  State  rifle 
shoot,  under  the  auspices  of  the  San  Jose  Rifle  elub, 
$3000  in  cash  and  merchandise  prizes  being  awarded 
the  winners.  The  biggest  attendance  ever  at  a  State 
shoot  is  promised  by  the  entries. 


CALIFORNIA  CHARTED  AS  A  HUGE  ISLAND. 

Ancient  Map  of  the  World  Given  to  the  Chamber  of 
Commerce. 

When  George  III  was  Prince  of  Wales,  he  believed 
California  was  an  island.  That  the  prince  shared 
this  ignorance  with  all  the  world,  is  shown  in  the 
handsome  map  made  in  his  father's  reign  and  in- 
scribed to  "George,  Prince  of  Wales,"  which  now 
hangs  on  the  walls  of  the  Los  Angeles  Chamber  of 
Commerce.  The  antiquity  was  presented  to  the 
Chamber  by  W.  C.  Dickerson,  a  local  photographer. 
The  map  is  an  heirloom,  and  has  been  yellowing  on 
the  walls  of  Mr.  Dickerson's  family  homes  for  years. 
It  is  correct,  so  far  as  Europe.  Africa  and  part  of 
the  Atlantic  coast  of  America  is  concerned,  but  the 
western  world  is  the  subject  of  vague  guesses  or 
wild    dreams. 

California,  on  this  map,  is  a  pretty  island  with 
scalloped  edges,  which  lies  not  far  from  the  equator. 


The  Mississippi  River,  labeled  the  Maschas  River, 
was  evidently  drawn  where  it  would  look  best,  for 
it  wanders  all  over  the  map,  from  the  Rocky  Moun- 
tains to  the  Appalachian  Range,  finally  emptying, 
as  it  should,  however,  into  an  inaccurate  Gulf  of 
Mexico.  Pretty  conical  hills,  labeled  "\Rocky  Moun- 
tains," are  dispersed  artistically  over  the  document, 
from  Nevada  to  Lake  Huron.  Canada  looks  lame 
and  empty  in  the  northwestern  part,  where  its 
boundaries  fade  off  into  white  space,  and  is  labeled 
generally  "New  Yorkshire."  Greenland,  which  had 
been  discovered  some  500  years  when  the  map  was 
published,  has  one  spot  on  its  coast  drawn  authentic- 
ally, while  the  remainder  stretches  toward  the  North 
Pole  in  pretty  but   improbables  curves. 

The  map  is  without  a  date,  except  for  its  inscrip- 
tion to  the  Prince  of  Wales,  who  became  King 
George  in  about  the  middle  of  the  seventeenth 
century. 


HALF   GUILTY;    HALF  INNOCENT. 

The  Amusing  Verdict  of  a  Jury  in  an  Early-Day 
Robbery   Trial  in   California. 

One  of  the  good  stories  in  circulation  in  Califor- 
nia in  the  late  '60s,  told  of  the  trial  of  a  man  named 
Danks,  at  Yuba  City,  for  burglary.  He  had  worked 
for  a  miner  named  Jim  Briller,  who  lived  in  a  tent 
and  had  a  sack  of  gold  dust  valued  at  $S0  concealed 
beneath  the  bunk,  the  hiding  place  of  which,  becom- 
ing known  to  Danks,  the  latter  cut  a  slit  in  the 
tent  and,  thrusting  his  head  and  shoulders  through 
the  opening,  stole  the  sack,  but  was  discovered  while 
committing  the  theft.  As  the  trial  progressed  and 
counsel  for  the  prisoner  became  aware  of  the  facts, 
he  asked  Briller: 

"How  far  did  he  get  in  when  he  took  the  sack 
of    dust?" 

Briller  replied:  "He  was  stooping  over,  with  about 
half  his  body  in." 

The  prisoner's  counsel  now  demanded  the  discharge 
of  the  defendant,  as  the  allegations  of  the  indict- 
ment charged  him  with  entering  a  dwelling  with 
intent  to  steal,  while  the  evidence  showed  that  half 
of  his  body  was  never  inside  of  the  dwelling. 

The  judge,  after  considering  the  matter  awhile, 
finally  concluded  to  refer  it  to  the  jury  to  decide, 
and  the  jury,  after  deliberating,  brought  in  a  ver- 
dict, reading:  "Guilty  as  charged,  from  the  waist 
up." 

The  judge  then  sentenced  the  guilty  half  to  two 
and  a  half  years  in  San  Quentin  State  Prison,  leav- 
ing it  optional  with  the  prisoner  to  take  his  legs 
with   him.

LOYALTY  TO  THE  STATE 
THROUGH   ITS  INDUSTRIES 

(Continued  from  Page  4,  Column  :}.) 

sending   t  heir    represent  atives    to    i  he   Coast    to   get 

aoi i  the  business.    The  fire  and  great  catastrophe 

of  1906  destroyed  the  bulk  of  the  factories.  Man; 
of  those  that  survived  went  down  in  the  crash  of 
1907.  There  were  a  few  that  went  to  the  interior 
eities  of  the  State,  and  to  Los  Angeles,  and  to  the 
Northwest  states,  and  some  East  ;  but  no  matter, 
we   have  lost   the  great  majority  of  them. 

During  the  time  of  the  disorganization  period  fol- 
lowing the  tire,  the  inHux  of  Eastern  manufacturers' 
agents  was  very  great.  The  local  plants  had  not 
y.-t  been  restored.  The  demand  for  goods  was  great 
and  consequently,  of  the  goods  purchased,  the  great- 
est portion  of  the  manufactured  commodities  were 
necessarily  purchased  from  the  East.  The  East  got 
the  trade,  and  still  holds  it.  The  same  condition 
applied  to  the  jobbers,  wholesalers  and  retailers,  to 
a  certain  extent,  but  not  to  such  a  demoralizing  de- 
gree as  to  the  manufacturers.  The  jobber,  whose 
little  equipment  was  readily  rehabilitated,  and  who 
bought  quite  a  bit  from  the  State  manufacturers  in 
the  old  days,  now  purchases  all  of  his  commodities 
except  a  few  "lill-ins"  from  the  East,  and  is  back 
to  a  firmly  normal  basis  of  business,  while  the  poor 
depleted    manufacturer    is   out    of    it    entirely.      TIip 

-i -    in    the    interior    of    California    and    along    the 

toast,  south  and  north,  in  Alaska  and  the  Orient, 
t hat  formerly  bought  from  San  Francisco  manufac- 
turers, got  in  the  habit  of  buying  from  the  East  and 
the  North,  filled  in  the  old  lines  with  similar  com- 
modities from  those  points,  and  will  not  change  back 
to  t he  old  ones  for  any  inducement,  which  further 
means  a  permanent  loss  in  most  every  case  to  the 
California  manufacturers.  This,  however,  is  not  the 
only  source  of  trade  loss,  but  the  great  jobbing, 
wholesale  and  retail  centers  of  San  Francisco  itself 
are  al  present  more  than  ever  buying  from  the  East. 
¥et  while  the  retailer,  who  is  dependent  upon  the 
purchasing  power  of  the  community — which  is  cre- 
ated by  the  number  of  employed  in  manufacturing — 
is  suffering  with  the  manufacturer,  he  apparently 
does  not  realize  the  cause  of  it  and  continues  to 
buy  his  commodities  from  the  East  in  preference  to 
the  state  manufacturer  that  keeps  him  alive,  never 
realizing   that    every    dollar    he   sends   away   goes   to 


build    up   another    manufacturing   community,    to    his 
detriment. 

Great  Imposition  Permitted. 

These  are  some  of  the  principal  reasons  of  San 
Francisco's  loss  of  business  manufactories  and  a  re- 
sultant holdingback  of  the  industrial  development  of 
the  entire  State  and  a  natural  retarding  of  the 
growth  of  its  population.  This  is  more  serious  than 
we  imagine.  'The  effect  is  distressing.  The  State  is 
also  seriously  affected  by  the  sending  East  and  even 
abroad  of  its  many  products  and  raw  materials  to 
be  there  manufactured  and  shipped  back  to  us  for 
our  consumption,  labeled  as  the  product  of  the  lo- 
cality in  which  they  were  manufactured  and  packed. 
Think  of  the  imposition!  Reputations  of  other  parts. 
builded  upon  the  products  of  the  hills  and  valleys  >i 
California,  and  that  reputation  even  established  in 
the  minds  of  Calif ornians  by  the  placing  in  their 
mouths  of  the  products  of  their  own  State  falsely 
labeled.  California,  the  market  garden  of  the  en- 
tire world,  it  seems,  is  placed  in  this  position  because 
sh.-  has  not  the  manufacturing  establishments  that 
can  profitably  carry  on  a  business,  and  all  because 
of  the  fact  that  Californians  do  not  buy  the  goods 
that   are   manufactured   in   California. 

Do  all  of  us  realize  that  Oregon.  Washington.  Ida- 
ho and  British  Columbia  are  attracting  people  and 
developing  their  resources  and  manufacturing,  and 
thai  China  and  Japan  are  growing  and  manufactur- 
ing commodities  that  they  once  purchased  from  Cali- 
fornia, and  that  Alaska  is  buying  nearly  altogether 
from  Washington,  Oregon  and  British  Columbia; 
that  Wyoming,  Nevada,  Colorado.  New  Mexico  and 
Texas  are  buying  their  jobbing  and  manufacturing 
commodities  from  the  East?  These  facts  we  can't 
lose  sight  of  or  forget.  But  far  worse  and  shame- 
fully deplorable  is  the  fact  that,  little  as  our  State 
manufacturers  sell  to  sister  States  or  foreign  coun- 
tries, they  sell  less  to  our  own  people.  Is  this  loy- 
alty to  California?  Is  this  loyalty  to  ourselves  and 
our  families-.'  I  must  go  further  and  ask.  is  this 
sanity? 

Do  we  stop  to  think  that  the  development  of  our 
dairy  farms,  conservation  of  forests,  the  cultivation 
of  hay.  barley,  beets,  hops,  beans,  wool,  honey. 
raisins,  olives,  nuts,  prunes,  dried  fruits,  deciduous 
fruits,  truck  gardening  and  the  development  of  gold 
dredging  and  lumber  forests,  the  wine  and  oil  indus- 
tries, are  greatly  dependent  upon  manufacturing  that

Every  time  you  buy  products  labeled  "Made  in

home  industries  by  demanding  HOME  PRODUCTS. 
This  is  the  best  way  every  loyal  Californian  can 
insure  his  State's  prosperity.  HOME  INDUSTRY 
means  more  factories,  more  workingmen,  and  more 
employment  at  better  wages.  Bear  this  in  mind, 
and  see  that  California  products  are  used  exclusively 
in  your  home.

DRINK  HABIT 

The  Gatlin  Treatment  Cures  Liquor  Drinking  in  THREE  DAYS  Under 
Contract — No  Hypodermic  Injections  or  Other  Disagreeable  Features 

The  Gatlin  Institute  was  established  eleven  years  ago.  More  than  eleven  thousand  men  and 
women  have  been  cured  of  liquor  drinking  by  the  Gatlin  treatment — there  has  been  failure  to  cure 
in  no  case. 

No  hypodermic  injections;  no  bad  after  effects,  no  poisonous  drugs,  no  substitutive  stimulants — 
a    treatment   so    harmless   that    any    child   could   take  it. 

Each  patient  is  accepted  for  treatment  under  legal  contract  to  cure  in  THREE  DAYS — the 
cure  to  be  entirely  satisfactory  in  every  particular  or  the  fee  paid  is  refunded  when  the  patient 
is  leaving  the  institute  and  treatment  costs  nothing. 

The  Gatlin  Home  treatment  is  just  as  effective  as  Institute  treatment  if  plain,  simple  direc- 
tions are  followed. 

Call  or  write  for  books  of  particulars,  copies  of  contracts  to  cure  and  other  information.

Loyalty  to  the  State  Through  Its  Industries 


(Continued  from  Page  27,  Column  2.) 

provides  the  employing  element  and  increasing  of 
the  population  that  makes  the  market?  One  farm 
and  its  attendant  employment  of  .labor  will  increase 
our  population  to  a  great  extent,  but  one  new  man- 
ufacturing plant,  with  its  attendant  labor,  will  in- 
crease our  population  to  a  still  greater  extent. 

No  doubt  there  are  many  of  us  who  do  not  keep 
in  mind  the  fact  that  the  State  of  California  has  a 
scant  two  millions  of  people  with  only  72,542  farms, 
and  that  there  is  comfortable  room  for  more  than 
twenty  millions  of  people  and  633,420  farms.  Nor 
are  many  of  us  aware  that  in  the  entire  State  of 
California  we  have  only  a  few  more  than  five  thous- 
and factories,  employing  about  fifty-three  thousand 
people,  which  is  about  the  same  number  that  San 
Francisco  alone  had  six  years  ago.  Is  that  healthy 
manufacturing? 

"Where  are  the  exports  of  manufactured  commodi- 
ties we  should  have?  In  the  year  1909  the  United 
States  exported  about  $12,000,000  of  manufacured  ar- 
ticles to  the  Philippines.  We  venture  to  say  that 
California,  through  the  city  of  San  Francisco,  or  any 
other  city,  did  not  send  two  millions  of  her  own  man- 
ufactured products.  There  really  has  not  been  any 
material  increase,  to  speak  of,  in  our  exports  from 
San  Francisco's  port  since  1891,  when  we  shipped 
commodities  amounting  to  $53,000,000,  and  in  1909, 
$55,114,000.  According  to  the  ratio  of  our  natural 
development,  this  is  in  truth  a  "falling  off."  It  may 
be  attributed  to  our  small  wheat  crop,  as  compared 
to  twenty  years  ago. 

Interest    Must    be    Awakened. 

The  world  hears  of  California  through  its  sun- 
shine, fruit  and  flowers  and  its  wonderful  natural 
resources,  but  has  it  ever  heard  of  its  successful 
manufacturing  or  of  its  many  products  which  excel 
those  of  the  rest  of  the  world?  Does  the  world 
know  what  we  manufacture  ?  Do  our  own  citizens 
know?  I  thnk  I  can  safely  say  they  do  not.  Cali- 
fornia can  and  does  produce  and  manufacture  all 
staple  commodities,  and  while  the  variety  of  her 
manufactured  articles  is  very  great,  the  quantity  is 
only  equal  to  the  demand — very  small.  The  East 
and  foreign  countries  are  putting  you  out  of  busi- 
ness,  Californians.      I    will   correct   that    statement — 


you  are  putting  yourselves  out  of  business.  Is  there 
any  wonder  then,  that  a  Home  Industry  League  has 
sprung  into  being  ?  Some  few  have  awakened  and 
have  banded  themselves  together  under  the  title 
stated,  and  these  few  will  not  cease  their  efforts 
until  thy  have  awakened  the  whole  State.  How  is 
the  State  going  to  develop  its  wonderful  resources? 
Unquestionably,  by  attracting  a  greater  population 
here.  How  can  it  attract  a  greater  population,  if 
it  has  not  manufactories — and  to  obtain  these  manu- 
factories we  must  first  develop,  foster  and  perfect 
the  industries  that  are  here  and  have  been  neglected. 
Develop,  foster  and  perfect  means  only  PATRONIZE. 

Do  you,  does  your  neighbor,  know  that  we  are 
sending  the  greatest  portion  of  our  leather  away  to 
be  manufactured  into  shoes  and  gloves  and  sent  back 
here,  when  we  have  shoe  factories  throughout  the 
State  that  can  equal  the  shoes  of  any  other  State, 
and   gloves   as   well  ? 

Do  you  think  that  San  Francisco  retailers  buy  the 
gloves  that  are  manufactured  here?  As  one  manu- 
facturer said,  'If  I  depended  on  San  Francisco  for 
my  glove  business  I  should  starve,  and  yet  I  employ 
one  hundred  people  who  are  buying  every  day  from 
the  retailer  and  other  tradesmen  who  do  not  buy 
my  commodity.  It  is  strange,  when  I  sell  them 
East,  North,  and  South."  The  same  applies  to  the 
shoe  man,  and  in  fact,  to  every  other  manufacturer 
in   our   State. 

And  in  ladies'  wearing  apparel,  such  as  cloaks,  suits, 
hose,  underwear,  aprons,  cloth,  shoes,  furs,  hats,  knit- 
ted goods,  robes,  ruching,  silks,  skirts,  theatrical  cos- 
tumes, do  our  Native  Daughters  know  that  Califor- 
nia manufactures  all  of  these  and  that  they  can 
make  increased  manufacturing  if  they  will  ask  for 
them  in  the  stores?  Do  the  women  also  know  that 
California  also  manufactures  every  article  to  fur- 
nish the  household,  such  as  furniture,  lamp  fixtures, 
bedding,  bedsteads  (iron,  wood  and  brass),  willow- 
ware,  vacuum  cleaners,  ranges  and  stoves,  refriger- 
ators, rattan  goods,  pianos,  and  incidentals,  paints, 
oils,  shutters,  doors,  mirrors,  rugs,  and  everything 
else  that  is  needed  ? 

Also,  that  in  food  products  we  can  compare  with 
and  surpass  any  made  elsewhere,  such  as  salts, 
spices,  vinegar,  pickles,  yeast,  jams,  preserves,  cider, 


butter,  baking  powder,  extracts,  canned  goods  of  all 
kinds,  .glace  fruits,  crackers,  candy,  gelatine,  syrups, 
olive  oil,  cereals,  sausages,  sauces,  sauerkraut,  sugar, 
meats,  fish,  cakes,  pastry,  celery,  coffee,  tea,  cocoa- 
nut,  cocoa,  chocolate,  flour,  paste,  maccaroni,  spag- 
hetti, and  Saratoga  chips.  These  are  but  a  few  of 
the  articles,  and  those  that  come  immediately  to  the 
mind  of  the  writer.  As  for  men.  we  manufacture  all 
their  requirements.  They  need  only  ask  for  them. 
They  will  not  get  them  otherwise. 

"Made  in  California"  Must  Be  Our  Slogan. 

Think  of  the  contracts  that  are  going  East  and 
to  foreign  countries  every  day  from  our  State  in 
building  materials  and  other  commodities.  Thin);  of 
the  marble  that  is  produced  and  finished  in  this 
State — marble  as  fine  as  can  be  produced  anywhere, 
and  omre  durable — and  yet  our  State  Government, 
our  municipalities,  and  private  builders,  have  sent 
and  are  sending  to  foreign  parts  for  ninety  per  cent 
of  the  marble  required.  The  same  might  be  said  of 
nearly  all  other  building  material. 

What  will  our  iron  and  steel  people  do,  who  man- 
ufacture the  best  pumps,  water  wheels,  gas  engines, 
boilers,  and  tanks  made  in  this  country,  if  the 
money  is  given  to  Eastern  manufacturers?  What 
will  the  foundries,  machine  shops,  structural  iron 
shops,  ship  building  yards,  do  for  work?  What  will 
labor  do? 

AVhat  will  our  printers,  engravers  and  lithogra- 
phers do,  if  the  business  houses,  insurance  compa- 
nies, banks,  etc..  continue  to  send  their  work  East? 
Do  these  people  depend  upon  Eastern  communities 
for  their  business?  Will  sending  money  East  in- 
crease the  value  of  our  property  holdings,  building 
and  general  development? 

What  will  the  broom,  brush,  fireworks,  gum,  art 
glass,  glass  bottles,  wagon,  bag,  leather,  saw,  barrel, 
cement,  glue,  blacking,  bolt,  book-binding,  paper  and 
wooden  box,  jewelry,  button,  candle,  card,  casket, 
chair,  cotton,  cigar  and  cigarette,  chemical,  cream  of 
tartar,  cordage,  cordials,  powder,  dredges,  elevator, 
faucet,  brass,  fire  apparatus,  fixtures,  flag,  forging, 
furnace,  match,  hammock,  mattress,  feather,  paint, 
paper,  lead,  perfume,  pipe,  post  card,  putty,  rubber 
stamp,  sail,  sheet  metal,  steel  spring,  suit  case. 
trunk,  wooden  tank,  terra  cotta,  silk  thread,  safe, 
vault  factories,  and  hundreds  of  other  enterprises, 
do  for  business  if  our  own  people  do  not  ask  for 
"Made  in  California"  goods? 

We  are  all  going  along  blindly.  Our  eyes  are  shut 
to  the  seriousness  of  it  all.  The  retailer,  the  jobber, 
and  the  ultimate  consumer  are  not  buying  enough 
California-made  goods.  We  must  promote,  develop, 
produce  and  buy.  We.  all  of  us,  must  demand  and 
purchase  "Made  in  California"  goods,  and  the  imme- 
diate and  greater  prosperity  of  California  and  Cali- 
fornians will   exceed   our  greatest   expectations. 


Grand  Officer  Pays  Visit. 
Grass  Valley — Grand  Trustee  Frank  Rutherford 
paid  and  official  visit  to  Quartz  Parlor,  No.  5S,  Sep- 
tember 27th,  and  found  the  Parlor  in  a  very  flourish- 
ing financial  condition,  and  the  members  full  of  en- 
thusiasm for  the  Order's  work.  There  was  a  large 
attendance,  and  one  candidate  was  initiated.  The 
grand  officer  gave  an  interesting  resume  of  the 
Order's  work,  which  was  listened  to  with  apprecia- 
tion. 


Every  time  you  buy  products  labeled  "Made  in 
California"  you  are  assured  of  the  BEST.  Encourage 
home  industries  by  demanding  HOME  PRODUCTS. 
This  is  the  best  way  every  loyal  Californian  can 
insure  his  State's  prosperity.  HOME  INDUSTRY 
means  more  factories,  more  workingmen,  and  more 
employment  at  better  wages.  Bear  this  in  mind, 
and  see  that  California  products  are  used  exclusively 
in  your  home. 


Every  Loyal  Californian    Will  See   That  His  Ballot  Is  Marked  Thus,

Press  dispatches  tell  us  of  a  California-bound 
tourist  who,  upon  going  to  bed  in  a  Pullman,  hung 
his  pants  near  an  open  window  of  the  berth.  On 
crossing  the  Arizona  desert,  a  stiff  breeze  came 
up  and  the  pants  were  blown  out  onto  the  sands. 
That  in  itself  was  bad,  but  when  we  are  informed, 
further  along  in  the  dispatch,  that  there  were  sixty 
dollars  in  the  pants  pockets,  our  sympathy  turns 
to    horror. 

Just  think  of  the  audacity  of  a  tourist  bound  for 
this  glorious  land  being  blown  in — or  rather  out, 
in  this  instance — right  on  our  threshold!  We  must 
take  some  means  to  prevent  a  recurrence  of  this 
dilemma,  and  see  that  all  necessary  protection  is 
put  around  our  tourists'  money,  at  least  until  they 
get   within   the  State. 

The  best  resolution  with  which  we  can  begin 
1911  is  to  give  strict  attention  to  our  own  faults, 
and  not  be  trying  to  point  out  the  errors  of  others. 
We  all  have  plenty  of  imperfections,  and  can  best 
employ  our  spare  moments  in  trying  to  overcome 
them.  Remember  the  opening  lines  of  the  old  adage 
of  the  "Turkey  and  the  Ant"  and  profit  by  the 
moral  therein: 

"In  otner  men  we  faults  can  spy, 
And  blame  the  mote  that  dims  their  eye; 
Each  little  speck  and  blemish  find, 
To  our  own  stronger  errors  blind."

The  "Made  in  California"  label  is  a  guarantee 
of  the  best.  You  want  the  best,  and  especially  if 
it  is  produced  at  home.  Demand  California 
products  and  get  the  best,  and  at  the  same  time 
benefit  yourself   by   encouraging   home   industries. 

The  Federal  Census  Bureau  seems  loath  to  ad- 
mit the  phenomenal  growth  of  California  cities. 
We  know  there's  a  gooa  reason,  and  that  reason 
is  being  made  known  to  our  Eastern  friends. 
Result:  People  are  shaking  off  the  snows  of  the 
East,  and  scurrying  for  the  sunshine  of  the  Golden 
State.  While  our  population  has  grown  wonder- 
fully, there  is  still  room  for  more  good  citizens. 
Conditions  in  California  were  never  better,  and 
opportunities  are  numberless  and  within  reach  of 
all.

Two  pages  of  a  recent  Sunday  edition  of  a  Los 
Angeles  paper  were  devoted  to  describing  how 
young  ( *  society ' '  married  women  were  searching 
the  orphan  homes  and  foundling  shelters  for  babies 
to  brighten  their  homes.  Isn't  that  disgusting  rot! 
If  these  "society"  folk  are  so  anxious  for  a  baby 
in  their  homes,  why  don 't  they  supply  the  need 
themselves,  in  the  good,  old-fashioned  way.

Transplanting  Grandma  Rose 


(BY    VIRGINIA    V.    ROOT.) 


ERENA  LOWE  HAD  KKHKLLKD 
Serena,  who  had  accepted  mildly 
and  unquestionably  the  duties  that 
fate  anu  the  family  had  put  upon 
her  for  thirty  years.  Grandma 
Nose  stood  at  the  window  and 
wiped  her  eyes  as  she  watched  her 
making  her  way  down  the  hill  to 
the  car  line,  walking  cautiously 
r  Jfi^fe  among  the  brittle  grass  and  patches 
™  of    snow    to    avoid    the    treacherous 

ice  that  coated  the  center  of  the 
road.  It  was  not  yet  a  week  since  Thanksgiving — 
in  fact,  Serena  was  still  carrying  bakeu  chicken 
sandwiches  for  her  lunch— and  yet  she  had  said 
she  didn't  feel  called  upon  to  do  without  the  com- 
forts and  pleasures  of  life  any  longer.  "Comforts 
and  pleasures  of  life,"  when  they  had  a  bigger  pile 
of  wood  than  anyone  else  on  Johnny  Lake  Ridge 
and  were  the  only  family  that  sent  the  washing 
out!  It  was  tempting  Providence  to  talk  like  that. 
Nowadays  young  folks  didn  't  know  what  hard- 
ships were.  If  Serena  hau  lived  in  the  days  when 
her  grandfather  was  a  boy,  and  had  seen  him  stand- 
ing barefooted  in  the  snow  felling  trees  on  this 
very  farm,  she  might  have  been  more  content.  But 
working  in  the  city  aau  probably  oiven  her  strange 
ideas.  One  would  think,  though,  that  she  would 
remember  how  hard  it  was  for  old  people  to  be 
moved,  and  to  leave  the  scenes  and  friends  they 
had  known  all  their  lives.  Serena  didn't  think, 
either,  how  the  awful  summer  heat  would  take  her 
strength,  and  she  had  laughed  at  the  idea  of  earth- 
quakes. 

Never  before  in  her  life  had  Serena  shown  the 
disposition  of  her  father's  family,  but  this  morning 
she  seemed  to  have  an  the  unreasonableness  and 
determination  of  her  aunt,  Abigail  Lowe.  The  idea 
that  a  child  like  her  should  set  up  her  will  that  she 
knew  what  was  best  for  her  grandmother!  The 
trouble  was,  that  this  California  business  offer 
had  made  Serena  selfish.  It  was  hard  to  stand  in 
the  way  of  people's  plans;  it  was  very  hard  to  be 
a  burden.  Having  added  this  last  bit  of  misery  to 
her  load,  Grandma  Rose  sat  down  and  cried  from 
the  depths  of  her  bewildered  and  indignant  old 
heart. 

Ever  since  she  had  been  nineteen,  Serena  Lowe 
had  gone  to  the  city  each  day  to  her  work,  and 
each  night  had  come  wearily  home  to  the  farm- 
house that  Grandma  Rose  had  kept  neat  and  un- 
changed for  over  fifty  years.  At  first  she  had  tried 
to  participate  in  the  occasional  social  events  of 
the  Ridge,  but  after  the  day's  work  and  the  long 
car  ride,  she  soon  found  that  the  exertion  of  dress- 
ing and  going  to  the  homes  of  her  friends  out- 
weighed the  pleasure  she  gained.  Then  came  the 
days  when,  having  grown  away  from  her  old  ac- 
quaintances, she  did  not  care  to  go.  Her  work  as 
a  private  secretary  was  singularly  devoid  of  the 
personal  element  and  without  opportunity  of  meet- 
ing other  young  employees. 

To  get  no  view  of  Life's  drama  except  from  the 
seats  allotted  to  spectators,  becomes  monotonous 
in  time,  and  for  years  Serena  had  had  but  little 
to  tell  her  granumother  in  the  evening  when  they 
reviewed  the  day 's  events  for  each  other,  except 
the  glimpses  of  comedy  and  tragedy  that  had  held 
her  attention  on  the  suburban  cars.  And  the  old 
lady  had  seldom  anything  to  repeat  but  the  gossip 
of  the  grocery  boy  and  the  crop  reports  of  the  man 
who  rented  the  farm.  Once  every  week  there  was  a 
letter  from  "the  children  in  California,"  to  be 
read  before  the  evening  paper,  and  as  regularly  as 
the  pages  were  folded  upon  the  affectionate  fare- 
well. Grandma  Rose  would  exclaim  with  convic- 
tion, "Do  you  know,  Serena,  if  I  were  a  little 
younger  we  would  fo  to  California." 

The  day  that  Grandma  Rose  had  talked  of  most 
of  her  life  and  dreaded  and  anticipated  keenly  by 
turns  ever  since  the  morning  when  Serena  had 
laid  down  the  law,  had  arrived.  She  and  Serena 
sat  in  their  respective  gray  and  blue  serge  suits, 
with  their  wraps  laid  out  upon  the  trunks,  and 
there  was  yet  fifty  minutes  to  wait.  The  atmos- 
phere of  farewell  was  beginning  to  numb  even  their 
neighbor,  Mrs.  Radcliff  's,  conversational  powers, 
when  little  Eunice  Bates,  the  nurse,  hurried  around 
the  house.  A  scurry  of  blackened  leaves  preceded 
her  into  the  kitchen.     Catching  up  the  broom,  she 


darted  here  and  there,  sweeping  thorn  out  against 
the    bitter    wind    and    exclaiming    all    the    while, 

"There,  I  was  too  [ate!  Mother  just  worried  all 
night  brciiiisc  vv  didn't  have  anything  but  current 
jell  for  your  lunch,  and  at  breakfast  she  remem- 
bered the  white  fish.  No,  not  for  lunch  of  course, 
but  she  thought,  seeing  you  were  so  fond  of  it, 
may  lie  it  sin-  u  rapped  it  up  hard  and  fast  you 
could  put  it  in  your  trunk  and  after  you'd  been 
there  awhile  you'd  relish  it.  But  I  see  you've  got 
the   trunks  all   strapped.' 

"Now,  that  was  kind  of  you,  Eunie,  but  never 
mind,  I  have  the  jelly  you  sent.  It  s  likely  the 
last  I'll  ever  have,  so  I  packed  it  in  one  of  my 
new  shoes  to  eat  after  -  get  there.  You  know, 
currants  don't  do  weii  in  California.  I  always  said 
I  liked  currant  jeny   better  than  any  other  kind.'' 

"And  fish,''  exclaimed  ..irs.  Kadcliff,  as  soon  as 
Grandma  Rose's  minoi  tones  had  ceased,  "they  say 
salt  water  fish  can't  hold  a  candle  to  our  lake  fish. 
Nothing  can  except  shad,  and  of  course  that's 
like  oysters,  not  found  on  the  Pacific  Coast.'1 

"The  heat  out  there  don't  agree  with  cats  either. 
That's  one  reason,  Mrs.  Radcliff,  why  I'm  glad 
you're  going  to  live  here.  I'd  so  hate  to  have  old 
Rut'us  moved  in  his  old  age." 

Just  here  Serena  found  an  opportunity  to  check 
the  subtle  tide  of  incrimination  that  had  been  ris- 
ing against  her,  "There,  grandma,  there's  that 
new  comb  you  put  in  the  crack  in  the  window  frame 
when  the  wind  blew  so  nard  night  before  last." 
"Why  *  thought  you  hau  packeu  it!  What  would 
we  have  done  without  a  comb?"  replied  Mrs.  Rose. 

"Serena,"  whispered  Mrs.  Radcliff,  "that  heart 
medicine  I  brought?  I  worry  awfully  about  those 
mountain  heights.  I  haven't  said  anything  about 
it  beiore,  but  1  put-  in  a  .jottle  of  tonic  for  her, 
they  say  the  continued  even  temperature  out  there 
makes  the  blood  so  thin." 

Meanwhile,  little  Miss  Bates  was  continuing, 
"Mrs.  Rose,  you  won't  have  any  troubles  this 
Christmas   in   California. ' ' 

"I'm  afraid  it  won't  seem  like  Christmas,  every- 
thing being  so  different — no  snow  and  no  old 
friends,  but  of  course  I'll  have  the  children,  and 
Serena  will  be  happy." 

' '  You  know,  grandma. " '  retorted  Serena,  ' '  we 
were  alone  last  year.  Your  rheumatism  was  so  bad 
and  we  had  to  stay  at  home  to  keep  the  fires  so 
your  plants  and  the  vegetables  wouldn  't  freeze. 
And  the  Stebbins'  couldn't  come  up  to  dinner  be- 
cause their  water  pipes  burst  and  spoiled  the  par- 
lor ceiling." 

"By  the  way,  Mrs.  Rose,  did  you  get  your  Crim- 
son Rambler  rose  taken  up  so  as  to  take  with  you?" 
inquired  Mrs.  Radcliff. 

"Yes,  but  its  pretty  old  to  transplant,  and  I'm 
afraid  it  won't  grow,  taking  it  at  this  time  of 
the  year." 

"Well,  if  it  does,  I  guess  they'll  think  we  have 
some  pretty  things  in  the  old  Buckeye  State,  after 
all,"  commented  Miss  Bates. 

"I'll  tell  you  one  thing,"  said  Mrs.  Radcliff 
prophetically,  "Grandma  Rose  won't  ever  go  back 
on  her  old  home  the  way  most  of  them  do.  It's 
strange  the  way  folks  get  after  they've  been  in 
California    a    spell." 

Grandma  Rose  was  starting  a  story  about  an 
Irishman  who  said,  "Dang  a  man  who  will  go  back 
on  his  own  countree, "  when  Warren  Radcliff  drove 
into  the  yard  and  began  to  shovel  away  the  snow 
so  as  to  be  able  to  back  his  wagon  to  the  side 
door  for  the  trunks.  His  wife  hurried  for  the 
soap  stones,  while  Eunice  Bates  and  Serena  knelt 
on  the  floor  pulling  on  Grandma  Rose's  new  and  un- 
stretched  black  woolen  tights.  Amid  the  breath- 
less searching  for,  and  adjustment  of,  overshoes, 
kid  gloves,  woolen  gloves,  veils  and  mufflers,  Mrs. 
Radcliff  revolved  frantically  about  the  stove,  mak- 
ing sage  tea  and  alternately  insisting  that  her  hus- 
band drive  down  the  Wool  Hollow  Road,  so  that 
the  travelers  could  get  a  last  view  of  the  ceme- 
tery, and  imploring  forgiveness  for  having  been 
such  a  poor  neighbor. 

When  the  last  embraces  and  tears  were  over  and 
the  wagon  was  jolting  over  the  frozen  ground  and 
creaking  through  the  snow,  Serena  heard  her  grand- 
mother moaning  weakly  under  her  mufHer,  "Oh, 
why  was  I  tempted  to   roam,"  and  her  new-found 


THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


December 


Lowe  determination  weakened,  and  the  responsibil- 
ity of  transplanting  Grandma  Rose  crushed  down 
upon  her  shoulders. 

E\ren  though  parted  from  the  friends  of  seventy 
years  and  torn  from  the  scenes  of  a  lifetime,  with 
eertain  death  awaiting  at  the  first  high  altitude, 
Grandma  Rose  took  a  little  interest  in  passing 
through  Oberlin,  where  Cousin  Harriet  used  to  go 
to  school,  and  by  tne  time  Toledo  was  reached  she 
was  watching  eagerly  for  the  bridge  where  the 
awful  train  wreck  occurred.  She  took  a  melan- 
choly delight  in  pointing  out  to  Serena  that  they 
passed  not  one  sugar  bush  or  Northern  Spy  apple 
orchard  that  compared  to  the  ones  in  Cuyahoga 
County. 

No  argument  could  be  advanced  that  could  ehange 
Grandma  Rose's  uetermination  to  go  tourist. 
( '  Serena  Lowe,  do  you  mean  to  tell  me  you  would 
sit  in  those  plush  seats  for  four  whole  days?  Yes, 
I  know  poor  people  don 't  ride  in  Pullman  cars, 
but  I've  seen  many  and  many  a  person,  who  pre- 
tended to  be  some  and  yet  had  bed  bugs.  How'd 
I  feel  to  be  taking  vermin  into  Nellie's  house? 
If  I'm  going  to  California  at  all,  it'll  be  riding 
on   wicker    seats." 

"You  don't  think,  Grandma,  how  much  colder 
they  are,  and  the  conveniences  in  the  Pullman." 

"I  guess,  with  ah  the  rest  I  have  to  bear,  I  can 
stand  a  little  cold,  and  although  my  folks  were  as 
good  Abolitionists  as  any,  you  don't  think  for  an 


of  the  car.  With  one  spring  she  was  at  his  side 
and  clutching  his  arm.  "Oh,  Martin,  are  you  going 
to  California?"  He  gasped  in  amazement,  and 
nodded,  while  with  a  burst  of  relief  she  implored: 
' '  Can 't  we  go  with  you  ?  You  will  look  out  for 
us  a  little,  won't  you?" 

And  only  Cupid  recalled  that  ten  years  before, 
when  Serena  had  bade  Martin  Leeds  farewell,  she 
had  told  him  that  she  was  perfectly  persuaded  that 
she  was  one  of  the  women  who  could  live  a  strong 
and  happy  life  without  the  aid  of  any  man.  Many 
times  during  the  next  few  days,  when  their  com- 
panion had  been  especially  kind  and  considerate, 
Grandma  Rose  would  explain  :'f(I  used  to  know 
Susan  B.  Anthony  when  I  was  a  girl,  and  we  were 
good  friends,  but  I  will  say  there  are  times  when 
a  man  is  a  help. ' ' 

It  was  the  morning  after  a  California  Christmas, 
and  Grandma  Rose  and  her  daughter  were  sitting 
under  the  pepper  tree  that  shaded  the  garden  be- 
tween their  two  houses.  "It  is  sweet  of  you, 
Nellie,  to  offer  to  write  that  letter  to  M,rs.  Rad- 
cliff  for  me.  Let 's  see,  you  might  write  first,  that 
Mame  Fisher  and  Mrs.  Hart  were  at  the  picnic 
we  had  out  of  doors  on  Christmas  Day.  You  tell  her 
Mame  is  as  stout  as  her  mother  ever  was.  And  won't 
she  be  surprised  to  hear  Mrs.  Hart 's  got  over  her 
asthma. ' ' 

"Maybe  I'd  better  describe  the  place  where  we 


"We  haven't  mentioned  the  holly  and  mistletoe 
and  ferns  the  children  found  for  decorations." 

"There,  I  must  put  in  a  sprig  of  each  in  that  box 
I  send  back.  Between  the  oranges  and  flowers  I 
have  a  layer  of  camphor  leaves,  green  olives,  euca- 
lyptus blossoms,  pepper  berries  and  sea-sheels.  By 
the  way,  how  long  were  those  water  melons  and 
sweet  potatoes  the  boys  were  telling  about?  About 
a  yard,  weren't  they?". 

"Serena  wrote  it  all  down,"  reminded  her  daugh- 
ter. 

"Yes.  I  will  have  to  get  the  paper.  Do  you 
know,  Nellie,  I  was  thinking  while  she  was  writing 
that  she  is  growing  more  and  more  to  look  like 
Abigail  Lowe.     She  was  good  looking,  but  firm." 

"That  white  sweater  Charles  and  I  gave  her  is 
very  becoming,  don't  you  think  so?" 

"Yes.  I  noticed  when  she  and  Martin  came 
back  from  their  walk  up  the  canon,  how  well  the 
red  collar  and  cuffs  brought  out  her  color." 

"Shall  I  tell  Mrs.  Radcliff  about  the  Tourna- 
ment of  Roses?"  inquired  the  amanuensis. 

"Don't  forget  that.  I've  thought  for  quite  a 
spell  that  Jen  Radcliff  thought  I  was  getting  old 
and  childish,  and  I'd  like  to  have  her  know  that 
I'm  going  to  ride  in  the  tournament  parade  in  a 
pony  cart  covered  with  poinsettias  and.  ivy.  Tell 
her  my  dress  is  dark  green,  the  same  as  the  cash- 
mere I  wore  when   I  first  met   Hiram. ' ' 

"I  guess  she'll  know  your  rheumatism  is  better."

instant,  do  you,  tnat  I'd  eat  any  food  that  had 
been  carried  over  the  country  by  a  lot  of  darkles?" 

So  it  was  tnat,  at  eleven  o  'clock  that  night, 
Serena  and  her  grandmother  found  themselves  in 
the  Chicago  depot  in  the  vortex  of  a  mass  Of 
humanity,  laden  with  all  the  heterogeneous 
colonist  paraphernalia,  and  striving  madly  for'  the 
few  remaining  accommodations  on  the  excursion 
train.  Pushed  by  the  crowd  and  directed  by  a 
running  brakeman,  they  reached  the  coach  assigned 
them.  Serena  drew  Grandma  Rose  up  the  steps 
and  looked  within.  It  was  an  old,  plush-upholstered 
Pullman  coach,  pressed  into  service  by  the  un- 
usual demand,  but  even  to  Grandma  Rose's  eyes  this 
was  a  minor  calamity,  for  every  section  overflowed 
with  garlic-scented,  posterity-loving  sons  of  Italy. 
The  babies  cried;  the  women  scolded;  the  men 
smoked,  and  all  drank  "Dago  Red"  freely.  Be- 
tween bundles  and  baskets  of  every  shape,  and 
over  every  kind  of  superfluous  clothing,  Serena  and 
Grandma  Rose  made  their  way  in  search  of  the 
conductor. 

For  fifty  years  Grandma  Rose  had  been  a  member 
of  the  church  that  Alexander  Campbell  had  founded, 
but  in  spite  of  a  thorough  immersion  in  the  Chagrin 
River,  she  still  had  a  little  carnal  nature,  and  the 
Temarks  that  she  made  to  Serena  during  that  in- 
terminable wait  for  the  conductor  were  proof  of 
it.  At  the  end  of  forty  minutes  she  collapsed  onto 
Bier  suit  case  and  began  to  sob:  "The  Lord  is 
dealing  with  me  the  way  He  did  with  Samuel.  He 
is  punishing  me  in  my  old  age  for  bringing  up  a 
disobedient  and  ungrateful  child." 

The  tears  ran  down  Serena 's  cheeks,  and  in 
bitterness  of  soul  she  was  bemoaning  her  Lowe  de- 
termination, when  a  man  appeared,  in  the  doorway 


ate  dinner,"  suggested  her  daughter.  "It  was  about 
four  miles  up  the  canon,  wasn't  it?"  I  never  saw 
a  prettier  place  for  spreading  the  table.  The  white 
sand  around  the  pool  at  the  foot  of  that  big  rock 
was   ideal." 

' '  And  clean,  too. ' ' 

"I  won't  ever  forget  how  Serena  looked  as  she 
gazed  at  the  mountains  and  said  that  not  all  the 
Christmas  sermons  were   found  in  churches." 

"That  was  a  sweet  thing  Martin  quoted.  Some- 
thing about,  'Thine  ancient  temples,  Lord,  that 
move  our  hearts  to  praise. '  Seems  as  if  it  used 
to  be  in  our  old  Kidd's  'Elocution,'  "  mused  Grand- 
ma Rose. 

"Shall  I  say  what  we  had  for  dinner?"  asked 
the   writer. 

"Oh,  yes,  and  tell  her  we  kept  the  chicken  pie 
hot  by  wrapping  it  in  blankets  as  soon  as  we  took 
it  from  the  oven.  That  makes  me  think,  I  must 
send    her    a    fireless    cooker    circular. ' ' 

"Was  there  anything  else  besides  creamed  pota- 
toes, peas,  celery,  olives  and " 

"You're  leaving  out  the  strawberries.  I  went  out 
and  picked  them  Christmas  morning,  as  soon  as 
I'd  seen  the  children's  presents,  just  so  I  could 
write    to    her   about    it. ' ' 

"Oh,  yes.  The  next  course  was  ice  cream  and 
cake. ' 

"You  might  say  we  used  her  pie  crust  recipe  in 
making  the  mince  and  pumpkin  pies." 

"I  suppose  she'll  know  about  the  coffee,  fruit 
and  candy." 

"Nellie,  did  you  ever  think  Martin  Leeds  was 
a  little  extravagant?  That  box  of  candy  he  gave 
Serena  must  have  cost  him  a  pretty  penny,  and  we 
didn't  need  it  at  all." 


"Don't  write  that  I'm  wearing  my  white  tea 
jackets.     She  would  say  I'm  tempting  Providence." 

"There   isn't    anything   else   is   there,   mother?" 

"Nothing  but  the  Crimson  Rambler.  I  never  told 
you,  but  I  brought  along  my  old  vine.  The  day  we 
got  here,  Serena  planted  it  beside  the  heliotrope. 
We  might  go  and  see  how  its  doing." 

"It  looks  as  if  it  were  going  to  start.  I 
shouldn't  be  surprised  if  it  did  splendidly." 

"I  guess  it  will,  if  it  isn't  too  old,"  answered 
Grandma  Rose. 

"Don't  you  know,  mother,"  exclaimed  her  daugh- 
ter tenuerly,  "that  transplanting  to  California  is 
the  best  thing  in  the  wona  for  old  roses?" 

Colusa  Native  Son  Passes  Away. 
William  Caswell  Spaulding,  an  active  and  well- 
liked  member  of  Colusa  Parlor,  No.  69,  N.S.G.W., 
passed  away  in  Colusa,  October  31st.  He  was  a 
native  of  Colusa,  aged  3S  years,  and  practically 
all  his  life  was  spent  in  his  native  city,  where  he 
made  many  friends.  In  addition  to  his  parents, 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  A.  P.  Spaulding,  and  two  sisters, 
deceased  is  survived  by  a  widow  and  two  daugh- 
ters, Anna  Pearl  and  Willie  M-ay  Spaulding.  Colusa 
Parlor  of  Native  Sons  conducted  the  last  sad  rites 
at  the  grave. 


Wiseacres  advise  us  that  there  is  always  room  at 
the  top,  and  the  average  man  when  he  comes  to 
fifty  is  apt  to  find  that  there  is  room  at  the  top 
for  more  hair  than  he  has.

THE      GRIZZLY       BEAR 


Important  Happenings  in  California  Fifty  Years  Ago 


(BY    THOMAS   R.    JONES.) 

HBISTMAS  DAY  IN  I860  ''AMI*: 
on  Tuesday  and  was  as  disagree 
able  as  weather  conditions  could 
make  it.  A  tempest  of  hurricane, 
rain  and  snow  commenced  the  af- 
ternoon of  Christmas  Eve  and  con- 
tinued Pot  two  «lavs.  Reports  from 
all  parts  of  the  State  showed  that 
all  out-door  festivities  wore  aban- 
doned and,  while  services  in  the 
churches  were  fairly  well  attended, 
the  attendance  in  the  well  warmed 
and  lighted  saloons  was  crushing.  In  the  cities, 
especially,  the  increased  number  of  men  under  the 
influence  of  liquor  -was  very  noticeable  and  a  sub- 
ject of  newspaper  comment. 

The  month,  as  well  as  the  winter,  had  been  very 
pleasanl  until  the  15th,  when  clouds  began  to 
gather  ami  a  mild  rain  storm  set  in.  which  broke 
loose  into  a  tempest  on  the  18th.  and  continued 
until  the  22nd.  Streams  had  higher  water  than 
at  any  time  since  1852.  Then  followed  the  heavy 
storm  of  ChristmaB  Day.  and  a  long  list,  of  casu- 
alties from  drowning,  and  destruction  of  property 
by  the  flood  came  in   its  wake. 

Mining  flumes,  ditches  and  other  property,  to 
the  estimated  value  of  $75,000,  went  uown  with 
the  torrents  of  Trinity  County  and  every  mining 
county  in  the  State  suffered  correspondingly. 
Marysville  experienced  severe  damage  to  its  bus- 
iness section  from  wind  and  water,  but  this  was 
a  small  inundation  compared  to  what  was  to  fol- 
low later  in  the  way  of  floods.  Snow  fell  on  the 
Sierra  Nevada  mountains  and  foot  hill  regions  to 
a  record-breaking  depth.  The  theater  at  North 
San  Juan  had  its  roof  crushed  in  by  the  snow  that 
fell   upon   it. 

Many  Job  Chasers. 
The  four  Kepublican  Presidential  electors  that 
had  been  elected  on  the  6th  of  November  met  in 
Sacramento  on  December  5th  and  voted  for  Abra- 
ham Lincoln  for  President  and  Hannibal  Hamlin 
for  Vice  President.  Each  elector  desired  to  be  the 
messenger  to  carry  the  vote  to  Washington,  and  a 
number  of  ballots  had  to  be  taken  to  decide  who 
would  give  way.  Wm.  H.  Weeks,  by  persistently 
voting  for  himself,  finally  was  enabled  to  get  the 
prize,  ami  departed  by  steamer  on  December  11th. 
He  carried  a  trunk  full  of  recommendations  from 
nearly  every  ambitious  Republican  in  the  State 
who  was  after  a  Federal  office,  the  change  in  ad- 
ministration being  expected  to  remove  every  Dem- 
ocrat  and   install  a   Kepublican   in   his  place. 

While  the  political  excitement  in  California  had 
nearly  subsided,  and  the  population  had  in  the 
main  acquiesced  in  the  result,  it  was  rumored  that 
secret  meetings  were  being  held  by  those  who 
looked  forward  to  a  secession  movement  and  de- 
sired to  create  a  Pacific  Republic.  The  news  from 
the  East  was  ominous  of  trouble.  Specie  payment 
hail  been  stopped  by  the  banks,  business  was  in  a 
panicky  state,  and  the  secession  fever  was  becom- 
ing more  malignant  every  day.  The  prevailing 
Union  sentiment  in  California  precluded  any  suc- 
cessful secession  movement  here,  and  the  poli- 
ticians became  interested  spectators  of  events  in 
the  East  rather  than  active  participants  therein. 

The  election  of  a  United  States  Senator  by  the 
next  California  Legislature  became  a  topic  of  dis- 
cussion, but  as  neither  political  party  had  a  ma- 
jority of  the  members-elect,  what  combinations 
would  be  made  was  a  fruitful  subject  of  gossip, 
without  making  any  choice  discernible. 
Mining  Towns  Deserted. 
On  December  3rd  an  election  of  chief  engineer 
of  the  fire  department  of  San  Francisco  took  place. 
It  excited  as  much  interest  there  as  a  presidential 
election.  David  Scannell  was  elected  and  his 
friends  in  Sacramento  fired  a  salute  celebrating  the 
event. 

The  water  war  in  Tuolumne  County  was  still  on. 
The  Tuolumne  County  Water  Co.  was  the  principal 
sufferer,  through  having  an  immense  flume  blown 
up  by  miners  antagonistic  to  it.  Many  men  were 
thrown  out  of  employment  besides  the  miners  who 
were  idle  through  lack  of  water  to  work  their 
mines.  This  had  affected  merchants,  teamsters, 
sawmill  men  and  almost  every  line  of  industry,  and 
the  editor  of  a  Sonoma  paper,  commenting  on  the 
condition  of  affairs,  stated  that  many  of  the  towns 
reminded  a  person  forcibly  of  Goldsmith's  "De- 
serted Village.''  The  streets  were  without  a  sign 
of  life,  except  when  a  lean  and  hungry  hog  or  a 
yelping  cur  appeared.  At  times  some  disconsolate 
looking  storekeeper  or  saloonkeeper  dragged  his 
weary  length  to  the  door  of  his  place  and  looked 
wistfully  up  and  down  the  street  for  a  customer. 
A  fearful  silence  ruled  over  gulch,  creek  and  can- 
yon.    Hushed  were  the  voices  of  the  miners,   the 


music  of  rushing  wain--,  the  click  of  the  shovel,  and 

tin-   thud   of   the   pick.      There   appeared    to    lie   :ii    Ihis 

time  very  little  probability  of  improving  condi 
t  ions  for  several  monl  lis. 

A  shell  mound  was  found  :il I  eighl   miles  from 

Healdsburg  and  a  half-mile  from  the  Russian   B     -  i 

l!  was  about  300  feet  higher  than  the  river,  and 
the  shells  lay  in  stratas  about  two  feet  in  thick 
n  ess    with    a     layer    of    si -a    sand    of    abOUl     the    same 

width  alternating   for  some  distance  down. 

Gas  Came  High  in  Marysville. 
High    living    was    a    subject    of    discussion    then, 
as  it  is  now.     The  San   Francisco  Monitor  expressed 
its    opinion    upon    the    unsatisfactory    condition    of 

things  as  follows:  "Particularizing  the  extrava- 
gance  of  our  times  in  California,  it  must  be  ad- 
mitted that  too  much  money  is  lavished  on  dress, 
balls,  amusements  and  living.  Silks  and  velvets 
form  a  heavy  item  in  the  list  of  our  invoices,  and 
as  a  consequence  a  portion  of  our  population  is 
habited  in  finery  beyond  their  means  and  their 
ability    to    pay    for. 

C.  Copp  and  E.  Gay  of  Dutch  Flat  began  the 
preliminary  work  of  flaming  Bear  River  for  a 
distance  of  fifteen  miles,  in  order  to  work  tailings 
from  the  hydraulic  mines  of  that  section. 

A  turnpike  company  was  organized  to  build  a 
wagon   road  from  Dutch   Flat  to   Virginia  City. 

The  business  men  of  Marysville  formed  an  organ- 
ization to  force  the  gas  company  to  reduce  its 
price.  They  signed  an  agreement  not  to  burn  gas 
until  the  price  was  reduced  to  $9.50  per  1000  feet. 
The  gas  company  proposed  to  compromise  on  $10 
per  1000  feet,  but  the  business  men  did  not  appear 
to    be  delighted. 

The  copper  mines  developed  near  Knights  Ferry 
were  shipping  ore  to  Baltimore  for  smelting. 

There  was  big  excitement  over  the  discovery  of 
an  auriferous  gravel  channel  in  Chili  Gulch,  near 
Mokelumne  Hill.  The  channel  averaged  a  depth 
of  seventy  five  feet  below  the  surface,  and  was 
found  by  sinking  shafts  or  tunneling  for  it.  Six 
dollars  to  the  pan  was  reported  to  be  the  average 
yield,  and  over  200  miners  had  located  claims  for 
a  distance  of  nearly  three  miles  along  the  gulch. 
A  Ift'rge  number  of  these  found  fortunes  in  their 
locations. 

Big    Gold    Finds    Continued. 

Washoe  was  as  prominent  in  the  public  eye  as 
heretofore.  One  hundred  and  fifty  feet  of  the 
Gould  and  Curry  claim  sold  for  $60,000,  or  at  the 
valuation  of  $4000  a  foot. 

A  Grass  Valley  company  made  an  ore  strike  on 
the  Comstock  Lode  that  sent  the  value  of  their 
claim  from  zero  to  $1000  a  foot  in  twenty-four 
hours. 

Twenty  quartz  mills  had  been  built  in  the  dis-. 
trict  during  the  year,  all  of  which  were  pounding 
on  the  ore  being  dug  from  the  Lode. 

Two  miners  working  a  claim  at  Dutch  Flat  took 
out  $918  in  a  nine-days'  run,  hydraulicking. 

At  La  Porte,  four  mining  companies  cleaned  up, 
in  a  seven-days*  washing,  $843S. 

Hughes  and  Co.,  at  Oak  Flat,  Butte  County, 
struck  a  strata  of  gravel  .three  and  one-half  feet 
thick,  that  was  yielding  one  dollar  to  the  pan  and 
was  of  unknown   extent.  ^ 

Robert  Kelly,  at  Timbuctoo,  took  out  of  his 
sluices  $12,500  in  gold  dust  in  a  twelve-days'  run. 

A  nugget  weighing  two  pounds  was  found  on 
Dog  Creek,  Shasta  Countv,  bv  a  miner  named 
O'Niel. 

Five  companies  mining  at  North  San  Juan  took 
out  in  one  week  during  December,  $19,800  in  gold 
dust    . 

The  Pittsburg  claim  at  Potosi,  Sierra  County. 
cleaned  up  $1160  in  one  day's  washing. 

On  Buena  Vista  Flat,  Stanislaus  County,  Hough- 
ton and  Devlin   took  out   $850  in  ten   days. 

During  the  year  1860  the  value  of  gold  dust  de- 
posited in  the  San  Francisco  mint  was  $11,219,500, 
and  silver  bullion  $352,939. 

A  suspension  bridge  over  the  Mokelumne  River 
at  Athearn  's  ferry,  315  feet  in  length,  was  com- 
pleted during  the  month. 

School  Census  a  Half -Century  Back. 

A  Los  Angeles  County  school  census  showed  11S6 
boys  and  1167  girls  between  4  and  IS  years  of  age, 
and  under  4  years  there  was  a  total  of  688;  2396 
were  born  in  California.  A  school  census  of  San 
.lose  showed  704  children  between  4  and  18  years 
of  age,  and  334  under  4  years  of  age;  635  were 
born  in  California.  The  school  census  of  Sacra- 
mento showed  3960  children  between  4  and  IS  years 
of  age,   and  2001   under  the  age  of  4. 

During  the  year  a  record  kept  of  the  emigrants 
passing  the  Honey  Lake  gatewey  into  the  Sacra- 
mento   Valley   showed   450   wagons   containing   277 


families.     There  were  with  them  135  young  women

Three  hundred  sacks  of  sweet  potatoes  were  im- 
ported from  Japan  by  a  San  Francisco  firm,  to  be 
used  for  seed  purposes. 

John  Reynolds,  a  blacksmith  at  Nevada  City, 
while  busy  at  his  forge,  had  the  seat  of  his  trousers 
ii  ii  tire  by  a  spark.  It  was  not  noticed  until 
the  blaze  had  become  too  large  to  extinguish  and 
before  the  pants  could  be  removed,  he  was  so 
seriously  burned  as  to  necessitate  his  removal  to 
a  hospital  with  a  probability  that  he  would  be 
crippled   for   life. 

An  Indian  working  on  a  ranch  near  Santa  Cruz 
was  bitten  on  the  finger  by  a  tarantula.  lie  used 
the  Indian  remedy  for  such  poisoning,  and  ate  the 
tarantula.      He    is   said    to    have    recovered. 

A  man  named  Kenley  was  seriously  injured  in  a 
fight  with  a  grizzly  bear  near  Sebastopol,  Sonoma 
County. 

A  grizzly  was  killed  on  Pine  Creek,  in  Tehama 
County,  by  E.  E.  Tuber. 

The  steam  tug  Diana  exploded  its  boiler  in  San 
Francisco  Bay,  December  21st,  and  killed  two  men. 

Crime  Keeps  Pace  With  Progress. 

A  miner  at  Central  Hill,  Calaveras  County,  eloped 
with  another  miner's  wife,  who  was  the  mother  of 
seven  children.  She  took  three  children  with  her 
and  began  housekeeping  with  her  paramour  a  few 
miles  from  her  husband's  home.  On  December  20th 
the  woman 's  lover  was  found  dead  upon  a  trail 
leading  from  his  cabin  to  his  mine.  Seven  bullets 
had  been  fired  into  his  breast  within  a  space  the 
size  of  a  man's  hand.  The  husband  was  arrested, 
but  a  coroner's  jury  exonerated  him  in  quick  time 
and  he  was  never  prosecuted. 

A  large  number  of  highway  robberies  and 
burglaries  were  reported  from  different  sections  of 
the  State,  but  only  a  few  were  of  importance.  A 
miner  named  McKee  Kaney  was  stopped  by  six 
highwaymen  on  the  road  near  Mokelumne  Hill  on 
December  10th  and  robbed  of  $700. 

T.  J.  Smith,  enroute  from  Carson  Valley,  was  met 
by  three  highwaymen  on  the  night  of  December 
16th,  about  two  miles  from  Placerville,  and  robbed 
of  $6300  he  was  carrying  in  a  sack  on  his  person. 

A.  J.  King,  a  money  lender  in  San  Francisco,  had 
his  office  burglarized  and  $10,000  in  pledges  and 
securities  taken.  He  took  the  matter  quite  philo- 
sophically, stating  the  loss  would  fall  on  his  credi- 
tors, as  he  would  be  unable  to  pay  his  indebted- 
ness to  them. 

Dr.  J.  P.  Wierzbicki,  author  of  the  first  book 
printed  in  California,  died  in  San  Francisco  Decern 
ber  26th. 

Ex-Governor  J.  B.  "Weller  was  appointed  by  Presi- 
dent Buchanan,  Minister  to  Mexico.  It  cost  $57  to 
send  his  credentials  from  Washington  by  mail  and 
pony  express. 

Many  Divorces  Then,  as  Now. 

During  1860  there  were  eighty-five  actions  for 
divorce  taken  in  San  Francisco,  sixty-four  of  which 
were  commenced  by  the  wives.  There  were  fifty- 
seven  divorces  granted  during  the  year. 

In  the  eleven  months  ending  November  30th  there 
arriveVl  bv  sea  in  San  Francisco  28,715  passengers, 
and  departed  13,398,  being  a  gain  of  15,317  for  the 
State. 

A  fire  in  Marysville  on  December  23rd  destroyed 
the  stables  of  James  Curry,  twenty-two  horses  being 
cremated  and  a  loss  of  $15,000  ensuing. 

The  Pioneer  flour  mill  at  Sacramento  burned 
December  22nd  with  a  heavy  loss.  This  mill  had  the 
honor  of  a  pioneer,  in  having  ground  wheat  that 
cost  twelve  cents  a  pound  and  produced  flour  that 
sold  for  $40  a  barrel. 

A  foot  race  that  was  to  have  taken  place  on 
December  25th  at  San  Jose,  for  $5000  a  side,  was 
run  on  December  27th.  It  was  at  a  distance  of 
100  yards,  between  a  Mexica-n  named  Seloya  and 
an  American  named  Forbes.  The  latter  was  beaten 
about  ten  feet  and  the  Mexican  population,  who 
backed  Seloya  as  loyally  as  they  did  on  September 
18th,  reaped  another  harvest,  but  not  as  great  as 
the  previous  one.  Seloya  appears  to  have  been  the 
t  foot  racer  of  the  time,  and  the  amount  of 
the  stakes  were  always  in  the  thousands  when  he 
contested. 


THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


De 


California's  Industrial  Success 

In  the  Keeping  of  Californians 

(BY  F.  C.  PARKER,  PRESIDENT  HOME   INDUSTRY  LEAGUE   OF  CALIFORNIA.)

31 

S  TRULY  AS  THE  COMPLETE  re- 
building of  San  Francisco  depends 
upon  its  commercial  activity  and 
"get  together"  spirit,  so  truly  does 
the  State's  development  for  a  more 
substantial  economic  basis  depend 
upon  a  rehabilitation  of  its  one-time 
numerous  manufacturing  and  pro- 
ducing industries  by  a  stimulated 
patronage  of  them.  By  this  means, 
and  only  by  this  means,  can  we 
hope  to  see  in  the  near  future  the 
possible  development  of  California  manufacturing 
and  producing  industries.  And  only  in  illustrating 
what  Californians  can  do  to  help  develop  their  own 
State  by  a  greater  recognition  of  "made  in  Cali- 
fornia ' '  goods,  can  we  expect  to  improve  the 
general  business  conditions;  to  attract  a  greater 
population  to  till  the  soil,  as  well  as  those  who  in- 
vest for  manufacturing  that  means  so  mueh  to  the 
greater  growth  and  purchasing  power  of  our  cqm- 
munity.  Every  native  son  and  daughter,  and 
others  whose  interests  are  in  common,  must  awake 
to  the  realization  of  what  California  has  lost  in 
her  manufacturing  industries — and  is  continuing  to 
lose  more  and  more  in  her  great  producing  in- 
dustries— largely  because  of  that  inattention  to 
and  lack  of  purchasing  of,  the  goods  that  are  pro- 
duced here.  This  is  manifested  in  the  great  and 
sad  loss  of  our  manufacturing  in  the  vicinity  of 
San  Francisco  Bay  since  1904.  Such  being  the  re- 
sult, then  we  are  not  advancing;  we  are  retrogress- 
ing. Every  day  we  hear  how  the  East  is  supplying 
construction  materials  for  our  great  public  build- 
ings. 

The  situation  is  appalling — these  facts  have  been 
repeated  before  in  these  pages,  but  cannot  be  re-, 
peated  too  often  to  bring  us  to  the  truth  of  con- 
ditions as  they  exist,  and  the  quickest  way  of 
remedying  them.  This  the  Home  industry  League 
is  endeavoring  to  do,  in  the  education  of  the  peo- 
ple to  buy  California  products. 

California 's  market  has  narrowed  considerably 
by  loss  of  manufacturing  around  San  Francisco 
Bay — business  that  will  take  years  to  recover — and 
as  a  result  the  depressing  effect  is  hurting  the  entire 
State.  Our  volume  of  business  has  decreased  in- 
stead of  increased — not  only  the  manufacturers 
and  producers  are  suffering,  but  the  retailers,  the 
wholesalers  and  the  Eastern  manufacturers'  agents 
us  well.  As  a  consequence  of  their  poor  business 
conditions,  the  consumer  is  getting  the  worst  of 
it  and  is  charged  exorbitant  prices  to  meet  this 
forced  uneconomic  principle  of  the  high  cost  of 
living.  All  this  for  the  reason  that  the  retailer, 
above  everything  else,  does  not  carry  California- 
made  goods;  the  wholesaler  does  not,  and  the  peo- 
ple of  our  State  have  not  been  taught,  nor  do  they 
see.  the  economic  neeessitv  o-  asking  for  them. 

The  Eastern  manufacturer's  agent  is  taking  the 
most  of  the  business,  and  toe  money  as  well,  to 
some  other  state  to  develop;  while  even  he,  if  there 
were  a  greater  demand  for  California  goods  and 
an  increase  in  the  population  employed  to  make 
the  demand,  would  get  more  business  if  we  in- 
creased that  same  purchasing  population.  If  our 
own  people,  the  consuming  element,  who  are  using 
the  food  products,  thegarments,  the  household  fur- 
nishings and  the  mechanical  appliances  that  must 
be  used  in  all  construction  and  building,  would 
demand  more  California-made  goods,  they  would 
not  only  help  the  manufacturer  and  producer,  but 
by  this  same  demand  force  the  retailer  and  the 
jobber  to  come  down  in  their  prices,  which  they 
have  inflated  to  meet  the  little  business  they  get 
by  the  scant  number  employed.  This  number  repre- 
sents the  purchasing  power  in  the  community.  The 
tradesman  and  retailer  must  look  to  the  immediate 
vicinity  of  his  State,  rather  than  to  other  coun-' 
tries,  for  his  business,  which  necessarily  should 
force  him  to  see  the  wisdom  of  developing  the  con- 
ditions of  business  surrounding  him — these  same 
conditions  being  those  of  manufactures  that  lie  is 
not  patronizing,  but  instead,  giving  preference- to 
Eastern  houses  whose  agents  are  sending  money 
away,  never  to  return.  The  interior  country  and 
tourist  does  help  him  to  a  great  extent,  but  his 
steady  income  is  from  tne  increased  number  of 
those  employed  in  his  neighborhood  by  manufac- 
turing establishments. 

The  wholesaler,  who  has  a  larger  field  in  which 
to  sell  his  wares,  in  many  respects  is  similar  to  the 
manufacturer,  in  regard  to  lack  of  patronage.  In 
most  cases  the  retailer  goes  right  over  his  head 
and  buys  in  the  East,  whereas  if  we  could,  which 


we  are  endeavoring  to  do,  get  the  consumer  to 
ask  for  California-made  goods  from  the  retailer, 
and  the  retailer  to  ask  for  California  articles  from 
the  jobber  or  wholesaler,  the  manufacturing  and 
producing  industries  would  be  benefitted  and  the 
money  would  re-circulate  for  the  good  of  all.  In 
fact,  no  business  enterprise  within  the  State  would 
fail  to  receive  benefits. 

As  a  result  of  the  demoralization  caused  by  the 
great  fire,  the  market  area  of  San  Francisco  and 
adjacent  territory  has  contracted  to  an  appreciable 
extent.  This  would  not  affect  us  badly,  if  it  had 
driven  business  to  other  parts  of  the  State,  but  the 
business  has  gone  East  and  elsewhere.  This  natu- 
rally makes  new  conditions  to  meet,  which  are 
brought  about  in  trying  to  regain  what  we  have  lost. 
As  much  as  we  must  regret  the  fact,  the  State  of 
California  is  not  self-supporting,  and  until  it  is  so, 
which  can  only  be  brought  about  successfully  by  a 
patronage  for  home  products — to  help  develop  the 
manufacturers  and  producers  that  are  here  and  make 
a  demand  for  more — we  cannot  hope  to  be  a  healthy 
and  prosperous  community.  Our  own  State  people, 
who  are  depending  on  the  success  of  California  for 
their  own  success,  must  make  or  create  a   demand 


for  the  goods  that  are  made  here  and  thereby 
develop  their  own  means  to  a  successful  end.  By 
the  purchasing  of,  and  the  continual  asking  for, 
California-made  products,  the  State  becomes  self- 
supporting.  Do  this  by  practically  illustrating  that 
our  own  goods  are  the  BEST  MADE — the  best  to 
be  had— BECAUSE  WE  USE  THEM. 

We  must  not  overlook  the  fact  that  our  success, 
and  California's  success,  depends  upon  California's 
support.  This  has  been  quite  evident  in  the  suc- 
cess achieved  by  our  sister  city,  Los  Angeles.  It 
is  the  people  of  that  city  who  have  paved  the 
way  in  California  for  a  campaign  of  co-operative 
interest,  and  it  has  developed  them  from  a  scant 
100,000  ten  years  ago  to  a  thickly  populated,  pro- 
gressive and  home  industrial  city  of  over  300,000 
at  the  present  time.  Nor  in  this  particular  case 
should  we  cease  in  our  efforts  to  become  inde- 
pendent as  a  State  of  thriving  manufacturing  in- 
dustries; for  in  this  independence  we  cease  to  de- 
pend upon  others  who  perhaps  have  been  neces- 
sary at  one  time,  but  who  are  now  depending  upon 
us  at  this  time  for  their  support.  This  burden  of 
support  or  maintenance  of  Eastern  manufacturers' 
agents,  who  are  taking  the  bread  from  our  mouths 
and  sending  it  to  Eastern  states,  is  the  evil  that 
we  must  counteract — not  by  exclusion  of  these 
agencies,  but  by  a  protection  and  preservation  of 
our  home  industries  in  specifying  California 
pro  ducts. 

It  must  be  apparent  to  every  one  of  us  that,  to 
grow  rich,  the  State  must  utilize  her  own  resources, 
and  develop  those  industries  that  are  dependent 
upon  us  for  our  support.  In  the  utilization  of  these 
industries  we  find  work  is  provided  an  increased 
population,  new  trades  crop  up  and  new  profes- 
sions and  building  developed  to  maintain  them; 
economically  bringing  the  good  that  is  so  neces- 
sary for   the    development   of   the   State   that    sup- 


ports it.     In  other  words,   "Cast  your  bread  upon 
the  waters. ' ' 

The  trouble  witli  a  great  many  of  us — and  it  is 
the  greatest  evil  that  home  industry  has  to  contend 
with — is  that  we  assume  that  all  goods  that  bear 
a  foreign  label,  from  the  East  or  elsewhere,  must 
be  better  than  our  own.  This  naturally  results  in 
the  retailer  and  all  dealers,  as  well  as  the  ultimate 
consumer,  seeking  elsewhere  for  those  things  that 
should  be  bought  at  home.  It  is  not  that  they  do 
this,  perhaps,  for  the  reason  that  they  are  prejudiced 
against  California  goods, .  for  the  wholesaler  or 
jobber  who  sells  to  the  retailer  has  the  same  diffi- 
culty at  home  here  in  disposing  of  Eastern-made 
commodities.  It  is  because  the  buyers  in  the  re- 
tail establishments  are  continually  specifying 
Eastern-made  goods  and  buying  the  same  direct  for 
the  personal  benefits  that  come  to  them — which  all 
goes  to  show,  iu  the  continued  education  of  the 
people  to  buy  California-made  products,  that  we 
must  harp  on 'that  one  subject— BUY  AT  HOME. 

These  reiterations  may  be  history  to  many,  but 
it  cannot  be  repeated  too  many  times  to  emphasize 
the  absolute  necessity  of  the  Home  Industry  cam- 
paign. It  is  also  mentioned  to  illustrate  that  the 
campaign  has  survived  many  discouraging  features 
that  have  been  met  with  in  its  success  up  to  date, 
and  has  not  been  as  short-lived  as  many  at  the 
beginning  believed  it  would  be — and  also  to  em- 
phasize what  persistency  will  accomplish  if  applied 
along  logical,  economic  lines.  j.he  Home  Industry 
campaign  has  had  such  oreat  commercial  results, 
moral  as  well  as  financial,  in  improving  many  lines 
of  business,  that  there  is  no  longer  any  doubt  that 
its  logical  following  out  will  ultimately  improve  all 
business  conditions.  Many  in  business,  corpora- 
tions and  property  owners,  that  have  not  perhaps 
felt  the  home  patronage  result  in  its  direct  value, 
do  not  realize  what  a  home  industry  campaign  will 
do  until  \t  is  tried  out.  Those  who  have  kept  in 
touch  with  Home  Industry  progress,  and  the  bene 
lie  a  I  effect  that  it  has  had  on  general  business 
conditions,  and  taken  advantage  of  its  influence 
to  improve  financial  conditions  by  the  circulation 
of  more  money  in  the  home  market,  have  been 
helped    very   materially. 

What  the  future  has  in  prospect  for  Home  Indus- 
try, and  for  those  that  patronize  our  various  in- 
dustries, is  not  as  vague  and  speculative  as  many 
assume  it  to  be.  Those  skeptics  who  cry  "theory," 
are  influenced  by  Eastern  manufacturers'  solicita 
tion.  Visionary  as  the  educational  methods  that 
have  been  used  in  the  campaign  for  Home  Industry 
may  have  appeared  to  the  shopkeeper  and  all  those 
that  have  not  been  directly  affected  by  its  great 
benefits,  the  economic  wisdom  shown  in  facts  and 
figures  comparing  the  past  with  the  present,  in  spite 
of  our  great  decrease  in  manufacturing — which 
would  have  been  even  worse  but  for  the  Home  In- 
dustry movement — has  proven  already  that  the 
movement  is  of  real  substantial  benefit  in  dollars 
and  cents. 

In  the  realization  that  Home  Industry  needs  a 
co-operative  movement,  as  well  as  individual  effort, 
every  one  in  business  or  out  of  it — even  the  school 
children  and  their  mothers — must  not  wait  to  be 
shown  the  benefits  to  be  derived  from  the  pa- 
tronage of  home  products.  As  a  result  of  our  efforts 
up  to  this  time,  the  Eastern  manufacturing  agents 
who  send  so  much  money  that  will  never  return 
out  of  the  State  for  commodities,  are  becoming 
more  active  than  ever  in  anticipation  of  our  efforts 
'in  organizing  throughout  the  State.  In  the  in- 
fluence that  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters 
wield  for  the  betterment  of  our  home  industries, 
will  come  the  co-operation  and  education  that  will 
prove  the  salvation  for  all  tb.ngs  made  in  Cali- 
fornia. 

If  in  the  buying  of  home  products  you  find 
any  that  will  say  that  Home  Industry  theoretically 
is  all  right,  but  in  a  practical  way  it  cannot  be 
carried  out  for  the  very  reason  that  people  will 
buy  articles  that  look  best  to  them,  you  will  find 
it"  is  because  these  articles  have  been  advertised 
perhaps  more  than  our  local  product.  If  your  grocer 
or  the  tradesman  in  any  line  insists  on  selling  you 
Eastern-made  products,  be  sure  that  it  is  because 
he  has  been  educated  and  influenced  to  sell  them 
in  preference  to  California  goods.  It  is  not  because 
California  goods  have  been  tried  and  found  want- 
ing-^ t  is  because  you  have  not  been  given  the 
opportunity  to  try  them.  This  you  can  only  over- 
come by  insisting  on  having  California-made 
products.  This  may  appear  as  if  our  own  manu- 
facturers should  be  criticised  for  having  failed  to 
advertise  their  commodities,  but  in  the  develop- 
ment of  our  younger  industries  on  this  coast,  the 
name  of  a  commodity  is  not  old  enough  perhaps 
to  have  become  the  by-word  that  many  of  the 
Eastern  commodities  have  attained.  There  are 
many  obvious  reasons  why  California  manufacturers 
cannot  advertise  as  extensively  as  Eastern  manu- 
facturers.

CALIFORNIA  IN  WINTER. 

Ih.-  Miu   is   bright,  no  dark'ning  cloud  obscures 

The   deep,  unbroken  blue  of  our   western  skies; 

(her  the  land  a  sweet  sereneness  lies, 
While    thro'    the    rolling   meadows    and   the    moors. 

The    tuneful    stream    melodious    glides    along, 
A  slender  vein  in  our  delightful  land. 

Each  green-ciad   tree  is  vocal   with   the   song 
Of   vari-colored   birds.     The  artist  hand 

Of  nature   well   had   limned   the  Sunset   West, 

And   limned   it.   proclaimed    it   glorious,    best. 

The    hills    around    in    August    splendor    stand. 

Bright  bathed  in  beauty  and  in  magic  light — 

Storm  sentinels   that    shield  us  from  the  blight 
Of  storm-filled  winds  that    rack  the  distant  land 

Beyond  the  snow-lov'd  Rockies.     And  the  air 
Is  redolent  with  perfume  of  the  flowers, 

That  bloom   perennial   in   this  Eden   fair,  With  horses  as  with  married  folks,  it  is  desirable 

Where    oft'    the    heavens    laugh    in    gentle    showers.       that  when  hitched  they  stay  hitched. 


Dear  favored  land!      Thou  art  the  brightest,  best, 
The  garden  spot  of  earth — our  own  loved  West. 

And   it  is   winter,  and  the  yule-tide  too! 

While  in   the   East   the  mad-cap  storm   kings  rage. 
And  with  the  land  in  fourious  strife  engage, 

Here  on  our  golden  soil  the  zephyrs   flow 
A    welcomed   breath   from   ocean   unto  hill. 

Sere    lliekers  down  no  flake  of  biting  snow. 
Nor   from   our  skies  no  peals  of  thunder  thrill, 

\.i  flash  that  oft'  times  hurls  a  mortal  blow. 
Here  all   is  beauty,  joy — a  peace  sublime, 
And  hearts   pulse  gladly  in  our  yule-tide  time.

to  go  with  the  young  men  to  tin* 
mines.  After  the  bitter  had  left 
with  the  young  men,  Captain  Vinson,  who  was  in 
elmrge  of  the  ship,  offered  me  $3  per  day  t"  assist 
him.  and  I  accepted  his  offer.  When  my  time  was 
out.  I  sailed  in  a  seventy-five  ton  schooner  for 
Stockton,  and  we  were  three  days  making  the 
trip.  Each  night  we  stopped  on  the  black,  foamy 
banks  of  the  San  Joaquin,  and  on  every  occasion, 
as  the  shades  of  evening  approached,  the  cannibal 
mosquitoes  appeared  also  and  tattooed  us  free  «.t' 
charge.  No  sooner  had  we  anchored  in  the  Stock- 
ton Slough,  than  the  report  of  a  pistol  was  heard, 
and  like  magic  a  largo  crowd  gathered.  1'pon  in- 
quiry, it  appeared  that  a  man  just  from  the  mines 
had  a  dispute  with  a  monte  dealer,  who  shot 
and    killed    his   patron. 

The  day  after  our  arrival  in  Stockton  I  made 
arrangement  with  a  couple  of  teamsters  to  take 
my  blankets  and  sack  of  provisions  to  Hawkin 
Bar,  a  mining  camp  on  the  Tuolumne  River.  About 
sundown  each  day  the  teamsters  stopped  over 
night  to  feed  and  give  the  cattle  rest,  usually  near 
a  spring,  with  a  patch  of  wild  oats  or  grass  for  the 
benefit  of  the  cattle.  Here  we  fried  our  ham, 
bacon  and  slapjaeks,  and  made  coffee.  When  all  was 
ready  we  sat  on  the  ground  in  a  circle,  and  while 
eating,  each  gave  his  experience  on  the  way  to 
California  and  since  his  arrival;  after  which  some 
smoked  their  pipes  or  cigars,  and  others  cigar- 
ettes. Smoking  being  over,  we  spread  our  blan- 
kets under  the  covered  wagon  and  tried  to  sleep, 
but  the  thieving  coyotes,  or  prairie  wolves,  were  so 
delighted  with  our  company  that  they  stood  on 
a  little  eminence  near  by  and  serenaded  us  till 
broad  daylight.  During  the  night  they  gathered 
the  crumbs  around  the  wagon,  and  on  arising  we 
found  they  had  kindly  left  our  frying  pans  and 
dishes   scrupulously   clean. 

"Self  Rising"  Patch. 

The  first  camp  we  made  at  Hawkin  Bar  was 
about  9  o  'clock  on  a  beautiful  Sunday  morning. 
All  the  men  in  camp  were  busy — some  barbering. 
others  laundering,  and  still  others  tailoring.  One 
man  put  a  patch  on  the  seat  of  his  pantaloons, 
which  he  cut  out  of  a  flour  sack.  It  read,  in  large 
blue  letters:  "Self  Rising!"  and  he  amused  the 
miners  by  marching  up  and  down  between  the 
tents.  My  object  in  visiting  this  camp  was  to 
meet  some  of  the  Floyd  boys;  but  upon  inquiry, 
it  appeared  they  had  gone  to  Jacksonville,  a  min- 
ing camp  eight  miles  above,  on  the  same  river. 
Being  anxious  to  see  some  familiar  faces,  I  took 
my  blankets  that  afternoon,  marched  up  the 
stream,  and  made  the  camp  about  sundown.  They 
were  all  with  the  captain,  seated  on  the  ground 
under  a  large  live  oak  tree,  eating  their  supper. 
On  my  way  to  Hawkin  Bar  I  met  half  a  dozen 
Floyd  boys  who  had  been  in  the  mines  about  ten 
days,  but  they  were  on  their  way  home.  They  said 
to  me,  "Doc,  go  back.  The  mines  are  all  worked 
out.     Everybody  is  packing  up  to  go  home." 

The  day  following  my  arrival  in  Jacksonville,  a 
gentleman  by  the  name  of  H.  B.  Hosmer,  from  Bal- 
timore, asked  me  if  I  would  like  to  work  with  him, 
and  "learn  to  mine  and  rock  the  cradle."  I  an- 
swered him  in  the  affirmative,  and  remained  with 
him  three  weeks  at  $9  per  day.  At  the  expiration 
of  that  time  the  rainy  season  had  begun  and  drove 
him  out  of  the  river.  It  commenced  raining  at 
night  and  the  river  rose  very  fast,  so  that  in  the 
morning  we  found  all  the  wing  dams  washed 
away,  and  the  river  was  filled  with  floating  cradles, 
buckets,  long-toms,  sluices  and  every  description 
of  mining  utensils. 

Jacksonville  is  in  Tuolumne  County,  at  the  mouth 
of  Wood's  Creek,  which  empties  into  the  Tuo 
lumne  River.  The  banks  of  the  river  and  all  the 
creeks,  gulches  and  ravines  were  richly  fringed 
with    fine   gold,,  and   nuggets   of   various   sizes   and

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


December 


I      Editorial 


Conducted  by  Clarence  M.  Hunt,  Managing  Editor 


Patronize  home  industry,  sure!  But  how  in  the 
name  of  common  sense  can  we  buy  goods  manu- 
factured in  California  if  tlie  manufacturers  thereof 
don't  let  us  know  that  they  are  in  business? 

There  are  many  California  products  that  com- 
paratively few  people  never  knew  were  manufac- 
tured in  ti-is  State.  Can  the  buying  public  be 
censured  for  this  lack  of  knowledge?  JNot  a  bit. 
All  the  fault  rests  with  the  producers,  who  lack 
that  enterprise  which  keeps  their  wares  ever  in 
the   public's   mind. 

Did  it  ever  occur  to  you,  Mr.  California  Manu- 
facturer, why  eastern  an^_  ioreign  goods  are  pur- 
chased by  Calif ornians,  in  preference  to  yours? 
It  is  not  because  these  imported  articles  are 
superior;  it  is  not  because  they  can  be  sold  cheaper; 
it  is  not  because  your  <^oods  are  discriminated 
against.  It  IS  because  you  have  not  taken  the 
people  into  your  confidence,  through  legitimate  ad- 
vertising, and  made  known  the  fact  tnat  you  are 
producing  sueh-and-such  a  brand  of  goods. 

There  are  many  eastern  brands  of  staple  goods 
that  are  in  demand  for  the  sole  reason  that  their 
manufacturers,  through  systematic  advertising, 
have  thoroughly  implanted  those  brands  in  the 
housewives'  minds.  .California  manufacturers  spend 
comparatively  little  in  advertising,  and  seem  to 
feel  that  the  buying  public  will  seek  them  out 
when,  as  a  matter  of  fact,  they  should  seek  the 
buyers,  through  publicity,  and  encourage  the  use 
of  their  products. 

We  honestly  believe  that  a  great  proportion  of 
our  people  would  glaaly  give  preference  to  home 
products,  but  they  have  no  way  of  knowing  what 
is  manufactured  here.  At  the  same  time  California 
manufacturers  have  encouraged  the  non-use  of  their 
own  goods  by  giving  the  field  of  publicity  entirely, 
or  nearly  so,  to  their  eastern  and  foreign  com- 
petitors. 

Publicity  is  a  great  factor  in  the  business  world 
of  to-day,  and  until  California  manufacturers  can 
be  educated  up  to  its  use  they  cannot  hope  to  com- 
pete at  home,  much  less  abroad,  with  those  who 
know  its  value,  and  profit  by  the  knowledge.  It  is 
a  matter  of  fact  that  every  well-advertised  Cali- 
fornia product  is  largely  in  demand,  both  at  home 
and  abroad.  The  secret  of  success  of  our  home 
industries  lies  in  giving  publicity  to  what  we  pro- 
duce. Let  the  producers  do  their  part  through 
publicity,  and  the  buying  public  will  do  theirs  in 
purchasing. 

*         *         » 

The  people  of  California  are  to  be  congratulated 
upon  the  handsome  vote  given  the  constitutional 
amendments  to  promote  the  proposed  Panama- 
Pacific  Exposition  in  San  Francisco  in  1915.  When 
the  Congress  is  advised  that  nearly  every  voter 
in  California  endorsed,  by  his  favorable  vote  on 
these  amendments,  the  movement  to  hold  the  fair 
in  the  city  by  the  Golden  Gate,  there  should  be  no 
hesitancy  on  the  part  of  the  members  of  that  Con- 
gress in  awarding  the  prize   to   San   Francisco. 

The  success  of  these  amendments  is  a  long  step 
in  the  right  direction,  but  the  path  to  final  victory 
has  not  yet  been  completely  trodden  and  the  ob- 
stacles removed.  This  latest  victory  should  but 
spur  us  on  to  more  united  and  enthusiastic  action. 

Every  citizen  of  California  should,  before  the 
assembling  of  Congress,  make  it  his  business  to 
get  in  touch  with  as  many  members  of  Congress  as 
possible,  and  endeavor  to  enlist  their  support  in 
behalf  of  San  Francisco  for  the  Exposition  City.  If 
everybody  will  assist,  every  Congressman  can  be 
reached. 

The  proposed  Exposition  will  be  a  great  factor 
in  the  upbuilding  of  the  entire  State.  It  will  bring 
to  California  thousands  of  people  who  will  not  re- 
turn to  their  distant  homes  until  they  have  seen 
all  the  glories  and  natural  advantages  of  this  most- 
talked-of  State  in  the  American  Nation.  What 
will  result?  They  will  appreciate  and  take  ad- 
vantage of  the  wonderful  opportunities  here  pre- 
sented, become  one  of  us,  and  aid  in  the  develop- 
ment  of   our   unlimited    resources. 

Let  everybody  boost  for  the  Panama-Pacific 
Exposition  in  San  Francisco,  for  everybody  will  be 
benefitted  thereby.  This  is  not  a  San  Francisco 
enterprise — it  is  Californian,  and  therefore  should 
merit  the  support  of  every  good  citizen  of  the 
State.     San  Francisco  is  simply  doing  her  part  of 


Christmas  Day — Its  Real  Significance 

Overlooked  in  Present-day  Observance 


There  is  no  holiday  so  universally  observed  as 
that  of  Christmas.  And,  at  the  same  time,  there 
is  undoubtedly  no  festive  occasion  in  which  the  true 
significance  of  the  day  is  so  generally  overlooked 
and  wholly  ignored.  Christmas  is,  as  we  all  know, 
the  festival  of  Christ's  nativity,  yet  in  its  ob- 
servance we  too  often  give  little  heed  to  the  One 
in  whose  honor  the  day  is  celebrated,  and  our 
thoughts  are  directed  largely  to  our  own  selfish 
interests  and  pleasures. 

In  these  days  of  splendor-worship,  Christmas  has 
become  the  occasion  for  men  to  vie  with  their 
brothers  in  the  giving  of  costly  and  extravagant 
presents  to  those  who  are  near  and  dear  to  them, 
and  in  a  majority  of  cases  the  recipient  is  in  no 
need  of  the  gifts  bestowed,  and  they  therefore  serve 
no  good  purpose,  other  than  to  temporarily  please 
and  satisiy  a  taste  for  finery. 

Ordinarily,  the  birthday  anniversary  of  a  mem- 
ber of  a  family  is  the  occasion  for  presenting  him 
with  little  remembrances  of  love  and  affection.  How 
many  of  us  on  Christmas,  the  anniversary  of  the 
birth  of  Christ,  the  Son  of  the  Head  and  Fount  of 
the  universal  family,  make  gifts  to  Him — or  to  our 
poor,  unfortunate  brothers,  in  appreciation  of  His 
love  and  beneficence?  If  we  would  consistently 
observe  Christmas,  our  time  and  our  money  would 
be  entirely  devoted — on  this  one  day  in  the  year, 
at  least — to  hunting  out  those  children  of  God 
who  are  in  want  and,  in  the  Father's  name,  help 
to  alleviate  their  sufferings.  For  Christ  himself,  in 
honor  of  whose  birth  Christmas  is  observed,  has 
said:  "Inasmuch  as  ye  have  done  it  unto  one  of 
the  least  of  these  my  brethren,  ye  have  done  it 
unto  me." 

The  ways  of  the  Lord  are  inexplicable,  and  it 
is  not  for  us  to  believe  other  than  whatever  is, 
is  for  the  best.  We,  in  our  blindness,  cannot  see 
the  wisdom  in  many  things,  and  what  often  seems  to 
us  a  curse  is,  in  reality,  a  blessing  in  disguise.  This 
we  do  know,  that  the  poor  and  needy  are  always 
with  us.  Why  God,  in  the  fullness  of  His  mercy, 
permits  any  of  His  children  to  suffer  in  the  midst 
of  plenty,  is  beyond  human  comprehension,  but  we 
must  believe  that  He  doeth  all  things  for  the  best. 
It  may  be  that,  in  withholding  His  blessings  from

of  His  goodness. 

Christmas  cannot,  in  any  true  sense  of  its  mean- 
ing, be  construed  as  an  occasion  for  giving  to  those 
who  already  have  plenty.  Its  real  observance  must 
of  necessity  come  from  the  giving,  by  those  who 
have  plenty,  to  those  who  have  little,  or  nothing. 
But,  instead  of  being  a  day  upon  which  the  poor 
and  unfortunate  are  made  happy — and  made  to  know 
that  there  is  a  just  God  above — Christmas  has  be- 
come a  day  upon  which  the  poor  are  made  more 
fully  to  realize  their  misfortune.     The  fortunate  be- 


lieve in  God's  justness  because  they  have  plenty. 
Should  we  not,  therefore,  on  Christmas,  share  our 
plenty  with  the  unfortunate,  in  order  that  there 
may  be  established  in  the  hearts  of  the  poor  a 
realization  that  there  is  a  just  God  above  Who 
watches  over  all? 

We  all  enjoy  receiving  gifts,  and  no  doubt  we  all 
"enjoy  giving.  But  iu  our  giving  to  the  poor  and 
unfortunate,  we  generally  present  them  with  that 
which  remains  after  our  own  pleasures  have  been 
satisfied.  God  has  said-  that  it  is  better  to  give  than 
to  receive.  And  so  it  is,  for  what  we,  in  our  plenty, 
receive,  gives  us  but  temporary  single  pleasure; 
what  we  give  to  the  needy  in  their  distress  pro- 
duces a  lasting  two-fold  pleasure — it  pleases  the 
giver  to  know  that  he  has  done  something  for  the 
unfortunate,  and  pleases  the  recipient  to  have  his 
needs  supplied. 

Christmas  belongs  to  Christ,  and  is  observed  be- 
cause of  His  birth.  It  is  not  a  day  of  human 
creation,  such  as  our  national  holiday  and  other 
festive  occasions.  But  we,  in  this  day,  have  placed 
it  in  the  category  of  hunuu  events,  not  by  word, 
perhaps,  but  by  the  manner  in  which  we  observe 
it.  Had  not  Christ  been  born  on  December  25th, 
that  day  would  have  no  special  significance,  for 
it  is  the  event — the  birth  of  Christ — not  the  day 
itself,  that  has  made  that  day  a  world-observed 
holiday.  Had  Christ  beeu  born  on  any  other  day 
of  the  year,  that  day  naturally  would  be  Christmas, 
and  would  be  observed  in  the  same  manner  in  which 
we  now  observe  December  25th.  Therefore,  Christ- 
mas is  a  part  of  God  himself,  and  should  be  de- 
voted to  the  doing  of  those  things  which  pertain  to 
Him. 

We  have  364  days  in  each  year  that,  through 
God's  grace,  belong  to  us,  and  are  at  our  own 
disposal  to  do  with  as  it  is  given  us  to  see  the 
necessity  of  our  doing.  One  day,  however,  has  been 
set  aside  as  belonging  exclusively  to  God,  and  ou 
it  we  should  pay  homage  to  the  Creator  of  the 
Universe  and  do  those  things  alone  which  shall 
find  favor  in  His  sight. 

If  th'e  millions  of  dollars  annually  expended  at 
Christmas  time  for  the  temporary  pleasure  of  the 
fortunate  were  collected  in  one  immense  pile,  and 
disbursed  for  the  benefit  of  the  unfortunate,  we 
would  then  be  doing  something  in  true  observance 
of  the  birthday  of  the  Son  of  God — the  Father 
of  the  fortunate  and  unfortunante  alike.  But 
until  we  can  get  over  the  notion  that  Christmas 
is  the  occasion  for  our  sacrificing  all  other  interests, 
in  order  to  make  glad  the  hearts  of  our  fortunate 
brothers,  we  are  not  really  observing  Christ's 
birthday,  but  in  reality  putting  the  pleasure  and 
gratification  of  our  worldly  friends  above  the  pleas- 
ure and  gratification  of  Him  whose  birthday  we 
pretend   to    honor.

"Christmas  comes  but  one  a  year,"  is  a  favorite 
saying.  And  a  great  many,  when  balancing  their 
accounts  at  the  close  of  the  year,  are  inclined  to 
the  belief  that,  if  we  are  to  continue  our  present 
extravagant  gift-buying  observance  of  the  day,  it 
should  come  not  oftener  than  once  in  ten  years. 

On  page  nine  of  the  November  issue  of  this  mag- 
azine appeared  a  political  card  of  Theodore  A.  Bell, 
above  which,  through  an  error  in  making  up  the 
pages,  the  line  "advertisement ' '  was  omitted. 
While  the  make-up  of  the  publication  indicated 
clearly  that  the  card  was  a  paid  advertisement, 
there  were  some  who  believed  the  magazine  was 
advocating  Mr.  Bell's  candidacy.  This  is  a  de- 
cidedly wrong  impression. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  took  up  the  cause  of  neither 
gubernatorial  candidate,  but  did  sell  advertising 
space  in  its  columns  to  all  candidates.  Mr.  Bell 
bought  the  space  given  him,  and  it  was  •  only 
through  an  unintentional  oversight  that,  above  the 
space,  the  words  "Paid  Advertisement"  were 
omitted.

A  Song   for  Chistmas  and   For  All   Seasons. 

HEN  I  WENT  TO  LIVE  IN  LON- 
don  I  discovered  that  it  was  against 
tin'  law  there  to  die  without  hav- 
ing a  doctor  called  in.  That  is  to 
say,  if  mi  doctor  was  called  in,  the 
officers  of  the  "law  appeared  and  put 
the  chief  relatives  in  jail.  As  it 
was  fearfully  damp  and  I  began  to 
gel  chills  from  the  miserable 
miasms  of  old  Father  Thames,  I  de- 
cided I  had  better  settle  on  some 
doctor  to  call  in,  and  while  1  was 
about  it  I  might  as  well  choose  what  minister  ! 
should  have,  should  I  not  be  able  to  keep  alive. 
Well,  in  a  strange  place  like  London,  that  is  no 
easy  matter,  it  required  considerable  hunting  and 
questioning  to  find  just  such  a  doctor.  Then  1  re- 
member wo  started  on  :i  certain  Sunday  to  find 
just   sin- 1 1   a    minister  and   not    until    7    p.m.   diil    we 

gel  into  the  right  place,  and  pew,  as  it  were.  As 
we  wen'  supperless  ami  worn  out,  we  went  home 
and  returned  the  following  Sunday.  The  shep- 
herd of  this  Hock  was  all  that  heart  could  wish — a 
man  of  culture,  free  from  affectation  and  most 
hospitable.  I  felt  1  would  be  willing  to  he  burred 
with  SUCh  a  true-hearted  man  as  that  to  read  the 
service  over  me. 

Well.    I    got    rested    finally,   ami   the    Rev.    Mr.  Tar- 
rant   became  our    friend    in    many    ways    most    deeded 

in  order  to  yet  along  t he  rough  road  of  li U-  in- 
M'.i'l  of  death.  Through  his  good  offices,  we  each 
had  membership  in  the  British  Museum,  also  in 
the  nearest  free  libraries,  and  often  he  loaned  me 
his  own  books  and  wrote  out  lists  for  me  to  study 
on  certain  subjects.  Nobody  was  ever  kinder  and 
more  friendly  than  was  he,  to  us,  who  came  to  him 
utter  strangers  from  a  strange  laud  to  dwell  there 
for  four  years.  1  cannot  tell  the  half  of  his 
nohle  efforts  to  make  it  easy  for  us  to  get  along. 
As  1  think  it  over  now,  I  realize  that  he  was  the 
t  ruest  friend  we  made  during  our  sojourn  there, 
though  we  met  many,  and  considered  them  to  be 
very  important.  After  all  these  years  he  stops  in 
his  busy  life  and  writes  me  a  kindly  letter.  1  want 
to  3hare  with  my  Deejers  a  poem  of  his  that  I  keep 
on  my  wall  to  re-read  day  by  day,  it  is  so  beautiful 
and  so  deep.  I  liope  you  will  copy  and  place  it  on 
your  wall  also,  for  it  contains  thoughts  that  will 
illumine  your  mind  like  the  lights  burning  upon 
a   sacred   altar — the  altar   of    home.      He   entitles    it:

Come,    sing    we    now   of  Love  again. 

And    Love    again    shall    sing

That   wakes  the  pentecostal  tongue

That    ailds    the    sacramental    grace 

To  things  already  fair, 
And    hallowing    every    mother's    face 

Doth    write   "Madonna"   there. 

'Tis  Love  that  makes  the  timid  bold, 
The   comrade   blithe   and    gay;

The  Deejer's  Cough-Syrup. 

Now,  you  may  have  thought  J  was  just  making 
fun  when  1  talked  a  I  mil  t  my  Deejers!  Thai,  iii 
the  words  of  a  crude  and  incredulous  person,  "there 
never  was   no   such   thing!"      But  you  should   have 

seen  me  a  week  ago  last  Saturday,  all  choked  Up 
and  ready  to  go  into  pneumonia,  which  is  very 
fashionable  just  now.  Well,  it  was  Saturday  mor- 
ning and  the  Deejers  came  in  from  Pine  street — 
boy  Deejers.  I  told  them  to  promise  not  to  let  me 
be"  carried  off  to  a  hospital,  but  to  stand  by  ami 
keep  me  supplied  with  bread  and  butter — I  would 
drop  notes  to  them  for  what  I  wanted — and  if  I 
had  to  die,  to  let  me  do  so  like  a  true  Ark-adian. 
in  my  own  home,  peacefully,  and  in  my  right  mind. 
They  promised,  but  insisted  that  there  was  a  good 
cough-mixture  they  would  brew  for  me  meanwhile, 
by  means  of  which  the  mother  of  one  of  them 
had  produced  great  cures.  Four  boys  ran  in  differ- 
ent directions  for  the  ingredients,  and  put  them  on 
the  tire  and  fought  over  the  mixture  to  see  who 
should  stir  it.  I  watched  them  with  dull  eyes. 
Then  I  remembered  my  Pioneer  Mother  used  to 
have  a  cough-syrup  like  that,  always  on  hand  for 
us  when  any  of  us  started  to  get  choked  up.  Long 
we  had  wanted  to  get  that  lost  recipe.  1  became 
interested.  "It  ought  to  have  elecampane  in  it, 
too,"  i  suggested.  (1  always  thought  elecampane 
such  an  interesting  word  because  it  made  me  think 
of  elephants.)  But  no,  the  Deejers  scornfully  re 
jected  •'elecampane"  from  their  brew.  "  Vou  will 
have  a  quart  of  it,"  they  announced.  "Mercy, 
what  shall  I  do  with  it:'"  1  inquired  helplessly. 
"Drink  it,  of  course,  by  the  cupful,''  they  insisted. 
Then  one  of  them  showed  me  how  it  was-  to  be 
done. 

They  were  just  little  boys,  full  of  the  mission- 
ary spirit.  When  it  was  done  they  made  me  take 
it.  I  always  did  hate  licorice.  Especially  when  it 
was  combined  with  sweetish,  sourish  stuff.  Yet 
it  reminded  me  of  my  Pioneer  Mother 's  remedy. 
1  gave  in  and  took  it  faithfully.  By  evening  we 
had  a  Hallowe'en  party  with  twenty-five  children 
here,  and  I  was  strong  enough,  by  then,  to  twice 
throw  those  boys  out  into  the  street,  to  tight  out 
their  battles  with  Bush  street,  and  fetch  them  in 
again  to  play  their  parts  in  the  favorite  panto- 
mine,  "The  Lost  Campoodie."  1  consumed  the 
entire  quart  of  stuff',  and  1  think  I  could  throw 
out  Sandow  by  now.  The  only  thing  is,  that  I  am 
afraid  1  have  become  addicted  to  the  awful  brew 
of  licorice  stuff.  When  it  was  gone,  I  found  my- 
self looking  longingly  at  the  empty  mineral-water 
bottle  for  more.  So  I  went  to  work  and  made  a 
decoction  myself,  adding  ' '  elecampane, ' '  of 
course,  while  1  was  about  it,  and  slippery  elm. 
Already  new  ideas  are  running  riot  in  my  brain, 
as  a  result  of  that  wonderful  combination.  1  have 
decided  to  go  traveling — maybe  abroad — why,  it 
is  astonishing  what  a  good  old  fashioned  herb  will 
do    to    the    constitution. 

1  may  as  well  admit  it-1— those  Pine  street  Dee- 
jers have  saved  my  life.  Of  course,  while  they 
were  about  it,  they  shot  away  my  cherished  arrows, 
broke  a  plate,  ami  banged  up  the  tamborine  and 
drum.  But  wlio  cares?  Is  not  one's  life  worth 
more  than  mere  ephemeral  things.'  For  the  benefit 
of  all,  1  here  append  the  full  recipe,  which  I  hope 
will  save  the  lives  ot  many  hundreds  of  the  (Srizzly 
Bear  readers,  under  similar  circumstances:  To  one 
quart  of  water  add  live  cents  worth  of  brown  rock 
candy,    five    cents    worth    of    licorice    root,    five    cents 

worth  of  elecampane,  live  cents  worth  of  slippery 
elm,  ten  cents  worth  of  honey,  ten  cents  worth  of 
glycerine,  and  boil  slowly.  To  get  all  the  strength 
ot'  t  he  herbs,  let  it  stand  all  night.  Then  si  ra  i  a 
and  add  enough  spirits  to  keep  it  from  molding. 
Bottle,   and    keep    in    the    cupboard    for   use.

occasion. 

Two  sulky  camps  face  each  Othei  the  battle  is 
imminent.  Two  boys  pretend  to  wrestle  in  deadly 
combat  when  I  remark.  "Who  wants  to  be  in  the

when  we  are  sate.  But  it  is  all  wrong,  and  all  ter- 
rible. 

We  are  having  a  delightful  time  with  our  French 
lessons  on  a  Friday  afternoon  after  school.  The

and  boys  (oi  Lyons  street,  whom  she  has  under 
taken  to  civilize.  We  all  grew  strangely  silent. 
Later  (oi  we  discussed  the  matter  under  our 
breaths.  Ibnne  and  Greece  speak  the  final  word 
on  these  matters.  Strange  to  say,  we  united  as  in 
a  chorus,  the  tnree  of  us,  as  we  finally  met  the 
question  fairly  and  squarely,  "If  Bush  and  Pine 
streets    find    it    so    hard    to    get    along    together,    Lord 

help  Lyons  st  reet.

tribes   of    the   cave-dwellers,      bet  urn    to    the    poem

that  Christmas  shall  not  be  in  vain  this  year;  that 
we  shall  try  to  make  the  spirit  of  that  anniversary 
last  over  all  the  seasons.  Let  us  try  to  suppress 
the  snarl  of  the  wolf  in  us,  and  speak  the  kindly 
word     instead.

CHAPTER  VII. 
Randall  Sends  a  Letter. 
HILLIP  RANDALL  IMPROVED 
rapidly,  and  Kathryu  Dene  con- 
tinued to  do  bis  letter  writing.  He 
and  the  amateur  photographer,  who 
was  also  a  Californian,  became 
great  friends.  Late  one  afternoon 
Kathryn  came  out  on  the  wide  side 
porch  -of  the  hotel  with  a  portable 
writing  desk  and  a  fountain  pen 
in  her  hand.  She  was  trying  to 
write  the  written  message  to 
Kenneth  Beresford.  She  took  an 
envelope  and  directed  it  to  him  at  Bakersfield, 
where  he  was  staying,  superintending  his  oil 
interests.  She  started  the  letter  several  times, 
but  her  courage  failed  her. 

In  the  society  columns  of  the  morning  paper  an 
item  had  caught  her  eye.  It  was  to  the  effect  that 
a  Miss  Searls,  a  charming  young  woman  from 
Boston,  was  the  guest  at  the  Beresford  country 
home  at  Burlingame,  and  that  young  Beresford, 
his  mother  and  their  gnest,  were  to  motor  through 
Southern  California.  She  also  read  where  Ralph 
Beresford,  the  brother  of  Kenneth,  had  sailed  for 
Honolulu,  and  Kathryn  naturally  supposed  that 
Kenneth  was  with  his  mother  and  their  young 
lady  guest.  A  jealous  pang  shot  through  the 
girl's  heart. 

What  if  Kenneth  had  forgotten  her!  There  were 
other  girls  fairer  and  sweeter  than  she,  thought 
Kathryn.  A  fear  clutched  at  her  heart  and  her 
courage  failed  her — she  was  afraid  to  write  the 
message.  Presently  she  laid  her  head  on  the  bal- 
cony rail  and  let  the  •unbidden  tears  flow.  .Finally 
she  dried  her  eyes  and  stole  softly  out  toward  the 
sea  captain's  garden,  not  noticing  that  the 
addressed  envelope  had  fallen  out  of  the  writing 
folio. 

Phillip  Randall,  sitting  in  front  of  his  friend's 
cottage,  saw  this  envelope  fall,  and  later  on  picked 
it  up  and  found  that  it  was  addressed  to  Kenneth 
Beresford,  Bakersfield.  He  gave  a  low  whistle  of 
astonishment  and  slipped  the  empty  envelope  into 
his  pocket.  He  now  remembered  that  the  lovely 
color  had  surged  to  the  girPs  cheeks  and  spread 
over  the  white  brow  and  throat  when  he  had  spoken 
warmly  in  Kenneth  Beresford 's  praise. 

The  next  day  the  amateur  photographer 
developed  and  finished  the  pictures  he  had  taken 
at  San  M|ignel  Mission,  and  among  them  was  the 
picture  of  Kathryn  Dene  in  the  "Wishing  Chair." 
"I  secured  that  picture  without  the  young  lady 
knowing  she  had  been  photographed,"  said  he. 
Both  men  gazed  admiringly  at  the  charming  pic- 
ture of  the  girl  in  the  old  carved  chair.  As  a 
member  of  El  Camino  Real  Association,  Phillip 
Randall  had  been  an  earnest  student  of  the  mission 
history,  and  the  legends  of  the  old  missions  were 
familiar  to  him,  especially  those  of  the  "Wishing 
Chairs."  Another  low  whistle  of  astonishment 
issued  from  his  lips.  That  night  he  wrote  to 
Kenneth    Beresford    as    follows: 

"Kind  Friend:  You  will  have  to  make  put  this 
scrawl  the  best  you  can.  I  received  the  telegram 
(which  I  answered)  about  the  deal  going  through. 
Through  your  thoughtfulness  and  careful  invest- 
ment of  my  little  capital  you  have  put  me  on 
my  feet  financially  and  El  Paso  Del  Robles  is  put- 
ting me  on  my  feet  literally.  I  am  to  use  crutches 
tomorrow  and  am  on  the  road  to  a  sure  recovery. 
My  wife  and  babes  come  down  tomorrow  and  I 
rent  a  cottage  for  two  months.  This  is  all  pre- 
amble,  the   important  items  come  now. 

"Among  the  guests  at  this  hotel  is  a  prominent 
past  grand  president  of  the  Native  Daughters,  and 
with  her  is  a  dark-eyed,  golden-haired  young  lady, 
also  a  Native  Daughter.  With  gentle  laughter, 
kinu  words  of  encouragement  and  thoughtful  atten- 
tions, they  have  been  a  wonderful  help  to  me,  the 
young  lady  doing  all  my  writing  when  I  could  not 
move  my  fingers. 

"Now  for  item  one:  The  young  lady  was  writ- 
ing to  you  at  my  dictation  one  morning,  and  when 
I  spoke  in  your  praise,  her  cheeks  flushed  becom- 
ingly. Item  two:  One  evening,  or  rather  late 
afternoon,  the  young  lady  came  out  on  the  hotel 
porch  in  a  secluded  part,  with  writing  folio  and 
pen.  She  apparently  addressed  an  envelope,  then 
sat  motionless  for  a  time,  and  finally  gave  way 
to  quiet  tears.  On  leaving,  unnoticed  by  her,  she 
dropped  the  envelope.  I  picked  it  up  later.  It 
was  addressed  to  you,  at  Bakersfield.  There  was 
no  letter  inside.  I  enclose  the  said  envelope  to 
you.     Item  three:     At  the  San  Miguel  Mission  this

snapshot  picture,  which  I  enclose,  was  secured  by 
the  photographer  without  the  young  lady  being 
aware.  As  a  member  of  El  Camino  Real  Associa- 
tion, you  have  read  the  legend  of  the  famous 
lover's  'Wishing  Chair'  of  San  Miguel,  namely, 
that  he  who  sits  within  it  wishes  for  only  one 
thing,  the  winning  of  the  sweetheart  of  his  choice. 
"Piecing  these  together,  can  you  make  anything 
out  of  them?  Does  it  portend  anything  to  you?  If 
so,  you  had  better  hit  the  pike  for  Paso  Robles. 
Lo  hace  sin  tardanza.  If  not,  please  kindly  return 
the  picture,  as  the  young  lady  is  yet  unaware  of 
its  existence.  My  rheumatic  fingers  have  gone  on 
a  strike.     Your  friend,  Phillip  Randall." 


CHAPTER  VIII. 
The  Lover  Suddenly  Appears. 

The  next  day  but  one  an  automobile  drove  up 
at  the  hotel  at  Paso  Robles,  and  a  tall  youug  man, 
with  honest  gray  eyes,  stepped  out  and  the  porter 
took  his  grip.  "Hallo,  Beresford!  What  good 
luck  brings  you  here.  My,  it  is  good  to  see  you, ' ' 
said  the  manager.  The  two  had  been  college  chums. 
"What  was  the  magnet  that  drew  you  hither?" 

There  was  a  look  of  nervous  expectancy  about 
Beresford  that  did  not  escape  the  keen  eyes  of  his 
friend,  the  manager.  He  sat  dcwn,  chatted,  and 
waited. 

Presently  a  tall,  slender  girl,  dressed  all  in  white, 
appeared  on  the  stairway,  and  as  she  descended 
the  stairs  happened  to  glance  at  the  office  desk,  and 
in  a  voice  which  was  a  mixture  of  surprise,  joy, 
longing,  and  love,  involuntarily  exclaimed:  "Oh, 
Kenneth!  Kenneth!"  With  a  bound  the  tall  young- 
man  was  half-way  up  the  stairway  and  had  grasped 
the  extended  hands  of  the  girl.  All  the  tender 
yearning  of  his  heart  leaped  to  his  eyes,  and  with 
it  such  devotion,  such  reverence,  that  the  girl 's 
eyes  filled  with  happy  tears  as  he  softly  murmured: 
"Kathryu,  my  own  little  girl;  my  darling!  My  de- 
light!" His  voice  was  unsteady,  not  yet  his 
own. 

Her  added  loveliness  startled  him.  He  had  sup 
posed  he  realized  it,  but  her  superb  bright  beauty 
bewildered  him.  Separation  and  longing  added  a 
strange  new  radiancy  to  her  beauty. 

"Ah,  so  that  is  the  magnet  that  drew  him 
hither;  No  wonder  he  cheerfully  swallowed  dust 
and  hit  the  pike  for  Paso  Robles.  Efface  yourself, 
Otto,"  murmured  the  manager  to  himself,  as  he 
discreetly  retired  to  the  inner  office. 

Always  quick  to  recover  herself,  Kathryn  glanced 
around  the  office.  No  one  was  in  sight,  and  only 
the  tick,  tick  of  the  office  clock  broke  the  stillness. 

"Oh,  Kenneth,  I  am  so  glad,"  murmured  the 
girl  nappily.     "Love  is  everything — I  know  now." 

"Kathryn,  please  take  me  some  place  where  1 
can  have  you  to  myself  for  a  while." 

"Come,  I  will  take  you  to  the  captain's  garden, 
where  we  can  have  a  happy  hour  to  ourselves  before 
dinner. " 

So  they  stole  down  the  stairs,  out  onto  the  wide 
porch,  and  into  the  path  that  led  to  the  beautiful 
gardens.  Never  a  word  did  they  utter,  but  the  man 
kept  the  girl 's  slender  white  hand  in  his.  What 
cared  he  who  saw?  He  didn'fdare  let  the  hand 
go. 

'•It  is  good  to  have  you  back  again  beside  me," 
murmured  the  girl,  as  they  entered  the  garden. 

"I  wonder  if  you  realize  what  it  means  to  me?" 
softly  said  the  man. 

They  entered  the  garden  and  walked  between 
rows  of  geraniums,  dahlias,  sweet  scented  phlox  and 
roses,  and  the  girl  murmured:  "Isn't  it  beauti- 
ful?" 

' '  Beautiful,  indeed; ' '  said  the  man,  not  gazing 
at  the  flowers,  but  at  the  exquisite  face  of  the  girl 
at  his  side. 

They  stood  under  a  tree  near  the  fountain,  in  the 
waters  of  which  swam  numerous  gold  fish.  Kenneth 
turned  to  Kathryn  and  said:  "Now  give  me  again 
the  right  to  your  heart  and  lips."  He  drew  her 
suddenly  into  his  arms;  she  lifted  her  face  to  his; 
he  kissed  her,  and  she  gave  her  heart  again  into 
his  keeping.  She  looked  up  into  his  steady  eyes, 
and  a  wave  of  tenderness  overwhelmed  her,  and  her 
arms  tightened  around  his  neck. 

"My  darling,"  he  whispered.  "You  are  my  girl, 
whom  I  have  loved  all  my  life.     My  little  comrade, 


Kathryn.  You  never  have,  never  could,  love  any 
other  man.  Say  it — I  know  it. — but  say  it,  sweet- 
heart. ' ' 

"Only  you,  Kenneth!  Of  course,  I  love  you. 
You  are  mine;  you  always  were  mine.  I -might 
have  known  nobody  else  could  ever  have  had  you, 
nu  matter  if  I  were  estranged  from  you.  And 
nobody  but  you  could  ever  have  had  me.  Oh,  you 
darling,  she  said,  drawing  his  cheek  close  to  hers." 
,  ears  dried,  unshed,  in  her  dark  eyes,  as  she  whis- 
pered: "Kenneth,  dear,  I  am  so  happy.  I  don't 
think  I  know  just  exactly  what  I  am  whispering." 

He  looked  the  picture  of  brave,  young  manhood, 
blessed  with  the  sweetest  knowledge  that  earth  can 
give,  as  he  drew  the  solitaire  diamond  from  his 
pocket  and  placed  it  again  on  the  third  finger  of 
her  left  hand. 

They  walked  to  the  entrance  of  the  tunnel,  con- 
necting the  lower  and  the  upper  gardens.  "The 
captain  although'  a  bachelor  had  excellent  ideas. 
"Isn't  this  an  ideal  garden  for  lovers,"  said  the 
girl.  "Now  I  will  take  you  to  the  upper  garden,  and 
we  can  sit  in  tne  observatory,  built  around  a  huge 
oak." 


CHAPTER  IX. 

The  Mystery  Solved. 

As  they  emerged  from  the  tunnel,  over  the  top 
of  which  was  a  street,  the  scent  of  flowers  again 
gretted  them.  They  walked  to  the  tree  observa- 
tory, climbed  the  stairway,  and  seated  themselves 
on  a  rustic  bench — the  girl  to  gaze  on  the 
panoramic  view  of  El  Paso  Robles,  and  the  man 
to  gaze  on  the  girl. 

A  troubled  look  was  on  Kathryn 's  face  as 
presently  she  said:  "Kenneth,  dear,  I  did  not 
send  any  written  message  to  you.  How  did  you 
have  the  good  sense  to  come  to  me?  Oh,  how  I 
have  longed  and  longed  for  you!" 

For  answer,  the  man  drew  from  his  pocket  the 
picture  of  the  girl  in  the  old  "Wishing  Chair"  of 
San   Miguel. 

Kathryn 's  eyes  were  wide  with  amazement  and 
astonishment.  "Why,  that  is  certainly  I,  myself, 
in  the  'Wishing  Chair*  at  San  Miguel.  But  how  in 
the  name  of  goodness  was  it  taken,  and  when? 
Can  you  enlighten  me,  Kenneth?" 

"The  photographer  took  the  snapshot  without 
your  knowledge,"  said  Kenneth,  and  then  he  told 
her  of  the  letter  that  Phillip  Randall  had  written 
him,   and  what  it  contained. 

"The  dear,  kind,  good  fellow!  How  clever  he 
was  to  piece  things  together.  How  grateful  I  am 
to  him,"  said  the  girl. 

Presently  Kenneth  said:  "Why  didn't  you  write 
the  letter,  when  you  went  so  far  as  to  direct  the 
envelope  to  me?" 

Kathryn  blushed  and  said:  "I  saw  in  the  society 
columns  of  a  newspaper  that  a  Miss  Searles,  a 
beautiful  girl  from  Boston,  was  the  guest  at  the 
Beresford  country  home  at  Burlingame  and  that 
young  Beresford,  his  mother,  and  their  guest  were 
to  motor  through  Southern  California.  I  also  saw 
where  your  brother  Ralph  had  gone  to  Honolulu. 
To  tell  the  honest  truth,  I  was  so  unhappy  and 
jealous  that  I  didn't  dare  write.  I  had  behaved  so 
meanly  toward  you,  the  thought  came  to  me  that 
there  were  other  girls  fairer  than  I,  and  sweeter. 
I  was  lonely  and  miserable,  and  I  cried  my  eyes 
red. ' ' 

"You  knew  that  I  loved  you  dearesst,  with  all 
ray  heart — with  ail  the  strength  of  my  manhood — 
didn't  you?  You  know  how  steadfast  I  am.  You 
knew  that,  for  me,  there  is  only  one  woman  in  the 
world,  and  that  is  you.  You  knew,  you  must  have 
known,  how  I  longed  for  the  message,"  reproached 
Kenneth.  "You  see  brother  Ralph  didn't  go  to 
Honolulu,  as  stated.  So  Ralph  is  escorting  mother 
and  the  young  lady  around." 

* '  Oh,  Kenneth !  If  I  had  only  known.  How 
jealous  I  was  of  her.     How  I  hated  her." 

"Did  you,  sweetheart,"  softly  and  tenderly 
laughed  the  man,  as  he  drew  her  close  and  kissed 
her.  "Well  at  any  rate,  it  is  alright  now.  Phillip 
Randall  acted  the  role  of  cupid  for  us.  By  the  way, 
Kathryn,  how  about  the  plans  of  our  home-to-be?" 

"Oh,  I  have  them  all  ready,  even  to  the  smallest 
details.  It  is  to  be  built  old  mission  style,"  laughed 
Kathryn. 

"All  right,  little  girl — my  little  patriot — I  am  so 
proud  of  you.  Kathryn,  you  won't  keep  me  wait- 
ing long  now,  will  you?"  pleaded  the  man.  "I 
want  my  home  and  my  wife,"  he  said,  putting  his 
arm  gently  around  her. 

Kathryn  flushed  and  replied:  "Indeed  I  won't, 
dear.  How  happy  my  dad-  will  be.  He  is  very 
fond  of  you,  and  thinks  you  one  of  the  finest  young 
men  in  the   State."

Burning  Daylight. 
I, MOST   l\\  \UAU.Y.  WHEN   THE 
name  of  Jack    London   is   menl  Loned 
in   the   presence   of   those   who   have 

read   any   of   his   I ks,    it    is   "The 

( 'nil  of  the  Wild  ' '  thai   bee s  the 

subject  of  discussion,  li  would 
seem  that  it  is  the  booh  by  which 
he  is  best  known,  and  perhaps  to 
those  people  who  love  dogs  it  will 
ever  be  accepted  as  Ins  strongest 
story.  However,  all  people  are  not 
dog  lovers,  and  those  are  the  ones 
give  to  "Burning  Daylight,"  his  latest 
highest  place.  The  title  of  the  book, 
is  also  the  name  of  the  hero,  whose  real  name  was 
Elam  llannsli.  Up  was  given  the  name  "Burning 
Daylight"  because  of  his  habit  of  routing  his 
companions  out  of  their  blankets  with  the  com- 
plaint  that    "daylight    was   burning." 

The  Story  lias  its  sotting  in  Alaska,  in  the  early 
mining  days,  and   most   vivid  is  the  picture  of  the 

I pie  and  conditions  which  the  writer  presents  of 

t  hat  alluring  country — a  wonderful  setting,  truly — 
but  the  career  of  "Burning  Daylight"  is  even 
nn.ro  wonderful,  for  breathlessly  does  the  reader 
follow  his  gambling  game  at  Circle  City,  wherein 
he  loses  all  his  thousands;  go  with  him  over  the 
long  trail  to  carry  the  mail  from  Circle  City  to 
I  'yea,  and  back  to  see  him  win  his  bet;  takes  a 
trip  with  him  into  the  rich  mining  country  to  hear 
him  say  to  his  companion,  "Joe,  I  ain't  never  going 
to  work  hard  again.  Here's  where  I  begin  to  use 
my  brains.  I'm  going  to  farm  gold.  Gold  will 
grow  gold,  if  you  all  have  the  savvee  and  can  get 
hold  of  some  for  seed.  When  I  seen  them  seven 
hundred  dollars  in  the  bottom  of  the  pan  I  knew 
1    had   the  seed  at  last." 

It  is  but  a  short  time  after  this  until  his  claims 
are  all  sold,  the  last  being  bought  by  the  Guggen- 
hammers,  and  when  he  departs  for  San  Francisco, 
it  is  to  take  along  with  him  just  eleven  million 
dollars.  He  remains  but  a  short  time  in  Ban  Fran- 
cisco and  then  goes  to  New  York,  where  he  has 
been    lured    by   the    Guggenhammers   and    others   to 


"I  will  send  him  a  telegram  immediately,"  said 
Kenneth.  "Von  see,  Kathryn,  your  father  and  I 
are  great  chums,  in  spite  of  the  difference  in  age. 
We  both  dearly  love  the  same  little  golden-haired 
girl,  he  as  father  and  I  as  lover.  Every  time  I 
came  up  from  the  oil  fields  to  San  Franeiseo  I 
went  to  see  him  in  his  office,  and  we  enjoyed  these 
chats. ' ' 

They  left  the  gardens,  and  at  the  office  Kenneth 
sent  the  following  message  to  his  future  Native 
.Son  father  in  law:  "Mr,  Charles  Dene,  San  Fran- 
cisco— Dear  Dad:  The  world  is  mine  again,  Ken- 
neth Beresf  ord. ' ' 

In  a  short  time  the  answer  came:  ' '  Kenneth 
Beresf  ord,  Paso  Robles — My  Dear  Boy:  Eureka! 
Put  a  fence  around  it  this  time.     Charles  Dene." 

At  this  juncture,  Phillip  Randall  came  up  on  his 
crutches.  A  look  of  deep  affection  and  friendship 
passed  between  the  men,  and  they  warmly  clasped 
hands,  while  a  world  of  gratitude  shown  in  Ken- 
neth Beresf  ord 's  eyes.  What  a  happy  time  they 
had  that  evening  on  the  hotel  porch.  Miss  Keith, 
Phillip  Randall,  the  photographer,  and  the  man- 
ager, all  shared  the  joy  of  Kathryn  and  Kenneth, 
for  they  all  had  had  a  share  in  rebuilding  the 
romance. 

As  the  moonlight  shone  on  El  Paso  Del  Robles 
later  in  the  evening,  Kathryn  turned  to  Kenneth 
and  said:  "In  these  last  months  during  our 
estrangement  I  have  learned  so  much.  Before 
then,  I  was  a  spoiled,  capricious  girl.  Learning  to 
love  my  native  land  and  my  native  State  has  made 
me  a  broader,  better  woman,  although  I  am  far 
from  perfect  yet.  I  have  learned  the  true  mean- 
ing of  the  beautiful  lines  I  read  in  the  home  of 
Brotherhood  in  San  Diego: 

"  'Love — not  because  one  is  worthy, 

Nor  yet  because  one  loves  you; 
But   because    the    greatest   need   of   the   world, 

Is  a  steadfast  heart,  and  true; 
And    because    where    sin    and    sorrow    are    rife, 

There  the  heart's  best  blood  is  due.'  " 

"Oh,  you  perfect  girl!  You  darling,  and  you 
delight!"  murmured  the  happy  man,  as  he  folded 
her  close  to  his  heart.

outer  into  business  relations  with  them,  Once 
again  wonderful  dramatic  power  is  resorted  to  by 
Mr.  London  when  lie  extricates  "  Burning  Day- 
light"  from  the  clutches  of  these  stocli  brokers 
and  places  him,  with  all  his  money,  in  San  Fran 
cisco  f  o   begin  anew. 

A  man  who  goes  iulo  a  big  city  with  such  an 
amount  of  money  must  of  aecessity  make  many 
investments,  and  the  reader  follows  with  interest 
the  methods  resorted  to  by  one  who  has  amassed 
a  fortune  so  quickly,  it'  not  easily.  For  a  long 
time  has  the  reader  wondered  if  this  was  to  be 
a    story    without    the    love    theme,    t,u     it     is    not     until 

the  book   is   well    along   that    much   of   I  hat    nature 
outers   into    it. 

While  "Burning  Daylight"  leads  the  life  that 
men  with  money  generally  do,  and  while  he  is 
engrossed  in  his  business  deals,  yet  he  often  finds 
himself  thinking  of  his  pretty,  womanly  steno 
grapher,  Dede  Mason.  Her  every  attitude  is  such 
as  to  arouse  in  h i m  a  trai n  of  t  hough t  wh ich 
brings  out  his  better  self,  but  their  lives  have  been 
in  very  different  channels. 

There  is  great  temptation  to  tell  the  pretty  story 
for,  to  the  reviewer,  this  is  the  part  of  the  book 
that  is  entirely  worth  while,  but  it  would  be  an 
injustice  to  the  reader  to  do  so.  He  should  read 
it  for  himself,  thoughtfully,  too.  It  is  always 
interesting  to  follow  the  career  of  a  man  whose 
every  effort  in  life,  in  a  financial  way,  is  crowned 
with  success;  but  to  follow  the  career  of  this  same 
man,  when  the  love  for  a  good  woman  has  gripped 
his  heart  strings,  is  far  more  interesting,  for  love 
is  the  greatest  thing  in  the  world  after  all. 


The  Grand  Canyon  of  Arizona. 

People  who  have  visited  the  Grand  Canyon  will 
welcome  this  latest  book  by  George  Wharton 
James,  as  a  reminder  of  the  days  spent  there,  and 
to  one  who  contemplates  a  trip  to  the  Canyon — 
and  every  one  does — it  is  an  invaluable  book  to 
possess.  Mr.  James  is  a  nature  lover  and  has  spent 
many  years  in  studying  this  piece  of  nature 's 
handiwork.  The  text  is  accompanied  by  a  great 
number  of  photographs  which  the  author  has  him- 
self taken.  There  is  one  large  picture  of  the  Grand 
Canyon  as  viewed  from  El  Tovar,  the  hotel  of  which 
the  author  has  given  so  graphic  a  description,  and 
a  map  showing  the  railroad,  as  well  as  a  long 
stretch  of  the  Colorado   River. 

There  is  much  of  historical  interest  presented, 
and  a  number  of  chapters  deal  most  interestingly 
with  the  life  and  customs  of  the  different  Indian 
tribes  that  inhabit  the  near-by  country,  even  to 
a  number  of  Indian  legends  about  the  Canyon. 
The  Hopi  House,  just  opposite  the  El  Tfovar  en- 
trance, with  its  collection  of  Indian  relics,  must 
be  an  unique  attraction. 

Were  the  reader  contemplating  a  trip  to  the 
Grand  Canyon,  he  would  read  most  carefully,  be- 
fore starting,  this  excellent  guide  book,  and  take 
it  along  for  reference.  One  would  then  return 
from  this  wonderland,  feeling  that  he  had  drunk 
deep  of  its  beauties,  having  seeu  everything  worth 
while. 


Mark   Twain's   Old   Home   To   Be   Sold. 

Literary  treasures  of  the  late  Samuel  L.  Clemens 
(Mark  Twain)  are  to  be  sold  at  auction  in  New 
York,  and  among  them  will  be  many  manuscripts 
and  documents,  the  contents  of  which  have  never 
been  published.  Clemens'  house,  Stormfield,  near 
Redding,  Conn.,  is  to  be  sold,  and  his  daughter, 
Mrs.  Ossip  Gabrilowitch,  has  decided  to  sell  the 
bulk  of  the  library,  retaining  only  such  books  as 
have  intimate  family  associations  and  signed 
volumes  from  living  authors  which  were  presented 
to  her  father.

The    land    God    keeps    from    man    He    sets    on    high 
Above  the  furrowed  valley  and  the  plain, 
And  draws  the  curtain  of  the  summer  rain 

Between   the   crimson   portals   of   the   sky; 

Below  dark  ranks  of  guarding  cedars  lie; 

While  steeps  are  there  no  human  steps  profane, 
And   lakes   that    fell    from    heaven    blue    heavens 
gain, 

As   o'er  far   crags   the   slow-winged   eagles  fly. 

And   here,   where   fragments   of   the   stars   are    cast, 
God  comes  betwen   the  winds   to    walk   aside,

WESTERN   LITERARY   NOTES. 

Bailey  Millard,  one  of  our  California  writers, 
has  just  given  us  "The  Sea  Hawk,*'  a  tale  of 
pearl  fishing  off  the  Lower  California  and  Mexican 
coasts. 

Stewart  Edward  White's  new  book,  "The  Rules 
of  the  Game,"  is  a  man's  story,  dealing  with  a 
man's  problem,  and  written  by  a  man  to  other 
men. 

In  the  leading  cities  of  California,  at  the  present 
time,  Herbert  Bashford's  latest  play.  ''The  Woman 
He  Married,"  is  being  presented  to  large  and  ap- 
preciative audiences.  Virginia  Harned  takes  the 
leading  part. 

The  publication  of  George  Wharton  James'  book 
of  biographical  sketches  of  the  Sons  of  the  Golden 
State,  called  "Heroes  of  California,''  has  been 
delayed  until  the  latter  part  of  November,  when 
the  volume  will  be  issued  with  numerous  pictures 
of  California's  noted  men,  past  and  present. 

"Romantic  California"  is  the  title  of  Ernest 
Peixotto's  late  book.  He  writes  of  "The  Mission 
Bells,"  of  "Two  Old  Spanish  California  Towns," 
of  "El  Camino  Real — the  Spanish  King's  High- 
way," and  of  other  active  survivals  of  the  older 
times.  He  tells,  too,  of  "Italy  in  California"  and 
of  "Little  Journeys  from  San  Francisco"  in 
various  directions,  and  of  "Bret  Harte's  Country." 

Stewart  Edward  White,  the  author,  and  his  wife 
sailed  recently  from  New  York,  to  spend  a  year  in 
Equatorial  Africa.  Mrs.  White  has  accompanied 
her  novelist  husband  into  the  wilds  of  the  Siena 
Mountains  where,  it  is  said,  no  other  white  woman 
has  been,  and  she  said  she  felt  qualified  to  share 
his  hardships  and  dangers  in  the  wilds  of  Africa. 
Mr.  White  said  his  chief  purpose  was  to  study  a 
race  there  which,  he  says,  is  not  of  the  negro 
family,  but  corresponds  to  the  American  Indian. 
Before  starting  on  their  journey  into  the  interior 
of  the  country,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  White  will  be  joined 
by  John  B.  Martin  of  Santa  Barbara  and  R.  B. 
Barnhart   of   Grand   Rapids,   Michigan. 


BIG  CALIFORNIA  MEETINGS. 
Several  organizations  will  hold  t-heir  1911  meet- 
ings in  California  cities  and  will  attract  many 
visitors.  Perhaps  the  largest  will  be  that  of  the 
International  Sunday-school  Association,  which 
meets  in  San  Francisco;  there  will  be  2500  dele- 
gates and  5000  additional  visitors.  Other  meet- 
ings thus  far  scheduled  include:  Western  Fruit 
Jobbers'  Association,  Sacramento,  February  15th- 
lSth;  Western  Retail  Lumbermen's  Association, 
San  Francisco,  February  20th-22nd;  Electric  Sup- 
ply Jobbers'  Association,  Del  Monte,  April  15th; 
the  International  Bible  Students'  Association,  San 
Francisco,  some  time  in  July;  American  Ab  I  J 
Association,  Los  Angeles,  week  June  26th. 


One  of  the  greatest  accomplishments  is  to  be  a 
good  listener.  By  letting  the  other  man  do  all  the 
talking  we  acquire  a  reputation  for  wisdom  far 
above  thai  we  may  gain  in  any  other  way.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR

DEPARTMENT 


AVbdi 


PUBLICATION  THAT  HAS  BEEN 
issued  from  the  California  State 
Mining  Bureau  and  is  of  general 
and  local  interest,  deals  in  detail 
with  the  remarkable  development  of 
the  gold  dredging  industry  in  Cali- 
fornia, and  takes  into  consideration 
the  collateral  topics  of  reclamation 
and  debris.  The  work  was  compiled 
under  the  direction  of  State  Min- 
eralogist Lewis  A.  Aubury,  who,  in 
the  introduction  to  the  bulletin,  has 
written  as  follows:  "The  construction  of  the  first 
practical  gold  dredge  in  California,  in  1898,  marks 
the  beginning  of  a  new  era  in  gold  mining,  which 
branch  of  the  industry  has  probably,  since  its  in- 
ception, assumed  greater  proportions  in  this  State 
than  elsewhere.  With  the  rapid  advance  made  in 
gold  dredging  and  the  gradual  increase  of  gold  out- 
put, have  likewise  come  improvements  and  enlarged 
construction,  which  make  the  California  gold  dredge 
to-day  the  model  after  which  other  countries  pat- 
tern. 

"The  gold  industry  of  this  State  has  received  a 
new  impetus,  and  the  production  advanced  approxi- 
mately three  and  one-half  million  dollars  above  the 
average  output  of  two  years  ago.  Should  other 
forms  of  gold  mining  maintain  their  average  two 
years  from  now,  California  will  probably  again  re- 
cover its  rank  as  the  leading  gold  producing  State 
in  the  Union,  and  will  undoubtedly  maintain  its 
lead  for  many  years  to  come. 

"Sufficient  area  has  already  been  proven  in  the 
gold  dredging  fields  to  warrant  this  conclusion. 
While  it  has  been  contended  in  some  quarters  that 
the  limits  of  the  dredging  areas  have  already  been 
fairly  well  defined,  and  that  the  large  interests  and 
consolidations  have  a  large  portion  of  the  fit-Ids 
controlled,  new  companies  are  continually  being  or- 
ganized for  the  purpose  of  exploiting  tracts  which 
have  been  passed  over,  or  others  which  were  pros- 
pected a  few  years  ago  and  turned  down,  as  being 
too  low  grade  to  operate  profitably.  With  the  ad- 
vent of  the  modern  dredge,  handling  250,000  to 
300,000  cubic  yards  of  gravel  per  month,  at  a  cost 
of  from  2^4  to  3  cents  per  cubic  yard,  conditions 
have  changed  materially.  The  same  evolution  with 
dredge  mining  has  occurred  as  with  gold  quartz 
mining  in  this  State,  and  the  question  has  resolved 
itself  into  one  of  capacity.  The  present  dredge — 
large  as  it  is — has  apparently  not  reached  its  limit." 
Another  important  phase  of  the  industry,  that 
has  large  interests  in  a  horticultural  and  industrial 
way  is  discussed  by  Mr.  Aubury  in  his  introductory 
paragraphs,  which  are  reproduced,  in  part,  as  fol- 
lows: 

"A  new  factor  has  entered  into  dredging  in  Cal- 
ifornia, which  adds  largely  to  the  profit  of  some  of 
the  companies — that  is,  utilizing  the  tailings  from 
the  dredgers.  The  tailings  are  broken  in  immense 
crusiiers  and  the  product  utilized  for  macadam  for 
roads  and  rubble  for  concrete.  What  have  been 
termed  by  some  as  'unsightly  piles  of  gravel'  have 
been  made  to  serve  various  good  purposes  and,  at 
tin-  same  time,  furnished  the  best  class  of  material 
at  a  minimum  cost  to  the  consumer. 

"Several  protests  have  been  made  in  the  past 
against  permitting  dredge  mining.  Those  protests 
have  been  made  without  an  adequate  knowledge 
of  actual  conditions,  it  being  claimed  that  the 
deb  lis  from  the  dredges  was  allowed  to  flow  into 
the  river  channels,  to  their  detriment,  and  the 
wh.de  industry  was  consequently  condemned.  In- 
vestigation shows  that  in  a  few  instances  dredging 
was  being  carried  on  in  the  streams,  and  some 
damage  was  undoubtedly  done.  Outside  of  these 
instances,  however,  the  balance  of  the  dredgers 
have  either  operated  in  landlocked  sections,  away 
from  the  streams,  or  were  depositing  the  tailings 
on  the  banks  of  the  streams,  deepening  the  channels 
and  improving  them. 

In  commenting  upon  the  claim  that  dredge  min- 
ing destroys  the  soil,   the  State   Mineralogist,   says: 


Gold    Dredge   ut   Work   in   Oroville,    California,    District. 


"Some  complaint  has  also  been  made  of  the  total 
destruction  of  the  soil  where  dredgers  operate.  Re- 
garding this  matter,  and  as  will  afterwards  be 
shown  in  this  report,  but  a  comparatively  small 
amount  of  arable  land  is  included  in  that  which 
lias  been,  or  will  be,  dredged.  On  the  other  hand, 
reclamation  projects  are  now  under  way  which  are 
being  carried  on  by  some  of  the  dredging  com- 
panies, which  will  restore  to  cultivation  hundreds 
of  acres  of  swamp  or  overflowed  lands,  and  which, 
were  it  not  for  the  enterprise  of  these  companies, 
would  remain  waste  or  unproductive  for  years  to 
come.  These  reclaimed  lands  will  far  more  than 
offset  those  which  some  claim  will  be  irreparably 
ruined.  The  so-called  destroyed  lands,  which  at  one 
time  were  productive,  had,  to  a  large  extent,  been 
made  worthless  for  agriculture,  viticulture  or  hor- 
ticulture by  their  former  owners,  before  a  dredge- 
bucket  had  turned  them  over.  The  mineral  ingredi- 
ent neeessary  to  plant  life  had  been  exhausted  from 
the  surface  soil,  and  it  was  practically  impossible 
for  the  farmers  to  raise  a  profitable  crop  from  them. 
"To  a  certain  extent,  dredging  these  lands  has 
reclaimed  them.  Trees  or  vines  planted,  since  the 
lands  were  dredged,  give  ample  evidence  of  the  fer- 
tility of  the  ground  and  serve  to  illustrate  the  im- 
proved nature  of  the  same.  In  the  dreflging  sec- 
tions lands  were  purchased  by  dredging  companies 
for  $25  per  acre,  and  the  same  laud,  after  dredging. 


with  its  cobble  piles,  was  sold  for  $100  per  acre  for 
the  gravel  contents.  After  the  gravel  has  been  re- 
moved, or  the  lands  leveled,  they  can  again  be 
utilized,  if  necessary,  for  farming  lands. 

"The  dredging  industry  in  California,  while  add- 
ing annually  millions  of  dollars'  worth  of  gold  to 
our  State's  products,  at  the  same  time  dispenses 
immense  sums  to  the  various  channels  of  trade,  and 
adds  materially  to  our  prosperity.  It  will  continue 
to  do  this  for  at  least  the  next  decade,  and  as 
actual  conditions  affecting  the  industry  become 
more  generally  known,  and  proper  restrictions  are 
maintained,  it  will  be  more  appreciated  and  the  ob- 
jections which  have  been  raised  will  disappear." 

In  the  preparation  of  the  gold  dredging  bulletin, 
a  vast  amount  of  material  lias  been  accumulated, 
dealing  with  gold  dredging  in  California  and  else- 
where. In  the  book  there  are  239  illustrations  and 
a  number  of  maps.  The  illustrations  deal  with  the 
process  of  gold  dredging,  with  geological  forma- 
tions, and  several  pages  are  devoted  to  picturing 
eucalyptus  growing  on  unleveled  dredge  tailings  in 
the  Oroville  district;  eucalyptus  and  fig  trees  grow- 
ing without  irrigation  on  the  unleveled  dredge  tail- 
ings in  the  same  district  in  June,  1909;  orange  trees 
and  grape  vines  growing  on  leveled  dredge  tailings 
in  Oroville  district;  grape  vines  and  almond  trees 
on  leveled  tailings;  eucalyptus  trees,  planted  on  re- 
claimed dredging   ground     in   the     Folsom     district,

According  to  recent   advices  from  Washington,  D. 
c„  all  applications  for  the  patenting  of  lands  in  the 

ml  c i  n    -I   i  alifornia  are  being   held   up  by   the 

Government    until    il    is   definitely    ascertained    that

some  provis For  their  disposal.     The  Interior  De 

partmenl  realizes  thai  the  difficulties  of  ascertain 
mg  whether  lands  contain  oil  are  greater  than  those 
experienced  in  examining  lands  For  minerals,  and 
cases  have  been  known  where  geologists  have  ex 
amined  lands  and  reported  them  as  not  containing

There  is  an  impression  which  appears  to  have  be 
come  general,  thai  the  *  California  oil  land  with- 
drawals by  the  Federal  Government,  and  other 
prior  reservations,  have  aboul  exhausted  the  public

To  Recommend  Liberal  Policy. 
As  a  result  of  the  visit  of  Assistant  Secretary  of 
the  tnterior  Pierce  to  the  California  oil  fields 
recently,  as  announced  in  these  columns  a1  the  time, 
Secretary  Bal linger  will  recommend  to  the  Con- 
gress ;it  its  coming  session  a  liberal  policy  in  open- 
ing the  public  "il  lands  in  California  and  other 
states.  State  co-operation  with  the  Federal  Gov 
ernment  to  prevent  monopoly  in  the  oil  business  and

shapes.  Many  times  L  have  seen  small,  flattened 
nuggets  resembling  leaves  of  t rees—  -that  is,  the 
nuggets  appeared  as  though  :i  leaf  had  been  pressed 
on  tin1  gold  while  it  was  in  a  molten  state.  Once 
l    sa  u    a    nugget,    free    From    qua  rtz,   which    was   as

ville,  by  ;■  colored  man,  who  died  very,  suddenly, 
Many  inquiries  were  made  aboul  the  nugget,  bill 
ii    was    ne\  or    found. 

In   this  mining  camp  there  were  two  brothers  by 

the     inline     of      Hi  Mines;      I      |h  ink      I  hev      were      Proill

During    the    ■ r     and     i im '    1840    the 

Floyd  boys  had  a  rich  mine,  but  ;is  the  streams 
rose  i  he  v  were  obliged  to  Abandon  the  claim  and 
having   sufficient    gold    to   satisfy    their    wants,   sold 

then-  effects,  and   prepared  to  go   I ie,     The  i 

ing  they  started,  thej  packed  the  gold  dual  in 
then  blankets  and  strapped  them  (irmly  around 
their    bodies.      A.1    thai    time    the    Tuolumne    River 

was    very    high.      Il    was    thundering    and    foil p 

o\  er  the  rocks,  boulders  and  i  rees  thai  filled  the 
great  s1  ream. 

For  the  purpose  of  crossing,  :i  colored  man  fas 
tened  a  rope  across  Wood's  Creek  near  where  il 
empties  into  the  river;  in  that,  he  fastened  a  tiar 
row  log  canoe,  for  the  purpose  of  conveying  pas 
sengers.  Just  before  the  Floyd  brothers  stepped 
aboard  the  treacherous  canoe,  we  all  gave  them  a 
hearty    handshake,    wishing    them    a    pleasanl    trip, 

and  hoped  they  would  s< ''meet   the  old  folks  al 

home.*'     When    in   the    Idle   of   the   stream,   the 

canoe  began  to  wabble,  and  one  of  the  I  in  it  hers 
relied  from  the  canoe  into  the  water,  and  the 
rapid  current  carried  him  into  the  wild,  roaring 
Tuolumne.  For  half  a  mile  we  saw  him  rise  and 
fall  as  he  was  dashed  against  the  rocks.  There  we 
were,  obi  iged  to  stand  like  statues,  but  unable  to 
render  him  any  assistance.  His  brother  found  i  he 
body  two  miles  down  the  river  two  days  after. 

In  this  camp,  in  the  spring  of  1851,  John  Adams, 
.-in  exemplary  young  man  from  Providence,  R.  I., 
while  excavating  under  a  mammoth  boulder  for 
gold,  was  c rushed  to  denth  on  the  bank  of  the 
Tin  1 1  ii  nine  River  by  the  sudden  settling  of  the 
rock    before    lie   could   escape.      He   Was  caught    in 

the    middle   of    his   body,    and    his    eyes    were    entirely 

bulged  out  of  their  sockets.  He  lived  only  a  few 
minutes  after  being  extricated.  High  up  on  the 
green,  grassy  banks  of  the  Tuolumne,  near  his 
cabin  home,  we  deposited  his  remains,  and  requium 
will  be  echoed  by  the  liquid  stream  until  the  resur- 
rection morn. 

Fatal  Attempt  to  Lasso  Grizzly. 
Here,  aboul  the  same  time,  two  gentlemen  from 
Kentucky  had  a  donkey  to  do  their  packing.  One 
day  it  strayed  from  camp,  and  about  sundown  one 
of  the  partners  went  in  search  of  the  animal.  Il 
being  late  in  the  evening  and  quite  dark,  Mr. 
Kelltini.  (I  think  was  his  law  partner's  name)  was 
sii  worried  that  he  called  on  a  number  of  miners 
who  were  in  a  boarding  tent  to  assist  him  in  hunl 
ing  his  partner.     They  lighted  their'candles,  placed 

t  hem     in     tin     Inn  terns    and    started     up     the     side    of 

n  mountain.  When  about  a  mile  from  camp,  we 
saw  the  man   leaning  on   his  rifle,     lie  was  terribly 

lacerated — his  scalp  was  hanging  ill  shreds,  his 
a  I  nil  mien  was  torn  open  to  such  an  extent  as  to 
expose  the  intestines,  the  muscles  of  his  amis, 
legs  and  thighs  were  bitten,  and  blood  was  flow- 
ing from  nearly  every  part  of  his  body.  We  placed 
him  on  a  litter,  took  him  to  camp,  placed  him  on

Feminine 


World's    Fads    and    Fancies 


-  El  EMBEE  is  THE  MONTH  WHEN 
the  heart  beats  a  little  faster,  and 
the  purse  strings  open  a  little  wider 
in  remembrance  of  the  old,  old  story 
of  long  ago,  when  the  greatest  of 
all  miracles  was  enacted.  In  the 
city  or  country  where  the  flotsam 
and  jetsam  of  humanity,  as  well  as 
the  better  classes,  seem  to  merge 
into  the  one  thought  of  holiday- 
time  in  the  common  bond  of  fel- 
lowship, it  is  all  the  same,  and  any 
little  act  of  kindness,  though  we  maye  have  to 
deny  ourselves  some  anticipated  pleasure,  may 
afford  more  real  enjoyment  to  the  recipient,  while 
the  memory  of  it  will  stay  with  them  tar  into  the 
coming    year    of    toil    and    hardship. 

With  the  first  suggestion  of  frost  in  the  air. 
giving  a  tang  and  a  snap  that  invigorates  and  sets 
the  pulse  tingling,  we  don  our  so  called  winter 
clothing  with  more  than  mere  pleasure  in  the  cut 
and  fit  of  same.  We  may  make  ourselves  charm- 
ing, with  but  little  outlay  of  funds,  if  need  be. 
A  natty  street  suit,  although  made  by  a  home  dress 
maker,  if  the  cut  and  fit  be  just  right,  will  go 
far  toward  creating  a  mental  poise  that  is  a  great 
aid   to   success. 

Some  Suggestions  as  to  Material  and  \jut. 
Those  Scotch  heather  mixtures  of  somber  tones, 
with  dashes  of  brilliant  coloring  interwoven,  the 
coat  about  thirty  inches  long  with  large  bone 
buttons  for  closing,  are  really  very  new.  The 
skirt  may  be  pleated  or  just  a  plain  fitted  "tube 
skirt,'"  of  not  more  than  two  and  one-half  yards 
around,  although  from  "Gay  Paree "  comes  the 
edict  of,  the  extreme,  "one  and  one-half  yards." 
It  has  already  reached  New  York,  but.  we  sincerely 
hope  it  may  get  buried  in  the  snow-drifts,  or  that 
some  other  equally  dire  calamity  may  befall  it  on 
its  travel   "cross  continent.'" 

The  linings  of  coats  are  mostly  satin  or  pau-de 
san.  Black  and  white  continue  to  be  leaders,  al- 
though black  is  very  often  combined  with  same 
color  to  relieve  the  somber  look.  Light  lavender, 
in  the  broad- wales  for  one-piece  gowns,  and 
braided  with  soutache  of  self-color,  makes  a  chic 
costume;  and  ecru  or  cream  Irish,  val  or  cluuy  lace 
for  t lie  yoke,  stock  and  undersleeves  gives  it  a 
daintier  appearance.  It  is  also  correct  for  the 
material  to  extend  to  the  neck,  and  when  heavily 
braided,  it  becomes  a  pretty  street  suit.  English 
tweed,  English  broad-wales,  Scotch  mixtures,  and 
some  smooth  goods  and  chiffon  broadcloth  and 
others,    are    likewise    correct. 

The  latest  craze  is  for  velveteen  in  the  broad 
wales,  and  in  nearly  all  colors,  but  all  shades  of 
the  "gray  family' '  are  the  leaders.  Short  coats, 
with  large  outside  pockets  and  bone  or  crochetted 
buttons  to  close,  and  made  with  the  narrow  skirt 
may  be  considered  correct  gowns.  Velvet  is  ^lso 
good,  but  it  hasn't  the  popularity  of  velveteen. 
In  regard  to   the 

Latest  in  Millinery, 
We  find  that  the  large  hat  is  rather  more  to  the 
fore  now  than  tin3  turban.  Both  in  the  tall  and 
spring — "between  seasons,"  as  the  milliners  ex- 
press it — turbans  fill  in  the  gap.  and  once  in  power, 
'tis  hard  to  dislodge  them.  For  the  mid-winter 
season,  the  large  hat.  with  draping  of  soft  silk  or 
ribbon,  and  large  willow  plumes  waving  so  jauntily 
and  sending  a  challenge  to  all  masculinity,  is  very 
much  in  vogue.

Then,  for  something  decidedly  new  and  racy,  the 
large  French  velvet  and  silk  flowers,  or  the  hand- 
made black  satin  flowers  and  foliage  covered  with 
cloth  of  gold  nodding  so  saucily  atop  of  a  rakishly 
large  hat.  are  trig  and  natty.  Mandarin  hats, 
trimmed  with  ribbon,  silk  or  feathers,  or  all  com- 
bined, or  in  many  other  ways,  are  very  becoming 
to  some  types  of  faces.  There  is  quite  a  wide 
range  of  models  to  choose  from,  so  one  may  surely 
find  her  own  particular  style.  Speaking  of  variety 
in  different  lines,  it  is  well  to  investigate  any  up-

For  instance,  pillow  tops  may  have  an  old  mis- 
sion as  the  ceutral  design,  with  yellow  poppies  in 
sprays  or  clusters  painted  as  a  border.  Instead 
of  fringed  ends,  tney  are  left  rough.  Take  two 
skins  for  the  top  and  bottom,  slash  around  either 
for  a  square  or  oblong  pillow,  and  fasten  together 
with  strips  of  leather  run  through. 

One  of  the  latest  things  in  leather  work,  is  the 
conventional  uesign,  that  is,  cut-out  work,  in  either 
floral  designs  or  lettering,  with  yellow  or  other 
shades  of  satin  underneath.  If  an  emblem  of  the 
State  be  desired,  ' '  California"  in  scroll  design, 
with  poppy  in  sprays  circling  gracefully  around 
one  side  and  underneath  the  lettering,  and  the 
yellow  satin  gleaming  through  and  laced  together 
with  yellow  leather-strips,  will  go  fine  on  a  leather 
couch. 

besides  pillow  tops,  there  are  so  many  articles 
made  of  leather — and  they  can  be  made  at  home, 
too,  by  one  who  is  at  all  handy — that  no  matter 
how  fastidious  our  friends  may  be,  leather  work 
is  something  nearly  everyone  will  prize.  There  are 
cud  cases,  magazine  covers,  tally-card  covers,  hand- 
kerchief and  tie  boxes,  either  where  the  leather 
is  stretched  around  frames,  or  just  the  soft  folded 
cases  that  take  up  less  room.  These  can  be  made 
in  burnt  work,  conventional  designs,  inlaid  work 
or  applique.  The  inlaid  is  a  conventional  design 
cut  out,  with  the  Oriental  silk  slot  with  gold  thread 
set  in.  The  applique  work  is  smooth  stripes  or 
designs  of  the  leather  appliqued  ou  the  rough  skins, 
or  sometimes  on  satin,  especially  for  an  opera  bag 
or  handkerchief  case.  Light  blue  satin  makes  a 
pretty  lining  for  many  leather  articles,  and  sachet 
powder  may  be  inserted  with  a  little  cotton,  mak- 
ing a  delightful  and  dainty  gift.  Italian  hand- 
embroidered  work  for  pillow  tops,  head  rests,  pic- 
ture frames,  and  on  most  anything  we  can  use 
leather  for,  is  another  elegant  decoration. 
Arts  and  Crafts  in  Many  Lines. 

Cretonne  is  used  very  extensively  for  many 
thiugs.  from  fancy  comforts  tied  or  quilted  with 
silk,  right  througn  the  gamut  of  pillow  tops,  shoe 
bags,  cover  work  boxes,  shirt  waist  boxes,  picture 
frames,  hat-pin  holders  and  lauudry  bags.  There 
are  so  many  different  kinds  of  it  that  it  is  pretty 
fur  either  out  line  stitch,  solid  embroidery  or  just 
etching. 

A  common  packing  case  of  right  dimensions, 
covered  with  heavy  cretonue  with  the  design  out- 
lined in  floss  or  mercerized  cotton  on  the  cover, 
with  large  handles  on  each  end,  and  lined  with  a 
lighter  or  contrasting  shade  of  cambric,  is  .1  con- 
venience that  will  please  maid  or  matron.  On  the 
inside  of  the  cover,  shirr  on  different  sized  pockets 
fur  stiff  collars,  wash  ties,  belts  and  ribbons,  then 
one  won't  have  to  make  a  frenzied  search  through 
boxes,  dresser  drawers  or  cases  for  needed  articles 
when   a   hurried  dressing  is  in  progress. 

Many  other  materials  are  also  used  for  the  above 
list  of  articles,  such  as  domestic  crash,  Indian-head, 
duck  and  galatea.  Netted  fringe  in  the  color  to 
match  the  pillow-top  may  be  served  all  around  or 
on  just  two  ends,  especially  if  the  oblong  shape  is 
chosen.

is  especially  fine  for  handkerchiefs,  gloves  01    ties. 

The  Wurzburg  Needle-craft  Novelties, 
That  come  in  envelopes  with  the  embroidery  silk 
all  ready  to  work,  are  really  an  inspiration  to 
givers,  :is  there  are  many  different  articles  to  select 
from,  such  as  fancj  aprons,  baby  jackets,  safety 
pockets,  and  other  useful  ideas.  A  glance  through 
ih<i  packages  will  decide  many  :i  problem  as  to  the 
suitability  of  gifts.  Aberdeen  crash  is  a  material 
thai  many  useful  and  pretty  things  can  be  made 
nf.  Those  high,  round,  scrap  or  newspapei  boxes, 
of  Aberdeen  crash,  with  the  cross  stich  pattern 
worked  in,  come  in  nicely  by  a  desk  in  the  living 
room  or  den,  and  remind  us  that  our  gentlemen 
friends  must    not    I"'   forgotten. 

There    are     many     ideas    to    Work     out,    and     :i     few 

suggestions  may   possibly  help.     In   leather  g Is,   I 

saw  many  articles  that  most  any  gentleman  would 
appreciate.  A  brush  case,  with  two  flat  brushes, 
one  for  the  hat  and  the  other  for  the  clothes,  is  use- 
ful and  convenient  to  carry.  Those  long  flat  tie 
and  handkerchief  cases  are  nice  for  a  traveling 
bag,  as  space  is  limited.  The  sofl  cuff  and  collar 
box,  stiff  bottom,  but  gathered  in  al  the  top  by 
leather  straps  by  which  it  ran  be  opened  wide,  and 
the  manicure  sets  in  the  same  style,  are  nice  for 
traveling  men  or  stay-at-homes. 

Flat     brush    and    Comb    Sets,    and    small     1  Hindi    sets 

that  can  be  carried  in  the  vest  or  coat  pockets 
nicely,  are  other  new  ideas  for  gentlemen,  in  the 
lunch  sets,  there  arc  single  and  double  sets  of 
knife  and  tork,  or  knife,  fork  and  spoon.  They 
all  close  up  and  tit  into  tiny  compartments,  so 
when  the  case  is  rinsed,  it  looks  like  an  ordina ry 
cigar  case.  Small  jewelry  boxes,  almost  flat  for 
traveling  cases,  to  contain  scarf  pin,  buttons  and 
links,  could  be  made  at  home  in  i  .,e  applique  work, 
and   should   be  closed  with  safety  snaps, 

1,'eu  seems  to  I"'  a  leader  in  men's  scarfs,  four- 
in- bands  and  Imw  ties,  and,  in  t lie  Chanticleer  shade, 
is  particularly  suited  to  dark  eyes  and  hair.  Whole 
sets  of  red  scarf,  handkerchief  and  hose,  in  silk — 
are  now  the  latest.  Most  any  shade  that  is  desired 
can  be  chosen,  but  red  is  the  latest.  Jewelry  sets 
are  also  shown,  such  as  cuff  links,  scarf  pin  and. 
if  desired,  tin\  screw  studs  for  the  front  of  a  dress 
shirt.  Tourmalines  are  the  favorite  stones  now, 
although  it  is  nicer  to  have  the  birth  stone  set  in 
as   a    i'i  el  ty    remembrance. 

There  are  many  other  gifts  for  domestic  gentle- 
men, such  as  silk  lined  bath  robes,  Bmoking  jacket-, 
smoking  sets,  easy  chairs,  and  others  too  numerous 
to   mention. 

But  for  one  and  all,  "A  Merry  Christmas,"  and 
hopes  thai  "Kriss  Kringle"  may  not  forget  one. 
in    all    this    broad    land.

NEW  HALL  FOR  LOS  ANGELES. 

The  Directors  of  the  Native  Suns1  Hall  Associ- 
ation of  Los  Angeles  have  so  far  completed  ar- 
rangements for  building  a  hall  on  Seventeenth 
street,  between  Main  and  Jefferson,  that  work  will 
be  commenced  on  the  structure  December  1st.  The 
building  will  be  a  two-story  brick,  with  walls  of 
Bufficienl  strength  for  two  additional  stories  later 
on.  The  front  will  be  of  pressed  brick,  and  the  en- 
lire  building  will  be  finished  in  the  latest  style. 

The  first  floor  will  contain  store-rooms,  while  the 
upper  will  be  devoted  to  lodge  purposes,  with  espe- 
cial care  as  to  the  ventilation  and  conveniences  for 
fraternal  societies.  The  lodge  hall  will  have  a  maple 
floor  for  dancing.  One  of  the  features  will  be  an 
N.S.G.W.  club-room,  fitted  out  with  all  the  requisites 
necessary  to  comfort  and  pleasure. 

ACTUAL  WORK  BEGUN. 

On  November  5th,  the  directors  of  the  Native 
Suns'  Hall  Association  of  San  Francisco  let  the 
contract  for  the  steel  work  of  the  handsome  struct- 
ure to  be  built  by  the  Order  of  N.S.G.W.  on  Mason 
streel  in  the  metorpolis,  to  a  San  Francisco  concern 
for  $52,915.  The  contract  calls  for  completion  of 
this  work  in  125  working  days,  from  November  5th. 

The  corner-stone  of  the  new  building  will  be  laid 
on  Washington's  birthday,  1911,  just  fifteen  years 
since  the  stone  was  laid  for  the  former  building  at 
the  same  spot.  Work  ou  the  structure  will  go  for- 
ward without  delay,  and  the  building  will  soon  be 
ready   for  occupancy. 

According  to  a  report  by  P.  G.  P.  Charles  Belshaw 
of  the  finance  committee  of  the  hall  association,  an 
additional  sum  of  $40,000  to  what  has  already  been 
subscribed  will  be  necessary  fully  to  complete  and 
furnish  the  building.  With  this  sum,  which  will  un- 
questionably be  subscribed,  the  Native  Sons  will 
own    their    hall    and   lot    free    of    debt,    a   feat   not

An  Attractive  Six -room  California   Bungalow 

(DRAWING  AND  DESCRIPTION  BY  PANAMA  BUILDING  CO.,  LOS  ANGELES.) 


The  sketch  shown  above  represents  a  six-room 
bungalow  which  is  now  being  built  in  South  Pasa- 
dena, California.  The  plan  of  the  building  em- 
braces a  large  living-room,  a  dining-room  adjoin- 
ing, with  a  kitchen  directly  back  of  dining-room, 
while  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  house  is  a  music- 
room,  two  bed-rooms  and  a  bath.  The  entry  is  into 
a  small  reception  hall  between  the  living-room  and 
the  music-room.  The  living-room  is  provided  with 
an  extensive  beamed  ceiling  and  has  a  large  open 
fireplace  on  one  side,  with  a  seat  on  one  side  of  the 
fireplace  and  a  built-in  book-case  on  the  other.  Hard- 


wood floors  are  run  throughout  the  dining-room,  liv- 
ing-room, reception  hall  and  music-room. 

The  outside  presents  an  unique  and  tasty  appear- 
ance, the  roof  being  covered  with  white  asbestos 
preparation  roofing  and  the  walls  with  split  cedar 
shakes,  which  are  left  natural.  All  the  trim  work 
is  rough  Oregon  pine,  and  is  stained  two  coats, 
thus  making  a  house  which  does  not  require  paint- 
ing excepting  as  to  the  sash  and  the  small  amount 
of  other  wood  work.  The  building  cost,  complete, 
$2500.

SACRAMENTO  DIRECTORS  ELECTED. 

At  the  annual  meeting  of  the  stockholders  of  the 
Native  Sons  Hall  Association  of  Sacramento,  to  S.  E. 
Pope,  A.  J.  Delano,  V.  E.  Kohler,  G.  Lichthardt,  E. 
II.  Kraus,  F.  H.  Krebs  and  P.  G.  West  were  elected 
directors  for  the  ensuing  year.  The  directors  later 
organized  by  re-electing  the  following  officers:  E. 
H.  Kraus,  president;  V.  E.  Kohler,  vice-president; 
S.  E.  Pope,  treasurer,  and  P.  G.  West,  secretary. 

There  was  a  large  attendance  of  stockholders  at 
the  meeting,  ninety-five  per  cent  of  whom  were  of 
l  In-  opinion  that,  instead  of  erecting  a  building  on 
1  lie  soxl  60-foot  inside  lot  on  K  street,  between 
Eleventh  and  Twelfth,  now  owned  by  the  associ- 
ation, a  corner  lot  of  the  same  size  on  .1  or  K  street 
should  lie  acquired  for  building  purposes,  and  ac- 
cordingly a  committee  was  appointed  to  get  options 
on  such  a  lot  and  report  at  a  special  meeting,  to  lie 
held  later. 

The  association  is  in  excellent  financial  condition, 
its  lot  is  fully  paid  for,  and  there  is  no  doubt  that, 
at  an  early  date,  active  building  operations  will  be 
commenced,  either  on  the  present  site  or  one  soon 
to  be  acquired. 


NATIVE  SONS  BUILDING  FOR  OAKLAND. 

Athens  Parlor.  No.  196,  N.S.G.W..  of  Oakland,  is 
planning  to  secure  a  new  building  that  can  be  used 
as  a  club-house  and  lodge-rooms  for  all  the  Alameda 
County  Parlors  of  the  Order.  It  is  planned  to  in- 
stall gymnasium,  library,  billiard  and  pool  room,  and 
also  provide  a  large  dancing  hall.  The  committee 
in  charge  is  composed  of  E.  F.  Garrison.  ( '.  F.  Cor

Pay  Fraternal  Visit. 
A  large  number  of  the  members  of  Petaluma  Par- 
lor, Xo.  27,  N.S.G.W..  paid  ;i  fraternal  visit  to 
Sebastopol  Parlor,  No.  143,  N.S.G.W.,  November 
17th,  and  were  entertained  at  a  banquet,  following 
which  many  speeches  pertaining,  to  the  Order  were 
listened  to.  Prior  to  the  social  session,  the  Sebasto- 
pol  Natives  initiated  a  class  of  candidates. 


Two  New  Parlors  for  N.S.G.W. 
Grand  <  )rganizer  Andrew  Mocker  is  about  to 
institute  two  more  new  Parlors  of  Native  Sons — 
one  in  Dunsmuir  and  the  other  in  Red  Bluff.  These 
Parlors  will  very  likely  become  parts  of  the  State 
organization  before  December   is  well   advanced.

Grand  President   Daniel  A.   Ryan  moved  the  adop 
tion    of    the    following    resolution:      "RESOLVED, 
that   it   be  the  sense  of  the  Hoard  of  Grand  '  ifficers

The  Grand  Secretary  thereupon  read  a  letter  of 
explanation  from  Clarence  M.  Hunt,  the  manager 
of  the  Grizzly  Pear  Magazine,  to  Grand  President 
Ryan,   in    part   as  follows: 

Los  Angeles,  November  -,  1910. 
Daniel   X.  Ryan,  Grand  President, 

San  Francisco,  Cal. 
Dear  .Sir  and  Brother:  Your  telegram  was  re- 
ceived at  I  P.  M.  today  *  *.  I  presume 
your  reference  is  duo  to  the  unintentional  leav- 
ing off  of  the  word  advertisement,  as  above  the 
advertisement  of  Theodore  Bell.  If  such  is  the 
case,]  want  to  assure  you  that  the  blame, 
although  wholly  unintentional  on  my  part,  rests 
entirely  upon  me,  and  not  upon  the  magazine,  and 
any  punishment  I  think  Bhould  be  meted  out  to 
myself,  and  not  to  those  Who  have  faithfully 
worked  in  the  interest  of  Mn-  publication,  or  to 
the  magazine  itself. 

The  first  knowledge  1  had  that  this  Brror  had 
crept  iti  was  when  Brother  Howard  Bpoke  to  me 
about  it  last  night,  after  all  the  magazines  had 
been  mailed.  I  immediately  saw  that,  due  en- 
tirely to  myself,  the  classification  line  had  been 
omitted  by  the   printers.     I  make  up  the  pages  in 

dun 's.  the  printers  prepare   the  forms  from  these, 

and  then  send  me  a  proof  of  the  pages  to  mark 
anj   errors  in  the  make-up.     The  dummy  for  page 

9  had  the  classification  over  the  Hell  ad.,  hut  the 
printers  railed  to  put  it  in,  and  I  failed  t«>  note 
the  error  in  going  over  the  proof  of  that  page. 
We  have  been  laboring  under  great  difficulties  iu 
getting  out  the  paper  since  the  fire,  and  I  have 
worked  on  the  November  issue  under  more  or  less 
strain,  which  is  accountable  for  this  error  creep- 
ing in.  I  can  assure  you  that  it  was  not  in  any 
way    intentional    on    my    part. 

As  I  said  above,  I  alone  am  responsible  for  the 
error,  and  I  am  willing  to  shoulder  the  blame  and 
accepl  the  criticism  or  punishment  that  might  be 
decided  upon,  but  do  not  think  the  magazine 
should    be    made    to    hear    the    burden.      *      * 

Assuring  you  of  my  deepest  regret  that  this 
has   occurred,   and   with  best    wishes   for   yourself, 

I    remain. 

Fraternally, 

(Signed)  Clarence  M.  Hunt.

Children's  Agency  Dinner. 
Tracy — El  Pescadero  Parlor,  No.  S2,  served  a 
chicken  pie  dinner  on  the  afternoon  of  October 
7th,  at  35  cents  per  plate.  It  seemed  as  if  all 
Tin  ,  was  hungry,  the  way  people  floekel  in  to 
partake  of  the  splendid  dinner.  The  girls  certain- 
ly appreciated  the  kindly  patronage  of  the  people, 
and  the  many  eourtsies  extended  them,  in  assisting 
so  -worthy  a  cause,  as  the  entire  receipts  will  be 
sent  to  the  Homeless  Children's  Agency. 


Indoor   Picnic   for   Charity. 

Stockton — Joaquin  Parlor,  No.  5,  N.  D.  6.  W., 
and  Stockton  Parlor,  No.  7,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  gave  an 
indoor  picnic  for  the  benefit  of  the  homeless  chil- 
dren's fund,  October  19th.  It  was  a  success  in 
every  seuse  of  the  word  and  netted  each  Parlor  a 
splendid  fund  for  the  cause.  A  royal  good  time 
was  bad  by  all  who  attended. 

On  October  25th,  Joaquin  Parlor,  No.  5,  observed 
Flag  Day.  and  the  event  was  one  of  the  most  en- 
joyable in  the  Parlor's  history.  The  hall  had  been 
'tastefully  decorated  with  pepper  boughs,  flags  and 
tri-colored  ribbons — the  red,  white  and  blue — and 
the  refreshments  bore  out  the  tri-eolors,  in  that, 
they  were  decorated  with  tiny  silken  flags,  as 
souvenirs  for  each  guest.  The  program  was  as  fol- 
lows: Piano  solo,  "Stars  and  Stripes  Forever." 
Carrie  Eshbach;  song,  "Betsy  Ross,"  illustrated 
with  tableau,  Caroline  Spare;  tableau.  Susie  Byrnes

recited  by  Carolyn  Spare,  the  Parlor 's  president. 


Raising  Grand  Parlor  Funds. 
Santa  Cruz — Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  23,  inaug- 
urated a  card  tournament  October  30th,  the  proceeds 
to  go  to  a  fund  being  collected  for  eutertainment  of 
the  1911  Grand  Parlor,  which  meets  here.  The 
tournament  is  to  continue  four  successive  Monday 
evenings,  and  on  the  last  night  prizes  will  be 
a  war-led  and  refreshments  served.  These  tourna- 
ments have  been  features  of  the  social  life  of  Santa 
Cruz  for  a  number  of  years  past,  and  the  city 
ambulance,  presented  by  the  Native  Daughters,  was 
largely  purchased  through  the  results  of  the  card 
tournaments.

dressed William  Miner,  thanking  him  for  the  many 
favors  he  had  extended  Piedmont  Parlor  on  Sep- 
tember 9th  and  other  occasions,  and  in  behalf  of 
the  members  of  the  Parlor  presented  him  a  hand-

tribute  to  the  Pioneer  Mothers.  The  program  con- 
sisted of:  Selections,  Grammar  School  pupils; 
recitation.  Master  Elwyn  McClure;  eulogy  to  the 
American  Flag,  Bryan  Ahl  and  Julia  Reed;  cornet 
solos,  Master  Daniel  Shelton.  At  the  conclusion 
of  the  youngsters'  part  of  the  program,  the  Pioneers 
took  a  hand,  and  interesting  early-day  experiences 
were  recounted  by  Mr.  Lyon,  Captain  Lea  and  Mrs. 
Mails.  Captain  Lea  confined  his  remarks  to  General 
Bidwell,  paying  that  Pioneer  a  glowing  tribute. 
He  suggested  that  the  Native  Daughters  should 
take  up  the  movement  to  have  Mt.  Shasta  named 
after  General  Bidwell,  since  he  believed  that  he 
is  the  man  that  discovered  this  mountain.  Mrs. 
Mails,  the  oldest  Pioneer  present,  was  presented 
with  a  bouquet  of  flowers.  As  the  Pioneers  entered 
the  hall,  their  names  and  dates  of  arrival  in  Cali-

Grand  President  Pays  Visits. 

Jamestown — Grand  President  Mamie  G-.  Ivvtnn 
of  Stockton  officially  visited  Anona  Parlor,  No. 
164-j  at  a  special  meeting  the  afternoon  of  Novem- 
ber 7th,  and  highly  complimented  the  Parlor  on 
its  growth  and  strength.  A  short  program  was 
rendered,  and  dainty  refreshments  were  served. 

In  the  evening  the  Grand  President  visited  Darda- 
nelle  Parlor,  No.  66,  at  Sonora,  and  was  accompa- 
nied   bv   thirteen    members   of    Anona    Parlor. 


Members  Show  Decided  Interest. 

Georgetown — Since  its  institution,  less  than  six 
months  ago.  El  Dorado  Parlor,  No  186,  has  initiated 
five  new  members,  and  expects  to  double  that  num- 
ber in  the  next  six  months.  It  has  been  meeting 
on  the  second  and  fourth  Wednesday  afternoons  of 
each  month,  but  expects  to  change  to  Saturday 
afternoons,  as  a  greater  convenience  to  some  of 
the  members,  many  of  whom  come  ten  miles  to  the 
meetiug,  but  nevertheless  the  average  of  officers 
absent  during  the  six  months  has  been  less  than 
one  per  meeting.  At  a  recent  meeting  the  financial 
secretary,  not  being  able  to  procure  a  horse  to  get 
here,  walked  the  ten  miles  from  her  home,  and 
there  are  many  other  just  as  enthusiastic  members. 

The  Parlor  joined  with  Georgetown  Parlor,  No. 
91,  N.S.G.W.,  and  gave  a  Thanksgiving  ball  for 
the  benefit  of  the  homeless  children. 


Pioneers  Honored.

were  tendered  a  reception  on  October  22nd,  by  the 
members  of  Placer  Parlor,  No.  138.  It  has  been  the 
custom  of  Placer  Parlor  to  entertain  the  Pioneers 
once  a  year.  A  musical  and  literary  program  had 
been  arranged,  and  at  the  conclusion  a  banquet 
was  served.  Many  of  the  Pioneers  related  their 
experiences  of  the  "days  of  old,"  which  were  en- 
joyed in  the  fullest.  Each  Pioneer  guest  was  pre- 
sented with  a   silver  souvenir  spoon. 


Flag   Day   Celebrated. 
Chico — Anna  K.  Bidwell  Parlor,  No.  168,  did  not 
allow   Flag   Day  to   pass  without   appropriate   cere-

Twenty-sixth    Birthday   Anniversary. 

Los  Angeles — Los  Angeles  Parlor,  No.  45,  cele- 
brated its  twenty-sixth  anniversary  with  a  banquet, 
November  16th,  at  which  seventy  members  of  the 
Order  were  present.  An  excellent  menu  had  been 
provided,  followed  by  a  reign  of  oratory.  M.  B. 
Silberberg,  the  toastmaster,  was  down  on  the  score 
card  as  the  "silver  tongue  sandwich,"  and  good- 
natured  ' ( familiar  quotations' '  were  appended  to 
the  program's  introduction  of  each  speaker.  I.  W. 
Birnbaum  arranged  the  entertainment,  and  a  glance 
at  the  map  handed  out  for  the  guidance  of  the  guests 
showed  that  he  was  familiar  with  each  speaker's 
hobby. 

Mr.  Silberberg  made  a  witty  and  interesting  toast- 
master,  and  as  his  introductions  tended  largely 
to  humor,  the  several  responses  were,  as  a  matter

The  Passing  of  the  Pioneer 


George  Perry,  who  came  to  California  around  the 
Horn  in  1849,  passed  away  reeently  at  Antioch, 
survived  by  three  sons.  Deceased  was  S3  years  of 
age,  and  had  experienced  many  of  the  hardships 
of  the   early-day  Pioneers. 

Wm.  H.  White,  who  came  across  the  plains  in  an 
ox  team  in  1849,  passed  away  recently  at  Delano. 
He  was  a  native  of  Tennessee,  aged  SI  years.  For 
many  years  deceased  followed  mining,  then  farmed 
in  Sonoma  County,  and  about  twenty  years  ago 
took   up    his   residence   in    Delano. 

Jacob  Schwaii,  a  Pioneer  resident  of  Santa  Cruz 
County,  died  recently  at  Twin  Lakes,  aged  81 
years,  and  survived  by  a  widow.  Early  in  1S49, 
in  New  York  City,  Mr.  Schwan  and  Elizabeth  Trust 
were  wedded,  and  their  honeymoon  trip  was  a  voy- 
age around  the  Horn  to  California,  where  they  ar- 
rived six  months  later.  They  remained  in  San 
Francisco  until  fifty  years  ago,  when  they  located 
at  Twin  Lakes.  Deceased  and  his  surviving  widow 
were  very  active  Pioneer  workers  in  the  cause 
of  Christianity  in  this  State. 

Mrs.  Eliza  Jane  Smith,  a  California  Pioneer 
aged  S2  years,  passed  away  in  Stockton  recently,

State  in  1849,  and  after  an  eight-months'  trip 
across  the  plains  in  an  ox  team,  arrived  at  French 
Camp,  San  Joaquin  County,  in  1S50,  where  they 
camped  for  six  weeks.  They  theu  went  to  Sonora, 
where  the  doctor  practiced  medicine  until  his 
death. 

Silas  William  Morrison,  a  Pioneer  of  Humboldt 
County,  died  recently  in  Ferndale.  He  was  a  na- 
tive of  Ohio,  aged  83  years,  and  is  survived  by  a 
widow  and  three  sons.  Deceased,  with  two  younger 
brothers,  left  Iowa  for  the  California  gold  fields  in 
the  fall  of  1849,  and  arrived  here  in  the  spring  of 
1850.  After  mining  in  El  Dorado  County  for  a 
time,  he  went  to  Trinity  County  and  engaged  in 
stock  raising,  but  in  1856  took  up  his  residence  .in 
Humboldt  County.  A  delegation  from  Ferndale 
Parlor  of  Native  Daughters  attended  his  funeral

by   seven   children. 

Captain  Amos  Lorenzo  Hewitt,  who  came  around 
the  Horn  in  1S49,  died  reeently  at  Martinez,  sur- 
vived by  a  widow  and  three  daughters.  He  was  a 
native  of  Kentucky,  aged  7S  years,  and  up  to 
thirty-five  years  ago,  when  he  went  to  Martinez 
to  reside,  had  followed  a  sea-faring  life. 

Mrs.  Mary  Robinson,  a  California  Pioneer,  passed 
away  at  Bangor,  Butte  County,  recently,  survived 
by  three  children.  Deceased  was  a  native  of  Scot- 
land, where  she  was  born  in  1828.  She  came  to 
this  country  with  her  parents,  and  in  1849  crossed 
the  plains  with  the  family  by  ox  train.  After  ar- 
riving in  California,  the  party  stopped  at  Placer- 
ville,  where  they  resided  until  1S58,  when  Mrs.  Rob- 
inson moved  to  Bangor,  where  she  had  since  re- 
sided. 

C.  B.  Churchill,  who  engaged  in  mining  operations 
around  Sacramento  in  1850,  died  recently  at  Escon- 
dido,  San  Diego  County.  He  was  a  native  of  New 
York,  aged  82  years,  and  is  survived  by  five  child- 
ren.    After  mining  in  this  State  several  years,  de-

band and  nine  children. 

Guy  E.  Morrison,  who  mined  near  Oroville  in 
1850,  after  an  ox-team  journey  across  the  plains, 
died  recently  at  Petaluma,  where  he  had  resided 
many  years.  He  was  a  native  of  Missouri,  aged 
nearly  96  years,  and  is  survived  by  a  daughter, 
Mrs.  Anna  Morrison  Reed,  editor  and  proprietor

1NCE  THE  CLOSE  OF  THE  BASE- 
ball  season,  football  lias  had  the 
center  of  the  stage  and.  judging 
from  the  results  of  some  of  the  big 
college  events,  the  game  as  now 
played  is  almost  as  uncertain  as 
baseball.  As  an  illustration,  Yale 
was  beaten  by  several  of  the 
smaller  colleges,  Wesley,  Brown, 
and  West  Point  having  decidedly 
bested  the  New  Haven  college  team; 
then,  in  turn,  the  Sons  of  old  Eli 
defeated  the  supposedly  strung  Princeton  team,  and 
the  following  week  played  a  0-to-0  tie  with  Har- 
vard, which  practically  amounted  to  a  defeat  for 
the  latter. 

Auto-racing,  aviating,  tennis,  polo  and  cricket 
are  also  attracting  considerable  attention,  and  each 
has  its  quota  of  devotees.  Many  amateur  baseball 
clubs  are  tending  to  keep  the  fire  of  enthusiasm 
at  least  smouldering  in  the  baseball  fans,  and 
several  winter  leagues  have  been  organized. 
Throughout  California,  Thanksgiving  Day  was  so 
spring  like,  that  outdoor  sports  were  engaged  in 
all  over  the  State,  and  attracted  thousands  of  spec- 
tators. 


Portland  Wins  Pennant — New  Faces. 

The  most  successful  season  since  the  organization 
of  the  Pacific  Coast  League  closed  on  November 
6th.  At  a  recent  meeting  of  the  directors  of  the 
League,  the  pennant  was  awarded  to  Portland, 
which  club  won  first  honors  by  consistent  work. 
The  decision  of  President  Graham,  by  which  three 
games  won  by  Portland  were  decided  in  favor  of 
Oakland,  because  Portland  insisted  on  playing  Het- 
ling — who  belonged  to  another  club — was  affirmed 
by  the  National  Commission,  the  supreme  court  of 
baseball.  The  loss  of  these  games  did  not  affect 
Portland's  standing. 

When  the  gong  sounds  for  the  opening  in  1911 
many  new  faces  will  be  seen  on  the  Pacific  Coast 
circuit.  Los  Angeles  in  particular  will  have  a  recon- 
structed club,  with  about  eight  new  ones;  Portland, 
San  Francisco  and  Oakland  follow,  with  about  five 
each;  Vernon  and  Sacramento  will  have  three  or 
four.  Manager  Berry  of  the  Angel  bunch  won  the 
pennant  two  seasons  ago,  in  1908,  and  made  the 
same  mistake  made  by  so  many  managers,  of  being 
satisfied  to  leave  well  enough  alone,  instead  of 
endeavoring  to  strengthen  by  the  addition  of  new 
material  each  year.  He  will  now  have  to  obtain 
an  entirely  new  infield  instead  of  changing  only 
one  position  each  year.  Halihan,  a  most  promising 
youngster,  lias  been  drafted;  Howard  has  decided 
to  retire  to  his  farm,  rather  than  play  in  Los  An- 
geles another  season;  Delmas  wants  a  change,  and 
Dillon  expects  to  manage  from  the  bench.  Our  next 
issue  will  meution  names  of  some  of  the  new 
players  that  will  be  seen  on   the  Coast. 


In 


California  Bests   Stanford, 
the    fastest    and    most    spectacular    exhibition 


of  Rugby  ever  witnessed  on  the  Pacific  Coast,  the 
University  of  California  football  team  won  a  clear- 
cut  victory  from  their  Stanford  rivals  at  California 
field,  November  12th,  by  a  score  of  25  to  6.  A 
record  crowd  of  spectators,  estimated  at  23,000, 
was  in  attendance,  and  the  game  was   played  in   a

Santa    Monica   Auto    Races. 

It  is  estimated  that  not  less  than  60,000  people 
witnessed  the  great  automobile  road  races  at  Santa 
Monica,  Los  Angeles  County,  on  Thanksgiving  Day. 
The  day  was  a  typical  Southern  California  one,  and 
the  events   were   productive  of  great  excitement. 

In  the  free-for-all  race.  202.008  miles,  eight  motors 
started.  The  Loziej  car,  driven  by  Teddy  Tetz- 
leff,  won;  time  2h  49.59m.  Pope-Hartford  car.  driven 
by  Bert  Dingley,  second;  time  31i  4m  47  1-os.  The 
average  speed  of  the  Lozier  was  71.4:?  miles  an 
hour. 

There  were  seven  starters  in  the  heavy  stock 
car  event,  151.506  miles.  The  Lozier  won  in  2h  4ni 
10  4-5s.  The  car  averaged  73.27  miles  an  hour, 
breaking  all  American  records.  The  Pope-Hartfurd 
was  second,  time,  2h  Him  3-5s. 

The  light  and  medium  car  race,  101.004  miles, 
which  was  run  shortly  after  daylight,  was  won  by 
the  Durocar.  .1.  McKeague,  driver,  in  lh  41m  4  3  5s. 
The  Maxwell,  Clarenee  Smith,  driver,  came  second, 
in  lh,  42m,  44s. 

So  anxious  were  thousands  of  people  to  see  the 
races  that  they  went  to  Santa  Monica  the  night 
before  Thanksgiving,  and  many  paraded  the  beach 
all  night,  in  order  to  be  on  hand  for  the  opening 
event,  which  was  billed  for  an  early  hour.  As 
many  as  five  thousand  automobiles,  each  crowded  to 
full  capacity  of  human  freight,  filled  the  park 
space  along  the  course,  set  aside  for  chug-wagons. 

The  immenseerowd  was  in  good  humor,  and  there 
was  no  difficulty  in  handling  it.  Those  who  have 
followed  the  auto  races  from  place  to  place  state 
that  the  Santa  Monica  affair  was  the  most  success- 
ful, from  every  point  of  view,  ever  held  on  this 
Coast.

December  9th,  10th  and  11th,  in  which  all  the 
Curtiss  team  will  participate,  in  addition  to  the 
English   aviator   Radley  with   a  Bleriot   monoplane. 

The    Aero    Club    of    California    is    also    making 


AMATEUR     t 


preparations  for  a  big  "flying1'  fest  in  Los  Angeles 
early  in  the  new  year.  The  meet  last  year  was  such 
a  success  in  every  particular  that  aviators  are 
anxious  to  again  come  to  the  southern  city;  and 
the  thousands  who  enjoyed  the  trials  then,  will  no 
doubt  come  again,  and.  bring  other  thousands  with 
them.  The  flights  will  very  likely  be  from  Domin- 
guez,  a  short  distance  from  Los  Angeles,  the  same 
place  selected  for  last  year's  events. 


To  Fly  in  San  Francisco. 

Fifty  San  Francisco  citizens  have  pledged  a 
fund  for  prizes  and  accepted  the  tender  of  a  big 
traet  of  land  uear  Tanforan  race  track,  for  the 
holding  of  an  aviation  meet,  in  that  city  soon  after 
the  first  of  the  year.  Fifty  thousand  dollars  in 
prizes  will  be-  guaranteed  and  the  committee  will 
gather  a  sum  more  closely  approaching  $100,000. 
The  meet  will  be  conducted  under  the  auspices  of 
the  committee  to  be  known  as  the  Panama-Pacific 
Aeronautics  Company. 

It  is  said  that  nearly  all  of  the  prominent  aviators 
will  take  part,  including  Brookins  and  Hoxsey,  of 
the  Wright  team;  Glenn  H.  Curtiss,  Ely  and  Wil- 
lard,  of  the  Curtiss  team;  Moissant,  Lathem,  Garros, 
Audemars,  Hamilton  and  propably  de  Lesseps.  One 
of  the  features  will  be  a  flight  from  Sacramento, 
via  Stockton  to  San  Francisco,  a  distance  of  more 
than  100  miles. 


Handsome  New  Structure. 

The  Los  Angeles  Athletic  Club  has  secured  a 
building  permit  for  the  erection  of  its  elegant  new 
quarters  on  Seventh  and  Olive  streets,  to  cost 
$650,000.  The  building  will  be  of  steel  frame  con- 
struction and  fireproof.  It  will  be  one  of  the  finest 
athletic  club  buildings  in  the  country.  Actual  con- 
struction work  has  been  begun. 

While  the  ground  floor  will  be  devoted  to  store 
rooms,  it  will  also  contain  au  entrance  lobby  for 
the  use  of  club  members.  The  club  portion  of  the 
building  will  contain  a  large  and  perfectly  equipped 
gymnasium,  luxurious  lounging  rooms  and  dormitory 
facilities,  swimming  tank,  and  every  other  con- 
ceivable adjunct  of  an  up-to-date  athletic  club.

Importance  of  the 

Home  Industry  Movement 

(  BY  W.  B.  WEBSTER.) 

HE  HOME  INDUSTRY  LEAGUE  OF 

California     seems     to     have     at     last 

struck    a    responsive    interest     i 

citizens  as  to  the  great  waul  of  :i 
movement  of  this  kind.  California 
has  ton  long  suffered  from  apathy, 
or  lack  of  interest,  in  connection 
with  fostering  our  home -manufac- 
tured products,  and  they  have  been 
gradually  dropping  off  for  the  last 
six  years.  It  is  true  that  the  late 
destruction  of  Sa  n  Francisco  was 
the  direct  cause  of  a  large  number  of  manufac- 
turing concerns  going  out  of  business,  and  the 
reason  they  then  were  discontinued  was  not  from 
lack  of  capital  or  energy  to  build  theru  up  again. 
but  from  the  poor  encouragement  received  in  the 
home   market   previous  to   the   tire. 

Why  should  we  send  our  cream  of  tartar  East, 
to  be  made  into  baking  powder;  or  our  beans  tu 
be  cooked  and  canned  for  us   in   some  other   state, 

when    lint  h    articles    could    be    prepared    for    the    ma  i 
ket     here  '       Such     industries     would     give     employ 
ment    to    our    own    people    in    the    making    of    cans, 
printing   of   labels,    making   of    packing    boxes,   etc., 
for    all    of    which    we    now    send    our    money     East, 

when    we    can.    and    do,    produce    just     as    g |,    and 

at  as  cheap  a  price,  in  our  own  State.  This 
applies  not  only  to  the  above  articles,  but  to  hun- 
dreds of  ot  hers  of  which  we  are  heavy  importei 
llow  can  we  Successfully  bid  for  immigration,  un- 
less we  can  provide  means  of  employmenl  for  the 
new  arrivals  when  we  get  them  lure'  They  can't 
all  be  farmers  and  fruit  raisers.  How  can  we 
expect  to  attract  other  manufactories  to  our 
vicinity  when  they  cannot  help  but  see  how  indif- 
ferent we  are  to  the  sucess  of  those  already  here? 
We  have  a  great  State  here,  lavishly  endowed 
by  nature,  and  with  an  equable  climate  in  which 
all  enterprises  can  lie  conducted  every  day  of  the 
year.  We  have  an  abundance  of  cheap  fuel  right 
at  our  very  door  and  yet,  with  all  these  natural 
advantages  at  our  heck  and  call,  we  show  less 
advance  in  improving  our  opportunities  than  most 
any   state    in    the    Union.      This    is   a    condition    that 


WFSTPffl  cars    are    'uxuri°usly    roomy, 

II  Lu  I  UU  I  I  comfortable    and     easy;    me- 

chanically, the  best  that  money,  skill  and  deter- 
mination  can   produce.      Get    a   Demonstration.

themselves.     They   do    nol    Beem    to   grasp   the    im

a  strong  plea  for  their  patronage  and  support — 
and  they  have  been  promised  that  support  by  the 
d ilVe rent  women 's  clubs,  the  Native  Sons'  ami 
Native    Daughters'    organizations,    and    other    civic 

clubs    of    the    State. 

With  this  campaign  of  publicity,  the  help  of  a 
live  organization  of  tins  kind,  and  the  eo  opera- 
tion of  our  consuming  public,  California  should. 
in  a  great  measure,  emerge  from  its  position  of 
apathy  in  regard  to  its  own  resources  and  lake 
that     place    in    the    front     line    of    our    commonwealths 

that    its  geographical    position,   its  climate,   and   its 

wealth,    as    endowed    by    nature,    entitle    it    to.

HE  NEW  YORK  TIMES  OF  No- 
vember 16th,  has  the  following,  in 
refernee  to  the  much-advertised  the- 
atrical war.  that  will  be  of  interest 
to  all  theater-goers:  ""Announce- 
ment was  made  last  night  that  an 
agreement  had  been  reached  be- 
tween Frohman,  Klaw  &  Erlanger, 
and  John  Cort,  representing  the  Na- 
tional Theater  Owners'  Associa- 
tion, whereby  the  attractions  of  the 
former  will  hereafter  be  booked  in 
the  houses  controlled  by  the  Theater  Owners'  As- 
sociation. This  agreement  will  tend  to  clear  up 
the  theatrical  situation  and  to  put  an  end  to  the 
so-called  'theatrical  war'  that  has  been  waged  for 
the  last  eight  months  or  more.  The  Theater 
Owners'  Association  controls  most  of  the  'one- 
night  stands'  in  the  United  States,  and  when  it 
was  formed  last  spring,  it  announced  its  policy  to 
be  expressly  that  of  'open  door'  for  all  meritorious 
theatrical  attractions.  A  clause  in  the  by-laws  pre- 
vented any  theater  manager  in  the  association 
from  booking  attractions  with  an  agent  who  repre- 
sented more  than  two  producing  managers,  there- 
by making  it  impossible  for  the  members  to  ac- 
cept bookings  from  Klaw  &  Erlanger  as  booking 
agents. 

"About  two  weks  ago  it  became  known  that 
conferences  were  being  held  between  Mr.  Cort, 
president  of  the  association,  and  Klaw  &  Erlanger, 
looking  toward  some  sort  of  agreement  between 
them  that  would  be  satisfactory  to  both  sides.  Up 
to  a  few  days  ago  the  parties  concerned  denied 
that  any  agreement  had  been  made.  The  announce- 
ment of  last  night  clears  up  any   uncertainty. 

"This  arrangement  means  that  the  smaller  cities 
will  have  the  attractions  of  both  the  Theatric;il 
Syndicate  and  the  so-called  independents.  As  mat- 
ters stood  at  the  beginnning  of.  this  season,  the 
theater  manager  was  suffering  for  lack  of  attrac- 
tions to  fill  his  houses,  and  the  producer  of  one 
side  or  the  other  had  only  a  few  places  to  send 
his  plays.  The  arrangement  will  give  both  house 
manager  and  play  manager  inore  opportunity  for 
financial  success:" 

From  the  office  of  John  Cort,  representing  the 
Theater  Owners'  Association,  the  following  has 
been  sent  out :  ' '  An  agreement  was  reached  yes- 
terday between  Frohman,  Klaw  &  Erlanger,  and 
John  Cort,  representing  the  National  Theater 
Owners'  Association,  whereby  the  attractions  of 
the  former  will  hereafter  be  booked  in  the  houses 
controlled  by  the  National  Theater  Owners'  As- 
sociation. This  clears  up  the  general  theatrical 
situation.' ' 

The  New  York  Herald,  commenting  on  the  news, 
said:  "There  is  a  clearing  of  the  theatrical  skies 
that  for  months  have  been  overcast  by  a  'war' 
waged  between  Messrs.  Klaw  &  Erlanger  and 
Charles  Frohman  against  the  National  Theater 
Owners'  Association,  of  which  John  Cort  is  presi- 
dent. Mr.  Cort  obtained  control  of  several  theatri- 
cal circuits  in  the  West,  in  which  he  has  not  booked 
any  of  the  attractions  handled  by  Messrs  Froh 
man,  Klaw  &  Erlanger,  or  the  many  producing 
firms  allied  with  them.  While  Mr.  Cort  is  affiliated 
with  the  Messrs.  Shubert.  the  new  agreement,  it  is 
said,  will  not  affect  the  .Shubert  attractions  or  uf 
their  allies.  In  the  future  Mr.  Cort  will  book  in 
the   circuits  controlled  by  him  any  attraction    that 


'  Messrs.  Frohman,  Klaw  &  Erlanger  send  to  him. 
The  Messrs  Shubert  themselves  book  their  own 
attractions  and  those  of  their  allied  managers  in 
the  theaters  under  their  control  both  in  and  out 
of     New  York." 

The  agreement  above  referred  to  will  likely  be 
little  nocited,  as  we  in  California  have  not  been 
lacking  attractions — unless  we  would  specify  GOOD 
attractions.  In  fact,  we  have  been  having  so  many 
plays  this  season  that  it  has  been  hard  to  keep 
track  of  them.  And  no  small  percentage,  of  the 
plays  at  least,  if  not  the  players,  have  been  away 
below  standard.  It  seems  the  so-called  "war" 
was  centered  in  this  State,  and  as  a  result  we  got 
every  traveling  company  that  had  the  fare.  Maybe 
the  new  arrangement  will  be  of  benefit  to  us,  in 
that  it  may  be  the  means  of  crossing  off  from  the 
California  bookings  all  but  the  best  plays  and  the 
best  players.

Above  are  two  little  native  daughters — Nevea 
and  Audrey  Wilbur,  children  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.  W. 
D.  Wilbur  of  Janesville,  Lassen  County.  They  are 
leaning  against  the  trunk  of  a  sturdy  oak  tree, 
wThieh  their  Pioneer  grandfather,  Wiley  Cornelison, 
when  he  first  went  to  Lassen  County,  was  able 
to  bend  to  the  ground  by  the  top.  The  tree  still 
stands  on  the  Cornelison  ranch;  note  its  size  now, 
and  compare  it  with  what  it  must  have  been  when 
the  old  Pioneer  first  saw  it. 


Madame  Sarah  Bernhardt  appeared  recently  in 
the  English  Opera  House,  Indianapolis,  to  the 
largest    audience    in    the    house's    history. 

John  Philip  Sousa,  the  band  conductor  and  com- 
poser, is  confined  to  the  General  Hospital  in  New 
Haven,  suffering  from  an  attack  of  malarial  fever. 

Olga  Nethersole  has  returned  from  London  with 
a  new  play,  name  unknown  to  the  public,  in  which 
she  will  star  under  the  management  of  Liebler 
&  Co. 

The  Shuberts  announce  that  another  $1,000  has 
been  added  to  their  order  for  the  best  operetta 
by  American  authors  and  composers,  similar  in 
type  to  "Madame  Troubador. " 

Mrs.  Patrick  Campbell  has  come  over  from  Lon- 
don to  starin  "The  Foolish  Virgin,"  under  Charles 
Frohman 's  management.  Mrs.  Campbell  will  be 
remembered  as  the  Sorceress,  in  Sardou's  play  of 
that   name.

Russian  Dancers  Invade  California. 

Nothing  theatrical  that  has  been  in  California 
for  some  time  has  attracted  so  much  attention  as 
have  the  Russian  dancers.  Anna  .Pavlowa  and 
Mikail  Mordkin,  supported  by  the  Imperial  Russian 
ballet.  It  is  reported  that  these  dancers  were  only 
allowed  to  tour  America  after  a  special  arrange- 
ment with  the  Russian  Government.  They  were 
originally  brought  over  to  appear  at  the  Metropoli- 
tan Opera  House,  New  York,  and  met  with  so  much 
success  that  a  tour  of  this  country  was  arranged, 
and  these  charming  entertainers  are  now  appearing 
in  several  California  cities.  They  are  accompanied 
by  the  famous  orchestra  of  New  York's  Metropoli- 
tan Opera  House,  under  direction  of  Theodore  Stier. 

The  troupe  presents  spectacular  ocular  opera  bal- 
lets and  character  dances,  appearing  in  the 
"Giselle"  ballet  in  two  acts;  the  "Azyade"  bal- 
let ("The  Arabian  Nights")  and  the  "Coppelia, " 
variations.  Five  carloads  of  scenery  are  used  in 
the  productions,  and  the  ballet  consists  of  thirty 
Russian  dancers.  The  interpretation  of  these 
"ocular  operas" — operas  in  action — is  a  distinctly 
Russian  art.  and  while  the  dancing  of  the  principals, 
Pavlowa  and  Mordkin,  is  inspiring,  the  effect  of  the 
performances  in  the  whole  is  said  to  be  wonderful. 
Much  favorable  comment  has  been  given  the  at- 
tractions.

"The  Test"  is  an  emotional  play,  and  has  a  love

the  entire  piece,  and  when  the  curtain  falls  on  the

BAKERSFIELD   NATIVE  DAUGHTERS 

START    CLUB-ROOM    MOVEMENT. 

On  October  28th  the  Native  Daughters  of  Tejon 
Parlor,  No.  136,  Bakersfield,  gave  a  Hallowe'en  ball, 
which  was  a  success  in  every  particular.  The  large 
hall  was  decorated  with  greenery  and  Hallowe'en 
fancies,  together  with  the  flags  and  colors  of  the 
Order.  Music  was  a  special  feature,  and  appropriate 
for  the  occasion.  Seventeen  numbers  were  on  the 
dance  program,  and  each  was  dedicated  to  something 
revered  by  the  Native  Daughters.  The  grand  march 
was  led  by  Miss  Annie  C.  Train,  District  Deputy 
Grand  President  of  the  Parlor,  and  A.  B.  Johnson, 
the  president  and  vice-president  of  the  Parlor,  fol- 
lowing with  their  escorts.  The  gowns  worn  by  the 
women  were  very  beautiful  and  chosen  with  the 
idea  of  making  a  pretty  blending  to  the  color  scheme 
as  the  couples  countermarched. 

In  a  booth  gay  with  flowers  and  festoons  of  yel- 
low, two  dainty  Native  Daughters  served  fruit 
punch  from  out  huge  pumpkins.  A  goodly  sum  was 
realized  from  the  door  receipts.  The  Parlor  expects 
to  give  many  such  affairs  this  season,  and  with  the 
proceeds   hopes   to   build   its   own   club-room. 

Following  is  the  order  of  dances,  which  was 
printed  on  yellow  cards,  with  yellow  cords  and 
pencils  attached:  Grand  march,  "California;" 
waltz,  ' '  Native  Daughters; ' '  two  step,  ' '  Native 
Sons;"  waltz,  "Tejon  Parlor;"  schottische, 
"Baker  Parlor;"  two  step,  "Grizzly  Bear;"  waltz, 
"Eschscholtzia;  "  lancers,  "Pioneers;"  two  step, 
"The  Drillers;"  barn  dance,  "Chanticleer;"  waltz. 
"San  Francisco,  1915;"  two  step,  "Golden  West;" 
waltz,  "Our  Grand  President;"  two  step,  "Mission 
Bells;"  waltz,  "Mariposa;"  two  step  "^osemite.  " 

The  committees  responsible  for  the  success  of  the 
affair  were  made  up  as  follows:  Arrangements — 
Misses  Annie  Foran.  Dena  Pesante,  Marcelle  Moritz. 
Mrs.  Pearl  Knapp.  Reception — Mesdames  Eliza 
Baker,  Josie  Nighbert,  Etta  Borgwardt.  Frances  Wil- 
low, Louise  Herod,  Miss  Theo.  McClasky.  Decora- 
tions— Mesdames  Hilda  Gnndlaeh,  Lillian  Carter,

WHAT    THE    FIREMAN'S    FUND    INSURANCE 
CO.,  OF  CALIFORNIA,  HAS  ACCOM- 
PLISHED SINCE  1906. 

Innumerable  business  men  throughout  the  United 
States  have  marveled  at  the  remarkably  clever 
financiering  accomplished  by  the  Fireman 's  Fund 
Insurance  Co.  in  successfully  paying  in  one  year  the 
enormous  fire  loss  of  $11,000,000,  which  the  Com- 
panv  sustained  in  the  great  fire  at  San  Francisco 
in   April,   1906. 

The  assets  of  the  Company  on  January  1,  1906, 
were  $7,232,552,  which,  wTith  heavy  contributions 
by  the  stockholders,  enabled  this  great  achieve- 
ment to  be  consummated,  and  it  closed  the  year 
1907  with  assets  amounting  to  $5,938,099,  and  a  net 
surplus  of  $806,922  over  capital  and  all  liabilities. 

It  is  not  surprising,  therefore,  that  the  fame  of 
this  reliable  institution  has  spread  far  beyond  the 
confines  of  its  own  country  and  that  its  marine  pol- 
icies are  gladly  accepted  in  those  foreign  ports  in 
which  it  transacts  business. 

Reasonable  profits,  extending  over  many  years, 
will  be  needed  to  reimburse  the  stockholders  for 
the  funds  disbursed  to  meet  t he  emergency  of  1906; 
and  it  is  pleasing  to  learn  that  the  Company  made 
fair  profits  in  1909  in  both  its  underwriting  and  in- 
vestment branches,  three-fourths  of  which  profits 
were  added  to  surplus.  With  a  capital  of  $1,500,000, 
and  a  net  surplus  of  $2,014,857,  the  Company  had. 
on  January  1,  1910,  prime  resources  aggregating 
$7,431,402.  The  liabilities,  exclusive  of  capital, 
amounted  to  $3,916,545,  thus  leaving  a  policyhold- 
ers' surplus  of  $3,514.s."7. 

Since  its  organization,  the  Fireman's  Fund  has 
received  $70,393,327  in  premiums  and  paid  $42,027.- 
470  for  losses,  while  dividend  disbursements  have 
amounted  to  $4,191,000.  The  Company 's  stock, 
worth  less  than  nothing  in  May,  1906,  now  has  a 
book  value  of  $234.32  per  $100  of  par  value. 

Careful  selection  of  risks,  and  a  high  degree  of 
popularity,  are  manifested  by  a  loss  ratio  last  year 
of  less  than  forty-seven  .per  cent,  with  a  normal 
expense    ratio. 

Such  a  showing  is  most  gratifying  to  both  agent 
and  policyholder  alike,  who  may  rely  upon  upright 
treatment    from    such    a    concern,    under    any 
of    circumstances.

DRINK  HABIT 

The  Gatlin  Treatment  Cures  Liquor  Drinking  in  THREE  DAYS  Under 
Contract — No  Hypodermic  Injections  or  Other  Disagreeable  Features 

The   Gatlin    Institute   was   established   eleven    years    ago.      More    than    eleven    thousand    men    and 
women    have   been   cured   of   liquor   drinking   by    the  Gatlin  treatment — there  has  been  failure  to  cure 


in  no  case. 


No  hypodermic  injections;  no  bad  after  effects,  no  poisonous  drugs,  no  substitutive  stimulants — 
a   treatment    so    harmless   that    any    child    could    take  it. 

Bach  patient  is  accepted  for  treatment  under  legal  contract  to  cure  in  THREE  DAYS — the 
cure  to  be  entirely  satisfactory  in  every  particular  or  the  fee  paid  is  refunded  when  the  patient 
is  leaving  the  institute  and  treatment  costs  nothing.

Industrial   Success 


(Continued    from    Page    4,    Column    3.) 

To  the  ordinary  citizen,  the  extremely  low  de- 
pression that  affects  manufacturing  in  California 
is  not  as  evident  or  as  important  as  it  is  to  the 
manufacturers  and  producers  of  the  State;  but  to 
the  men  who  employ,  the  men  who  are  employed, 
the  result  is  so  disastrous  that  we  can  only  look 
to  the  citizens  of  this  State  to  assist  us  in  finding 
effective  remedies.  To  them  do  we  make  this  ap- 
peal, and  to  them  do  we  look  for  the  future  of 
California's  manufacturing  prosperity.  The  serious- 
ness of  it  all  is  heartbreaking,  when  we  realize 
that  the  people  we  are  dependent  upon  are  the  very 
ones  that  are  sending  East  for  their  commodities. 
To  the  average  citizen  who  has  no  business  interest, 
the  advantages  of  our  great  manufacturing  sites 
are  obviously  the  best  to  be  had.  To  be  sure,  we 
have  natural  advantages — we  have  spur  tracks  and 
tide  water  facilities;  we  have  excellent  climatic 
conditions  for  working;  we  have  electric  power  and 
oil  for  fuel  that  are  necessary  for  manufacturing 
development — but  as  to  the  co-operation  of  the  citi- 
zens that  we  are  looking  to  for  aid  in  our  indus- 
tries, we  are  woefully  and  deplorably  lacking. 

We  have  flowers,  fruits  and  sunshine — we  have 
all  the  great  resources  of  an  empire — but  do  you 
think  that  we  use  them  to  our  advantage?  Do  we 
not  content  ourselves  too  often  with  being  satis- 
fied that  these  God-given  advantages  are  sufficient? 
Do  we  make  sufficient  effort  to  make  use  of  these 
great  privileges?  No,  we  certainly  do  not.  The 
truth  is,  that  the  great  bulk  of  our  raw  material 
is  sent  East,  packed,  and  returned  to  us  for  con- 
sumption. Then  we  wonder  why  California  is  lack- 
ing in  her  manufacturing.  "We  wonder  why  the 
Eastern  manufacturers  have  such  a  grip  upon  our 
industrial  life. 

Why  we  are  suffering;  what  the  loss  means  to 
this  State  and  to  ourselves,  is  only  half  told,  but 
we  do  appeal  to  every  retailer  of  the  State  to  buy 
California-made  products — for,  after  all,  the  success 
of  the  individual,  the  success  of  the  retailer,  the 
jobber,  the  manuiacturer  and  producer,  is  dependent 
upon  what  the  Native  Sons,  Native  Daughters  and 
others  buy  from  them.  In  other  words,  if  every 
purchaser,  man,  woman  or  child,  in  California  would 
ask  for  California  products,  and  insist  upon  the 
California  products,  the  dealer  would  be  forced  to 
carry  them. 


Early-day  Incidents 

in  Tuolumne  County 

(Continued   from   Page    11,    Column   2.) 
a  table,  washed  the  clots  of  blood  from  his  body, 
and    Dr.    Cassady,    from    Philadelphia,    dressed    his 
wounds,  but  he  lived  only  a  few  hours. 

Before  he  passed  away,  however,  he  told  us  that 
the  night  was  very  dark  while  hunting  for  his 
animal,  and  by  the  side  of  a  bunch  of  chaparral  he 
saw  an  object  which  he  supposed  was  his  animal. 
As  he  reached  out  to  put  a  rope  around  his  neck, 
for  the  purpose  of. leading  him  to  camp,  a  grizzly 
bear  struck  him  with  his  paws  on  the  head,  and 
he  was  left  in  the  condition  in  which  we  found 
him. 

Mrs.  William  Patch  was  .the  first  white  woman 
that  entered  Jacksonville  in  1849.  She  and  her 
husband  William,  on  their  arrival,  opened  a  board- 
ing tent.  One  rainy  day  the  miners  played  freeze- 
out  poker   for  mince  pies.     During   the   day,   Mrs. 


Patch  made  and  baked  in  a  stone  oven  thirty-two 
pies,  for  which  she  received  thirty-two  dollars  in 
gold  dust  (coin  being  very  scarce  at  that  time). 
This  William  Patch  was  a  brother  to  Samuel  Patch, 
the  great  jumper,  who  lost  his  life  by  jumping 
from  the  top  of  Genesee  Falls  at  Rochester,  N.  Y. 

In  the  autumn  of  1851,  James  M.  Slocum  and 
myself  left  Jacksonville  and  went  to  Garote  (now 
called  Groveland).  This  was  a  new  mining  camp 
in  Tuolumne  County,  about  ten  miles  from  Jackson- 
ville, and  near  Big  Oak  Flat.  The,  first  night  we 
stopped  in  that  camp  we  occupied  a  deserted  log 
cabin.  It  was  located  in  a  pine  grove  on  the  side 
of  a  mountain,  about  a  quarter  of  a  mile  from 
camp.  There  being  no  door  to  the  castle,  and 
grizzlies  being  numerous  at  that  time,  Mr.  Slocum 
made  a  temporary  door  out  of  a  barrel  and  a  few 
shakes  he  found  lying  on  the  ground.  While  lying 
in  bed,  I  told  him  that  the  door  was  of  no  use 
against  animals,  and  that  the  only  protection  we 
would  have  would  be  our  revolvers.  Should  a 
grizzly  enter,  there  was  no  possible  way  to  escape, 
as  we  could  not  break  through  the  large  pine  logs, 
nor  make  an  opening  in  the  roof. 

It  was  a  beautiful  night,  the  full  moon  and  stars 
shining  in  all  their  brilliancy.  Nothing  was  heard 
except  the  occasional  fluttering  of  leaves,  and  the 
gentle  breeze  singing  through  the  branches  of  the 
lofty  pines,  and  we  finally  dropped,  to  sleep.  It 
must  have  been  in  the  short  hours  of  morning 
when  I  was  suddenly  awakened  by  the  crash  of 
the  flimsy  door.  Mr.  Slocum  did  not  awake.  As 
soon  as  my  slumber  was  disturbed  1  looked  toward 
the  doorway  and  saw  a  figure.  I  sung  out  three 
times:  "Who  comes  there!  M  There  being  no  answer, 
my  gun  was  discharged  at  the  object.  This  awoke 
my  partner,  and  he  said  he  thought  he  was  shot. 
He  lighted  a  candle,  went  to  the  door,  and  there 
found  a  knife  about  ten  inches  in  length,  bright 
and  keen  as  a  razor.  Whoever  the  party  was, 
whether  Mexican,  Indian,  or  white  man,  he  took 
leg  ban,  and  escaped. 


GRANITE  PARLOR  ADOPTS 

RESOLUTIONS  IN  MEMORY  DEPARTED. 

At  a  recent  meeting  of  Granite  Parlor,  No.  83, 
N.S.G.W.,  the  following  resolutions  were  adopted 
in  memory  of  John  M.  Hoey,  who  died  suddenly 
near  Klammath  Falls,  Oregon,  and  who  was  in  the 
employ  of  the  S.  P.  Company.  Deceased  was  born 
in  Shasta  County,  in  1866. 

Whereas,  The  Creator,  in  His  infinite  wisdom,  has 
removed  from  our  midst  our  honored  and  respected 
Bro.,  John  M.  Hoey,  to  the  Eternal  Parlor  on  High; 
and 

Whereas,  With  the  death  of  Bro.  John  M.  Hoey, 
Granite  Parlor,  No.  83,  and  the  Order  of  N.  S.  G. 
W.,  have  lost  a  conscientious  and  loyal  member, 
and  his  family  a  kind  and  loving  brother;  there- 
fore, be  it 

Resolved,  That  our  charter  be  draped  in  mourn- 
ing for  the  period  of  thirty  days,  in  memory  of 
our    departed    brother ;    and    be    it    further 

Resolved,    That   a   copy   of    these   resolutions   be 
spread   upon    our   minutes,    a    copy   transmitted    to 
the   bereaved   family,   and   that   they   be   published 
in  the   Grizzly  Bear  and  the  Folsom  Telegraph.

STATE  REVENUES  FROM  FORESTS— 

WHAT  CONSERVATION  ACCOMPLISHES. 

For  the  fiscal  year  ended  June  30th,  last,  the 
United  States  Department  of  Agriculture  announces, 
the  25  per  cent  of  National  Forest  revenue  which 
will  go  to  the  several  States  for  road  and  school 
purposes  amounted  to  $506,194.84 — $67,492.03  more 
than  last  year,  or  an  increase  of  a  little  over  15 
per  cent.  The  payments  are  an  offset  to  the  loss  of 
income  from  taxable  property  through  withdrawal 
of  the  forest  land  from  entry  under  the  public  land 
laws. 

Of  the  total  amount,  $60,752.91  has  been  appor- 
tioned to  California,  an  increase  .  of  over  25  per 
cent  compared  with  last  year. 

The  increases  are  the  result  of  increased  activity 
in  National  Forest  timber  sales,  and  are  an  earnest 
of  what  will  happen  as  the  timber  supply  which  the 
Government  is  caring  for  comes  into  full  demand. 
Since  the  cut  of  timber  will  always  be  limited  to 
what  forests  will  keep  on  growing,  the  income  to 
the  States  will  be  permanent,  not  transitory,  as 
would  have  been  the  case  if  hasty  and  improvident 
exploitation  had  been  permitted.  According  to  the 
calculations  of  the  Department  of  Agriculture 
officials,  the  States  will  eventually  receive  many 
times  what  the  xorests  are  now  yielding  them,  for 
there  is  as  yet  on  the  whole  only  a  very  restricted 
demand  for  the   Government 's  timber.

Yes.  dearly  beloved  Tourist,  this  is  the  simon- 
pure,  unadultered,  made-in-California  winter.  Like 
every  other  California  product,  it's  the  best  on 
earth. 

A  man  named  Byers  is  seeking,  so  press  dis- 
patches state,  to  represent  Iowa  in  the  National 
Senate.  If  we  are  to  believe  all  we  have  heard 
about  Senators  purchasing  their  seats  in  the  Na- 
tional Congress,  the  lowan 's  name  would  indicate 
that  he  is  on  the  road  to  success. 
*         *         * 

One  of  the  best  New  Year  resolutions  is  that  of 
the  Santa  Fe  railroad,  to  prohibit  the  use  of 
cigarettes  by  its  employees  after  January  1,  1911. 
We  trust  this  is  one  resolution  that  will  stand  the 
test  of  time,  for  it  is  of  inestimable  benefit  to  the 
employees  themselves. 

At  a  recent  congress  of  eastern  medical  men,  a 
physician  read  a  paper  in  which  he  stated  that 
graft  was  a  disease,  resultant  from  graft-bug  infec- 
tion. 

Our  medical  friends  are  so  accustomed  to  the  use 
of  the  knife  that  they  might  now  begin  to  cut 
out  graft. 

The  first  political  news  of  the  1914  campaign  has 
been  sent  out :  The  county  assessors,  in  conven- 
tion assembled,  have  resolved  that  the  tax  rate 
should  be  reduced.  Resoluting's  all  right,  brothers, 
but  what  the  patiently  suffering  taxpayer  wants  is 
action.  If  we  read  the  signs  of  the  times  aright, 
actions  will  speak  considerably  louder  than  resolu- 
tions in  politics  in  this  State  hereafter. 

All  honor  to  the  Pasadena  society  women  who 
refused  to  attend  a  swell  function  in  that  city,  and 
dance   with   visiting  Japanese  naval  officers! 

May  their  commendable  action  be  not  only  ap- 
plauded by  all  men,  but,  as  well,  their  example  fol- 
lowed  by   all   women. 

These  women  proved  by  their  action  that  good 
American  blood  courses  through  their  veins.  Now 
let  their  brothers  show  their  Americanism  by  deal- 
ing with  the  party  who  insulted  these  women,  by 
offering  the  invitations,  in  a  manner  commensurate 
with  the  enormit}*  of  the  offense. 

Quite  a  little  storm  has  arisen  in  Stockton  be- 
cause a  school  principal  suspended  a  girl  student 
who  appeared  in  the  classes  near-clothed  in  a  dress 
having  short  sleeves  and  low  neck,  and  her  hair 
bedecked  with  false  curls. 

The  principal  is  to  be  commended,  but  what 
about  the  short-brain  parents  of  the  miss?  They 
are  the  ones  responsible  for  the  girl's  school  dress, 
and   they  are  the  ones  that   should   be   disciplined. 

The  only  way  to  cure  an  evil  is  to  get  at  its  root. 
The  root  of  the  school-dress  evil  is  with  the  parents, 
not  the  girls.

driven  by  a  man  named  Abel  Wing, 
was  prue ceding  leisurely  along  the 
banks  of  the  Humboldt  River.  Wing 
was  a  man  of  stalwart  frame  and 
about  six  feet  four  inches  tall.  In 
the  wagon  with  him  were  his  two 
little  boys,  aged  six  and  eight,  his 
wife  and  an  eighteen- months  -old 
baby.  Wing  and  his  wife  had  crossed  the  plains 
without  any  companions;  they  had  pursued  their 
journey  leisurely,  and  the  mule  team  was  in  excel 
lent  condition.  Mrs.  Wing  was  a  short,  well-built, 
compact  little  woman,  aged  about  thirty-five  years. 
She  and  her  husband  were  congratulating  them- 
selves upon  finishing  their  journey,  whose  end  now 
seemed  very  near,  and  were  eagerly  anticipating  a 
harvest  of  riches  in  the  far-off  and  then  wilderness- 
like    Golden    State    of    California. 

Suddenly  Mrs.  Wing  caught  her  husband's  arm 
and  pointed  to  some  moving  objects  about  a  quar- 
ter of  a  mile  to  the  right  of  the  road,  moving  iu 
a  direction  parallel  with  the  direction  in  which  the 
Wing  family  were  traveling.  It  took  but  one 
glance  for  Wing's  practiced  eye  to  ascertain  that 
the  objects  composed  a  band  of  about  thirty 
Indians,  who  were  endeavoring  to  get  ahead  of 
him  and  thus  cut  him  off  from  his  direction.  With- 
out evincing  any  alarm.  Wing  started  up  his  team 
into  a  brisk  trot,  while  the  Indians,  increasing 
their  speed,  gradually  began  to  draw  down  to  the 
road.  Seeing  that  the  Indians  were  no  longer  dis- 
guising their  intentions,  Wing  lashed  his  team  into 
a  gallop,  and  then  commenced  one  of  the  most  ex- 
citing races  for  life  that  Indian  border  warfare  had 
ever   witnessed. 

The  heavy  canvas  cover  upon  the  wagon,  bulg- 
ing out  like  a  balloon,  greatly  impeded  the  pro- 
gress of  the  fugitives.  With  remarkable  presence 
of  mind.  Mrs.  Wing  drew  her  husband's  sheath 
knife  from  his  belt  and  cut  the  lashings  which 
held  the  cover  to  the  wagon  bows.  In  an  instant 
the  cover  lifted  in  the  air,  floated  for  a  moment, 
and  dropped  back  in  the  dust.  The  game  little 
mule  team,  released  from  the  strain  of  the  cover, 
dashed  forward  with  increased  speed.  By  this 
time  the  pursuing  Inuians  had  drawn  down  to  the 
road,  but  in  doing  so  had  so  lost  ground  that  they 
were  now  several  hundred  yards  in  the  rear.  Still 
they  kept  up  the  chase,  determined  if  possible  to 
overtake  their  victims.  It  was  the  work  of  an 
instant  for  Mrs.  Wing  to  throw  out  of  the  wagon 
a  ten-gallon  keg  of  water;  next  went  the  family 
bedding  and  a  trunk;  then  the  deck-boards  of  the 
wagon;  and  finally,  with  superhuman  strength,  Mrs. 
Wing  succeeded  in  throwing  out  of  the  wagon  a 
chest  of  dishes,  a  provision  chest,  some  sides  of 
bacon,  and  two  one-hundred-pound  sacks  of  flour. 
Notwithstanding  the  lightening  of  the  team's 
load,  and  although  Wing  lashed  them  with  energy, 
the  stubby  little  mules  would  not  increase  their 
speed.  The  wagon  was  now  nearly  empty,  con- 
taining nothing  but  an  ax,  a  double'-barrele'd  shot- 
gun and  the  flying  fugitives.  Slowly  the  long- 
winded  and  fleet-footed  Piutes  were  gaining  ground 
upon  their  intended  victims.  Whenever  they  would 
come  upon  a  rise  of  ground,  they  would  let  fly  a 
shower  of  arrows  at  the  fleeing  familj',  but  being 
shot  from  a  great  distance,  they  either  fell  short 
or  went  wide  of  their  mark,  and  sometimes  passed 
over  the  heads  of  the  human  targets.  When  within 
about  two  hundred  yards,  the  Indians,  from  a  little 
ripe  of  ground,  let  fly  a  volley  of  arrows,  and  one 
of  them,  passing  over  Wing's  head,  struck  the  off 
lead  mule  in  the  fleshy  part  of  the  rump,  inflicting 
a  painful  but  not  serious  wound.  With  a  snort  of 
pain,  the  wounded  animal  sprang  into  a  run,  and 
the  rest  of  the  team,  seeming  to  catch  the  spirit  of 
fright,  was  soon  racing  along  the  road  at  such  a 
pace  that  no  human  being  on  foot  could  keep  up 
with   them. 

Mrs.  Wing  glanced  back  and  said  to  her  hus- 
band: "Thank  God,  we  are  safe!  The  Indians 
are  falling  behind." 

Wing  did  not  try  to  check  the  speed  of  his  team.

For  two  miles  the  fugitives  continued  their  flight, 
hoping  against  hope  that  they  would  overtake  some 
emigrants  in  La  rge  enough  force  to  protect  them. 
But  it  was  not  to  be.  Y'ears  before,  a  man,  in 
hewing  out  a  mad  through  the  timber,  had  cut 
down  a  small  tree  about  six  inches  in  diameter 
which  stood  on  the  edge  of  the  roadway,  and  had 
carelessly  left  a  little  stump  about  eight  inches 
high.  As  Wing's  team  plunged  down  into  a  little 
gulley  through  which  the  road  passed,  the  hind  axle 
of  the  wagon  caught  upon  the  stump,  and  in  an 
instant  the  wagon  was  torn  into  fragments,  and 
the  maddened  mules,-  with  the  tongue  and  fore- 
wheels  of  the  wagon,  dashed  on  out  of  sight.  All 
of  the  occupants  of  the  wagon  were  thrown  vio- 
lentlv  to  the  ground,  and  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Wing  lay 
stunned  for  a  moment,  though  the  little  boys  and 
the   infant   in   Mrs.   Wing's  arms   were  unhurt. 

Just  as  Wing  regained  consciousness  and  was  ris- 
ing from  the  ground,  thirty  yelling  Piutes  came 
pouring  over  the  embankment,  scarcely  a  hundred 
feet  away.  Wing  caught  up  from  the  ground  his 
double-barrel  shotgun,  and  being  at  close  range, 
literally  tore  the  heads  off  of  two  of  the  savages, 
and  although  filled  with  arrows,  the  stalwart  man 
rushed  into  the  midst  of  the  yelling  demons  and 
beat  out  the  brains  of  two  more  with  the  butt  of 
his  gun;  then,  with  some  fifty  arrows  in  his  body, 
he    fell    forward   among   his   murderers. 

Mrs.  Wing  had  just  risen  from  the  gorund  as  the 
Indians  burst  into  view.  She  had  her  eighteen- 
monthsold  baby  clasped  in  her  right  arm,  when 
an  arrow  struck  the  back  of  her  hand,  passed 
through  the  infant's  heart  and  lodged  in  her  right 
breast  Fortunately  the  arrow  had  no  barb  upon 
it,  having  only  a  hard-wood  point.  Another  arrow 
passed  through  her  left  shoulder,  coming  out  through 
the  shoulder-blade  at  her  back.  A  third  arrow 
struck  her  in  the  right  side,  but  glancing  upon  the 
ribs,  passed  out  wit  In  nit  inflicting  a  mortal  wound. 
Mrs.  Wing  fell  to  the  ground  in  a  semi-conscious 
condition,  unable  to  rise.  The  two  little  boys  were 
instantly  caught  and  murdered  by  the  savages. 

The  Indians,  after  stripping  the  clothing  from 
Wing's  body,  came  up  to  where  Mrs.  Wing  lay, 
and  one  of  them,  identifying  the  arrows  as  his 
turned  them  around  in  the  wounded  woman's  desh. 
but  she  made  no  outcry  nor  gave  any  sign  that  she 
was  alive.  Mrs.  Wing  had  a  head  of  hair  which 
was  over  a  yard  long.  An  Indian  looked  at  her  for 
a  moment,  stooped  down,  made  an  incision  around 
her  head  with  a  sheath  knife,  placed  his  foot  upon 
her  face,  thus  covering  her  mouth,  wrapped  her  hair 
around  his  hand,  and  pulled  the  skin  from  the 
top  of  her  head.  Then  the  Indians,  going  back  upon 
the  road,  gathered  all  the  plunder  that  had  been 
thrown  out  by  the  Wings,  and  quickly  sought  a 
hiding  place  in  the  wilderness,  for  they  well  Knew 
that  avengers,  in  the  form  of  backwoodsmen, 
trained  in  Indian  craft,  would  be  upon  their  track. 

Mrs.  Wing  lay  in  a  semi-conscious  condition  until 
about  sundown,  when  she  succeeded  in  gaining 
strength  enough  to  rise.  Seeing  that  all  her  family 
were  dead  and  stiff  upon  the  ground,  she  went  to 
a  brook  near  by,  washed  her  wounds,  tied  her  apron 
over  her  head  and,  more  dead  than  alive,  started 
on — sometimes  staggering,  sometimes  crawling  on 
her  hands  and  knees,  often  falling  exhausted.  She 
traveled  all  night,  and  at  daylight,  discovering  a 
cold  spring  of  water  hidden  in  a  thicket,  secreted 
herself  and,  in  a  serai-conscious  condition,  waited 
the  return  of  nightfall.  About  sundown,  having 
again  dressed  her  wound  and  eaten  a  few  berries 
that  grew  about  the  spring,  she  again  took  the  road 
and  toiled  on  wearily  all  night,  making  another 
five   miles. 

About  daylight,  just  as  she  was  thinking  of  hid- 
ing herself  again,  she  discovered  an  encampment 
of  white  men.     The  party  proved  to  be  a  company

The  Home  Industry  League 

What  It  Has  Done  and  Is  Doing 

(BY  COLONEL  GEO.  H.  PIFPY,  CHAIRMAN     AFFILIATED    LEAGUES    COMMITTEE 
OF  THE  HOME  INDUSTRY  LEAGUE.) 


HAT  GREATER  CONSTRUCTIVE 
building  is  there  among  the  com- 
mercial or  civic  bodies  in  the  State 
of  California  than  the  stupendous 
task  of  the  Home  Industry  League 
has  taken  up  in  its  successful 
efforts  to  induce  Californians  to  buy 
California  products?  What  more 
commendable  endeavor  is  there  in 
the  great  State  of  California,,  that 
flourishes  and  abounus  in  the  pro- 
ductiveness of  its  soil,  than  the  edu- 
cational campaign  of  the  League  to  establish  the 
State  as  a  manufacturing  community,  as  well  as 
an  empire  of  natural  resources? 

And  yet,  strange  as  it  may  seem,  with  the  mag- 
nificent results  attained  by  the  League  in  the 
short  space  of  five  months'  existence,  there  are 
many  people  in  the  State  who  do  not  know,  or 
realize  to  the  full  extent,  or  appreciate,  the  wis- 
dom manifested  in  its  economical  principle  and  the 
teaching  of  the  same  to  the  people  to  bring  the 
results  that  California  needs  for  its  industrial  suc- 
cess. Nor  do  they  recognize  the  multifarious  de- 
tail that  is  necessary  before  the  development  of 
the  State's  manufacturing  interests  are  fairly  be- 
gun, or  their  own  co-operative  buying  interest  that 
will  bring  prosperity  into  the  -State. 

However  that  may  be,  the  burden  of  work  ac- 
cepted by  the  various  officers  and  committees  of 
the  League,  and  their  unselfish  devotion  to  the 
cause,  is  particularly  commendable  in  the  atten- 
tion they  must  also  give  to  their  own  private  busi- 
ness enterprises,  and  if  similiarly  carried  out  by 
the  individual  consumer  and  buyer  without  the  re- 
striction of  application  to  business,  would  result  in 
greater  prosperity  for  the  State,  the  several  coun- 
ties, and  the  individual. 

The  pioneers  of  this  movement,  seeing  the  abso- 
lute necessity  for  the  betterment  of  home  indus- 
try, began  their  diversified  efforts  after  a  study  for 
improvement  in  manufacturing  conditions.  In 
June,  1910,  when  they  held  their  first  meeting,  com- 
posed of  the  best  element  among  the  manufactur- 
ing and  producing  industries  in  the  State  of  Cali- 
fornia, the  personnel  of  the  League,  representing 
the  different  industries,  made  up  a  strong  campaign 
for  the  furtherance  and  continuance  of  home  in- 
dustry that  had  been  attempted  before  by  various 
commercial  and  civic  bodies  without  real  tangible 
results,  and  elected  a  directorate  of  eighteen  mem- 
bers, twelve  of  whom  must  be  manufacturers.  They 
began  with  an  impetuous  that  has  carried  them  on 
successfully  up  to  this  time.  Those  directors  are: 
Frederick  C.  Parker,  president,  manager  Pacific 
Coast  Biscuit  Co.;  Frederick  J.  Koster,  first  vice- 
president,  president  California  Barrel  Co.;  A.  C. 
Rulofson,  second  vice-president,  president  A.  C. 
Rulofson  Co.;  Louis  Saroni,  treasurer,  sugar  broker; 
J.  M.  Patrick,  secretary,  president  Patrick  Co.;  D. 
J.  Alberga,  manager  Alberga  &  Newcomb;  Edward 
L.  Baldwin,  manufacturing  druggist;  A.  C.  Bolde- 
man,  president  Boldeman  Chocolate  Co.;  R.  J.  Davis, 
vice-president  Van  Emon  Elevator  Co. ;  Zoeth  S. 
Eldredge,  capitalist;  J.  O.  Gantner,  president  Gant- 
ner  &  Mat  tern;  Captain  I.  N.  Hibberd,  superin- 
tendent Barneson  &  Hibberd;  J.  A.  Hierouimus, 
Union  Brewing  and  Malting  Co.;  J.  W.  Hoyt,  presi- 
dent White  Star  Laundry;  P.  I.  Jacoby,  president 
Standard  Biscuit  Co.;  Win.  Mooser,  architect;  Geo. 
H.  Pippy,  attorney-at-law;  R.  E.  Queen,  president 
California  Fig  Syrup  Co.;  B.  B.  Rosenthal,  dele- 
gate Labor  Council;  C.  J.  Wetmore,  president  Wet- 
mort-Bowen  Co.;  W.  B.  Webster,  manager  W,  W. 
Montague  &  Co.;  B.  J.  Williams,  president  Stan- 
dard Soap  Co.;  Eugene  Clancy,  delegate  Building 
Trades  Council. 

The  committees,  as  represented  by  these  various 
directors  as  chairmen,  began  with:  Executive  Com- 
mittee— R.  J.  Davis  (chairman),  R,  E.  Queen,  Fred- 
erick J.  Koster,  Louis  Saroni,  A.  C.  Rulofson.  Ways 
and  Means — W.  B.  Webster  (chairman),  Ritchie  L. 
Dunn,  I.  N.  Hibberd,  J.  W.  Hoyt,  Byron  Mauzy. 
Publicity  and  Advertising — R.  E.  Queen  (chair- 
man), D.  H.  Robert,  Chas.  De  Young,  C.  W.  Horn- 
iek,  D.  A.  Ryan.  Grievance  Committee — A.  C. 
Rulofson  (chairman).  J.  C.  Kortick,  C.  H.  Workman, 
Wm.  Mooser,  D.  J.  Alberga.  Affiliated  Leagues— 
Geo.  H.  Pippy  (chairman),  D.  J.  Alberga,  W.  B.  Dut- 
ton.  Membership — Louis  Saroni  (chairman),  R.  L. 
Dunn,   D.   J.    Alberga. 

Special    Committees:      Trade   Mark — J.   W.   Hoyt 


(chairman),  Paul  Rieger,  D.  J.  Alberga,  C.  H.  Work- 
man, Edw.  L.  Baldwin,  T.  M.  Earl,  A.  Patrick. 
Associate  Membership — J.  A.  Hieronimus  (chair- 
man). D.  J.  Alberga,  H.  W.  Kerrigan.  Salesman- 
ship— E.   J.   D.   Price    (chairman). 

A  new  committee  appointed  for  the  "Made  in 
California  Week,"  to  be  held  the  latter  part  of 
February,  is  as  follows:  D.  J.  Alberga  (chairman), 
R.  L.  Dunn,  J.  C.  Kortick,  C.  H.  Workman,  W.  H. 
Laurence,  W.  H.  Hyman,  Oscar  Boldeman,  P.  G. 
Betts,  A.  Patrick,  S.  L.  Samter,  Chester  Meyers,  H. 
E.  Holmes,  Salter  Degen,  Aug.  Lang,  Dr.  C.  V. 
Cross,  F.  B.  Connolly.  This  committee  is  made  up 
under  several  different  sub-heads  for  the  suecess  of 
this  "week,"  when  nothing  but  made-in-California 
goods  will  be  displayed  in  every  shop  window  in 
the  city  of  San  Francisco. 

The  duties  of  the  various  committees  above  men- 
tioned, the  names  of  which  specify  their  particu- 
lar line  of  work,  have  been  varied  and  numerous, 
naturally  as  a  result  of  the  League's  constructive 
work  for  the  last  five  months.  But  the  results  ob- 
tained have  been  so  satisfactory,  and  the  progress 
maae  so  healthy,  that  the  future  of  the  League 
presages  wonderful  possibilities — the  field  being  so 


COLONEL     GEORGE     H.     PIPPY. 


broad  and  vast  that  it  is  attracting  the  interest  of 
the  entire  State. 

As  the  League  has  but  one  object,  that  is,  the 
fostering,  protecting  and  up-building  of  the  manu- 
facturing and  producing  industries  of  the  State  of 
California,  it  therefore  naturally  follows  that 
extraneous  influences  will  not  subdivide  the  work 
that  is  pointed  out  to  do.  The  League  recognizes 
no  locality,  class,  corporation,  trust,  combination,  or 
individual;  it  works  for  the  benefit  of  all  alike. 
Its  object  is  one  that  every  citizen  of-  the  State 
can  indorse,  and  one  that  every  patriotic  citizen  of 
the  State  of  California  should  be  in  sympathy  with. 
It  is  not  only  designed  to  revive  the  waning  in- 
dustries of  the  State,  but  to  endeavor  to  create 
others  which  may  be  profitably  established  in  this 
State,   with   its   vast   natural   resources. 

It  has  often  been  asked:  "How  can  an  associ- 
ation revive  the  manufacturing  industries  of  the 
State,  considering  the  great  depletion  of  same,  as 
people  will  always  buy  in  the  cheapest  market?" 
This  is  true,  and  therein  lies  one  of  the  chief  duties 
of  the  Home  Industry  League.  It  is  endeavoring 
to  overcome  the  difficulties  existing,  which  in  many 
instances  place  the  producer  and  manufacturer  of 
this  State  on  equal  terms  with  the  Eastern  and  for- 
eign competition,  and  by  overcoming  that,  it  en- 
ables him  to  become  "the  cheapest  market."  "An 
important  item,"  it  finds,  "will  certainly  be  recog- 
nized in  that  of  quantity.  An  increased  output  in 
most  instances  represents  a  decreased  cost.  The 
smaller  demands  on  the  Coast,  it  finds,  as  compared 
with   Eastern   States,   place  the   manufacturer   here 


at  a  disadvantage  in  the  matter  of  cost  of  pro- 
duction. " 

The  League's  efforts  must  be  to  overcome  this,  as 
far  as  possible,  and  each  resident  consumer  is  being 
taught  to  understand  and  know  the  advantage  to 
nis  neighbor  as  well  as  to  himself  in  patronizing 
home  industry,  and  that  each  individual  demand 
for  an  article  made  within  the  State  brings  the 
manufacturer  one  step  nearer  to  that  point  where, 
by  increased  output,  he  is  able  to  defy  foreign 
competition.  Many  cases  can  be  cited  where  Cali- 
fornia manufacturers,  in  order  to  dispose  of  their 
products,  are  obliged  to  use  Eastern  labels.  A  re- 
moval of  this  prejudice,  the  League  points  out, 
would  in  itself  be  a  great  accomplishment.  ''There 
exists  in  the  State  today,"  it  maintains,  "an  un- 
just prejudice  against  California-made  goods,  a  feel- 
ing that  is  encouraged  and  fostered  by  the  retail- 
ers of  Eastern  products,  and  yet  this  very  retailer 
is  dependent  upon  local  patronage,  which  patronage 
would  find  increase  in  employment  of  additional 
labor." 

It  must  be  apparent  to  the  consumer  of  the  State 
that  the  only  logical  end  for  the  self-support  and 
utilization  of  our  own  resources  depends  upon  the 
buying  of  California-made  products — that  is  why 
the  League  is  endeavoring  to  create  a  greater  de- 
mand for  California  products.  It  is  decreasing  the 
cost  of  same  by  increasing  the  output;  thereby  nat- 
urally employing  more  labor  and  increasing  the  pur- 
chasing population  of  the  State  that  is  created  by 
the  employing  of  more  labor.  This  logically  re- 
sults in  the  circulation  of  more  money.  By  edu- 
cating people  to  buy  California-made  goods,  it  is 
eliminating  that  inveterate  prejudice  against  home 
products.  It  further  protects,  preserves,  develops, 
and  advocates  the  boosting,  buying  and  selling  of 
our  representative  home  industries.  It  is  co-operat- 
ing in  a  concerted  movement  with  commercial, 
civic,  and  improvement  bodies,  corporations  and  in- 
dividuals, by  holding  contracts  here,  and  placing 
the  producer  and  manufacturer  of  this  State  in  a 
position  to  successfully  compete  with  the  world. 
In  hundreds  of  ways,  the  League  is  lecturing  on 
home  industry,  co-operating  with  retailers  and  job- 
bers, advertising,  exploiting  home  industries  indi- 
vidually through  its  members  and  collectively.  It 
is  issuing  a  series  of  pamphlets  devoted  to  the  vari- 
ous lines  of  industry  throughout  the  State,  trying 
•  tn  educate  our  people  and  proving,  through  quality 
and  price,  our  ability  to  compete  with  the  Eastern 
and  foreign  markets. 

In  its  multitudinous  efforts  for  the  good  of  the 
manufacturer  and  producer  of  the  State,  it  is  carry- 
ing on,  without  friction  or  opposition,  its  manifold 
task  by  not  touching  upon  the  various  objects,  of 
other  organizations.  It  is  not  steeped  in  freight 
rates,  the  improvement  of  streets,  the  regulation  of 
the  budget,  or  particularizing  on  shipping  interests, 
but  working  on  in  its  logical  way  for  the  one  ob- 
ject: the  up-building  of  the  manufacturing  and  pro- 
ducing industries — by  greater  publicity  and  the  ad- 
vocating of  buying  California  products.  The  League 
is  doing,  and  has  done,  more  in  its  five  months'  ex- 
istence than  any  other  like  body  in  the  entire  West. 
It  is  organizing  new  bodies  throughout  the  entire 
State.  It  is  creating  a  greater  demand  for  Califor- 
nia-made products,  and  affiliating  with  bodies  al- 
ready existing  to  work  for  the  same  object.  It  is 
issuing  a  general  directory  devoted  to  our  members 
— their  productions,  locations  of  factories,  offices, 
and  other  information  of  benefit  to  the  jobber,  re- 
tailer and  ultimate  consumer.  The  work  has  pro- 
gressed with  greater  strides  as  each  day  passes,  until 
now  the  membership  has  reached  555  strong. 

The  League  has  done,  is  doing,  and  can  do,  more 
for  the  betterment  of  manufacturing,  producing  and 
general  business  conditions  of  this  State  than  any 
other  body.  But  to  successfully  counteract  the 
many  endeavors  of  Eastern  representatives  and  se- 
cure the  greater  bulk  of  the  manufacturing  busi- 
ness, it  must  have  the  proper  co-operation  of  the 
people  of  the  State.  On  June  17.  1910.  when  the 
Home  Industry  League  adopted  the  name  that  iden- 
tifies it  as  the  most  progressive  organization  in  the 
State,  it  promised  great  results  for  its  members, 
and  has  consistently  carried  out  its  plan  of  cam- 
paign. It  has,  through  its  exhibits  and  demonstra- 
tions in  San  Francisco  and  Oakland,  doubled  the 
sales  and  increased  the  output  of  many  lines  of  in- 
dustries. It  has  increased  the  accounts  of  many 
factories  to  such  an  extent  that  the  capacity  of 
many  plants  has  had  to  be  enlarged  to  meet  the 
growing   demand. 

It  has  been  proven  that,  where  many  other  or- 
ganizations in  the  past  have  taken  up  home  indus- 
try for  an  ephemeral  period,  this  latter  movement  of 
the  Home  Industry  League  is  a  logical  one,  for  the 
various  reasons  that  it  has  consistently  and  ju- 
diciously followed  out  regarding  equal  price  and 
quality  basis  of  competition.  It  has  manifested  con- 
clusively that  California-made  goods  equal,  and  in 
most  cases  surpass,  the  products  that  are  being 
shipped  in  here  daily  for  our  consumption  and  use.

— '(County  created  since  1900  census.) 

To    one    interested    in    California    conditions,    the 

1910   census   returns   hold    much    food   for   thought. 

In  1900,  the  county  of  San  Francisco  was  more  than 

twice   as  large   as   that   of   Los   Angeles;    now   Los 

Angeles  Conunty  leads  San  Francisco  in  population 

by  87,219.     The  State's  largest  counties  today  are, 

in    order:      Los    Angeles,    San    Francisco,    Alameda, 

Santa   Clara.   Fresno,   Sacramento,    San   Diego,    San 

Bernardino  and  San  Joaquin. 

A  comparison  of  an  equal  number  of  the  largest 

county  populations,  north  and  south  of  Tehachapi 

shows  that,  while  nearly  every  section  in  California 

has  made  gains,  the  counties  in  what  we  term  South- 
ern  t.ahforma  are   away   in   the   lead.     Here's   the 

Government's  figures:

Thus  it  wil  be  seen  that,  while  in  1900  the  eight 
largest  Northern  California  Counties  had  403,174 
more  population  than  the  Southern  California  Coun- 
ties, the  present  census  shows  the  same  northern 
counties  but  280,575  in  the  lead  of  the  same  southern 
counties.  But  what  is  more  astonishing,  while  these 
same  northern  counties  gained  324,496  in  popula- 
tion the  past  decade,  the  same  southern  counties 
increased  447,099. 

One  of  the  saddest  bits  of  information  gleaned 
from  the  new  census  comes  from  a  population  com- 
parison in  the  counties  that  did  so  much,  during  the 
early-day  mining  fever,  to  make  California  world 
famous.  The  counties  of  Amador,  Calaveras,  El 
Dorado,  Nevada,  Trinity  and  Tuolumne  show  a  de- 
crease in  population.  In  early  days  these  were  the 
mecca  for  the  gold-seekers,  but  for  the  last  twenty 
years  residents  have  been  gradually  forsaking  the 
mine  for  other  pursuits,  and  the  newcomers  have 
not  been  sufficiently  many  to  offset  the  out-goers. 
Many  of  these  counties  have  lately  come  to  the 
front  as  abounding  in  rich  agricultural  lands,  and 
the  next  census  will  undoubtedly  show  a  popula- 
tion even  greater  than  in  1900. 

Stanislaus  County's  population  increased  12,:i7l', 
due  largely  to  the  establishment  of  irrigation  sys- 
tems and  the  consequent  subdivision  of  large 
acreages.  On  the  other  hand,  Kern  County's  popu- 
lation increased  21,235,  due  almost  entirely  to  the 
opening  up  of  the  numerous  oil  wells.  Thus  it  is 
apparent  that  mining — for  oil  wells  are  mines — and 
agriculture  are  both  doing  their  share  toward  in- 
creasing  the    population    of   California. 

The  largest  gain  in  population  was  made  by  Los 
Angeles  County — 333,833.  The  smallest  gain  is 
noted  in  Del  Norte  County — 9.  The  smallest  county 
in  the  State,  in  population,  is  Alpine,  with  309  resi- 
dents— 200  less  than  the  1900  census  gave  it. 

There  is  not  an  agricultural  or  fruit-raising  county 
in  the  State  whose  population  has  not  shown  a  sub- 
stantial increase  in  the  past  ten  years.  On  the 
other  hand,  nearly  every  county  whose  chief  re- 
source is  mining  shows  a  decrease,  and  where  there 
is  any  increase  at  all,  it  is  very  small.  Another 
notable  fact  is  that  in  those  counties  where  large 
acreages  have  been  subdivided,  the  population  has 
increased  materially,  while  in  those  where  large 
land  holdings  still  exist  the  increase  has  been  very 
slight. 

From  a  political  viewpoint,  the  census  figures  are 
likewise  interesting.  The  State's  increased  popula- 
tion will  give  us  two,  and  possibly  four,  more  repre- 
sentatives iu  the  National  Congress,  and  the  several 
congressional  district  boundaries  will  have  to  be 
changed.  Representation  in  the  State  Legislature 
will  be  from  forty  senatorial  and  eighty  assembly 
districts,  as  usual,  but  the  boundaries  of  these  dis- 
tricts, fixed  by  population,  will  be  considerably 
changed. 

The  State  Constitution  says  that,  "For  the  pur- 
pose of  choosing  members  of  the  legislature,  the 
State  shall  be  divided  into  forty  senatorial  and 
eighty  assembly  districts,  as  nearly  equal  in  popu- 
lation as  may  be,  and  composed  of  contiguous  terri- 
tory. *  In  the  formation  of  such  districts 
no  county,  or  city  and  county,  shall  be  divided,  un- 
less it  contains  sufficient  population  within  itself 
to  form  two  or  more  districts,  nor  shall  any  part 
of  any  county,  or  of  any  city  and  county,  be  united 
with  any  other  county,  or  city  and  county,  in 
forming  any  district."  The  State's  population  being 
2,377,549,  the  basis  for  senatorial  representation 
will  be  59,438  of  population,  and  for  assembly  repre- 
sentation, 29,719  of  population. 

San  Francisco,  therefore,  which  heretofore  had 
the  largest  legislative  delegation — eighteen  assem- 
blymen and  nine  senators — will  have  her  delega- 
tion cut  down  to  fourteen  assemblymen  and  seven 
senators,  while  Los  Angeles,  which  has  had  nine 
assemblymen  and  five  senators  in  the  Legislature, 


will  iimi  hi  i  the  largest  delegation — seventeen 
assemblymen  and  eight  senators.  Alameda  and  San 
Bernardino  Counties  will  each  gam  one  assembly- 
man, while  Sacramento  County  will  lose  one. 

There  an-  onlj  ten  counties  in  the  State — Los 
Angeles,  San  Francisco,  Alameda,  Santa  Clara, 
Fresno,  Sacramento,  San  Diego,  San  Bernardino, 
San  Joaquin  ami  Sonoma  whien  have  a  sufficient 
population  i.i  entitle  them  to  individual  repr. 
tion  in  the  Legislature,  and  their  total  representa- 
tion will  amount  to  tin;,  live  assemblymen  and 
twenty-seven  senators.  This  will  leave  twenty-five 
assembly  and  thirteen  senatorial  districts  to  be 
dueled  between  the  remaining  forty-eight  coun- 
ties, and  the  Legislature  now  about  to  assemble 
will  be  given  this 


The  Population  of  the  United  States. 
The  total  number  of  people  enumerated  through- 
out the  states,  territories,  District  of  Columbia, 
Alaska,  Hawaii  and  Porto  Kico,  in  the  census  which 
began  April  15,  1910,  is  officially  announced  as 
93,402,151,  an  increase  of  16,145,521  in  the  past  ten 
years.  California  is  the  twelfth  largest  state  in 
the  Union  in  population. 


AWFUL  FATE  OF  WING  FAMILY 

(Continued  from  Page  1,   Column  3) 

of  engineers  and  their  assistants,  who  were  engaged 
in  locating  a  new  wagon  road.  They  were  provided 
with  an  ambulance  and  a  provision  wagon,  and 
each  man  was  well  armed  and  had  a  saddle  mule  or 
riding  pony.  As  soon  as  Mrs.  Wing  had  told  her 
story,  the  ambulance  was  made  ready,  she  was 
placed  therein,  and  under  an  escort  of  several  men, 
was  taken  rapidly  forward  about  ten  miles,  to 
where  a  large  emigrant  train   was  camped. 

The  surveyors'  party  was  composed  of  frontiers- 
men who  were  accustomed  in  their  wild  frontier 
life  to  seeing  many  gruesome  sight.  On  seeing  Mrs. 
\Ving"s  condition,  some  shed  tears,  while  others 
cursed  in  low  tones;  and  when  Mrs.  Wing  had  left 
the  camp  a  set  look  settled  upon  all  their  faces, 
and  their  eyes  took  on  that  glassy  look  which  boded 
little  good  for  any  Piute  Indian  whom  they  might 
meet  in  the  future.  The  chief  engineer  immedi- 
ately gave  orders  to  cache  the  instruments  and  extra 
camp  equipage,  saddle  their  animals,  and  take  the 
trail.  In  two  hours  the  party  was  on  its  mission 
of  vengeance. 

For  two  days  and  one  night  they  pressed  on,  fol- 
lowing the  Indians'  trail,  led  by  a  keen-scented 
trailing  dog  which  they  happened  to  have  with 
them.  Near  sundown  of  the  second  day,  from  a 
little  eminence  of  ground,  the  head  engineer,  by 
aid  of  an  old-fashioned  telescope,  discovered  the 
Indians  encamped  in  a  small  valley,  in  the  center 
of  which  was  a  little  grove  of  cotton-woods  which 
grew  around  a  spring  of  water.  At  daylight  the 
next  morning  the  Indian  camp  had  been  surrounded, 
and  an  attack  was  made,  under  the  orders  to  take  no 
prisoners. 

We  pass  over  the  bloody  details  of  the  attack. 
Suffice  to  say  that,  owing  to  the  open  nature  of 
the  ground  and  the  whites  being  able  to  use  their 
saddle  animals,  not  one  of  the  Indians  escaped. 
Only  one  of  the  surveying  party  was  wounded,  and 
he  only  slightly  with  an  arrow.  When  the  sur- 
veying party  returned  to  their  camp,  they  brought 
back  with  them  twenty-six  bloody  scalp-locks  as 
evidences  of  the  thoroughness  of  their  retributive 
vengeance. 

Mrs.  Wing  was  kindly  cared  for  by  the  party  of 
emigrants  into  whose  hands  she  had  fallen,  and 
brought  into  the  mining  regions  of  Plumas  County, 
where  the  rough  miners  vied  with  one  another  in 
generous  contributions  to  alleviate  her  distress  and 
to  provide  funds  to  send  her  to  her  relatives  in  the 
Eastern  states. 


TURN  OF   THE  YEAR. 

When   Summer   blessed   the   Earth, 

A   thousand  joys   had   birth; 

Long  days  and  short,  sweet  nights, 

Blossom    and    fruit    delight  bj 

And  walks  amid  the  maze 

Of    vine-grown    woodland    ways; — 

And  then  we  prayed:    "Dear  Summer,  stay, 
Nor  leave  us  grieving  by  the  way." 

Winter   now   rules   the   Earth. 
And  Nature  's  sounds  of  mirth 
Are    hushed,   and    stark   and   dead 
Her   treasures    'round   are    spread; 
Short  days  and  wind-blown  nights, 
Chill  fields  and  barren  heights; — 

But,  kindly   housed   and  warmly  clad, 
Winter  has  charms  to  make  us  glad.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


January 


Important  Happenings  in  California  Fifty  Years  Ago 


(COMPILED    FOE    THE    GRIZZLY   BEAR   BY   THOMAS   R.   JONES.) 


S  WITH  CHRISTMAS  DAY,  NEW 
Year's  Day,  1861,  was  ushered  in 
with  a  cold,  blustering  storm  which 
commenced  on  New  Year's  Eve  and 
continued  for  nearly  a  week,  Mt. 
Diablo  was  given  a  covering  of 
white,  and  the  Sierra  Nevadas,  from 
the  foothills  to  the  summits,  had  a 
snowfall  varying  from  a  few  inches 
to  eight  feet  in  depth.  The  day  was 
celebrated  in  the  usual  manner.  The 
bibulous  resorts  advertised  toothsome 
spreads  with  the  usual  adjuncts,  and  many  ac- 
cepted the  invitations  thus  extended  to  make  merry. 

The  week  following  tliere  was  a  heavy  storm  in 
the  southern  part  of  the  State.  The  Los  Angeles 
River  overflowed  its  banks  and  there  was  con- 
siderable loss  of  property,  while  several  people 
were  drowned.  Snow  on  Scott  Mountain,  in  the 
north,  was  fifteen  feet  deep.  Sleighs  were  used 
during  the  month  for  the  transportation  of  mails, 
passengers  and  merchandise  to  Washoe,  via  the 
Placerville  route.  The  inhabitants  of  La  Porte  and 
other  mountain  towns  were  enjoying  coasting  and 
snow  shoeing.  After  the  15th,  the  weather  became 
very  cold,  and  in  the  valleys  the  exposed  surfaces 
were  white  with  frost  every  morning  during  the 
rest  of  the  month. 

The  census  returns  for  1860  were  published  this 
month.  California's  population  was  counted  as 
being  375,947.  A  howl  of  indignation  went  up 
from  every  section,  the  claim  being  made  that  the 
count  was  incorrect  and  incomplete.  If  these 
claims  were  correct,  the  population  of  California 
must  have  been  a  couple  hundred  thousand  more 
than  the  census  showed.  A  new  apportionment  and 
re-districting  of  the  State  in  senatorial  and  assem- 
bly districts  was  a  problem  the  Legislatures  was 
expected  to  handle,  and  with  the  uncertainty  of 
future  political  conditions  it  was  a  proposition  of 
much  speculation. 

There  were  116  vinegrowers  in  Los  Angeles 
County  who  had  under  cultivation  1,811,000  vines, 
and  had  produced  in  1S60  a  total  of  345,000  gallons 
of  wine. 

An  apiarist  named  Hamilton,  near  Stockton,  had 
obtained  from  thirty-five  hives  13,000  pounds  of 
honey,   or  an  average  of  57   pounds  to   a   hive. 

The  paper  mill  on  San  Lorenzo  Creek,  near 
Santa  Cruz,  was  in  full  operation,  employing  twenty 
hands  and  making  one  and  one-half  tons  of  paper 
a  day.  The  product  was  wrapping  paper  for  the 
San  Francisco  market. 

A  farmer  named  Megowan  had  harvested  a  large 
yield  of  peanuts  from  five  acres  of  bottom  land 
on  the  Sacramento  River,  and  the  price  and  quality 
were  so  good  the  planting  of  a  large  increase  of 
acreage   was  intended   during  the   coming  year. 

A  fishing  company  was  plying  the  waters  near 
Catalina  Island  with  the"  schooner  General  Harney 
and  catching  with  seines  an  average  per  day  of 
120  barrels  of  mackerel  worth  $8  a  barrel. 

A  whaling  station  was  established  on  Dead  Man's 
Island,  near  San  Pedro.  Two  whales  had  been 
harpooned  and  captured,  yielding  about  forty-five 
barrels  of  oil  each. 

A  railroad  meeting  at  Placerville,  January  19th, 
was  largely  attended  and  the  citizens  subscribed 
for  195  shares  of  stock,  at  $100  a  share,  to  build 
a  railroad  from  Folsom  to  Placerville. 

Some  of  the  steamers  on  the  Sacramento  River, 
plying  between  San  Francisco  and  Sacramento,  be- 
gan  burning   Mt.   Diablo   coal. 

A  band  of  wild  horses,  570  in  number,  were 
brought  from  Lower  California  to  San  Francisco 
and  were  being  sold   at  auction. 

A  new  steam  fire  engine  called  the  "  Pennsyl- 
vania" was  received  in  San  Francisco  from  Phila- 
delphia and  was  described  as  being  almost  perfec- 
tion in  its  appearance  and  work. 

The    Legislature    Fifty   Years   Ago. 

The  Legislature,  then  holding  annual  sessions, 
met  in  Sacramento  on  Monday,  January  7th,  and 
proceeded  to  organize.  The  Senate  was  composed 
of  thirty-five  members,  of  whom  the  Republicans 
had  elected  five,  the  Douglas  party  nineteen,  and 
the  Breckenridge  party  eleven.  With  the  Douglas 
party  in  the  majority,  the  Senate  had  little  diffi- 
culty in  selecting  its  officers  and  organizing  for 
the  transaction  of  business.  Senator  Pablo  De  La 
Guerra  was  elected  president,  Richard  Irwin  presi- 
dent pro  tem,  and  C.  W.  Tozer,  secretary.  The 
Assembly  was  not  in  such  a  fortunate  position. 
It  was  composed  of  nineteen  Republicans,  thirty- 
eight  Douglas. Democrats,  twenty- two  Breckenridge 
.democrats  and   one  Bell   or  Union   party   member. 


There  not  being  a  majority  of  either  party,  and 
some  changes  politically  taking  place  since  the  elec- 
tion, the  Assembly  began  a  contest  for  speaker 
which  lasteu  eleven  days  and  was  only  settled 
when  a  combination  was  effected.  The  Douglas 
members  presented  John  Conness  for  speaker  and 
J.  M.  Anderson  for  chief  clerk;  the  Republican 
Caucus  favored  F.  Fargo  for  speaker  and  J.  M. 
Taylor  for  chief  clerk,  while  the  Breckenridge  wing 
favored  Zack  Montgomery  for  speaker.  One  hun 
dred  and  nine  ballots  were  taken,  and  the  deadlock 
continued  utnil  January  17th,  when  a  combination 
was  made  and  the  following  were  elected  to  fill  their 
respective  offices:  R.  Burnell  of  Amador,  speaker; 
J.  M.  Anderson,  chief  clerk,  and  Michael  Gray, 
sergeant-at  arms.  The  Senators  had  two  California- 
borns  among  their  number;  eighteen  were  born  in 
northern  and  fifteen  in  southern  states.  The  oldest 
Senator  was  60  and  the  youngest  23  years  of  age. 
Of  the  Assemblymen,  forty  were  natives  of  northern 
states  and  twenty-nine  of  southern,  five  came  from 
Ireland,  oue  from  Scotland,  one  from  France,  two 
from  Germany,  one  from  the  West  Indies,  and  one 
from  Nova  Scotia.  The  oldest  member  was  65  and 
the  youngest  23  years  of  age. 

The  long  contest  of  the  Assembly  in  organizing 
had  a  disastrous  effect  upon  the  aspirants  for  cleri- 
cal positions.  There  were  but  three  committees  in 
each  body  allowed  clerks,  and  for  these  few  posi- 
tions there  were  more  than  one  hundred  applicants. 
In  the  Senate  were  the  following  who  became  promi- 
nent in  the  affairs  of  the  State:  T.  G.  Phelps,  Sol. 
A.  Sharp,  Henry  Edgerton,  John  A.  Eagon,  Pablo 
De  La  Guerra,  Andreas  Pico,  A.  L.  Rhodes,  Richard 
Irwin,  Jas.  M.  McShafter,  E.  H.  Heaeock,  W.  H. 
Parks  and  Chas.  E.  DeLong.  In  the  Assembly  were 
John  Conness,  R.  Burnett,  N.  Greene  Curtis,  Charles 
Crocker,  Alexander  Campbell,  and  Zack  Mont- 
gomery. 

Secession  Causes  Much  Debate. 

Politics  was  assuming  a  condition  of  intense  inter- 
est. Congress  was  in  session  and  acrimonous  debates 
upon  the  secession  question  were  of  daily  occurrence. 
The  President  of  the  United  States  had  proclaimed 
the  4th  of  January  as  a  day  of  prayer  to  save  the 
Union.  One  of  California 's  Congressmen,  J.  C. 
Busch,  had  declared  in  favor  of  a  Pacific  Republic, 
iu  case  the  Union  was  dissolved  and  the  other  Con- 
gressman, G.  L.  Scott,  had  declared  his  intention  of 
following  Alabama  out  of  the  Union  when  it  went. 
Senator  Gwin  was  known  to  be  in  sympathy  with 
the  south,  while  Senator  Latham  after  having  first 
advocated  a  Pacific  Republic,  changed  his  opinion 
and  was  believed  to  be  on  the  Union  side  of  the 
fence.  The  exti*eme  tension  made  itself  felt  in  the 
California  Legislature,  and  its  effect  on  polities  was 
great  and  far  reaching. 

Governor  Downey  in  his  annual  message  to  the 
Legislature  espoused  the  Union  cause,  aud  strong 
resolutions  in  favor  of  maintaining  the  Union  were 
introduced  by  Senators  De  Loug  and  Jidgerton  and 
debated  on  January  16th,  followed  by  others  in  both 
the  Senate  and  Assembly  expressing  the  opinions  of 
their  authors  upon  the  burning  question. 

Resolutions  were  made  a  special  order  for  January 
31st,  when  Senator  Edgerton  opened  the  discussion 
with  an  eloquent  speech  of  over  two  hour's  dura- 
tion in  which  ne  favored  the  preservation  of  the 
Union.  He  was  replied  to  by  Senator  Watson  of 
banta  Cruz  County,  who  favored  ' '  state  rights, ' ' 
and  the  linguistic  battle  was  on. 

Little  else  than  politics  received  attention  at  this 
stage  of  the  session.  The  threatening  aspeet  of 
secession  furnished  the  sole  topic  of  discussion  in 
every  circle  and  new  political  lines  began  to  be 
drawn.  The  Union  Democrats  and  the  Republicans 
came  closer  and  closer  together,  while  the  "state 
rights"  supporters  began  to  flock  together,  and  a 
stormy  time  was  brewing. 

On  January  16th,  a  Pacific  Republic  flag 
was  hoisted  on  a  surveying  vessel  at  Stock- 
ton. At  first  it  was  viewed  with  amusement,  but 
this  gave  way  to  a  feeling  of  violent  resentment, 
and  soon  the  city  of  Stockton  had  "Old  Glory" 
floating  from  every  flagstaff  in  the  place,  to  show 
the  people's  true  feeling.  In  the  theaters  the  sing- 
ing of  "The  Flag  of  Our  Union"  and  other  pat- 
riotic songs  was  receiving  popular  applause,  and  the 
Union  sentiment  grew  warmer  and  warmer  as  the 
days  passed  on.  Union  cockades,  consisting  of  red, 
white  and  blue  feathers,  fastened  with  an  eagle  pin, 
made  their  appearance  and  were  sold  in  great  num- 
bers. 

The  income  of  the  State  during  1S60  was  $1,508,- 
698.95,  and  expenditures  $1,422,042.21. 


The  Insane  Asylum  at  Stockton,  in  its  annual  re- 
port, showed  417  inmates,  332  being  males  and  85 
females. 

Successful   ^.old   Seekers. 

Chris  Oatman,  mining  on  Gopher  Hill,  Nevada 
County,  struck  gravel  that  was  paying  $150  a  day 
and  had  euough  gravel  -in  sight  to  make  him  a 
fortune. 

Tulloch  and  Stacy,  working  a  claim  near  Volcano, 
took    out    $1800    in    six    days. 

Cephas  Wood  and  his  son,  mining  near  Lewiston, 
Trinity  County,  -ound  a  six-pound  chunk  of  gold 
and  took  our  $1400  in  one  day. 

A  four-pound  nugget  was  found  at  Rough  and 
Ready,   on   January   19th. 

Bancroft  and  Turner,  near  Hornitos,  found  six 
pieces  of  gold  in  their  claim  that  together  weighed 
over   sixteen   pounds. 

The  Cedar  Spring  tunnel  mine,  one  mile  east  of 
Placerville,  struck  gravel  that  paid  as  high  as  $11 
to  the  pan,  and  took  out  $720  in  125  small  cars  of 
dirt. 

The  Eureka  aud  Badger  mines  at  Sutter  Creek, 
owned  by  Alvinza  Hayward,  were  now  in  their  best 
producing  condition.  Seventy  tons  of  ore  a  day 
were  being  mined  and  milled,  and  the  yield  was 
many  thousand  of  dollars  a  month.  One  hundred 
and  sixty  men  were  employed  at  high  wages  and 
Sutter  Creek,  on  a  pay  day,  was  one  of  the  liveliest 
towns  in  the  State. 

A  Catholic  church  was  being  built  by  the  miners 
of  Sutter   Creek. 

Esmeralda  District,  in  Nevada,  was  attracting 
more  attention  from  ^ortune-hunters  than  Washoe. 
Ore  assaying  $4000  to  the  ton  had  been  struck,  and 
claims  were  selling  on  the  lode  for  $25  a  foot.  A 
large  number  of  prospectors  were  going  into  the 
district,  and  exaggerated  stories  of  rich  strikes  were 
being  told. 

The  Eureka  Company,  at  North  San  Juan, 
cleaned  up  forty-four  pounds  of  gold,  worth  $9900, 
from   a   twelve-days'   run. 

G.  Atzel  a  miner  on  a  prospecting  trip  in  Old 
Woman's  Gulch,  Calaveras  County,  found  an  old 
tunnel  which  he  entered  and  ventured  into  for  a 
distance  of  150  feet,  when  he  fell  into  a  shaft  thirty- 
five  feet  deep,  breaking  some  of  his  ribs  and  bruis- 
ing his  body.  A  large  skunk  that  had  also  fallen 
into  the  shaft  was  at  the  bottom  and  immediately 
attacked  him  with  the  ferocity  of  a  starving  ani- 
mal, biting  him  in  numerous  places  and  giving  him 
no  chance  to  rest.  He  was  in  the  shaft  two  days, 
when  a  couple  of  miners,  passing  by,  heard  his  cries 
for  help  and  rescued  him. 

An   Early-day   Lottery   Scheme. 

G,  G.  Briggs,  a  prominent  horticulturist  living 
near  Marysville,  promoted  a  "gift  entertainment" 
which  came  off  at  Marysville  on  the  night  of 
January  15th.  His  orchard  of  over  300  acres  and 
valued  at  $120,000  was  the  first  prize,  and  another 
orchard  at  Oroville,  valued  at  $90,000  was  the 
second  prize.  There  were  124  other  prizes,  valued  at 
$215,000,  with  107,800  tickets  at  $2  each.  His  ad- 
vertisement was  rather  unique  and  read  as  follows: 
"Those  who  have  $2  they  can  afford  to  lose  (let  no 
one  buy  who  cannot  afford  to  lose  the  money  they 
spend  for  there  are  many  chances  of  losing),  will 
find  it  better  to  spend  it  for  a  ticket  which  may 
bring  them  a  fortune  than  to  spend  it  for  liquor 
and  cigars  which  are  ruining  the  human  race. " 
Mr.  Briggs  evidently  was  a  strict  temperance  man, 
but  had  no  fault  to  find  with  gambling.  The  thea- 
ter was  crowded  with  expectant  ticket-holders  and 
a  committee  of  nine  prominent  citizens  was  selected 
by  the  audience  to  conduct  the  drawing.  A  huge 
tin  drum  was  produced,  into  which  the  numbered 
cubes  were  placed,  and  a  little  six-year-old  girl 
named  Frances  Lattin  was  selected  to  draw  the 
lucky  numbers,  one  at  a  time,  from  the  drum  and 
place  them  upon  a  salver,  after  which  they  were 
called  out  by  one  of  the  committee.  No.  9080  won 
the  first  prize.  It  was  reported  that  the  two  princi- 
pal prizes  were  won,  respectively,  by  a  bill  poster 
in  San  Francisco  and  a  young  lady  not  out  of  her 
teens   living   in   Nevada   City. 

The  "Lady  Adams  Company,"  a  mercantile  con- 
cern having  stores  in  San  Francisco  and  Sacra- 
mento, failed  for  many  thousands  of  dollars.  The 
Sacramento  partners  of  the  company  believed  that 
they  were  solvent,  and  were  unaware,  until  attach- 
ments were  placed  upon  their  property,  that  the 
San  Franciseo  partner  had  involved  the  company 
hopelessly  in  debt.  The  partner  responsible  for

<>nt    with   3am    Kineard   .-it    the   head   of   this 
graph,  and  got  sidetracked. 

Now,  I  will  say  what  I  started  out  to,  about 
Sam.  If  yon  want  to  find  "lit  what  kind  of  stuff 
a  man  is  made  of,  just  take  a  trip  similar  to  that 
Of  crossing  the  plains  in  1S49.  ami  you  will,  at  the 
end  of  the  trip,  know  all  his  goodness,  his  mean 
ness,  and  his  idiosyncrasies.  These  three  qualities 
cover  about  all  there  is  in  the  human  composition, 
and,  as  they  are  cultivated,  shape  the  actions  and 
establish  the  character  of  the  individual  through 
life.  Sam  was  generous,  kind  and  courteous,  and 
always  ready  to  give  a  helping  hand  in  an  emer- 
gency.     He  was  liked  by  all   in   the  train. 

T  was  now  without  a  partner,  and  telling  Sam 
of  my  plans  for  the  future,  suggested  I  would  like 
to  have  him  go  with  me  for  the  approaching 
season.  T  had  left  in  the  cabin  a  month 's  gruh 
and  a  good  outfit  of  mining  tools,  and  with  the 
horse  Oneille  had  ridden  down  and  left  at  Yuba 
City  ami  the  mule  T  had  purchased,  we  would  be 
enabled  to  go  higher  up  in  the  mountains  as  soon 
as  the  weather  settled,  and  pass  a  month  or  two 
prospecting  in  a  region  where  many  rich  strikes 
had  been  made  during  the  season  past.  "I'll  go." 
said  Ram.  "and  glad  to  have  the  chance.  I'm 
tired  of  staying  here,  doing  nothing.  When  will 
you  leave!"  "Pay  after  tomorrow."  T  told  him. 
"fan  you  get  ready  in  that  time?  You  don't  want 
to  take  anv  more  than  a  change  of  clothes  and 
plenty  of  blankets.  Sometimes  we  have  cold. 
frosty  mornings  in  the  higher-up  mountains,  and 
it's   well   to  be  prepared." 

''Well.  I'll  wash  my  dirty  shirts  and  socks  and 
get  a  pair  of  heavy  boots,  and  as  for  blankets.  I 
have  plenty,  and  T  will  be  ready."  While  Sam 
was  prparing  1  went  over  to  Marysville  and  bought 
a  few  things  that  T  wanted,  such  as  reading  mat- 
ter, a  pair  of  gold  scales,  a  nest  of  sealed  weights, 
and  some  wearing  apparel.  Tn  early  times  we  were 
supplied  monthly  with  the  principal  newspapers  of 
the  states— Tribune  and  Herald  from  New  York, 
two  papers  from  Boston.  New  Orleans  Picayune, 
and  the  Louisville  Journal,  edited  by  Geo.  I>.  Pren- 
tiss, a  young  man  from  the  North,  whose  sarcasms 
and  biting  pen  nn  several  occasions  caused  him  to 
lie  called  to  the  field  of  honor,  according  to  the 
eode  then  in  use  in  the  South.  The  Missouri  Re- 
publican was  not  behind  in  circulation  here  in  early 
days  any  nf  those  T  have  mentioned.  Many  other 
papers  and  periodicals  came  by  each  monthly 
steamer,  as  well  as  letters  from  home.  Steamer 
day  had  become  a  period  in  our  isolated  existence — 
relieving  anxieties,  inspiring  renewed  energy  and 
hope,  that  the  day  would  soon  come  when  we  could 
take  that  same  steamer  and  return  to  embrace  the 
loved  ones  at  the  old  home. 

Early  in  the  morning  on  the  day  appointed,  Sam 
and  I  rode  out  of  Yuba  City — lie  on  Bosenante, 
using  his  blankets  for  a  saddle",  and  I  on  my  dapple 
gray  mule — not  to  seek  out  and  rescue  imprisoned 
maidens,  but  to  seek  for,  and  rescue  from  its  \  ir 
gin  bed,  the  precious  metal  that's  inspiring  to  man- 
kind the  world  over.  I  intended  to  reach  my  cabin 
by  sunset,  if  possible,  but  if  not.  to  stop  over  nighl 
at  Bidwell's  Par.  We  reached  Bidwell's  liar  before 
Sunset,  or  at  least  before  it  began  to  get  dark.  It 
had  clouded  up  during  the  dav  and  the  weather 
looked  very  threatening.  T  told  Sam  that  we  would 
get  supper  here  and  have  our  animals  ted.  before 
climbing  the  hill,  over  which  the  trail  led  to  the 
eabin,  three  miles  distant.  Our  hunger  appeased 
and  animals  fed,  we  started  out.  Crossing  the  river 
in  a  ferryboat,  we  mounted  our  animals  and  rode 
to  the  steepest  part  of  the  trail,  when  we  dismount- 
ed and  walked,  leading  our  animals.  At  the  top 
the  threatening  clouds  began  to  give  down 
their  moisture,  and  I  told  Sam  to  mount,  as  it 
would  help  to  keep  his  blankets  from  getting  wet. 
I  got  into  the  saddle  on  my  mule,  rode  a  short  dis- 
tance, and  discovered  that  Sam  was  off  the  trail. 
I  dismounted,  began  a  search  for  the  trail,  and 
finally  found  it,  but  to  make  sure,  got  down  on  my 
hands  and  knees  and  crawled  alongfor  a  short  dis- 
tance.     It    was    so    dark    that    a    stone-blind    man

could  See  just  as  good  as  .me  with  t  lie  besl  of  eye 
sight.  I  did  not  ride,  but  walked,  and  led  dapple 
by  the  bridle  to   the  eabin. 

We  turned  the  animals  loose  after  taking  oil'  their 
Saddles  and  bridles,  that  they  might  feed  OH  the 
bunch  grass,  of  which  there  was  an  abundance  near 
the  cabin,  or  seek  shelter  from  l he  rain  under  some 

of  the  large  live-oaks  near  I  he  cabin.  Our  animals 
disposed  of,  1  pulled  the  secret  latch  string  and  the 
door  of  the  Cabin  swung  open.  Lighting  a  match 
to  dispel  some  of  the  impenetrable  darkness.  [  step- 
ped forward  tn  the  shelf  where  the  candles  were 
kept,  lit  one,  and  made  a  hurried  inspection. 
Everything  was  as  1  had  left  it.  and  in  a  few  min- 
utes a  fire  was  blazing  in  the  fireplace,  radiating  its 
glowing  warmth  and  light  throughout  our  com 
fortable  quarters.  As  we  sat  by  the  fire  we  could 
hear  the  raindrops  coming  heavier  and  faster  on 
the  shake  roof  over  us,  and  we  congratulated  our- 
selves on  our  timely  escape  from  their  discomforts. 
The  rain  kept  us  indoors  for  three  days,  but  I  did 
not  regret  that,  as  it  gave  time  to  read  up  the 
newspapers  which  1  had  bought,  as  well  as  some 
back  numbers  that  gave  proceedings  of  Congress 
as  far  back  as  the  admission  of  <  'alifornia  as  a 
State  into  the  Union.  In  addition  to  the  rain,  snow 
was  piling  up  in  the  mountains,  delaying  our  de- 
parture for  Rich  Bar.  How  long  we  would  have  to 
lay  idle,  depended  on  the  weather. 

While  waiting  for  the  roads  to  open,  we  went  to 
work  on  the  bar  below  the  cabin,  packing  the  dirt 
in  buckets  about  one  hundred  feet  to  the  river, 
where  the  rocker  was  placed  for  washing.  In  this 
way  we  worked  about  a  month,  making  from  five  to 
eight  dollars  per  day  each.  The  weather  was  get- 
ting hot,  the  pay  grew  less,  and  we  quit. 

We  could  now  get  through  to  Rich  Bar,  but  I  told 
Sam  I  wanted  to  do  some  prospecting  on  a  bar  about 
a  mile  below,  before  we  left  the  river.  After  a 
late  breakfast  I  started  with  pick,  pan  and  shovel, 
prospecting  some  and  examining  closely  the  river 
on  my  way  down.  I  knew  there  were  men  work- 
ing a  claim  on  the  upper  half  of  the  bar — and  had 
been  all  winter — packing  the  dirt  from  a  twelve-foot 
bank  in  buckets,  seventy-five  feet  to  the  river, 
where  it  was  washed  in  a  long  torn.  On  arriving  at 
the  torn  and  passing  the  time  of  day  writh  the  man 
attending  it,  I  inquired  if  there  was  anyone  work- 
ing below  their  claim  on  the  bar.  "No,"  he  re- 
plied, "they  have  all  quit;  we  are  the  only  ones 
working  on  the  bar  now.  They  said  they  had  work- 
ed up  to  where  the  pay  dirt  gave  out."  While  in 
conversation  with  the  man  I  could  not  avoid  seeing 
many  specks  of  gold  every  time  a  bucket  of  dirt 
was  washed,  and  made  the  remark  that  it  showed 
very  well.  "Yes.  we  make  very  good  wages,"  said 
the  .attendant.  "Clean  up  never  less  than  three 
ounces,  and  as  much  as  four  and  five  ounces,  for 
each  day's  work."  This  was  the  information  that 
I  most  desired,  and  was  obtained  voluntarily.  lie 
showed  me  the  lower  boundary  of  their  claim,  and 
told  me  that  beyond  that  all  the  bar  was  vacant 
or  abandoned. 

Before  parting,  I  learned  that  he  and  his  brother 
were  from  New  Albany,  Indiana,  and  their  names 
were  Cal  and  Lum  Elliot  (properly  Calvin  and 
Columbus'),  and  their  partner's  name  was  Garvey, 
from  Ohio,  all  '  lOers.  T  took  a  look  at  the  adjoin 
ing  ground  below  and  found  it  a  mass  of  rocks, 
large  and  small,  that  had  been  turned  over,  the 
smaller  ones  thrown  back,  and  the  bedrock  scraped 
except  for  about  thirty  feet  adjoining  the  Elliot 
limt  hers '  claim,  which  was  covered  with  gran  ite 
locks  thai  had  slid  down  from  the  mountain — most 
of  them  as  large  as  an  army  tent,  and  so  close  fco 
each  other  that  there  were  but  few  places  where 
the  pay  dirt  could  be  washed  without  the  use  ot 
powder.  On  taking  a  look  at  the  last  and  deepest 
stripping.  I  found  a  pit  about  four  feet  square  at 
tiie  bottom.  1  felt  an  inclination  to  find  out  why 
there  had  been  such  deep  stripping,  the  bank  on 
the  upper  side  being  about  eight  feet  perpendicular 
to  the  bedrock.  On  the  lower  side  (lie  dirt  had  been 
thrown  so  as  to  not  block  up  easy  ingress  or  egress 
to  the  pit. 

Getting  down  into  the  pit  with  ray  shovel,  I  soon 
had  the  bottom  cleared  of  the  loose  dirt  that  had 
dropped  in  from  the  sides.  At  the  back  end,  under 
the  deepest  part  of  the  bank,  I  saw  that  there  was

with  the  bedrock  pitching.  I  wen!  back  to  the  pit, 
and  with  tn;  pick  sounded  the  bank  overhead,  pulled 
out  some  loose  rocks  .  and  down  on  my  knees  started 
i"  coyote  under  the  bank,  overhead.   'The  dirt   I  was 

digging  in   was  :I  eombinati f  clayey   eartl

houBands  of  years  prior  to  the  tune  of  being 

i  i  i  red  by  the  debris  from  the  mountain  above.  In 
half  an  hour  I  had  COVOted  under  the  bank  nearly 
tw-o    feel,    and    to    a     width    and     heighl     of    four    and 

thie.-     (■■el,     respectively.        Stripping    off    Some    of    the 

top  gravel  and  putl  ing  it  aside  to  be  washed  by 
rocker  process,  i  began  panning.  Getting  twelve 
pans,   |   put   them   together  ami   placed   the  contents 

in  such  a  position  in  the  sun  as  (,,  allow  the  water 
to  drain  out  of  the  prospect  and  dry  the  gold.  Going 
back    to    the    pit.    1    Staked    Off   two    claims,    (he    uppei

't     Id    be    put     in    a     purse    that     I     usually    carried 

when   out   prospecting.     Putting  my  pick,  pan   and 

Shovel    in    the    pit    where    1    got    my    prospect — which 

gave  notice  to  :iii  whom  it  may  concern  that  this 
ground  was  claimed — I  hastened  back  to  the  cabin 
On  ray  way,  I  looked  at  the  sun  and  saw  it  was  all 
of  three  hours  past  meridian.  I  think  now  that  T 
must  have  been  excited.  I  had  been  in  California 
one  and  a  half  years  and  had  gotten  today  the 
-f  prospect  1  had  ever  found,  and  I  was 
anxious   to    show   it   to   Sam. 

As  T  stepped  in.  8am  wanted  to  know  what  kept 
me  so  long.  Drawing  the  purse  from  my  pocket. 
I  told  Sam  to  get  the  blower  and  the  gold  scale 
When  these  were  produced  I  emptied  the  contents 
of  the  purse  into  the  blower.  "Where  did  you  get 
that!"  asked  Sam.  "Is  there  any  more  where  it 
came  from?"  I  told  Sam  what  I  have  related  here, 
and  added  that  from  appearances  there  was  a  sum- 
mer's work  for  us  if  the  pay  should  be  as  good  as 
where  this  came  from.  The  gold  in  the  blower  was 
weighed  and  found  to  contain  twenty-five  dollars 
in  gold,  the  yield  of  twelve  pans  of  dirt.  The  next 
morning  Sam  was  up  earlier  than  usual,  and  had 
breakfast  ready  before  I  was  awake.  Breakfast 
over,  we  gathered  up  the  things  that  were  indis- 
pensable for  the  work  that  was  now  to  be  done.  A 
rocker,  bucket,  axe,  shovel,  pick  and  dipper  made 
about  as  much  as  we  cared  to  carry  at  one  trip. 
Arriving  at  the  bar  and  depositing  our  burdens 
near  the  river,  Sam  and  I  went  up  to  the  pit  where 
the  prospect  was  obtained.  We  filled  the  pan,  took 
it  to  the  river,  washed  it  and  had  the  same  result 
as  the  day  before.  The  rocker  was  then  set  up  and 
the  top  gravel  packed  to  the  rocker  and  washed, 
from  which  we  got  over  an  ounce.  This  was  still 
very  encouraging,  although  the  yield  was  not  so 
good,   compared   with    the    amount   of   dirt    panned. 

We  decided  to  sink  a  pit  that  would  uncover  the 
gravel  ten  or  twelve  feet  farther  back  from  the 
face  of  the  bank.  This  would  give  us  one  hundred 
or  more  square  feet  on  the  bedrock,  would  thor- 
oughly prospect  our  claims,  and  if  as  rich  as  cal- 
culated, would  give  us  very  good  wages.  It  took 
two  weeks  to  work  out  this  stripping,  from  which 
we  received  eighteen  ounces.  The  gravel  had  in- 
crease.1  in  thickness  to  two  feet  at  the  back  end  of 
the  pit,  the  top  toot  yielding  one  dollar  to  one 
and  a  half  dollars  to  each  ten  buckets,  while  the 
remaining  foot  on  the  bedrock  averaged  one  dollar 
to  each  bucket.  The  bank  at  the  back  end  of  the 
pit  was  now  twelve  feet  from  the  bedrock  to  the 
top.  It  was  now  very  plain  to  us  that  our  claims 
wen-  a  drifting  proposition,  a  thing  that  neither  of 
US  knew  anything  about.  I  told  Sam  I  knew  some 
miners  over  at  Stringtown  who  had  worked  in  the 
lead  mines  in  Wisconsin  and  Northern  Illinois,  and 
1  would  go  over  on  Sunday  to  see  if  any  of  them 
would  come  over  and  work  for  a  few  days  and  show 
us  how  to  timber  to  make  the  work  safe.  We  had 
done  enough  development  to  assure  us  a  summer 's 
work  here,  and  in  a  few  weeks  we  would  have  to 
move  out  of  the  cabin,  as  it  belonged  to  the  com- 
pany owning  the  river  claim,  and  they  were  liable 
at    any   time    to   come   to    prepare    for   work. 

We  got  moved  before  Sunday  and  had  things  in 
good  shape  in  our  new  quarters.  As  previously  de 
cided,  Sam  and  I  went  to  Stringtown  to  make  some 
purchases,  and.  if  possible,  hire  an  underground 
miner  to  assist  and  instruct  us  in  opening  our 
claim.  'We  ten  ml  several  who  had  worked  in  the 
lead  mines,  but  they  all  had  chums  they  were  work- 
ing and  could  not  leave  very  well.  I  had  made  it 
known  when  I  first  arrived  that  I  would  pay  six- 
teen dollars  per  day  for  an  experienced  underground 
miner,  but  like  all  miners  in  early  days,  not  one 
would  work  in  a  mine  for  wages  r* r  any  price.

EXCLUDE  JAPANESE  FROM  PUBLIC  SCHOOLS 

What  are  the  legislators,  who  will  soon  assemble 
in  Sacramento,  going  to  do  about  the  Japanese 
question,  insofar  as  it  affects  California's  public 
schools? 

At  the  session  two  years  ago  a  bill  was  intro- 
duced in  the  Legislature  prohibiting  the  attendance 
of  Japanese,  along  with  white  children,  in  our  pub- 
lic schools.  Through  the  interference  of  President 
Roosevelt,  the  measure  failed  of  passage.  The  press 
dispatches  inform  us  that,  while  Governor-elect 
Johnson  was  in  Washington  recently,  President  Taft 
called  his  attention  to  the  necessity  of  California 
keeping  its  hands  off  the  Japanese  question  en- 
tirely,  which    includes   the   public    school    question. 

We  do  not  know  what  opinion  Governor  Johnson 
holds  regarding  the  Japanese  question — or  rather, 
the  Japanese  evil  in  our  public  schools.  Neither 
do  we  know  to  what  extent  the  State  Government 
can  go  in  its  regulation  of  this  evil,  without  tres- 
passing upon  the  sacred  rights  and  privileges  of  the 
Federal  Government. 

But  this  we  do  know:  The  greatest  permitted 
evil  in  this  State  to-day  is  that  which  allows 
Japanese  MEN  to  attend  our  public  schools  in  com- 
pany with  white  GIRLS. 

It  is  easy  enough  for  men  in  Washington  to  say 
that  no  harm  can  come  from  such  association,  but 
we  who  live  in  California,  pay  the  cost  of  main- 
taining our  public  schools,  and  are  forced  to  permit 
Japanese  being  made  the  daily  associates  of  our 
daughters,  know  that  there  is  grave  danger  in  the 
continuance  of  this  evil. 

The  laws  of  California  prohibit  the  marriage  of 
Japanese  and  whites,  and  the  Federal  Government 
does  not  say  hands  off;  an  attempt  is  made  to 
pass  laws  in  California  prohibiting  the  association 
in  our  public  schools  of  Japanese  and  whites,  and 
the  Federal  Government  says  hands  off.  Surely 
that  is  consistency  for  you!  The  Federal  Govern- 
ment evidently  thinks  it  much  more  important  to 
protect  our  women  than  to  throw  protection  around 
our  school-girls. 

No  one  will  deny  the  right  of  Japanese  who  are 
permitted  to  come  to  California  to  have  their  chil- 
dren educated,  and  the  taxpayers  of  this  State  are 
willing  to  share  the  burden  of  such  education,  but 
separate  schools  must  be  maintained  for  the  pur- 
pose. If  the  Japanese  object  to  this,  let  them  either 
send  their  children  to  Japan  to  be  educated,  or 
devise  some  other  means. 


There  has  been  considerable  publicity  given  to 
the  statements  of  certain  high  government  officials 
that,  any  action  on  the  part  of  California  to  pro- 
hibit ine  attendance  of  Japanese  men  at  our  pub- 
lic schools  along  with  white  girls,  will  precipitate 
war. 

Well,  if  it  has  come  to  the  pass  that,  in  order  to 
protect  the  welfare  and  future  happiness  of  our 
daughters  we  must  war  with  an  undesirable  people, 
we  say,  on  with  the  war. 

Is  it  possible  that  the  American  Nation  has  fallen 
so  low  in  the  human  scale  that  it  values  more  highly 
the  friendliness  of  a  foreign  nation  than  the  best 
interests  of  American  school-girls?  We  think  not. 
We  know  there  is  not  a  man  in  California — and  do 
not  believe  there  is  one  in  the  whole  United 
States — who  would  not  gladly  and  willingly  sacri- 
fice his  life,  if  need  be,  in  defense  of  the  public 
school-girls  of  this  great  State. 

But  all  this  Japanese  war  talk  is,  in  our  opinion, 
but  a  bugaboo  set  up  by  certain  interests  who  are 
profiting  by  the  employment  of  Japanese  laborers 
in  preference  to  white  men.  It  has  no  foundation 
in  fact,  and  is  being  made  use  of  for  purely  com- 
mercial reasons.  War  with  Japan  would  mean  that 
practically  every  Japanese  in  this  country  would 
depart  for  his  native  land,  and  as  a  consequence, 
fhose  waxing  rich  from  the  profits  of  Japanese  labor 
would   suffer   financially. 

We  do  not  believe  the  exclusion  of  Japanese  from 
our  public  schools  would  precipitate  war.  It  per- 
haps would  call  forth  a  strenuous  protest  from  the 
government  of  Japan,  but  in  the  end  that  same 
government  would  unquestionably  look  upon  us  with 
greater  favor  than  ever.  It  would  recognize  the 
real  value  of  the  friendship  of  a  government  which 
holds  the  welfare  of  its  school-girls  above  all  com- 
mercial interests. 

But  whether  any  such  action  of  California's  does 
or  does  not  bring  about  war,  should  not  be  con- 
sidered. There  is  entirely  too  much  Japanese  war 
talk — so  much,  in  fact,  that  it  is  becoming  nauseat- 
ing to  American  citizens.  Why,  it  is  even  getting  to 
the  point  where,  in  order  to  prevent  imaginative 
war,  our  women  must  give  up  their  street  car  seats 
to  Japanese,  and  our  fathers  and  mothers  must  look 
with  favor  upon  the  thought  of  their  daughters  be- 
coming the  mothers  of  Japanese  children.  Presently, 
no  doubt,  we  will  be  called  upon  to  seek  a  new 
place  of  residence,  in  order  that  the  Japanese  may 


have  full  and  undisputed  possession  of  this  favored 
land. 

We  are  not  Japanese-haters.  We  believe  that,  as 
long  as  they  are  permitted  to  come  to  this  coun- 
try, they  should  be  given  full  protection  from  in- 
sult and  violence,  the  same  as  any  other  foreigner, 
provided  they,  in  turn,  are  willing  to  submit  to  all 
our  laws  that  are  within  reason.  The  refusal  to 
Japanese  men  of  permission  to  attend  school  as 
companions  of  white  girls,  is  manifestly  within 
reason,  and  if  they  do  not  care  to  submit  to  such 
a  regulation,  it  is  their  privilege  to  not  come  here 
or,  if  here,  to  go  elsewhere. 

There  are  more  Japanese  in  California  than  in 
any  other  State,  and  necessarily  the  people  here  are 
more  familiar  with  their  customs  and  inclinations 
than  the  people  of  the  Eastern  states.  If  the  people 
of  other  states  believe  it  unjust  for  us  to  legislate 
against  permitting  Japanese  to  attend  our  public 
schools,  it  is  their  privilege  to  open  wide  their 
school  doors  and  encourage  the  Japanese  to  settle 
among  them.  We  will  not  object.  But  at  the  same 
time,  we  demand  the  privilege  of  saying  who  shall, 
and  who  shall  not,  attend  our  schools. 

As  stated  above,  this  question  of  compelling  our 
girls  to  daily  associate  in  school  with  Japanese  men, 
is  one  of  great  importance  to  the  future  welfare  of 
California.  It  is  a  question  that,  affecting  Cali- 
fornia alone,  California's  Legislature  should  be 
permitted,  unhampered  by  Federal  interference,  to 
settle.  If  its  settlement  for  our  best  interests  will 
bring  about  war,  it  will  be  a  war  for  the  Eight,  and 
the  Federal  Government  should  not  hesitate  to  back 
up  one  of  the  sovereign  states  of  the  Union  in  any 
legislation  that  has  Right  for  its  foundation. 

The  future  of  California  is  largely  within  the 
keeping  of  her  present-day  school-girls. 

The  sacred  duty  of  California's  law-making  body 
is  to  enact  laws  that  will  throw  every  protection 
around   those   school-girls. 

Let  the  Legislature  do  its  full  and  simple  duty, 
and  the  Japanese  will  be  excluded  from  our  public 
schools.  The  people  of  California  demand  such  ac- 
tion, and  the  people  of  the  Nation  will  approve  the 
demand. 

Any  legislator  who  opposes,  through  fear  or  talk 
of  war,  the  passage  of  such  a  regulating  measure, 
is  a  derelict  and  a  coward,  and  not  a  representative, 
of  the  people  of  the  great  State  of  California. 


HOME  INDUSTRY  MOVEMENT  MUST  HAVE  ASSISTANCE  OF  ALL 


The  Home  Industry  movement  recently  inaugu- 
rated in  San  Francisco  has  awakened  a  responsive 
chord  in  the  heart  of  every  Calif ornian  who  i  s 
interested  in  the  State's  commercial  welfare.  It 
is  a  movement  deserving  of  careful  consideration, 
for  upon  its  success  rests  the  industrial  future  of 
this  Commonwealth. 

California,  with  its  wonderful  resources,  should 
be  one  of  the  greatest  manufacturing  states  in  the 
Union,  yet  it  is  a  fact  that  we  are  dropping  away 
to  the  rear  in  the  list  of  manufacturing  states.  We 
have  every  inducement  to  offer  manufacturers — 
more  than  has  any  other  state — but  with  all  our 
natural  advantages  we  are  not  making  progress — 
in  truth,  we  are  retrograding. 

There  is  a  reason  for  this,  and  the  Home  Indus- 
try movement  has  for  its  object  the  pointing  out 
of  this  reason  to  all  Californians,  in  the  hope 
that,  when  we  have  been  enlightened,  loyalty  to 
our  State  and  its  industries  will  bring  about  condi- 
tions that  are  of  advantage  to  ourselves  and  the 
whole  State. 

Following  the  example  set  by  San  Francisco,  other 
manufacturing  sections  have  seen  the  necessity  for 
a  Home  Industry  League,  and  formation  of  branch 
leagues  is  now  in  progress.  Recently  one  was 
organized  in  Sacramento,  with  the  idea  of  foster- 
ing those  factories  already  in  existence  and  en- 
couraging others  to  locate  there. 

The  Home  Industry  movement  is  not,  in  any 
sense  of  the  term,  a  selfish  proposition.  It  does  not 
attempt  to  influence  the  purchase  of  the  products 
of  one  section  in  preference  to  those  of  another. 
It  is  a  movement  in  the  best  interests  of  the  whole. 


State,  and  through  the  establishment  of  branch 
leagues,  each  manufacturing  section  is  urged  to 
educate  its  clientele  to  the  use  of  its  own  products 
in    particular,    and    California   products    in    general. 

There  is  no  denying  the  fact  that  every  interest 
which  should  be  doing  its  just  share  toward  pro- 
moting the  industrial  development  of  the  State  has, 
in  the  past,  been  sitting  idly  by  and  allowing  our 
manufacturing  resources  to  continue  undeveloped, 
and  the  Home  Industry  League  hopes  'i  unite  all 
these  interests  under  the  banner  o-'  industrial 
Progress. 

The  producer,  the  manufacturer,  .^e  jobber,  and 
the  consumer,  are  each  equally  guilty  of  treason  to 
the  State's  industries.  They  have  been  guided 
largely  by  selfishness,  to  the  detriment  of  the  whole 
State.  Their  interests  are  really  in  common,  and 
it  is  hoped  by  unanimity  of  action,  through  the 
Home  Industry  League,  to  banish  Selfishness,  and 
in  its  stead  make  Loyalty  to  the  State's  Resources 
the  guiding  star  of  each  and  all. 

The  producer  is  at  fault,  because  he  has  con- 
sented to  have  California  products  sold  to  Eastern 
manufacturers  and  sent  back  here  to  be  retailed  as 
the  products  of  Eastern  states.  The  manufacturer 
is  at  fault,  because  he  has  not  offered  a  fair  price 
for  all  our  raw  material,  to  be  turned  out  as  finished 
products  here  at  home.  The  jobber  is  at  fault,  be- 
cause he  has  been  inveigled,  by  the  thought  of  a 
few  more  cents'  profit,  to  push  the  sales  of  Eastern 
products  in  preference  to  home  products.  And  the 
consumer  is  at  fault,  because  he  has  not  been  suf- 
ficiently interested  in  the  State's  industries  to  de- 
mand California-made  goods;  and  even  when  he  does 


demand    them,    he    has    not    had    the    backbone    to 
insist  that  his  demand  must  be  met  by  the  retailer. 

The  faults  of  the  producer,  manufacturer,  and 
jobber,  are  largely  traceable  to  a  monetary  con- 
sideration. While  the  saving  of  a  few  cents  on  the 
price  asked  may  be,  in  slight  degree,  responsible 
for  the  consumer's  apathy,  we  believe  his  fault  is 
one  born  almost  entirely  of  ignorance  as  to  what 
is  manufactured  in  this  State.  The  manufacturer 
alone  is  responsible  for  the  latter  state  of  affairs. 
In  not  giving  publicity  to  what  he  produces,  he  has 
failed  to  reap  the  harvest  such  publicity  would,  in 
large  measure,  yield. 

If,  through  a  niggardly  advertising  policy,  the 
manufacturer  does  not  make  known  his  products 
through  those  channels  of  publicity  which  will  reach 
a  class  of  consumers  anxious  and  willing  to  give 
preference  to  home  products,  he  can  blame  no  one 
but  himself,  should  his  investment  show  poor  re- 
turns. Several  of  our  manufacturers  spend  their 
advertising  funds  with  Eastern  publications,  and 
then  complain  bitterly  because  the  home  consumer

There  is  indeed  much  meat  for  thonght  in  the 
1910  census,  as  regards  California,  at  least.  Then' 
is  a  good  and  sufficient  reason  for  either  the  increase 
iir  decrease  in  each  enmity's  population.  Whatever 
the  cause,  it  is  within  cur  power,  as  residents  of 
the  several  counties,  to  bring  about  conditions  that 
should  cause  the  L920  census  to  show  a  percentage 
of  gain   in   each  county. 

Every  county  in  the  state  has  in  Los  Angeles 
County  an  example  of  what  a  progressive  people, 
backed  by  a  unanimity  of  purpose,  can  accomplish 
in  the  way  of  development.  There  are  just  as  great 
opportunities  for  developmenl   work  in  every  county 

in  this  State  as  are  to  he  found   in    Los   Angeles,  but, 

unlike  the  people  of  our  southern  county,  the  peo- 
ple of  other  sections  have  either  been  unmindful  of 
their  wonderful  resources,  or  have  devoted  that 
time  and  energy  which  the  Los  A.ngelenos  have 
given  to  boosting,  to  a  development  of  petty 
jealousies   and    bickerings. 

L\  ery  *  'alifoinian.  not  blinded  by  sectional 
jealousy,  must  feel  proud  of  the  great  strides  made 
by  Los  Angeles  County.  And  his  praiseworthy  devo-

longing  to  have  his  section  equal,  if  not  exceed, 
the  wonderful   progress  made  by  his  southern   sister. 

Let   the  new  year  find  each   ami  every  one  of   us 

engaged    in    doing   our   utmost    to   develop   our   home

An   envelope   came   into   our   possession    the   other 

day.   bearing   the    inscription,   "Return    to ,   San 

Fran,    Calif."      Isn't    that    an    outrage.' 

To  think  that  a  resident  of  San  Franeisco  hasn't 
anj  more  respecl  for  her  home  city  than  to  chop 
oft"  its  name  until  even  the  oldest  inhabitant  would 
not  recognize  it.  And  also,  to  think  that  any  Cali- 
fornia!)—and  m  this  instance,  a  native — hasn 't  any 
more  love  for  tin1  great  State  of  California  than  to 
abort  ionize   its  name   into   "Calif.'' 

It  does  not  eost  any  more  to  print  the  full  name 
"California,"  nor  the  full  name  of  any  city,  town 
or  hamlet  therein.     So  why  this  needless  butchering? 

California  is  a  big  State — in  area,  in  population, 
in  past  development,  in  present  resources,  and  in 
future  possibilities — and  necessarily  has  a  big  name. 
Any  attempt  to  abbreviate  <>■:  shorten  its  name  can 
Only  be  accounted  for  from  e  ther  one  of  two  causes: 
ignorance    of    the    State's    gieatness,    or    a    desire    to 

belitl h>   its  importance. 

Letter  not  use  the  word  "California"  at  all,  than 
to  make  use  of  it  in  sections,  as  we  want  no  srr 
tions  here,  either  in  name,  territory,  or  sentiment. 
This  is  CALIFORNIA,  and  everything  about  it 
must    be   preserved    intact.

charges  $1000  an  hour  for  flying  services,  how  many 
ears  must  be  shipped  to  provide  sufficient  dollars 
to  get  an  aviator  to  fly  from  Los  Angeles  to  Pass

Many  much  needed  reforms  are  promised  at  the

Till    great    prowess    he    could    boast

(CONDUCTED   BY   AUNT  ELLA    AND  UNCLE  ADLEY  STERLING.) 


The    Children    of   California. 
Sown  is  the  golden  grain,  planted  the  vines, 
Fall  swift,  0  loving  rain,  lift  prayers,  0  pines; 
O  gold  land,  O  green  land,  fair  land  by  the  sea, 
The  trust  of  thy  children  reposes  in  thee. 


HUS  SINGS  ' <  OUR  LILLIAN, ' ' 
who  crossed  the  plains  when  she  was 
a  babe-in-arms,  now  Mrs.  Lillian  H. 
S.  Bailey,  the  true  California  poet 
of  our  State.  This  poem  should  be 
inscribed  on  banners  of  gold  satin 
and  hung  in  every  Parlor  of  our 
Orders.  Each  line  is  perfect  in  its 
fitness  to  our  land,  out  here  by  the 
Pacific.  I  always  think,  in  our  wet 
season,  of  that  line,  "Fall  swift  O 
loving  rain,"  for  who  else  but  a 
poet,  who  is  part  and  parcel  of  our  glorious  Cali- 
fornia, would  have  called  rain,  "loving?"  The 
most  of  people  consider  rain  hateful;  not  so  with 
our  poet,  who  has  lived  close  to  the  heart  of  Nature 
and  knows  the  voice  of  the  rain-fairies  as  they 
bring  wealth  and  gladness  to  all  growing  things — 
which  also  includes  children.  Likewise  it  is  quite 
natural  that  that  last  line,  "The  trust  of  thy  chil- 
dren reposes  in  thee,"  should  appeal  to  us  all.  Of 
course  our  trust  reposes  in  California.  We  expect 
her  to  do  everything  for  us — to  give  us  of  her 
bounty,  to  furnish  us  our  homes  in  a  climate  unsur- 
passed in  the  great  world,  to  drop  loaves  of  bread 
and  bottles  of  milk  at  our  doorsteps  each  morning, 
to  enable  us  to  find  nickels  enough  so  we  shall  walk 
as  little  as  possible  and  ride  instead,  to  let  us  own 
her  from  Modoc  to  San  Diego,  a  splendid  kingdom 
of  our  own,  and  finally,  to  take  us  in  her  arms,  to 
sleep  in  her  hallowed  soil  peacefully  and  con- 
tentedly, at  the  end  of  our  pilgrimage. 

But  what  I  should  like  to  know  is  this:  "WHAT 
ARE  WE  GOING  TO  DO  FOR  HER,  IN  RETURN 
FOR  ALL  THIS?  It  is  all  well  enough  for  ns  to 
have  our  trust  reposing  in  her.  But  how  about  her 
trust  reposing  in  us?  Ought  we  to  be  receiving  all 
this,  and  giving  nothing?  If  in  a  lethargy,  we 
ought  to  be  hiring  a  watchman  up  aloft  to  tell  us 
of  the  hour,  so  as  to  waken  in  time  to  know  what 
is  gong  on.  There  are  few  of  us  who  do  realize 
that  a  great  revival  of  the  good  old  California 
spirit  is  needed,  in  order  to  do  something  for  our 
State.  A  little  leaven  leaveneth  the  lump — that  is 
our  only  hope.  But,  brothers  and  sisters,  you  must 
all  set  up  a  little  leaven,  like  so  much  bread,  to 
rise,  in  order  to  do  your  duty  to  your  State.  What 
do  I  man  by  that?  Just  this,  that  we  all  have 
troubles  of  our  own — worries,  debts,  sick,  crippled 
and  weak-minded  relatives,  all  of  whom  we  must 
help  to  pull  with  us  along  this  rough  road  of  life. 
But  that  is  no  excuse  for  not  realizing  that  we  must 
also  give  our  fealty  and  our  devotion  to  our 
MOTHER,  CALIFORNIA. 

We  must  be  more  public-spirited.  I  know  of  a 
Native  Son  of  great  wealth  whom  I  asked  sixteen 
years  ago  this  question:  "Why  do  yon  not  take 
your  millions  and  go  to  Ireland*  and  qualify  your- 
self to  become  a  member  of  Parliament  at  West- 
minster, and  mingle  with  the  cultured  and  noble  in 
the  chief  center  of  English-speaking  civilization? 
You  could  do  it  easy  enough  if  you  wanted  to." 
I  shall  never  forget  his  reply:  "I  do  not  do  that 
because  I  love  my  native  State  better  than  any 
spot  in  the  whole  world.  When  I  am  traveling 
abroad  and  see  any  beautiful  things  of  art  I  have 
but  one  feeling — to  fetch  it  with  me  and  set  it 
up  in  San  Francisco  to  share  with  those  who  can- 
not have  these  privileges  which  have  been  mine." 


Even  I  caught  fire  from  the  thought.  When  the 
day  came  that  I  went  to  Europe  that  idea  under- 
lay every  desire  I  experienced.  I  wanted  to  bring 
the  British  Museum  home  with  me.  The  picture 
gallery  at  Liverpool  I  wish  I  could  abstract  and  set 
up  here  in  my  home-city.  And  during  all  these 
years  that  Native  Son  has  been  working  for  our 
State  and  our  city  against  a  thousand  wills  set  up 
against  his,  because  they  were  all  set  upon  them- 
selves and  not  for  the  good  of  our  civic  life. 

Last  month  I  told  you  about  the  snarl  of  the 
wolf  in  us  which  should  be  suppressed  and  the 
kindly  word  given  instead.  And  on  the  opposite 
page  were  such  words  on  Christmas  as  are  not  to 
be  found  in  any  other  paper  or  magazine  in  our 
bookstores,  excepting  none.  Those  words  came  from 
the  heart  of  a  Sacramento  Native  Son  who  clings 
to  the  good  old'  ideas  of  our  early  times,  and  it 
should  awaken  a  response  in  every  heart  to  read 
them,  because  they  are  leaven — because  thy  are  liv- 
ing words  for  California.  You  need  them,  and  I 
need  them,  and  everybody  needs  them.  If  we  are 
too  busy  to  do  things  ourselves,  we  must  at  least 
give  applause  to  those  who  are  doing  these  public- 
spirited  things  for  us — we  must  hold  them  up  and 
encourage  them.  We  must  create  sentiment  toward 
making  it  possible  for  them  to  survive.  I  have 
found  no  other  publication  like  the  Grizzly  Bear, 
since  my  return  from  abroad,  ready  to  stand  alone, 
if  need  be,  in  defense  of  our  STATE,  absolutely 
imbued  by  the  sense  of  civic  duty.  As  long  as  this 
feeling  survives,  no  one  can  bring  about  the  divi- 
sion of  our  State  into  two  little  states.  We  must 
recognize  how  much  this  quality  is  needed  for  the 
protection  of  our  native  empire,  and  join  hands,  as 
well  as  hearts,  to  enable  this  publication  to  -con- 
tinue its  watchful  care  over  us. 

It  is  not  my  way  to  talk  about  what  we  don 't 
want.  But  at  last  the  moment  has  come  when  I 
must,  so  let  me  get  it  over  as  quickly  as  possible. 
I  would  conjure  you,  in  the  name  of  the  CHIL- 
DREN OF  CALIFORNIA.  Can  we  not  stand  to- 
gether for  them?  There  are  hateful  influences  at 
work  trying  to  debauch  the  minds  of  our  lambkins. 
Shall  we  permit  them  to  continue?  At  this  present 
moment  there  is  a  ribald  song  which  has  won  its 
way  into  California,  because  of  our  respect  for  the 
bear  on  our  earliest,  flag,  as  it  claims  that  name  for 
its  title.  In  Sacramento,  the  dealers  have  been 
told  to  suppress  it,  and  the  creature  who  came  to 
sing  it  has  been  ordered  to  cease  her  lowness  and 
vulgarity.  If  finally  good  shall  eome  because  this 
will  awaken  us  to  the  need  of  safeguarding  our 
children,  then  we  shall  be  glad.  But  meanwhile, 
these  lambkins  are  singing  this  bestial  thing  right 
in  the  homes.  Two  boys  who  have  been  preparing 
for  their  first  communion,  came  to  see  me  this  morn- 
ing, with  chaste  white  blossoms  in  their  buttou- 
holes  and  brand  new  suits  on,  all  spick  and  span 
as  mother's  love  and  father's  money  could  make 
them,  and  as  clean  within  as  the  holy  fathers  could 
produce.  They  caught  sight  of  my  Grizzly  Bear, 
and  all  at  once  the  beauty  of  a  chastened  boyhood 
disappeared.  They  began  to  look  devilish  and  sang 
the  words  which  I  have  forbidden  to  be  brought 
into   my  house. 

What,  O  my  brothers  and  sisters,  are  we  going 
to  do  ?  Shall  we  abandon  the  lambkins  to  the 
wolves  altogether?  Are  these,  the  lewd  and  the 
horrible,  to  undo  the  State  by  undoing  our  chil- 
dren before  our  very  eyes?  Shall  the  white  blossom 
be  shriveled  by  the  scorch  of  wickedness  while  we 
are  sleeping  and  unconscious  of  what  is  going  on? 
I  say,  for  the  sake  of  our  State  being  able  to  repose 
trust  in  our  children,  that  we  give  them  a  chance 
for  their  lives.  For  as  the  children  are,  so  shall  the 
State  be.  We  must  make  it  our  personal  affair, 
each  and  every  neighbor  of  us,  to  interrupt  the 
children  in  the  singing  of  such  ribaldry  and  begin 
clapping  our  hands  to  start  a  new  rhythm  and 
raise  the  stirring  measure  they  used  to  give  forth 
when  crossing  the  plains  in  the  eai'ly  days,  as  one 
would  drive  devils  away: 

We  are  pilgrims,  and  we  are  brothers, 
We  can  tarry,  we  can  tarry  but  a  night. 
Do  not  detain  us,   for  we  are  going 
To   where   Love's   fountains   are    ever   flowing. 
We  are  pilgrims,  Great  Spirit  help  us, 
We  can  tarry,  we  can  tarry  but  a  night.

shadow  on  her  face,  which  nothing  can  dispel — 
neither  gems  nor  gold  nor  silver,  not  laces,  not  music, 
sweet  nor  glorious.  When  the  White  Prince  of  the 
United  States  arrives  to  sue  for  her  hand,  she  arises 
and  gives  it  to  him,  but  the  shadow  is  still  on  her 
face.  So  her  father,  King  Pacifiico,  and  her  mother, 
Queen  Sierra  Nevada,  beg  of  him  what  can  be 
done.  And  in  reply,  he  says  eloquently:  "What 
wonder  the  shadow  lies  on  the  Princess'  face!  How 
can  she  be  happy,  receiving  all  and  giving  nothing. " 
He  urgs  that  the  nations  of  all  lands  of  the  Atlantic 
be  sent  for,  to  dwell  with  them,  that  she  might 
share  with  them  all  her  treasure.  This  is  done,  and 
to  the  delight  of  all,  the  shadow  passes,  never  to 
return,  and  all  danced  a  farandole  on  that  happy 
Christmas  night  when  evergreens  made  sweet  the 
air,  and  all  hearts  turned  kindly  toward  each  other. 

It  took  about  one  minute  for  our  Deejers  to  erect 
the  throne  for  the  Princess,  as  soon  as  the  story  was 
told  them.  It  was  a  screen  background  of  gold  and 
black,  with  a  fringed  yellow  canopy,  delightfully 
swung  from  above,  while  a  satin  embroidered  table- 
cloth of  golden  color  covered  the  chair  where  royalty 
should  sit.  Then  arose  the  question,  "Who  was  to 
be  King,  and  Queen,  and  Princess,  and  the  White 
Prince?"  You  would  have  thought  them  actors  of 
years'  standing.  I  was  to  repat  the  story,  and 
they  would  give  it  in  pantomine.  "I'll  be  the  Chink 
and  you  can  kick  me  out,"  generously  agreed  one 
blonde  boy.  His  offer  was  accepted  at  once.  Well, 
we  rehearsed  the  pantomine  every  day  with  whom- 
ever happened  to  be  present,  so  that  they  all  are 
learning  the  story. 

Even  poor  little  Ruth  (the  orphan  whose  mother 
has  to  work  hard  every  day  and  who  lingers  with 
us  after  school  till  her  mother  can  get  through 
with  her  work  and  come  for  her)  played  the  Princess 
the  other  day  for  an  unexpected  group  that  came  in 
to  see  what  is  was  all  about.  Yet  only  a  few  days 
before,  Ruth  had  never  heard  of  such  a  thing  as  a 
King,  nor  a  Queen,  nor  a  Princess.  "But  you  know 
what  a  president  is?"  I  insisted.  "No,  ma'am," 
she  replied.  "Well,  then  a  mayor — you  know  what 
a  mayor  is?"  I  kept  on.  "No,  ma'am,"  she  re- 
peated. "Well,  then,  Mayor  McCarthy — you  under- 
stand— fwho  is  he?"  "I  never  heard  of  him," 
said  the  child.  That  was  unbelievable.  For  when 
I  had  asked  the  other  Deejers  to  whom  the  United 
States  belonged,  they  had  cried,  "To  P.  H.  Mc- 
Carthy." And  that  was  months  ago.  So  I  gave 
it  up,  and  took  her  in  to  see  the  throne  where  great 
people  sat  and  ruled  their  subjects. 

She  looked  it  over  and  said,  "I  should  call  that 
a  wagon."  "Why?"  I  queried,  "Has  it  got  wheels 
or  horses?  What  makes  you  think  it  is  a  wagon?" 
"Because  I  saw  things  like  that  in  the  Portola. " 
She  meant  canopies.  Then  she  went  to  dusting  the 
books  in  our  library  and  presently  she  came  to  me, 
holding  a  volume  in  her  hand.  It  was  about  Alfred 
the  Great,  and  there  was  a  picture  of  him  on  the 
cover.  "Is  this  a  King?"  asked  the  child,  "and 
is  he  sitting  on  a  throne?"  My  heart  gave  a  leap 
in  my  bosom.  And  the  next  day  little  Ruth  herself 
sat  on  the  throne  and  played  the  Princess.  And  on 
Christmas  Eve  our  Deejers  are  going  to  fill  a 
coaster  with  bundles  gathered  from  the  neighbors — 
pound  packages  of  nice  groceries — and  take  them 
down  to  the  humble  home  of  the  little  girl  and 
leave  them  there,  so  as  to  carry  out  the  ideas  of 
the  White  Prince  of  the  United  States — that  we 
all  shall  be  happy  by  giving  instead  of  always 
receiving. 


RARE  RELIC  LEFT  BY  PIONEER. 
(Modesto  Herald,  Nov.  23rd.) 
Dr.  C.  V.  Jones  of  this  city  has  been  offered  $150 
for  a  $50  gold  slug,  dated  1851,  which  was  left  to 
him  in  the  will  of  J.  W.  Purdy,  a  former  well- 
known  citizen  of  Sonora  and  a  distant  relative  of 
Dr.  Jones.  Mr.  Purdy  was  one  of  the  ' '  forty- 
niners"  and  was  one  of  the  Pioneer  mining  men  of 
Tuolumne  County.  He  came  to  California  in  1850 
and  began,  the  development  of  mining  property  soon 
after  he  settled  in  Tuolumne  County.  The  slug  is 
about  the  diameter  of  a  silver  dollar,  hexagonal  in 
shape,  and  has  the  inscription  "In  God  We  Trust," 
the  eagle,  and  the  words,  "United  States  Assay 
Office, "  on  one  side  and  a  concentric  circle  design 
on  the  other.  The  pieces  are  extremely  rare  and 
valued  highly  by  coin  collectors.  They  were  made 
in  the  early  fifties  by  the  United  States  assay  offices 
and  passed  freely  as  legal  tender  at  that  time. 


Christmas  Pantomine  of  "Princess  California." 
You  may  remember  that  the  symbolical  story  of 
the  "Princess  California"  was  given  in  the  Grizzly

HEROES   OF   C ALIFORM  IA. 

An  exceedingly  valuable  contribution  to  our  ('ali- 
tor nian  a  is  a  volume  just  from  George  Wharton 
James'  publishers,  entitled  "Heroes  of  Cali- 
fornia. ' '  Mr.  .Tames,  for  many  years,  has  been 
making  a  close  and  exhaustive  study  of  all  that  is 
connected  with  California's  history  and  literature, 
and  it  is  safe  to  assume  that  no  one  in  this  State 
is  better  rited  than  he  to  direct  a  course  of  reading 
along  these  lines.  In  the  introduction  to  this  booh 
he  has  given  a  list  of  books  which  he  considers 
California  classics  and  therefore  believes  should  be 
in  every  school  library  of  the  State.  As  Mr. 
James  suggests,  the  youth  of  our  land  will  know 
not  hin g  of  t hi's.'  people  who  have  builded  so  well 
unless  we  of  more  mature  years  make  known  tin1 
existence  of  the  wealth  of  material  that  can  be 
procured.      A    most    excellent    idea   set    forth   by    Mr.

.lam.  s  i-  quoted:  "If  the  Native  Sons  ami 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  West  would  take  hold  of 
this  matter  with  one-tenth  i  he  energy  displayed  !■■ 
their    Pioneer   ancestors,   the   thing   would    be   done 

in    less    than    a    year,    and    with    tin-;    uoble    ami    these 

organizations    won  hi    do    more    g I    to    the    rising 

generation  than  any  other  one  thing  they  could 
accomplish. 

Some  of  tiir  heroes  of  whom  Mr.  James  lias  writ- 
ton  have  divulged  to  him  their  own  stories  and  In' 
has  given  their  own  words,  while  others  are  from 
the  best  of  information  to  be  obtained.  "The 
Midnighl    Heroine   of   the    Plains,    Virginia    Reed," 

is  the  theme  of  a  most  interesting  chapter.  ''The 
Self -Sacrificing,  Self  Disciplining  Pioneer  Mi-hhh 
ary  Hero,  Junipero  Serra,''  "The  Typical  Hero 
of  Earl}  Hold  Days,  John  Bidwell,"  "The  Daring

' '  The  Building  Heroes  of  the  Central  Pan  lie, 
Huntington,  Stanford,  Crocker  and  Hopkins, ' ' 
"The  Studious  Hero  of  the  Mountains,  John  Muir," 
"The  Tender  Heroine  of  Indian  Friendship,  Helen 
Hunt  Jackson,' '  ami  "The  Patient  Hero  of  Agri- 
culture, Luther  Burbank, ' '  are  but  a  few  of  the 
many  notable  personages  to  which  Mr.  James  has 
directed  our  attention. 

After  the  reviewer  has  finally  reached  the  end  of 
the  book  he  will  be  fully  convinced  that  if  there  is 
any  one  book  which  should  have  its  place  in  every 

school   library   of   the   State   is   certainly    this   I k 

by  Mr.  James.  Therein,  in  concise  form  for  the 
young,  is  to  be  found  much  of  value.  The  volume 
is  quite  large,  numbering  about  500  pages,  and  con- 
tains many  helpful  and  attractive  il  In  stint  ions. 
Typographically  it  is  all  that  the  most  critical  could 
wish    for.

THE    SEA   HAWK. 

Califomians  should  read  with  interest  "The  Sea 
Hawk."  a  story  having  its  setting  along  our  coast, 
and  written  by  a  Calif ornian,  Bailey  Millard,  whose 

last  i k,  "The  Lure  0 '  Gold,''  was  one  of  the  ten 

best  sellers  of  1904.  This  story  has  to  do  with 
pirates,  Chinese  junks,  and  pearl  fishing,  each  of 
which  is  sufficient  of  itself  to  give  dramatic  power 
but,  when  all  combined,  the  story  becomes  so  won 
dei  fully  dramatic  that  were  it  not  toy  ;(  bit  of 
love  interwoven  which  sooths  and  quiets,  the  reader 
would   be  quite   overcome  at  times. 

"The  Sea  Hawk''  is  the  name  given  to  Mrs. 
Thrale,  the  wife  of  the  captain  of  the  stolen  yacht. 
Throughout  the  story,  the  reader  is  impressed  with 


the  wonderful  courage  an.!  executive  ability  of  this 
strange    character,    bul    :it     no    time    is    be    drawn 

toward  loo-  mi  a   r Uj   wa^    until   Mi.   Millard  very 

prettily  makes  him  see  that  under  the  rough  ex 
terior  there  is  the  beautiful  soul.     One  likes  Hazel 

Braislod   from  the  begi ag,  and  has  e\  ery  reason 

to  believe  thai  Levis  will  make  good  an. I  win  her 
from  the  disagreeable  Englishman,  bul  n  is  finally 
nil  .lone  so  simply  and  quietly  i  hat  i oh-  is  quite 
unprepared    tor   the   closing   scene. 

It    it    was  the  author's  purpose  to  depict   life  along 

'oast    in   the   days   when    pirates    and    I  bine  e 

junks    ruled    the    waters,    thou     this     is    ;i     valuable 
book   to  road;    while,  on  the  other  hand,   if  it   be   bul 
a   romantic     tale,    it     proves    intensely     Interesting 
readi  ng,    a    t  bread    of    mystery    along    with     inte] 
action    leaving    no    dull    pages. 


WHAT    OUR   WRITERS    ARE    DOING. 

During  the  fall  months  California  writers  have 
contributed  much  to  the  literature  of  the  West. 
In  glancing  through  the  leading  magazines  of  the 
Last  one  is  convinced  that  our  writers  have  a  far 
greater  percentage  of  articles,  stories,  and  so  forth, 
than  writers  from  any  other  section  of  the  United 
States. 

Then   a  great  number  of  books   lm\ me   from 

the  publishing  houses:  Jack  London  has  given  us, 
"  Burning  Daylight. ' '  "When  God  Laughs"  and 
"Theft."  George  Wharton  James  has  contributed 
"The  Grand  Canyon  of  Arizona — How  to  See  It'' 
and  "Heroes  of  California.''  "The  Sea  Hawk" 
is  by  Bailey  Millard.  Henry  Meade  Bland  has 
issued  a  book  of  poems  entitled.  "Sierran  Pan  and 
Other  Poems.  Ernest  Peixotto  has  written  of 
"Romantic  California.1'  Lucia  Chamberlain's  last 
novel  is  entitled  "The  Song  of  the  Wind. " 
' '  t'lrieh  Von  Hut  ten ' '  is  by  David  stair  Jordan. 
"The  King's  Highway"  is  by  John  S.  McGroarty, 
who  promises  another  book  early  in  ll'll  entitled, 
••'  alifornia,  Its  History  and  Romance." 


THE    ADVENTURES    OF    TOM    SAWYER. 

Mark  Twain 's  great  book  has  long  demanded  a 
genuinely  tine  foundation,  and  now  the  publishers 
believe  such  a  book  will  meet  with  a  welcome  wide 
enough  to  justify  the  outlay.  That  the  pictures 
might  have  the  accuracy  and  atmosphere  essential 
to  a  book  like  "Tom  Sawyer,'  the  artist  went  to 
Missouri  and  spend  some  time  in  the  actual  locali- 
ties. His  pictures  will  satisfy  every  "Tom  Saw- 
yer" admirer.  The  book  has  been  made  through 
out  with  every  care  for  painstaking  workmanship. 
It  is  printed  from  entirely  new  plates  made 
especially  for  this  edition. 


OLD    MEXICAN   WAR    SOLDIER    PASSES 

BEYOND    AFTER    INTERESTING    CAREER.

Soldiers,    weary    from    their   toil. ' ' 

Morris  I  >e  Lafayette  Dowane,  who  answered 
death's  roll-call  at  Wheatland,  Yuba  County,  De 
cember  loth,  came  from  fighting  stock,  his  grand 
father  and  father  having  fought  in  the  Revolu- 
tionary War,  the  latter  entering  the  army  as  drum- 
mer boy  at  t In'  age  of  fourteen.  Deceased  was

ber  31,  1822,  and  joined  the  army  at  an  early  age, 
serving  his  country  for  ten  years;  at  the  close  of 
the  Mexican  War  bn  "IMS,  the  soldiers  were  returned 
to  East  Pensacola,  Mississippi,  where  they  camped 
on  the  old  "Jeff  Davis  Farm.''  and  at  this  place 
the  volunteers  were  mustered  out,  while  the  regu 
lars  were  distributed  among  the  different  camps 
and  posts.  Mr.  Dowane 's  company  was  sent  from 
East  1'ensacola  to  New  York,  ami  from  there  im- 
mediately to  Fort  Mackinac,  Michigan,  where  it  was 
stationed    until     the    summer    of    1  s."2,    when     it     was 

transferred  back  to  New  York.  It  was  at  Fort 
Mackinac  that  deceased  wooed  and  won  the  girl 
that    was  his  life   companion. 

I  iii  iii  id  lately  reinlisting  at  New  York  in  Com- 
pany A,  Fourth  Regular  Infantry,  under  command 
of  Lieutenants  Russel  and  Dryer,  Mr.  Dowane  and 
Wife  took  passage  on  the  sailing  bark,  "  Fredonin  " 
which,  after  a  long  and  stormy  passage  around  the 
I  bun.     landed     at.     Vancouver,     Washington.        From 

there  tin mpany  marched  to   Stillicomb,   arriving 

in  the  fall  of  1853,  and  here  deceased  was  stationed 
for  three  ye:n  s,  or  until  he  was  discharged  in 
December,  1856.  Leaving  immediately,  he  and  his 
wife  took  passage  for  San  Francisco,  went   up  the 


Sacramento  River  to  Sacramento  City,  and  thence 
by  stage  to  camp  "Far  West."  in  Yuba  County.

COUNTIES   COMMITTEE   MEETING 

AT  OAKLAND,  THIS  MONTH. 
The  semi-annual  meeting  of  the  v  .unities  Commil 
bee  of  the  California  Development  Board  promises 
to  he  the  most  successful  meeting  of  the  kind  ever 
held  in  this  State.  Although  the  program  has  not 
as  yet  been  formally  announced,  it  is  well  under 
stood  that  the  efforts  to  secure  speakers  of  high 
reputation  have  been  very  successful.  Present  indi- 
cations would  show  that  nearly  every  county  organi- 
sation in  the  State  is  planning  to  send  at  least  one 
delegate  to  Oakland,  where  the  meeting  will  be 
held  January  6th  and  7th.  On  the  closing  night  of 
the  session,  a  banquet  will  In1  spread  for  the  visiting 
delegates. 


If  California   is  good   enough  to  live   in,  Califoi 

nia's  products  ought  to  be  good  enough  to  live  on. 
Think  it  over,  brothers  and  sisl ,>i -,.  and  begin  the 
new  yes  r  by  purchasing  only  made  in  California 
goods. 


The  end  of  an  argument    is  better  than  either  side 
of    it.

Official  world's  records  in  aviation  circles  are 
recognized  as  follows;  Altitude,  $10,499;  duration, 
8  h,  23  m;  distance,  320  miles;  speed,  76.8  miles.  It 
is  predicted  that  some,  if  not  all,  of  these  records 
will  be  equaled  during  the  Los  Angeles  aviation 
meet,  and  it  is  confidently  expected  by  some  of  the 
more  enthusiastic  air-fans  that  more  than  one 
world's  record  will  go-a-glimmering. 

All  the  bird-men  will  assemble  in  San  Francisco 
in  January,  where  there  will  be  a  meet  of  several 
days'  duration,  and  for  which  large  cash  prizes 
have  been  guaranteed^  The  contests  will  take  place 
at   Tanforan  Park,   January   6th   to   16th. 

San  Diego  also  plans  an  aviation  meet  the  third 
week  in  January,  and  from  San  Francisco  the  avi- 
ators will  remove  their  paraphernalia  to  the  south- 
ern city.  One  feature  promised  for  this  meet  is  a 
race  from  San  Diego  to  Los  Angeles  and  return. 


Hunters  Cannot  Invade  Private  Property. 

The  Third  District  Court  of  Appeal,  sitting  at 
Sacramento,  has  just  handed  down  an  interesting 
decision  relative  to  the  rights  of  hunters  to  pur- 
sue game  on  private  lands — in  this  instance, 
premises  in  Napa  County,  known  as  Fly  Bay.  In 
the  Superior  Court,  the  presiding  judge  had  de- 
cided that,  as  wild  game  belonged  to  the  people, 
hunters  could  invade  private  property  in  pursuit  of 
same. 

The  Appellate  Court,  however,  takes  an  entirely 
different  view  of  the  case,  and  in  a  unanimous  deci- 
sion says  that  while  "the  wild  game  of  the  State 
belongs  to  the  people  in  their  sovereign  capacity, 
and  is  not  subject  to  private  dominion  to  any  great- 
er extent  than  the  people,  through  the  Legislature, 
may  see  fit  to  make,  yet  under  section  656,  Civil 
Code,  while  wild  birds  are  within  a  person's  enclos- 
ure, he  has  such  rights  in  them  as  entitle  him  to  pro- 
tect them  from  invasion  by  those  not  authorized  to 
be  there,  and  any  person  violating  such  rights  is 
as  much  a  trespasser  as  though  entering  unbidden 
the  plaintiff's  dwelling.''

Shortage  of  Geese  in  Glenn  County. 
Hunters  of  Glenn  County,  which  has  been  re- 
garded as  tne  best  goose-hunting  section  in  the 
world,  report  that  the  flocks  have  been  so  decimated 
that  now  there  is  but  one  goose  where  several  years 
ago  there  were  twenty.  To  a  disease  that  has  at- 
tacked the  flocks  in  the  breeding  grounds  in  Alaska 
and  on  the  North  Pacific  coast  is  ascribed  this  fall- 
ing off  in  numbers.  Fabulous  amounts  were  spent 
by  the  farmers  in  Glenn  County  in  bygone  years 
to  keep  ~the  geese  from  the  grain  fields,  according 
to  the  Willows  Journal,  and  it  was  formerly  the 
custom  to  have  one  goose-herder  for  every  seetion 
of  land.  The  cost  for  his  ammunition  in  a  day 
would  reach  as  high  as  $10  or  $12.     On  the  Glenn 


Rowing  Back  on  '  'Escogni^ed' '  List. 
As  a  result  of  rowing  being  re-established  as  a 
recognized  intercollegiate  sport,  after  one  year  on 
the  "prohibited"  list,,  much  interest  has  been 
awakened  in  the  oar-love:s  among  the  students  of 
the  University  of  California  and  Stanford  Uni- 
versity, and  many  contests  a:e  already  being 
planned.  The  student  bodies  of  both  universities, 
for  the  present  year  at  least,  have  decided  again  to 
foster  boating  and  it  is  expected  that  the  change 
will  revive  the  old  days  when  the  crew  man  was 
almost  as  great  a  hero  as  the  football   player. 


National  League  1911  Schedule. 
At  a  meeting  held  in  New  York,  December  16th, 
the  National  Baseball  League  decided  on  a  season 
of  154  games  for  1911,  the  season  to  begin  on  April 
12th,  and  end  on,  or  about,  October  12th.  Last 
season  154  games  were  played.  This  schedule  plan 
was  adopted  after  consultation  with  the  American 
League. 


Pacific  Coast  League  in  1911. 

There  has  been  a  great  deal  of  high-class  baseball 
dispensed  to  the  patrons  of  the  Pacific  Coast  League 
during  its  existence,  but  the  season  of  1911,  from  all 
indications,  will  be  the  banner  year  in  all  respects, 
as  every  club  will  go  into  the  fight  strengthened  over 
last  year.  No  expense  has  been  spared  in  adding 
new  and  seasoned  material,  many  men  having  been 
secured  from  the  two  big  leagues,  many  of  whom 
will  go  to  the  big  brush  after  one  or  two  season's 
additional  experience  in  this  fast  company,  as 
finished   players. 

At  the  present  writing,  it  is  indeed  difficult  to 
make  any  predictions,  as  some  of  the  managers 
have  not  concluded  negotiations  for  some  of  the 
jdayers  desired.  Managers  Hogan  and  Berry  of 
Vernon  and  Los  Angeles,  respectively,  are  putting 
forth  every  effort  to  land  promising  talent  from 
American   and   National   League   clubs. 

Berry  has  his  eye  on  the  pennant  again,  as  three 
years  without  the  flag  would  be  more  than  the 
jovial,  but  determined  magnate  could  stand,  while 
Hogan  says  that  he  is  going  to  defeat  Berry's 
aggregation  worse   than   in   1910. 

Portland  has  made  some  fine  exchanges  with 
Cleveland,  and  McCredie  expects  to  excell  his  last 
year's  record. 

Nothing  but  first  honors  will  suit  Long,  Ewing  & 
Co.,  as  they  still  have  in  mind  the  gate  receipts 
of   1909   when   they   won   the   championship. 

The  Oakland  bunch  came  so  near  the  pennant  last- 
season,  they  believe  they  can'  add  the  necessary 
strength  to  land  the  goal. 

Sacramento  believes  they  have  the  candy  club, 
being  nearly  all  recruits  from  the  Boston  Ameri- 
cans. 


Athletics  in  Public  Schools. 
In  the  annual  report  of  General  George  W.  Win- 
gate,  president  of  the  New  York  Public  Schools 
Athletic  League,  just  made  public,  he  commends 
the  introduction  of  systematic  athletics  in  the  pub- 
lic schools  in  the  following  language:  "The  day 
of  experiments  in  this  matter  of  athletics  has  now 
Ions  passed.  It  has  now  become  established  on 
such  a  firm  foundation  in  both  the  schools  and  the 
public  estimation  that  its  future  is  assured.  With 
every  year  the  standard  of  athletic  ability  in  our 
public  schools  becomes  higher  and  records  which 
were  considered  wonderful  when  made  are  sur- 
passed, alertness  of  mind  and  body  and  the  general 
air  of  strength  and  health  resulting  from  the  ath- 
letic   exercises    which    the    children    have    pursued. 


Gratifying  as  this  is,  from  the  physical  side,  the 
improvement  on  the  side  of  ethics,  school  discipline 
and  esprit  duty  corps  is  even  greater,  a  fact  which 
has  converted  the  supervising  and  teaching  force  of 
the  school  into  firm  supporters  of  the  work.  The 
New  York  Public  Schools  Athletic  League,  formed 
in  1903,  is  now  the  largest  athletic  organization  in 
the  world.  Its  success  has  caused  the  formation 
of  similar  leagues  in  sixteen  of  the  great  cities  of 
the  country  and  more  are  constantly  adopting  its 
methods.  A  hundred  thousand  school  children  took 
active  part  in  the  league's  competitions  during  the 
last  year.  For  example,  32,750  children  participated 
in  jumping  contests,  while  14,500  boys  competed  in 
'chinning;.'  and  80u0  in  class  running.  Thirty  thou- 
sand were  entered  in  the  various  field  day  games, 
at  which  3700  medals  auu  150  banners  were 
awarded. ' ' 


National  Licenses  for  Autos. 

If  the  plans  of  the  Federal  House  Committee  on 
Intel  state  Commerce  are  carried  out.  the  Congress 
will  pass  a  law  providing  for  a  Feueral  license"  fo.- 
all  automobiles.  Shouid  this  measure  be  passed,  it 
will  enable  an  automobile  to  pass  from  state  to 
state  without  tne  annoyance  of  procuring  a  new 
license  every  time  a  state  line  is  crossed.  The 
great  difficulty  in  the  way  o-  such  a  law  is  to 
have  one  drawn  that  will  not  be  declared  unconsti- 
tutional in  the  courts,  and  the  committee  is  now 
working  on  a  bill  with  that  end  in  view.  The  bill 
proposed  will  assume  to  license  the  owner  of  a  err 
in  any  state,  so  that  an  automobile  owner  will  not 
be  required  to  pay  a  license  in  every  state  through 
which  his  car  may  pass  en  tour. 

There  is  no  doubt  but  that  any  attempt  to  pass 
such  legislation  will  call  forth  vigorous  protests 
from  many  states,  including  California,  which  de- 
rive a  great  deal  of  revenue  from  automobile 
licenses.  Under  the  proposed  bill,  the  Federal 
Government  would  naturally  colledt  the  license, 
which  would  entitle  its  owner  to  traverse  any  part 
of  the  United  States  without  paying  additional 
license.  W  nether  the  Government  has  the  right  to 
take  such  licensing  power  from  the  several  states 
is,  of  course,  the  vital  point  with  which  the  com- 
mittee is  concerned,  and  upon  a  determination  of 
this  question  rests  the  fate  of  the  proposed  bill.

BEING  RAPIDLY   DEVELOPED. 

The  University  Farm  School,  conducted  by  the 
State  at  Davis,  Yolo  County,  will  complete  its 
second  year  this  month.  The  enrollment  during  the 
Fall  of  1910  has  been  77.  The  Farm  School  has  a 
regular  course  of  three  years  to  which  boys  are  ad- 
mitted who  are  at  least  fifteen  years  of  age  and 
have  completed  the  eighth  grade  of  the  grammar 
schools.  In  addition,  young  men  who  possess  simi- 
lar educational  qualifications  and  are  eighteen  years 
or  more  of  age  are  admitted  for  one  term  or  longer 
to  pursue  any  studies  in  the  curriculum  for  winch 
they  are  prepared. 

The  equipment  of  the  Farm  is  steadily  growing. 
It  is  now  a  little  more  than  four  years  since  the 
780  acres  were  purchased,  and  a  great  transforma- 
tion has  taken  place  upon  the  bare  grain  fields  of 
the  original  area.  The  first  buildings  were  erected

HOOH 


Feminine    World's    Fads    and    Fancies 


CONDUCTED    BY    MINNIE    ALICE    BEAUFAIT 


=TfHE  SEASON'S  GREETINGS,  WITH 
due  respect  to  the  mythical  Janus, 
in  whose  honor  our  glorious  New 
Year  received  its  name.  Though 
the  god  of  snow  and  iee  does  not 
rule  in  this  "land  of  the  setting 
sun, "  it  is  always  and  ever  the 
same,  and  doubtless  will  be  so. long 
as  time  lasts  and  this  old  world 
wags  round,  for  January  sounds 
cold,  and  cold  brings  thoughts  of 
suitable  clothing,  especially  in  the 
long    coat    line. 

The  Blanket  Polo,  full  length  coat  in  white,  with 
immense  outside  pockets,  is  decidedly  fetching  and 
conies  in  white  and  black  wool.  The  wide  ' '  sweater 
collar"  rolls  up  close  around  tne  ears,  or  folds  back 
as  desired.  Wide  belts  help  to  give  it  that  air  of 
snugness,  now  so  much  sought  after.  The  long, 
fur-trimmed  or  lined  motor  coats,  of  both  black 
and  white  broadcloth,  are  something  that  reaches 
way  down  into  the  pocketbook,  as  well  as  the  heart. 
Remember,  the  straight  silhouette  effects  are  quite 
the  thing  now,  as  shown  in  the  late  models  of 
some 

Evening  and  Afternoon  Gowns. 
Sheer  erepe-de-chine  and  chiffon  seem  to  lead  in 
materials  for  dancing  frocks,  evening  or  reception 
gowns.  Light  blue,  cream,  or  pure  white,  com- 
bined with  lace  for  yokes,  stocks,  short  or  long 
sleeves,  or  if  decolette,  sheer  lace  or  hand  em- 
broidered net  is  shirred  into  the  neck  instead  of 
the  regulation  yoke,  sometimes  in  the  low  Dutch 
effect,  the  "V"  or  square  neck.  Just  a  hint  of 
the  shirred  net  is  visible  when  the  "V"  or  square 
effect  is  used.  A  unique  design  had  a  wide  black 
velvet  band  of  about  twenty  inches  around  the 
bottom  of  "the  skirt,  which  just  cleared  the  floor, 
and  two  wide  flounces  of  messaline  above  the  black 
velvet,  with  a  folded  velvet  girdle  coming  up  to 
a  point  at  the  left  front,  and  a  shirred  rosette  at 
the  back.  Narrow  black  velvet  ribbon  edged  the 
low  square  neck  and  short  kimono  sleeves,  with  a 
row  of  tiny  chiffon  roses  and  leaves  on  the  waist 
below  the  velvet  ribbon. 

Atlantic  blue  chiffon  is  used  over  sea-shell  pink 
messaline,  with  hand  embroidered  net  yoke  and 
undersleeves,  with  the  messaline  undersleeves  ex- 
tending below  the  chiffon,  which  is  also  used  as 
girdle  and  bands  on  the  short  sleeves;  with  rows 
of  tiny  buttons  on  waist,  and  sleeves  over  the 
shoulders. 

Hand  embroidered  Crepe-Royal  with  a  round  lace 
yoke  beaded  in  the  Persian  effect,  makes  a  charm- 
ing afternoon  gown.  Any  delicate  shade  to  suit 
the  complexion  may  be  used.  Double  pleated  or 
shirred  flounces,  set  on  a  different  shade  of  messa- 
line, or  the  cream  chiffon  with  a  deep  Paisley 
border  at  the  bottom,  with  the  high  waistline, 
folded  girdles,  sash  ends  at  the  back,  or  just 
rosettes  of  the  Paisley  effects,  are  what  many. are 
wearing  now. 

Some  New  Wool  Challies 
and  other  fabrics  that  this  coming  season  will 
feature  are  even  now  being  displayed  in  the  shops. 
In  fact,  they  are  at  present  used  for  house  gowns, 
and  come  with  wide  borders  in  the  Paisley  and 
Persian  effects.  Some  are  wavy  with  small  white 
dots,  and  a  scroll  design  as  border.  The  white 
ground    with    white    dots,    has    the    Paisley   border.

Evening  Gown  of  Liberty  Satin  and  Chiffon, 
with  Demi-train. 
— Design  from  Coulter's,  Los  Angeles. 

Oriental  designs  with  delicate  colorings  are  beauti- 
ful for  the  house  as  kimonos,  either  long  or  short, 
or  fancy  dressing-sacks  in  the  shawl  style,  tied 
under  the  arms  with  narrow  ribbon,  about  No. 
5  or  7,  to  match.  French  flannels,  for  negligee,  in 
all  that  the  woru  implies,  are  correct. 

But  what  promises  to  be  a  boon  to  mothers  with 
growing  girls  is  a  new  fabric — "Visjella" — which 
comes  in  all  the  newest  delicate  shades  and  designs 
for  the  season,  including  plain  colors,  plaids  and 
stripes.  It  is  claimed  to  be  absolutely  unshrink- 
able and,  not  only  the  children  will  profit  by  it, 
but  it  is  used  for  negligee  wear,  shirt  waists,  and 
last,  but  not  least,  for  gentlemen's  soft  shirts.  It 
is  so  dainty  in  the  delicate  shades  and  stripes  that 
a  very  nice  garment  may  be  made  of  it,  and  the 
wearer  may  rest  assured  it  will  be  correct.  For 
golf  and  tennis  suits,  where  the  wear  should  be . 
considered  as  well  as  the  style,  it  will  be  the 
solving   of   many   knotty   problems. 

The  silk-mixed  organdy  is  another  dainty  fab- 
ric for  full  gowns  for  either  afternoon   receptions,

dancing  parties,  or  informal  "at-homes."  The  rose 
design  in  both  the  small  and  large  sprays  is  beauti- 
ful and  one  can  always  find  her  own  particular  idea 
to  work  out  in  such  goods,  as  they  come  in  nearly 
all  colors  on  a  white  ground. 

Now  for  Nifty  Models  in 
three-piece  street  suits.  Though  fully  exploited  in 
many  fashion  journals,  there  may  be  a  few  new 
ideas  for  midwinter  wear.  A  three-piece  rose  color 
Zibeline,  with  bands  of  same  piped  with  black 
satin  on  both  the  coat  and  skirt,  and  a  large  black 
satin  covered  button  to  finish  each  strap,  forms  a 
"V"  on  each  front  and  back  gore  of  the  skirt, 
and  on  the  front  and  back  of  the  coat. 

The  waist  may  be  of  chiffon,  net  or  messaline, 
with  hand  embroidered  net  in  squares  across  the 
front,  and  very  fine  val  lace  set  in  between. 
Kimono  short  or  three-quarter  sleeves  are  mostly 
used,  while  the  back  may  be  tucked  in  clusters  of 
pin  tucks,  either  from  the  neck  to  the  waist  line, 
or  if  a  yoke  is  set  in,  from  that  down.  Tiny 
crochetted  buttons  are  used  for  closing  at  the  back, 
and  as  trimming  on  the  front. 

Another  nifty  model  is  the  fur  trimmed  suit. 
The  rolling  collar  and  cuffs  are  edged  with  narrow 
bands  of  fur,  while  the  bottom  of  the  coat  is  also 
edged  with  fur.  The  skirt  may  be  either  a  plain 
"tube"  or  box-pleated  right  to  the  bottom,  and 
a  fur  band  to  finish,  or  about  a  twenty-inch  band 
with  the  narrow  fur  to  edge  the  top  of  it.  The 
waist  must  be  in  the  color  of  the  suit,  but  any  sheer 
material  may  be  used,  with  lace  yoke  and  stock, 
and  either  long  close-fitting  sleeves,  or  the  short 
kimono  style  with  lace  undersleeves.  A  tiny  fur 
band  edges  the  lace  yoke,  making  it  a  unique  and 
natty  costume.  A  rose  color  with  dark  fur  made 
in  the  above  mode  is  decidedly  striking.  The  close- 
fitting  skirts  continue  in  vogue,  and  though  not  so 
easy  to  walk  in,  we  will  have  to  submit  to  the 
mandates  of  fashion,  and  humbly  bow  our  heads 
and  bend  our  knees — where  we  can — to  the  inevit- 
able, and  as  they  seem  to  have  at  least  two 
good  (?)  points — economy  and  novelty — we  will  go 
a-haymg,  and  so  forth,  and  save  up  our  extra  coin 
for  the  other  extreme,  which  is  sure  to  follow  in 
the  wake  of  *  this  fad,  so  be  ready  to  catch  it  on 
the  rebound. 

Black  and  gray  mixture  in  boucle  (that  is  French 
and  is  pronounced  boo-ca)  is  a  pretty  weave  and 
makes  up  beautifully  with  black  satin,  for  deep 
rolling  collar  and  cuffs,  and  bone  buttons  for  clos- 
ing the  coat.  The  skirt  is  about  two  or  two  and 
one-half  yards,  and  either  plain  or  box-pleated  to 
within  a  foot  of  the  bottom.  Finished  with  a  wide 
band  of  the  black  satin  that  only  comes  to  the 
front  breadth,  and  rather  small  bone  buttons  to 
trim  each  side  of  the  band  at  the  front,  it  is  a  natty 
model.  The  waist  must  be  of  gray  soft  silk  with 
either  a  pin  stripe  or  tiny  black  figures.  Hand 
embroidered  net  seems  to  lead  in  material  for  yokes 
and  stocks.  Kimono  sleeves  are  still  about  all  that 
are  displayed  now,  though  Fashion's  devotees  are 
expecting  something  quite  different  and  racy  for 
early   spring. 

Headgear  and  Footwear, 
with  many  other  accesories,  naturally  are  included

in  hit  general  make  up.  The  Large  hat  is  now 
reallj  more  in  Cavor,  though  many  Fur  turbans  and 
silk  folded  ones  will   be  worn   till  the  spring  styles

t  ion    tourmaline   settings. 

A.s  velvet  takes  the  lead  in  late  models  in  suits 
and  gowns,  we  find  that  velvet  footwear  is  also  in 
the  lead.  For  both  i  he  high  button  ot  low  pump 
ii  is  eorreel  and  natty.  The  twelve  and  fourteen 
button  boot,  with  high  euban  heelj  circular  vamp 
and  round  toe,  is  aow  the  latest.  The  brown,  as 
well  as  black  velvet,  is  also  snown  in  late  models. 
The  four-strap  high  sandals  for  street  wear  are 
worn  with  lace  hose  and  look  chic  on  a  dainty  miss. 
They  come  in  patent,  dull  leather,  or  Buede,  and 
some  are  beaded  to  match  the  coloi  of  tin'  shoe. 
For  heavy  people,  or  those  who  are  troubled  with 
tired  feet,  there  is  a  new  make  shaped  like  the 
foot,  and  tli"  way  the  heel  is  adjusted  causes  an 
equal  weight  on  the  entire  sole. 

The  inner  man  should  deserve  a  little  attention, 
in   onicr  that   we  may  the   better  shine  in   all  our 
glory,  so  will  add  a   few  timely  recipes: 
Nut  Roast. 

Two  cups  of  stale  bread  crumbs,  one  cup  of 
chopped  nuts,  two  eggs,  and  water  enough  to  soals 
Dp  the  crumbs  and  nuts;  a  little  sage  and  finely 
.■hop pod  onion,  with  .salt  and  pepper  to  suit  the 
taste.  Bake  about  an  hour  or  a  little  less  in  a 
moderate    oven. 

Hocks. 

One  cup  of  butter,  one  and  one-half  cups  of 
sugar,  three  eggs,  one  level  teaspoon  of  soda,  one 
and  one-half  tablespoons  of  hot  water,  three  cups 
of  flour,  one  half  cup  of  currants,  one  cup  of  chopped 
walnuts,  one-half  tablespoon  salt,  one-half  teaspoon 
of  cinnamon,  one  teaspoon  of  allspice.  Cream 
butter  and  sugar  and  add  the  en^s  well  beaten; 
dissolve  the  soda  in  water;  take  half  of  the  flour 
and  mix  well  with  salt  and  cinnamon,  then  add  the 
nuts   and    fruit    and    the    remaining   flour.      Drop    by 

sj nfuls,  an    inch   apart,  on   buttered  dripping-pan

CHRISTMAS  MORN. 
Ring,  joyous  bells,  ring  loud  and  long, 
"Pis  Christmas  Day,  the  Lord  is  bom. 
On  that  wondrous,  glorious  night. 
The  Star  of  Bethlehem  shown  b'-ight; 
The  lowing  kine  bent  humble  knee; — 
The  Lord  was  born  in  Galilee. 

Triumphant   bells,   ring  ye   with   praise, 
The   Christ,   the   Lord,    hath    come    to    raise. 
Let  all   our  grief  forgotten  be, 
Sing  every  heart  in  jubilee. 
'Tis  Christmas  Tide,  and  Love  is  here, 
Rejoice,    rejoice,    and    banish    fear. 

Ye    Christmas   bells,    O    music,    sweet; 
Let    Love  and  Gladness  be  complete; 

Faith    lie    steadfast.    Love    be    true 
As  gleaming  depths  of  ocean's  blue. 
The    Lord    is   here,   a   Savior   born, 
Glory  be   to   God,   on   this  bright  morn. 

'Tis   the   promised    day,   to    hope   divine, 
Of   faith,    and   bliss,    and   life    sublime. 
The  sky  bends  o'er,  in  azure  blue, 
The    sun   takes   on    his   golden    hue. 
Praise  ye   Our  Father's  tenderest   love, 
Then  raise  to   Him  our  souls  above. 

A    happy   Christmas,   one  and   all! 
May  all   be  blessed;   sweet   voices  call; 
Rose  leaves   fall   o  'er  each   path ; 
Friendships    scatter    every    wrath. 
Praise    God.    and    raise    our    souls    above. 
For    Christ    is    here,    and    He    is    Love.

J  MA  T  E U  R 


Dramatic— Musical 


PROFESSIONAL 


^7  GREAT  DEAL  OP  INTEREST  HAS 


been  awakened  in  California  since 
the  announcement  that  Maestro 
Puccini,  the  Italian  composer,  had 
set  to  music  David  Belasco's  "Girl 
of  the  Golden  West,5'  a  California 
romance.  The  music  drama  made 
its  initial  appearance  before  an 
audience  in  the  Metropolitan  Opera 
House,  New  York,  December  10th 
and  was  enthusiastically  received. 
In  writing  of  the  final  dress  re- 
hearsal, in  which  he  marvels  at  Puccini's  being 
able  so  vividly  to  express  the  spirit  and  life  of 
California 's  days  of  forty-nine  without  ever  hav- 
ing visited  the  State,  Colgate  Baker,  in  the  New 
York  Review,  says:  "David  Belasco  appeared  to 
be  in  a  state  bordering  upon  delirium.  He  had 
good  reason  to  be,  for  his  play  is  dwarfed  into 
insignificance  by  Puccini's  score.  There  is  more 
of  the  real  California  in  the  music  that  Puccini  has 
written  than  there  is  in  all  the  plays  ever  written 
about  the  Golden  State.  We  have  had  Bret  Harte, 
and  a  host  of  imitators;  Frank  Norris,  Richard 
Walton  Tully  and  others,  giving  us  pen  pictures  of 
California  life,  vivid  and  true,  but  they  have  never 
done  more  than  scratch  the  surface.  It  has  re- 
mained for  an  Italian  musical  genius,  a  man  who 
has  never  set  foot  on  the  soil  of  the  State,  to 
divine  the  soul  of  California,  and  express  it  in 
music,  how  wonderful. 

"It  seemed  to  me  that  this  music  must  have  been 
born  under  the  branches  of  the  redwoods,  on  the 
slopes  of  the  Sierra  Nevadas,  within  sight  of  the 
vineyards  and  the  orange  groves  and  the  blue 
Pacific.  It  is  redolent  of  the  soil,  more  descriptive 
than  the  advertising  matter  of  the  Southern  Pacific 
passenger  department,  more  appealing  than  the 
sonnets  of  George  Stirling,  more  wistful  than  the 
impressionistic  paintings  of  Charles  Rollo  Peters, 
more  characteristic  than  all.  The  days  of  old,  the 
days  of  gold,  the  days  of  'forty-nine  gave  birth 
to  the  California  spirit.  You  cannot  define  it  and 
you  cannot  paint  it,  but  Maestro  Puccini  shows  that 
it  can  be  expressed  in  music  in  all  the  glory  of 
its  romance,  its  barbarity,  its  dare  of  death  and 
reckless  prodigality. " 

Puccini's  secret  of  success  is  found  in  his  own 
words,  as  given  to  his  interviewer:  "The  Cali- 
fornia writers  have  thought  too  much  about  the 
people  who  were  but  a  passing  element.  Genera- 
tions come  and  go,  but  the  mountains  endure,  the 
snow  falls  every  winter,  the  trees  bud  again  in 
spring.  There  is  always  nature,  ever  changing  but 
the  same.  Yes,  all  things  in  us,  every  thought, 
every  inspiration  we  have,  comes  from  nature. 
Music  especially  goes  back  to  nature.  To  write 
music  we  must  be  close  to  the  heart  of  things — 
the  woods,  the  sea,  the  mountains.  When  I  first 
decided  to  write  music  to  'The  Girl  of  the  Golden 
West '  I  did  contemplate  -  taking  a  trip  to  Cali- 
fornia and  devoting  some  years  to  studying  the 
people  and  the  country,  but  when  I  came  to  the 
final  analysis  of  my  task  I  decided  that  this  would 
be  an   utterly  futile  thing  to   do. 

"In  the  first  place,  the  California  of  today,  while 
it  may  be  the  same  in  spirit,  is  not  the  same  on 
the  surface  as  it  was  in  1849.  Then  I  considered 
what  California  was  in  those  days  of  '49 — it  was 
a  wilderness  with  a  few  mining  camps  and  ranches 
scattered    here    and   there.      In    these    camps    there

was  no  distinctive  national  life.  The  men  "came 
from  all  parts  of  the  world;  they  were  typical 
fortune  hunters  and  adventurers.  The  big  thing 
was  not  the  men.  but  the  wilderness  of  mountain 
and  forest  about  them.  So  I  asked  myself,  why 
should  I  go  to  California  to  study  mountain  and 
forest?  Have  we  not  mountain  and  forest  in  plenty 
in  northern  Italy,  near  my  home?  Do  we  not 
grow  orange  and  olive  on  the  mountain  foothills 
and  cultivate  vines  just  as  they  do  in  California? 
What  I  needed  to  get  into  my  music  was  the 
wilderness.  I  went  into  it.  I  left  my  home  with 
a  gun  and  a  blanket  and  marched  off  into  the  moun- 
tains and  stayed  there.     It  took  about  three  years 


A    Girl    of    the    Golden    West. 


to  compose  *  The  Girl  of  the  Golden  "West, '  and 
eight  months  of  each  year  I  spent  in  the  moun- 
tains and  forest.  I  had  my  rifle  and  a  fowling 
piece.  I  got  a  few  ducks  now  and  then;  some- 
times a  chamois,  but  I  am  not  a  strenuous  hunter. 
I  hunt  for  the  psychological  effect  of  the  sport,  not 
to  kill  things.  I  believe  that  we  should  kill  just 
enough  to  eat,  no  more.  However,  all  the  time  the 
music  is  growing;  the  music  of  the  mountains  and 
the  forest.  The  Italian  Alps  are  the  Sierras  to  me; 
the  pine  trees  are  redwoods,  the  peasants  are 
Indians,  the  Girl  is  some  dark-eyed  senorita  of 
the  mountains.  We  have  them  in  Italy  as  well  as 
in    California. ' ' 

So  at  last  we  have  an  American  grand  opera,  with 
California — its  history  and  its  beauties — as  the 
foundation.

12S6    MARKET  ST..    SAN  FRANCISCO,  CAL. 

WHY?  Because  it  publishes  in  San  Francisco, 
Gallagher  -  Marsh  Shorthand  System,  the  most 
highly  improved  Pitmanic  Shorthand  System  in 
existence,  and  which  is  indorsed  by  the  Home  In- 
dustry League  of  California  as  follows  : 

"Whereas, the  Gallagher-  Marsh  Shorthand  Sys- 
tem is  a  San  Francisco  production,  the  text  books 
of  which  are  compiled,  printed  and  bound  in  San 
Francisco;  and 

"Whereas,  all  the  testimony  of  experts  that  this 
League  has  been  able  to  obtain  proves  beyond  the 
question  of  a  doubt  that  it  is  the  most  modern 
system  in  existence  and  that  it  is  adequate  in 
the  broadest  sense  of  the  term;  and 
********** 

Be  it  further  Resolved:  That  it  is  the  unanimous  opinion 
of  the  members  of  this  League,  that  the  Board  of  Education, 
and  all  other  educational  institutions  of  California,  should 
adopt  and  use  the  Gallagher-Marsh  system,  together  with  its 
text  books;  ahd 

Be  it  further  Resolved:  That  this  League  earnestly  recom- 
mends to  its  members  that  they  give  preference  to  Gallagher- 
Marsh  shorthand  writers  in  selecting  office  help  in  the  encour- 
agement of  home  industry." 

In  selecting  a  business  college  to  attend  for  the  purpose  of 
learning  shorthand,  typing  and  bookkeeping,  the  first  consid- 
eration should  be  proficiency,  and  next,  a  good  position  where 
opportunities  exist  for  advancement.  The  business  people  of 
California  say  in  unmistakable  language  to  the  students  of 
California  that  they  should  study  our  California  Shorthand 
System,  Gallagher-Marsh,  to  encourage  home  industry,  if 
they  expect  positions  in  their  offices.  A  hint  to  the  wise  is 
sufficient.  Attend  Gallagher- Marsh  Business  College  and 
study  the  shorthand  system  recommended  by  the  members  of 
the  Home  Industry  League  of  California  and  then  you  are  sure 
of  a  good  position.     Don't  take  any  chances.

(CONDUCTED  BY  CALVERT  WILSON,  PRESIDENT  LOS  ANGELES  CHAMBER  OF  MINES.) 


-,  NDER  THE  CAPTION,  "MINES 
Are  Made,  Not  Found,"  the  Salt 
Lake  Mining  Review  of  a  recent  date 
has  the  following  timely  editorial: 
"Contrary  to  the  belief  of  the  pub- 
lie  in  general,  mines  are  made,  not 
found.  Dame  Nature  is  very  firm, 
very  exacting  on  this  point,  and  re- 
fuses to  deal  in  'ready  made'  pro- 
ducers or  'hand-me-down'  bonanzas, 
demanding  from  the  prospector  and 
miner,    in    exchange    for    her    gifts, 


that  a  certain  amount  of  honest  toil  be  expended 
before  the  keys  to 'her  treasure  vaults  are  handed 
over,  unreservedly,  to  the  searcher  for  mineral 
wealth  galore.  And,  as  a  matter  of  fact,  if  the 
search  for  the  precious  metals  were  unattended  by 
hard  labor,  the  expenditure  of  money  and  by 
strenuous  exertion,  and  mines  were  to  be  found 
'ready-made,'  gold  and  silver,  because  of  over-pro- 
duction and  supply,  would  cease  to  have  any  in- 
trinsic value,  aside  from  a  commodity  value  such 
as  regulates  the  market  price  of  iron  and  copper; 
the  scarcity  of  the  precious  metals  and  the  hard- 
ships and  toil  involved  in  their  discovery  and  re- 
covery being  the  main  factor  which  enables  them 
to  maintain  their  exalted  position  throughout  the 
world  as  money  metals.  If  mines  were  found  and 
all  that  the  lucky  finder  had  to  do  was  to  shovel 
out  $20-gold  pieces,  the  discovery  would  really  be 
of  but  little  value.  But  the  mining  man  never  looks 
for  a  'ready-made'  bonanza.  It  is  the  prospect  that 
first  attracts  his  attention.  The  mineral-stained  rift 
in  the  rock  attracts  his  observant  eye;  the  bold 
outcrop  suggests  the  existence  of  the  big  ore  bodies 
below.  The  float  on  the  hillside  leads  him  to  the 
vein  further  up  the  mountain,  and  the  blossom  on 
the  rocks  is  an  indication  to  him  that  the  ground 
in  that  locality  is  mineral-bearing.  Here  he  has 
the  making  of  a  mine.  He  has  found  a  good  pros- 
pect; but,  he  must  make  the  mine. 

"Te  begin  with,  he  starts  a  tunnel  or  shaft;  he 
makes  an  open  cut,  or  strips  the  vein  at  intervals 
along  the  surface.  In  the  performance  of  this  work 
he  has  made  a  beginning.  Gathering  up  his  sam- 
ples of  vein  matter  or  ore,  he  seeks  the  valley, 
.where  tests  for  values  are  made  by  fire.  If  the 
showing  is  such  as  to  warrant  further  exploitation, 
arrangements  are  made  and  perfected  for  a  con- 
tinuance of  work.  Supplies  are  laid  in,  tools  are 
provided;  a  few  friends  and  acquaintances  are 
interested  in  the  enterprise,  and  all  chip  in  their 
little  mite  for  the  development  of  the  prospect. 
Cabins  and  blacksmith  shop  are  built,  and,  when 
all  is  ready,  two  or  three  men  begin  their  arduous 
work.  From  sun-up  to  sun-down  they  pound  the 
drill,  push  the  wheelbarrow  and  work  at  the  forge, 
and.  after  working  all  day,  do  their  own  cooking, 
their  makeshift  at  housekeeping,  and  attend  to  in- 
numerable duties  around  camp.  Courage  and  hope 
is  ever  within  their  breasts.  For  months  they  toil 
away,  believing  that  every  shift,  every  shot,  will 
reveal  to  them  the  treasure  for  which  they  are  seek- 
ing. If  the  prospect  is  as  good  as  the  surface  show- 
ings would  indicate,  ore  bodies  are  finally  un- 
covered. Here  new  difficulties  arise.  The  mine, 
perchance,  is  inaccessible  from  the  outside  world. 
Trails  and  wagon  roads  must  be  built.  Shipments 
to  the  market  could  be  made,  but  the  embryo  mine 
is  not  sufficiently  developed  to  maintain  regular 
or  heavy  shipments,  and  the  profits  from  small  and 
irregular  consignments  are  about  eaten  up  by  heavy 
freight  and  smelter  charges.  More  help  must  be 
secured  and  more  capital  must  be  put  into  the 
enterprise  before  it  can  be  listed  as  a  financial  suc- 
cess. The  windlass  and  horse  whim  must  give  way 
to  more  heavy  equipment.  Hand  drilling  is  slow 
and  steam  power  is  needed,  wtih  compressor  and 
drills.  A  point  has  been  reached  in  the  develop- 
ment of  the  property  where  primitive  methods  must 
give  way  to  more  advanced  ideas  in  mining  opera- 
tions, for  the  owners  have  the  making  of  a  mine, 
but  not  a  mine  as  yet.     Here  is  where  the  investor 


the  capitalist,  the  syndicate  step  in.  They  buy  the 
prospect  for  $25,000,  $40,000,  $50,000,  $75,000  or 
$100,000,  according  to  indicated  value.  The  small 
miner  and  prospector  is  satisfied.  He  has  made  a 
'pile'  that  looks  good  to  him.  The  newcomers, 
either  from  their  own  resources,  or  from  the  sale 
of  treasury  stock,  begin  the  development  of  the 
property  on  a  more  extensive  scale.  The  prospect 
is  equipped  with  the  necessary  machinery.  Shafts 
are  sunk  to  the  deep,  tunnels  are  run  a  long  way 
into  the  mountain.  Winzes  are  sunk,  upraises  are 
made,  and  drifts  are  run  until  the  whole  property 
is  honey-combed,  and  ore  bodies  are  blocked  out  and. 
room  made  so  that  a  small  army  of  men  can  be 
employed  in  ore  extraction.  When  this  is  done, 
when  thousands  of  dollars  have  been  expended  in 
development  and  equipment,  then  the  mine  is  made; 
a  mine  that  has  millions  in  sight  in  its  workings, 
and  a  mine  that  will  be  able  to  maintain  an  out- 
put of  hundreds  of  tons  daily,  and  a  mine  that  will 
be  able  to  pay  regular  monthly  dividends  to  owners 
and  stockholders  until  the  profits  have  run  up  into 
the  millions.  This  is  a  mine,  but  it  is  a  made  mine, 
and  all  of  our  great  dividend-payers  have  passed 
through  this  transformation,  from  a  prospect  to  a 
producer,  before  they  were  able  to  make  mil- 
lionaires out  of  their  owners." 


Rich  Strike  in  Humboldt. 
What  bids  fair  to  be  one  of  the  most  important 
gold  strikes  in  the  history  of  Humboldt  County, 
was  made  a  few  days  ago  at  the  new  camp  of  Oro, 
on  the  Oro  No.  2  claim.  Some  weeks  ago  Dutch 
Flat  operators  located  several  claims  four  miles 
south  of  the  old  camp,  and  in  prospecting  on  the 
claim  mentioned  discovered  a  four-foot  ledge.  The 
samples  taken  out  are  free  milling  and  rich,  as  the 
gold  can  be  seen  with  the  naked  eye.  Although 
the  camp  is  less  than  two  weeks  old,  a  large  num- 
ber of  claims  have  been  staked,  upon  which  the 
location  work  is  being  performed. 


Amador  County's  Sandstone   Quarry. 

According  to  the  lone  Valley  Echo,  Amador 
County  has  a  sandstone  quarry  whose  product  is 
equal  to  any  in  the  world.  Both  white  and  red 
sandstone  are  mined,  and  an  analysis  of  the  two 
stones,  with  practical  test  of  their  resistent  quali- 
ties, show  that  they  will  withstand  immense  pres- 
sure, equal  to  the  heaviest  buildings.  The  white 
stone  has  the  distinction  of  being  the  only  pure 
white  sandstone  being  quarried  in  this  State.  Many 
business  buildings  in  Northern  and  Central  Cali- 
fornia have  been  constructed  of  the  red  stone,  and 
the  white  has  been  used  for  mantels  and  entrances 
in  several  others  and  also  in  the  construction  of 
many  residences. 

As  an  indication  of  the  extent  of  this  valuable, 
asset  of  the  county,  the  Echo  says  that,  that  part 
of  the  white  ledge  now  uncovered  and  in  sight  on 
the  point  of  the  hill  is  15  feet  wide,  40  feet  deep 
and  1010  feet  long,  exposing  about  200,000  tons  of 
white  stone.  This  can  be  taken  out  in  blocks  of 
forty  feet  long  and  ten  feet  square,  without  a 
blemish.  The  stone  is  fireproof  and  waterproof, 
containing  no  lime. 


Coram  Smelter  Again  Closed. 
Some    time    ago    the    Government    compelled    the 


closing  down  of  the  big  smelter  at  Coram,  Shasta 
County,  for  the  reason  that  sulphur  fumes  from  the 
plant  destroyed  all  vegetation,  and  was  working 
untold  injury  to  the  fruit-growers  of  that  section. 
The  Balaklala  Company,  operating  the  smelter,  in- 
stalled the  Cottrell  process  of  fume  consumption  to 
remove  all  objections  on  the  part  of  the  Govern- 
ment and  fruit-growers,  but  it  appears  the  attempt 
has  been  a  failure.  The  Anderson  Valley  News 
says  that  at  a  meeting  of  the  Shasta  County 
Farmers'  Protective  Association  held  in  Ander- 
son, December  10th,  which  was  largely  attended, 
considerable  dissatisfaction  was  shown  by  many 
of  the  members  in  regard  to  the  Cottrell  process 
which  has  been  installed  by  the  Balaklala  Copper 
Company  at  Coram,  and  a  resolution  was  adopted 
demanding  that  the  company  "no  longer  operate 
its  smelter  at  Coram  except  in  strict  conformity 
with  the  decree  entered  in  the  United  States  Cir- 
cuit Court,  Northern  District  of  California,  on 
July  8,  1910."  A  copy  of  the  resolution  was  mailed 
to  the  company  immediately. 

After  hearing  the  complaint  of  the  fruit-growers, 
a  representative  of  the  company  asked  for  an  ex- 
tension of  time  to  perfect  the  Cottrell  device,  and 
keep  the  furnaces  going.  The  farmers  insisted  upon 
enforcement  of  the  decree,  and  consequently  the 
big  plant  was  shut  down.  It  will  remain  idle  four 
or  five  weeks,  and  in  the  interim  an  attempt  will 
be  made  to  so  perfect  the  fume-consuming  device 
as  to  necessitate  no  further  unfavorable  action  on 
the  part  of  those  whose  property  interests  are  at 
stake. 


Oil  and  Coal  in  California. 

According  to  the  report  of  the  United  States  Geo- 
logical Survey  regarding  coal-mining  states,  ' '  The 
development  of  bituminous  coal  properties  in  Monte- 
rey and  San  Benito  Counties,  California,  has  been 
retarded  by  an  enormous  increase  in  the  production 
of  petroleum,  which  has  practically  elimiated  coal 
as  a  steam-raising  fuel  in  that  State.  The  produc- 
tion of  crude  petroleum  increased  from  33,098,598 
barrels  in  1906,  to  54,433,010  barrels  in  1909.  By 
far  the  larger  part  of  this  product  is  used  as  fuel 
and,  estimating  three  and  one-half  barrels  of  oil 
as  equivalent  in  efficiency  to  a  ton  of  coal,  the 
total  production  of  California  petroleum  in  1909 
was  equivalent  to  more  than  15,500,000  tons  of 
bituminous  coal.  The  State's  petroleum  production 
in  1909  was  larger  than  the  entire  output  of  the 
United  States  in  any  year  prior  to  1896." 

As  to  coal,  the  report  says  that  "the  total  pro- 
duction of  coal  in  California  in  1909  was  45.S36 
short  tons,  having  a  spot  value  of  $95,042,  an 
increase  of  27,081  tons,  or  144  per  cent  in  quantity 
and  of  $54,S40,  or  73  per  cent,  in  value  from  1908, 
a  larger  percentage  of  increase  than  was  shown  by 
any  other  state  in  the  Union." 

A  large  percentage  of  the  coal  is  mined  in 
Monterey  County,  while  Amador  and  Riverside 
Counties  help  to  make  up  the  output. 


Big  Strike  in  Sierra  County. 
News  comes  from  the  mining  city  of  Sierra  City, 
Sierra  County,  to  the  effect  that  one  of  the  most 
important  gold  strikes  that  has  been  made  for 
years  has  just  been  made  by  the  firm  of  Miller  & 
Westal,  one  mile  west  of  Loganville  and  500  feet

EARLY  DAY  STORY  OF  LOSS 

OF  CHEST  OF  GOLD  RECALLED. 
(Redding    Courier    Fress    Press,    Dec.    2nd.) 

The  finding  of  a  $10  gold  piece  of  1849,  in  one  of 
his  sluice  boxes,  by  William  Diestelhorst,  who  is 
dredging  with  a  dip  bucket  on  Clear  Creek,  recalls 
to  old-timers  the  tale  of  the  loss  in  that  vicinity 
of  a  chest  containing  $40,000,  and  so  far  as  known, 
the  solitary  gold  piece  referred  to  is  the  only  one 
obtained  in  all  these  years.  It  is  stated,  and  while 
almost  legendary  is  regarded  as  an  actuality,  that 
a  band  of  Mormons,  on  crossing  Clear  Creek,  in  the 
vicinity  of  Horsetown,  when  the  stream  was  run- 
ning high,  lost  from  the  tailboard  of  their  wagon 
a  chest  containing  $40,000  in  gold  pieces,  and  owing 
ti>  the  state  of  the  creek  it  was  impossible  then  to 
recover  any  of  the  treasure,  and  in  the  following 
spring,  when  efforts  were  made  towards  the  same 
end,  all  trace  of  the  ford  was  gone  and  thousands 
of  yards  of  gravel,  sand  and  rock  had  flowed  on 
over  the   vicinity. 

Diestelhorst,  who  mined  in  the  Sacramento  River, 
moved  onto  Clear  Creek  a  decade  or  more  ago  and 
has  diligently  dredged,  with  generally  good  results, 
but  he  is  redoubling  his  energies  since  the  dis- 
eovery  of  the  $10  piece.  Wednesday  of  this  week 
the  dredge  operator  called  on  McCoy  Fitzgerald, 
who  owns  the  ranch  below  the  Horsetown  placer 
field,  to  pay  a  hay  bill  and  proffered  the  $10  piece, 
remarking  on  its  unique  history.  Fitzgerald  told 
1  diestelhorst  that  he  would  accept  the  coin,  but 
also  suggested  that  it  was  worth  more  than  $10. 
Diestelhorst  was  satisfied  to  pay  his  bill  as  origi- 
nally arranged,  and  did  so.  When  Mr.  Fitzgerald 
came  to  Redding  and  displayed  the  beautifully 
chaste  piece  of  early  California  coinage,  he  was 
promptly  ottered  by  one  man  $25  for  it  and  by 
another  $50. 

In  the  early  days  of  California,  it  may  be  news  to 
many  of  our  readers  to  know  that,  there  being  no 
mint  in  the  State,  Government  assayers  coined  the 
gold  money  and  upon  each  piece'  the  assayer  who 
coined  it,  placed  his  initials.  The  coin  in  the  pos- 
session of  Mr.  Fitzgerald  bears  the  initials  "S.  M. 
V."  and  around  the  rim  is  printed  "California 
gold."     The  piece  is  very  chaste,  and  having  little, 


H   :ui\   alloy   hi   it,  remains  the  dull  yellow  color  so 
peculiar  to  t  lie  gold  of  I  ins  State.

Ileabi's  Business  College  was  organized   in  1863. 

It   is   mor.e   than    ever   the   leading   business   college 

on  the  Coast.     It  has  been  advancing  since  the  fire, 

from  one  school  in  San  Francisco,  to  twelve  schools 

in  twelve  cities  of  California  and  Nevada. 

One  line  of  work  was  taught  when  the  school 
was  opened — Bookkeeping,  Commercial  Artihmetic, 
Penmanship  and  Spelling  being  the  studies.  Now 
the  school  boasts  of  seventeen  departments,  each 
leading  to  profitable  employment — Shorthand,  Typ-

Strong  Protest  Filed  Account 
Discrimination  Against  Building  Materials 


N  ACCORDANCE  WITH  CONCLU- 
sions  reached  at  a  reeeut  conference 
of  the  advocates  of  promoting 
home  industries  of  California,  State 
Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury  has 
mailed  to  the  President  of  the 
United  States  a  strong  protest 
against  the  discriminations  unfavor- 
able to  California  that  have  been 
made  by  the  supervising  architect 
of  the  Federal  Treasury  Department. 
The  California  congressional  delega- 
tion has  also  been  addressed  personally,  and  the 
individual  members  have  been  requested  to  call 
upon  the  President  in  a  body,  that  the  cause  of 
the  State  may  be  presented  as  ably  as  possible. 
The  Home  Industry  League  of  California  is  co- 
operating with  the  State  Mineralogist  in  the  fight 
to  have  California  structural  materials  used  in  the 
construction  of  Federal  buildings  in  this  State,  in 
preference  to  those  produced  elsewhere. 

In  Aubury 's  letter  to  President  Taft,  words  are 
not  minced.  Accusations  are  made  against  the 
supervising  architect,  and  an  offer  is  made  to  fur- 
nish the  President  specific  facts  in  support  of  each 
and  every  allegation  of  a  general  sort  relating  to 
the  supervising  architect's  discrimination  against 
this  State  in  the  preparation  of  plans  and  specifi- 
cations for  the  Los  Angeles  postoffice,  Santa  Cruz 
postoffiee,  Santa  Rosa  Federal  Building,  San  Fran- 
eisco  postoffice,  and  also  concerning  work  at  Mare

California  cement  had  no  chance  to  compete  in  a 
large  work.     The  letter  says,  in  part: 

' '  California  produces  a  great  variety  of  building 
and  structural  materials,  the  use  of  which  in  large 
buildings  constructed  by  the  State  of  California 
and  by  the  expenditure  of  individual  capital,  has 
been  approved  by  time  and  long  experience.  Their 
fitness  for  use,  the  durability  of  the  same,  their  com- 
parative cheapness,  their  beauty  and  large  variety, 
their  nearness  to  all  important  points  wliere  costly 
construction  has  taken  place,  and  the  fact  that  not 
only  this  State,  but  the  entire  United  States,  is 
interested  in  building  up  on  the  western  seaboard 
of  our  common  country  a  self-supporting  and 
populous  commonwealth,  are  all  conditions  ger- 
mane to  the  consideration  of  the  best  public 
good.     *     *     * 

"While  California  has  abundant  building  mate- 
rials, of  mineral  origin,  in  its  own  borders  and  a 
skilled  population  fully  competent  to  develop  native 
resources — and  capital  in  the  hands  of  enterprising 
men,  who  patriotically  desire  to  subserve  the  pub- 
lic welfare  by  building  up  home  industries,  it  is 
a  fact  that  large  quantities  of  material  for  use  in 
the  construction  of  Federal  buildings  in  this  State, 
have  been  shipped  into  California  from  abroad,  in- 
volving large  transportation  costs  whieh  were  un- 
necessary. Specifications  and  plans  have  proceeded 
from  the  office  of  the  supervising  architect  of  the 
Treasury  Department,  so  drawn  as  to  preclude  the 
possibility  of  competition  on  the  part  of  California 
in  the  matter  of  furnishing  materials  produced  at 
home.  This  has  not  only  resulted  in  direct  finan- 
cial loss  to  this  State,  for  the  benefit  of  individual 
producers  situated  thousands  of  miles'  distant,  and 
possibly  for  the  benefit  of  transportation  lines,  but 
it  has  seriously  discredited  the  just  claims  made  in 
behalf  of  California  structural  materials,  and  so 
has  discouraged  the  incoming  of  capital  from 
abroad,  and  the  encouragement  of  home  industries 
that  have  public,  as  well  as  private  reasons  for 
existence  and  continuance. 

"California  is  situated  far  remote  from  the 
Eastern  centers  of  wealth  and  population,"  and 
"*  •  *  is  compelled  to  make  its  resources  konwn 
through  publications,  in  which  the  facts  are  officially 
and  reliably  recorded.  Such  publications  have  been 
productive  of  good.  Their  value  is  minimized  and 
the  field  of  California  industries  is  measurably  cir- 
cumscribed by  the  useless  and  persistent  discredit 
unjustly  brought  upon  them  by  the  unjust  and 
unnecessary  acts  of  the  supervising  architect  of  the 
Treasury  Department. 
*********** 

"Specific  instances  relating  to  discriminations 
against  California  by  the  supervising  architect  of 
the  Treasury  Department  are  not  lacking.  *  *  * 
Details  will  be  furnished  in  relation  to  each  and 
every  one  of  the  instances  mentioned.  *  *  * 
The  matter  has  excited  wide  interest  and  general 
protest  in  California,  it  appearing  that  no  remedy 
can  be  reached  by  simply  appealing  to  the  super- 
vising  architect. ' ' 


To  Purchase  New  Building  Site. 

At  a  special  meeting  of  the  stockholders  of  the 
Native  Sons  Hall  Association  of  Sacramento,  it  was 
decided  to  sell  the  80x160  Tot  owned  by  the  associa- 
tion on  K  street,  between  Eleventh  and  Twelfth, 
and  purchase  a  corner  60x160  lot  on  Eleventh  and 
J  streets.  It  is  hoped  to  begin  building  operations 
early  in  the  spring. 

There  is  much  interest  displayed  by  the  members 
of  both  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  Par- 
lars  in  the  Capital  City,  and  stock  in  the  proposed 
structure  is  being  rapidly  disposed  of. 

The  report  of  Secretary  P.  G.  "West,  for  the  year 
ending    October    31st,    shows    that    of    the    $75,000 


authorized  capitalization,  $36,000  has  been  sub 
scribed  and  $19,800  fully  paid.  This  is  accounted 
for  from  the  fact  that  stock  is  sold  at  $100  per 
share,  payable  in  monthly  installments  of  $2.50. 
Estimating  the  association's  property  on  K  street, 
which  is  fully  paid  for,  as  worth  $50,000,  the  assets 
amount  to  $72,483. 4S,  of  which  $15,059.68  is  cash 
in   bank. 


Work  on  San  Francisco  Hall  Began. 

Workmen  are  now  actually  engaged  in  the  erec- 
tion of  the  cement  foundation  and  steel  work  for 
the  handsome  Native  Sons'  Temple  to  be  erected 
in  San  Francisco,  and  the  contracts  entered  into 
for  those  portions  of  the  building  construction  call 
for  their  completion  about  April  1st.  The  delay  in 
active  constructive  work  has  worked  no  harm  to  the 
hall  association — on  the  contrary,  the  drop  in  price 
of  steel  has  more  than  compensated  for  the  loss  in 
rents,  etc. 

The  cornerstone  of  the  new  building,  which  is 
being  erected  on  the  site  of  the  old  hall  on  Mason 
street,  will  be  laid  on  Washington's  Birthday, 
February  22nd,  with  appropriate  exercises.  It  is 
planned  to  make  this  a  gala  occasion  in  Native 
Sons'  circles,  and  previous  to  the  cornerstone- 
laying  exercises  there  will  be  a  parade  and  other 
enthusiasm-producing  features. 


SEEDS  FOE  DISTRIBUTION  TO 

THOSE   WHO   WILL   CO-OPERATE. 

The  seed  and  plant  distribution  of  the  Agricul- 
tural Experiment  Station  at  the  University  of  Cali- 
fornia, Berkeley,  is  assuming  new  phases  and  is 
becoming  specialized  in  its  purposes  because  those 
in  charge  of  different  divisions  of  plant  industry 
are  undertaking  to  supply  individuals,  who  under- 
take co-operation  with  them  in  plant  testing,  the 
seeds  or  plants  which  are  necessary  to  start  the 
growths.  In  this  line  of  work  special  distributions 
have  been  made  by  the  cereal,  horticultural  and 
viticultural  divisions  and,  more  recently,  the  divi- 
sion of  agricultural  education  has  undertaken  wide 
distribution  of  seeds  for  use  in  school  gardens  when 
the  local  teachers  comply  with  the  conditions  which 
are  prescribed,  one  of  the  main  points  of  which  is 
to  report  the  results  of  trials  of  the  plants  which 
are  introduced.  It  is  desired  to  know  of  both  suc- 
cesses and  failures,  of  both  value  and  worthless- 
ness  found  in  the  plants,  in  order  that  their  be- 
havior in  the  hands  of  co-operating  experimenters 
may  be  clearly  made  out.  The  applicant  is  required 
to  pay  a  small  amount  for  each  article,  partly  to 
bear  the  cost  of  collection  and  distribution,  but 
chiefly  as  a  guaranty  that  he  lias  not  merely  an  idle 
desire  for  what  can  be  had  for  nothing,  but  in- 
tends to  make  trial  for  a  definite  end  and  will 
report  results  to  us.  As  the  year  has  proved  so 
scant  of  early  rainfall,  field  seeds,  which  for  the 
most  part  require  early  sowing  to  furnish  a  fair 
chance  to  determine  value,  are  withdrawn,  and 
offerings  restricted  to  garden  plants,  which  have 
always   met   with   wider   welcome. 

Seeds  now  ready  for  distribution  include  the  fol- 
lowing: Hardy  Flowering  Plants — Papaver  Somni- 
ferum  (double  red  opium  poppy),  rarely  grown  in 
California;  it  is  one  of  the  most  brilliant  and 
showy  of  garden  plants.  Cupid  Sweet  Pea 
"Beauty,"  a  dwarf  pea  which  originated  in  Cali- 
fornia; has  a  pink  flower  of  considerable  frag- 
rance. Garden  Vegetables — Stringless  Green  Pod 
Beans,  claimed  to  be  the  best  variety  of  its  type, 
a  feature  being  the  comparative  stringless  charac- 
ter of  its  pods.  Bust  Proof  Wax  Butter  Bean, 
while  not  held  to  be  absolutely  rust  proof,  is 
superior  in  this  respect  to  other  strains.  French 
Breakfast  Radish,  the  best  variety  of  all  radish, 
with  a  nice  contrast  of  red  and  white  color,  sym- 
metry in  form,  pleasing  and  appetizing  in  appear- 
ance, and  with  exceedingly  good  eating  qualities. 
Pepper  Grass,  a  garden  plant  much  used  with  mus- 
tard seedlings  to  make  sandwiches. 

These  seeds  will  be  sent  to  any  address  for  five 
cents  per  packet,  postpaid,  and  application  should 
be  made  early,  as  it  is  impossible  to  continue  the 
distribution  throughout  the  year.  Address  E.  J. 
Wickson,  Agricultural  Experiment  Station,  Berke- 
lev,    California.

who  would  1 1  ke  to  be  a  mo1  her  to 
a  homeless  child?  Some  child  loving 
woman  with  a  yearning  love  in  her 
1 1  car  1  for  a  warm,  dependent,  weu 
bundle  of  flesh,  with  all  its  hopes 
and  possibilities)  All  children  aro 
.■hi ii led  t.i  :i  mol her 's  lo> e  and,  wil li- 
mit it,  they  drop  like  an  improp- 
erly nourished  plant.  So,  it  is  mothers 
that  the  Native  Sons  and  Native 
Daughters  are  looking  for.  They  are 
searching  all  over  this  great  big  State  of  6urs  for 
the  people  whose  homes  lack  the  sunshine  of  a 
baby  's  smile. 

Should  ymi  happen  to  drop  into  the  office  of  the 
Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  Central  *  !om- 
mittee  on   Homeless  Children,  at   B55   Phelan  Bldg., 

San  Francisco,  some  day  between  the  hours  of  two 
and    four,  yon    would    no   doubt    Had    the    room    full    of 

people  who  are  intensely  interested  in  this  project, 
which  promises  to  be  the  greatest  of  its  kind  ever 
inaugurated.  Judging  from  the  personal  applica- 
tion and  the  scores  of  letters  which  arrive  every 
day  from  t  hose  who  want  information  concerning 
the  work  and  what  papers  they  must  sign  in  order 
to  get  a  child  from  t tie  Committee,  it  would  appear 
there  are  about  as  many  persons  who  desire  these 
children  as  there  are  children  needing  homes.  The 
Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  have  realized 
tins  .on. lit  ion  and  are  now  doing  their  best  to  bring 
together  the  desire  on  the  one  hand  and  the  need  on 
t  he   other. 

Many  may  consider  that  the  dependent  and  home- 
Less  child  who  falls  into  a  home  where  it  will  be 
eared     for     with     love     and     tenderness,     is     I  he     must 

foi'tiniaf. ■  in  this  little  transaction.  A  promi- 
nent Native  Son.  however,  whose  little  adopt  ed 
girl    lias    been    B    source    of    untold    happiness    to    him, 

says  that  all  the  congratulations  should  not  fall  on 
one  side,  for  he  is  certain  that  it  is  a  pretty  even 
game.  Since  August  7th,  the  Native  Sons  and 
Native    Daughters    Central    Committee    has    placed

The  people  of  California  are  noted  for  their 
generosity,  and  when  a  movement  as  ivo^thj  as  this 
is  started  they  ran  always  be  depended  upon  to 
contribute  liberally.  The  Central  Committee  ap- 
preciates    the     interest     that     the     pen  pie     in     general 

have  taken  in  their  efforts  on   behalf  of  the  home 
less    child,    and    particularly    appreciative    are    the 
several    Parlors   in  the  State,   for  the  splendid   pal 
ronage    given    the    entertainments    on    California's 
Day  for  the  homeless  child. 

The  happy  Christmas  season  is  coming.  As  the 
bells  ring  out  their  glad  tiding  on  Christmas  morn, 
don't  you  think  that  their  music  will  be  sweeter 
if  it  is  accompanied  by  a  child's  Voice  of  delight 
at  the  sight  of  a  gayly  decked  tree  beside  the  are 
place,  the  Santa  clans  books,  the  stocking  full  of 
Candy  and  things — and,  well  vmi  know  the  kind  of 
a    Chri8tmas    your    mot  her    enjoyed    with    you.

Can  send  you  what  you  most  need  to  make  your

Whereas,  Almighty  God  in  Hie  infinite  wi 
has  taken  from  our  midst  our  friend  and  brother, 
Harry  J,  Luttrell,  who  died  November  8,  L910,  and 
who  was  always  a  true  and  loyal  Native  Son  and 
a  valued  member  of  Athena  Parlor,  No.  195;  there 
fore  l>c  it 

Resolved,  Thai  we  deeply  mourn  the  loss  to  our 
Onlcr  of  a  staunch  member  honored  and  loved  by 
all  with  whom  he  came  in  contact;  and 

Resolved,  That    we  extend   our  sincere   sympathy 
in    Ins    wife,    in    the    loss    of    so    devoted    and    true    .1 
husband;  to  the  children,  in  the  loss  of  so  noble  and 
so   kind  a   father;   and   to   all   the   friends,    in 
deep    sorrow ;    and 

Resolved,  That  our  charter  be  draped  for  a  period 
of  thirty  days;  and  that  a  copy  of  these  resolutions 
be  spread  upon   the  minutes  of  the   Parlor,  a  eopy

JOHN  L.  AUSTIN. 

Whereas,  The  Supreme  Ruler  of  the  Universe,  has 
in  ilis  infinite  wisdom,  removed  from  our  midst  one 
of  our  worthy  and  esteemed  brothers,  John  I- 
Austin;  and  whereas,  the  long  and  intimate  rela- 
tion held  with  him  as  a  member  of  St.  Helena  Par 
lor,  No.  53,  N.S.G.W.,  and  of  this  commit  nity 
makes  it  eminently  befit  t  ing  that  we  record  our 
appreciation  of  him  as  a  man  and  a  brother;  there- 
fore, be  it 

Resolved,  That  the  removal  of  such  a  life  from 
among  our  midst  leaves  a  vacancy  and  a  shadow 
that  will  be  deeply  realized  by  the  members  and 
friends  of  this  organization,  and  will  prove  a  great 
loss  to  this  Parlor  and  to  the  community  in  which 
he   lived. 

Resolved,  That  with  deep  sympathy  with  the 
bereaved  relatives  of  J.  L.  Austin,  we  express  our 
hope  that  even  so  great  a  loss  may  be  overruled 
for  good  by  Him  Who  doeth  all  things  well. 

Resolved,  That  a  copy  of  these  resolutions  In- 
spread  on  our  minutes,  and  a  copy  forwarded  to 
the   bereaved    family,   and    published   in   the   Grizzly

infinite  wisdom,  to  remove  from  our  midst,  our 
honored  and  respected  brother,  Francis  J.  Collins, 
to  the  Eternal  Parlor  on  High;  and,  whereas,  We 
recognized  in  -Brother  Collins'  life,  the  distinguish- 
ing features  that  mark  a  loyal  "Native  Son,''  an 
honest  and  pure  citizen,  a  loving  husband  and  a 
devoted  father;  and.  whereas,  Armv  and  Navv  Par- 
lor, No.  207,  N.S.G.W.,  has  lost  a  faithful  and 
loyal    member;    therefore   be  it 

Resolved,  That  the  members  of  Army  and  Navy

decree  of  our  Heavenly  Father,  Who  doetli  all 
things  well,  extend  their  sincere  sympathy  to  the

be   it   further 

Resolved,    That    this    Parlor's    charter    be    draped

Juan  Burroel,  an  Indian,  who  was  horn  at  Jesus 
Maria.  State  of  Sonora,  Mexico,  June  24,  L789, 
died  on  November  19th  at  Lakeside.  San  Diego 
County.  In  1810  he  joined  the  Mexican  army  and 
in  1836  went  to  Monterey  (then  Mexican  territory), 
and  remained  at  tin-  presidio  there  until  the  Ameri- 
can troops  took  possession.  He  soon  thereafter  re- 
turned to  the  southern  part  of  the  State,  and  saw 
all  the  wonderful  development  in  that  section  fol- 
lowing American  occupation.  In  1849,  when  the 
-i  loneers  wen*  coming  to  <  California  in  search  of 
wealth,  Burroel  was  already  an  old  man,  being  then 
-in  year-;  of  age.     He  was  truly  a  pioneer  of  Pioneers.

Hoops  Used  to  Trap  Canary. 

A  new  use  for  hoops  was  developed  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. The  pet  canary  of  a  woman  living  on  Fid 
som  street  escaped  from  its  cage  and  nearly  every 
woman  and  child  on  the  block  was  engaged  in 
efforts  to  recapture  it.  without  success,  when  a 
buxom  colored  woman  came  sailing  down  the  street 
with  her  circumference  of  dress  as  large  as  an  ultra 
fash  ion  a  hie  width  of  hoops  could  make  it.  The 
bewildered  bird  stood  hesitatingly  upon  the  edge 
of  the  sidewalk  when  Miss  Dinah  approached,  and 
with  a  dexterous  swing  to  her  crinoline  the  canary 
was  suddenly  enveloped  and  caught  heneath  her 
dress.  With  due  regard  to  proprieties  the  cage  was 
placed  beneath  the  hell-shaped  attired  Dinah  and 
the  lord  quickly  sought  safety  upon  its  former 
perch.     When   cage,   with   bird,   had  heeu   carefully 


removed,   tin'   mistress  of   the   I pa   received   a    re-

DRINK  HABIT 

The  Gatlin  Treatment  Cures  Liquor  Drinking  in  THREE  DAYS  Under 
Contract — No  Hypodermic  Injections  or  Other  Disagreeable  Features 

The  Gatlin  Institute  was  established  eleven  years  ago.  More  than  eleven  thousand  men  and 
women  have  been  cured  of  liquor  drinking  by  the  Gatlin  treatment — there  has  been  failure  to  cure 
in  no  ease. 

No  hypodermic  injections;  no  bad  after  effects,  no  poisonous  drugs,  no  substitutive  stimulants — 
a    treatment    so    harmless    that    any    child    could   take  it. 

Each  patient  is  accepted  for  treatment  under  legal  contract  to  cure  in  THREE  DAYS — the 
cure  to  be  entirely  satisfactory  in  every  particular  or  the  fee  paid  is  refunded  when  the  patient 
is  leaving  the  institute  and  treatment  costs  nothing. 

The  Gatlin  Home  treatment  is  just  as  effective  as  Institute  treatment  if  plain,  simple  direc- 
tions are  followed. 

Call  or  write  for  books  of  particulars,  copies  of  contracts  to  cure  and  other  information.

HOME   INDUSTRY   LEAGUE 

(Continued  from  Page  2,   Column  3) 

On  July  22,  1910,  when  the  label  of  the  League  was 
adopted,  it  made  itself  all-powerful  in  creating  a 
demand  for  California-made  products  by  the  con- 
sumer. It  has  proven  beyond  a  question  of  a  doubt 
the  logical  identification  of  a  California  product 
when  the  consumer  asks  for  it.  What  it  will  do  in 
the  future,  depends  upon  the  individual  purchasers 
of  the  State,  but  from  all  signs  of  progress,  the 
campaign  promises  greater  results  than  ever  before. 
The  League  has  kept  thousands  and  thousands  of 
dollars'  worth  of  contracts  in  the  State,  by  co-op- 
erating with  the  different  bodies,  corporations  and 
individuals  trying  to  keep  money  here.  This  effort 
alone,  and  the  economical  results,  show  what  per- 
sistency and  logical  force  can  do  to  bring  contracts 
to  the  attention  of  the  Federal  Government,  the 
State,  the  municipality,  corporations  and  individ- 
uals who  may  be  sending  contracts  out  of  this  State 
to  the  East.  The  League  has  done  more  for  the 
printing,  structural  steel,  ornamental  iron,  biscuit 
and  other  industries,  through  keeping  contracts  here, 
than  any  other  organization  in  the  West.  It  is 
placing  for  the  different  members,  their  lines  in  the 
big  jobbing  and  retail  stores  of  the  State,  which 
has  never  been  accomplished  by  any  other  organi- 
zation. 

The  indirect  influence  and  detail  work,  not  to 
mention  the  great  amount  of  advertising  and  pub- 
licity accomplished,  are  things  that  many  people  of 
the  State,  particular^  the  manufacturers  and  pro- 
ducers, are  not  aware  of.  The  work  we  are  doing  is 
told  to  illustrate  the  fact  that  we  are  accomplish- 
ing something.  The  League  has  managed,  through 
its  Friday  luncheon  meetings  at  the  Palace  Hotel 
ever  since  its  inception,  to  interest  the  manufac- 
turers and  producers  that  have  been  affected  by 
poor  business  conditions.  The  first  of  these  lunch- 
eons was  given  to  the  officers  of  the  Mission  Im- 
provement Association,  from  whom  the  League  se- 
cured an  expression  of  the  work  they  were  doing 
for  the  benefit  of  home  industry  in  the  Mission  dis- 
trict of  San  Francisco.  Then  followed  a  luncheon 
to  the  Women's  Federated  Clubs,  where  they  went 
on  record  for  patronizing  home  industry,  represent- 
ing as  they  do  23,000  women  in  the  State  of  Califor- 
nia. This  meeting  manifested  that  it  is  in  the 
women 's  province,  particularly  on  food  products  and 
household  goods,  to  discriminate  in  favor  of  Cali- 
fornia-made goods;  their  influence  also  affects  the 
purchases  of  the  men  of  their  households,  who  in 
many  cases  leaves  the  buying  to  their  wives  and 
daughters. 

Again,  on  October  14,  1910,  when  the  League  in- 
vited the  Grand  President  of  the  Native  Sons,  and 
a  representative  from  every  Parlor  in  the  city  and 
county  of  San  Francisco,  the  fact  was  emphasized 
that  the  Native  Sons  and  Daughters  of  California 
were  the  logical  buyers  of  California  products  and 
could  be  made  the  strongest  advocates  for  the  pur- 
chasing of  California-made  goods.  Through  expres- 
sions from  the  various  representatives  of  the  differ- 
ent Parlors,  it  was  learned  that,  the  Native  Sons 
had  always  had  committees  on  industry  resources, 
taking  up  the  work  relative  to  California  products, 
but  with  the  aid  of  the  Home  Industry  League  and 
the  eo-operation -they  could  give  they  would  become 
more  active  than  ever  before  on  the  subject  of  pat- 
ronizing home  industry.  Daniel  A.  Ryan,  Grand 
President,  recommended  to  the  League  that  he 
would  suggest  to  the  various  Parlors  of  the  State 


that  ten  minutes  of  their  time  be  devoted  to  the 
discussion  of  patronizing  home  industry  and  the 
greater  development  of  same  at  every  meeting.  His 
remarks  met  with  the  heartiest  approval  of  all  the 
members  of  the  League,  who  felt  they  had  secured 
a  strong  ally  in  the  support  of  the  Native  Sons  and 
Daughters. 

This  luncheon  has  been  followed  by  others  given 
for  the  benefit  of  the  various  interests  of  the  State 
as  represented  by  the  newspaper  representatives, 
architects,  contractors  and  grocers.  These  lunch- 
eons have  been  given  to  illustrate  the  great  possi- 
bilities of  protection  of  our  home  industries,  and  the 
benefits  that  can  be  derived  from  same  by  the  peo- 
ple of  the  State  if  they  can  only  see  the  practical 
results  that  mean  dollars  and  cents  to  them  and 
theirs  through  co-operation  in  the  buying  of  goods 
that  will  help  make  California  prosperous. 

The  urgent  need  of  purchasing  California  products 
is  pre-eminently  illustrated  in  the  purposes  and  ef- 
forts of  the  Home  Industry  League.  Why  should 
the  manufacturers  and  producers  of  the  State  take 
up  the  work  that  is  so  necessary  for  better  condi- 
tions if  there  is  no  need  of  improving  the  different 
manufacturing  and  producing  industries?  Surely 
the  work  and  the  conditions  must  be  serious  when 
100  to  600  men,  representing  the  big  industries  of 
the  State,  will  give  so  much  attention  to  the  vari- 
out  duties  that  attend  the  promoting  of  California's 
industries.  If  these  men  and  the  members  of  the 
Home  Industry  League  can  take  their  time  from 
their  own  business  to  devote  to  this  grand  work  of 
promoting  the  State's  industries,  surely  the  individ- 
ual residents  of  the  State  will  do  their  share  in  pro- 
moting these  same  interests  by  specifying  made-in- 
California  goods  when  they  buy.  It  is  not  that  the 
members  of  the  League  are  receiving  an  emolument 
from  the  results  of  their  labor,  but  are  doing  the 
wrork  for  the  good  of  their  own  industries  and  those 
represented  in  the  entire  State.  Under  these  condi- 
tions, is  it  any  wonder  then,  that  the  League  is 
seeking  the  co-operation  of  the  purchasing  popula- 
tion of  the  State?  For,  after  all,  it  is  they — the 
consumers — who  directly  or  indirectly  dictate  the 
policy  of  the  dealer,  who  buys  and  sells  the  goods 
as  demanded  by  them. 

By  the  above  resume  of  the  various  details  of  the 
work  that  has  been  accomplished,  it  has  been  proven 
that  the  Home  Industry  League  is  past  the  prelim- 
inary steps  of  organization;  that  it  is  a  body  of 
strong,  all-powerful  co-operative  manufacturers, 
with  a  nucleus  of  nearly  600  members  conserva- 
tively, progressively,  and  consistently  working  for 
one  object — home  industry.  That  the  League  has 
attracted  the  attention  of  the  entire  State  and  the 
interest  of  the  governors  and  senators  of  other 
states,  is  exemplified  by  the  presence  of  Governor 
Gillette.  Governor-elect  Oddie  of  Nevada,  Senator 
Newlands  of  Nevada,  Senator  Flint,  Congressman 
Julius  Kahn,  Dr.  Madison  C.  Peters,  and  many  other 
public  spirited  gentlemen  who  have  taken  personal 
interest  in  the  progress  and  success  of  the  League, 
at    our    luncheons. 

However,  all  success  up  to  the  moment  is  due  in 
a  great  measure  to  the  untiring  and  devoted  energy 
of  the  officers  and  committees  of  the  League,  and 
the  newspapers  and  different  publications  that  have 
endorsed  and  supported  the  movement  of  home  in- 
dustry. The  League  cannot  extend  too  much 
thanks  to  those  who  have  worked  for  it,  and  who 
can  see  in  the  work  the  future  success  that  will 
bring  prosperity  to  all  of  us.  But  to  expedite  this 
success,  the  League  needs  the  earnest  and  sineere 
co-operation    of   the   individual   residents     of     this

CALIFORNIA  EULOGIZED. 

' '  I  have  purposely  refrained  today  from 
indulging  in  panegyrics  npnu  the  beauty, 
grandeur,  wealth  and  prosperity  of  our  State. 
or  from  solemnly  declaring  that  we  will  foster 
industries,  and  aid  in  all  that  is  material.  It 
goes  without  saying  that,  whatever  political 
or  other  differences  may  exi-r  among  our  peo- 
ple, all  are  proud  of  California — its  un- 
bounded  resources,  its  unsurpassed  scenic 
grandeur,  its  climatic  conditions  that  com- 
pel the  wandering  admiration  of  the  world; 
and  all  will  devotedly  lend  their  aid  to  the 
proper  development  of  the  State,  to  the  pro- 
tection and  preservation  of  that  which  our 
citizens  have  acquired  and  that  which  indus- 
trially is  in  our  midst. ' ' — '.'losing  remarks  in 
inaugural  address  of  Governor  Hiram  John- 
son, of  Sunset  Parlor,  Sacramento. 


WORTHY  OF  CONSIDERATION. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  says:  '-Patronize  home  indus- 
try, sure!  But  how  in  the  name  of  common  sense 
can  we  buy  goods  manufactured  in  California  if 
the  manufacturers  thereof  don 't  let  us  know  that 
a  re  in  business  I ' 

Come  to  think  of  it.  the  suggestion  is  worthy  of 
smne  consideration.  There  are  some  business  men 
who  regard  it  as  the  duty  of  the  newspaper  to  pro- 
claim the  "trade-at-home"  gospel,  but  who  never 
advertise. — Woodland  Democrat.

Mysterious  Disappearance  of  a  Lone  Miner 

BY  GEORGE  DICKONSON— (THE  LATE  GEORGE  RUTHERFORD.) 


There  is  many  a  man  who  says  things  to  his  wife 
he  wouldn't  dare  say  to  his  cook. 


EROME    JONES    CAME    TO    CALI- 

fornia     after     the     tl ry     of     the 

State 's  gold  production  was  well 
demon s(  rated.  Unlike  I  hose  who, 
in  1849,  hastily  gathered  together  a 
few  uecessa  ries  of  life  and  pul  out 
in  any  sort  of  vehicle,  J  erome 
waited,  and  in  a  manner  becoming  a 
gentleman,  rode  to  <  'aiifornia  be 
lund  an  engine.  Jerome  reasoned 
that  the  nuggets  could  not  be  so 
easily  exhausted  as  some  people 
ned.  He  was  right,  for  gold  mining  in  Cali- 
fornia was  then  hardly  past  its  infancy.  But  the 
comfortable  atmosphere  of  the  journey  was  lost  be- 
fore his  destination  was  reached,  and  he  was  forced 
to  travel  by  stage,  and  some  on  foot.  Once  in 
California,  he  soon  lost  the  characteristics  of  the 
"tenderfoot"  and  became  more  and  more 
tiated  into  the  habits  of  the  true  "forty-niner. ,J 
So,  when  the  miners  of  Willow  *  'rook  came  to 
know  him  well,  he  could  heardly  be  distinguished 
from  those  who  had  crossed  "the  plains"  with 
■ 

Tins  air  Jerome  kept  inviolate,  and  when  the 
writer  saw  him  in  1898,  journeying  to  Sa  n  Fran- 
cisco to  celebrate  the  fiftieth  anniversary  of  the 
discovery  of  the  yellow  metal  in  California,  he 
was  supplied  with  a  quart  of  frontier  whisky,  of 
which  he  drank  at  his  pleasure,  and  which  he 
generously  offered  to  all  about  him.  Jerome's  years 
on  Willow  (.'reek  were  thrifty.  From  some  whim  of 
Fate,  or  from  good  judgment,  his  claims  always 
"'paid."  and  he  was  known  to  have  a  snug  sum 
stored  away  for  a  "rainy  day.'-  Many  of  those 
unfortunate  people  who  seem  to  have  been  divinely 
chosen  to  guard  over  the  affairs  of  others,  to  the 
neglect  of  their  own,  asserted  that  he  ought  to 
retire  from  hard  labor,  return  to  his  Eastern  home, 
and  enjoy  his  hard  earned  wealth.  But  there  seems 
to  have  been  something  attractive  to  him  in  the 
high  Sierra-,  for  he  never  returned  to  the  East. 
Instead,  new  ''claims''  were  staked  out  and  worked 
by  him  every  year,  and  the  tireless  energy  of  his 
youth  seems   to  have  been  with   him  to  the  last. 

The  "pay  streaks"  on  Willow  Creek  were  on 
the  wane  by  1S90.  The  Mexican  had  longe  since 
left,  and  most  of  the  American-born  had  sought 
new  "diggings,"  or  retired  to  live  on  what  they 
had  succeeded  in  taking  from  the  earth.  Jerome 
stayed.  He  mined  on  the  choicest  locations  dur- 
ing the  summer,  and  repaired  to  the  more  clement 
weather  of  the  Sacramento  Valley  for  a  few  months 
during  the  winter.  But  as  the  years  passed,  Jerome 
mined  less  ami  was  a  more  frequent  visitor  at 
Buck's  Ranch,  especially  on  days  when  the  stage- 
coach rolled  up  from  Oroville — an  event  which, 
up  to  1907,  could  he  counted  upon  for  an  unusual 
outpouring  of  summer  residents  and  campers  from 
around    Buck's    Ranch. 

In  1903,  exclusive  of  Indians,  less  than  a  dozen 
miners,  besides  Jerome  Jones,  claimed  Willow  Creek 
as  their  headquarters.  The  '  'pack-trains ' '  which 
formerly  led  out  for  that  place  thrice  a  week,  were 
then  making  the  trips  there  not  more  than  once  in 
two  weeks,  and  there  were  fewer  animals  to  the 
train.  That  once  far-famed  camp  was  reverting  to 
its  former  primitive  state.  The  streams  were  no 
longer  continually  muddy;  the  lodgepole  pine  and 
incense  cedar  were  springing  up  and  struggling  for 
existence  where  the  hydraulic  giants  had  once  torn 
away  acres  of  soil;  bear  tracks  were  becoming  far 
more  common  along  the  trails;  the  black-tail  deer 
was  >een  more  frequently;  the  mountain  lion 
roamed  with  greater  freedom  than  any  of  his 
generation   had   known. 

About  4  p.  m.  of  July  4.  1903,  when  the  clamor  of 
the  bar-room  had  somewhat  subsided,  the  clerk  and 
barkeeper  of  the  Buck's  Ranch  hotel  and  store,  was 
given  a  quiet  moment  to  think  over  the  business  of 
the  day  and  make  a  rougn"  estimate  of  the  sales. 
The  beer  was  exhausted  an  hour  before,  and  unless 
business  slackened  there  would  soon  be  no  liquor 
left  to  sell.  From  nearly  every  mining  camp  within 
a  radius  of  seven  miles,  the  miners  had  come  into 
-  Ranch  that  morning.  But  the  celebration 
of    Endpendence   Day   was  not  so  marked  an  event 


as    fifty     pears    pn  [i  was    nearly

kept    "in-    man    very    butey  all   that   day    | 
drinks   and    cigars. 

The  drunken  and  disorderly  kept  up  their  revel 
until  well  past  noon,  but  in  a  few  hours 
ing  sun  warned  many  who  had  come  afoot  from 
long  distances  that  the  time  to  depart  was  at  hand. 
So  with  one  farewell  drink,  many  departed.  At 
4  p.m.  probably  more  than  half  were  gone,  for  the 
time-honored  "poker  game"  was  not  starred  that 
day,  and  consequently  there  were  no  charms  to 
make   men    linger, 

But.  about  that  bonr  a  miner,  slightly  intoxi- 
cated,  straggled  into  the  Buck's  Ranch  saloon- 
postoffice-store-hotel  and  announced  that  Jerome 
Jones  had  been  missing  fur  four  days.  The  place 
at  which  he  was  last  seen  by  men.  and  the  direc- 
tion he  took  on  departing,  together  with  his  prob- 
able direction,  were  discussed.  The  fact  of  the 
mistdng  miner'--  gold  was  mentioned,  and  hints  of 
foul  play  were  passed.  But  the  spirit  of  the  day 
overshadowed  the  importance  of  the  announcement, 
and  for  a  day  or  more  it  was  seemingly  forgotten. 

The  failure  of  the  miner  to  make  an  appearance 
anywhere  during  the  next  few  days  brought  out 
renewed  interest  in  the  announcement,  and  a  search- 
ing party  who  visited  his  cabin  entered,  and  exam- 
ined his  effects.  Everything  haa  the  appearance  of 
Jerome  having  left  for  a  stay  of  some  length, 
which  fact  threw  discredit  on  the  theory  of  foul 
play,  and  the  search  was  shorn  of  its  ardor.  Another 
week  p>assed.  and  the  niissing  man  was  neither  seen, 
nor  heard  of.  The  search  then  commenced  in  good 
earnest.  Every  ridge  and  ravine  was  visited;  not 
a  trail  was  missed.  Suspicions  were  whispered 
concerning  probable  guilty  parties,  and  then  dis- 
missed, for  no  motive  for  murder  could  be  linked 
with  his  disappearance.  When  last  seen  Jerome, 
carrying  a  shotgun,  came  up  to  where  some  miners 
were  working,  but  without  speaking,  had  left. 
Some  were  led  to  believe  that  he  was  demented 
and  wandered  about  aimlessly,  at  length  dying  from 
exposure.  Others  believed  that  he  had  accidently 
shot  himself.  The  idea  of  suicide  was  not  for  a 
minute    entertained. 

A  brother  of  the  missing  man  came  out  from 
the  East  to  prosecute  the  search,  and  offered  a 
large  reward  for  any  clue  to  the  cause  of  Jerome's 
disappearance.  Still  nothing  was  revealed,  although 
the  search  was  kept  up  for  weeks.  None  of  his 
reputed  wealth  could  be  found,  for  no  one  knew 
of  its  location,  and  after  a  period  of  some  six 
weeks,  the  search  for  his  remains  was  abandoned. 
When  the  event  was  becoming  less  thought  of, 
however,  and  Jerome  figured  no  longer  among  men 
as  a  human  being,  the  attention  of  the  less  thrifty 
of  Willow  ''reek's  residents  became  directed  to 
his  gold.  Soon  there  were  frequent  visits  of  men 
to  the  vicinity  of  his  cabin  and  his  "digg; 
Shovels  were  brought  and  holes  were  dug.  in  efforts 
to  unearth  the  supposed  buried  treasure.  It  was 
not  long  until  the  ground  around  the  miner's  cabin 
had  the  appearance  of  a  plowed  field,  so  diligently 
had  the  shovels  been  worked.  Every  stone  of  size 
was  overturned,  and  a  hole  sunk  beneath  where  it 
lay.  Few  trees,  indeed,  were  there  in  the  neigh- 
borhood, that  di'l  not  have  their  roots  disturbed  by 
the  searchers.  No  place,  at  which  there  was  any 
likelihood  of  hidden  gold,  escaped  the  search.  Bur 
if  ever  any  gold  was  discoveAd,  nothing  was  ever 
known  of  it.  and  there  is  reason  to  believe  that 
these  seekers  for  an  easy  "pocket"  went  unre- 
warded. 

Of  the  disa]  of  Jerome,  people  came   to 

think  less  and  less.     In  a  year  many  had  forgotten 

the  exact   facts  of  the   case,  and  in  less  than  two 

was    seldom    mentioned.      But 

about    two    years   later   the   shotgun   which   he  bore

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


February 


Important  Happenings  in  California  Fifty  Years  Ago 


(COMPILED    FOE    THE    GRIZZLY  BEAR   BY   THOMAS    R.    JONES.) 


HE  CALIFORNIA  LEGISLATURE, 
in  session  at  Sacramento,  spent  the 
entire  month  of  February,  1861, 
listening  for  several  hours  each  day 
that  it  was  in  session  to  speeches 
upon  the  Union  question.  Senator 
Edgerton.  in  the  Senate,  and  John 
Conness.  in  the  Assembly,  developed 
into  leaders  of  the  Union  advocates 
and  made  the  most  effectual 
speeches.  The  news  from  the  East 
became  more  and  more  indicative  of 
secession  and  civil  war,  and  this  tended  to  fur- 
ther divide  the  legislators  into  two  camps  as  their 
sympathies  became  intensified. 

The  election  of  a  United  States  Senator,  to  suc- 
ceed Senator  Gwin,  was  resolutely  postponed  and 
nothing  more  done  in  the  matter  than  attempts 
at  caucusing  and  making  a  Democratic  choice.  The 
Douglas  Democrats  finally,  on  February  20th,  to 
the  number  of  thirty,  selected  J.  A.  McDougall  as 
their  candidate,  but  the  Breckenridge  wing  could 
not  come  to  any  understanding.  The  prominent 
candidates  were  J.  W.  Denver,  John  Nugent,  Ed- 
mund Randolph  and  J.  A.  McDougall,  each  of  whom 
had  nearly  the  same  strength  in  the  caucus. 

The  information  that  a  Southern  Confederacy  had 
been  formed,  with  Jefferson  Davis  as  president  and 
A.  H.  Stephens  as  vice-president,  was  received  in 
time  to  make  the  observation  of  Washington's 
Birthday,  on  the  22nd,  take  on  the  characteristics 
of  a  Union  demonstration.  In  San  Francisco,  a 
platform  was  erected  at  the  corner  of  Montgomery 
and  Market  streets,  and  after  a  procession  had 
marched  to  the  point  a  great  Union  meeting  was 
held.  Eugene  Casserly  was  made  president,  and  over 
20.000  people  gathered  to  listen  and  applaud  the 
Union  sentiments  of  Eugene  Casserly,  Edward  Hon- 
ley,  Delos  Lake  and  J.  B.  Crockett.  After  this 
demonstration  another  procession  was  formed  and 
the  crowd  moved  to  the  Plaza,  where  an  impromptu 
meeting  was  organized  and  addressed  by  half  a 
score  of  speakers.  R.  M.  Briggs,  from  Amador 
County,  was  said  to  have  made  the  most  telling  and 
enthusiastically  received  speech  of  the  day.  The 
demonstration  lasted  into  the  night.  San  Jose. 
Stockton,  Sacramento,  Marysville  .  Nevada  City, 
Yreka,  Columbia,  Downieville,  and  a  number  of 
other  towns  had  processions,  anvil  salutes  and  brass 
band  concerts  to  show  their  loyalty  to  the  Union, 
and  the  demonstrations  certainly  spoke  in  no  un- 
certain tones  as  to  where  California  would  take 
her  stand  during  the  impending  trouble. 

News  was  received  during  the  month  of  the 
passage  by  Congress  of  a  Pacific  railroad  bill,  but 
it  was  feared  that  President  Buchanan  would  veto 
it  on  account  of  the  unsettled  state  of  political 
affairs. 

Chas.  Crocker  was  now  one  of  the  leaders  of  the 
Republican  minority  in  the  Assembly  and  was 
prominently  mentioned  as  an  aspirant  to  the  posi- 
tion of  postmaster  of  Sacramento  when  the  Repub- 
lican administration  took  charge  of  the  Federal 
offiee  appointments.  Rising  to  a  question  of  privi- 
lege one  day  during  this  month,  Mr.  Crocker  in- 
formed the  Assembly  that:  "My  only  ambition 
is  to  adorn  the  walk  of  life  I  have  chosen — that 
of  a  merchant."  The  great  changes  to  take  place 
within  the  next  decade  in  his  financial,  social  and 
commercial   status  was  undreamed  of  then. 

Weather  Extremely  Cold. 
The  extremely  cold  weather  of  January  con- 
tinued for  nearly  a  fortnight  in  February  and  gave 
the  State  decidedly  wintry  conditions  when  spring- 
time influences  should  be  prevailing.  The  frosts 
in  the  valleys  retarded  the  growth  of  vegetation, 
the  blossoming  of  trees,  and  the  blooming  of  flowers. 
In  the  mining  towns  of  the  mountains,  winter 
sports  under  sunshiny  days  and  moonlight  nights 
were  being  enjoyed.  The  La  Porte  press  described 
the  condition  there  in  the  following  words,  that 
were  applicable  to  all  the  other  mining  towns  simi- 
larly situated:  "Great  big  men,  extremely  small 
children,  and  delicate-looking  women  ascend  Sugar 
Loaf  Mountain  by  a  corkscrew-shaped  path,  and 
then  how  fast  they  do  come  down  its  snow-frozen 
surface.  Everyone  who  has  time  to  go  out  in  the 
moonlight  evenings  ¥or  an  hour  or  so,  and  every 
person  who  can  buy  or  borrow  a  pair  of  snowshoes. 
a  sled,  and  sometimes  a  shovel,  is  out  on  the  moun- 
tainside -enjoying  the  sport. ' ' 

But  there  was  a  tragic  side  to  the  snow-clad 
mountains.  From  here  and  there  came  the  story 
of  someone  lost  and  frozen  to  death,  of  frost  bitten 
feet  and  hands,  and  catastrophes  from  snow  slides. 
One  of  the  worst  was  on  Oruru  Hill,  near  Poker 
Flat,   in   Sierra    County,    on    February   13th,    where 


three  brothers,  Robert,  Moses  and  Marshall  Hets- 
man,  and  Peter  Johnston  were  running  a  tunnel 
into  the  hill.  Moses  and  Marshall  were  working 
in  the  tunnel  when  the  other  two  men  ran  a  car 
of  dirt  out  upon  the  dump  in  time  to  be  caught  by 
an  avalanche  which  buried  them  and  crushed  in 
the  entrance  of  the  tunnel.  It  took  Moses  and 
Marshall  ten  hours  to  dig  out  of  the  tunnel  and 
six  hours  more  to  go  three  miles  to  the  nearest 
habitation  for  assistance.  One  hundred  men  went 
on  snow  shoes  to  rescue  the  buried  men,  and  after 
several  hours'  hard  shoveling,  they  dug  Robert 
Hetsman  out  dead,  and  Peter  Johnson  dying. 
Johnston  had  been  buried'over  eighteen  hours  when 
taken  out. 

A  warm  rainstorm  prevailed  on  the  14th  and 
loth,  and  another  blew  in  on  the  25th  that  soaked 
the  State  with  moisture  and  produced  swollen 
streams  in  all  sections.  The  rain  was  a  great  bene- 
fit to  the  mining  sections,  as  it  enabled  the  miners 
to  wash  large  quantities  of  pay  dust  in  the  dry 
placers.  One  buyer  in  Volcano  bought  $1S,000  worth 
of  gold  dust  in  two  weeks,  and  the  clean-ups  were 
very  large  in  all  mining  sections.  San  Francisco 
was  surprised  on  February  26th  by  the  innovation 
of  a  heavy  hail  storm. 

Spookism   and   Talk  Fests   to   the   Fore. 

Spiritualism  was  creating  great  interest  in  its 
manifestations  at  this  time,  not  only  in  California 
but  in  Europe  and  the  Eastern  states.  Nearly  every 
hotel  and  boarding  house  in  the  cities  had  an  organ- 
ized band  of  sitters  who  formed  circles  and  devoted 
their  evenings  to  table  tipping  and  getting  tips,  or 
taps  rather,  as  to  future  events  from  the  departed 
spirits.  Mediums  sprang  into  prominence  in  nearly 
every  locality,  and  a  good  many  people  were  con- 
sidered to  be  mentally  affected  by  their  experiences. 

A  lecture  mania  also  broke  .out  during  the  winter 
and  a  score  or  more  lectures  on  topics  ranging 
through  phrenology,  religion  and  politics  were  ar- 
ranged for  as  a  series  in  the  cities  and  towns  with 
population  enough  to  raise  the  necessary  funds 
through  rjayment  of  admission  to  the  lecture  hall. 
Prominent  clergvmen  like  T.  Starr  King.  J.  A.  Ben- 
ton and  O.  C.  Wheeler,  and  scientists,  jurists  and 
political  economists  were  in  great  demand  to  enter- 
tain and  instruct  intellectually  the  people. 

There  was  a  seven  nights'  discussion  at  Red 
Bluff  on  the  "Divine  Origin  of  the  Bible,"  between 
two  prominent  debaters,  named  Dewett  and  Ed- 
munds. The  population  divided  and  the  committee 
split  over  making  a  decision  when  the  debate  was 
concluded.  ' 

A  Baptist  church  was  being  built  at  Stockton. 
A  Methodist  revival  at  Dutch  Flat,  Placer  County, 
made  sixteen  converts  in  one  evening.  A  Metho- 
dist church  was  dedicated  at  Folsom. 

The   Red   Men   Get   Troublesome. 

It  was  reported  that  the  Indians  of  Lower  Cali- 
fornia and  San  Diego  were  in  a  threatening  atti- 
tude toward  the  whites,  and  were  under  the  leader- 
ship of  a  Mexican  outlaw. 

There  was  a  battle  fought  on  Dry  Creek,  in  Butte 
County,  between  the  Diggers  of  the  valley  and 
the  Diggers  of  the  highlands.  The  latter  came 
down  in  a  large  body  to  fish  for  suckers  in  the 
valley  creeks,  and  this  intrusion  was  resented  by 
the  Chico  Diggers.  They  exchanged  over  100  shots, 
during  which  one  Indian  was  killed  on  each  side, 
and  the   Highlanders   retreated   in   disorder. 

There  were  also  Indian  troubles  in  Mendocino  and 
Humboldt  bounties.  A  correspondent  described  the 
situation  as  being  due  to  the  characteristics  of  the 
tribes  existing  there.  The  Yuka  tribe  lived  in  the 
valleys  and  numbered  about  600.  The  Tlackees 
had  a  range  of  about  twenty  square  miles  in  the 
hills  and  mountains.  They  were  an  aggressive  tribe, 
and  would  not  remain  on  a  reservation.  They  en- 
joyed as  a  pastime  the  killing  of  livestock  when- 
ever an  opportunity  offered,  and  preferred  mule 
meat  to  any  other  kind  of  animal  flesh,  with  horse 
flesh  a  second  choice,  and  as  a  result  the  slaugh- 
tered carcasses  of  mules  and  horses  were  found  in 
numerous  places  in  the  vicinity  of  their  rancherias. 
The  depredations  of  this  tribe  aroused  the  anger 
of  the  whites  and  they  attacked  a  band  of  bucks 
near  Humboldt  Bay.  killing  thirteen  of  the  number. 
It  was  expected  that  the  Indians  would  retaliate 
and  the  United  States  Government  was  appealed  to 
for  protection. 

Panthers  and  wolves  were  causing  serious  losses 
to  sheep  raisers  in  Siskiyou  County.  J.  B.  Gass  lost 
thirty -five  sheep  in  one  night,  but  by  the  use  of 
poison  killed  one  panther  and  three  wolves  on  his 
range.  Dogs  were  doing  so  much  damage  to  flocks 
in  Solano  and  other  counties,  that  sheep  raisers  were 
petitioning  the  Legislature  to  pass  an  anti-dog  law. 


Those  Sportively  Inclined  Accommodated. 

San  Mateo  County  appears  to  have  been  sports- 
man's paradise  at  this  time.  Reports  of  a  party 
from  San  Francisco  bagging  fifty  snipe  and  thirty 
wild  pigeons  and  of  market  hunters  bringing  in 
horses  loaded  with  sacks  of  meadow  larks,  cotton- 
tails, ducks  and  wild  geese,  were  published.  General 
Wilson  and  his  son  killed  fifty  wild  pigeons  in  one 
afternoon,  and  large  flocks  feeding  on  acorns  were 
to  be  seen  in  the  oak  groves  of  the  county.  Another 
party  caught  one  hundred  and  thirty  mountain  trout 
in  three  hours  near  Crystal  Springs,  on  San  Mateo 
Creek.  The  weight  of  the  catch  was  thirty-seven 
pounds  and  some  of  the  speckled  beauties  weighed 
one  and  one-half  pounds. 

At  Cottonwood,  Shasta  County,  on  February  Sth," 
there  was  a  match  race.  600  yards,  between  Herki- 
niier's  horse  and  Wilson's  mare  for  $3200.  About 
$10,000  changed  hands  and  the  backers  of  the  horse 
won. 

A  race  track  was  being  constructed  at  Forest  Hill 
for  a  spring  meeting  of  turfites. 

David  McKey  and  Ralph  Dorr  killed  144  quail 
in  a  day's  shooting  on  Cottonwood  Creek. 

H.  J.  Clark  caught  a  four-pound  trout  in  Napa 
Creek. 

Edward  Skelton,  a  lad  living  on  his  father's 
ranch  twelve  miles  from  Mariposa,  killed  a  panther 
of  large  dimensions.  This  made  the  fifth  he  had  slain 
within  a  year  and  made  him  the  champion  Califor- 
nia lion  hunter  of  the  State. 

Thos.  Madden,  sinking  a  shaft  on  his  claim  near 
Murphys,  Calaveras  County,  when  thirty-five  feet 
below  the  surface,  found  the  thigh  bone  of  a  masto- 
don's leg.  It  weighed  fifty-four  pounds  and  was 
three  and  one-half  feet  long,  two  and  one-fourth 
feet  in  circumference  at  the  knee  joint,  and  eigh- 
teen inches  in  circumference  at  the  ball  of  the 
thigh. 

Joseph  Barrett,  at  Clark's  Point,  on  the  Merced 
River,  while  working  in  a  stooping  posture  upon 
the  river  bank,  was  butted  by  a  billy  goat.  He 
rolled  down  the  bank  and  the  fall  was  so  severe 
as  to  break  one  of  his  legs. 

Short  Notes  of  Commercial  Interest. 

The  annual  meeting  of  the  State  Agricultural 
Society  was  held  in  Sacramento  on  the  1st,  when 
Jerome  C.  Davis  was  elected  president  and  Rev.  O. 
C.  Wheeler  re-elected  secretary.  The  citizens  of 
Sacramento  donated  several  blocks  of  laud  to  be 
used  for  a  cattle  show  ground. 

A  woolen  mill  near  Mission  Dolores,  San  Fran- 
cisco, began  operations  and  was  turning  out  an 
excellent  quality  of  goods. 

C.  K.  Hotaling  of  Grass  Valley  exhibited  an  in- 
vention which  was  intended  to  increase  the  output 
of  hydraulic  mining  immensely.  It  was  a  method 
of  fixing  hydraulic  hose  with  ropes  and  iron  bands 
to  stand  an  increased  amount  of  pressure  and  had 
been  shown  to  accomplisn  this  to  an  extent  of  in- 
creasing pressure  from  50  to  ISO  feet.  This  was  the 
precursor  of  the  monitor,  and  was  considered  a  great 
advance  over  methods  then   in  vogue. 

An  oil  spring  was  discovered  by  United  States 
assay  officers  near  the  Mendocino  reservation  in 
Motale  Valley.  Humboldt  County.  It  was  said  to 
be  flowing  thirty  gallons  of  oil  a  day. 

George  P.  Swift,  a  man  of  wealth  living  near 
Sonoma,  kept  his  money  buried  near  his  home.  He 
dug  up  $12,000  in  the  presence  of  a  hired  man  and 
started  with  it  for  the  city.  While  gone,  the  hired 
man  got  busy  and  dug  up  $24,000  in  gold  and  made 
his  departure,  but  was  overhauled  and  put  under 
arrest.     Only  $9,800  was  recovered. 

Jesus  Maria,  a  small  mining  town  in  Calaveras 
County,  was  burned  on  February  7th.  about  twenty 
buildings  being  destroyed  and  a  $20,000  loss  sus- 
tained. 

Taafe,  McCahill  &  Co.,  dry  goods  importers  of 
San  Francisco,  failed  for  over  $350,000.  whieh  was 
the  cause  of  a  number  of  heavy  failures  in  Sacra- 
mento. Stockton  and  other  places,  of  firms  con- 
nected financially  with  them.  A  number  of  other 
heavy  failures  followed  during  the  month  and  the 
attachment  suits  instituted  amounted  to  over  a 
million  dollars.  The  causes  were  attributed  to  the 
high  rate  of  interest  ou  loans  and  failures  to  make 
collections  from  interior  merchants. 

A  road  convention  was  held  at  Jackson,  Amador 
County,  on  February  23rd.  to  organize  and  raise 
funds  to  construct  a  highway  via  Silver  Lake  to 
Carson  Valley  and  divert  the  Washoe  travel  through 
Amador  County.  This  was  afterwards  consum- 
mated, and  when  the  Alpine  County  excitement 
broke  out  the  road  became  a  "heavily  traveled  one.

i  ii    conned  ion    w  ii  li    i  he    Legislal  are 

when   I    began  to  take  part   in   the  deliberations  of 

the  California   law  making  body. 

The   criticism    that    has    been    urged    again  si    the 

legislal f   former  years   has  been   1 1 xtreinely 

large  mi  ml  in-  of  laws  and  the  character  of  them. 
At  the  session  of  1909,  over  I  hree  thousand  lulls 
were   introduced    in    the    Legislature;    probably   one 

tenth  of  these  received  proper  considerat in  com 

mitteea  and  on   the  floor      The  balance   were  either 

passed    or    rejected    in    a    haphazard    mai r,    which 

was  extremely  dangerous  for  the  interests  ol  the 
people.  Mcsi  of  the  laws  passed  al  previous  sea 
stona  of  the  Legislature  have  been  merely  changes 
repeals  of  existing  laws  and  remedial  legislation; 
comparatively  few  great  constructive  bills  have 
been  introduced. 

This    criticism    probably    explains    the    cause 
the    political    nun' si    which    became   so   sharply 
fined    al    the    i:ist    election.      The    electorate    of 
State  'H\  ided   itself  closely  up 
struct ive   or   react  ionary   legisl 
iv.lv  settled  in  favor  of  progi

the

en ntcsi.  and  in  each  the  issues  were  clearly  defined; 
the  candidates  for  the  Legislature  were  submitted 
to  the  closest  scrutiny,  and  the  platform  clear  and 
progressive.  The  progressives  won.  It  now  remains 
to  see  whether  or  not  the  pledges  of  the  progres 
gives  will  be  fulfilled.  It  is  particularly  fortunate 
that  both  branches  of  the  Legislature  and  the  Gov 
em  or  of  this  State  are  progressives,  and  are  in  the 
closest  harmony  with  each  other  on  the  main  issues 
now  pending  before  the  Legislature. 

After  two  busy  weeks  of  organization  in  each 
house,  the  lines  for  proposed  action  have  become 
apparent,  and  the  character  of  the  legislation  to  be 
enacted  has  become  practically  settled.  Pursuant 
tn  the  republican  platform,  and  the  remarkable  in- 
augural address  of  Governor  Hiram  W.  Johnson,  the 
Legislature  has  begun  its  work  to  carry  into  law 
the  important  reforms  promised.  Already  lulls  pro

erly  aimed  at   facilitating  the 


dates  with  the  least  trouble  and  expense;  a  short 
ballot  designed  to  obtain  the  best  discrimination  by 
the  electors  of  candidates  for  office;  a  strictly  non- 
partisan judiciary  column  u] the  ballot;  a   much- 

■' I  i'il  civil  service  law,  extending  to  the  civil  serv- 
ice of  the  State  and  counties;  :i  measure  to  provide 
.1  reformatory  for  first  offenders,  wherein  reform  of 
the  criminal  shall  be  attempted  rather  than  liis  pun- 
ishment;  an   adequate  and   just    working-man's  au- 

I atic    < pensation    law,    whereby   the    shock    of 

an  accident  shall  be  diffused  amongsl  the  consumers 
rather  than  be  borne  by  the  unfortunate  person 
who  suffers  the  injury;  and  a  number  of  other  im- 
portant measures,  all  of  a  constructive  nature,  have 
been  introduced,  and  are  now  pending  in  committee, 
awaiting  further  discussion*  and  an  opportunity  for 
investigation  by  all   interests  affected. 

It  is  the  avowed  purpose  of  the  Legislature  to 
undertake  the  amplesl  investigation  and  to  court 
the  fullest  criticism  of  any  of  the  constructive 
measures  which  it  is  bow  considering,  the  whole 
purpose  being  to  get  information  and  the  truth  be 
fore  the  measure  is  finally  submitted  to  the  body 
for  enactment,  The  prime  consideration  will  be 
the  interests  of  the  general  public,  rather  than  the 
interests  of  a  few.  While  the  fullest  opportunity 
is  intended  to  be  extended  to  all  parties  for  the 
hearing  on  the  proposed  reform  measures,  ii  will  be 
with  the  view  solely  of  making  them  just  ami  effect- 
ive. There  will  be  no  disposition  to  either  emascu- 
late tin 'in  or  drop  them.  They  are  bound  to  become 
la  \\  s, 

Ii  is  encouraging  to  note  the  splendid  spirit  that 
is  dominanl  in  both  houses.     It   means  thai   the  pro 


Senator   L.    II.    Roaeberry   of   Santa   Barbara    Parlor. 


posed  constructive  legislation  is  in  good  hands,  and 
that  an  earnest  endeavor  will  be  made  to  repeal 
other  bad  or  useless  laws,  and  to  enact  in  their 
places  beneficial  and  effective  ones.  Of  course,  this 
cannol  be  accomplished  without  opposition,  notwith- 
standing  the  close  co  operation   of  the  g '   forces 

in  I  he  Legislature.  There  "ill  be  powerful  interests 
affed  ed  by  these  progressive  measures  which  are 
coming  before  the  Legislature,  and  history  convinces 
one  that  they  will  not  give  up  without  a  bitter 
struggle.  This  would  seem  to  indicate  an  extended 
session  of  the  Legislature,  although  there  has  been 
marked  progress  in  organizing  both  houses,  appoint- 
ments of  committees,  and  the  early  consideration  of 
measures. 

Tin-  great  reform  measures  will  undoubtedly  eall 
forth  extended  hearings,  countless  amendments,  and 
shrewd  attempts  t<>  render  them  lifeless.  But  it  has 
already  become  apparent  thai  the  most  important 
constructive  measures  will  be  enacted  into  laws. 
It  is  true  thai  they  will  probably  be  defective  in 
some  particulars,  but  they  will  be  a  product  of  hon- 
est endeavors  and  serious  attempts  at  right  legist 
lation.  At.  all  odds,  they  will  form  a  basis  for  fu- 
ture reforms,  which  will  contain,  in  a  larger  sense, 
the   principle  of  conservation. 

In  conclusion,  it  is  safe  to  predict  that  the  pres- 
ent session  of  the  California  Legislature  will  be- 
come monumental  in  its  achievements,  and  that  it 
will  enael  a  series  of  splendid  measures,  all  tending 
towards  the  advancement  and  progress  of  political 
purity,  material  prosperity,  and  more  fairly  bal- 
anced   polit  ic;i  I    rights. 


CALIFORNIA  FIFTY  YEARS  AGO 

(Continued    from    Page    2,    Column    3.) 

The  California  Mutual  Marine  Insurance  Com- 
pany, with  $500, capital,  was  incorporated  with 

Dr.  Samuel  Meniii  as  president.  It  was,  the  first 
insurance  company  organized   in   California. 

A  bridge  I  mill  by  Deering  Bros,  at  Stevens  Bar,

February 


California's  Great  Western  Fruit  What  the  Parlors  are 

Convention  and  Citrus  Fair         Dom§  for  the 

Homeless  Children 


(WRITTEN     EXPRESSLY    FOE    THE     GRIZZLY     BEAR    BY    A.    A.    MARTIN,    GENERAL    MAN 
AGER      NORTHERN      CALIFORNIA      CITRUS     FAIR.) 


HE  NORTHERN  CALIFORNIA  CIT- 
rus  Fair,  which  is  being  advertised 
to  be  held  in  connection  with  the 
Convention  of  the  Western  Fruit 
Jobbers'  Association  at  Sacramento, 
February  13th  to  18th,  bids  fair  to 
be  one  of  the  most  important  of  these 
newer  kind  of  trades  fairs.  When 
the  committee  of  fifty  of  Saera- 
mento's  business  men  were  making 
arrangements  for  the  entertainment 
of  the  delegates  to  the  Western 
1-Tuit  Jobbers'  Convention,  provision  was  also  made 
for  the  delegates  from  the  National  Commission 
Men's  and  the  Enternational  Apple  Shipper's  Asso- 
ciations. These  three  organizations  have  in  the  past 
held  their  conventions  together,  and  what  they 
have  accomplished  has  been  a  great  factor  in  de- 
veloping the  efficiency  of  handling  the  great 
amount  of  California's  fruits  and  products.  Over 
one  hundred  million  dollars'  worth  of  California 
products  go  through  the  hands  of  these  three  or- 
ganizations every  year.  This 
is  the  first  organized  effort 
to  bring  the  grower  and 
packer  in  direct  touch  with 
the  handler  and  buyer  of 
his  product,  and  the  con- 
vention bus  been  so  thor- 
oughly advertised  through- 
out the  112  Eastern  cities 
in  which  the  members  re- 
side, that  an  attendance 
of  1200  is  actually  assured 
witn  the  possible  increase 
■  of  300  additional  by  the 
time  the  delegates  arrive. 
Many  entertain  ment 
plans  were  suggested  at 
the  numerous  committee 
meetings,  and  all  of  the 
finer  buildings  in  Sacra- 
mento canvassed  for  rooms 
in  which  to  entertain  the 
delegates.  Learning  that  a 
large  number  of  these 
Eastern  delegates  were 
members  of  the  B.P.O.E., 
the  committee  secured  the 
Elks'  lodge  room  for  that 
week.  This  was  accom- 
plished through  the  cour- 
tesy of  the  Sacramento 
Lodge  of  Elks  and  also 
through  the  courtesy  of 
Sutter  Fort  and  Sacra- 
mento Parlors  of  Native 
Sone  of  the  Golden  West, 
who  also  gave  up  their 
regular  meeting  place,  com- 
plimentary to  the  conven- 
tion. If  anything  else  were 
needed  to  make  the  con- 
vention and  fair  a  success, 
this  spirit  of  pulling  to- 
gether by  the  various  fra- 
ternal organizations  of 
Sacramento  has  done  much 
to  insure  the  success  of 
the   forthcoming  events. 

As  an  incident  to  the 
convention,  it  was  thought 
advisable  to  hold  a  Citrus 
Fair  to  set  forth  the  grow- 
ing importance  of  the  cit- 
rus  industry  in  Northern 
California.  Few  people 
realize  that  the  district 
from  Red  Bluff  to  Porter- 
ville — a  distance  of  four 
h  u  n  dred  m  i  1  es  a  n  d  w  hose 
most  southern  point  is  over 
two  hundred  miles  north  of 
Los  Angeles  —  is  shipping 
commercially  twenty-five 
hundred  carloads  of  navel 
oranges  annually,  and  this 
docs  not  include  valencias 
and  lemons.  Still  fewer 
people  appreciate  that  this 

great  volume  is  shipped  at  least  six  weeks  earlier 
than  the  first  carload  from  Riverside.  It  is  to  bring 
tnese  facts  home,  not  only  to  the  Eastern  men,  but 
also  to  the  California!!,  that  the  Northern  California 


Citrus  Fair  was  first  thought  of,  and  it  shows  that 
the  Citrus  Fair  was  something  that  was  needed 
when,  after  but  two  days'  actual  canvass  in  the 
field  for  exhibits,  the  committee  was  completely 
swamped  with  applications  for  floor  space.  New 
arrangements  have  smce  been  consummated,  and 
through  the  courtesy  of  the  firm  occupying  the  struc- 
ture, the  second  and  third  floors  ot  the  new  Han- 
rahan  building,  on  Eighth  and  L  streets,  have  been 
secured,  making  20,000  square  feet  of  space  avail- 
able. This  building,  being  in  the  center  of  the  city, 
makes  it  much  more  accessible  than  any  other  place 
that   could   be   found. 

Many  exhibits  of  novel  character  will  be  shown. 
The  general  committee,  finding  the  amount  of  in- 
terest that  was  taken  in  the  proposed  fair,  broad- 
ened its  scope  and  invited  the  fruit  men  generally 
in  California  residing  in  the  northern  part  of  the 
State.  Fresno  »  ounty  will  take  3000  square  feel 
01  floor  space,  showing  oranges,  wines,  raisins,  dried 
figs,  dried  fruits  and  nursery  stock.  The  Watson 
ville   Apple    Annual    Association      will      take      2500

AY  GIRLS,  IF  YOU'VE  NEVER 
visited  a  Native  Sons  Parlor,  just 
find  some  excuse  and  go  right  away. 
It's  great!  At  least,  what  I  saw  of 
their  meetings  was  most  interesting. 
They  didn't  proceed  with  elections. 
etc.,  whiie  I  was  there,  but  I  pre- 
sume they  didn't  want  to  have  such 
uninteresting  things  going  on  while 
they  had  company.  Then,  you  know, 
some  men  have  an  iuea  that  all 
women  tell  everything  they  know, 
and  perhaps  that  is  why  it  seemed  like  recess  all 
the  time  I  was  in  the  hall.  And  you  snould  see 
their  regalias!  If  we  would  decorate  ourselves 
half  as  elaborately,  we  would  look  real  handsome, 
too.  You  see,  I  didn't  wait  for  them  to  get  their 
paraphernalia  locked  up,  and  anyway,  bad  you  seen 
the  officers  parading  around,  all  decked  out  in  their 
gold-embroidered  poppies,  you  would  have  thought 
just  what  I  did — that  they  were  proud  of  their 
beautiful  regalias,  and  because  they  were  elected  to 
wear  them,  they  were  glad  to  show  them.  If  there 
is  a  Native  Son  who  has  never  enjoyed  the  hospi- 
tality of  Fresno,  Petaluma,  Sevastopol  and  Santa 
Rosa  Parlors,  he  has  surely  missed  something. 

In  the  interest  of  the  Native  Sons  and  Native 
Daughters  homeless  children 's  work,  1  have  been 
visiting  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  Parlors, 
acquainting  the  members  with  t ho  progress  of  the 
work,  visiting  the  children  placed  noa  real  these 
Parlors  and  introducing  the  local  eh  Idren  's  rum 
mittee  to  the  child  and  foster  parents,  that  these 
local  Committees  may  do  the  visiting.  All  Pai  lors 
are  much  interested,  and  in  almost  every  instance, 
some  member  of  the  Parlor  visited  h  :s  :;-,;nilud  his 
willingness  to  give  a  home  to  some  homeless  baby. 
Petaluma,  Sebastopol  and  Santa  Rosa  Parlors  of 
Native   Sons  were   visited    in    two   evenings,   and   the

square  feet  and  make  one  of  the  most  interesting 
exhibits  of  California  apples.  Lindsay,  Exeter, 
Porterville  and  Dinuba  will  each  be  present,  show- 
ing   the   San    Joaquin    Valley    district.      Fair   Oaks, 


Sacramento  County's  future  Pasadena,  will  he  rep- 
resented with  oranges  and  olives.  <  >roville,  ( Jhico, 
\.  inters.  Red  P.luff  and  Corning  will  each  play  its 
part  towards  making  this  fair  a  representative  ton'. 

The  State  Inseetarary,  through  the  courtesy  of 
Mr.  Jeffrey  of  the  State  Horticultural  Commission, 
will  put  in  an  exhibit  of  beneficial  insects,  and  Lu- 
ther Burbank,  the  world  's  greatest  horl  icultnrist, 
will  come  in  with  an  interesting  exhibit  of  some  of 
his  novel  plants. 

At  least  $15,000  lias  been  subscribed  by  the  bus- 
iness men  of  Sacramento  and  the  fruit  men  of  the 
State  to  entertain,  in  a  fitting  manner,  the  dele- 
gates, but  their  entertainment  is  not  going  to  fall 
upon  Sacramento  alone.  Through  the  thoughtful 
courtesy  of  the  committee  of  fifty,  arrangements 
were  made  by  which  these  delegates  will  be  taken 
down  the  Sacramento  River  to  San  Francisco  on 
Sunday,  February  19th,  the  day  following  the  close 
of  the   fair. 

By  properly  rejiresenting  the  importance  of  this 
visit  to  California  of  these  Eastern  business  men, 
the  following  progressive  civic  organizations  of  San 
Francisco,  namely,  California  Promotion  Committee, 
California  Development  Board,  Chamber  of  Com- 
merce, Commercial  Club,  Merchants  Exchange,  Mer- 
chants Association,  "Association  of  Down  Town  Mer- 
chants, Wholesale  Fruit  and  Produce  Men.  Ass.»ci 
ation  of  Dairymen,  League  of  California  Home  In- 
dustry, Convention  League,  have  eaeh  appointed  ;, 
committee  of  one,  and  these,  after  a  conference, 
appointed  a  committee  of  three  to  work  out  details. 
The  above  organizations  are  to  entertain  the  dele- 
gates on  Monday,  February  20th,  and  Tuesday,  Feb- 
ruary 21st,  at  San   Francisco. 

If  you  are  interested  in  the  fruit  industry  of 
California  in  even  the  smallest  way,  you  cannot 
afford  to  neglect  this  Fair.  If  you  are  interested 
in  California  lands  and  wish  to  see  what  has  been 
accomplished  along  the  line  of  the  most  enlightened 
development,  you  cannot  afford  to  miss  the  Fair. 
If  you  are  not  interested  in  fruit  or  land,  but  are 
simply  interested  in  the  commercial  development  of 
the  State,  you  cannot  afford  to  stay  away  from  an 
exhibition  of  the  products  that  yield  such  a  won- 
derful revenue  to  the  State.  Your  co-operation  in 
making  this  Fair  a  success  will  tend  to  benefit  you, 
whatever  walk   of  life  yTou  enjdy.

ULRICH  VON  HUTTEN. 

An  appreciation  of  Ulricb  Von  Hutten  is  what 
David    stair   Jordan    lias   given    us    in    one   of   his 

late  I Us.     He  lias  chosen   to  do  this  because   I'l 

rich  Vim  Hutten  was  one  of  the  central  figures  in 
i  be  great  modern  si  niggle  for  freedom  of  t  hought 
which  began  some  four  centuries  ago.  A  long  line 
of  ancestors  had  he  who  had  figured  in  Germany's 
wars  but  he  was  nut  fitted  for  war  nor  a  priest  as 
his  father  had  decided  at  least,  but  young  Hut  ten 
took  life  in  his  own  hands  and  followeu  the  ad- 
vice of  a  friend  to  become  a  scholar. 

1 1  is  long  struggle  to  accomplish  this  is  i  nterest- 
ingly  tulil  by  the  author  and  though  we  grieve 
when  fate  is  against  him  at  times,  as  he  wanders 
from  place  to  place,  yet  do  we  rejoice  in  his  vic- 
tories, for  many  arc  the  courageous  acts  he  per- 
forms, never  fearing  to  stand  for  what  he  believes 
to  I"'  right.  Naturally  he  Dad  but  few  friends  but 
they  wriv  fast  ones.  At  the  time  of  his  death  and 
long,  long  after,  it  seemed  thai  he  as  well  as  his 
co-worker,  Martin  Luther,  had  accomplished  little, 
lnit  the  lapse  of  time  shows  that  the  harvest  we

not  collective.  It  is  concerned  with  life,  nut  with 
creeds  or  ceremonies.  In  the  high  si' use,  no  man 
can  follow  or  share  the  religion  of  a  nut  her.  His 
religion,  whatever  it  may  be,  is  his  own.  It  is 
buill  up  from  his  own  thoughts  and  prayers  and 
actions.  It  is  the  expression  of  his  own  ideals.

SON   OF   THE   WIND. 

"S )'    the     Wind."    by     Lucia     Chamberlain, 

ant  hor   of   "Coasl    of    Chance"    and    "The    I M  het 

Snh-   of    the    I '.'■    has   given    us   a    story   of    the 

W'i'si    ni    which    the    hero,   C'arron,    possesses   all    the 
romance   and    strategy    ol    the    typical    cowboy. 

"Sons  of  the  Wind"  is  a  beautiful  wild  horse 
ami  it  is  while  Carron  is  in  quesl  of  this  animal 
which  he  designates  as  "the  greatest,  fastest,  lone 
lies!  thing  thai  ever  travels  over  earth.''  thai  he 
is  led  i"  the  Rader  home  where  he  remains  through 
out  the  entire  story.  On  entering  this  home  the 
one  thoughl  uppermost  in  his  mind  is  to  gain  cer- 
tain information  whereby  he  hopes  to  I"'  able  to 
capture  "Nun  of  the  Wind."  but  ii  is  only  a  sliorl 
time  until  we  find  him  saying  to  t  he  heroine  of 
unr  story,  Blanche  Rader,  " When  1  came  to  this 
[dace  and  found  ymi  I  forgot  all  aboul  the  horse, " 
ami  so  out  of  the  struggle  to  gain  possession  nut 
only  of  the  horse,  so  dear  to  him.  1ml  the  girl,  SO 
dear  to   him   a  I  so,   the   story   shapes   itself. 

The  movement  of  the  story  is  well  in  keeping 
with  its  title.  It  is  wonderfully  dramatic,  ;i  thread 
of  mystery  hanging  over  all  throughout  the  entire 
book,  A  rare  gifl  t  his  author  possesses  in  t  hat. 
though  powerfully  dramatic  and  mysterious  is  the 
story,  yet  she  has  kept  it  a  clean,  wholesome  ami 
unt ertaining  unr. 


THEFT. 
The  dramatic  form  has  been  used  by  Jack  London 
I'm-  the  vehicle  of  his  latest  exposition  of  the  meth- 
ods and  murals  of  I  he  Big  Interests  and  hu  has  put 
into  his  play,  a  plot  that,  fur  all  its  expusitary 
purposes,  contains  much  rapid  and  virile  action  that 
holds  tin-  attention  completely.  The  story  renters 
a  I  iu  ut  tin'  struggle  fur  possession  of  a  package  of 
documents  which  furnish  the  absolute  proofs  to 
back  up  a  bombshell  speech  that  Howard  Knox,  a 
reformer,  is  to  make  in  Congress,  in  exposing  the 
corrupt  methods  of  the  Interests,  The  modern 
types,  the  strong  broadened  American  mother,  the 
reformer  idealist,  the  "owned*'  Senator,  the  jour- 
nalist-politician, the  old-fashioned  New  England 
wife,  an-  all  to  be  discovered  here  in  a  clear  delinea- 
tion and  the  love  plot  between  the  reformer  and 
Margaret  Chalmers,  tin-  wife  of  the  "owned"  Sena- 
tor, is  very  strong  and  decidedly  human.  Mr.  Lon- 
don succeeds  in  "showing  up"  the  aforementioned 
methods  and  murals  in  a  must  convincing  and  force- 
ful ma n lie r.  Judging  fru in  Mr.  London  's  work  in 
"Theft."  we  look  to  him  for  some  very  strong  and 
readable  plays,  fur  ''Theft"  is  a  mighty  good  and 

interest  ing    sturv.

Entertainments    are 
being    arranged    fur    the    benefit    of    the    fund,    and 
members  from  two  of  the  three   Parlors  have  made 
application  for  children  already.

Petal uma  I'arlor,  although  instituted  only  a  year 

ago,  ha^  a  membership  of  eighty — some  having  Keen 

initiated   on    I  lie   evening  of  my   visit.     The    Parlor 

is  now  the  proud  possessor  of  the  Old   Adobe  which

and  which  was  unco  the  furt  ress  home  of  General 
M.  ii.  Vallejo.  This  valuable  property  was  deeded 
to  them  by  W.  .1.  A.  Bliss,  a  professor  in  the  Uni- 
versity of  Halt  i  more.  The  Adobe,  although  never 
actually  a  fort,  was  provided  with  means  of  defense, 
ami  served  as  a  place  of  refuge  both  fur  the  people 
and  animals  during  frequenl  Indian  raids  in  the 
earlier    days.       It    stands    second    to    none    of    the    few 

remaining    relics   c?   Calif  jrnia's    past,    in    point    of 


historical    interest.      Already    the   Native  s.ms   have 

outlined  a  plan  to  make  this  one  of  the  must  at- 
tractive "f  California's  landmarks.  As  the  guest  of 
Dr.  and  Mrs.  Stewart  Peoples,  an  automobile  ride 
through  I'eialuma's  beautiful  country  was  much  en 
joyed. 

At  Sebastopol,  the  committee  on  homeless  child- 
ren is  much  interested  also,  and  Mr.  Kelley,  the 
chairman,  very  kindly  offered  his  touring  car  for 
the    afternoon,    when    several    children     were    visited, 

as  well  as  a  prospective  home  for  une  of  our  or- 
phans. In  the  home  ef  Secretary  K'u  n  shei  in  er .  sev-

safe  to  say,  that  if  the  proper  authorities  in  unr

soon  be  a   tine  Parlor  there. 

A   splendid   electric   car  service  between  Sebasto 


pol  and  Santa  Rosa,  made  it  possible  to  meet  the 
members    of   both    Parlors    the    same    evening.      Santa 

Rosa   Parlor    holds   as   members,   some   of   the   best 

known    men    in    the    State,    and    as    an    evident £ 

their  progressive  spirit,  they  now  possess  a  line 
building  in  which  are  handsomely  furnished  lodge- 
rooms,  banquet  hall,  dance  hall  and  club-rooms.  The 
members  are  especially    interested    in   t heir  library, 

in    which    are     man\      line     1 ks,    and    they    are    alsu 

contemplating  the  maintenance  ut'  a  section  of  Cali- 
fornia history  ami  fiction  in  the  city  library.  In 
the  cozy  club-rooms  a  large,  open  fireplace  gives  a 
cheerful  welcome  to  the  visitor  and  must  surely  be 
a  great  satisfaction  to  those  who  call  the  rooms 
"home. "  Already  there  is  in  evidence  in  this 
room  quite  a  collection  of  old  Spanish  relics  ami 
mementos    of   California's   early    days,    and    it    was

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


February 


Native   Home   Items  —  for  the   Education  and  Edification  of  the  Young 


(CONDUCTED   BY  AUNT  ELLA    AND  UNCLE  ADLEY  STERLING.) 


AN   OPEN   LETTER   TO    CHESTER   BOWELL. 
San  Francisco,  California,  December  28th. 

Mr.  Chester  Rowell — Dear  Sir:  It  was  with 
thanksgiving  that  I  saw  you  were  taking  a  hand 
in  the  grand  council  of  teachers,  superintendents 
and  supreme  masters  of  education,  as  told  of  in 
this  morning's  press.  I  knew  someone  there  was 
standing  for  the  WHITE  RACE.  "What  is  the 
cause  of  sorrow?"  asks  the  catechisms  in  Oriental 
philosophy.     The  answer  is,  "IGNORANCE." 

I  was  glad  to  see  you  made  a  stand  for  the 
teaching  of  "citizenship.'"  But  I  do  not  agree  with 
your  idea  that  men  can  teach  that  branch  better 
than  can  the  women.  Nor  do  I  believe  that  teachers, 
either  men  or  women,  can  do  this  as  well  as  can 
the  mother  in  the  household.  My  pioneer  father 
was  a  real  man,  and  was  successful  in  politics,  but 
we  learned  both  sides  of  every  question  from  our 
pioneer  mother — ana  there  were  seven  of  us  at 
her  knee.  I  believe  that  men  should  do  the  fight- 
ing and  the  voting  (which  after  all  is  one  and  the 
same  thing),  but  that  the  mother  should,  as  queen 
of  the  household,  instruct  her  children  in  the  duties 
of  citizenship.  Not  having  any  ballot  to  distract 
her  attention,  she  is  better  enabled  to  understand 
both  sides — and  both  sides  must  be  taught  the 
young.  Why  should  any  male  instructor  fill  the 
minds  of  his  class  with  his  own  prejudices,  or  why 
should  any  other  teacher? 

At  the  present  time,  there  is  a  woeful  lack  of 
something  going  on  which  is  undermining  our  Re- 
public. The  queen-mother  tries  to  teach  her  child 
manners,  as  expressed  in  the  old-fashioned  form  of 
address  using,  *  *  Yes,  ma  'am.  "  or  ' '  No,  sir, ' '  in 
replying  to  a  question.  By  the  powerful  edict  of 
some  teacher,  or  group  of  teachers,  this  home-taught 
touch  of  politeness  is  haughtily  opposed  in  our  pub- 
lit-  schools,  and  an  authority  superior  to  the  parent's 
will  is  thus  set  up  and  stubbornly  maintained  all 
along  the  line,  which  makes  the  child  despise  its 
parents.  The  claim  is  made  that  in  England  no 
one  but  servants  use  that  form  of  address.  I  lived 
there  for  four  years  and  discovered  for  myself  that 
servants  repeat  one's  name  all  the  time  (which  is 
very  disagreeable),  and  to  one  man  and  to  one 
woman  alone  the  nobles  say,  "  ±  es,  sir,"  or  "No, 
ma'am,"  ami  they  are  the  king  and  the  queen.  A 
little  knowledge  is  a  dangerous  thing.  Why  not 
in  our  land  accord  to  the  mother  and  the  father  the 
right  to  he  the  king  and  the  queen  of  each  house- 
hold, and  thus  receive  these  terms  of  affection  and 
regard  J 

But  why  do  I  trouble  you  with  these  things? 
Have  you  not  enough  else  to  occupv  vour  time? 
Yes,  but  this  is  vital  to  the  WHITE  RACE  of  our 
United  States.  I  was  made  glad  -by  your 
article  in  Collier's  two  years  ago,  when  our 
parents  were  becoming  restive  over  the  presump- 
tions of  an  alien  race  Hocking  in  to  sit  in  the  same 
schools  with  our  little  girls.  Now  you  know,  and 
I  know,  and  everybody  on  the  Coast  knows,  what 
that  means — a  lowering  of  the  standard  of  -our 
social  conditions.  Those  who  were  able,  withdrew 
their  little  girls  and  sent  them  to  private  schools. 
But  why  should  we  not,  as  a  government,  protect 
all  our  little  girls?  Because  the  Japanese  were  too 
clever  for  us,  we.  had  to  yield  to  them  in  this 
matter;  temporarily  at  least.  Meanwhile  the  as- 
sociation must  still  go  on — weakening  the  bonds  of 
the  white  race.  At  the  same  time,  while  this  is 
going  on  and  a  general  dislike  for  the  Japanese  is 
being  generated,  what  do  we  discover?  An  increas- 
ing regard  for  the  Chinese  race. 

Why  is  this?  Because  they  are  known  to  us  of 
the  present  generation  from  babyhood  as  reliable,  as 
honest,    as    faithful.      My    pioneer   mother    had    one 


Chinese  who  remained  in  her  service  for  eighteen 
years,  until  his  return  to  China.  A  Chinese,  fifty 
years  old,  called  to  see  me  the  other  day,  and  I 
had  not  seen  for  over  twenty  years.  He  told  me 
he  had  been  all  this  time  with  t lie  same  family  and 
was  taking  care  of  their  property  while  they  were 
absent  in  the  East — that  mine  was  the  only  family 
he  had  ever  worked  for  since  bis  coming  to  America 
besides  this  one.  And  these  stories  can  be  dupli- 
cated by  the  thousands.  What  do  we  learn  from 
them  but  this:  That  in  the  fiber  and  constitution 
of  the  Chinese  there  is  something  substantial  and 
enduring;  that  they  succeed  in  educating  their  chil- 
dren into  a  kind  of  "universal  citizenship"  that 
makes  for  reliability  everywhere.  That  is  the  sort  of 
thing  we  should  be  aiming  for  in  the  education  of 
the  children  of  the  United  States. 

Shall  we  send  a  commission  to  China  to  find  out 
the  secret  of  this  success?  It  is  not  necessary — all 
we  have  to  do  is  to  turn  to  our  own  Ten  Command- 
ments and  emblazen  on  the  walls  of  our  school- 
houses  that  one  which  reads  thus:  "Thou  shalt 
honor  thy  father  and  thy  mother,  that  thy  days  may 
be  long  in  the  land  which  the  Lord,  thy  God  giveth 
thee. ' ' 

It  is  ignorance  which  makes  us  in  our  press,  and 
in  our  schools,  and  in  familiar  discourse,  sneer  at 
the  powers  of  the  older  ones  and  exalt  the  immature. 
To  the  Chinese  it  has  become  a  religion  to  venerate 
his  ancestors.  But  we,  in  our  foolishness,  disdain 
them.  The  mere  fact  of  having  reverence  at  all  for 
anything  helps  to  develop  character  and  gives 
stamina  to  any  race.  But  we  are  fast  creating  a 
nation  of  mockers  and  jibers.  It  is  an  abnormal 
state  of  affairs — it  looks  as  if  we  wanted  to  go  to 
ruin  in  a  hurry.  This  worship  of  learning  from 
books,  irrespective  of  ethics,  or  of  morals,  or  man- 
ners, or  common,  ordinary  every  day  politeness  is 
a  bad  policy.  These  things  were  not  evolved 
from  savage  times  through  thousands  of  years  for 
nothing.  They  were  found  to  be  necessary.  Then 
why  should  we  omit  them  from  the  training  of  our 
children  in  the  public  schools? 

It  is  a  sorrowful  fact  that  we  are  coining  face  to 
face  witli  a  situation  that  is  alarming  in  its  mean 
ing  for  the  native-born  of  our  beautiful  Mother 
State  of  California.  We  need  only  to  look  into  the 
matter  to  discover  that  the  native  born  cannot  hold 
their  own  against  the  foreigner  in  the  battle  for 
daily  bread.  When  the  Scotch  contractor  finds  he 
must  cut  down  nis  force,  the  first  to  go  are  the 
native-born.  In  all  sorts  of  trade  and  work  it  is 
the  foreigner  or  the  easterner  who  remains  safely 
holding  down  his  job.  Now  why  is  this?  Because 
these  two  are  more  substantial,  more  thorough,  more 
polite  in  their  industrial  training.  It  may  be  con- 
sidered a  nice  thing  to  teach  young  California  thai 
he  is  boss  of  all  he  surveys,  but  lie  should  not  be 
offensive  about  it.  A  little  modesty  is  a  beautiful 
thing  when  a  fact  is  self  evident.  We  may  say  that, 
in  these  days  of  quick  transportation,  telephones  and 
airships,  to  brag  is  the  proper  thing.  But  my 
pioneer  mother  taught  me  explicitly,  "Brag  may 
be  a  good  dog,  but  Hold-Fast  is  a  better  one." 

Many  is  the  braggart  I  have  seen  go  down  in 
the  dust,  while  the  hold  fast  is  still  jogging  along 
happily  and  comfortable.  The  facts  .'>f  human  life 
have   not   changed   one  jot  or   tittle  because   of   im- 


proved  machinery — we  are  -born  in  the  same  way, 
we  marry  or  not  in  the  same  way,  and  we  die  in 
the  same  old  style  as  did  the  ancients.  We  have 
less  art,  less  poetry,  less  charm  of  life,  and  are 
more  crude  than  we  were  fifty  years  ago.  Our 
present- day  Knglish  is  proof  of  that.  1  can  show 
you  letters  from  a  forty-niner  to  "the  girl  he  left 
behind  him,"  which  are  couched  in  language  equal 
to  Washington's. 

Because  the  children  go  to  school  now  eight  years 
instead  of  two  or  three  is  no  proof  that  they  know 
more  than  did  the  generation  before  them.  And 
that  they  know  less  of  good  common-sense  methods 
is  apparent  in  a  few  moments  of  conversation  with 
them.  The  girls  may  discourse  learnedly  about 
Euripides,  or  the  boy  of  Xenophon.  That  is  no 
proof,  however,  of  their  ability  to  lay  bauds  on 
life  and  survive,  as  did  their  parents,  under  stress 
and  hardship,  ami  even  then  retain  that  grand  man- 
ner which  made  social  life  so  delightful  in  the  days 
past  and  gone.  There  is  no  respeet  left  for  any 
thing.  Having  already  eclipsed  their  parents,  the 
common  attitude  is  that  they  might  as  well  step 
down  and  out,  and  be  done  with  it.  It  is  certaiulv 
the  most  unlovely  thing  yet  evolved  under  our 
present-day  methods  of  education. 

Can  you  not  include  in  your  scheme  for  teaching 
.  citizenship  the  idea  of  respect  and  reverence  for 
parents;  of  courtesy  to  the  gray  hairs  of  the  elderly; 
of  regard  for  our  English  speech;  of  a  kindly  bear- 
ing toward  all  with  whom  we  come  in  contact  as 
an  effort  against  that  style  of  manners  so  prevalent 
which  they  now  uesignate  as  "  rough-house. ' '  and 
in  favor  of  law  and  order  ?  How  can  we  have 
loyalty  to  our  Government  unless  it  be  grounded 
on  faithfulness  to  the  first  principles  of  our  home- 
life? 

Benjamin  Franklin,  the  poor  apprentice  lad,  be- 
came past  grand  master  of  diplomatic  speed)  over 
a  century  ago,  and  sat  down  with  kings  in  his  mis- 
sion abroad  during  the  War  of  the  Revolution.  It 
was  his  perfectly  stately,  yet  simple  manner  of  ad- 
dress that  brought  him  such  power  in  that  critical 
hour  of  our  Republic's  need.  It  is  the  result  of 
infinite  ignorance  on  the  part  of  teachers,  both  men 
and  women,  at  this  present  time,  which  is  respons- 
ive for  this  woeful  lack  now  going  on  and  which 
is  undermining  our  Republic  here  at  home.  The 
children,  both  rich  and  poor,  need  manners,  and 
respect,  and  stamina  put  into  them  more  than  they 
need    Euripides  or  Xenophon. 

Why  do  you  yourself  (aided  by  a  group  of 
earnesl  men  and  women )  not  compile  a  handbook 
of  citizenship  suited  to  these  needs  for  home  read 
ing  by  both  parents  and  children?  What  we  need 
now  is  to  get  the  children  and  the  parents  together, 
not  to  separate  them,  for  the  mothers  and  the 
fathers  of  many  of  them  (especially  the  foreign- 
born)  know  more  than  can  be  found  in  all  the 
books — and  that  is  how  to  give  honest  work  to  the 
world.  That  is  why  they  can  come  to  this  coun- 
try and  succeed,  while  our  native-born  are  in 
danger  of  losing  their  heritage.  I  repeat  it — Honest 
Work!      That    is  the   best    proof   of  good   citizenship. 

Now,  with  all  admiration  for  your  fearless  course 
on  this  most  important  matter  concerning  our  na- 
tional   welfare,    I    am    very    sincerely    yours,

MISSION    SAN  FRANCISCO  DE  SOLANO,  AT  SONOMA. 

Assemblyman  Herbert  Slater  has  introduced  in  the  Legislature  a  bill  appropriating  $5000  for  the  res- 
toration of  San  Francisco  de  Solano  Mission,  situated  at  Sonoma.  This  was  the  last  of  the  missions  to 
be  built,  and  was  constructed  in  1S34.  It  stands  to  one  side  of  the  Plaza  at  Sonoma,  on  which  the  Bear 
Flag  was  flung  to  the  breeze.  This  mission  is  owned  by  the  State  of  California,  but  would  have  been 
entirely  destroyed  had  not  the  Sonoma  Valley  Woman's  Improvement  Club  raised  ft  fund  to  temporarily 
save  it.

fornia  products  by  the  individuals  of  our  State  up 
t«>  this  time  and  since  tin*  institution  of  the  Some 
Industry  League's  campaign,  and  the  aid  given  by 
i  he  various  publications,  and  commercial  and  civic 
organizations  of  the  State  to  urge  the  buying  of 
same,  but  by  tin'  now  spirit  inspired  by  the  pro 
gressive  advertising  campaign  of  the  League  and 
the  many  men  who  have  taken  interest  in  the 
movement.  The  result  is  to  be  that  the  new  era 
of  prosperity  brought  about  by  the  patronizing  of 
home  i  ml  list  ry  will  prevail;  and  the  teaching  of 
what  California  will  manufacture  and  produce  in 
the  future,  and   what   we  are  in   really  accomplish 

through    this    knowledge    of    same,    is    assured. 

Home  industry  and  the  necessity  of  patronizing 
same  is  m>w  an  established  fact,  It  is  logical,  dom 
inant.  persuasive.  It 
is  o  u  r  commercia  I 
life.  It  is  creative, 
forceful  and  prolific. 
Tt  is  the  future  and 
rapidly  developing 
process  of  *  'al  ifor- 
nia  's  success,  and  the 
people    are    only     now 

beginning  to  find  it 
out  in  the  recogni 
tion  of  same.     There 

were  some  who  in  tin- 
past  li  el  i  e  V  e  d  it 
mythical,  ephemeral, 
artificial  ami  narrow 
— while  there  were 
others  who  only  used 
it  as  a  means  to 
make  capital  of  and 
were  presumably  tak- 
i  n  g  advantage  of 
its  transitory  exist  - 
ence,  as  they  believ- 
ed, but  did  not  say. 
But  that  sentiment 
has  changed  very 
materially.       T  h  e  r  e 

are  few  at  the  present  in  that  frame  of  mind,  com 
pared  with  those  in  the  past.  But  not  so  with  the 
Home  Industry  League;  there  is  no  hike-warm  feel- 
ing in  that  body.  They  have  proven  beyond  dis- 
pute, in  spite  of  opposition,  that  it  is  permanent 
and  binding;  a  body  wherein  lies  the  future  manu- 
facturing development  and  prosperity  of  this  great 

State. 

This  is  manifested  dynamically  in  the  tenacled 
grip  that  it  has  on  the  consumer,  retailer,  jobber; 
the  property  owner,  corporations,  city,  county  and 
state;  all  who  now  more  than  ever  realize  that  the 
economic  foundation  of  home  industry,  in  the  prac- 
tical utilization  of  our  own  resources  and  the  keep- 
ing of  money  in  this  State,  is  the  one  thing  that 
will  place  California  in  the  ascendant.  They  are 
all  flocking  to  the  banner  of  home  industry,  and 
they  are  going  to  stay  there — not  because  the  Home 
Industry  League  says  so,  but  because  reason  teaches 
residents  of  this  State  that  the  results  of  home  pa- 
tronage will  bring  money  into  circulation,  into  the 
State,  and  into  t  he  pockets  of  those  who  can  see 
the  feasibility  of  buying  California  products. 

It  will  lie  no  difficult  task  for  the  people  to  iden- 
tify the  products  of  California,  as  the  Made  in  Cali- 
fornia label  on  the  goods  manufactured  here  will 
impress  the  home  industry  idea  upon  them.  The 
ideal er,  the  retailer,  or  whoever  the  prospective 
buyer  may  be.  will  have  no  excuse  for  not  buying 
or  handling  California  products.  Surely  the  people 
will  see  the  advantages  of  buying  California  prod- 
ucts, for  it  is  only  economic  that  they  do  so.  Yet, 
it  is  strange  how  many  are  the  different  views  held 
by  the  average  man  or  woman  in  regard  to  home 
industry. 


Made  iu  California. 

To  most  people  the  patronage  "I  home  industries 
means  an  undivided  campaign  of  buying  for  those 
products  that  are  made  in  a  certain  locality  and  DO 
other;  while,  to  tell  the  t rut h,  the  patronage  of 
home  industries  is  one  of  the  means  of  creating  a 

demand  and  exploiting  the  various  products  of 
home  industries  iu  foreign  lands  ami  to  bring  trade 
to  this  market,  and  is  not  done  to  exclude  Eastern 
agents.  We  need  Kastem  goods  iii  a  great  many 
cases,  as    we   are    not    large   enough    in    some    respecls, 

or   developed    sufficiently    to    take   care   of   all    the 

business,  but  we  must  protect  and  develop  our  own 
indusl  ries. 

What  are  you  going  to  do  to  get  people  to  buj 
home  products!  is  the  query  one  Interested  in  home 

indusl  ry    is  obliged    to   answer.      ''What    is   the    11  nine 

Industry  League  going  to  do  to  get  people  to  buy 
home  products?''  First,  we  are  going  to  label  them 
Made  in  California;  then  create  a  demand,  for  them 
by  continually  putting  those  magic  words  before 
them:  Made  in  California.  Unlike  other  cities,  we 
are  not  going  to  say:  ''Made  in  Chicago,'*  "Made 
in  St.  Louis,"  "Made  in  New  York"  or  ''Made  in 
San  Francisco,"  but  on  broader  lines — Made  in  <al 
ifornia.  And  many  will  continue  to  say,  "The  con- 
ditions here  are  against  manufacturing  people  will 
always     buy     in     the     cheapest     market — you     cannot

expect  anyone  to  pay  more  for  a  local  product  just 
because  it  is  made  here,  in  preference  to  an  Eastern 
product  that  is  from  ten  to  twenty  per  cent  cheaper 
in    price. 

No,  we  don't  expect  anyone  to  pay  ten  or  say 
fifteen  per  cent  more  on  any  commodity  or  contract 
work;  but  when  it  is  less  than  ten,  or  only  ten  per 
cent  higher  than  an  Eastern  product,  we  expect  a 
local  buyer  who  contemplates  giving  his  work  to 
some  Eastern  concern  to  think  twice  before  sending 
it  and  consider  whether  he  will  ever  see  any  of  that 
money  again  if  he  sends  it  away.  While  on  the 
other  hand,  if  he  leaves  it  locally  to  some  firm  that 
is  doing  business  here,  employing  labor,  he  himself 
shares  directly  in  the  re-circulating  of  that  money 
that  goes  to  make  up  the  demand  for  some  of  his 
own  product  which  he  must  depend  upon  the  local 
consumer  to  buy  from  him,  or  rent  offices  in  his 
building,  or  stores  as   well. 

The  Home  Industry  League  does  not  expect  our 
own  people  to  give  an  exorbitant  price  for  the 
product  that  is  manufactured  or  prodticed  here,  but 
it  does  expect  them  to  give  consideration  to  those 
we  have  that  can  compare  with  Eastern  commodi- 
ties and  that  we  are  able  to  produce  on  an  equal 
basis.  Neither  is  the  League  going  to  intimidate 
people  into  buying  home  products;  but  it  is  en- 
deavoring to  educate  them  that  it  will  be  to  their 
advantage  to  do  so.  Tt  is  helping  our  own  people 
to  get  rid  of  that  very  foolish  idea  that  they  can't 
buy  things  to  eat,  wear  or  use,  made  in  California. 
It  is  proving  that  we  can  manufacture  machinery, 
construction  materials,  food  products,  men 's  and 
women  's  wear,  tonics,  beverages  of  all  kinds,  trunks, 
paper   and    w len    boxes,   fixtures,  art  glass,   leads,

a  l  so   thai    we  can   publish,   lithograph,  engrave  and 

paint  just  as  well,  and  e pete  with  equal  efficiency 

with   any   other  manufacturers   m   the  Country.      It    is 

illustrating  to  the  i pie  the  inconsistency  of  send 

ing   East   or  abroad   for   a   comi litj    jusl    because 

ii    comes    from    some    oilier    place    than    our    home 

Stale. 

Such    a    tendency  to   buy  nwa\     from    h<     ■ 

queer,    when    we   must    consider   thai    th maumer 

soul  li,  ninth,  east  ami  in  I  he  (hum  i  Content  to 
buy   here  and  thinks  our   products  are  all    right.      The 

absurdity  of  such  a  custom  would  really  be  laugh- 
able]   if   it   wasn  't    so    serious    to   our    future    manu 

fact uring.     Let  anyone  buying  ask    for  a  California 

product    and    just     for    curiosity    compare    it     with    an 

Eastern   article  by   wearing,  using  or  examining  it, 
ami    satisfy    himself    or    herself.       That     is    the    besl 
test — it   is  worth  a   trial,  anyway.      When    it    is  made 
in   California   yon    will    know    it    is   the   best. 
Why  Is  Your  Town  So   Quiet? 

As  a  San  Francisco  manufacturer  said  the  other 
day  when  asked  why  we  didn't  see  any  of  lus  prod 
UCt  on  the  shelves  of  local  retail  and  jobbing  houses: 
''  What  does  the  local  retailer  care  whether  we 
tnrive  or  not?  Why,  if  I  were  to  depend  on  local 
business,  T  would  have  to  go  out  of  business — I 
would  starve.  I  sell 
more     goods     iu     Seat 

tie,  Portland,  or  Los 
Angeles,     I  ha  a     I     do 

in  San  Francisco  or 
vicinity,  and  ye1  I 
live  here,  employ  la- 
bor, pay  rent  and 
taxes,  and  go  to 
make  up  an  econom- 
ic part  of  the  com 
munity.  Bui  what 
thanks  do  1  get  from 
my  fellow  cit  izens  I 
It's  a  shame!  Why, 
I    sell     more      Iii      Salt 

Lake  and  I  ten  \  er 
than  I  do  in  my  own 
town.  Do  ymi  call 
t  hat       consideral  ion  .' 

What    does   the   retail- 
or    care     whether     we 
have    factories    here? 
Then      you       wonder 
that    I    have    no    love 
for    local    ret  a  Mors    or 
jobbers.        Do      they 
do      the     same     thing 
in       Los       Angeles 
or    Seattle?      No.      You    go    to    either    one    of    these 
places  and   they  look  at   you  askance,  and   yet    I    sell 
them   more  goods  than    I    do   here." 

That  is  the  condition  that  exists  in  San  Fran 
cisco  and  the  bay  vicinity,  and  no  doubt  exists  in 
the  other  cities  of  the  State  where  manufacturing 
is  done.  Then  the  retailer,  who  is  beginning  to  Buf- 
fer for  more  business,  as  the  manufacturer  has  been 
suffering  for  years,  wonders  why  his  town  is  so 
quiet. 

It  is  up  to  you,  Mr.  Consumer  and  Mrs.  Consumer. 
How  do  you  expect  people  to  trade  with  you  or  ex- 
pect your  husband  to  get  business  or  secure  a  po- 
sition if  you,  Mr.  Consumer,  and  Mrs.,  too,  do  not 
patronize  your  neighbor  for  the  goods  that  are  made 
in  California?  Make  it  your  business  today,  tomoT 
row,  and  the  next  day  to  ask  for  Made  in  Califor- 
nia goods  to  eat,  to  wear,  to  use.  and  really  become 
an  economic  factor  in  the  community.  If  you  do 
this  yon  will  find  that  California  has  really  secured 

lis  own,  with  the  money  that  belongs  here,  without 
sending  it  back  East  to  develop  some  other  town 
and  taking  the  bread  and  butter  out  of  your  own 
ami   your   neighbors'    mouths. 

That,   is  what  the    Home    Industry   League   wants 

you  to  do — patronize  home  industry,  and  tell  voiir 
neighbor  to  do  the  same — if  you  want  to  improve 
business  in  this  State,  and  buy  the  product  that  has 
the  label   Made  in   <  lalifornia   upon   it. 

That  the  conditions  here  are  against  manufactur 
ing,  as  expressed  by  many,  is  as  absurd  as  it  is 
false,   and    is   the    weapon    used    by   some   of   the    East 

era   agents   who   cannot    sell    then-   commodities   on

SCHOOL  SEGREGATION   AND   ALIEN   LAND   BILLS  SHOULD   PASS 


From  the  import  of  bills  introduced  in  the  Legis 
lature,  we  are  led  to  believe  that  the  representatives 
of  the  people  of  this  State  have  become  alive  to  the 
Japanese  situation  in  California.  "While  no  doubt 
some  measures  will  be  introduced  that  are  non- 
sensical and  unjust,  there  will  be  others  that  are 
based  upon  close  investigation  by  the  proponents 
and  which  should  receive  favorable  consideration 
at  the  hands  of  the  legislators,  if  they  be  really 
concerned  about  the  welfare  of  this  State. 

Two  measures  proposed,  especially  appeal  favora- 
bly to  us,  for  they  have  in  view  a  correction  of 
evils  that  are  fast  working  toward  the  degradation 
of  our  State.  We  refer  to  the  bill  forbidding  the 
acquiring  of  title  to,  or  leasing  of  land  by  aliens,  and 
the  bill  providing  for  a  segregation  of  races  in  our 
public  schools.  Some  people  in  California  appear 
not  to  be  concerned  as  to  the  grave  dangers  that 
threaten  the  future  of  this  State  through  the  in- 
vasion of  Japanese  and  other  undesirables,  but  all 
will  some  day — and  that  not  far  distant,  either,  un- 
less remedial  laws  are  speedily  enacted — realize  the 
gravity  of  the  situation,  and  then  it  may  be  too 
late  to  remedy  the  evils. 

Right  now  is  the  time  for  the  passage  of  such 
laws  that  will  preclude  any  future  harm  from  such 
invasion.  Proposed  laws  should  be  carefully  con- 
sidered from  the  standpoint  of  the  best  interests 
of  California's  future,  and  fear  or  talk  of  war  with 
any  foreign  nation  should  not  deter  for  one  mo- 
ment the  prompt  action  of  our  legislators.  Sta- 
tistics are  abundant  to  conclusively  prove  that  this 
State  is  the  mecca  for  Japanese  and  other  undesira- 
ble foreigners,  and  unless  something  be  done  to  pre- 
vent further  encroachment  we  will  find  our- 
selves confronted  with  very  serious  questions,  and 
in  the  meantime  the  State  will  suffer  irreparable 
damage. 

Do  not  wait  until  the  horse  is  gone,  before  clos- 
ing the  stable  door.  Close  the  public  school  doors 
to  Japanese  and  other  undesirables,  NOW!-  Close 
the  doors  through  which  aliens  can  legally  own,  or 
lease  the  soil  of  California,  NOW! 

As  often  set  forth  in  these  columns,  we  are  not 
in  sympathy  with  any  jingo  anti-Japanese  legisla- 
tion, and  would  oppose  the  passage  of  any  measures 
that    dealt    unfairly    or   unjustly   with    any    foreign 


peoples.  Just  so  long  as  we  put  the  Japanese  upon 
an  equality  with  ourselves,  just  that  long  can  we 
expect  them  to  take  advantage  of  our  open-door 
policy.  Make  the  Japanese  understand  that  we  will 
not  tolerate  their  being  placed  upon  an  equality 
with  the  white  race,  and  we'  will  be  more  respected 
by  the  Japanese,  and  incidentally  save  ourselves  a 
great  deal  of  future  trouble. 

The  people  of  California,  not  the  Japanese,  are 
responsible  for  the  Japanese  situation  in  this  State 
today.  They  first  felt  the  public  pulse  and,  finding 
it  weak,  swarmed  into  the  State.  They  found  that, 
while  the  people  did  not  favor  the  idea  of  Japanese 
men  attending  our  public  schools  as  daily  com- 
panions of  white  girls,  the  people  had  not  a  suffici- 
ently stiff  backbone  to  demand  remedial  legislation, 
but  have  been  content  with  promises  of  relief.  What 
is  the  result'?  Get  an  honest  opinion  from  any  pu- 
lic-school  teacher  who  has  nad  experience  with  Jap- 
anese pupils — and  who  is  not  afraid  of  dismissal 
for  expressing  an  honest  conviction  after  close  in- 
vestigation— and  she  will  tell  yon  that  it  is  degen- 
erating. 

In  the  case  of  Japanese  land-owners  or  leasers,  we 
have  but  to  go  into  any  city  where  they  have  cen- 
tralized and  see  how  thoroughly  they  have  taken 
possession  of  certain  sections.  First,  one  came,  and 
then  his  white  neighbor,  being  unable  to  put  up 
with  the  conditions  surrounding  Japanese  tenancy, 
was  forced  to  vacate  and  sold  his  property  at  a 
sacrifice  to  other  Japanese.  What  is  tne  result? 
Go  into  any  of  our  cities  and  see  for  yourself  how 
thoroughly  the  Japanese  have  become  entrenched 
in  desirable  locations  and  how  perceptible  has  been 
the  decrease  in  surrounding  property  values.  And 
the  same  applies  to  country  uistriets. 

The  great  State  of  Califoi-nia  cannot  afford  to 
.longer  put  off  the  passage  of  such  laws  as  will  cor- 
rect these  evils.  This  should  be,  from  the  very  na- 
ture of  things,  a  white  man's  paradise — not  the 
mecca  for  the  undesirables  from  all  parts  of  the 
globe.  And  we  say  "undesirables"  advisedly,  and 
include  among  them  Japanese,  for  we  hold  that  any 
race  with  which  the  laws  of  the  State  prohibit  inter- 
marriage must,  of  necessity,  be  considered  undesir- 
able. California  would  have  but  to  follow  the  ex- 
ample of  Japan — which  prohibits  any  alien,  not  mar- 
ried   to    a    citizen    of    that    empire,    from    acquiring 


land — to  put  a  stop  to  the  Japanese  land-grabbing 
policy,  for  our  laws  prohibit  the  marriage  of  whites 
and  Japanese. 

As  an  example  of  the  dictatorial  policy  assumed 
by  the  California  Japanese — due  largely  to  our 
lax  laws  pertaining  to  their  settlement  here — we 
have  but  to  refer  to  the  statement  issued  for  the 
benefit  of  our  legislators  by  tne  Japanese  Consul  in 
San  Francisco,  even  before  the  present  Legislature 
had  been  completely  organized.  Surely  that  in  it- 
self should  make  our  lawmakers  cognizant  of  the 
needs  of  the  hour.  It  is  indeed  galling  to  have  any 
foreign  consul  tell  us  what  we  must  do,  in  order  to 
retain    his    government 's    friendliness. 

It  is  high  time  that  the  California  Legislature 
took  upon  itself  the  passage  of  such  laws  as  will 
secure  the  future  welfare  of  our  people,  rather  than, 
at  the  sacrifice  of  our  own  interests,  the  friendliness 
of  any  foreign  nation.  If  California  has  a  legal 
right — and  the  right  must  be  conceded,  since  it  has 
never  been  opposed — to  say  who  shall  not  inter- 
marry, it  also  has  a  legal  right  to  say  who  shall  not 
attend  our  public  schools,  and  who  shall  not  acquire 
title  to  or  lease  lands.  And  if  the  Federal  Gov- 
ernment had  no  legal  right  to  interfere  in  the  mar- 
riage question,  it  has  no  legal  right  to  inject  itself 
into   the   questions  at   issue. 

There  is  no  jingoism  in  the  proposed  public- 
school  segregation  and  alien  land  laws,  and  no  hint 
of  jingoism  should  prevent  their  passage.  Neither 
should  the  statement  of  the  Japanese  consul,  sent 
out  in  the  nature  of  a  threat,  delay  their  passage 
for  one  instant.  And  as  nruch  as  we  desire  for  San 
Francisco  the  Panama-Pacific  Exposition,  the 
"word"  recently  passed  out,  that  any  anti-Japanese 
legislation  would  lose  us  the  fair,  should  not  cause 
our  legislators  to  hesitate  in  doing  their  duty  toward 
the  people  of  this  State. 

Let  the  members  of  the  present  Legislature, 
which  has  been  heralded  as  representative  of  The 
People,  consider,  above  all  else,  the  needs  of  the 
State  and  The  People.  If  they  do  this,  and  are  not 
swerved  from  their  duty  by  fear  or  favor,  they 
will  readily  recognize  the  paramount  necessity  of 
passing  clean-cut  and  constitutional  laws  COM- 
PELLING RACE  SEGREGATION  IN  OUR  PUB- 
LIC SCHOOLS  AND  PROHIBITING  ALIENS 
FROM    OWNING    OR    LEASING    LAND. 


Two  appropriation  bills — one  for  the  restoration 
of  Mission  San  Francisco  de  Solano,  at  Sonoma, 
and  the  other  for  the  restoration  of  the  old  Greek 
chapel  and  Russian  fort  at  Fort  Ross,  Sonoma 
County — have  been  presented  in  the  Legislature, 
and  involve  a  total  expenditure   of  $7500. 

It  is  to  be  hoped  that  both  these  measures  will 
be  passed  without  opposition,  for  these  old  land- 
marks are  links  in  the  chain  of  our  State's  history 
which   should  be  maintained   intact. 

In  the  cases  of  the  landmarks  involved,  the  leg- 
islators should  unhesitatingly  make  the  necessary 
appropriations  for  the  work  of  restoration,  for  the 
reason  that  the  State  owns  the  property  and  should, 
by  preserving  its  old  landmarks,  set  a  commendable 
example  for  the  guidance  of  individuals  who  have 
in    their    possession    historic    landmarks. 

The  Orders  of  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters of  the  Golden  West  have  spent  thousands  of 
dollars  in  the  praiseworthy  work  of  restoring  land- 
marks in  which  neither  of  them  shared  in  title  to 
the  properties.  Surely  the  great  State  of  California 
can  spend  the  reasonable  sum  of  $7500  in  restoring 
three  of  the  State's  most  interesting  landmarks,  to 
which  the  State  itself  holds  sole  title. 

Petal unia  Parlor  of  Native  Sons  recently  se- 
cured title  to  the  old  adobe  home  of  General  Val- 
lejo  in  Petaluma,  and  immediately  set  the  wheels 
of  restoration  in  motion.  This  is  a  great  financial 
undertaking  for  the  members  of  Petaluma  Parlor, 
but  their  love  for  the  history  of  their  State  and 
reverence  for  the  historical  landmarks  associated 
with  that  history  will  remove  all  obstacles  and  the 
work  of  restoration  will  be  fully  accomplished. 

The  State  has  owned  the  three  Sonoma  County 
historic  landmarks  above  mentioned  several  years, 
yet  it  has  only  been  due  to  the  patriotism  of  the 
citizens  of  Sonoma  County  that  the  landmarks  have 


not  been  allowed  to  fall  in  ruins,  for  the  State 
has  done  nothing  to  preserve  them.  It  is  indeed  a 
shame,  and  a  discredit  to  the  commonwealth,  that 
these  historic  stones  in  the  foundation  of  the  State 
have  been  so  long  neglected  by  the  State,  and  no 
time  should  be  lost  in  appropriating  sufficient  funds 
for  complete  restoration. 

Every  dollar  that  honestly  goes  to  the  preserva- 
tion of  those  landmarks  around  which  the  history 
of  our  great  and  glorious  State  is  interwoven.,  is 
well  spent,  and  every  legislator  should  feel  proud 
of  an  opportunity  to  vote  for  any  appropriation 
measure  that  has  in  view  the  work  of  restoration 
and  preservation.  We  bespeak  favorable  con- 
sideration of  these  measures  by  every  legislator — 
when  convinced  that  the  several  sums  are  to  be 
honestly  and  judiciously  expended— and  would  sug- 
gest that  every  lover  of  California's  past  write  to 
the  Senator  and  Assemblyman  representing  his  dis- 
trict, and  urge  their  support  for  such  measures.

Here's  to  the  Board  of  Supervisors  of  Sacramento 
County,  who  have  decided  to  use  California  marble, 
instead  of  Eastern  marble,  in  the  new  court  house 
about  to  be  erected  in  the  Capital  City.  Their  ex- 
ample should  be  emulated  and  followed  by  others 
having  in  their  care  the  building  of  public  edifices. 
Californians  pay  the  cost  of  all  state,  county  and 
city  buildings,  therefore  the  products  of  California, 
in  which  our  people  have  their  money  invested  and 
which  tend  to  make  our  existence  possible,  should 
be  used  in  the  construction  of  such  buildings. 

It  has  been  amply  demonstrated  that  California 
produces  better  marble  and  other  building  materials 
than  any  other  state  or  country.  Why,  then,  should 
our  public  servants  for  one  moment  consider  the  use 
of  imported  building  materials  in  the  construction 
of  edifices  to  be  paid  for  out  of  the  taxes  collected 


from  the  people  of  this  estate?  Even  the  considera- 
tion of  outside  materials  is  discreditable  to  those  in 
charge  of  the  construction   of  public  buildings. 

Give  California  industries  a  chance.  Then  we 
shall  have  more,  and  finer  public  buildings,  and 
the  money  of  our  taxpayers,  spent  for  such  build- 
ings, will  be  used  in  the  further  development  of  the 
State's  industries. 


OFFICIAL  FLAG  FOR  STATE. 

The  Bear  Flag  is  to  be  the  official  State  flag  of 
California,  if  a  measure  introduced  in  the  Legisla- 
ture by  Senator  Holohan  of  Watsonville  Parlor  be- 
comes a  law.  The  State  at  present  has  no  emblem 
apart  from  the  National  Flag,  and  Holohan  believes 
that  the  old-time  flag  of  the  California  republic, 
with  the  bear  and  the  star,  should  be  adopted.  The 
bill  provides  for  the  length  of  the  flag  in  propor- 
tion to  its  width,  a  white  field  with  a  single  red 
star  in  the  upper  left  hand  corner  and  a  grizzly 
bear  walking  upon  a  grass  plat  in  the  center  with 
"California  Republic"  beneath.  The  Lake  Tahoe 
Grand  Parlor  of  Native  Sons  adopted  a  resolution 
favoring  the  adoption  of  the  proposed  flag  as  the 
State's  official  emblem.

Addresses  Native  Sons. 

Judge  John  A.  Barnaul,  a  Pio r  of  1849,  in  the 

following  paper  prepared  for  the  occasion,  gives 
many  interesting  personal  reminiscences  of  early 
days  in  California:  "Mr.  Toastmaster  and  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West:  A  few  days  ago  1  re- 
ceived an  invitation  from  your  committee  'to  relate 
what  I  saw  and  heard  in  California  in  its  earlier 
days.'  While  I  cannot  truthfully  say  that  I  seek 
or  desire  to  speak  al  functions  of  this  character,  yet 
this  occasion,  and  the  particular  feature  here  pre- 
sented, eails  upon  me  to  respond  to  your  request, 
not  because  I  may  say  anything  of  much  general 
importance,  yet  I  may  tell  you  of  something  which 
you  did  not  hour  or  see.  I  saw  and  heard  much  in 
the  early  days  of  California. 

■'It  was  im.\  lot  to  reach  tins  section  of  the  world 
in  September,  1849,  while  California  was  yet  a  ter- 
ritory, and  one  year  before  her  admission  into  the 
Union  as  a  Stat.-.  I  was  then  only  a  little  over  four 
years  of  age,  and  in  the  very  nature  of  things  at 
that  early  period  1  remember  or  saw  little  or 
nothing  worth  telling  you,  yet  of  the  early  period 
id'  this  State  I  remember  and  saw  much,  which,  by 
comparison  with  present  conditions,  may  be  of  in- 
terest  to  you. 

"My  father  'settled,'  as  it  was  called,  in  Sacra- 
mento Valley  hi  September,  1849,  with  his  family — 
mother  and  nine  children.  At  that  lime  our  family 
was  the  only  one  between  Sacramento  City — a  city 
mostly  of  tents— and  Marysvdle.  then  a  small  place. 
There  was  a  vast  plain— uninhabited,  except  at 
great  distances  a  rauch  house — from  Tehachapi  on 
the  south  to  Red  Bluff  on  the  north,  On  this  great 
plain  there  won'  no  fences,  few  houses,  and  few  peo- 
ple. The  rush  was  to  the  mines  for  gold — no  farm 
ing,  orchards  or  gardens, 

"The  cattle  and  horses  ranged  at  will,  a  'corral' 
only  was  to  be  found  at  the  ranch  house.  Once  :i 
year  there  was  a  rodeo,  when  the  cattle  and  horses 
were  'rounded  up,'  marked  anil  branded.  There  was 
practically  no  loss  by  stealing  in  those  days,  for  two 
reasons — because  the  men  who  braved  the  dangers 
and  hnms-.ips  of  those  days  wore  mostly  honest  and 
true,  the  .-ream  of  the  earth;  but  if  a  thief,  he  was 

hung  to  the  first  tree.  A  miner  with  perfect  se- 
curity and  safety  could  Leave  his  thousands  and  tens 
of  thousands  of  dollars  in  'dust.'  as  gold  was  then 
called,  with  his  blankets  in  the  cabin  while  he  went 
oil"  and  worked  in  his  mine,  or  prospected  for  gold. 
"In  tin-  very  early  days  the  mode  of  travel  was 
on  foot.  Many  ami  many  the  times  1  have  soon 
hundreds  of  Chinamen  pass  our  house  on  foot,  with 
big  boots  on.  In  those  days  a  Chinaman  go1  all 
i  he    leather   he   could    for   his   money,    regardless    of 

how    tin-    boot    fit.    and    with    his    bag    of    rice    at    one 

end  of  the  pole,  and  :it  tin-  other  his  mining  outfit, 
(he  pack  on  his  shoulder  swinging  himself  along  in 
:i  kind  of  a  dog  trot  gning  t,>  the  mines  for  gold; 
with  white  men,  they  were  barefoot,  with  their 
blankets  and  outfit  on  their  backs,  and  on  top  of 
t  he  pack   wort-  their  hoots. 

"All  wore  1  loots  in  those  days,  which  cost  from 
$75  to  $iiin  per  pair.     In  going  barefooted  the  white 

man    seems    to    have    l.een    more    economical    than    the 

Chinese.  A  meal  of  victuals  in  those  days  cost  a 
'pinch,'  that    is.  the  landlord  would   put  his  thumb 


and  forefinger  into  the  miner's  purse  of  gold,  ami 
the  amount  of  gold  dust  thai  could  he  taken  <>ut 
between  the  hull  of  the  thumb  and  the  forefingei 
was  o  'pinch,'  usually  aboul   two  dollars  and  a  half, 

flour  cost   one  dollar  a  pound,  eggs  :■  dollar  api 

salt  pork  ami  beans  'out  of  Bight.'  Now,  when  l 
hear  so  much  ami  rend  the  papers  teeming  with  ad 

verse    criticism    ahoiit    the    high    prices    of    flour,    meal 

ami  provisions,  1  think  of  the  early  pioneer  days  id' 

California,  and    I    conclude    that    the    writers   of    these 

articles  about   high  prices  now,  were  not  among  the 

early  settlers  of  the  Golden   West. 

"It    may    be    said,    however,    that    a    man    in    those 
days    could    make    money    in    proportion    to    t  he    high 

cost  of  living.  Some  time  ago  I  nod  Mr.  Burns  of 
Humboldt  County,  who  told  me  of  his  first  day's 
experience  in  California.  Somewhere  in  what,  is 
now  the  state  of  Nevada,  he  left  the  'train'  and 
went  on  ahead,  a  nudel.nek.  His  supplies  ran  out; 
as  he  descended  the  mountains,  hungry,  weary  and 
worn  out,  he  met  two  men  and  a  train  of  pack 
mules.  The  men  said  to  him,  'Where  are  you  go- 
ing?' lie  replied,  'I  am  going  to  California.'  They 
said,  'You  are  in  California  now.'  He  said.  'Well. 
I  am  going  to  get  something  to  eat  and  go  to  the 
gold  mines.'  They  replied,  '  You  are  in  the  gold 
mines  now;  conn-  with  us;  we  have  plenty  to  eat.' 
Without  hesitation,  he  accepted  the  invitation.  A 
few  miles  and  they  were  at  the  mining  camp.     Next

morning  they  invited  him  to  go  mining  with  them. 
He  did  so.  He  worked  half  a  day  mining,  'cleaned 
up.'  and  found  In-  had  taken  out  twenty  dollars  in 
gold. 

"After  dinner — miner's  biscuit,  salt  pork,  beans 
and  black  coffee — with  his  miner  friends,  he  went 
down  to  the  store.  There  were  the  storekeeper, 
other  parties,  a  boy  about  is  years  old  and  a  fel- 
low about  'three  sheets  in  the  wind,'  cavorting 
around  on  a  Mexican  pony  and  offering  to  bet  any- 
body twenty  dollars  he  could  run  on  his  horse  fifty 
yards,  turn  a  post  and  run  back  to  the  starting 
point  and  heat  any  man  on  foot.  Burns  took  the 
bet.      The   race   was   run   and   Burns   won. 

"Burns  had  an  old  pepper-box  pistol  which  cost 
him  'six  hits '  in  Missouri.  The  boy  wanted  the 
pepperbox,  and  Burns  sold  it  to  him  for  .+  17  in 
dust.  They  all  went  hack  to  the  store.  Hums  had 
won  the  race  and  it  was  n,s  'treat.*  He  called  the 
crowd  up,  seventeen  of  them.  They  all  drank  whis- 
key, ami  Burns  asked  how  much  he  owed  for  the 
whiskey,  and  the  storekeeper  said  $17.  A  dollar 
a  drink.  Burns  paid.  In  conclusion  Burns  said, 
'  The  first  day  I  was  in  <  'alifoi  nia,  1  mined  half  a 
day  and  made  $"jn.  I  ran  a  foot  race  and  won  $20. 
I  suld  a  six  hit  pepperbox  pistol  tor  $1 7.  I  paid 
+  17  for  whiskey,  and  was  ahead  $40,  and  I  didn't 
give  a  for  tne  high  cost  of  living,  either.'

To    prepare   the   loam   and   clay   banks 

For    the    people    of    her    dream. 

And    her    Spreading    waste    of    waters 

Measured   far  the  azure  day, 
While    the    Moon,    the   lovely   wand'rer. 
In    its  mirror  traced  her   way. 

Hut  the  imprisoned  river  fretted, 
Surged   against   the   mountain   walls, 

For  she  heard  the  West  wind's  message 
And  the  ocean's  mingled  call. 

And   the   mountain,   wise,   fore-seeing, 
Kent  the  barrier  deep  and  wide; 

Then  the  river  sped,  glad-hearted, 
And   the  ocean   claimed   his   bride. 

Through    th'   encircling  bay  she   hurried, 
Where    the    great    cliffs   stand    in    stale. 

And  the  sun   in   pageant   splendid, 
Led   her  through  the  Golden  Gate.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


Feb:

•y  TATING  IN  SAN  FRANCISCO 
city  about  three  -weeks,  was  all  I 
could  stand.  I  had  seen  the  Pacific 
Ocean,  the  Golden  Gate',  the  Bay 
of  San  Francisco,  the  Seal  Rocks 
and  other  places  of  interest.  This 
completed  and  rounded  out  my  trip 
to  California.  I  bought  some  new 
clothes  and  a  carpet  sack  in  which 
to  put  my  change,  made  some  pur- 
chases, and  after  paying  my  board 
bill  took  the  steamer  for  Sacra- 
mento City.  As  the  boat  was  swinging  away  from 
the  wharf,  I  went  to  the  upper  deck  to  get  a  view 
of  the  Golden  Gate  from  the  bay.  In  this  way  I 
got  a  view  of  the  water  way  and  both  its  bold, 
rock-bound  shoreliness,  that  was  worth  all  my  trip 
had  cost  me.  The  steamer  arrived  at  Sacramento 
early  the  next  morning,  and  after  breakfast,  I 
booked  and  paid  my  fare  for  the  Marysville  stage, 
which  was  to  leave  at  10  a.  m.  I  arrived  in  Marys- 
ville at  3  o'clock  in  the  afternoon. 

I  found  Sam  Kineard  that  evening.  Sam  had 
found  a  partner  with  about  the  same  amount  of 
funds  as  he  had  and  wanted  to  get  into  some  kind 
of  business  pursuit.  A  new  mining  section  had 
been  discovered  on  the  Honcut  and  a  number  of 
miners  were  going  there  -and  locating  claims  to 
work  as  soon  as  the  rainy  season  set  in.  At  this 
place  Sam  and  his  partner  had  established  a  store 
and  were  furnishing  supplies  to  the  new-comers, 
hauling  their  freight  with  a  four-mule  team  that 
they  had  purchased.  Sam  insisted  that  I  should 
wait  two  or  three  days  and  go  up  with  him  and 
I  could  do  some  prospecting  there.  This  proposition 
suited  me,  and  I  accepted. 

I  was  stopping  at  the  United  States  Hotel  when, 
between  10  and  11  o'clock,  word  came  into  town 
that  Sheriff  Buchanan  had  been  shot  and  was  dead 
at  the  Mexican  camp  on  the  Yuba  River,  three 
miles  above  town.  The  news  spread  rapidly  through 
the  city,  and  every  saddle  horse  or  conveyance  of 
any  kind  that  could  be  used  was  in  demand.  It 
was  a  wild  night  in  Marysville.  The  Sheriff  had 
received  word  in  the  afternoon  that  Joaquin 
Murietta,  who  was  wanted  by  the  authorities  for 
murders  committed  in  the  southern  mines,  was  at 
the  camp  used  by  the  Mexican  packers  who  were 
engaged  in  carrying  goods  to  the  mines  where  it 
was  impossible  to  go  with  loaded  wagons.  He 
started  out  after  dark  and  took  with  him  a  small 
posse  to  reconnoiter  in  the  vicinity  of  the  camp, 
and  while  in  the  act  of  passing  under  the  bars 
of  a  corral  was  shot  in  the  back,  dying  where  he 
fell. 

Sam  did  not  start  out  with  his  loaded  wagon  and 
four  mules  the  next  morning,  as  he  wanted  to 
await  the  return  of  the  many  posses  that  were 
out  scouring  the  country  in  every  direction  for 
the  murderer.  Several  Mexicans  were  brought  in, 
but  none  answered  the  description  of  Joaquin.  The 
next  morning  I  was  on  my  way  to  the  mountains 
with  Sam,  with  whom  I  stayed,  a  few  days,  and 
then,  by  way  of  Stringtown,  returned  to  my  camp 
at  Miller's  Bar,  on  the  Middle  Fork  of  Feather 
River.  Henry  and  Tom  Harris  were  glad  to  see 
me.  They  had  done  very  well  while  I  was  away, 
working  over  ground  that  had  been  previously 
worked.  The  Elliot  brothers  were  offering  their 
claim  for  sale,  the  price  asked  being  one  hundred 
ounces.  Harris  and  I  bought  them  out,  and  on 
the  Sunday  morning  following  the  purchase  we 
assisted  the  Elliot  brothers  to  carry  their  two  years' 
accumulation  of  precious  metal  to  Bidwell  's  Bar. 
The  treasure  was  in  buckskin  purses  containing 
one  hundred  ounces  each,  and  in  two  packages, 
each  containing  six  sacks — in  all,  one  hundred 
pounds  troy  weight.  In  two  months'  work,  with 
hired  help,  Harris  and  I  got  our  purchase  money 
back  and  small  wages  besides.  A  big  freshet  came 
in  January  and  drove  us  out.  The  river  kept  up, 
and  the  claim  was  laid  over  until -the  water  should 
get  lower. 

I  went  up  to  Union  Bar  to  prospect  a  gravel  hill 
that  I  knew  of  a  short  distance  above  the  bar. 
The  gravel  showed  gold  each  pan  I  washed.  Two 
men  I  had  formed  an  acquaintance  with  joined  me 
in  bringing  water  to  the  hill  from  a  ravine  that 
promised  to  furnish  water  to  work  with,  but  after 
working  two  weeks  the  water  gave  out.  We  made 
a  little  over  one  hundred  dollars  each.  Now  I  had 
an  interest  in  two  paying  claims  that  could  not  be 
worked  for  causes  over  which  I  nad  no  control, 
one  directly  the  reverse  of  the  other. 

A  few  days  after  we  quit  work,  word  was  sent 
to  Stringtown  that  Bell  and  McGee  had  been  killed 
by  the  Indians  when  coming  out  from  their  claim 
on  the  Middle  Fork  of  Feather  River,  about  fif- 
teen miles  above  Bidwell 's  Bar.  Bell  was  killed 
in  his  tracks.  McGee  was  left  for  dead,  but  after 
the  Indians  retreated  he  revived  and  walked  to 
the  post,  but  as  he  entered  said  "Indians!"  and 
dropped  dead.  Both  men  had  lived  in  Stringtown 
and    hau    many    friends    and    acquaintances;    they 


A    Pioneer    in    the 

Land    of 
The    Setting    Sun 

BY  W.   J.    ORGAN. 

(Continued    From    January     Number.) 

were  liked  by  an  who  ever  came  in  contact  with 
them.  A  posse  of  eight  or  ten  men  volunteered  to 
go  to  the  rancheria  and  demand  the  murderers.  On 
their  arrival,  and  the  Indians  being  .nformed  of 
tne  cause  of  their  armed  and  hostile  appearance,  the 
latter  denied  any  of  their  tribe  had  committed  the 
aeed.  But  they  were  told  that  the  evidence  against 
them  was  conclusive  and  that  they  would  have  to 
produce  the  muraerers  or  suffer  extermination  or  be 
driven  out  of  the  country. 

The  chief,  who  had  been  named  Ceasar  by  the 
miners  in  this  section,  and  some  of  his  warriors 
were  away.  Nothing  could  be  done  without  the 
presence  of  the  chief.  The  posse  returned  to 
Stringtown,  taking  five  Indians  with  them  to  hold 
as  hostages,  telling  the  others  that  they  would 
never  return  until  the  murderer  or  murderers  were 
brought  and  delivered  up  at  Stringtown.  Among 
those  taken  as  hostages  was  the  medicine  man  of 
the  rancheria.  It  was  in  the  morning  of  the  third 
day  after  the  return  of  the  posse  that  ten  or 
twelve  Indians  crossed  the  river  at  Union  Bar, 
having  as  captives  the  two  murderers  of  Bell  and 
McGee,  to  be  delivered  at  Stringtown  and  get  the 
hostages  released. 

Eating  breakfast  and  changing  my  clothes,  I 
started  for  Stringtown,  not  that  1  cared  to  see  the 
hanging,  but  that  I  wished  to  take  a  look  at  the 
murderers.  The  crowd  was  gathering.  The  trial 
would  take  place  in  the  afternoon.  The  Indians 
were  locked  up  in  the  log  warehouse  back  of  the 
store  and  a  guard  kept  over  them.  At  1  o'clock  a 
crowd  of  nearly  three  hundred  had  assembled  on 
the  open  space  in  front  of  the  store.  A  jury  of 
twelve  men  was  selected  from  the  crowd  and  an 
interpreter  was  present.  The  guard  brought  out 
the  prisoners,  and  their  captors  as  witnesses.  Dur- 
ing the  progress  of  the  trial,  all  questions  were 
answered  through  "the  interpreter.  1  was  standing 
near  the  jury  and  in  front  of  the  prisoners,  who 
stood  about  ten  feet  back  facing  the  jury,  when 
I  noticed  the  smaller  one  of  the  two  prisoners  was 
eyeing  me  close.  On  "taking  a  second  look  at  him, 
our  eyes  met.  in  a  gaze  of  recognition,  and  bound- 
ing to  me  in  a  few  steps,  he  locked  his  arms  around 
my  waist,  mentioning  several  names  of  persons  and 
places  with  which  he  knew  I  was  familiar.-  This 
scene  was  an  interruption  to  the  proceedings  of 
the  court,  and  all  eyes  in  the  crowd  were  turned 
on  me.  I  had  suddenly  gained  a  prominence  that 
was  embarrassing  and  uncomfortable.  The  jury 
wanted  to  know  what  it  all  meant. 

I  told  them  that  last  May  I  went  from  String- 
town  to  Rieh  Gulch,  on  the  divide  between  the 
West  Branch  and  the  North  Fork  of  Feather  River, 
where  twenty-five  or  thirty  miners  were  working. 
All  their  supplies  had  to  be  packed  across  the  steep 
canyon  of  the  West  Branch,  and  Indians  were 
generaly  employed  to  do  it.  This  Indian  was  one 
of  those  that  did  the  packing,  and  often  was  sent 
on  errands  by  the  miners.  He  and  another  Indian 
were  with  three  other  miners  and  myself  on  a  pros- 
pecting trip  for  four  days  and  did  the  packing. 
The  jury  deliberated  a  few  minutes,  and  declared 
him  "not  guilty."  The  other  Indian  I  could  not 
vouch  for,  and  he  was  condemned  and  hung. 

The  one  that  was  cleared  made  his  way  back  to 
Neal's  ranch  and  told  all  that  had  occurred — how 
they  were  kidnapped  by  Caesar's  tribe,  taken  to 
Stringtown  and  delivered  up  as  the  murderers  of 
Bell  and  McGee,  and  that  he  only  escaped  the  fate 
of  the  Indian  that  was  taken  with  him  by  an  Ameri- 
cano whom  he  had  packed  for  at  Rich  Gulch  and 
knew  him.  This  turn  of  the  case  was  not  long  in 
reaching  Stringtown,  with  threats  of  prosecution 
of  the  mob.  A  much  stronger  force  than  the  first 
one  was  now  sent  to  the  rancheria  of  the  Indians. 
The  location  of  the  camp  and  surroundings,  as  well 
as  the  road  leading  thereto,  were  well  known.  A 
night  march  that  would  take  them  to  the  rancheria 
before  daylight  was  planned  and  executed.  When 
the  Indians  awoke  in  the  morning  they  found  their 
abodes  surrounded  by  a  hostile  and  determined 
force,  against  whom  any  resistance,  or  attempt  to 
escape,  meant  death.  A*  pow-wow  was  had,  all  the 
warriors  and  great  men  of  the  tribe  being  present, 
as  well  as  the  interpreter,  who  had  come  with  the 
expedition.  The  Indians  were  told  to  bring  forth 
the  chief,  but  replied  that  he  was  not  in  camp,  and 
a  detail  sent  to  search  the  camp  for  Caesar,  failed 


to  find  him.  By  the  expedition,  it  was  decided  to 
do  the  same  as  was  done  by  the  first  posse — take 
hostages  for  the  delivery  of  the  murderer.  This 
time  they  would  take  four  of  the  most  prominent 
and  influential  men  of  the  tribe  as  hostages  for 
the  capture  and  delivery,  dead  or  alive,  of  their 
chief,  Caesar,  at  Stringtown.  The  four  were 
selected  from  the  crowd  and  were  informed  what 
they  must  expect.  Permission  was  given  them  to 
have  a  talk  with  some  of  the  warriors  present,  and 
the  expedition  was  soon  on  its  way  to  Stringtown. 

On  the  second  day  after  the  occurrences  above 
related  Caesar,  the  chief,  was  brought  to  String- 
town  by  the  warriors  of  the  tribe  over  which  he 
had  assumed  the  chieftancy,  and  delivered  as  the 
murderer  of  Bell  and  McGee,  and  on  the  next  day 
paid  the  penalty,  at  the  end  of  the  same  rope,  over 
the  limb  of  the  same  tree  on  which  the  innocent 
Indian  that  he  had  kidnaped  had  died  to  pay  the 
penalty  of  his  own  crime.  Caesar  was  a  bad  Indian, 
and  there  were  not  many  of  his  tribe  that  mourned 
deeply  at   his  taking  off. 

A  few  weeks  after  the  murder  of  Sheriff 
Buchanan,  two  bodies  were  discovered  in  the  brush 
about  fifty  yards  from  the  road  leading  from  Bid- 
well's  Bar  to  Marysville,  and  near  the  place  where 
the  Miner's  ranch  was  afterwards  located.  From 
their  clothing  and  appearance,  they  were  miners  on 
their  way  below,  and  presumably  from  Rich  Bar. 
or  Smith's  Bar  on  the  North  Fork  of  Feather  River, 
two  places  noted  for  their  rich  diggings  at  that 
time.  The  news  of  the  find  in  time  reached  those 
places,  and  word  came  that  a  white  man  and  a 
negro,  who  had  worked  together  on  Rich  Bar  dur- 
ing the  year  past,  had  left  the  bar  for  their  homes 
in  Missouri  with  considerable  gold  in  their  posses- 
sion, their  accumulation  on  the  bar,  known  to  be 
over  six  thousand  dollars.  This  tallied  with  the 
two  bodies  found  in  the.brush,  as  one  was  the  body 
of  a  white  man  and  the  other  that  of  a  negro. 
They  had  been  lassoed  and  dragged  from  the  road 
in  a  hurry,  robbed,  and  in  the  robbers'  anxiety  to 
get  away,  they  cut  the  loop  end  from  the  rope  leav- 
ing it  around  the  necks  of  their  victims.  This  was 
one  of  Joaquin's  favorite  methods  of  murder  and 
robbery,  and  this  deed  was  attributed  to  him  and 
his  band,  as  he  was  known  to  be  in  this  section  of 
the  State  at  that  time. 

A  few  months  after  this  deed  was  committed.  I 
learned  from  parties  well  acquainted  with  the  white 
man  and  the  negro,  not  only  in  California  but  in 
Missouri,  that  the  negro,  his  wife  and  two  chil- 
dren were  slaves  belonging  to  the  white  man's 
brother,  whom  I  shall  call  master.  The  white  man 
was  preparing  to  go  to  California  to  dig  for  gold, 
and  the  master,  desirous  of  securing  some  of  the 
great  wealth  that  was  being  taken  from  the  mines 
at  that  time,  proposed  to  his  trusty  servant  that  he 
go  to  California  with  his  brother,  and  work  with 
him  in  the  mines  one  or  two  years,  and  return, 
promising  him  three  thousand  dollars  and  the  free- 
dom of  himself,  his  wife  and  two  children.  The 
obligation  was  being  faithfully  carried  out  on  the 
part  of  the  negro  up  to  the  time  he  was  murdered. 

I  have  now  given  an  account  of  some  of  the  most 
exciting  events  that  occurred  in  this  section  in 
1851.  The  year  had  been  a  prosperous  one  for  the 
miner,  the  output  greatly  exceeding  that  of  the 
previous  year.  The  emigration  across  the  plains 
in  '52,  as  compared  with  that  of  '49  and  '50,  was 
very  light,  but  in  '52  it  exceeded  all  previous  years, 
and  suffering  from  the  want  of  food  was  greater, 
excepting  that  endured  by  the  emigrants  the  latter 
part  of  1849,  who  came  by  way  of  the  Lassen  route 
and  whose  sufferings  were  never  paralleled. 

My  wife  and  I  visited  San  Francisco  the  ninth 
of  September  last,  and  at  one  of  the  numerous  re- 
ceptions given  by  the  Native  Sons  and  Native 
Daughters  Parlors  met  three  of  the  survivors  of 
the  Donner  party — Mrs.  Wilder  (nee  Donner),  Mrs. 
Reed  and  Mrs.  Murphy.  I  had  been  to  that  part  of 
Nevada  County  where  the  Donner  Party  perished, 
several  times,  attending  to  county  business,  was  < 
familiar  with  the  country,  and  had  visited  the  site 
of  the  camps,  one  at  Donner  Lake,  the  other  at 
Prosser  Creek.  With  the  three  survivors  I  had  a 
long  talk.  Mrs.  Wilder  told  how  their  camp  at 
Prosser  Creek  was  constructed  with  poles,  one  cor- 
ner resting  in  the  crotch  of  a  small  tree,  the  other 
corner  posts  being  set  in  the  ground,  and  after 
the  frame  was  up,  poles  were  put  across  on  which 
the  hides  of  their  dead  cattle  were  put  to  shelter 
them  from  the  snow  and  cold.  During  the  conver- 
sation it  came  to  me  that  here  were  three  in  my 
presence,  of  the  flesh  and  blood  of  the  true  Pioneer 
seeking  the  Land  of  the  Setting  Sun  without  the 
lure  of  gold.  As  my  wife  and  I  viewed  from  our 
seats  on  the  sidewalk  the  richly  caparisoned  and 
panoplied  array  of  the  Admission  Day  parade  as 
it  passed,  I  was  proud  that  my  wife  and  I  had  con- 
tributed to  the  population  of  California  five  Native 
Sons  and  four  Native  Daughters,  with  sixteen  chil- 
dren that  call  us  grandpa  and  grandma.  Now 
Natives,  beat  the  record!     Good-bye.

Design    for    Handsome   Suburban   Residence 

(DRAWING  AND  DESCRIPTION  BY  PERCY  EISEN,   OF  EISEN  &  SON,  ARCHTS.,  LOS  ANGELES.) 


uiayvYtrtit 


The  architectural  illustration  shown  above  is  that  of  a  suburban  residence  erected  on  the  outskirts 
of  Pasadena.  California.  The  exterior  of  the  first  story  is  covered  in  cement  mortar.  laid  very  heavy  and 
left  rough.  The  second  story  is  laid  in  broken  courses  of  shingles,  while  the  roof  is  covered  with  green 
composition  roofing  which,  as  it  ages,  becomes  a  moss  green  in  color.  All  shingles  are  stained  a  lighl 
moss  green,  and  all  heavy  beams  and  trim   work   are  stained  a  dark  green. 

The  plan  of  the  building  comprises  living-room,  dining-room,  breakfast-room,  library,  reception  hall, 

together   with   a    large  bed-room   suite  on   the   first   floor,  and  four  bed-r ns  and  three  baths  on  the  second 

floor,  together  with  four  sleeping  porches.  A  billiard- room,  Store-room  and  laundry  are  situated  m  the 
basement.  The  first  floor  is  finished  in  oak  and  mahogany,  while  the  second  floor  is  finished  in  enameled 
white   on  yellow   pine.      Ample   servants'   quarters   are  provided    in   the   basement. 

This  type  of  house  is  admirably  situated  for  Southern  California  climate  on  account  of  the  large,  well 
ventilated  roof  space  which,  as  seen  by  the  photograph,  is  open  at  gable  ends,  allowing  a  free  draft  of 
air  over  -the   ceiling  joists,   thus   keeping   the   second  story  cool   in   summer. 


When  completed,  about  May  1st,  the  building  will 
be  dedicated  with  fitting  ceremonies,  and  all  the  Los 
Angeles  Parlors  of  Native  Sons— Los  Angeles  4o, 
Ramona  109,  Corona  196,  Sierra  Ma. Ire  235  and  La 
fiesta  236 — will  be  housed  there,  ami  consequently 
there  will  be  a  Parlor  meeting  in  the  building  every 
night. 


OAKLAND  PARLORS  TO  HAVE  HALL. 
The  Native  Son  Parlors  of  Oakland  have  secured 
plans  for  an  elegant  building  to  be  erected  in  ilia!

temporary  headquarters  near  Thirteenth  and  Broad- 
way, where  they  will  hold  meetings  and  maintain 
a  library  and  club-rooms.  The  temporary  quarters 
consist  of  three  rooms,  and  will  be  open  daily  for 
the  comfort  and  pleasure  of  members.  Piedmont, 
Oakland  and  Athens  Parlors  have  joined  forces  in 
this  enterprise,  as  well  as  tor  the  purpose  of  erect- 
ing the  Native  Sons  Hall.

Dramatic— Musical 


PROFESSIONAL 


HE  GIRL  OF  THE  GOLDEN 
West/'  Puccini's  grand  opera  deal- 
ing with  early  California  events  and 
persons,  based  on  David  Belasco 's 
drama  of  the  same  name,  has  been 
credited  by  all  the  New  York  crit- 
ics as  being  an  artistic,  dramatic 
and  popular  triumph.  But  New 
York  music-lovers  are  not  to  be  the 
only  ones  to  see  this  western  grand 
opera,  for  it  has  been  announced 
that  an  English  version  will  be  pre- 
sented throughout  the  country.  The  opera  as  pro- 
duced at  the  New  York  Metropolitan  Opera  House, 
drew  an  immense  audience  to  both  performances — 
in  fact,  the  house  was  completely  sold  out  at  ad- 
vanced prices  on  both  occasions.  Puccini  himself  di- 
rected the  production,  and  the  scenic  equijunent 
was  massive  and  in  keeping  with  the  scenes  upon 
which  the  opera  is  based. 

It  is  now  reported  from  New  York  that  Henry 
W.  Savage,  who  owns  the  English  version  of  the 
successful  opera — in  fact,  secured  such  option  long 
before  Puccini  completed  his  work — will  use  "The 
Girl  of  the  Golden  West,"  as  a  vehicle  in  which  to 
re-enter  the  operatic  field,  and  he  will  produce  the 
opera  in  English  in  every  city  in  the  country.  He 
will  provide  a  suitable  cast,  and  will  duplicate,  if 
not  improve  upon,  the  scenic  equipment.  Mr.  Sav- 
age has  won  fame  as  a  producer  of  English  grand 
ojieras,  but  he  believes  that  "The  Girl  of  the  Gold- 
en West"  has  so  much  merit  that  it  will  easily 
eclipse  all  previous  records  of  grand  operas  in  Eng- 
lish. 


Tetrazzini,  Famous  Singer,  Receives 

Tablet  From  San  Franciscans. 
The  memorable  street  singing  on  Christinas  eve 
by  the  world-famous  Tetrazzini,  before  a  gathering 
of  enormous  size,  had  a  fitting  culmination  in  the 
presentation  to  her  by  the  city  of  an  inscribed 
golden  tablet  of  love  and  appreciation  of  its  peo- 
ple. The  event  occurred  at  Dreamland  Rink,  where 
the  talented  diva  has  recently  sung  on  several  oc- 
casions to  audiences  of  5000,  with  many  hundreds 
unable  to  gain  admittance.  Recently  Mme.  Tetraz- 
zini wrote  as  follows:  "It  was  in  San  Francisco  I 
sang  for  the  first  time  in  this  great  country.  The 
people  welcomed  me  and  said  the  world  would  love 
me  some  day  as  San  Francisco  does.  But  I  love  no 
city  more  than  this  one.  It  is  a  joy  to  me  that  the 
California  Christmas  weather  allows  me  to  sing 
safely  in  the  open  air,  that  all  my  Iriends  mav  hear 
me." 


"The  Liars"  After  "The  Lottery  Man." 
"The  Lottery  Man,"  one  of  the  best  farces  seeu 
on  the  Los  Angeles  Belaseo  stage  for  some  time, 
has  been  having  a  long  run,  and  all  the  members 
of  the  Lewis  S.  Stone  company  are  well  cast,  par- 
ticularly Miss  Everhart  and  Mr.  Vivian.  Follow- 
ing "The  Lottery  Man,"  the  Belaseo  company  will 
produce  John  Drew's  successful  comedy,  "The 
Liars,"  with  Mr.  Stone  and 'Miss  Gordon  in  the 
leading  roles. 

Roberta  Leonard,  the  young  and  attractive 
daughter  of  Mrs.  Eva  T.  Bussenius,  a  Past  Grand 
President  of  the  N.D.G.W.,  has  signed  a  contract  as 
ingenue  of  the  Belaseo  company,  and  together  with

5th,  have  begun.  These  free  lectures  on  health,  hy 
giene,  etc.,  are  given  twice  a  month  at   Lam-  hall. 


The   new   sewer   system    is   proving   its   worth   by 
easily  carrying  off  the  rain  water  during  the  heaT 
iest   downpours.     The   system   is   well    planned   and 
the  construction  excellent. 


The  new  Custom  House  on  Washington,  Battery 
and  Jackson  streets,  now  approaching  completion, 
is   pronounced    the   finest    granite   structure    in    the

In  a  lee tu re  by  John  -  .  Young  read  before  the 
California  Woman's  Clu  -  on  January  18th,  he 
pointed  out  the  great  value  of  museums,  systema- 
tized under  departments,  as  an  aid  to  specialists, 
and  in  educating  and  enlightening  the  masses. 


San  Francisco  ushered  in  1911  on  New  fear's  eve, 
in  characteristic  fashion,  to  the  entire  satisfaction 
of  its  own  populace,  and  to  the  wonder  and  delight 
of  thousands  of  tourists  and  strangers  who,  in  turn, 
became  enthusiastic  participants  in  the  street  car- 
nival and  jollity. 


Several  miles  of  pipe  for  the  city's  new  auxiliary 
fire  system  lias  been  laid,  and  tested  at  450  pounds 
pressure,  while  considerable  progress  has  been  made 
on  the  reservoir,  which  lias  an  elevation  of  over  800 
feel  on  the  side  of  Twin  Peaks.  Lower  insurance 
rates  follow  the  lines  of  pipe. 


Material  for  the  Geary  street  municipal  street  car 

system  lias  been  ordered,  and  to  break  the  m< poly 

of  car  transportation  on  lower  Market  street,  by 
which  the  United  Railways  Co.  is  barring  the  city's 
line,  a  bill  lias  been  introduced  in  the  present  Leg- 
islature, which  is  certain  to  become  a  law. 


On  January  2nd,  the  annual  jaunt  of  the  Olympic 
Club  took  place.  The  members  walked  through 
Golden  Gate  Park  to  the  beach  below  the  Cliff 
House,  where  over  100  donned  bathing  suits  and 
gamboled  in  the  surf,  after  which  a  fine  luncheon 
was  enjoyed.     The  Boy  Scouts  joined  in  the  outing. 


Curator  George  Barron  of  the  Golden  Gate  Park 
Museum  is  preparing  an  artistic  surprise  for  visit- 
ors there  shortly,  as  he  is  arranging  a  loan  exhibi- 
tion of  rare  masterpieces  now  in  t lie  possession  of 
private  persons.  The  museum  is  always  well  at- 
tended, and  with  the  excellent  classification  of  the 
numerous  collections,  is  much  more  than  a  place  to 
merely  pass  the  time  in. 


The  San  Francisco  National  Guard  Armory,  on 
plans  newly  prepared  on  instructions  from  Adjutant- 
General  E.  A.  Forbes,  will  soon  be  started  on  the  lot 
185x245  at  Mission  and  Fourteenth  streets.  Citi- 
zens contributed  $60,000  towards  the  cost  of  the 
site.  The  armory  will  be  a  fine  structure  and  will 
house  twenty  companies  of  State  Militia,  which  the 
Adjutant-General  considers  the  highest  number  the 
building    should    contain. 


<>n  January  17th,  the  American  Institute  of  Ar- 
chitects assembled  in  convention  at  a  local  hotel. 
the  institute  generally  meets  in  Washington.  D.  ('., 
and  has  never  before  convened  west  of  Chicago.  But 
'ass  (.ilbert  and  Irving  K.  Pond,  now  [.resident  of 
the  institute,  were  here  during  the  Portola  Festival 
and  marveled  at  the  city's  rehabilitation,  and 
caused  the  191]  convention  to  be  held  here,  so  that 
the  many  modern  types  of  architecture  could  be 
Studied.  On  January  ISth,  the  architects  held  their 
session  at  the  open  air  Greek  Theatre  :icmss  the  bay 
at  Berkeley.  The  San  Franc isco  Architectural  Club 
held  a  free  exhibition,  in  conjunction  with  the  con- 
vention,  which    was   well   attended   by   the   public.

February 


Mining  Department 


Conducted  by  CALVERT  WILSON 


TATE  MINERALOGIST  LEWIS  E. 
Anbury  has  just  issued  a  mineral 
map  of  California  which  is  unique 
in  its  scope  and  completeness.  Upon 
its  surface  the  locations  of  mineral 
deposits  of  all  kinds  that  have  been' 
operated,  or  that  have  been  found 
to  be  extensive,  are  marked  and 
there  is  a  key  to  the  map  that  at 
onee  points  out  to  the  observer  the 
nature  of  each  and  every  deposit 
that  is  indicated  in  California's 
fifty-eight  counties.  The  map  is  four  by  five  feet 
in  size  and  contains  twenty  square  feet.  This  size 
has  made  it  extremely  valuable  for  use  upon  a  wall, 
for  the  letterings  and  other  markings  are  large  and 
easily  discerned  and  an  idea  of  the  vastness  of  the 
territorial  extent  of  California  is  at  once  suggested. 
There  are  about  fifty  mineral  substances  that  are 
mined  regularly  and  in  commercial  quantities  each 
year  in  this  State.  To  get  the  exact  locations  of 
deposits  of  the  fifty  substances  in  fifty-eight  coun- 
ties has  taken  time  and  a  vast  amount  of  labor  and 


The  gold  and  silver  deposits  are  found  in  more 
than  thirty  counties.  In  fact,  the  precious  metals 
are  more  widely  distributed  than  other  substances. 
The  map  indicates  a  great  distribution  of  copper 
deposits.  The  known  petroleum  fields  and  the  de- 
velopments in  each  make  up  another  interesting 
showing.  The  general  effect  of  the  mineral  map 
is  to  *furnish  an  immediate  bird's  eye  view  of  min- 
eral distribution.  In  this  connection,  interest  will 
be  caused  by  the  following  list  of  mineral  substan- 
ces that  are  mapped  with  definite  locations:  Anti- 
mony, argentiferous  lead,  asbestos,  asphalt  and  bi- 
tuminous rock,  barytes,  borax,  building  stones, 
cement,  clay,  coal,  copper,  chrome,  diamonds,  Fuller's 
earth,  natural  gas,  gold,  gems  other  than  diamonds, 
granite,  graphite,  gypsum,  infusorial  earth,  iron, 
lime,  lithia  mica,  magnesite,  manganese,  marble, 
mineral  paint,  mica,  mineral  waters,  nitre,  petro- 
leum, platinum,  pyrites,  quicksilver,  quartz  crystals, 
sandstone,  salt,  serpentine,  silver,  slate,  soda,  sul- 
phur, talc  and  soapstone,  tin,  tungsten  and  zinc.  The 
price  of  the  map  is  $1.50  bound  and  there  is  an  ad- 
ditional charge  of  20c  for  postage. 


California  Leads  in   Gold  Production. 

California  has  displaced  Colorado  as  the  first 
State  in  the  Union  in  gold  production,  according  to 
preliminary  figures  given  out  by  the  United  States 
Geological  Survey.  The  total  gold  production  for 
1910  was  $96,055,214,  the  increase  in  this  State 
amounting  to  $400,000.  The  production  in  Nevada 
for  tne  same  period  was  such  as  to  secure  third 
place  in  the  list  of  gold-producing  states,  putting 
Alaska  in  the  fourth  place.  Arizona's  production 
increased  $600,000,  and  it  has.  been  awarded  sev- . 
enth  place  over  Montana. 

The  country's  silver  production  in  1910  totaled 
$30,194,702,  and  showed  an  increase  of  1,717,195 
fine  ounces,  of  which  California's  proportion  of  the 
increase  was  1,225,346  fine  ounces.  Increases  are 
also  indicated  in  Arizona,  New  Mexico,  Utah  and 
Washington.  Montana  leads  in  the  list  of  silver 
producing   states. 


Rich  El  Dorado  Mine  To  Be  Developed. 
The  Placer  Herald  of  auburn,  in  a  recent  issue, 
says  that,  after  nearly  forty  years  of  sacrifice  to 
primitive  mining,  in  which  time  more  than  $3,000,- 
000  was  yielded,  the  great  George  Slide  Gold  mine, 
near  Georgetown,  El  Dorado  County,  is  to  be  de- 
veloped extensively  and  worked  on  a  big  scale,  with 
all  the  advantages  of  modern  machinery  and  expert 
direction.  A  company  of  Sacramentans  has  taken 
over  the  mine,  and  negotiations  are  now  under  way 
for  the  installing  of  ten  mills  at  the  mine  for  the 
working  of  the  ore.  The  first  mill  will  be  working 
before  the  first  of  February. 

Petroleum  Industry  To  Be  Advertised. 
State  Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury  reports  that 
great  progress  has  been  made  in  the  line  of  repre- 
senting the  present  status  of  the  great  petroleum 
producing  industry  of  California  in  publications 
bearing  the  official  imprint  of  the  State  Mineral 
Bureau,  and  the  work  that  has  engaged  the  atten- 
tion of  field  experts,  who  are  acting  as  assistants 
has  been  progressing  steadily  for  some  months! 
Completeness  of  details  and  accuracy  of  informa- 
tion   have    been    sought,    that    the    facts    may    be 


CABLE  PUMPING  SYSTEM  FOR  UNWATERING  MINE. 

Several  years  ago  the  Searchlight  Mining  and  Milling  Company,  with  property  at  Searchlight,  Nevada, 
was  compelled  to  suspend  operations  owing  to  increased  volume  of  water  just  below  the  300-foot  level. 
Bodies  of  rich  ore,  located  in  sinking,  had  then  to  be  abandoned -until  the  water  problem  could  be  mas- 
tered. Herman  C.  Lichtenberger  and  Henry  E.  Carter,  together  with  Louis  Lichtenberger,  Geo,  Lichten- 
berger,  Percy  Schumacher  and  others,  organized  the  Crown  Point  Mining  Company  for  the  purpose  of  de- 
velopment of  the  property. 

Unwatering  the  mine  in  an  economical  way,  and  at  a  minimum  cost,  was  the  first  problem  for  solu- 
tion. This  matter  was  taken  to  Herbert  E.  Carse,  consulting  engineer  of  Los  Angeles,  who  devised  the 
cable  system,  the  first  cost  of  which  was  but  little  over  one-half  any  method  previously  proposed  and 
which  has  come  up  to  every  calculation  as  to  cost  of  operation.  In  the  plant,  two  horizontal  boilers 
were  already  installed  to  operate  the  sinking  pumps  and  iioist.  Superheaters  were  especially  designed  for 
use  in  connection  with  these  boilers,  causing  the  delivery  of  comparatively  dry  steam  to  the  sinking 
pumps  and  aaaing  to  the  economy  of  the  general  steam  consumption.  A  130-H.P.  tandem  compound  au- 
tomatic engine  was  installed  near  the  boilers.  The  engine  is  built  with  extended  crank  shaft  and  coup- 
ling on  the  left-hand  side.  A  5-inch  shaft,  thirteen  feet  in  length,  is  connected  to  the  extension  and  is  car- 
ried on  pillow,  blocks  set  on  concrete  piers.  On  the  outer  section  of  the  shaft,  a  friction  clutch  is  placed, 
upon  the  barrel  of  which  is  mounted  one  2-groove  driving  sheave  and  one  1-groove  sheave.  The  first  is 
fixed  to  the  clutch;  the  second  is  an  idler  to  carry  the  single  cable  leading  from  the  tension  carriages. 

Two  wraps  of  an  endless  Jupiter  transmission  cable  is  used,  running  over  two  groove  cast  iron  sheaves. 
The  cable  is  covered  with  marline  and  the  sheaves  have  no  filler  in  the  bottom  of  the  grooves  such  as 
those  used  with  plain  wire  cable.  The  cables  run  horizontally  through  the  gallows  frame  and  thence  down 
the  manway  of  the  shaft.  All  the  sheaves  are  fixed  to  their  respective  shafts,  which  run  in  ring  oiling 
bearings.  The  entire  transmission  lies  in  a  vertical  plane,  and  the  cables  run  without  noise  or  vibration, 
The  water  from  the  shaft  marked  t(S"  in  the  drawing  is  delivered  by  the  sinking  pumps  into  a  sump 
near  the  triplex  pump.  This  is  a  10x10  single  acting  outside  packed  double  geared  pump,  capacity  500 
gallons  per  minute,  with  the  pinion  shaft  extended  about  four  feet  through  a  heavy  "A"  frame  outboard 
bearing.     The  sheave  for  the  cable  is  mounted  on  the  extended  pinion   shaft.

in  California  have  devised  many  new  and  useful 
methods  of  work,  which  have  not  been  described 
hitherto  in  any  publication.  The  maps  that  have 
been  completed  include  those  for  the  Whittier- 
Olinda  Meld,  the  Santa  Maria  field  and  one  includ- 
ing all  the  fields  in  Santa  Barbara  County.  The 
Kern  River  field  will  be  represented  by  a  map  that 
will  lie  issued  about  January  21st.  The  map  of  Ven- 
tura and  New  hall  field  will  he  ready  about  dan 
uary  31st.  In  a  series  of  oil  bulletins  to  he  is^nrd 
regarding  the  California  fields,  one  concerning  the 
Whittier  Olinda  field  and  the  fields  of  Los  Angeles 
County  as  a  whole,  will  he  the  first  to  be  given  out. 
This  will  include  complete  and  up-to-date  maps 
and  detailed  description  of  the  work  that  has  been 
performed.  With  this.  also,  will  go  out  analyses  of 
the  oil  produced  and  figures  regarding  the  amount 
of  oil  of  each  variety  that  has  been  produced.  In 
the  oil  publications  there  will  be  chapters  about 
geological  conditions  and  topography  of  the  various 
fields.  On  the  maps  the  producing  wells  in  exist 
euce,  the  existing  non-producers  and  the  drilling 
wells  will  be  delineated.  Nothing  has  been  over- 
looked that  may  be  required  to  give  a  full  under 
standing  of  the  subject  matter  in  either  maps  or 
bulletins  to   be   issued. 


Recent  Mining  Decisions. 

Contiguous  Claims — Mining  claims  which  touch 
each  other  only  at  a  common  corner  are  not  con- 
tiguous within  the  rule  authorizing  the  performance 
of  assessment  work  for  several  contiguous  claims 
on  any  one  of  them.— Anvil  Hydraulic  &  Drainage 
Co.  v.  Code.  U.  S.  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals.  182 
Federal  205. 

Assessment  Work — Where  several  claims  are  held 
in  common,  the  annual  assessment  work  for  all  may 
be  done  on  one  of  the  claims  or  on  adjacent  patented 
land  or  even  on  public  land,  provided  the  claims 
are  contiguous  and  the  work  is  for  the  benefit  of 
all  of  them,  and  tends  to  develop  them  all,  and  fa- 
cilitate the  extraction  of  ore  therefrom.— Anvil  Hy- 
draulic Drainage  Co.  v.  Code.  U.  S.  Circuit  Court 
of  Appeals.      182   Federal   205. 

Assessment  Work — On  an  issue  as  to  the  perform- 
ance of  assessment  work  on  certain  mining  claims, 
defendant  proved  that  a  drain  that  it  had  con- 
structed  in  1905  on  two  of  its  claims  nearly  two 
miles  distant  from  that  in  controversy  was  for  the 
benefit  of  that  claim,  and  that  it  was  intended  to 
extend  the  drain  thereto.  The  court  charged  that, 
before  any  work  performed  outside  a  claim  can  be 
considered  as  assessment  work  done  on  the  claim, 
it  must  lie  shown  that  such  work  was  of  value  to 
the  claim  on  which  it  is  sought  to  apply  the  work 
as  annual  labor,  generally  enhancing  the  money 
value  of  the  claim  or  in  the  way  of  prospecting, 
developing,  or  operating  it.  Held,  that  such  in- 
struction was  not  objectionable,  in  that  the  court 
thereby  eliminated  the  question  whether  or  not  the 
drain,  when  completed,  would  be  of  benefit  to  the 
claim  in  controversy. — Anvil  Hydraulic  &  Drainage 
Co.  v.  i 'ode.  I*.  S.  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals.  182 
Federal    205.

ROM  EVERY  POINT  OF  VIEW, 
the  season  of  1011  promises  to  be 
the  banner  baseball  year  in  Cali- 
fornia, and  particularly  are  the  pros- 
pects of  the  Pacific  Coast  League 
exceedingly  bright.  Improvements 
of  some  kind  will  be  made  at  all  of 
the  six  parks,  such  as  additional 
seating  capacity,  more  comfortable 
seats,  better  service  fur  patrons  in 
every  respect;  also  grass  infields 
have  taken  the  place  of  the  old  skin 
diamonds,  being  far  better  for  the  players,  and  much 
easier  on  the  eyes  of  those  looking  on.  The  great- 
est, as  well  as  the  most  needed  change  will  be 
found  at  Los  Angeles.  The  following  article,  re- 
cently published  in  the  Los  Augeles  Daily  Times, 
gives  an  idea  of  the  magnitude  of  the  proposed  im- 
provements: 

"When  local  fandom  reports  at  Chutes  Park  for 
the  spring  exhibition  between  local  Coast  League 
teams  and  the  Boston  Red  Sox  it  will  be  to  partici- 
pate in  the  occupancy  of  one  of  the  finest  baseball 
parks  in  the  West,  and  in  some  respects  the  best 
in  the  country.  Improvements,  of  the  nature  and 
magnitude  of  which  a  majority  of  the  fans  have 
only  a  vague  idea,  are  now  in  progress  at  the  park, 
which  will  convert  the  place  into  a  veritable  fan- 
dom's  elysiiiiu,  and  which  will  tend  to  elevate  base- 
ball until  it  will  appeal  to  many  persons  who  have 
never  included  it  in  their  list  of  amusements.  When 
these  are  completed,  and  they  are  being  pushed  to 
completion  as  rapidly  as  the  work  can  be  done  by 
a  large  force  of  men  under  the  direction  of  Secre- 
tary C.  F.  Parker,  the  park  will  compare  favorably 
in  its  arrangement  and  equipment  with  the  modern 
playhouses,  with  the  luxury  of  .  all  out-of-doors 
thrown  in,  while  the  broad  sweep  of  the  grass  in- 
field and  outfield  stretching  away  in  front  of  the 
distant  fences  and  dotted  here  and  there  with  the 
brightly  uniformed  players  will  spread  before  the 
fans  a  scene  which  no  stage  could  hope  to  dupli- 
cate. 

Old  Park  Wiped  Out. 

' '  The  improvements  in  progress  are  so  great  that 
they  will  not  leave  a  trace  of  the  park  as  it  stood 
last  year,  even  the  shape  of  the  field  being  changed 
to  an  outline  of  perfect  and  pleasing  symmetry. 
'Spare  no  expense  to  give  Los  Angeles  the  best 
ball  park  in  the  West,'  was  Henry  lierry's  instruc- 
tions to  his  assistants,  and  they  are  carrying  these 
out  to  the  letter.  Briefly,  the  improvements  consist 
of  an  entirely  new  grandstand'and  bleachers,  both 
of  increased  capacity,  additional  boxes  in  front  and 
separate  from  the  grandstand,  25U0  Cumiskey  chairs 
for  the  grandstand,  remodeled  clubhouses  for  two 
teams,  a  grass  outfield  and  infield  and  a  readjust- 
ment of  the  outfield  fences  so  as  to  enlarge  the  park 
and  make  it  of  perfectly  balanced  proportions. 
These  improvements  carry  with  them  dozens  of  mi- 
nor improvements  in  the  way  of  new  plumbing,  rest 
rooms,  office  suites  and  other  things  which  combine 
to  make  the  modern  baseball  park.  The  grand- 
stand, which  will  have  nearly  double  the  capacity 
of  the  present  one  now  being  demolished,  will  be 
entered  from  the  front,  the  patrons  passing  from 
the  imposing  entrance  to  the  park  under  the  grand- 
stand to  the  runway  in  front,  from  which  the  sev- 
eral entrances  to  the  grandstand  can  be  reached. 
This  runway  will  reach  along  the  entire  front  of 
the  grandstand,  and  will  separate  the  front  row  of 
boxes  from  that  structure.  While  the  front  of  the 
grandstand  will  be  fifteen  feet  farther  back  than 
the  present  one,  it  will  be  just  as  close  to  the  dia- 
mond, as  the  home  plate  has  also  been  moved  in  an 
equal  distance.  The  grandstand  and  its  adjuncts  will 
be  provided  with  nearly  every  convenience,  colored 
maids  being  in  waiting  for  the  accommodation  of 
the  women  patrons.  Under  the  grandstand  and  near 
the  entrance  will  be  the  park  offices.  These  will  be 
open  all  day,  with  a  man  in  charge  who  will  receive 
orders  for  reserved  seats  by  telephone.  This  is  a 
distinctly  new  feature  in  this  city  and  promises  to 
make  a  big  hit  with  the  fans. 

Will  Seat  8000. 
"The  new  bleachers  will  be  a  great  improvement 
over  the  present  ones,  and  will  increase  the  seatino- 
capacity  of  the  park  to  about  8000.  On  one  side 
they  will  stretch  away  to  the  left  field  fence  and  on 
the  other  to  the  right  field  fence.  When  these  and 
the  grandstand  are  filled  there  will  be  a  solid  bank 
of  humanity  more  than  half  way  around  the  field 
With  the  outfield  fence  raised  to  double  its  present

height,  or  twenty  feet,  the  playing  space  will  be  a 
veritable  arena.  The  right-field  fence  has  been 
moved  back  sixty  feet,  giving  the  park  the  most 
symmetrical  outline  of  .any  park  in  the  country. 
Nearly  all  ball  parks  have  a  short  left  or  right  field, 
or  some  other  ungainly  angle,  but  the  local  park  will 
be  perfectly  balanced  in  this  respect.  The  length- 
ening of  the  playing  space  by  setting  the  home  plate 
fifteen  feet  nearer  the  grandstand,  moving  back  the 
right-field  fence  and  doubling  the  height  of  the  out- 
field fence,  will  result  in  precious  few  balls  being 
poled  out  of  the  lot.  It  will  take  a  Herculean  wal- 
lop, indeed,  to  lose  the  ball  over  the  fence,  and  Mr. 
'Ping'  Bodie  may  consider  himself  lucky  in  being 
drafted  by  Chicago.  The  perfect  slope  of  the  Ber- 
muda grass  outfield  away  from  the  bluegrass  dia- 
mond would  be  a  credit  to  any  gardener.  The  work 
of  sowing  the  outfield  to  Bermuda  and  rye  grass 
has  been  completed,  and  the  blue  grass  sod  will  be 
transferred  from  a  lot  where  it  has  been  grown 
for  the  purpose. ' ' 


AMATEUR     S 


Make-up  of  1911  Teams. 

Make-up  of  Coast  League  teams  for  1911,  with 
possibly  a  few  changes,  will  be  as  follows: 

Portland — Infielders,  Rapps,  Peckinpaugh,  Shee- 
han  and  Ball;  outfielders,  Speas,  Krueger  and  Ryan; 
utility,  Ort  and  Chadbourne;  catchers,  Rodgers, 
Gough  and  Murray;  pitchers,  Seaton,  Garrett, 
Boise,  Smith  and  three  new  men  drafted  by  Cleve- 
land. McCredie  says  that,  even  though  he  won  the 
pennant  last  year,  he  was  not  entirely  satisfied  with 
the  work  of  his  club  as  a  whole,  and  this  season 
there  will  not  be  a  stick  of  dead  timber  on  the 
team,  for  if  he  finds  anyone  slowing  up,  or  not  up 
to  standard,  he  will  lose  no  time  in  making  a 
change. 

The  Oakland  club  will  start  the  season  with  near- 
ly all  of  the  members  of  the  1910  club  on  hand,  ex- 
cepting pitchers  Moser  and  Lively  and  catcher 
Thomas.  Several  youngsters  obtained  by  draft  and 
purchase  have  been  added.  Manager  Waterton 
knows  that  he  will  miss  his  star  slabsters,  Moser 
and  Lively,  but  expects  better  work  from  his  other 
holdovers  than  last  year,  as  well  as  expecting  to 
develop  one  or  two  stars  from  his  new  recruits. 

Long,  who  looks  after  the  baseball  destinies  of 
San  Francisco,  says  that  there  will  be  nothing  to 
the  Coast  League  race  but  the  Seals.  When  the 
bugle  sounds  for  the  spring  stunts,  the  line-up  will 
be  something  like  this:  Tenuant  first  base,  Mohler 
at  second,  Nitt  third,  McArdle  shortstop,  with 
Weaver  and  McAuley  doing  the  utility  role;  outer 
gardeners,  Lewis,  Shaw,  Melchoir  and  Powell.  The 
pitching  staff  will  be  made  up  of  Browning,  Sutor, 
Miller,  Henley,  Fielder  and  Meikle,  all  of  whom 
finished  the  season  of  1910  with  the  Seals.  Iu  the 
receiving  department  will  be  Berry,  Schmidt  and 
Ryan. 

Vernon  will  start  the  season  about  twenty  per 
cent  stronger  than  last  year.  About  twenty-five 
men  will  report  to  Manager  Hogan  the  latter  part 
of  February,  and  after  the  eliminating  process,  the 
make-up  will  probably  look  like  this:  Jones  or 
Fisher  first  base,  Brashear  or  Reams,  second;  Bur- 
rill,  third  base;  McDonald,  shortfield,  with  Davis 
as  utility  infielder;  Ross,  Carlisle,  Stinson,  Coy  and 
Tico,  outfielders;  catchers.  Brown,  Hogan  and' some 
promising  youngster;  pitchers,  Hitt.  Brackenridge, 
Willitt,  Raleigh,  Carson,  Schafer,  '  Stewart,  Cum- 
mings  and  Kilburn. 

The  Los  Angeles  management  have  not  completed 
negotiations  for  two  men  in  view,  but  the  club  will 
look  something  like  this  in  the  1911  race:  Dillon 
first,  Howard  second,  Metzgar  third,  Akin  or  Del- 
mas  at  short,  Daly,  Kennedy,  Bernard,  Tech  and 
a  player  from  the  Pittsburgh  club  in  the  outfield. 
Thorseu,  Tozer,  Delhi,  Criger,  Castelman  and  Klein 
will  do  most  of  the  pitching,  with  Smith,  Grindle 
and  Abbott  to  do  the  receiving. 

Sacramento  will  have  to  wait  on  Boston  before 
any  definite  announcement  can  be  made,  although 
they  will  have  most  of  last  year's  team,  with  some 
valuable  additions. 


Governor,  in  which  they  suggested  these  changes 
in  the  nsh  and  game  laws:  Opening  the  tree  squir- 
rel season  August  1st  instead  of  September  1st,  and 
eliminating  the  bag  limit;  making  the  dove  season 
August  1st  to  November  1st — fifteen  days  later 
than  the  present  season;  reducing  the  deer  season 
one  month,  to  run  irom  August  1st  to  October  loth; 
making  close  season  for  wild  pigeons  from  January 
1st  to  August  1st,  and  fixing  the  bag  limit  at  twen- 
ty; permitting  pheasants  raised  in  captivity  to  be 
sold  in  the  markets  under  proper  restrictions.  A 
close  season  of  two  years  would  be  established  on 
crabs  and  a  limit  of  five  pounds  of  dried  shrimps 
would  be  fixed.  The  exportation  of  any  striped 
bass 'outside  the  State  would  be  prohibited.  Trout 
raised  in  captivity  and  measuring  not  less  than 
seven  inches  in  length  would  be  sold  in  the  markets 
between  April  1st  anu  February  1st  of  year  follow- 
ing under  restrictions. 

Successful  Aviating  in  San  Francisco. 
The  aviatiou  meet,  barring  an  interruption  by  a 
most  beneficial  rainfall,  has  proven  very  successful. 
San  Francisco  county  has  been  completely  circum- 
navigated, but  as  it  measures  only  6x7  miles,  that 
seems  a  trifling  exploit,  but  on  that  trip,  the  aero- 
plane sailed  through,  or  rather  over,  the  Golden 
Gate  for  the  first  time  in  history.  The  aviators  said 
the  greatest  crowd  they  ever  exhibited  before  gath- 
ered at  the  field  on  January  7th.  The  successful  ex- 
ploding of  bombs  from  the  air  and  photographing 
of  the  country  from  an  elevation  of  1200  feet  by 
military  officers,  as  well  as  Ely's  landing  upon,  and 
sailing  from,  the  cruiser  Pennsylvania,  are  all  his- 
tory-making events,  and  are  very  likely  to  revolu- 
tionize warfare. 


Changes  Recommended  in  Game  Laws. 
California's  new  Fish  and  Game  Commission,  as 
appointed  by  Governor  Johnson,  is  made  up  of  Da- 
vid Starr  Jordan  of  Stanford  University,  M.  J.  Con- 
nell  of  Los  Angeles  and  Fred  G.  Sanborn  of  San 
Francisco.  Prior  to  surrendering  their  offices,  the 
old  commission  submitted  their  annual  report  to  the

dent of  Marysville,  Yuba  County,  in  early  days,  died 
in  San  Francisco,  December  7th,  survived  by  three

S8  years.  Deceased  had  much  to  do  with  history 
making  in  this  State,  and  was  one  of  the  incorpora- 
tors of  the  Landmarks  League  also  a  member  of 
the  Society  of  California  Pioneers. 

Mrs.  Elizabeth  Burris,  who  had  resided  in  Sonoma 
for  sixty  years,  died  there  recently,  aged  87  years. 
She  was  a  native  of  Indiana,  and  with  her  husband,

early  fifties  while  hunting  Indians.

charity  worker,  died  in  San  Francisco,  December

years,  and  arrived  in  California  in  1851,  settling  in 
San  Francisco.  In  that  city  the  greater  part  of  her 
philanthropic  work  had  been  carried  on.  Three 
cli  i  1  dren   survive. 

Orlando  H.  Bogart,  another  of  the  California  Pio- 
neers, died  in  San  Francisqo,  December  29th.  In

circles,  but  in  later  years  mining  and  racing  held 
his  attention.     A  widow  and  two  children  survive. 

Mrs.  James  Faris,  who  had  resided  in  Sacramento

ing farmed  on  a  ranch  near  Hay  ward,  Alameda 
County,  for  two  years.  He  was  a  member  of  th« 
grocery  firm  of  Booth  &  Co.,  of  Sacramento,  from

firm  of  Well  man,  Peck  &  Co.  of  San  Francisco,  re- 
maining with  them  until  his  retirement  in  18S9.

She  was  a  native  of  Germany,  aged  82  years,  and 
is  survived  by  three  sons.  Few  women  were  bet- 
ter known  or  better  loved  than  Mrs.  Nauert.  She 
was  one  of  the  earliest  settlers  in  Petaluma  and 
watched  that  city  grow  from  a  village  to  its 
present  importance.  She  was  charitable  and  kind- 
hearted  and  in  the  earlier  days  of  that  section  did 
a  world  of  good  and  was  looked  upon  as  one  of 
the  leading  women  of  the  community.

vived by  a  husband  and  six  children.  Deceased

United  States. 

TRIBUTE    TO    PIONEERS. 

Dardanelle  Parlor,  No.  66,  N.D.G.W.,  of  Sonora, 
paid  tribute  to  two  Pioneers  recently  by  attending 
their  funerals  in  a  body,  namely,  Ward  C.  Pike 
and  Vincent  Wooters,  both  old  forty-niners.  Pio- 
neer Pike  was  buried  in  the  old  Shaw's  Flat  bury 
ing  ground,  near  which  he  had  resided  for  years. 
He  was  a  very  eccentric  old  man,  living  alone  and 
associating  with  none.  He  was  reputed  wealthy, 
but  the  coroner  was  unable  to  find  enough  prop- 
erty in  the  deceased's- name  to  pay  funeral  ex- 
penses and  his  remains  were  consequently  buried 
by  the  county.  It  is  thought  that  a  large  fortune 
is  buried  in  the  mountains  near  the  old  home. 
Pioneer  Wooters  was  an  old  and  highly  respected 
resident  of  Sonora,  whose  people  can  justly  be 
proud  of  his  memory.  ±±e  helped  cut  the  brush 
opening  the  trail  over  whicn  the  Pioneers  entered 
the  goldfields  about  this  section  of  the  country. 
He  was  a  friend  of  everyone,  and  everyone  was  his 
friend.  Although  83  years  of  age,  he  ably  at- 
tended to  his  daily  duties  to  within  three  weeks 
of  his  death.  Thus  endeth  the  last  chapter  in  the 
history  of  two  more  Pioneers. — (Communicated.)

Santa  Clara  County,  were  written  by  Mrs.  W.  H. 
Caimichael  of  Vendome  Parlor,  No.  100,  N.D.G.W., 
San  Jose,  and  on  the  recent  occasion  of  a  reception 
to  the  Pioneers  in  that  city,  the  three  little  sons  of 
the  authoress  recited  the  lines: 
We  can  hear  again  that  story, 

Told  more  than  sixty  years  ago, 
Of  James  Marshall's  find  so  lucky, 

That  did  indeed  to  wonders  grow. 
It  was  well  that  gold  was  found  then, 

For  it  proved  a  beacon  light, 
Guiding  souls  to  this  "Land  of  Promise," 

Whose  future   Pioneers  made  so   bright. 
For  us  they  bore  those  trials,  sore, 

Full  many  a  weary  day. 
Their  burdens  in  sunshine,  and  storm, 

They  carried  on  their  way. 
And  if,  perchance,  they'd  heavier  grow, 

And  make  them  fall  behind, 
Right  quickly  again  they'd  shoulder  thorn, 

With  thoughts  of  the  goal  in  mind. 
And  history,  through  all  the  ages — 

From  ancient  times,  on  down — 
Records  not  any  deeds  more  noble, 

More   worthy  of  renown, 
Than  were  fought  in  the  bloodless  battles, 

By  our  own  loved  Pioneers, 
Who  braved  hardship,  toil,  e'en  starvation, 

To  leave  us,  through  the  years, 
Our  proud  heritage — boast  of  nations — 

California,  peer  among  peers. 
Then  three  cheers  for  the  men  of   '49, 

The  brave,  the  true,  the  bold; 
We'll    show    them    our    heart    strings    around    them 
twine; 

We'll  honor  them  as  of  old.

In    Memoriam 


DR.  ELIZABETH  GALLIMORE. 
On  December  16th,  San  Jos,-  Parlor,  No.  81,  N.D. 
G.W.,  suffered  the  loss  of  an  honored  charter  mem- 
ber, Dr,  Elizabeth  Gallimore,  who  was  born  in  Santa 
Clara  Valley  and  whose  life  had  been  spent  in  the 
community  where  she  was  well  and  favorably 
known.  Unassuming  in  her  manner,  she  was  loved 
by  all  with  win  mi  she  came  in  contact  and  in  her 
was  found  the  exempli  Seal  ion  of  true  <  lalifornia 
womanhood.  Al  a  regular  meeting  of  San  .lose 
Parlor,  December  28th,  the  following  resolutions 
were  adopted,  upon  recommendation  of  a  committee 
composed  of  Clai  re  Borchers,  Km  ma  Haehnlen  and 
Josie   Barboni : 

Whereas,  In  His  great  wis. loin,  the  Divine  Killer 
has  seen  lit  to  remove  from  our  midst  our  beloved 
sister,  Dr.  Elizabeth  Gallimore,  in  memory  of  the 
high  esteem  in  which  she  was  held  by  our  Order,  we 
mi  Ion  it  the  following  as  voicing  the  sentiment  of 
San  Jose  Parlor,  No.  81,  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden   West : 

Resolved,  That  we  idler  this  testimonial  of  respect 
to  the  departed  sister  who,  in  life,  was  held  dear 
by  her  hosts  •  <{'  friends  because  of  her  many  ster- 
ling   qualities;    and    be    it    further 

Resolved,  That  we  extend  our  deepest  sympathy 
to  the  family  and  relatives  of  the  deceased;  that  a 
copy  of  these  resolutions  be  sent  them,  a  copy  sent

Plea  for  St.  Ann's

County.  St.  Ann's  rhureh,  mire  t  he 
pride  of  the  old  miners;  once  one  of 
the  finest  churches  in  the  Slale,  has 
been  doomed  to  destruction  for  the 
sake  of  the  problematical  gold  in 
the   ground    beneath     it.      This    old 

Church  was  erected  in  1853,  on  a  plot 
of  ground  just  outside  of  Columbia 
id,  as  was  then  the  custom,  the  cemetery  was  laid 
it  about  the  edifice.  Inch  by  inch  the  placer 
iners  hunted  over  the  adjacent  grounds  for  gold; 
eh  by  inch  they  crept  closer  to  the  consecrated 
ound,  stopping  only   when   the  toppling  fence   re 


St.    Ann'.s    Church. 

minded  them  that  they  were  encroaching  upon  the 
rights  of  those  who  were  sleeping  the  sleep  of 
eternal    peace. 

Often,  yea  very  often,  have  the  eyes  of  the  gold- 
hunters  turned  toward  this  sacred  spot,  longing  to 
explore  for  hidden  fortunes,  but  they  always  reso- 
lutely turned  their  eyes  away,  until  the  present 
time. 

Like  an  old  and  feeble  mother,  .St.  Ann  now 
stands  on  its  tottering  foundation,  looking  out  over 
its  deserted  graveyard,  and  appealing,  in  the  name 
of  our  Pioneer  Fathers  and  Mothers,  to  the  Native 
Sons    and      Native      Daughters    for    aid.      True,    its

sentiment  that  doubly  endears  every  old  edifice  to 
the  children  of  the  Pioneers  should  appeal  to  all 
Californians  and  stir  them  to  a  campaign  of  rescue. 
Life,  death  and  all  of  earth 's  sorrows  and  joys 
are  instilled  in  the  memories  that  cling  to  its  walls 
ami  re-echo  from  its  rafters.  There  were  our

MOOM 


Feminine 


World's    Fads    and    Fancies 


AW  AGES  AGO,  ON  THE  15TH 
of  February,  the  day  sacred  to 
Juno  Pebruata,  pagan  boys 
and  girls  used  to  draw  each 
others'  names  in  the  public 
square.  This  was  prior  to  the 
advent  of  good  "St.  Valen- 
tine," and  even  cupid,  "the 
little  winged  god  of  love,"  was 
as  yet  iu  embryo.  YVhaf  our 
good  saint,  ever  did  to  change 
the  festival  held  in  his  honor 
on  the  14th  to  one  of  choosing  valentines  or 
sweethearts,  has  never  been  determined.  Cer- 
tain it  is,  that  that  is  the  day  dedicated  to 
bolt-  swains  and  blushing  maids,  and  doubt- 
less will  be  as  long  as  this  old  world  wags 
round.  In  this  day  of  joy-rides  to  valentine 
parties  and  frolics— though  in  the  near  future 
we  will  aviate  to  the  different  points  of  in- 
terest, scorning  the  lowly  auto — we  must  be 
properly  gowned  for  any  swell  affair  that  the 
followers  "of  the  immortal  fourteenth  decrees, 
so  just  a  gwinpse  at  a  few  of  the  newest  cre- 
ations from  across  the  sea  iu 
Evening  Gowns. 
One  of  line  white  chiffon  over  crepe  meteor 
was  a  dream,  though  a  very  realistic  one.  The 
underdress  of  crepe  meteor  cut  demi -train, 
had'  a  nine-inch  baud  of  gold  lace  at  the  bot- 
tom, just  below  the  Oriental  band  on  the 
chiffon  overdress.  And  this  Oriental  band, 
so  different  from  wiiat  has  been  shown  here- 
tofore, as  the  desi— *  in  squares,  oblongs  and 
others  peculiar  to  the  Orient,  and  in  many 
colors,  was  blended  so  harmoniously  that  one 
would  not  lightly  put  it  aside.  The  kimono 
style  of  waist  and  sleeve,  cut  decollete,  was 
almost  covered  with  the  same  Oriental  work, 
while  tiny  cloth-of-gold  bauds  edged  the  low 
neck  and  short  sleeves,  and  a  girdle  of  the 
same  formed  the  high  waist  line.  This  gown 
could  be  worn  with  or  without  a  guimpe:  An- 
other model  of  fine  white  hand- embroidered 
net  over  messaline  had  the  iridescent  beading 
shimmering  all  over  i.t,  as  though  they  had 
been  showered  on  it,  regardless  of  aught  but 
the  embroidery,  whieh  was  a  very  solid  and 
beautiful  design  on  the  front  panel,  making 
a  distinct  feature  of  the  gown. 

Decollete,  with  the  short  kimono  sleeves 
and  neck  edged  with  gold  braid,  and  a  cloth- 
of-gold  girdle  and  tiny  revers  of  the  same 
at  the  bust,  a  broad  band  of  the  cloth-of-gold 
across  the  front  of  the  underdress  showing 
just  the  glint  of  gold  through  the  net,  made 
it  "just  too  dear!  "  as  one  enthusiastic  ad- 
mirer remarked  to  me.  A  unique  feature  of 
this  perfect  gown  was  an  immense  bow  of 
pink  satin  ribbon  with  long  ends,  placed 
rather  high  on  the  back,  thus  allowing  the 
ends  a  full  sweep  over  the  long  train.  A  large 
pink  bow  under  tne  net  at  the  bust  created 
a  shimmery  and  battling  effect  which,  com- 
bined with  the  cloth-of-gold  trimming,  the  iridescent 
beading  and  elegant  hand  embroidery,  the  wearer 
of  such  a  gown  eould  well  quote  after  Bobby  Burns: 
"0,  would  the  gift  the  gif tie  gie  us, 
To  see  ourselves  us  ithers  see  us." 
And  yet  another,  more  suitable  for  the  brunette 
type,  was  of  white  marquesette  with  an  Indian-red 
Oriental   band  about   twelve   inches  wide  above  the

four-inch  hem.  This  gowu  was  cut  in  the  round 
length,  and  a  chic  feature  was  the  black  intermixed 
with  the  red,  and  narrow  black  satin  bands  edging 
the  low  neck  and  the  deep  turn-back  cuffs  on  the 
three  quarter  sleeves. 

All  such  gowns  may  be  worn  with  or  without  the 
guimpe.  For  a  dancing  frock,  it  would  be  irresist- 
ible.    A  silk  braided  girdle  encircled  the  high  waist, 


and  the  long  ends  and  tassels  coming  clear  to  the 
hem,  gave  it  an  additional  Oriental  air,  so  that  one 
with  an  imaginative  mind  could  just  see  some  beau- 
tiful East  Indian  princess  so  gowned  and  holding 
high  court. 

Another  gown,  not  strictly  Oriental  but  with  a 
decidedly  "Far  Eastern"  appearance,  was  a  black 
marquesette  with  gun-metal  beading,  over  ocean- 
blue  crepe-meteor.  A  wide  silver  band  across  the 
front  of  the  underdress  gleamed  through,  while  a 
girdle  and  trimming  on  the  waist  of  the  silver  cloth 
gave  it  a  character  entirely  its  own.  This  was  one 
of  the  newest  models  from  "Gay  Paree,"  and  cut 
round  length.  Such  a  gown  on  a  pretty  girl  in  the 
mazes  of  the  waltz  would  attract  the  male  contin- 
gent in  any  clime.  Dame  Fashion  has  been  very 
insistent  in  regard  to  certain 

Ideas  in  Hair  Dressing, 
as  she  declares  for  the  close  style,  with  war  on  the 
"rat."  The  center  part  witli  sides  waived  so  cun- 
ningly over  the  temples,  and  the  low  coiffure  of 
coils  and  puffs  or  braids,  build  out  the  hair  without 
the  aid  of  the  "rat."  But  our  girls  will  have  none 
of  it,  "so  there!"  If  we  can  only  succeed  iu  con- 
vincing them  how  much  more  charming  they  will 
be  with  the  soft  hair  dressing,  instead  of  the 
straight-drawn  effect,  inevitable  over  a  "rat,"  we 
will  have  them  won  over,  for  though  puffs,  switches, 
transformations  and  braids  are  now  worn  over  the 
rat,  they  are  all  much  prettier  and  more  becoming 
without  it,  and  look  more  natural.  Barrettes,  side 
combs,  braid  pins,  and  the  full  band,  either  jeweled 
or  plain,  are  used  a  great  deal  for  evening  wear. 

For  Early  Spring  Jacket  Suits, 
we  have  quite  a  variety  to  choose  from.  The  lat- 
est is  the  very  short  coat,  of  twenty-four,  twenty- 
six  and  twenty-seven  inches.  Cream  or  white  serge 
is  very  good  and  probably  always  will  be  in  this 
sunny  land.  The  newest  of  the  new  in  white  serge 
is  combined  with  black  satin.  A  wide  black  satin 
sailor  collar  and  deep  cuffs,  and  a  live- inch  band 
of  the  black  at  the  bottom  of  the  skirt  were  lea 
tures  in  one  just  received  in  a  fashion  emporium. 
Six  large  black  satin-covered  buttons  were  on  either 
side  of  the  front  panel  of  the  skirt,  and  the  same 
were  also  used  for  closing  on  the  double-breasted 
jacket.  Though  buttons  are  not  used  as  extensively 
for  trimming  as  a  few  seasons  ago,  still  they  make 
a  pretty  adjunct  to  a  costume,  whether  for  the  street 
or  house.  Gray  in  all  of  its  many  shades,  from  the 
dull  tones  to  the  lighter  shades  which  have  just  a 
hint  of  violet  in  the  weave,  are  extremely  fetching 
and   make   up   into   natty  suits  and   gowns. 

The  Latest  Jacket  Suit. 
Our  design  this  month  is  one  of  the  latest  jacket 
suits.  Violet  in  its  different  shades  blends  with 
gray  whether  it  be  just  a  touch  of  velvet  or  silk 
braid,  or  the  hat.  while  big  bunches  of  the  "lowly 
violet"  at  the  belt  or  bust,  give  one  that  witching 
and  dainty  appearance  no  other  two  shades  seem  to 
impart.  Wisteria  is  also  a  nice  combination  for 
gray,  as  in  a  mixed  goods,  where  just  a  hint  of  the 
wisteria  here  and  there  brightens  an  otherwise  pro- 
saic color,  to  some,  while  to  others  it  is  the  embodi- 
ment of  refinement.  A  black  and  white  small  bro- 
ken   check    goods    made    up    beautifully    in    a    short

lead,  for  both  the  turban  and  large  hat.  Folds  of 
Bofl  silk,  tons  of  ribbon,  flowers  and  fancies  are  all 
good.  The  wide  brim  musl  turn  up  sharply  in  front,

Fresno's   Liberal   Contribution. 

Fresno  Parlor,  N.S.G.W.,  is  still  in  line  with  the 
• '  progressives ' ' — yon  all  know  what  they  did  dur- 
ing the  ninth  of  September  celebration  by  way  of 
advertising  their  county,  and  now  fchej  have  senl 
n  check  for  $123  to  aid  in  finding  homes  I'm-  the  un 
fortunate  babies  of  California.  Tins  is  the  second 
largest  donation  to  be  received  by  the  Central  Com- 
mittee. <  »t  course,  nobody  expects  to  beal  General 
Winn  Parlor  of  Antioch  and  Ms  $228.10.  Hon.  C. 
M.  Belshaw  wouldn't  stand  for  that— but  Fresno 
Parlor  lias  an   idea   that   next  year  there   will    be  an 

interesting  « test  for  the  place  held  by  Gen.  Winn 

Parlor  for  two  years.  The  children's  committee  of 
Fresno  Parlor  is  busy  looking  after  the  little  baby 
girl  jdaeed  in  their  city  by  the  Central  Committee, 
and  from  applications  received,  it  looks  as  though 
I  lie  committee  will  sunn  have  more  than  fchej  can 
attend  to  in  this  line. 

And  the  Native  Daughters  of   Fresno!     Well,  you 

i-Diildn  't  find  a  better  looking,  and  mure  eh.-i  nn  i  ng 
lot  of  girls  in  the  State  than  the  members  of  this 
new  Parlor.  The  Native  Sons  very  kindly  Opened 
the  doors  to  the  la-lies  on  the  evening  of  my  visit, 
and  with  l>.  D.  G.  P.  Clara  Jessen  of  Selma  Tailor 
and  all  these  new  and  enthusiastic  Natives,  a  very 
|>lea saut    evening    was    spent. 

Amapola  Knows  How. 
I've  almost  forgotten  to  mention  one  of  the  must 
enjoyable  evenings  spent  tins  winter.  It  was  with 
Amapola  Parlor,  No.  so,  N.D.G.W.,  at  Sutter  Creek. 
The  occasion  was  the  official  visit  of  Grand  Presi- 
dent Mamie  <  i.  Peyton  and  Amapola  was  honored 
by   the   presence  of  three   grand   officers  and   their 

deputy  district  grand  president.  There  were  pres- 
ent, representatives  from  every  Parlor  in  Amador 
County.  Amapola  Parlor  is  famed  for  its  ideal  en 
tertainments,  and  this  occasion  equaled  any  of  which 

I   have   known    or    heard.      The    whole  .evening.    I    felt 

like  one  taking  part  in  a  guessing  contest,  where 
everybody  came   in   for  a    prize.      Of    course,    the 

I  i  1:1  ad     1  'resident     is    always    t  he    ' '  first     lady. '  '    a  rid 

everybody  listens  with  interest  to  hear  her  tell  what 
other  Parlors  are  doing.  We  all  know  the  teach- 
ings of  the  ritual,  hut  it  gives  us  new  inspiration  to 
hear  hew  somebody  else  is  interpreting  those  sen 
tences.  Up  to  this  point,  it  looked  like  the  Grand 
President  came  in  for  all  honors.  Next  came  Grand 
Secretary  Laura  J.  Flakes,  a  mem  her  of  Amapola 
Parlor,  and  if  applause  means  anything,  then  Laura 


J.   Krakes  belongs  to   Amadoi    C u    and   nol   just 

to  Amapola  Parlor.  \'.\  erj  word  she  spoke  ineanl 
books  full  to  those  girls,  for  her  counsel  these  mans 

years    has    always    meant     SUCCOSS    to    the  111  j    and     her 

chccii ni  words  have  helped  them  ovei  manj  rough 
place         It    wai    her   firsi    visil    to   any    Parlor   Bince 

her  serious    illness,   and    her    presence   that,    uighl    was 

like  a   raj   oi    ui  n  il ■.  h  ad   I   I w   t  hal   e\  ei  j   gi  rl 

there  felt  as  I  did  thai  her  symphony  is  something 
like   this: 

1  *  To  live  content    with   small   means,   to  seek   ele 

ga rather    than    In sury,    and    refinement     rather 

than  fashion;  to  be  wealthy,  nol  rich;  to  study  hard, 
think  quietly,  talk  gently."  ad  frankly;  to  listen  to 
stars  and  lords,  babes  and  sages,  with  open  heart ; 
to  boar  all  cheerfully,  do  all  bravely,  and  a  wail 
occasions.  In  a  word,  to  let  the  spiritual,  unbidden 
and  unconscious,  grow    up  through  the  common." 

I  couldn  't  begin  to  tell  you  1  he  lovely 
thai  were  done  thai  night  to  please  her,  and  no 
doub!  she  fell  that  it  was  almosl  better  to  be  a 
Grand  Secretary  than  a  Grand  President.  Then 
came  I).  D.  <•.  I*.  Emma  Boarman  Wright  of  Ursula 
Parlor,  No.  1,  of  Jackson,  she  is  very  well  known 
in  the  county,  having   been  a   districl    deputy   many 

years,   and    her    several    appointments    are    surely    evi 

deuce  of  her  interest  in  Native  Daughter  affairs. 
And  now   I   wonder  if   I'm   presuming  to  say  thai    I 

fell    sure   thai    I    guessed   correctly   al 1    the   style 

of  decoration  thai  night.  There  they  wen-  —  the 
Mission    hells!-   "Tnose    bells    whose   long  forgotten 

music  filled  the  wide  expanse,  tingling  the  w  m  Id 
with  colors  of  romance.''  Well,  I  jusl  fell  that  it 
was  "my  own  party."  .And  so  it  was.  throughout 
the    evening,    something    to     make    each     visitor    feel 

that  she  was  indeed  a  guerfl  of  honor.     Again   1   say, 

Aina  [tola     k  nOWS     llOW  ' 


A    lie   travels    by    aeroplane,    while    truth    trudges 

along    with    lagging    step,    and    yet    it    finally    arrives.

members  of  Petaluma  Parlor,  No.  27,  are  going  act- 
ively to  work  to  restore  the  old  adobe  home  of  Gen- 
eral M.  G.  Vail e jo,  wrhich  the  Parlor  recently  ac 
quired,  as  set  forth  in  these  columns  last  month: 
"Early  Monday  morning  a  party  of  twenty-four 
Native  Sons,  armed  with  the  implements  of  peace — 
the  rake,  the  shovel,  pitchfork,  pick  and  broom — 
hastened  by  various  vehicles  to  the  old  adobe, -and 
engaged  in  a  general  clean-up,  that  in  zeal  and  neat- 
ness would  be  a  worthy  example  even  for  the  va- 
rious ladies'  improvement  clubs  of  California  which 
have  made  history  in  similar  ways.  Trash  was 
raked  into  heaps  and  burned,  corners  were  explored, 
and  the  domain  of  the  bat  and  owd  invaded.  Never 
since  long  before  the  days  of  the  '  splendid  idle 
forties'  nad  the  old  fortress  home  echoed  with  such 
fun.  For  the  workers  were  good  humored  as  well 
as  'work-brittle,'  and  joked  and  sang  as  they  toiled. 
How  easy  is  a  task  shared  by  others;  and  many 
hands  make  the  burden  light.  At  noon  a  primitive 
repast  of  '  mulligan '  and  coffee  was  served,  and 
greatly  relished,  after  which  another  session  of 
industry  filled  the  hours  of  the  afternoon.  After 
the  labor  was  over  athletics  and  games  were  en- 
joyed in  regular  schoolboy  fashion.  Baseball,  broad 
jump,  quoits,  and  leap-frog  were  among  the  sports. 
Contributions  were  taken  during  the  day  from  those 
present  amounting  to  nearly  $(>".  And  those  who 
have  begun  the  good  work  of  preserving  Petaluma  's 
landmark  on  this  memorable  day  were  Dr.  S.  Z. 
Peoples,  A.  W.  Horwege,  V.  and  R.  0.  Mattei,  John 
Courtney,  Leo  Hart,  Ivan  McAllister,  Frank  Thomp- 
son, J.  Vandal,  Mr.  Bruner,  Tony  Mello,  Jos.  Tuttle, 
Grant  Liddle,  Arthur  Voris,  M.  Poehlmann,  Ray 
McNally,  Arthur  Petersen,  Dr.  Jas.  Anderson,  Clif- 
ford Allen,  Will  Farrell,  .and  three  others,  whose 
names  we  were  unable  to  learn.  All  honor  to  those 
who  gave  up  their  Christmas  holiday  in  this  beauti- 
ful December  to  devote  the  time  to  a  patriotic  task 
such  as  this. "

Paisauos   Win   Much   Favor. 

Los  Angeles— The  Germans  of  Ramona  Parlor,  No. 
109,  held  forth  recently  and  thought  they  were  the 
king-pin  entertainers  and  grub  dispensers,  but  when 
a  vote  was  taken  at  tin-  close  of  tin-  "Paisano 
Night"  doings,  January  L3th,  the  Dutch  were  voted 
away  back.  Some  thought  that,  because  Friday,  the 
13th,  had  been  turned  over  to  the  Spanish  boys,  a 
lemon — in  the  nature  of  a  hoodoo  date — had  been 
slipped  them,  but  all  the  Spanish  boys  wanted  was  a 

chance,    and    they    delivered    the    g Is.      Xow,    the 

sons  of  Erin  are  up  in  arms,  and  so  have  insisted 
that  the  Irish  be  given  a  chance  to  show  what  they 
can  do,  and  accordingly,  Friday.  March  17th,  has 
been  officially  set  down  on  the  Ramona  Parlor  cal- 
endar  a--  "Irish  Night."     Don't   forget  it! 

But  the  Paisauos:  The  affair  on  the  13th  was 
directly  in  charge  of  Charles  Prudhomme,  who  has 
gained  fame  as  the  collector  of  one  of  the  finest  col- 
lections of  early-day  California  relics  as  can  be  seen 
anywhere.  And  so  successful  were  his  efforts,  that 
he  has  been  chalked  down  as  the  best  collector-  en- 
tertainer on  the  reservation.  As  amusement  fea- 
tures, a  senorita  delighted  with  songs  and  dances, 
and  Eosendo  Uruehurto,  a  blind  musical  prodigy, 
furnished  pleasing  music.  Iu  fact,  Uruehurto  is  a 
whole  orchestra  in  himself — he  played  solos  on  the 
piano ;  solos  on  a  remarkably  sweet  one-string  in- 
strument  made  by  himself,  and  piano  aud  whistling 
duets  in  which  he  filled  both  parts.  Just  to  get  back 
to  our  own  dear  State,  however,  Wm.  Sweitzer  of 
Grizzly  Bear  Parlor.  Long  Beach,  sang  "California 
for  Mine.''  The  menu  was  not  only  appropriate, 
but  was  greatly  relished  by  the  large  number  pres- 
ent, even  if  they  didn't  know  what  they  were  eat- 
ing. The  score  card  said:  "Lista  de  Potsges.  Caldo 
chilon  Madeiro.  Empauadas  de  Frijolitos,  Tortillas 
de  Maiszuello,  Dulce  Blanco.  Cajete  de  Yquello,  Ta- 
males  Quelques,  Vino  de  Higuerra,  Cafe  Prieto, 
Leche  de  Burro.  Tobacquelo,  Papel  de  Maiszuello." 


Midwinter  Street  Fair. 
Berkeley — From  February  22nd  to  February  26th, 
Berkeley  Parlor,  No.  210,  will  conduct  a  midwinter 
street  fair.  Al  Zeimer  has  been  appointed  chairman 
of  the  general  committee  and  will  name  many  as- 
sistants. A  queen  will  be  chosen  to  reign  during 
the  four-day  outdoor  festival,  and  she  will  choose 
her  maids  of  honor.  Among  the  features  will  be  a 
civic  parade,  and  a  grand  ball  will  terminate  the 
festivities.  The  commercial  bodies  of  Berkeley 
have  sanctioned  the  festival,  and  the  city  council 
has  endorsed  it  and  given  free  use  of  streets  for 
shows,  etc.

of  Granite  Parlor.  Xo.  S3.  X.S.G.W..  and  Fern  Par-

were  installed  January  13th,  by  D.  D.  G.  P.  Price 
of  Selma,  and  the  occasion  was  taken  advantage  of

DRINK  HABIT 

The  Gatlin  Treatment  Cures  Liquor  Drinking  in  THREE  DAYS  Under 
Contract — No  Hypodermic  Injections  or  Other  Disagreeable  Features 

The  Gatlin  Institute  was  established  eleven  years  ago.  ilore  than  eleven  thousand  men  and 
women  have  been  cured  of  liquor  drinking  by  the  Gatlin  treatment — there  has  been  failure  to  cure 
in  no  case. 

No  hypodermic  injections;  no  bad  after  effects,  no  poisonous  drugs.,  no  substitutive  stimulants — 
a    treatment    so    harmless   that    any    child    could    take  it. 

Each  patient  is  accepted  for  treatment  under  legal  contract  to  cure  in  THREE  DAYS — the 
cure  to  be  entirely  satisfactory  in  every  particular  or  the  fee  paid  is  refunded  when  the  patient 
is  leaving  the  institute  and  treatment  costs  nothing. 

The  Gatlin  Home  treatment  is  just  as  effective  as  Institute  treatment  if  plain,  simple  direc- 
tions are  followed. 

Call  or  write  for  books  of  particulars,  copies  of  contracts  to  cure  and  other  information.

about  a  dozen  members  of  that  Parlor,  and  all  pres- 
ent sat  down  to  a  Spanish  supper,  after  dancing  had 
been  indulged  in  for  an  hour  or  more.  The  follow- 
ing night  sixteen  Daughters  and  Sons  went  to  Selma 
by  train,  while  others  went  in  autos,  to  attend  the 
installation  of  the  officers  of  Selma  Parlor  N.S.G.W. 
and  Los  Ami  go  s  Parlor,  N.D.G.W.,  which  was  held

Public  Installation. 

San  Francisco — On  January  12tb,  Army  and  Navy 
Parlor,  No.  207.  held  a  public  installation  at  Frank- 
lin Hall,  the  officers  and  members  appearing  in  uni- 
form. P.  I.  Gonzalez,  assisted  by  D.  -D.  G.  P.,  J.  M. 
Glennan,  was  the  installing  officer.  Notwithstand- 
ing the  inclemency  of  the  weather,  the  ceremonies 
were  witnessed  by  a  large  number  of  the  relatives 
and  friends  of  the  members.  After  the  installation, 
District  Deputy  Gonzalez,  on  behalf  of  the  Parlor, 
presented  to  retiring  past  president  W.  M.  Crowly 
a  gold  diamond-studded  badge,  in  appreciation  of 
his  services  to  the  Parlor,  and  the  recipient  respond- 
ed with  a  few  kind  remarks  in  acknowledgment  of 
the  gift.  At  the  close  of  the  ceremonies,  the  floor 
was  cleared  for  dancing.  Refreshments  were  served, 
and  the  affair  was  voted  a  great  success.  The  Par- 
lor will  give  its  annual  ball  on  January  28th. 


HOME    INDUSTRY   SCHOOL 


GALLAGHER-MARSH  BUSINESS  COLLEGE 

1 2S6   MARKET  ST..   SAN  FRANCISCO,  CAL 

WHY?  Because  it  publishes  in  San  Francisco, 
Gallagher  -  Marsh  Shorthand  System,  the  most 
highly  improved  Pitmanic  Shorthand  System  in 
existence,  and  which  is  indorsed  by  the  Home  In- 
dustry League  of  California  as  follows  : 

"Whereas,  the  Gallagher- Marsh  Shorthand  Sys- 
tem is  a  San  Francisco  production,  the  text  books 
of  which  are  compiled,  printed  and  bound  in  San 
Francisco;  and 

'  'Whereas,  all  the  testimony  of  experts  that  this 
League  has  been  able  to  obtain  proves  beyond  the 
question  of  a  doubt  that  it  is  the  most  modern 
system  in  existence  and  that  it  is  adequate  in 
the  broadest  sense  of  the  term;  and 

Be  it  further  Resolved:  That  it  is  the  unanimous  opinion 
of  the  members  of  this  League,  that  the  Board  of  Education, 
and  all  other  educational  institutions  of  California,  should 
adopt  and  use  the  Gallagher-Marsh  system,  together  with  its 
text  books;  and 

Be  it  further  Resolved:  That  this  League  earnestly  recom- 
mends to  its  members  that  they  give  preference  to  Gallagher- 
Marsh  shorthand  writers  in  selecting  office  help  in  the  encour- 
agement of  home  industry." 

In  selecting  a  business  college  to  attend  for  the  purpose  of 
learning  shorthand,  typing  and  bookkeeping,  the  first  consid- 
eration should  be  proficiency,  and  next,  a  good  position  where 
opportunities  exist  for  advancement.  The  business  people  of 
California  say  in  unmistakable  language  to  the  students  of 
California  that  they  should  study  our  California  Shorthand 
System,  Gallagher-Marsh,  to  encourage  home  industry,  if 
they  expect  positions  in  their  offices.  A  hint  to  the  wise  is 
sufficient.  Attend  Gallagher- Marsh  Business  College  and 
study  the  shorthand  system  recommended  by  the  members  of 
the  Home  Industry  League  of  California  and  then  you  are  sure 
of  a  good  position.     Don't  take  any  chances.

girls  braved  the  torrents  of  descending  rain  and 
repaired'  to  their  meeting  place,  for  the  installa- 
tion ceremonies.  The  evening  proved  very  pleas- 
ant, and  the  following  officers  were  inducted  into 
office  by  D.  D.  G.  P.  Lilla  Bisbee,  who  was  letter 
perfect  in  her  work,  and  who  was  ably  assisted  by 
acting  grand  officers  Kate  Clark.  Millie  Smith,

Egan,  N.  Lemne  and  P.  Sweatland.  proved  very 
amusing  and  entertaining,  and  at  their  conclusion, 
a  hasty  exit  was  made  to  the  banquet-room,  where 
Santa  Clara  (nee  Nettie  Lemne)  greeted  all  and 
directed  them  to  seats  at  a  large  popcorn-covered 
table,  in  the  center  of  which  stood  a  beautiful 
Christinas  tree  artistically  decorated  and  bearing 
presents  of  every  description  for  the  Natives.  Upon 
the  table  was  spread  every  delicacy  of  the  season. 
It  is  needless  to  tell  how  much  the  spread  was  en- 
joyed, or  how  much  chattering  there  was  over  the 
various  presents  each  received — they  forgot  eti- 
quette, and  all  talked  at  will,  just  as  Princess  Par- 
lor girls  always  do.  Nevertheless,  they  are  all 
loyal,  big-hearted  Native  Daughters,  who  believe 
in  enjoying  themselves.  The  evening  ended,  the 
Natives  set  forth  as  they  came,  braving  the  ele-

Annual  Reception  to  Pioneers. 
San  Jose — At  the  recent  annual  reception  of  Ven- 
dome  Parlor,  No.  100,  to  the  members  of  the  Santa 
Clara  County  Society  of  California  Pioneers,  the 
guests  were  given  a  hearty  welcome.  The  hall  was 
tastefully  decorated,  and  the  festivities  closed  with 
elaborate  refreshments.  The  entertainment  fea- 
tures included:  Piano  solo,  Miss  Tillie  Brohaska; 
reading,  "Reminiscences,"  Mrs.  A.  P.  Hill;  vocal 
solo,  Miss  Hazel  Fox;  address,  '-'Our  Pioneer  Moth- 
ers," Miss  Nancy  Watson;  violin  solo,  Miss  Alice 
Miles;  piano  solo.  Miss  Dollie  Cox;  recitation.  "Our 
Pioneers,"  an  original  poem  by  Mrs.  W.  H.  Car-

their  merits  and  use  such  methods  to  prejudice  the 
mind  of  the  local  retailer,  jobber  and  consumer. 
That  we  have  more  restricted  conditions  in  our 
hours  of  labor  and  higher  wages  compared  with 
other  cities  about  us,  is  more  a  civic  condition  than 
one  to  our  detriment  not  to  be  able  to  manufacture. 

We  can  manufacture!  We  have  every  natural 
aavantage  with  tidewater,  rail  and  every  conveni- 
ent transportation  facility,  and  put  the  best  quality 
and  workmanship  into  our  products.  But  with  the 
consistent  condemnation  of  some  of  the  Eastern 
representatives,  who  are  ever  maligning  our  ability 
to  manufacture,  we  have  a  double  task  ahead  of  us 
to  advertise  our  goods  and  must  use  just  that  much 
more  energy  to  put  them  on  the  market,  in  spite  of 
what  the  various  advertising  critics  may  say. 

That  there  is  inefficiency  in  some  of  the  concerns, 
and  lack  of  advertising  California-made  goods,  is 
true  here,  as  it  is  anywhere  else,  but  with  the  con- 
stant accusations  that  we  can't  do  this,  and  we 
can  't  do  that,  and  thus  and  so,  our  manufacturers, 
producers  and  the  various  industries,  particularly 
in  San  Francisco,  have  become  so  discouraged  and 
disheartened'  that  they  are  not  going  ahead  to  get 
the  business  as  they  should;  and  then,  with  the  over- 
whelming catastrophe  and  the  rebuilding  of  their 
plants,  they  have  been  overburdened  with  troubles 
trying  to  reach  a  normal  condition  of  doing 
business.  Surely  that  they  are  efficient  to  do 
the  work  compared  with  the  East,  must  be  true 
when  in  almost  every  case  the  various  industries 
have  re-equipped  with  machinery  of  improved  pat- 
tern. 

No,  it  is  not  true  that  we  cannot  manufacture 
here.  We  are  younger  as  a  manufacturing  State, 
but  being  younger,  we  are  more  modern  in  our 
equipment  to  produce.  The  trouble  is,  the  people 
here  that  should,  are  not  buying  home  products.  To 
get  the  business  from  local  firms,  the  local  manu- 
facturer must  make  a  better  commodity,  sell  it  a 
little  cheaper — even  advertise  it  for  the  firm  that 
buys  it,  besides,  in  a  general  way — and  then  he  only 
gets  the  short  orders  or  "fill-ins."  Perhaps  this 
is  because  the  Eastern  products  are  more  firmly  es- 
tablished through  long  years  of  advertising.  How- 
ever, the  retailer,  like  the  consumer,  has  been  edu- 
cated to  buy  foreign  or  Eastern  goods  and  consist- 
ently overlooks  local  made  quality  for  an  Eastern 
label.     It  is  absurd,  to  say  the  least! 

Therefore,  it  is  urgent  that  the  Home  Industry 
League  popularize  the  Made  in  California  label. 
To  bring  it  before  the  people,  some  of  the  adver- 
tisers have  offered  to  run  it  in  the  street  cars  and 
on  the  bill  boards.  During  the  Made  in  California 
Week  this  "Made  in  California"  will  impress  itself 
so  indelibly  upon  the  minds  of  the  people  by  its 
conspicuous  prominence  in  the  various  windows  of 
the  shops  of  San  Francisco  and  elsewhere  that  the 
people  of  California  will  be  naturally  influenced 
psychologically  to  buy  Made  in  California  products. 
And  continuing  to  advertise  their  Made  in  Cali- 
fornia products,  as  the  manufacturers  will  be  com- 
pelled to  do  after  the  formal  introduction  of  this 
label  Made  in  California  during  "M,ade  in  Califor- 
nia Week,"  the  results  will  bring  prosperity  to 
them  and  to  all  of  us;  not  forgetting  the  reputation 
it  will  give  to  Made  in  California  throughout  the 
civilized  world.

IN   CALIFORNIA. 
In   the   Spring   in    California 
'Tis  a   pleasure  just  to  live; 
Everything  with  life  is  teeming 
And  tlie  flowers  sweet  perfume  give; 
Grasses  make  the  hillsides  verdant. 
All  the  trees  bright  foliage  wear — 
How  delightful,  just  to  live  here. 
In    California,   land   so    fair! 

In    our    State,    when    gulden    Summer 
Comes  with  luscious  fruit  in  store. 
It   is  then   the  birds  sing  loudest 
As  from  nest  to  nest  they  soar. 
Leafy  trees  make  lanes  inviting. 
Nature's  grandeur  blinds  all  care. 
Oh.  how  glad  we  are  to  live  here. 
In   California,  land  so   fair! 

In    our    glorious    ' '  Indian    Summer. 
During  our  rich  "Harvest  Home," 
Nature  casts  o'er  all  her  mantle, 
Bright    with  russet,  gold  and  brown. 
From  the  vineyards,  purple  clustered, 
t  iniie    the    grapes    so    fine    and    ra  re, 
Yes.    'tis    ] >lea sure   just    to   live    here, 
In    California,   land   so    fair! 

In  the   Winter   when   the   storm  clouds 
Float   o'er   land   and   sea. 
Even   then   our   Western   Country. 
Quite   enchanting   seems   to    be; 
Then   it   is  the  orange   ripens. 
And  sweet  violets  scent  the  air. 
Ali!    'tis  Eden  just  to  live  here.

The  passenger  department  of  the  Southern  Pacific 
has  Bent  out  the  gladsome  news  that  colonist  rates 
to  California  will  be  effective  March  10th  to  April 
10th.  inclusive.  The  low  rate  of  twenty-five  dollars 
from  the  Missouri  River,  thirty  two  dollars  from 
St.  Louis,  thirty-three  dollars  from  Chicago,  and 
proportionately  low  rates  from  other  points,  will 
prevail.  Indications  point  to  large  settlers'  travel 
to   Caliiornia   during  this  spring   period. 

If  you  have  friends  or  relatives  in  the  frozen 
East,  inform  them  of  the  special  rates  and  daces, 
and  advise  them  to  come  West,  and  dwell  in  the 
land   of  sunshine,  fruit   and  flowers- — California.

Hangtown's  Terrible  Calamity 

(A   STORY   OF    PIONEER   DAYS.    TOLD   BY   A   PIONEER.) 


X  JANUARY,  1849,  THERE  STOOD 
on  the  headwaters  of  the  Roanoke, 
in  the  state  of  Virginia,  a  Hi  i  Le 
brown  house,  on  the  cornerstone  of 
which  was  written  the  your  1740. 
At  the  parlor  window  of  1 1 1 i a  old 
i  ime  -i  rucl  ure  sat  a  comely  maiden 
impatiently  looking  out  on  the  road, 
as  if  expecting  the  momentary  ar- 
rival of  some  important  person. 
Soon  a  young  horseman  rode  in 
'  Bight,  and  halting  at  tin'  gate, 
quickly  throw  tne  reins  to  a  negro  boy  and  hurriedly 
entered  t  lie  dwelling.  Doffing  his  great  <-"at  and 
gloves  ami  accepting  the  proffered  chair,  he  seated 
himself  in  front  of  the  great  log  fire,  as  a  cold 
wind    was    blowing   down    from    the    Alleghenies. 

"Well,  Harvey,  they  tell  me  you  are  going  to 
California  ? ' ' 

"Yes,    Julia,    that    is    my    intention    at    present." 
'  *  So    you.    too.    like    the    other    half-dozen    young 
men  of  the  county,  have  been  captured  by  tie'  -ons;i 
tional   stories  that  come  from  the  Pacific!" 

■•I  have  read  the  newspaper  accounts  of  the  dis- 
covery of  gold  in  the  mountains  of  California  and 
have   great   confidence   in   their   truth." 

"But,"  continued  the  young  woman,  "suppose 
gold  does  exist  in  those  far-away  mountains  and 
you  have  a  laudable  desire  to  obtain  a  reasonable 
share  of  the  precious  metal,  how  are  you  going  to 
get  to  the  mines?  Since  learning  of  the  intention 
of  so  many  of  the  young  men  of  the  county  to 
seek  their  fortunes  in  that  unknown  land,  I  have 
carefully  examined  the  maps  and  find  but  two 
practicable  routes.  The  first,  by  small  sailing  craft 
around  Cape  Horn,  with  its  thousand  possible 
dangers,  besides  requiring  several  months'  time  in 
making  the  voyage.  The  second,  by  pack  mules  or 
ox  teams,  across  the  continent,  attended,  if  any- 
thing, by  still  more  dangers;  with  no  knowledge 
of  the  distance  between  wood  and  water,  and  no 
bridges  across  the  streams,  to  say  nothing  of  water- 
less deserts  and  mountains  of  snow,  the  trip  seems 
haza  rdous   indeed. ' ' 

"Wherever  there  is  a  will,  there  will  be  found 
a  way."  replied  Harvey  Long.  "The  greatly  re- 
duced fortune  of  my  widowed  mother  impels  me 
to  make  the  effort;  besides,  if  successful,  I  desire 
on  my  return  to  build  a  cage  for  a  little  bird  I 
have    in    view." 

A  slight  tinge  of  crimson  suffused  the  face  of 
Julia  Winters,  when  she  heard  this  remark  and  ob- 
served the  earnest  and  tender  look  of  the  young 
man. 

These  two  young  people  had  grown  up  on  adjoin- 
ing farms  and  had  many  times  walked  or  rode  to- 
gether among  the  wild  flowers  that  grew  under  the 
walnut  trees;  but  no  word  of  love  had  ever  been 
spoken — though  many  a  tell-tale  glance  had  revealed 
the  secret   of   their   hearts. 

Time  passed*  For  three  long  days  and  nights 
the  rain  had  pattered  down  on  the  white  tents  of 
Hangtown,  California.  A  cold  and  cheerless  wind 
was  sweeping  down  the  old  emigrant  trail  past  Slj 
park,  driving  before  it  small  flocks  of  deer  and 
antelope  that  sought  protection  from  the  cold  in 
the  dense  chaparral  of  the  foothills.  The  st  root  s 
of  the  little  mining  camp  were  deserted,  save  for 
a  couple  of  suspicious  Mexicans  with  closely  drawn 
serapas  about  their  shoulders,  who  were  quietly  pok- 
ing a  donkey  before  them  out  of  camp,  after  buy- 
ing a  bottle  of  ''miner's  delight''  and  inquiring  the 
road  to  Logtnwn. 

It  was  a  dull  and  gloomy  day  at  Hangtown.     The 
usually  busy   clerks   at    McGuire's   store   were   whil- 
ing  away   the  time   at   "old  sledge."   only   leaving 
theii    cosy  seats  to  wait   on  an  occasional  customer. 
The  three  private  cabins  on  the  north   side  of  the 
creek,  with  their  closed  doors  and  veiled  windows, 
gave  but  little  evidence  of  the  bustle  and  cheerful 
ness   t  hat     usually   per\  aded     the   homes   of    those 
PioneeT  Mothers  who  reigned  within.     Over  at   the 
"Miner's    Rest"    a    drowsy    cur    dozed    before    the 
fire,  while  the  genial  landlord  watched  complaci 
the  blue   smoke  as  it   curled  upward   from   his 
pipe.     The  village  smithy  was  across  the  way  with 
a    friend,    taking   a    "nip." 


At    the   Badger   saloon,   a    dozen    or    more    a 
gamblers  and  loafers  had  gathered  around  the  bia2 
ing    log    fire,    relating    with    greal     gusto    their    ex- 
periences   in    rrossin<,r    the    plains    or    rounding    1  he 
Horn.     Joe  iSlkes  was  regailing  the  crowd  with  one 
of    his    characteristic    songs,    while    "Poker    Pe 
in  a  quiet  corner,  was  fixing  the  cards  preparatory 
to     swindling    some     unsuspecting    tenderfoot.       The 
writers    in    Weber    Creek    were    tumbling    and    I 
ing  over  the   rocks  on   the  other  side  of  the   ridge, 
while   Hangtown  Creek    w  a  9   impassable  en   account 
of    the    rains.      The    trail   to    Coon    Hollow    was    in- 
visible in  the  blinding  storm,  and   it    was   for   this 
reason     that    the     aforesaid    miners,    gamblers     and 
loafers   were   content    with    their   comfortable    quai 
ters  at   the  Badger. 

a  had  now  added  its  gloom  to  the  depres- 
sions of  the  day,  and  the  croud  at  the  Badger  con- 
tinued its  revelry  of  song  and  story,  to  which  the 
barkeep's  whisky  toddies  added  but  little  to  the 
pathos  of  story  or  melody  of  song.  In  the  midst 
of  this  revelry  of  song  and  Btory,  liarvey  Long, 
with  dripping  garments  and  glowing  face,  ap 
peared  on  the  scene.  A  seat  at  the  fire  and  a  glass 
of  old  Bourl.on  were  generou-ly  offered  by  half  a 
dozen  idlers  and  promptly  accepted  by  young  Long, 
as  he  had  made  the  two  miles  over  a  slippery  trail 
from   Coon  Hollow  in  a   pelting   storm. 

Harvey  Long,  by  his  frank  and  genial  manners, 
had  made  himself  a  favorite  will  all.  He  cabined 
alone  on  the  east  side  of  Coon  Hollow,  having  no 
neighbors  save  a  few  chattering  Chinese.  With 
these  jabbering  Mongols,  Harvey  was  a  "bellee" 
good  man.  For  two  long  years  Harvey  Long  had 
toiled  alone  in  his  bank-claim,  thinking  ever  of  the 
dear  old  mother  in  the  far-off  Alleghenies,  and  with 
an  occasional  thought  of  the  little  brown  house  on 
the  Roanoke.  Week  after  week  another  and 
another  oyster  can  was  filled  with  the  shining  dust 
and  carefully  hidden  away  beneath  the  cabin  floor. 
It  was  rumored  about  the  camp  that  Harvey  had 
sold  his  bank-claim  to  a  syndicate  of  Mormons,  who 
had  been  watching  his  clean-ups  for  some  time,  and 
that  he  had  agreed  fo  give  them  possession  on  the 
morrow.  It  was  for  the  purpose  of  settling  his 
little  accounts  at  the  store  and  blacksmith  shop  that 
Harvey  Long  had  come  to  Hangtown  on  so  stormy 
a  night. 

"Going  home!  Glorious  thought,  happy  boy'" 
It  was  whispered  around  that  Harvey  had  sold 
his  claim  for  $10,000  and  would  take  the  stage  for 
Sacramento  in  the  morning.  Everybody  rejoiced 
at  the  young  man's  success,  for  he  had  not  squan- 
dered his  money  at  the  saloons  or  foolishly  lost  it 
guessing  at  the  cards  as  they  came  from  the  faro- 
case  of  the  pretty  Senorita  who  presided  at  the 
• '  Black    Raven.  " 

The  storm  had  now  ceased  and  the  drifting 
clouds  had  revealed  a  full-orbed  moon  just  peep- 
ing up  from  behind  the  snowy  crest  of  the  Sierras. 
The  roaring  waters  in  the  gulches  below  were'  still 
keeping  up  their  mournful  echoes,  while  the  sway- 
ing pines  on  the  steep  hillsides  seemed  to  murmur, 
"Going  home.      Going   home." 

When  Harvey  Long  announced  his  intention  of 
starting  for  home  next  day.  it  naturally  turned  the 
thoughts  of  every  miner  in  camp  in  the  same  direc- 
tion, and  in  many  a  Lonely  cabin  that  night  oyster 
cans  and  buckskin  purses  wore  sea  rched  for  rare 
specimens  to  be  taken  by  Harvey  to  the  Eastern 
homes  of  the  miners.  Arkansas  Pete  borrowed  a 
ten-dollar  nugget  to  be  left  at  the  home  of  a  buxom 
lass,  who  engineered  a  dairy  on  Red  River.  Here 
and  there,  in  those  lonely  cabins  that  night,  brown 
hands,  by  the  flickering  firelight,  wrote  loving  words 
to  mother,  wife  or  sweetheart  and  Home.  Home, 
was    the   dream   of   all. 

Hangtown  awoke  with  the  dawn,  and  miners,  gam- 
blers and  loafers  wont  their  various  ways. 
revelers  at  the  BadgeT  struggled  hard  to  shake  off 
their  last  night's  drunk,  while  the  rattle  of  the  dice- 
box  at  the  Black  Raven  was  hushed  and  si 
Nine,  ten.  eleven  o'clock,  and  all  was  well;  but 
just  as  the  clock  struck  the  hour  of  noon,  a  Terri- 
fied Mongolian  eame  rushing  down  from  Coon  Hol- 
low and  fell  exhausted  in  front  of  the  Badger,  cry- 
ing, "Harvee!  Harvee!  Him  bankee  cave  in. 
llarvee.    him    killed' 


THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


March 


"Great  Scott,  boys,"  yelled  Tom  Texas,  as  he 
started  off  at  breakneck  'speed  over  the  rocks  and 
up  the  winding  trail,  followed  by  a  motley  crowd  of 
miners,  Mexicans  and  Mongols.  Men  stood  aghast 
as  they  gazed  on  that  great  bank  of  fallen  rock  and 
earth  which  had  so  recently  entombed  a  human 
form.  The  hissing  waters,  as  they  dashed  over  the 
rocks  in  the  gulehes,  seemed  to  cry,  ' '  Hurry! 
Hurry!",  while  the  tall  forest  trees,  with  rustling 
lips,    whispered,    ' '  Gone    home.      Gone    home. ' ' 

"Turn  on  the  pipes,  boys;  we'll  wash  him  out," 
cried  fancy  Nancy  Bean. 

Harvey  Long  had  cleaned  up  his  last  sluice.  The 
winter  gusts,  as  they  swept  through  the  forest 
trees,  sang  sharply,  "Too  late!  Too  late!",  while 
the  deeper  swells  of  the  mountain  winds,  in  their 
saddest  refrain,  murmured,  "Gone  home.  Gone 
home. ' ' 

Nancy  Bean,  out  of  the  depths  of  her  woman 's 
nature,  covered  the  bruised  face  of  the  young  miner 
with  her  gingham  apron,  and  the  remains  of  the 
dead  were  tenderly  borne  down  the  rocky  trail  to 
iiangtown.  It  was  noticed  that,  as  an  evidence  of 
regard  for  the  unfortunate  young  miner,  the  doors 
of  the  Badger  were  closed  for  the  first  time  in  two 
years,  and  it  was  whispered — by  those  who  knew — 
that  the  dark-eyed  Senorita  at  the  Black  Raven 
would  deal  no  cards  that  night.  Dick  Myers,  the 
barkeep  at  the  Badger,  was  off  like  the  wind  to 
Coloma  in  quest  of  Parson  Weight.  Dick  declared 
if  money  would  fetch  the  preacher,  he  would  have 
him  on  the  first  deal. 

Every  effort  was  made  by  the  miners  to  make  the 
funeral  of  Harvey  Long  a  memory-episode  in 
the  history  of  Hangtown.  In  default  of  casket  or 
shroud,  the  married  women  of  the  camp  hastily 
contributed  suitable  dressings  for  the  body — at  the 
expense,  it  was  feared,  of  long  unused  finery — and 
it  was  not  considered  presumptious,  in  those  Pio- 
neer days,  when  the  presiding  genius  of  the  faro- 
case  silently  dropped  an  evergreen  twig  on  the 
grave.  This  womanly  act  of  the  brown-eyed 
Senorita  was  considered  the  right  thing  at  the  right 
time,  especially  as  Harvey  Long  had  never  tried  his 
luck  at  the  faro-case  or  darkened  the  doors  of  the 
Black  Raven. 


Morning  again  at  Hangtown.  Already  on  a  grassy 
hillside,  among  a  few  clustering  oaks,  a  spot  was 
selected  for  the  grave — far  removed,  it  was  thought, 
from  all  future  danger  from  pick  or  plow.  But  alas! 
for  poor  Harvey's  grave,  like  thousands  of  other 
Pioneer  graves,  formed  a  page  in  the  country's  his- 
tory, only  to  be  blotted  out  by  the  ruthless  plow 
or  trampled  down  by  the  dairyman 's  cows.  Men 
stood  with  uncovered  heads  at  the  grave  that  day, 
and  were  moved  by  the  strange,  unfamiliar  words 
of  the  preacher,  the  language  of  the  parson  was 
so  unlike  the  slang  of  the  gambler's  dfen. 

At  the  head  of  the  grave  stood  the  three  Pioneer 
Mothers,  while  at  a  little  distance  stood  the  fair 
Senorita  leaning  heavily  on  the  arm  of  Dick  Myers, 
who  was  quietly  contemplating  the  scene.  Poor 
Dick — he  was  just  as  calm  six  months  later,  when 
he  lay  on  the  floor  of  a  saloon  at  Coloma  with  a 
bullet  hole  in  his  heart.  Dick's  folks  at  home  never 
knew  of  his  wild  life  in  California,  and  a  gray- 
haired  mother  on  the  Delaware  is  still  wondering 
what  has  become  of  the  boy  she  so  tenderly  kissed 
good-by  at  the  garden  gate. 

*  *  3t  .      *  *  *  * 

To-day,  through  the  progress  of  civilization  and 
the  craft  of  man,  the  historic  camp  of  Hangtown 
has  been  transformed  into  a  city  of  beautiful  homes 
and  busy  men.  The  traditional  sluice-box  lies  bat- 
tered and  broken  on  the  red  hillsides,  while  the 
clatter  and  clang  of  the  long  torn  have  given  way  to 
the  laugh  of  the'  schoolboy  and  the  neigh  of  the 
iron-horse.  Far  up  on  the  heights  the  needle- 
leaved  pines  still  sway  and  sing  at  night,  and  far 
away  in  the  sunny  South  a  lonely  maiden  still  sits 
at  the  parlor  window  of  the  little  brown  house  on 
the  Roanoke  and  wonders  when  Harvey  will  come 
back. 

The  wild  flowers  out  under  the  walnut  trees  still 
blossom  as  of  yore,  and  the  birds  sing  as  sweetly, 
but  Julia  Winters  is  not  the  maid  of  two  years 
before.  The  music  has  gone  from  her  heart,  and 
she  is  lonely  and  sad,  for  the  boy  she  loved  lies 
under  the  rocks  in  the  far-off  Sierras. 


Important  Happenings  in 

California  Fifty  Years  Ago 

(COMPILED  FOR  THE  GKIZZLT  BEAR  BY  THOMAS  R.  JONES.) 


PROUD  OF  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAR. 

Xortonville,  December  17th. 
Editor  Grizzly  Bear — Dear  Sir:  "We  Native  Sons 
and  Native  Daughters  are  proud  of  The  Grizzly 
Bear,  and  hope  to  see  the  day  when  it  will  greet 
us  weekly,  and  then  daily.  The  future  is  bright 
with  glowing  promises,  founded  upon  the  sure  pos- 
sibilities of  our  sons  and  daughters  of  this  one 
glorious  State,  known  by  name,  even  by  children, 
wherever  the  English  language  is  spoken.  Yours 
fraternally.  HANDEL  THOMAS. 


ARCH,  1861,  CAME  IN  LIKE  A 
lion  and  went  out  roaring  louder 
than  it  came  in.  A  steady  rain- 
storm, lasting  nearly  a  week,  pre- 
vailed during  the  first  part  of  the 
month;  then  came  a  spell  of  warm 
weather,  the  16th  being  the  warmest 
day  in  San  Francisco  since  October; 
but  on  the  21st,  what  was  called 
an  equinoctial  storm  set  in,  and  it 
lasted  until  the  27th.  It  began  with 
a  heavy  fall  of  snow  in  the  foot- 
hills and  mountains,  which  changed  on  the  23rd 
to  a  warm  rainstorm  extending  from  Siskiyou  to 
San  Diego.  Rivers  and  creeks  could  not  hold  the 
flood  waters  and  an  inundation  took  place  that  had 
not  been  equaled  for  ten  years.  Bridges  across  the 
Yuba,  American,  Cosumnes  and  other  rivers  were 
swept  away,  and  for  three  days  stages  were  un- 
able to  follow  their  routes  to  and  from  the  prin- 
cipal towns.  The  Placerville  stage,  in  crossing 
Deer  Creek,  was  swept  away  and  the  driver,  Leander 
White,  drowned.  A  dozen  more  drowning  acci- 
dents occurred  in  the  State  and  the  destruction  of 
bridges,  roads,  mining  property,  livestock  and 
human  life  exceeded  all  previous  records.  There 
was  some  speculation  indulged  in  by  weather  ex- 
perts as  to  the  probability  of  California  under- 
going a  change  of  its  climate,  due  to  the  advent 
of  the  white  race  and  the  mining  industry  destroy- 
ing the  forests  and  streams  and  changing  the 
topography  of  the  eountry. 

The  continuous  and  heavy  rain  storms  had  an 
effect  upon  the  miners  that  was  unexpected  and 
for  which  they  evidently  were  unprepared.  The 
rainfalls  saturated  the  ground  so  thoroughly  that 
many  bank  caves  occurred  where  the  banks  had 
hitherto  stood  without  bracing.  There  were  six- 
teen fatal  accidents  reported  in  the  press  of  miners 
caught  beneath  caving  banks,  and  probably  there 
were  as  many  more  that  were  not  published;  these 
casualties,  with  those  occurring  from  drowning, 
made  a  sad  record  for  the  mining  population  in  the 
State  for  this  nionth.  A  sincere  sympathy  for  their 
neighbors  in  distress,  was  a  striking  characteristic 
of  the  population  of  the  mining  towns  in  the  early 
days,  and  this  was  always  strongly  manifested 
when    death    entered   a   household. 

At  Volcano  a  distressing  accident  occurred  on 
March  2nd,  when  Margaret  Rowle,  a  beautiful 
girl  seventeen  years  of  age,  while  kindling  a  fire 
caught  a  spark  in  her  dress  and  was  so  severely 
burned  that  she  died  on  the  5th.  On  the  day  of 
her  funeral  stores  were  closed,  mines  shut  down 
and  all  business  suspended,  while  the  entire  com- 
munity attended  the  funeral.  Fourteen  young 
women  near  her  own  age,  dressed  in  white  with 
black  veils,  followed  the  hearse,  and  more  than  a 
hundred  women  marched  two  by  two  from  the 
house   to   the   grave. 

Scarlet  fever  was  raging  in  Georgetown,  El 
Dorado  County.  Nearly  every  family  had  a  child 
afflicted  with  the  dire  disease,  and  fifteen  children 
died  during  the  nionth  with   the  fever. 

Putrid  sore  throat  was  epidemic  in  San  Joaquin 
County  and  at  the  new  town  of  Mokelumne  City 
several  deaths  had  occurred  among  children  afflicted 
witn  the   disease. 

'mere  was  said  to  be  an  epidemic  of  gout  at 
Hornitos;  the  statement  created  considerable  doubt, 
as  it  was  not  supposed  Californians  had  the  time 
to  cultivate  that  ailment. 

Election    of   Senator   McDougall. 

The  Legislature  was  in  session  during  the  entire 
month,  but  owing  to  politics  occupying  so  much 
time  very  little  in  the  way  of  practical  legislation 
was  accomplished.  The  Union  resolutions  con- 
tinued to  be  debated  with  the  earnestness  and 
warmth  of  strong  partisan  feeling  until  the  5th, 
wnen  apparently  the  change  in  the  administration 
at  Washington  dampened  the  ardor  of  the  orators 
and  speechiuaking  to  save  the  Union  all  at  once 
ceased. 

The  Assembly  on  the  9th  passed  the  resolutions 
declaring  California  loyal  to  the  Union  by  a  vote 
of  40  to  22,  but  the  Senate  kept  postponing  the 
taking  of  a  vote  upon  the  resolutions  until  the 
month  passed  away  without  the  Senate  going  on 
record. 

The  election  of  a  United  States  Senator  opened 
a  Pandora  box  of  troubles  unexpected  and  never 
before  experienced  by   a  Legislature.     The   Senate 


and  Assembly  met  in  joint  convention  on  March  9th 
and  began  balloting  for  the  election  of  the  suc- 
cessor to  Senator  Wm.  M.  Gwin,  whose  term  had 
expired  on  the  4tn.  The  first  ballot  resulted  as 
follows:  J.  B.  Weller  27.  John  Nugent  9,  J.  W. 
Denver  16,  J.  A.  McDougall  27,  T.  G.  Phelps  23  and 
a  number  of  scattering  votes.  The  Legislature  in 
joint  convention  had  115  members,  making  it  neces- 
sary, if  a  full  vote  was  east,  for  the  choice  to 
receive  58  votes.  Balloting  continued  without  any 
election,  day  after  day,  until  March  20th,  when, 
through  what  was  claimed  to  be  a  political  compact, 
the  Republican  vote  went  to  McDougall. 

When  the  Republicans,  through  the  withdrawal 
and  leadership  of  State  Senator  Phelps,  began 
changing  their  votes  on  the  twenty-second  ballot 
to  McDougall,  there  were  enacted  scenes  of  personal 
strife  that  were,  pronounced  a  disgrace  to  the 
Legislature  and  the  State.  Amid  imprecations  of 
angry  men,  the  president  announced  the  vote  as 
being  a  total  of  111,  McDougall  receiving  56, 
Nugent  47,  balance  scattering.  He  then  declared 
McDougall  elected  and  adjourned  the  joint  conven- 
tion sine  die.  'ihen  it  was  discovered  a  mistake  had 
been  made  by  a  clerk  in  recording  the  vote,  as  113 
votes  had  been  cast,  with  two  scattering  being 
omitted  in  the  summing  up,  therefore  McDougall 
had  not  received  a  majority  of  votes  cast  and  had 
not   been   elected. 

What  to  do  about  it,  now  became  a  matter  of 
serious  contention  and  concern.  After  a  week  of 
debate  and  the  proposal  of  a  large  number  of 
methods  of  procedure,  it  was  finally  decided  to  call 
another  joint  convention  and  ballot  again  for  Sena- 
tor. This  was  done  on  April  2nd,  when  McDougall 
received  57  votes  out  of  a  total  of  105  east,  and 
was  duly  declared  elected — without  a  doubt  this, 
time. 

Senator  McDougall  owed  his  success  primarily  to* 
the  fact  that,  as  a  Demrocrat,  he  made  an  address 
in  February  defining  his  position  as  that  of  an 
unfaltering  Union  man,  and  as  the  Republicans; 
could  not  elect  one  of  their  own  party  United: 
States  Senator,  McDougall,  through  the  utterance- 
of  his  Union  sentiments,  became  their  choice  and 
received  their  support  at  an  opportune  time  when: 
his  adherents  obtained  enough  votes  to  make  a. 
successful  combination.  Senator  McDougall  had. 
long  been  one  of  the  leading  public  citizens  of  San 
Francisco  and  participated,  as  a  speaker,  in  every- 
public  function  and  political  campaign.  He  was  an 
authority  on  the  English  language  and  frequently 
lectured  upon  it  in  an  entertaining  and  intellectual 
way.  He  was  a  man,  like  many  others  prominent 
in  public  life  at  that  time,  of  convivial  habits  and 
was  often  the  personal  magnet  of  a  bibulous; 
gathering  of  bright  minds  and  eloquent  tongues. 
It  is  related  that  upon  an  occasion,  while  listening- 
to  the  rambling  speech  of  a  State  Senator,  he  was. 

queried   by  a   bystander:      "Is   not   Senator  

intoxicated? ' '  '  'Intoxicated?' '  was  his  reply,, 
"no,  sir!  No  American  citizen  is  ever  intoxicated 
who  can  correctly  pronounce  the  word  'segregated,' 
and  he  has  done  so  twice  in  the  last  ten  minutes."" 

Upon  the -announcement  of  .Senator  McDougall 's 
election  his  supporters  procured  .  a  cannon  and 
enough  powder  to  fire  a  salute  of  fifty-seven  guns, 
the  total  of  his  vote  in  the  joint  convention.  Th& 
place  selected  was  in  front  of  the  Orleans  Hotel  on 
Second  street  in  Sacramento.  The  hotel  was  then 
the  political  headquarters  of  the  Capital  City.  The- 
effect  of  the  first  gun  could  not  have  been  worse- 
had  a  salvo  been  fired.  There  was  a  crashing  and 
sound  of  broken,  falling  glass  from  every  window 
in  the  block.  The  glass  of  over  a  hundred  windows 
was  broken  and  a  panic  equal  to  that  following; 
an    earthquake    ensued. 

Mining  Bill  of  Far-reaching  Effect. 

This  Legislature  passed  a  bill  legalizing  the  levy- 
ing of  assessments  and  the  sale  of  delinquent  stock, 
that  has  had  a  more  far-reaching  effect  than  was 
ever  expected  by  its  author.  It  was  intended  to- 
promote  the  mining  industry  by  providing  a  legal 
means  of  freezing  out  the  stockholders  who  would 
not  pay  their  proportion  of  development  expenses. 
While  the  law  has  undoubtedly  enabled  a  great 
many  energetic  and  persistent  mine  owners  to  con- 
tinue development  work  that  brought  final  success* 
it  has  also  enabled  the  manipulators  who  control  the- 
Comstock  Lode  mines  to  work  the  pockets  of  their 
stockholders  continuously  without  requiring  any 
pockets  of  ore  in  their  mines  "to  aid  them  in  their 
systematic  methods  of  assessment  mining.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


A  lull  w.-is  introduced  to  allow  the  construct  ion 
of  wharves  and  the  establishment  of  a  ferry  at 
Suisuii  and  the  City  of  Now  York  of  the  Pacific, 
on  the  San  Joaquin  River  in  Contra  Costa  County, 
near  Antioch.  It  was  intended  to  establish  :i  stage 
line  between  San  Francisco  and  Sacramento,  going 
via  Pacheco  Valley  to  Oakland  and  ferry  across 
the  Bay. 

There  was  :i  proposition  to  divide  Shasta  County 
into  a  new  county  i"  be  called  Reading,  in  honor  of 
its  pioneer  citizen  P.  B.  Reading,  with  Millville  for 
t  he  county   seal . 

The  Legislature  wrangled  during  the  last,  part 
of  the  month  ovot  the  selection  of  a  resident 
physician  for  the  State  insane  asylum  at  Stockton. 
The  two  houses  mel  daily  in  joint  convention  and 
failed  to  give  a d >  candidates  majority.  Dr.  Aylett, 
the  incumbent,  received  the  support  of  the  Brecken- 
ridge  wing;  Dr.  Tilden  of  Butte,  the  Douglas  wing; 
i'i.  Spencer  of  Santa  Clara,  the  Republicans,  and 
Dr.  Thomas  of  Placer  and  Dr.  Ellis  a  fusion  and 
personal  following.  Aylett  had  thirty  live,  Tilden 
twenty  three,  Thomas  eleven,  Spencer  twenty-two 
and  Ellis  thirteen  votes  on  the  first  ballot,  and 
while  there  were  fluctuations,  no  one  candidate 
couid    command    an   election. 

The  particulars  of  President  Lincoln's  inaugura- 
tion at  Washington  on  March  ith  were  received  by 
Pony  Express  on  March  19th  and  the  facts  of  its 
peaceful  and  quiet  consummation  were  received  with 
a  sense  of  relief  and  great  satisfaction.  The  efforts 
to  compromise  the  differences  between  the  South 
and  North  appeared  to  be  making  headway  in  all 
parts  of  the  Union,  and  there  was  no  immediate 
prospect  of  hostilities  manifest  except  at  Charles- 
town,   South   i  andina. 

There  was  publisned  at  this  time  the  following: 
"Capt.  W,  T.  Sherman,  late  of  Ohio,  who  has  spent 
some  years  in  Louisiana,  having  charge  of  a  mili- 
tary school,  resigned  ins  post  on  the  passage  of  the 
secession  resolutions  by  that  State  and  went  north 
to  maintain  his  allegiance  to  the  Union.  This 
gentleman  resigned  his  commission  in  the  army 
while  stationed  in  lalifornia  to  become  a  member 
of  the  banking  nrm  of  Lmeas,  Turner  &  Co." 

Sports   of   Half-century  Ago. 

A  number  of  sportnu?  events  were  pulled  off 
during  the  month,  the  most  important  being  the 
following:  On  March  6th  in  Los  Angeles,  a  match 
t rotting  race  for  $500  a  side,  two  mile  heats,  be- 
tween Mr.  Bochman  's  ' '  Ben  Franklin "  and  Mr. 
Cothett's  "Honest  John"  was  won  by  the  latter. 
Besl    time  was  0:54. 

On  March  4th,  in  San  Francisco,  there  was  a 
foot  race  between  two  long-distance  runners  with 
State  reputations,  named  Derrick  and  ' '  Sheperd 
Boy,"  a  distance  of  ten  miles  for  $500  a  side. 
Ove)  -000  people  attended.  Derrick  sprained  his 
ankle  on  the  eighth  mile  and  was  beaten  twenty 
feet.  Time  for  the  ten  miles  was  sixty-five  minutes 
and  nineteen  seconds.  The  last  mile  was  run  in  six 
minutes  and  thirty-one  seconds. 

A  wood  sawing  match  was  pulled  off  at  Rough 
and  beady.  A  Dutchman  named  Gephard  was  a 
rival  of  an  Irishman  named  McCoy,  in  the  business, 
and  a  test  of  speed  and  endurance  was  arranged 
to  take  place  on  an  afternoon,  in  the  presence  of 
all  the  sports  of  the  camp.  John  Davis  was  selected 
to  act  as  official  saw  greaser,  and  stepped  between 
the  sawbueks  with  a  large  section  of  bacon  rind 
in  his  hand,  while  Stephen  Collins  was  bottle  holder 
and  referee.  Gephard  was  the  first  to  place  his  knee 
against  a  stick  and  make  the  sawdust  fly.  He 
sawed  with  such  energy  that  at  the  end  of  six 
minutes  he  showed  signs  of  distress.  Perspiration 
in  large  drops  fell  from  his  brow  and  in  many 
rivulets  trickled  down  his  body.  He  was  sponged 
off  and  sti undated  by  the  bottle  holder  and  then 
resumed  the  operation  of  his  saw,  but  at  the  end 
of  eleven  minutes  his  wind  gave  out  entirely  and 
he  collapsed,  leaving  the  slow-moving  McCoy  to 
be    announced    the    winner    and   champion. 

Lifting  machines  were  very  popular  and  betting 
on  the  lifting  powers  of  strong  built  citizens  was 
a  source  of  great  amusement,  many  not  coming  up 
to  expectations  based  upon  their  physical  propor- 
tions.  John  Miller  of  Stockton  was  the  champion 
lifter,  with  1040  pounds  as  a  record  lift;  it  was 
twenty  pounds  the  best  of  many  others.  The  lift 
of   the   average   man    was   710   pounds. 

J.  K.  Doak  living  near  San  Andreas  was  the 
owner  of  four  imported  Kangaroo  greyhounds. 
They  had  captured  during  the  winter  eighteen  foxes 
and  ten  wildcats.  They  were  so  fleet  of  foot  noth- 
ing on   four  legs  could  get  away  from  them. 

A  grizzly  bear  visited  the  house  of  Thomas  Riggs 
on  Flat  Creek,  Shasta  County,  and  finding  the  door 
open  at  night,  walked  into  a  bedroom,  smelled  of 
the  children 's  faces,  was  slapped  by  a  five-year- 
old  boy  over  the  snout  in  the  darkness,  then  wob- 
bled  into  the  kitchen,  took  hold  of  a  piece  of  meat 
and  departed.  The  grizzly  returned  the  next  night, 
but  being  shot  at  scampered  off  and  disappeared.

Don  Augustine  Alviso  and  Don  Guadalupe  Selaya 
of  Santa  Clara  County  were  again  to  try  conclu- 
sions in  a  mustang  race  for  $5000  a  side.  Distance 
was  to  lie  thirty-sis  miles,  starting  from  Washing- 
ton I  orners,  to  San  Jose,  and  back.  April  Lsl  was 
i he   final   date  sol    for  t he   race. 

Gift  entertainments  were  springing  up  like  stems 
in  an  asparagus  bed,  no  less  than  seven  being  ad 
vertised  to  take  place  in  Match,  April  and  May. 
G.  'I.  Ilriggs  was  to  the  front  with  another  dupli 
cation  of  his  first  success.  This  was  to  lake  place 
at  Marysville  in  March.  The  first  prize  was  the 
Old  Briggs  Orchard,  165  acres,  on  the  Yuba  River, 
with  a  hotel  and  other  buildings  valued  at  $210,000. 
He  claimed  $125,000  worth  of  fruit  was  marketed 
from  the  place  in  I860'.  The  second  prize  was  a 
vineyard  of  ten  acres,  two  and  one-fourth  miles 
t'roni  Marysville,  with  8000  vines  valued  at  $8000. 
There  were  to  ho  142  other  prizes  and  114,350 
chances  at  $2  a  c  ha  nee.  Mr.  *  'rabt  ree  at  Grass 
Valley  aad  an  entertainment  wit  li  a  farm  on  Bear 
River,  250  acres,  valued  at  $9000,  as  the  first  prize 
and  IIS  other  gifts  with  a  valuation  of  $6330. 
There  were  7500  chances  at  $2  each.  C.  L.  Parish, 
at  Jackson,  aad  one  for  March  30th  with  a  house 
and  lot  as  the  first  prize,  a  span  of  horses,  a  piano, 
etc.  There  were  100  prizes,  with  S650  chances  at 
a  dollar  each.  There  were  mining  claims,  grain 
fields,  furniture,  jewelry,  books,  etc.,  in  others,  mak- 
ing a  grand  collection  of  about  everything  a  per- 
son could  desire  to  get  rid  of.  Some  ludicrous 
incidents  occurred  in  the  distribution  of  these 
prizes.  At  Auburn,  a  Chinamen  won  a  Webster 's 
unabridged  dictionary  and  the  proprietor  of  a  Mexi- 
can dance  house  an   illustrated  Bible  worth  $25. 

Miners   Meet   With    Success. 

On  the  South  Fork  of  the  Yuba  River  in  Sierra 
County,  two  Frenchmen  working  a  claim  struck 
gravel  from  which  they  washed  in  five  hours  138 
ounces  of  gold  dust  worth  over  $27  00;  the  next 
day  they  extracted  fifty-five  ounces  worth  over 
$1000.  ±ms  claim  had  been  covered  by  the  water 
of  a  dam  for  several  years,  but  the  heavy  storm 
of  the  23rd  caused  the  dam  to  break,  released  the 
water,  and  gave  the  Frenchmen  an  opportunity. 

Copper  veins  in  Salt  Spring  Valley,  Calaveras 
County,  began  to  attract  attention.  A  vein  eight 
feet  wide  was  being  developed  and  C.  T.  Meader  & 
Co.  of  Stoekton  made  a  shipment  of  the  ore  to 
Boston.  Copperopolis  now  appeared  for  the  first 
time  upon  the  map  and  was  the  precursor  of  a  big 
excitement. 

Terrill  and  Hardy,  on  Bostwick  Bar,  Stanislaus 
River,  washed  twenty  ounces  in  one  day. 

Mallory  and  Gerber,  at  Red  Dog,  had  one  pan  of 
dirt  from  their  claim  that  produced  $114  in  gold 
dust. 

The  mines  at  Dutch  Flat,  Placer  County,  were 
producing  $25,000  a  week  and  those  of  Forest  Hill, 
in  the  same  county,  $30,000  a  week. 

Robert  Kelly  of  Timbuctoo  had  one  of  the  richest 
claims  in  the  State.  He  cleaned  up  $14,000  from 
a   twelve-days '    run. 

Joseph  Colwell  of  Pittsburg,  Sierra  County,  found 
a  three-pound  lump  of  gold  in  his  claim. 

The  Coso  mine  in  Mono  County  was  the  destina- 
tion of  over  200  prospectors  who  passed  through 
Visalia  enroute  thereto.  One  party  had  a  train 
of  forty  pack  animals  loaded  with  supplies. 

The  development  of  the  Mt.  Diablo  coal  mines 
was  being  vigorously  attended  to.  Two  tunnels 
were  being  run  into  the  mountain  about  1500  feet 
above  the  river  and  it  was  expected  50,000  tons 
would  be  extracted  during  the  year.  The  consump- 
tion of  coal  in  California  was  estimated  to  be 
80,000  tons  per  annum,  so  there  was  no  danger  of 
the  supply  exceeding  the  demand.  Prof.  J.  D. 
Whitney,  State  Geologist,  delivered  a  lecture  for 
the  benefit  of  the  legislators  at  Sacramento,  and 
among  other  interesting  things  stated  that,  from 
a  cursory  examination  of  the  coal  deposits  of  Mt. 
Diablo,  he  believed  they  were  apparently  inex- 
haustible. Yet  today  little  is  left  of  them.  The 
interior  of  Mt.  Diablo  where  the  coal  deposits  were 
found,  if  the  theory  of  scientists  is  correct,  must 
have  been  at  one  time  in  the  far  distant  past  a 
dismal  tropical   swamp. 

The  California  Coal  Co.,  with  a  capital  of  $.">.nOu. 
000  and  oil. nun  shares,  and  four  other  companies 
to  mine  Mt.  Diablo  coal,  were  incorporated  at  this 
time. 

The  Hale  and  Nareross  mine,  on  the  Comstock 
Lode,  was  incorporated  March  22nd,  with  $400,000 
capital    and    800    shares. 

A  race  war  broke  out  at  Coloma  between  the 
Irishmen  and  Chinamen  at  that  place.  A  company 
of  the  former  attempted  to  mine  the  gravel  under 
a  <  'hinamen's  store  and  were  assaulted  by  the 
*  liinese.  Forty  Irishmen  assembled  in  defense  of 
their  countrymen  and  cleaned  out  the  Chinese  quar- 
ter, inflicting  serious  injury  to   many  and   destroy- 


ing property  to  tin1  value  of  over  $10,000.  Sixteen 
of    i  he    leading    spirits     were    arrested,    taken     to 

I'lacer\  ille.    Iiir.l,    found    guilty,    and    fined    $200    each. 

Rich   diggings   were   reported   found    near   Bodega 

and    there     was    :i     rush     from     I'etalinna    and     nearby 

towns  in  the  spot. 
A   rich    ledge   of   silver   ore    was    reported    found 

by    E,    Pint  \  ma  n    ro-a  i     Rough    and    h'oady. 

A   Santa    Barbara   paper  published  the   following: 

"Santa  Barban atj  contains  inexhaustible  beds 

of  asphaltum.  Two  companies  are  now  at  work 
extracting  petroleum.  One  eompanj  is  making  a 
good  quality  of  kerosene,  which  is  pronounced 
superior  to  the  imported  coal  oil.  In  several  places 
in  the  county  oil  has  boon  found  oozing  from  the 
earth    and    it    is    expected    that    by    boring,    plenty     of 

it   can   be  obtained. 

Heavy   Grain   Shipments. 

An  agreement  was  made  between  the  Board  of 
State  Prison  Directors  and  Donald  Mi-Lea  of  San 
Francisco  to  lease  sixty  convicts  to  hnn  for  one 
year  at  thirty  cents  a  day.  The  prisoners  were 
to  ma nu  fad  ure  clothing  at  the  prison,  to  be  for- 
warded   to    San    Francisco,    from    where    raw     material 

was  to  In-  supplied  by  I  he  contractors,  It  was 
hoped  by  this  method  to  make  the  State  prison  at 
San    Quentin    self-sustaining. 

There  was  trouble  in  Santa  Clara  County  between 
the  sheriff  and  his  deputies  and  the  settlers  on 
the  Chaballa  rancho,  east  of  Coyote  ('reek.  The 
settlers  assembled  in  such  strength  of  numbers  that 
they  disarmed  tin-  officers  -who  came  to  eject  them. 
and  prevented  the  writs  of  ejectment  from  being 
served. 

St.  Patrick's  Day  came  on  Sunday,  so  that  Mon- 
day, the  ISth,  was  observed  in  San  Francisco. 
Sacramento,  Forest  Hill  and  other  places  with  pro- 
cessions, orations  and  grand  balls  as  Ireland's  Day. 
General  James  Shields  delivered  the  oration  in  San 
Francisco. 

The  news  of  the  formation  of  the  territory  of 
Nevada  was  received  during  the  mouth  with  great 
satisfaction.  It  caused  a  big  advance  in  the  values 
of  real  estate  in  Carson  City,  the  prices  on  some 
of  the  town  lots  being  higher  thau  that  of  a  gold 
mine. 

There  was  a  heavy  movement  of  grain  from 
interior  points  to  tide  water,  where  ships  were 
loaded  for  Europe.  The  ocean  freight  charge  was 
$14  a  ton,  and  wheat  bought  at  $4.25  a  barrel  was 
selling  in  England  at  $S.  Stockton  was  shipping 
5000  sacks  and  Red  Bluff  500  sacks  a  week  by 
river  barges.  From  ouisun,  by  water,  23,109.644 
pounds  of  grain  had  been  shipped  since  the  harvest 
began  in  June. 

Qumcy,  Plumas  County,  was  partially  destroyed 
by  fire  on  March  2nd;  ten  business  houses  burned, 
with  a  $35,000  loss. 

Seven  buildings  were  burned  March  15th  on  Fol- 
som  street  wharf,  San  Francisco,  with  a  $15,000 
loss. 

The  National  flour  mill,  in  San  Francisco,  was 
burned  March  5th  with   a  loss  of  $12,000. 


SURVIVORS  OF  PIONEER  PARTY 

GATHER   IN   ANNUAL   REUNION. 

At  the  Lodi,  San  Joaquin  County,  home  of  Rev. 
J.  W.  Brier,  February  4th,  the  "  Jayhawkers, "  sur- 
viving members  of  the  first  party  of  white  people 
who  ever  crossed  Death  Valley,  met  in  annual  re- 
union and  recounted  their  early  day  experiences. 
The  date  marked  the  anniversary  of  the  arrival  of 
the  party  at  San  Franeisquito  Ranch,  near  Los  An- 
geles, in  1S50.  The  surviving  members  are  Colonel 
John  B.  Colten  of  Kansas  City,  Missouri;  Dow 
Stevens,  of  San  Jose,  John  < !  rosseanpe  of  Mendo- 
cino County  and  Mrs.  Juliette  Wells  Brier.  The 
latter  was  the  only  woman  in  this  memorable  party, 
and  is  now  98  years  of  age,  but  in  perfect  health. 

Like  all  other  pioneer  parties,  this  one  endured 
many  hardships  from  the  time  it  set  out  from  Salt 
Lake.  Three  hundred  people,  made  up  of  Mormons 
and  those  of  other  religious  sects,  with  105  wagons, 
left  Salt  Lake  City  on  October  7.  1849.  bound  for 
California  under  the  guidance  of  Captain  Hunt.  At 
intervals  the  party  drifted  apart,  some  cutting 
across  country  and  some  turning  back,  until  only 
thirty-six  remained  to  finish  the  journey.  Death 
Valley  was  reached  on  Christmas  Eve.  1849.  Nine 
of  the  party  succumbed  on  this  occasion,  and  those 
who  braved  the  awful  trials  of  starvation,  thirst, 
and  battles  with  the  Indians  called  themselves  the 
"  Javhawkers. "

THEME  FOE  A  MAY  FESTIVAL. 


=H  AM  GOlisG  TO  TELL  MY  DEEJERS 
the  story  of  the  first  May  Festival 
among  the  Aryans — those  ancestors 
of  the  white  man  who  have  since 
spread  over  Europe  and  America 
and  to  whom  we  belong.  Every- 
thing about  the  Aryans  ought  to  be 
of  interest  to  us,  ±or  their  words, 
spoken  thousands  of  years  ago,  are 
our  words  today.  When  we  say 
•'daughter,"  we  are  using  the  terms 
they  did  in  that  ancient  home  of 
the  white  man,  and  also  that  other  fine  word  which 
stands  for  so  much — "brother."  The  daughter  was 
the  little  milkmaid;  the  brother  was  the  burden- 
bearer,  and  he  was  also  anciently  called  "Bub." 
When  I  speak  of  a  fairy  I  mean  to  symbolize 
an  idea — just  as  we  speak  of  Uncle  Sam,  to  repre- 
sent the  United  States  of  America.  There  is  no 
such  person  and  never  was — it  is  a  name  used  to 
symbolize  the  genius  of  our.  country.  So  follows 
the  story  of  our  Aryan  ancestors,  knowing  that 
this  is  the  only  way  to  express  quickly  and  pic- 
turesquely the  genius  of  the  early  white  man  from 
which  we  sprang.  They  were  thriftless  and  stupid 
at  first,  until  one  day  they  found  "Seven  Faithful 
Fairies"  in  a  nest  and  took  them  home,  where 
they  grew  to  be  their  guardians  and  advisers.  Now 
of  course  the  first  and  most  important  of  these 
was  the  fairy  of  "Honest  Work" — sometimes 
called  the  Hammerer  and  sometimes,  when  he  got 
mad  at  being  imposed  upon,  "Wor-kik-abus." 
Next  came  "  Little  Sister  of  Growing  Things," 
which  represented  agriculture,  domestic  animals. 
birds,  butterflies  and  children.  Her  name  was 
Ar-Vyvah,  representing  vital  energy,  and  the 
King's  children  called  her  "The  Fairy  of  Bread." 
The  other  five  fairies  stood  for  Music,  Art,  Letters, 
Science  and   Common  Sense. 

But  I  shall  not  speak  of  them  now.  I  want  to 
tell  you  how  to  get  up  a  May  Festival  that  will 
surpass  anything  we  have  ever  imagined  here  in 
our  beloved  State  of  California  to  represent  our 
Republic,  free  from  any  ideas  of  monarchy  and  at 
the  same  time  give  pleasure  to  all  the  family,  from 
the  tiniest  to  the  grandfathers  and  the  grand- 
mothers. You  have  found  out  by  this  time,  I 
imagine,  that  this  department  stands  first  of  all 
for  the  HOME  and  the  domestic  side  of  things, 
i  am  utterly  opposed  to  breaking  down  our  Repub- 
lic by  this  monarchy  idea  creeping  into  all  our 
processions,  as  if  we  had  to  borrow  kings  and 
queens  to  bow  before  in  order  to  enjoy  ourselves. 
Yes.  that  is  what  is  the  matter  with  Hannah: — she 
does   not    like    it   at   all! 

The  chief  man  of  the  Aryan  tribe  was  the  Father 
of  his  people  and  he  had  four  children — two  boys 
and  two  girls.  The  boys  were  Ind,  who  afterwards 
settled  in  Indiana;  Sax,  who  afterwards  roved  to 
Germany  and  Britain;  the  girls  were  Gree,  who 
had  such  a  beautiful  time  in  Greece;  and  Latte, 
who  established  a  magnificent  record  in  history  in 
Rome.  That  shows  us  how  the  Aryans  spread  out 
and  how  we  are  related  to  each  other — we  of  the 
white  race.  And  we  all  ought  to  be  united  for 
our  mutual  protection  and  insist  upon  maintain- 
ing those  laws  which  are  framed  to  keep  us  a 
WHITE    RACE. 

It  is  an  ancient  thing  to  love  the  warm  rays  of 
the  miii.  and  the  Aryans  invented  many  marvelous 
tales  to  explain  the  reason  for  the  sun  going  away 
in  the  winter  time  and  coining  back  in  the  spring 
lime.  rJ  hey  were  I  he  ones  to  tell,  around  the  fires 
on  the  lung  cold  nights,  how  the  sleeping  beauty 
(who   was   the   world)    got   her  finger   hurt   by   the 


spindle  of  the  ice  frost  fairy  and  fell  asleep  until 
the  Prince  of  Springtime  came  and  kissed  her  on 
the  eyelids  and  wakened  her.  And  that  story  has 
been  repeated  ever  since,  but  no  one,  save  the 
scholars,  can  understand  that  it  is  merely  a  sym- 
bolism. We  all  are  children  of  the  sun  to  this  very 
day.  How  we  shiver,  even  in  California,  when  the 
loving  rain  keeps  up  too  long,  and  how  everybody 
is  out  with  smiles  on  their  faces  when  the  clouds 
clear  away  and  the  heavenly  blue  is  above  and 
showers  of  gold  radiate  everywhere!  What  then 
must  they  feel,  who  are  hemmed  in  with  snow  and 
ice  and  blizzards,  as  is  the  experience  of  those  who 
dwell  in  the  high  Sierras?  I  remember  once  when 
snow  fell  in  October  and  kept  up  all  winter  with 
a  knee-deep  finish  on  the  following  May-day  to 
cap  the  climax.  Maybe  I  can  understand  the  sensa- 
tions of  the  Aryans  better  than  can  most  of  our 
Native  Daughters  aud  Native  Sous  of  the  Golden 
West. 

Well,  I  can  see  them  in  that  land  of  theirs  where 
the  birch  tree  grew  (but  no  one  knows  exactly 
where  it  was),  in  the  midst  of  the  winter.  The 
father  was  the  king  in  those  days — aud  he  being 
wise,  knew  that  something  should  be  done  to  keep 
up  the  spirits  of  his  people.  Se  he  announced  that, 
when  the  sleep  of  the  Fairy  of  Bread — "The  Sister 
of  Growing  Things" — should  be  over  and  she 
should  awaken,  they  would  make  ready  for  such 
a  festival  as  was  never  given  before.  Everyone 
should  take  part.  There  should  be  gold  crowns  for 
all.  New  dances  should  be  invented,  and  the  old 
and  the  young  should  dance  together.  As  they 
already  knew  that  "Little  Sister"  never  wakened 
from  her  winter  sleep  till  her  eyelids  were  touched 
by  a  willow  bud — which  was  the  first  green  thing 
to  spring  up  in  the  dead  brown  branches  to  show 
the  world  was  still  alive — he  sent  his  children  out 
as  messengers  to  hunt  for  and  bring  back  the 
precious  things.  Meanwhile  watchers  sat  by  the 
glass  conin,  holding  the  form  of  Ar-Vyvah,  waiting 
for  her  to  waken,  and  they  saug  their  sweet 
lullabies,  that  her  dreams  should  be  sweet  and  com- 
forting; for  they  knew  that  their  lives  depended 
upon  her  life. 

The  Fairy  of  Work — poor  old  Wor-kik-abus — 
used  to  get  very  lonesome  for  his  "Little  Sister," 
for  he  never  had  any  time  to  take  even  a  holiday, 
as  everyone  depended  upon  him  to  keep  the  roofs 
mended  and  the  cattle  attended  to,  and  he  used  to 
be  very  anxious  for  her  sleep  to  come  to  an  end. 
So  when  he  heard  of  the  Festival  he  worked  all 
the  harder  to  help  the  other  fairies  get  up  a  May- 
pole dance  with  streamers  flying,  and  everybody 
practised  during  the  long  evenings  learning  how 
to  dance — the  young  and  the  old  together.  But 
the  first  willow  bud  brought  in  was  a  blighted  thing, 
and  they  did  not  dare  to  lay  it  on  the  eyelids  of 
the  sleeping  ' '  Fairy  of  Growing  Things, ' '  which 
includes  children,  so  they  waited  till  a  full  green 
bud  was  brought  in  later,  and  then  with  soft  sweet 
songs  they  waved  it  over  her  and  murmured: 

Awake,    sweet   world,   awake. 
Thou  art   but  sleeping,  this  we  know. 
Beneath  this  awful,  awful   gloom 
The  kiss  of  spring  is  on  thine  eyes, 
The  willow  bud  is  now  in  bloom. 

.She  ouly  opened  her  eyes  and  closed  them  again, 
for  many  calves  and  lambs  had  perished  during  the 
long,  long  winter.  However,  there  was  a  gurgle  of 
silvery  laughter  from  the  glass  coffin  and  when  they 
looked,  there  she  lay  with,  eyes  opened  and  full  of 
^merriment,  like  a  sprouting  seed  in  its  cradle. 
What?  You  never  saw  a  sprouting  seed  in  its 
cradle  and  never  heard  one  laughing  to  itself,  full 
of  joy  and  delight?  Well,  you  just  go  out  and 
listen  with  fairy  ears — that's  all  I  have  to_  say — 
it  is  simply  marvelous. 

They  knew  that  "Little  Sister"  was  always  a 
little  weird  when  first  she  woke  up  and  had  to  get 
acquainted  over  again  with  everybody.  So  they 
were  not  surprised  when  she  told  them  to  go  away — 
she  did  not  like  them  at  all,  with  their,  enormous 
eyes  and  big  mouths  and  tremendous  ears.  But 
they  were  filled  with  consternation  when  they  heard 
fairy  sobs  coming  from  the  glass  coffin,  for  she  was 
lonesome  for  somebody  but  could  not  remember 
who  it  was.  They  held  up  the  gold  crowns  and 
the  maypole  and  tried  to  tell  her  what  a  nice  time 
they  were  planning  for  the  festival,  but  she  waved 
them  all  away  and  seeing  in  someone's  hand  the 
hammer  demanded  it  at  once.  ' '  That 's  what  I 
want!"  she  explained.  But  when  she  got  it,  she 
was  still  in  a  state  of  doubt.  "It's  somebodv  I've 
forgotten,"  she  insisted.  "Oh.  I  know!  I  want 
my  brother  and  I  want  him  now!"  Everybody 
scampered    to    find    the    busy    Fairy    of    Work,    the 


Hammerer,  and  before  you  could  count  fifty  he 
was  there  by  the  side  of  the  glass  coffin,  and  tired 
out,  too,  with  all  the  extra  chores  on  hand,  while 
she  was  as  fresh  as  a  daisy  and  full  of  new  energy, 
which  bubbled  and  sparkled  in  her  like  the  leaven 
in   her   own   bread. 

"It's  a  good  thing  you  came  in  time,  Ml*.  Bub," 
she  announced,  "for  1  was  just  about  to  smash  this 
glass  coffin  with  your  dear  old  hammer,  and  I've 
got  so  much  to  tell  you,  it  will  take  me  three 
years,  day  and  night — for  we  are  going  to  start  the 
most  wonderful  seeds  growing  you  ever  saw.  I've 
got  my  apron  full  of  them — but  I  haven't  a  minute 
to  waste  for  I  want  to  start  on  the  almond  blos- 
soms, and  the  cherry  -blossoms,  and  the  peach  blos- 
soms, and  the  pear  blossoms.  As  she  flew  out  of 
her  glass  coffin,  she  talked  up  her  breath  and  down 
her  breath,  and  who  wouldn't  sympathize  with  poor 
Wor-kik-abus,  for  he  looked  as  if  a  hurricane  were 
blowing  on  him  and  as  if  he  could  hardly  tell  which 
was  the  truth,  tired  out  as  he  already  was  and  with 
all  this  new  energy  that  had  been  turned  loose  and 
nearly  bowling  him  over.  She  took  him  by  the 
hand,  as  little  children  do  who  like  to  walk  together, 
waved  everybody  away,  and  went  on  talking,  talk- 
ing, till  her  poor  brother,  the  Burden-Bearer,  closed 
his  eyes  in  sheer  exhaustion,  leaned  his  head  against 
the  wall  and  said  half  in  his  sleep,  "Yes,  indeed 
Little  Sister,"  "On,  that  will  be  fine,  Sister."  But 
she  went  on  just  the  same,  till  everybody  in  the 
kingdom  fell  asleep  where  they  were,  because  they 
could  not  stand  any  more. 

For  she  was  like  a  new  setting  of  bread,  rising 
and  rising  till  it  burst  all  boundaries,  covering 
everything  in  sight,  and  nobody  could  say  "Stop," 
till  it  got  ready  itself  at  the  end  of  its  exuberance. 
Of  course,  you  have  seen  bread  rise?  If  you 
haven't,  you've  missed  something.  There  they 
were,  all  asleep — the  men,  and  the  wives,  and  the 
children — with  their  heads  on  each  others  shoulders, 
while  Ar-Vyvah  went  on  and  on  till  at  last  she 
turned  and  said,  "Now,  you  lazy  things,  let's  get 
to  work!"  She  fell  to  laughing  at  the  sight,  and 
touched  her  brother  with  her  wand,  and  then  they 
two  touched  all  the  others  and  they  waked  up,  full 
of  new  energy,  and  ran  like  mad  to  attend  to  every- 
thing as  fast  as  possible,  for  they  had  lost  three 
days  out  of  the  calender.  The  snow  had  disap- 
peared, the  sun  was  shining,  and  the  festival  came 
off  like  magic.  Of  course  it  was  headed  by  the 
little  Queen  of  Agriculture  and  by  her  side,  walk- 
ing as  Prime  Minister,  was  jj.onest  Work,  carrying 
his  hammer  as  his  insignia  of  office.  She  was  all 
in  white,  as  if  copied  from  the  blossoms  of  the 
apple  tree,  with  a  dainty  veil  falling  from  her 
golden  crown  cap.  set  with  blossoms  as  lovely  as 
a  little  bride — only  that  there  never  was  a  prince 
for  her,  for  fairies  never  love  nor  marry.  They  are 
too  busy  working  for  man  all  the  time  to  think  of 
anything  else..  And  behind  them  marched  the 
faries  of  Music,  of  Art,  of  Letters,  of  Science  and 
of  Common  Sense.  Then  came  the  children  of  the 
Aryans,  led  by  Ind,  Sax,  Gree  and  Latte,  repre- 
senting the  families  of  the  White  Race.  To  which 
could  be  added  the  United  States  and  Britain,  if 
we  wanted  to  give  it  up-to-date  for  a  festival  of 
our  own. 

The  Maypole  was  set  up  and  the  new  dances 
started,  with  the  old  and  the  young  dancing  to- 
gether, all  wearing  their  golden  crowns  to  do  honor 
to  the  little  queen  of  queens — Ar-Vyvah,  the  Fairy 
of  Bread.  Then,  with  willow  wands,  each  one  set 
forth,  daintily  touching  the  plants  and  the  trees 
and  even  each  other,  to  give  new  life  and  make 
everything  grow,  so  the  world  would  be  happier  and 
better.  Before  they  were  through,  the  buzzing  of 
bees  could  be  heard,  and  the  singing  of  birds,  and 
a  breath  like  sandalwood  was  in  the  air,  while 
butterflies  and  dragonflies  came  forth  one  at  a  time 
while  all  sang  joyously: 

Mortals  all   rejoice, 
The  Love  Spring  is  here.

A   little  volue   by   Charles    Elmer  Jenney,   atract

Search  plaid  silk  and   illustrations  of  a   numbei    ot 
half-tones    of    California's    beautiful    scenery,    be

has  thoroughly  appreciated  our  gianl   sequoias  will 
read  with  interest   tin-  lines  from  "The  .Sequoias:" 
•■Tu   make  our   homes  a   work   of   finished   art, 
Shall  we  rill  out   some  great   gianl   Sequoia's  hearl 
still    may   my    pencil    be    forever   more 
If  it   he  splintered   from   Sequoia's  core! 
shall  vandals  sack   His  temples  and  lay  low 
And   no   more   for   Hi-  altars  strike  a    blow? 
A  vaunt!    grant    to   these   greal    trees   nobler   death: 
The  earthquake  or  some  mighty  tempest's  breath.1' 

Wo   of    the    San    Joaquin    will    on, joy    a    trip    with 
tin-    poet    throughout    the    long,    picturesque    course 
of  tins  river  ami  appreciate   i  lie  parting   words  of 
"  The  San   Joaquin: 
'•Its  course  complete,  afar  outside 
It    hears    the    '-all    of    the    Western    tide — 
That     boundless    sea     where     the    waters    home; 
It    ran    see    the   spray    of   its   high   dashed    foam — 
The   call    that    started    its    Hrst    springs   forth. 
From    the    distant     South    ami    the    distant     North, 
And     clasping     hands     with     its    long    sought     mate. 
At  ebb  it  passes  the  Golden  Gate." 

All  true  Calif  or  nians  can  appreciate  ''The  Sheep 
herder.''  for  the  abject  loneliness  of  one  who  "finds 
each  day  sufficient  to  his  n 1,''  is  made  most  im- 
pressive: 

"In    springtime    on    the    plains    he    vigU    keeps — 
A    pipeless  Pan,  half  merged  among  his  Least. 

Watching     the     stars     at      night     ere     yet     lie     sleeps. 
As    did    of    <dd    the    Shepherds    in    the    Hast. 
" '1  ne  flickering  camp  (ire  dies  to  glowing  coals; 
With   head  on   paws   the  dogs  close  one   tired   eye; 
The    huddled    sheep    lie    packed    in    fleecy    rolls: 
An. I  blanketed  he  sleeps  beneath  the  sky." 

Thi-   ] i    writes   "To   California,"    in    ls4i»,   the 

seventies,   today,   and    these   are    Ins    words   tu    the

verse    as    Mr.   Jenney    has   given   us    in   this   dainty 
volume,   which    no   doubt    was   received    by   many   as 
a    bright    little    valentine    for    the    reeipent    would

1  ^AILING  AND  CAMPING  IN  ALASKA. 
A  number  of  very  excellent  books  have  been 
written  within  recent  years  concerning  Alaska  and 
existing  conditions.  The  most  recent  the  reviewer 
has  in  mind,  is  ''Trailing  and  Camping  in  Alaska," 
by  Addison  M.  Powell.  Mr.  Powell  spent  ten  years 
in  Alaska,  going  by  way  of  Valdez  into  the  Copper 
I'uer  limit  ry,  and  conditions  throughout  Alaska 
t r j : « v  lie  well  understood  by  using  this  locality  as 
a    i ype.      The    author    firings    his    reader    in    close 

touch  with  life  tli  ere.  I  n  fact,  one  almost  feels 
as  lie  rea  Is  that  he  has  viewed  the  seenes  described, 
talked  witli  its  people,  and  taken  part  in  the  peri- 
lous trips,  sii  simply  and  so  humorously  is  much 
of  it  told.  The  type  is  large  ami  the  many  excel 
lent    illustrations   are   ;i    great    addition    to   the    inter-

esting  theme.  Readers  generally  do  not  st.i|»  to 
consider  thai  travel  books,  such  as  Mr.  Powell  has 
given  us  ni  ''Trailing  and  Camping  in  Alaska.'" 
can   only   come  r"  our  hands  as  the   result   of  many 

years    of    hardship    on    the    part    of    the    writer.       True 

enough,  lie  may  have  derived  much  pleasure  as  well 
as  profit,  nevertheless  he  endured  trials  which  we 
would  in  it  or  could  md  undergo.  The  book  pre- 
sents a  fund  of  knowledge  Which  the  reader  can 
possess    iii    a     few    hours    if    lie    reads    as    deliberately 

ami  reservedly  as  ii    was  written.     The  writer  pos- 

sessed    this    fund    only    after   years    of    hard    labor. 

That  the  writer  believes  in  Alaska  is  evident  in 
Ins  dedicating  it  "To  the  boys  who  clung  to  the 
alders  while  others  left,  condemning  a  country  thej 

knew  nothing  about."  and  that  Alaska's  grip  on 
the  writer  is  ;i  firm  one  is  shown  in  these  parting 
lines    of    poet  ry  : 

'  •  We  'II  foi  get  tne  cold  December,  when  the  north- 
winds    played    then    tune. 

Bui    of   green    vales    we'll    remember,    when     'twas    all 

daylight    in    June; 
Aie  I    we  '11    hearken    to   the   calling   of   the   wild    life 

and  pursue 

Where    are    snugs    of    waters     fall  ing    and    the    broad 
leaves    nod    to    you. 

' '  We   have    searched    fur    nature 's    t  rea  sure,    in    the 

sharp    peaks '    upper    air. 
Where    hearts    bent     to     rapid     measure,     mid     bleak 

glaciers     and     snow     glare ; 
A  nd     although     our     footsteps     quicken       tt t 

loot  hers    in     the    vale. 
We   shall   think   of   those,   down-stricken,   who   now 

rest    beside    the    trail." 

THE    CALL   OF    THE    NATION. 

Alter    a    careful    reading    of    "The    Call    of    the 

Nation."    by    lb*.    David    Starr    Jordan.    President    of 

Leland  Sta oford  Junior  University,  one  is  thor- 
oughly Convinced  that  the  crying  need  of  today  is 
t  hat  those  in  whom  the  affairs  of  our  nation  are 
entrusted  (the  voters)  should  not  only  better  under 
stand  the  power  which  is  theirs,  but  that  they 
should  also  use  that  power.  If  right-minded  peo- 
ple,   whose    privilege    it     is    to    cast    the    vote,    would 

put  themselves  in  '-loser  touch  with  the  vital  prob- 
lems of  the   times,   wonderful    results    for   good    would 

be  accomplished,   for   the   forces   of   evil   have   ever 

I n     on     the    alert     grasping     for    everything     that 

tends    toward     gain. 

There  is  little  excuse  in  this  enlightened  age  for 
any  one,  if  he  so  desires,  who  is  not  eon  versa  at 
with    all    that    tends    toward    right    living.      There    are 

many    excellent     1 kS    being     written     by    aide     men. 

who  have  devoted  much  time  and  thought  to  these 
problems  that  mean  every!  hiug  to  humanity  at 
large.       William     Allen     White     has     given     us     that

Ralph  Waldo  Trine.  "The  Laud  of  Living  Men." 
which  is  full  of  goods  things.  Then  we  have  such 
writers  as  Dr.  Eliot  and  Dr.  Van  Dyke  on  subjects 
closely    allied    to    governmental    affairs. 

In  discussing  "Significance  "f  Party"  Dr.  Jordan 
-ays,  ' '  The  matter  which  concerns  us  in  the  elec- 
tion is  not  supremacy  of  one  or  the  other  oi  our 
make-believe  parties,  but  in  the  choice  of  honest

"THE  PIONEER." 

Harry  T.  Fee.  Stockton's  poet,  has  eaught  the 
spirit  of  the  one  who  braves  the  wilderness,  and 
lias  portrayed  this  in  the  February  Sunset  in  a 
strong  hit   of  verse  entitled  "The   Pioneer:" 

Somewhere,    < '    earth,    thj     tangled    woods 
< )  'ertop  the   lonely   plain. 

Siiliicn  here.      ;i  in  id      d  i  in      SOlil  ude-. 

Thy  mists  of  silence   reign. 
Yet     he    shall    come    with    purpose    high 

Deep    in    his    valiaftl    heart, 

Ami    where   thy   purple   vistas   lie 

Shall  stand  the  pulsing  mart. 

Somewhere    primeval    echo    dies 

Across    the    wastes    nnl  rod, 
And   wild  and   far  and   lone  there   lies 

The   wilderness  of   God. 

But    he    shall    come    uncouth    and    plain. 

11  is    burning    soul    adream, 
And    where   thy    virgin    waste   hath    lain 
The    fragrant     farmstead    gleam. 

Tho'    far    and    high    thy    treasures    lie, 

Enwrapt    with    hazard,   still 
Before  thv  face  he  shall  defy 

Thy    might    to    balk    his    will. 
For    he   shall    come    as    morning   light. 

And    earth     rock-ribbed     a  nd     set  e 
Shall    yield    flu-    largess   of    its    might 
To    him,    the    Pioneer.

SAN  FRANCISCO  WINS 

THE    PANAMA    EXPOSITION. 

With  a   pen   made   from   California    gold.    President 

Taft   has  signed  th ingress ional  bill  which  names 

San  Francisco  as  the  place  for  holding  the  Panama- 
Pacific  Internal  ional  Exposition  in  1915,  in  honor 
of  the  completion  of  the  Panama  Canal.  Every- 
thing is  now  in  readiness  to  begin  active1  work  upon 
the  great  exposition,  and  it  is  expected  that  ground 
will    be   broken    within    six    months. 

One    of    the    most    important    tasks    that    will    first 
engage    the   attention    of   the   directors   of    the    fair 

is  the  selection  of  a  site.  Seven  sites  have  already 
been  advanced,  and  the  backers  of  each  are  uring 
the  selection  of  their  particular  location,  but  it 
now    appears   that    the   Golden    Gate    Park    site,    with 


its  linn  acres  and  ocean  frontage,  is  the  choice  of 
a   great    majority   of   the    people   of   San    Francisco. 

Following  tins  will  come  the  selection  of  a  Direc- 
toi  General,  who  will  be  at  the  head  of  the  great 
undertaking.  For  this  honor.  .lames  Rolph,  Theo- 
dore Bell  and  M.  EL  He  Young  have  been  mentioned, 
but  no  one  seems  at  present  willing  to  vouchsafe 
a  n  opinion  as  to  \\  here  the  wreath  of  laurel  will 
fall.  All  admit,  however,  that  as  the  job  is  a  big 
one.  it  will  take  a  big  man  of  broad  ideas  to  suc- 
cessfully   fill    the    position. 

After  these  preliminaries  are  over,  will  come  the 

appointing  and  organizing  of  committees,  and  then 
actual  work  will  proceed  up  to  the  lime  of  opening 
the  exposition.  Not  even  the  dates  for  the  fair  have 
been    decided    upon,    but    il     seems    to    be    the    opinion 


im  those  who  are  in  position  to  know,  thai  the 
exposition  will  open  some  time  in  dune.  1915,  and 
cont inue    to   t he   end    of   that    yea r. 

San     Francisco    is    going    to    make    the    Pan 
Pacific    International    Exposition    the    greatesl    and 

most    beautiful    fair    the    world    has    ever    known.       It 

is  no  exaggeration  to  predict  that,  when  completed, 
the    undertaking    will    represent    an    expend  it  are    of 

$45,000,000     or    $50.000, '.      The    foreign     exhibits 

will  undoubtedly,  from  tentative  indications,  be 
on  a  more  lavish  scale  Mian  those  at  anj  other 
world's  fair,  and  our  own  Government,  as  well  as 
each   separate   state,   will   eclipse  all    former   e 

in     the    way    of    exhibits. 

Time    is   money,   but    it    requires  a    great    deal    of 

time    to    Convince    some    folks    of    that    fact. 


THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


March 


Made-in-California  Week 

to  Boost  Home  Industries 


(By  D.  J.  ALBERGA,  Chairman  of  General  Committee  of  "Made  in  California  Week, 

League  of  California.) 


Home  Industry 


ADE  -  IN  -  CALIFORNIA  WEEK" 
means    talk,     boost,    buy    and     sell 
products    manufactured    in     Califor- 
nia.,-   In   San    Francisco,    it    was    a 
week   when  all   the    stores,   commer- 
cial and  civic  bodies  and  individuals 
boosted  home  industry  through  buy- 
ing, selling  and  using  goods  made  in 
California.       One     of    the     circulars 
which  gave  a  brief  and  specific  ac- 
count of  the  purpose    of    the    week 
read  as  follows: 
MADE  IN  CALIFORNIA  WEEK 
February  20-25,  1911 
SUPPORT  THE  STATE  THAT  SUPPORTS  YOU. 
DURING  THIS  WEEK  AND  AT  ALL  OTHER 
TIMES   BUY 
CALIFORNIA    MADE    GOODS 
AND   INSIST   ON   GETTING   THEM. 

Get  the  Made  in  California  Habit. 
Every  Store  in  City  will  Exhibit  Goods 

Made  in  California. 
Boost  for   California— The  Fair  State. 
Boost  for  San  Francisco — The  Exposition  City. 
REMEMBER   FEBRUARY    20-25. 
HOME   INDUSTRY   LEAGUE   OF    CALIFORNIA. 
The  stores  of  the  city  were  asked  to  show  made- 
in-California  products,   because  it  meant  better  lo- 
cal business  conditions  as  well  as  a  better  general 
business   condition   throughout    the    entire  .State    of 
California.     It  has  made  possible  for  the  future  a 
week  when   every  city  in  the  State  will   set  aside 
this  time  of  the  season  for  a  veritable  harvest  of 
made  and  produced  in  California  products.. 

Through  the  great  support  given  to  the  movement 
by  the  different  stores,  commercial  bodies  and  other 
institutions  in  distributing  over  500,000  circulars 
and  other  descriptive  data,  it  made  it  possible  to 
reach  thousands  of  people  that  could  never  have 
been  notified  of  the  movement.  Through  the  efforts 
and  suggestions  brought  about  by  this  "Made-in- 
California  Week,"  was  realized  a  successful  fash- 
ion season  that  was  arranged  for  by  the  retailers 
who  took  advantage  of  the  many  strangers  in  the 
city  and  made  a  spring  opening  of  their  many  new 
lines.  Through  the  publicity,  retailers  co-operated 
with  the  Home  Industry  League  and  submitted 
many  lines  of  copy  that  contained  advertisements 
giving  publicity  to  the  week  and  the  trade-mark 
of  the  League  with  the  magical  words  "Made-in- 
California."  . 

Inspired  by  competitive  efforts,  stores  vied  with 
one  annother  in  making  window  displays,  with  the 
result  that  thousands  and  thousands  of  dollars  were 
spent  in  drawing  attraction  toward  the  recognition 
of  California  products.  Thirty-eight  beautifully 
carved  and  artistic  silver  loving  cups  were  given 
for  the  best  displays  of  California  products  in  the 
different  districts  of  the  city,  of  which  there  were 
twelve,  for  the  stores  making  the  most  original 
and  unique  display  characterizing  California  prod- 
ucts. The  cards  which  were  displayed  in  the  win- 
dows said  all  goods  displayed  must  be  made  in  Cal- 
ifornia to  win  a  prize.  The  store  that  had  the 
best  display  was  given  the  $250  trophy  or  shield. 
Besides  this,  valuable  merchandise  prizes  were 
given  for  the  next  fifteen  best  displays  in  every 
district,  making  a  sum  total  of  some  270  prizes  in 
all.  The  window  dresser  that  made  the  best  dis- 
play received  a  special  prize  presented  by  the 
president  and  vice-president  of  the  League,  F.  C. 
Parker  and  A.  C.  Rulofson. 

The  most  instructive  and  educational  campaign 
of  the  week  was  brought  about  in  the  securing  of 
ninety-four  improvement  clubs  in  the  city,  with  the 
rest  of  the  commercial  and  civic  bodies,  for  a 
greater  recognition  of  the  week's  efforts  in  the  out- 
lying districts  in  San  Francisco.  This  work  was 
started  three  months  before  February  20th  and  con- 
tinued up  to  and  through  that  time.  This  campaign 
was  managed  through  a  series  of  lectures  and  en- 
tertainments secured  in  the  co-operation  of  more 
than  50,000  men  and  women  who  have  been  perma- 
nently won  over  to  the  cause  of  home  industry, 
and  proved  that  it  is  the  rank  and  file  of  the  State 
in  a  campaign  of  this  kind  that  can  bring  about 
the  greatest  good  in  the  purchasing  of  made-in-Cal- 
ifornia  products.  One  of  the  most  difficult  features 
was  the  handling  of  the  different  improvement  clubs 
and  the  addressing  of  same,  divided  as  they  were 
into  twelve  districts.  But  each  district  was  given 
a  chairman  and  to  him  much  of  the  success  was 
due. 

The  one  feature  of  this  campaign  that  perhaps 
created  a  greater  interest  than  any  other,  was  the 


strenuous  efforts  and  talks  made  by  the  various 
manufacturers  themselves,  who  took  advantage  of 
this  opportunity  to  get  close  to  the  people  who  buy 
and  sell  their  goods.  It  clearly  manifested  that  per- 
sonal contact  with  the  purchasing  public  is  one  of 
the  solutions  to  teach  the  people  the  absolute  ne- 
cessity of  home  industry,  perhaps  adding  more  than 
anything  else  to  bring  about  this  recognition  of 
California  commodities.  The  presence  of  profes- 
sional men,  such  as  attorneys  and  doctors,  who  ad- 
dressed these  clubs,  illustrated  the  seriousness  of 
the  need  to  develop  the  latent  industries  of  our 
State  and  increase  the  population. 

In  the  entertainment  of  the  1500  delegates  to  the 
Western  Fruit  Jobbers'  Association,  that  was  made 
possible  through  the  "Made-in-California  Week," 
and  added  another  entertaining  feature  of  the  occa- 
sion, was  the  great  result  brought  about  by  teach- 
ing these  men  the  value  of  buying  California  made 
products,  as  at  the  very  lowest  estimate  it  has  been 
figured  that  these  men  buy  at  least  $100,000,000 
worth  of  fruit  annually  from  California.  They 
were  entertained  by  rides  around  the  bay  provided 
them  by  the  League,  through  the  courtesy  of  the 
Southern  Pacific  Company;  they  were  given  an  au- 


D.  J.  ALBERGA 


tomobile  ride  through  the  park  and  all  the  pictur- 
esque driveways  throughout  the  country  and  city, 
and  were  made  comfortable  by  eating  at  all  times 
made-in- California  products  in  the  hotels  and  res- 
taurants, besides  being  given  a  car  ride  to  the 
beach  and  Cliff  House  by  the  United  Railroads.  The 
Hotel  Men's  Association  of  San  Francisco  went 
into  the  work  with  good  will  and  provided  all  man- 
ner of  entertainment  for  the  guests  as  well  as  spe- 
cial features  for  the  good  of  the  "Made-in-Califor- 
nia Week ' '  itself. 

On  Washington 's  birthday,  February  22nd,  the 
hotels  in  the  city  competed  for  a  $150  trophy  for 
the  best  menu  card  made  up  entirely  in  all  its  de- 
tail of  California  products,  each  hotel  identifying 
the  work  with  the  ' '  Made-in-California  Week ' ' 
diamond  upon  the  menu,  to  make  it  eligible  for 
competition.  This  brought  about  some  of  the  most 
original  and  unique  displays,  poetical  compositions 
and  original  figures  of  speech  made  in  Cali- 
fornia products.  The  Palace  Hotel  gave  a  mag- 
nificent luncheon,  with  appropriate  decorations  and 
entertainment,  for  the  good  of  the  week  and  the 
members  of  the  Home  Industry  League.  Besides 
this,  there  were  many  features  added,  too  numerous 
to  mention,  that  went  to  make  up  the  success  of 
the  Home  Industry  movement.  The  women's  set- 
tlements, mothers'  and  women's  clubs  gave  lunch- 


eons at  which  nothing  was  used  but  made-in-Cali- 
fornia  products,  provided  them  by  the  different 
manufacturers  of  the  State.  This  teaching  of 
women  the  use  of  California  products  has  been  the 
most  effectual  educational  campaign  that  has  been 
instituted  by  the  home  industry  movement.  One 
fact  illustrated  was  the  necessity  of  printing  di- 
rectories and  volumes  o_  literature  showing  just 
what  is  made  in  California,  to  make  the  women 
acquainted  with  the  fact,  particularly  with  food 
products  that  are  used  in  the  pantry.  It  proved 
conclusively  that  the  women,  who  are  the  pur- 
chasers of  household  necessities  and  food  products, 
are  those  who  will  make  permanent,  and  build  the 
founuation  ~or,  the  goods  made  in  California. 

The  co-operation  of  over  700  retail  grocers  in 
the  city,  who  were  given  a  banquet  and  smoker 
during  the  week,  was~  one  of  the  instructive  fea- 
tures that  increased  the  demand  for  California  food 
products  more  than  any  other  combination  of  forces 
as  represented  by  a  single  retail  industry.  The 
measure  of  co-operation  was  perhaps  more  forcibly 
illustrated  when,  at  one  of  the  weekly  luncheons 
during  the  week,  a  representative  of  one  of  the 
largest  milling  concerns  on  the  coast  got  up  and 
said  that  since  the  inception  of  the  Home  Industry 
movement  and  the  co-operation  of  the  retail  gro- 
cers, they  had  doubled  their  output,  and  he  thanked 
the  League  for  making  it  possible  for  this  great 
improvement  in  the  local  market. 

Perhaps  of  all  the  work  that  has  been  accom- 
plished— and  means  a  permanent  educational 
source  for  the  future  citizens  of  our  State  in  teach- 
ing them  to  buy  California  products — was  the 
writing  of  a  composition  on  home  industry  by 
thirty-two  schools  of  the  eighth  grade  pupils  and 
sixteen  high  schools  for  a  cash  prize  of  $100  for 
the  best  composition  at  both  of  those  schools;  and 
a  second  prize  of  valuable  merchandise  suitable  for 
either  boy  or  girl.  This  naturally  necessitated  the 
preparing  of  ten  questions  to  be  asked  of  the  pupils 
and  which  were  pertinent  to  their  school  work,  to 
their  home  life,  and  to  their  father's  business,  re- 
sulting, as  it  would,  in  a  greater  increase  of  Cali- 
fornia products. 

The  next  event  that  secured  good  results  and  has 
become  a  prominent  feature  in  the  schools,  was  the 
visit  of  all  the  school  children  to  the  factories  that 
held  open  house.  In  addition  to  this,  lectures  dur- 
.ing  the  week  and  previously  were  given  in  all  of 
the  schools  on  the  subject  of  Home  Industry,  which 
also  will  become  one  of  the  prominent  features  in 
establishing  the  idea  of  patronizing  and  developing 
California  industries.  The  supertintendent  of 
schools,  Alfred  Roncovieri,  and  H,  G.  Vaughn  were 
instrumental  in  this  work  and  besides  helping  the 
success  of  same,  suggested  that  a  primer  of  simple 
construction  be  compiled  and  submitted  to  all  of  the 
schools   on   the   natural   resources   of   the   State. 

Last,  but  not  least,  was  the  hearty  co-operation  of 
the  Native  Sons,  many  or  the  Parlors  holding  open 
house  during  the  week  and  entertaining  the  fruit 
jobbers  and  other  members  of  the  League.  The 
most  active  in  this  work  were  the  following  who 
made  up  a  general  sub-committee  and  upon  whom 
depended  the  great  success  that  ended  one  of  the 
most  interesting  events  ever  held  in  the  State  of 
California:  D.  Alberga  (chairman),  J.  C.  Kortick, 
C.  H.  Workman,  W.  H.  Laurence,  H.  E.  Holmes, 
Walter  Degen,  H.  M.  Hyman,  Oscar  Boldeman, 
August  Lang,  R.  L.  Dunn,  A.  Patrick,  Dr.  C,  V. 
Cross,  Chester  Meyers,  Sam  Samter,  P.  G.  Betts, 
F.   B.   Connolly. 

The  idea  of  the  made-in-California  week  is  to 
foster  the  Home  Industry  movement  and  make  it  a 
perament  benefit  to  the  State.  Such  efforts  should 
not  be  confined  alone  to  the  big  cities,  but  should 
prevail  throughout  the  entire  State  of  California, 
where  a  greater  recognition  of  Home  Industry  should 
be  brought  about  to  develop  the  great  producing 
and  manufacturing  interests  of  this  State.  Every 
.  locality  has  its  industries,  and  these,  together  with 
the  other  industries  of  the  State,  should  be  fostered 
and  protected  by  our  people  through  the  purchase 
of    their    products.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


Labor  for  Homeless  Children — Right  Side  of  Life's  Account 


(BY  LAURA  J.  FRAKES.  GRAND  SECRETARY,  N.D.G.W.) 


OULD  3T0TJ  LIKE  TO  GO  WITH  ME 
to  Bee  a  new  babyf  tts'a  away  ou1 
tliis  side  of  nowhere,  and  m  is  raining 
very  hard,"  said  Emma  W.  Lillie, 
secretary    of    the    N.   S.    »;.    W.    and 

N.  D.  G.  W.  Children's  Ag y,  and 

fairy  god  mother  t «>  homeless  waifs. 
"  Would  I  like  to  go  '  Well,  l  guess 
I  would;  and  grateful,  too,  for  the 
opporl  unity, ' '   said   the   writer. 

A  tier      :i       long      joimie\       I  li  rough 

wind,  and  rain,  and  mud,  we  reached 
1    a    high    hill,    al    the    top    of    which    was 

situated  a  neal  looking  little  cottage.  In  tins  cot- 
tage lived  t he  dear  woman  whoso  kind,  motherly 
heart  prompted  her  to  take  anil  rare  for  tins  home- 
leas  one  until  such  time  as  Mrs.  Lillie  could  find 
a  suitable  home  for  it.  Another  effort,  and  we 
were    at     the     tup    of    the     hill. 

What  a  sweel  little  darling  met  our  gaze — sky- 
blue  eyes,  rosy  cheeks  and  dimpled  chin— a  really, 
truly,  live  doll — a  doll  that  could  open  and  shut  its 
eyes,  move  its  tiny  hands  ami  little  pink  toes; 
Could  coo,  and  smile,  just  such  a  sweet  smile  as  I 
fancy  angels  smile.  I  venture  to  say  it  could  cry, 
too,  but  not  on  this  day,  oh,  no!  It  was  on  exhibi- 
tion  now,  and  must  be  good.  1  wonder  if  it  knew.' 
We  each,  in  turn,  held  this  wee  bit  of  humanity 
in  our  arms  and  pressed  it  close  to  our  hearts,  won- 
dering how  anyone,  much  less  a  mother,  could  aban- 
don anything  so  sweet,  so  confiding,  and  so  help- 
less. 

Alter  satisfying  herself  that  the  baby  was  in 
every  way  worthy  the  home  into  which  it  was 
about  to  be  placed,  Mrs.  Lillie  gave  the  wee  one 
a  good-by  squeeze  and  a  kiss,  thanked  the  woman 
for  the  good  care  she  had  given  the  baby,  ami 
once  more  we  were  out  in  the  cold,  the  rain,  the 
wind,  and  the  mud,  but  we  felt  it  not,  for  our 
hearts  were  filled  with  a  warmth,  a  joy,  a  happi- 
ness, that  came  with  the  knowledge  that  we  were 
instrumental  in  placing  this  dear  one  in  a  happy 
home — a  home  where  it  would  be  reared  in  kind- 
ness and  love,  with  every  comfort  that  a  fond  heart 
Could  give.  Some  time,  dear  sisters  and  brothers, 
I'll  write  and  tell  you  how  this  little  baby  girl  is 
thriving   under  the   tender  care  of  its  new  mother. 

While  in  the  N.S.G.W.  and  N.D.G.W.  Chil- 
dren 's  Agency 's  office  in  San  Francisco  the  other 
day.  it  was  mv  privilege  to  read  some  of  the  letters 
received  by  the  secretary  from  those  who  had 
opened  their  hearts  and  homes  to  these  little  un- 
fort  ti  nates.  These  letters  so  interested  me,  that 
with  Mrs.  Lillies's  permission  I  quote  a  few  para- 
graphs for  your  perusal  and  benefit:

"My  Dear  Mrs.  Lillie:  I  want  to  tell 
you  how  grateful  we  are  for  the  dear  little 
fellow  you  brought  to  us.  We  want  to  tell 
you  that  he  has  wron  our  hearts  completely. 
You  do  not  know  what  a  pleasure  it  is  to 
me  to  hear  his  childisii  prattle,  and  to  see 
his  innocent  little  ways.  O,  the  sweet  sim- 
plicity of  a  child!  I  realized  it  more  the 
night  the  little  fellow  came  to  us,  than 
at  any  time  before  in  my  life.  When  I 
saw  the  little  white-robed  figure  kneeling 
by  his  bed,  his  tiny  hands  clasped  and  his 
innocent  little  face  lifted  toward  heaven, 
and  heard  his  sweet  voice  in  prayer — a 
stranger  in  a  strange  home,  among  strange 


j pie — I    thought    of    the    motliei      il     she 

deserves  to  be  called  by  that,  holy  name — 

who    had    abandoned    tins   sweel    i se   of 

humanity,  Leaving  another  mot  her  to  hear 
that  childish  prayer;  another  mother  to  put 
that  dear  little  fellow  to  bed;  another 
mother  to  kiss  him  good  night.  And  yet, 
( rod    knows   best 

Who  can  doubt,  after  reading  i  he  above  extracts, 
that  tin-  grandest  tning  the  Native  Sons  and  Native 
Daughters   have  ever  undertaken   is  the   placing  of 

I icless    children    in    childless    homes.      Tins    is    done 

jointly,  through  what  is  known  as  the  Children's 
Agency.     I  ';i  Bl   Grand   Presidenl    Emma   W.  Lillie   i 

I  he  secretary  and  good  angel  who  takes  these  little 
orphans — or,  worse  yet,  homeless  waifs — from  the 
various  institutions  and  finds  a  good  home  for  each 
one,  placing  a  Protestant  child  in  a  Protestant 
home,  a  Catholic  child  in  a  Catholic  home,  and  a 
Jewish    child    in   a   Jewish   home.      All   this    is    done 

for   what   is  considered  the  best  good  of   tl MM. 

If  one  could  first  see  these  half-starved,  sickly  little 
babies  as  they  are  taken  from  institutions  and 
plac  in  a  good  home,  and  then  in  about  six 
months  see  them  again,  with  bright,  smiling  faces, 
rounded,  rosy  cheeks  and  musical  laughter,  how 
happy  he  would  be.  He  would  feel  like  blessing 
the  one  who  started  this  wonderful  work. 

How  there  little  ones  do  grow,  when  they  get 
into  a  good  home  and  leceive  the  tender  care  of 
a  loving  mother,  good,  pure  food,  etc.,  but,  best 
of  all,  a  loving  mother's  fond  embrace  and  sweet. 
good-night  kiss!  No  wonder  the  work  is  progress- 
ing, and  why  not?  It  is  certainly  a  worthy  cause. 
There  have  been  placed  this  year  about  eighteen 
bau.es,  and  not  a  Dome  which  they  have  entered 
would  allow  them  to  depart,  as  the  let  t  ers  above 
quoted  show.  This  is  a  work  that,  once  under- 
stood, will  meet  with  the  approval  of  everyone. 
Low  then  must  it  appeal  to  the  loving  heart  of 
our  Heavenly  Father,  Whose  only  son  died  that  we 
might  be  saved,  and  Whose  son  said:  "Suffer 
little  cn.idren  to  come  unto  me,  for  of  such  is  the 
Kingdom    of   Heaven." 

Let  us  tell  about  this  good  work  to  everyone. 
V  e  want  the  outside  world  to  know  about  it — to 
know  what  we  are  doing;  what  a  grand  and  glorious 
work  is  being  done  by  our  two  Orders.  In  after 
years  these  same  little  unfortunates  will  have 
grown  to  be  men  and  women,  perhaps  honored  mem- 
bers of  our  Orders,  each  with  gratitude  in  his  or 
her  heart,  and  will  point  to  the  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  as  the  ones  to  whom  they  owe 
their  happy  homes,  etc.  How  often,  in  the  long 
journey  down  the  walk  of  life,  will  they  say,  "God 
bless  those  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters; 
they  builded  better  than  they  knew."  And  then 
we.  who  supported  this  splendid  cause,  shall  have 
been    rewarded. 


With  Time  and  Study,  One  Can  Improve  His  or  Her  Education 


(By    ELIZA    D.    KEITH,    Past    Grand    President,    N.D.G.W.) 


N  MANY  A  SUBORDINATE  PAR- 
lor  there  are  earnest  women  eager 
to  improve  their  minds.  Some  of 
them  have  not  had  the  advantage 
of  much  elementary  schooling,  and 
they  realize  their  deficiencies  often 
in  a  hopeless  sort  of  way  and  con- 
tent themselves  with  wishing  that 
their  opportunities  had  been  greater. 
( others  are  striving  to  make  the 
best  of  the  situation;  they  belong  to 
reading  clubs  and  study  by  them- 
selves in  a  desultory  sort  ot  way,  not  making  much 
progress,  and  not  realizing  what  is  the  impediment. 
In  brief,  it  may  be  summed  up  in  the  statement  that 
they  do  not  know  their  own  language;  that  they 
cannot  extract  the  meaning  of  a  sentence,  much 
less  of  a  paragraph,  because  they  have  no  idea  of 
sentence  structure — of  the  main  proposition  and  the 
Subordinate  thought,  hence  their  confusion  of  ideas. 
Now.  many  of  such  eager  women  have  asked  me 
from  time  to  time  if  they  could  study  grammar  by 
themselves,  or  in  a  congenial  group  of  friends.  To 
all  such  the  reply  has  been,  "Certainly,  but  you 
must  take  time  and  study  with  some  system."  In 
the  following  list  I  have  set  forth  the  leading  tea 
tures  of  different  books  which  have  helped  me,  and 
which  will  give  up  their  thought  to  the  student, 
with  comparatively  little  effort  on  her  part.  And 
so    I    have   asked    the    Editor   of   our  official    organ, 


The  Grizzly  Bear,  to  let  this  brief  article  be  my 
reply  to  the  many  other  queries  which  I  have  re- 
ceived  on   these   subjects: 

"The  Mother  Tongue,"  in  two  books,  is  an  ele- 
mentary grammar  with  lessons  in  composition  by 
George  Lyman  Kittredge  and  Sarah  Louise  Arnold, 
and  will  prove  of  especial  benefit  to  those  teachers 
who  are  using  the  language  lessons  of  the  Califor- 
nia State  Series.  The  introduction  explains  in  sim- 
ple language  certain  general  conceptions  too  often 
ignored  in  the  study  of  grammar:  The  nature  of 
language,  its  relation  to  thought  and  to  style,  the 
processes  which  affect  its  growth  and  decay,  the 
province  of  grammar,  and  the  relation  of  grammar 
to  usage.  The  appendix  contains  a  list  of  irregular 
verbs  and  other  material  for  reference.  The  illus- 
trative sentences  throughout  the  book  are  many  iu 
number,  clear  in  meaning,  and  appropriate  to  the 
instance  in  which  they  are  employed. 

"Manual  of  Composition  ami  Rhetoric,"  by 
John  Hayes  Gardiner,  George  Lyman  Kittredge  and 
Sarah  Louise  Arnold,  is  a  book  that  will  give  effec- 
tive assistance  to  a  student  already  in  possession 
of  the  rudiments  of  grammar,  and  desirous  of  pur- 
suing those  studies  after  school  days  are  ended. 
The  chapter  "Argument,"  giving  a  full  treatment 
of  briefs,  with  examples  and  exercises,  will  give 
valuable  information  and  practical  direction  to 
young  speakers,  ami  those  determined  to  engage  in 
debate.      Every   Native  Son,  and  indeed  even  every 


Native  Daughter,  who  ever  rises  on  the  Parlor  floor 
to  engage  in  debate  over  a  proposition  should  read 
this  chapter.  This  "Manual  of  Composition  and 
Rhetoric ' '  emphasizes  and  exemplifies  the  connec- 
tion between  composition  and  literature,  and  shows 
how  reading   helps  composition. 

Reed  and  Kellogg 's  "  Higher  Lessons  in  English," 
is  a  work  on  English  grammar  and  composition  in 
which  the  science  of  the  language  is  made  tribu- 
tary to  the  art  of  expression.  It  is  the  plan  of  this 
work  to  trace  with  easy  steps  the  natural  develop- 
ment; to  consider  the  leading  facts  first  and  then 
descend  to  details.  Through  the  study  of  the 
sentence,  there  is  gained  not  only  an  intelligent 
knowledge  of  the  parts  of  speech,  and  a  correct  use 
of  grammatical  forms,  but  also  a  practical  applica- 
tion of  the  laws  of  discourse  iu  general.  This 
study  of  the  logical  analysis  of  the  sentence  will 
greatly  aid  in  the  study  and  acquisition  of  a  foreign 
language.  Many  attempt  to  study  a  foreign  lan- 
guage while  without  knowledge  of  the  grammar 
of  their  mother  tongue,  and  the  result  is  confu- 
sion and  failure.  These  lessons  teach  the  use  of 
the  sentence,  and  as  a  means  of  mental  discipline, 
nothing  can  compare  with  training  in  the  logical 
analysis   of   the   sentence.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR

POLITICS  APPEARS  TO  COME  BEFORE  HOME  INTERESTS 


Press  reports  from  the  Legislature  at  Sacramento 
indicate  that  there  will  be  no  favorable  action  upon 
bills  looking  to  the  segregation  of  Japanese, 
Chinese,  Hindus  and  whites  in  the  public  schools 
of  the  State.  -Several  reasons  are  set  up  as  to  why 
the  State  Legislature  will  not  prohibit  the  atten- 
dance of  JAPANESE  MEN  at  the  same  public 
schools  with  WHITE  GIRLS,  but  not  one  of  those 
reasons  is  sufficient  to  excuse  the  inactivity  of  the 
legislators  in  this  all-important  matter. 

We  are  constantly  reminded  that  the  Japanese 
government  is  closely  restricting  immigration  to 
this  country.  This  may  be  so,  but  no  one  can 
deny  the  fact  that  the  Japanese  situation  is  daily 
becoming  more  serious  in  California.  We  want 
laws  to  regulate  the  Japanese  who  are  now  here, 
as  well  as  regulations  prohibiting  any  more  from 
coming.  Two  years  ago  the  people  of  California 
were  promised  relief  from  the  Japanese  evil,  pro- 
viding the  Legislature  would  pass  no  anti-Japanese 
laws.  No  such  laws  were  enacted,  and  as  a  result 
the  past  two  years  have  seen  the  Japanese  more 
active  in  our  social  and  commercial  life  than  ever 
before. 

Nearly  all  our  common  ills  are  chargeable  to  the 
''big  interests,"  and  there  is  plenty  of  room  for 
suspicion  that  these  same  "big  interests''  are  re- 
sponsible for  the  non-passage  by  our  Legislature 
of  sane  and  much-neeaed  measures  regulating  the 
existence  of  Japanese  in  our  midst.  It  does  seem 
strange,  however,  that  while  the  ' '  big  interests ' ' 
have  been  unmercifully  lambasted  by  the  powers 
that  be  as  regards  all  ot.ier  questions  affecting  the 
public  welfare,  they  have  been  able  to  ward  off 
any  legislation  that  might  tend  to  bring  about  the 
displeasure  of  the  Japanese.  This  is  accountable 
for  in  the  fact  that  the  unrestricted  invasion  of  the 
Japanese — in  our  lands,  our  homes,  our  schools,  and 
even  in  our  families  through  marriage — means  mil- 


lions of  dollars  annually  to  the  "big  interests." 

So,  until  the  Japanese  evil  is  brought  directly 
home  to  some  one  high  and  mighty  in  the  State 
Government,  the  mothers  and  fathers  of  Califor- 
nia must  sit  idly  by  and  see  the  future  of  their 
daughters  menaced  by  the  danger  encountered 
through  JAPANESE  MEN  attending  schools  with 
WHITE  GIRLS.  It  is,  indeed,  a  crying  shame,  but 
as  the  question  is  one  that  affects  the  HOMES  and 
not  the  POLITICS  of  the  State,  we  can  hope  for  no 
relief  until  the  question  is  made  a  political  issue 
and  settled  at  the  ballot-box. 

One  ray  of  hope  alone  appears  to  break  through 
the  Japanese  school-evil  cloud — the  granting  of  the 
franchise  to  women.  A  great  majority  of  women 
believe  in  the  Home,  and  so  believing,  they  recog- 
nize the  evils  attending  the  association  of  Japan- 
ese men  with  white  girls  in  our  public  schools,  and 
when  they  wield  the  ballot  they  can,  we  think, 
be  depended  upon  to  right  this  permitted — and, 
through  inaction,  encouraged — wrong.  For  this  rea- 
son alone,  then,  if  for  no  other,  every  home-loving 
man  who  has  the  welfare  of  the  schoolgirls  of  Cali- 
fornia at  heart,  should  be  in  favor  of,  and  vote  for 
the  constitutional  amendment  which  will  permit 
women   to    vote. 

Through  their  failure  to  regulate  the  Japanese 
school  evil,  our  representatives  in  the  present  and 
last  State  Legislature  have  demonstrated  that  they 
either  are  not  surficinetly  acquainted  with  the  needs 
of  the  Home  to  recognize  the  necessity  for  prompt 
and  decisive  action  in  the  premises,  or  that,  if  they 
do  recognize  the  necessity  for  such  action,  tuey  have 
not  the  backbone  to  protect  the  Home  at  the  ex- 
pense of  Politics. 

All  this  talk  of  war  with  Japan,  should  such 
school  regulation  be  passed,  is  bosh.  There  is  not 
a  man  in  the  Legislature  who  would  be  swerved 
from  doing  his  duty  to   his  Home  through  talk  of 


war  with  Japan  or  any  other  country.  But  the 
talk  of  Political  War!  That's  what  freezes  the 
marrow  in  the  legislators'  backbones,  and  when 
they  hear  the  bugle  call  of  Polities  they  forget 
duty  to  Home,  fling  themselves  at  the  feet  of  the 
political  powers  that  be  ana  vow  allegiance  to  the 
wishes  of  the  high  and  mighty.  Two  years  ago, 
the  political  bugle  call  sounded  away  back  in  the 
national  capital,  but  the  faithful  in  the  California 
Legislature  heard  it,  and  they  DID  NOT  pass  any 
necessary  Japanese  legislation.  The  political  bugle 
is  again  sounding,  we  know  not  from  whence — it 
may  be  from  away  back  in  Oyster  Bay,  or  perhaps 
from  the  Japanese  legation  in  San  Francisco — but 
certain  it  is  that  it's  sounding,  for  the  faithful  in 
the  California  Legislature  have  again  heard  its 
alarming  notes,  and  there  WILL  NOT  be  any  nec- 
essary Japanese  legislation  enacted  this  session. 

What  the  parents  of  California  want  is  a  Legis- 
lature made  up  largely  of  men  who  can  be  depended 
upon  to  work  for  the  passage  of  laws  that  will 
throw  every  protection  around  the  Home  and  the 
Schoolgirl.  Men  who,  while  striving  to  better  the 
political  conditions  of  the  State — and  thereby  in- 
creasing the  welfare  of  The  People — are  not  afraid 
to  openly  battle  for  the  Home,  and  who  will  not 
subordinate  to  any  political  ism  the  fullest  pro- 
tection of  that  Home  and  our  Daughters.  The  pres- 
ent Legislature  is  unquestionably  the  best  that  Cal- 
ifornia has  ever  had,  and  is  passing  laws  that  are 
for  the  best  interests  of  the  people  of  the  State, 
not  the  least  of  which  is  the  recall.  But  in  labor- 
ing to  cleanse  the  State  of  recognized  political  evils, 
the  Legislature  iias  faileu  to  attempt  to  check  the 
greatest  recognized  social  evil  in  the  State  today — 
the  evil  which  countenances  the  attendance  of 
JAPANESE  MEN  at  publie  schools  with  WHITE 
GIRLS.  Perhaps  the  recall,  also,  will  help  us  in  our 
hour  of  need. 


In  the  selection  of  San  Francisco  as  the  place  for 
holding  the  1915  Panama-Pacific  Exposition,  the 
whole  State  of  California  won  a  great  victory,  and 
the  recognition  by  Congress  of  the  claims  of  this 
Paradise  of  the  West  is  the  greatest  advertisement 
the  State  has  ever  received.  Every  section  of  the 
State  was  behind  S'an  Francisco  in  the  contest,  and 
the  result  shows  what  united  effort  can  do  toward 
winning    recognition. 

It  is  even  more  important  now,  however,  that 
the  whole  State  unite  in  making  the  fair  a  record- 
breaking  success.  San  Francisco  asks  and  needs 
the  assistance  of  every  section  of  the  State,  as  well 
as  of  every  loyal  Californian,  to  the  end  that  the 
Panama-Pacific  Exposition  will  be  in  a  class  by  it- 
self, as  compared  with  other  world's  fairs. 

There  is  not  a  city  or  county  in  the  State  but 
what  will  derive  great  benefit  from  this  exposition. 
It  will  bring  thousands  of  people  here,  and  they  will 
avail  themselves  of  an  opportunity  to  look  the 
State  over  carefully,  many  with  a  view  to  perma- 
nent settlement.  San  Francisco  will  benefit,  to  be 
sure,  but  in  comparison  with  her  necessary  mon- 
etary outlay,  that  benefit  will  be  but  little  to  what 
will  be  derived  by  Los  Angeles,  Fresno,  Alameda, 
Sacramento  and  all  other  counties  of  the  State. 

San  Francisco  is  the  exposition  city,  but  the  ex- 
position is  California's.  That's  the  way  to  look 
at  it,  and  from  that  viewpoint  we  should  give  the 
best  that  is  in  us  for  the  suceess  of  the  gigantic 
undertaking.

Through  the  efforts  of  the  Richmond  Industrial 
Commission,  a  bill  has  been  introduced  in  the  Legis- 
lature, appropriating  three  hundred  thousand  dol- 
lars, to  be  expended  under  the  direction  of  the  State 
Board  of  Examiners,  for  the  purpose  of  advertising 
the  resources  of  the  State  of  California  and  calling 
attention  to  its  agricultural,  horticultural  and  in- 
dustrial advantages,  one-half  of  said  sum  to  be  ex- 
pended during  the  fiscal  year  commencing  July  1, 
1911,  and  the  remaining  one-half  to  be  expended 
during  the  fiscal  year  commencing  July  1,  1912. 

The  idea  of  the  measure  is  to  provide  funds  to 
carry  on  a  systematic  advertising  campaign  in  be- 
half of  the  whole  State.  All  commercial  and  im- 
provement bodies  are  asked  to  lend  their  support 
to  secure  passage  of  the  bill.     Invaluable  free  ad- 


vertising of  the  State  was  secured  during  the 
Panama-Pacific  Exposition  campaign,  and  it  is  be- 
lieved the  appropriation  asked  for  can  be  so  util- 
ized, in  a  sort  of  follow-up  advertising  campaign, 
as  to  bring  thousands  of  people  to  California,  As 
the  Industrial  Commission  says:  "We  do  not  want 
to  wait  until  1915  before  we  entertain  the  big 
crowd;  they  are  thinking  of  us  now — let's  get  them 
started,  this  way  and  enjoy  prosperity  from  this 
time   on." 

Upon  its  face,  the  proposition  is  a  good  one  and 
should  receive  the  hearty  support  of  everyone  inter- 
ested in  the  State's  development,  for  all  must  re- 
alize the  necessity  of  getting  many  thousand  addi- 
tional settlers  in  California  before  the  State  can 
be  fully  developed.  If  the  appropriation  be  made, 
however,  it  should  be  distinctly  provided  that  the 
money  is  to  be  spent  in  advertising  the  whole  State 
of  California,  and  not  any  particular  section 
thereof. 

A  New  Yorker,  who  has  strayed  away  from  home, 
wrote  to  his  town  paper  from  Martinez,  this  State, 
under  the  date  of  January  11,  1911,  as  follows: 
"A    great    many   people    from   the    East 
come   out   here   to   live   on   account   of   the 
sunshine    and    roses,    but    believe    me    they 
pay   for   their   sunshine    and    roses.      There 
are  only  two  classes  of  people  in  California 
that   are   making   money.      One   is   the   real 
estate  shark  and  the  other  is  the  Jap.  Po- 
tatoes here  are  worth  $3  a  bushel,  eggs  50 
cents  a  dozen,  bacon  40  cents  a  pound,  and 
all  other  foodstuffs  accordingly.     No  doubt 
at  this  season  of  the  year  back  in  North- 
ern  New   York,    where   the    snow   is   piling 
up  and  zero  weather  is  prevalent,  a  great 
many  wish  they  were  in   sunny   California 
among   blooming    roses    and    singing    birds, 
but  let  me  tell  you  something — YOU  ARE 
ALL    RIGHT   JUST   WHERE   YOU   ARE. 
"FRANK  H.  MITCHELL." 
Right    you    are,    Mr.    Mitchell.      Any   person    who 
would   be   influenced  by  what  you   say  is   all   right 
just  where  he  is.     Certainly  he  wouldn  't  be  all  right 
in    California,    and    California      doesn't      want    him 
numbered  among  its  citizens,  any  more  than  it  de- 
sires your  objectionable  presence. 


Bascom  A.  Stephens  is  the  name  of  a  Los  Angeles 
individual  who  has  been  endeavoring  for  some  time 
past  to  bring  about  a  division  of  the  State  of  Cali- 
fornia, and  he  is  still  at  it.  And  there  are  a  few 
papers  in  the  southern  part  of  the  State  that, 
judging  from  the  space  they  devote  to  the  divider's 
arguments,  believe  he  is  the  Moses  come  to  lead 
the  children  of  Southern  California  out  of  the  one- 
state-government  wilderness,  and  they  want  to  be 
in   the   front   ranks. 

Stevens'  state-division  arguments  have  about  as 
much  merit  as  a  sieve  has  water,  but  if  persistency 
counts  for  anything  he  should  be  rewarded.  State 
division,  according  to  his  freely-dispensed  litera- 
ture, is  the  cure-all  for  the  people's  grievances,  no 
matter  from  what  cause  they  arise.

Many  papers  throughout  the  State  have  been 
crediting  Hiram  Johnson  with  being  the  first  Na- 
tive Son  to  be  elected  Governor  of  California. 

What's  the  matter  with  former  Governor  George 
C.  Pardee  of  Oakland?  He  is  an  old-time  member 
of  the  Order  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
and,  incidentally,  was  the  best  Governor  the  State 

had  ever  had.

San  Francisco  should  follow  the  course  of  the 
Standard  Oil  Company — which  sued  Hampton's 
Magazine  for  libel  for  gross  misstatements — and 
bring  suit  for  libel  against  Collier's  Weekly,  for 
a  recent  issue  of  that  publication  had  as  a  frontis- 
piece a  full-page  illustration  showing  aviator  Ely 
leaving  the  cruiser  Pennsylvania,  anchored  in  San 
Francisco  Bay,  after  his  successful  flight  from  Tan- 
foran  Park  to  the  cruiser,  and  under  the  cut  the 
caption:  "Ely  leaving  the  Pennsylvania  on  the 
return  trip  to  the  aviation  field,  Los  Angeles."  The 
article  then  went  on  to  say  that  ' '  Ely  left  the  avi- 
ation field  and  new  twelve  miles  to  the  cruiser 
Pennsylvania,  in  the  harbor  of  Los  Angeles."

Oakland  evidently  has  metropolitan  aspirations 
of  its  own  which  it  doesn  't  propose  to  have  swal- 
lowed up  in  the  Greater  San  Francisco  idea.  In- 
stance the  resolution  of  the  Oakland  Board  of  Public 
Works  against  the  bill  now  before  the  Legislature, 
which  would  make  possible  the  annexation  of  Oak- 
land  to  San   Francisco.

H 


Alameda  County  Native  Sons 

To  Have  Ritualistic  Contest 


The  Districl  Deputy  Grand  Presidents  of  Alameda 
County  have  started  :i  ritual  contest  between  the 
several  Parlors,  as  Fruit  vale  Parlor,  No.  252,  quietly 
went  to  work  and  perfected  the  ritual,  exemplified 
it  letter  perfect,  and  then  challenged  Piedtnonl  Pai 
lor.  Tins  started  the  contest.  On  February  20th, 
Piedmont  put  on  the  work  at  Fruitvale,  and  on 
February  23rd,  Fruitvale  put  on  the  work  at  Pied- 
mont. Both  teams  have  spent  much  time  in  study- 
ing thf  ritualistic  work,  and  as  a  result  they  are 
enabled  to  present  the  initiatory  work  in  a  manner 
that    appeals   to    the    most    exacting   critic. 

On  Sunday  afternoon,  March  12th,  the  final  con- 
test for  supremacy  in  the  ritual  of  t he  ( >rder  will 
take  place  at  Alcatraz  Hall.  Seventh  and  Peralto 
streets,  Oakland,  between  the  officers  of  Piedmont 
Parlor,    No.    120,    and    Fruitvale    Parlor,    No.    252. 

There     will     be     plenty     .it'     rooin     for    all,    as     this     is 

a  big  hall.  Promptly  at  2  o'clock  p.  m.,  Bay  View 
Parlor,  No.  238,  will  call  the  meeting  to  order,  ami 
t  urn  the  ofiices  over  to  these  t  wii  I  'arlors,  which 
will  put  mi  the  work,  and  the  Deputies  will  act  as 
judges.  The  boys  are  working  hard  to  make  this 
the  grandest  ami  most  imposing  scene  ever  wit 
uessed    in    the    history    of    the    Order — when    the 

mother  (  Piedmont  1  r ts  her  two  babies  (  Hay  View 

ami  Fruitvale)  for  the  first  time,  together.  All 
three  teams  will  appear  in  handsome  uniforms  pre 
pared  for  the  occasion. 

This  will  lie  Alameda  <  ounty  's  compliment  to 
t lie  grand  officers,  who  will  attend  in  a  body  ami 
tin'   Grand    Parlor    Ritual   Committee   has  also  been 


invited.  Judging  from  the  interest  being  taken 
by  the  members,  there  will  be  a  larger  crowd  than 
at  t  he  i  nst  it  ut  inn  .it'  Fruitvale  I  'a  rlor — ami  that 
was  a  record  breaker.  Many  of  the  other  Parlors 
will  challenge  t lie  winners.  Remember,  this  is  the 
first  ritual  contest  ever  held  in  the  Order.  The 
judges  for  tins  occasion  are  to  be  eh. .sen  from  the 
following  Deputy  Grand  Presidents  of  Alameda 
County:  W.  .1.  Nolan,  Phil.  Carey,  W.  .1.  Herken

a  tt  em  jit  to  present  the  history  of  California  in  bo 
simple  and  interesting  a  way  that  children  may 
reau  it  with  pleasure.  It  tells  the  story  of  all  the 
principal  events,  from  the  Indian  occupancy  through 

the  Spanish  and  Mission  days,  the  excitement  of 
the    gold     discovery,     tin1     birth     ut'    the    State,    down

POSTAL  CARD  THAT  SHOULD  BE  ADOPTED  BY  ALL  PARLORS. 

A.  ( '.  Ostman,  secretary  of  Courtland  Parlor,  No.  106,  N.S.G.W.,  has  designed  a  postal  card  for  use 
by    his    Parlor    that    should'appeal    to    every    small    Parlor,  and   foT  that   matter,  the  large  ones,   ton.    One  of 

the  best  features  of  the  card   is  that    it  can   he  printed   in   large   quantities — as  it   is   so   * structed   as   to 

he  available  for  all  occasions — thus  materially  reducing  the  printing  cost.  Every  occasion  for  which 
i  aids  are  sent  to  members  is  outlined  on  the  postal,  So  that  all  that  is  necessary  is  to  punch  out  the  words 
that  apply  to  the  matter  in  hand.  For  instance,  supposing  the  members  are  to  lie  called  together  at  a 
special  meeting  to  attend  the  funeral  of  a  member  on  Saturday,  March  4th.  All  that  is  necessary  is  to 
punch    out    the    words   "Funeral,"    "Special,"'    "Saturday'"   and    "March,"    ami    the   figure   "4." 

A    copy    of    tlie    card    was    recently    sent    to    Grand    Secretary    Fred    H.   .lung,    and    this    is    what    he    wrote 

Mr.  Ostman  concerning  it:  "It's  so  good  I  want  to  have  it  generally  known,  and  I"  wish  you  would 
send  a  copy  to  The  drizzly  Bear  and  let  them  run  it  for  the  benefit  of  other  Parlors."  An  exact  copy 
of  the  card   is  herewith  produced':

Offers  Much --the  Official  Organ --for  Very  Little 


The  members  of  those  Parlors  that  subscribe  for 
the  official  organ  should  keep  their  secretaries 
advised  as  to  their  proper  addresse,  in  order  to  in* 
sure   prompt   delivery  of  the   magazine. 

To  Parlors  not  subscribing  for  the  official  organ. 
The  Girzzly  Bear,  for  all  their  members,  attention 
is  directed  to  the  fact  that  the  only  sure  and  eco- 
nomical way  of  keeping  their  members  in  touch 
with  the  Order  is  through  the  medium  of  the  offi- 
cial organ. 

The  cost  is  VERY  LITTLE;  the  benefits  will  he 
VERY    GREAT.      It    is    a    mutual    proposition — the 


Order  needs  the  magazine;   the  magazine  needs  the 
Order. 

If  your  Parlor  has  not  taken  up  this  attractive 
subscription  proposition,  but  is  interested  in  it.  write 
the  publishers  for  full  details  as  to  HOW  MUCH 
they  will  give  to  promote  interest  in  your  Parlor  and 
the  Order,  and  HOW  LITTLE  time,  energy  ami 
money  will  have  to  be  expended  by  your  Parlor  to 
get    full    benefit. 

This  is  a  question  that  should  appeal  to  you 
NOW. 


GOVERNOR    JOHNSON    ATTENDS 

JINKS  AT  HOME   PARLOR. 

Governor  Hiram  Johnson  was  a  guest  of  honor 
at  a  high  jinks  given  by  Sunset  Parlor.  NTo.  26, 
X.S.C.W.,  at  Sacramento,  February  6th,  at  which 
an  excellent  vaudeville  progra m  was  rendered.  In 
the  course  of  his  remarks  the  Cn\  ewior,  who  is  a 
member  of  Sunset  Parlor,  said:  ''It  is  well  to  re- 
member that  .after  we  have  all  ceased  to  be  native 
sons  and  have  become  native  fathers  and  grand- 
fathers, there  will  lie  others  to  carry  on  our  great 
Order.  We  have  pride  in  the  Order  and  it  is  proper 
pride,    for    this    State     is    ;,     heritage    of    the     Native 

Sons.  Not  that  we  do  not  welcome  others  to  the 
State,  but  it  is  right  that  the  Native  Sons  should 
take  an  interest  in  preserving  the  .government  of 
our  State  for  themselves  and  those  who  are  to 
come.  I  trust  that  we  may  meet  together  many 
times  more  during  my  four  years'  term  of  otfice, 
ami  that  I  may  meet  with  Native  Sons  of  all  por- 
tions of  the  State. ' ' 

Following  the  remarks  of  Mr.  Johnson,  refresh- 
ments were  served  at  small  tables.  Many  mem- 
bers of  the  Order  in  Sacramento  in  attendance 
upon  the  Legislature  were  present,  including  Sen- 
ator L.  11.  Koseberry  i.f  Santa  Barbara  and  Assem- 
blyman Frank  M.  Rutherford  of  Truckee.  John 
Straub   presided   over  the  jinks. 


PRESENTS  FLAU  TO  SCHOOL. 

The  Grand  Parlor,  N .  S .  G .  W.,  in  accordance 
with  a  resolution  passed  at  the  Lake  Tahoe  ses- 
sion, presented  a  set  of  Hags  to  the  Truckee  gram- 
mar school,  February  15th.  The  presentation  was 
made  by  Grand  Trustee  Frank  M.  Rutherford.  The 
event  was  under  the  auspices  of  Donner  Parlor, 
No.  162,  NjS.G.W.,  and  a  good  musical  and  literary 
program  was  provided.  The  public  and  school  pu- 
pils were  invited,  and  during  the  evening  the  Par- 
lors of  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  installed 
officers. 


Far  more  than  in  the  smile  that  won't  come  off, 
is  the  average  woman  interested  in  the  hair  that 
won 't    come   off. 


We  are  disposed  to  say  unkind  things  about  the 
mule,  but  the  fact  remains  that  there  are  many  men 
who    are    worse    kickers.

Feminine    World's    Fads    and    Fancies 


i 


HOUGH  MAKCH  IS  SUPPOSED  TO 
be  ruled  by  Mars,  the  mythical  god 
of  war,  we  have  no  fear  of  him,  as 
he  considerately  keeps  those  terrible 
March  winds  east  of  the  Bockies. 

So,  blow,  ye  March  winds,  but 
only  as  gentle  zephers  with  the  tang 
of  the  ocean,  whispering  of  the  long 
golden  days  so  soon  to  be  ours,  when 
our  rain-god  has  departed  for  other 
climes.  As  Tennyson  says, 
"In  the  spring  a  young  man's  fancy 
Lightly  turns  to  thoughts  of  love," 
So,  in  the  spring,  both  maids'  and  matrons'  thoughts 
turn  to  suitable  gowns,  hats  and  shoes,  with  all  of 
the  accessories  incidental  to  good  dressing.  If  we 
didn't  have  such  thoughts,  bringing  realizations, 
I'm  afraid  not  much  good  would  come  from  those 
very  expressive  lines.  After  our  late  run  of  fur 
for  turbans  and  trimmings  on  nearly  every  article 
of  dress,  it  is  certainly  refreshing  to  see  nature 
copied    so    extensively    in    our 

Up-to-date  Millinery. 
Rough  straws  and  two-toned  braids  are  now  tak- 
ing the  lead  in  hand-made  hats  and  turbans  for 
early  spring  wear.  Hemp  is  very  good,  not  only 
for  those  wide  brims  with  the  Napoleon  roll,  but 
also  as  pipings  to  ribbons  used  in  the  trimmings. 


CONDUCTED    BY   MINNIE   ALICE   BEAUFATT 

HOOH 

For  individuality  in  the  different  ideas,  we  may 
now  congratulate  ourselves,  as  this  season  a  milliner 
must  not  only  have  art,  but  regular  wizard  cunning 
in  her  fingers,  to  fashion  a  hat  that  will  suit  the 
wearer  and  enhance  what  natural  charms  she  may 
have  instead  of  being  in  some  style  which,  though 
chic  and  modish,  may  be  a  veritable  monstrosity  for 
that  particular  person.  It  will  be  a  godsend  to 
many,  who  may  now  have  something  really  becom- 
ing  and   still   be   "it." 

The  medium  and  large  rolling  brims  are  now 
the  best  lines,  though  many  turbans  are  shown. 
The  new  Helmet  shape  is  another  nifty  idea. 
Crowns  are  both  high  and  low,  giving  one  a  wide 
range  from  which  to  choose.  A  unique  feature  is 
the  many  kinds  of  flowers  now  grouped  together 
on  one  hat ;  and  the  small  flowers  are  also  used. 
Small  roses,  violets,  lillies  of  the  valley,  or  perhaps 
daisies,  with  their  foliage,  are  now  placed  at  one 
side — and  mostly  upright,  remember — with  perhaps 
a  large  bow  of  ribbon  piped  with  hemp,  which 
stiffens  it,   giving  that   "stick-up   effect." 

We  must  have  some  distinctive  feature  to  attract 
attention,  in  this  age  of  hustle.  Wide,  uncut  taffeta 
ribbon  with  the  hemp  piping  is  much  used  in  con- 
nection with  the  hemp  buckle,  as  it  can  be  used 
alone,  or  with  flowers,  straight  stiff  bristles  or 
feather  novelties,  and  is  decidedly  fetching.

Designs  from  Bullock's,  Los  Angeles 


One  of  this  mode  had  a  wide  band  of  green  velvet 
edged  with  cream  erochetted  braid,  across  the  roll, 
ending  in  a  large  erochetted  eabachon  with  bristles, 
at  the  left  side  front,  giving  it  a  very  Napoleonic 
air.  It  is  a  fetching  style  and  becoming  to  many. 
Those  "stick-up  effects,"  as  one  man  milliner  ex- 
pressed himself,  is  a  feature  which  will  appear  on 
many  of  the  spring  models,  as  ribbon  piped  with 
straw,  feather  novelties  and  flowers  of  all  kinds, 
will  be  so  placed  as  to  give  them  the  "Fifth  Avenue 
style. ' '

which  is  so  much  sought  after  now — will  be  ex- 
tensively featured. 

A  new  straw,  called  "sunrise,"  is  made  into 
many  block  shapes.  One,  a  sailor  shape,  is  made 
with  the  chocolate-drop  crown.  Cerise,  coral,  green, 
new  blue  and  all  the  wisteria  tones  give  one  a  great 
variety  in  the  block  shapes.  The  regulation  large 
sailor  in  the  rough  straws  will  be  worn,  but  now 
a  buncn  of  bristles  or  feather  novelties  at  one  side 
takes  off  that  severe  appearance.  With  so  much 
to    choose    from    in    this    line,    we    must    select    our 

Street  Suits 

to  harmonize.  The  narrow  skirt  and  short  jacket 
suits  still  hold  full  sway,  though  even  now  there's 
just  a  slight  tendency  to  modify  some  of  the  straight 
lines  of  the  skirt,  with  the  front  gore  overlapping 
at  the  right  side  in  a  pointed  effect,  finished  with 
small  erochetted  buttons  of  the  same  eolor.  Foot- 
pleats  at  each  side  front  give  it  a  wider  look,  and 
allow  a  little  more  room  for  walking.  The  skirt 
in  such  a  mode  is  fitted  over  the  hips  very  closely, 
the  lines  of  the  figure  being  followed  snugly,  which 
gives  it  the  narrow  effect,  though  just  a  trifle  wider 
around  the  feet.  Where  the  straight  effeet  is 
carried  out,  sometimes  a  wide  box-pleat  extends 
down  the  back,  or  perhaps  a  fold  of  velvet  or 
messaline  is  put  around  the  bottom. 

In  materials,  the  mannish  goods  are  just  the 
thing  for  early  spring  wear,  while  the  first  hint  of 
a  really  warm  day  will  bring  out  the  lighter  weaves, 
such  as  cream  sacking,  white  serge,  .white  and  cream 
basket  weaves,  diagonals  in  all  shades  of  gray, 
navy,    champagne    and   mustard;    while    tan,   in    its 


many  different  shades  and  materials,  will  be  as 
popular  as  ever.  The  combinations  are  unique  and 
striking  in  some  suits.  One  of  diagonal  navy,  had 
the  long  roll  to  the  collar  of  the  short  eoat  faced 
with  black  and  striped  silk,  outlined  with  green 
velvet,  while  the  eoat  was  lined  with  Irish  green 
satin.  Quite  a  suggestion  for  this  month  and  the 
immortal  17th.  The  skirt  fitted  very  closely,  with 
small  erochetted  buttons  to  finish  the  overlapped 
front  gore.  Methinks  Dame  Fashion  will  soon  find 
out  that  no  more  cloth  can  be  taken  out  of  the 
skirts,  and  will  right-about-face  before  long,  else 
there  will  be  mutiny  amongst  the  legion  of  her 
devotees,  as  even  now,  in  the  East,  on  a  particularly 
iey  pavement,   there  lias  been  open   rebellion. 

An  entirely  new  and  natty  two-pieee  suit  of  the 
cream  striped  basket  weave  had  the  coat  collar 
faced  with  ruby  velvet.  Large  pearl  buttons  were 
used  for  closing,  and  the  eoat  was  lined  with  heavy 
brocaded  satin.  The  skirt  was  perfectly  plain,  with 
just  the  wide  box-pleated  back.  Those  cream  sack- 
ings certainly  make  up  beautifully,  in  the  short 
coats  and  narrow  skirts.  One  cannot  form  any 
idea,  from  the  pen,  as  to  their  aetual  value  in 
regard  to  style  and  appearance,  as  the  eye  can  grasp 
the  salient  points  of  new  weaves — or,  in  fact,  any- 
thing that  savors  of  novelty — better  than  by  simply 
reading  of  tnem. 

When  one  is  gowned,  hatted  and  shod  in  correet 
style,  it  gives  a  mental  poise  that  goes  far  toward 
making  a  success  of  most  any  undertaking  she  may 
wish  to  engage  in.  All  these  little  accessories  and 
niceties,  so  dear  to  the  feminine  heart,  should  not 
be  neglected,  insofar  as  the  purse  will  allow,  for 
if  we  may  not  run  the  full  gamut,  there  are  certain 
things  one  should  always  abserve. 

In  Afternoon  and  Evening  Gowns, 
we  see  the  beauty  of  creation,  for  some  master  mind 
has  got  to'  achieve  and  perfect  ideas  in  those  lines. 
There  are  some  beautiful  ones,  too,  that  may  well 
be  styled  "success,"  in  all  that  the  word  implies. 
White  marquesette  is  a  material  that  conforms 
readily  to  art,  and  when  combined  with  val  lace 
or  cluny  as  inserting — with  the  new  fad  of  flowers 
and  foliage  stamped  or  hand-painted  around  the 
decollete  neck  and  at  the  bottom  of  the  skirt,  with 
the  lace  inserted  below  the  floral  design  on  the 
waist  in  points,  or  crosswise  or  lengthwise — you  can 
picture  the  perfect  gown. 

Such  a  one  had  a  rose  design,  with  the  high 
waist  line  of  eluny,  while  a  dainty  cluster  of  silk 
hand-made  rosebuds  and  foliage  was  caught  low 
down  on  each  shoulder  and  at  the  waist  line  in 
front.  The  skirt  was  very  narrow  and  simply 
shirred  into  the  waist. 

Another  one  of  white  marquesette  had  the  violet 
design  around  the  low  neck  and  short  sleeves,  while 
a  band  of  a  lighter  shade  of  violet  messaline  ex- 
tended around  the  bottom  of  the  skirt  about  three 
inches  up.  A  folded  messaline  girdle  formed  the 
high  waist  line.  Cluny  lace  was  inserted  in  points 
before  the  violet  design  on  the  waist.  Some  of 
the  skirts  are  in  the  double  effect,  with  a  band  of 
the   messaline   to   finish    each. 

On  another  gown  of  white  marquesette  a  floral 
design  of  jet  beading  extended  around  the  low 
neck,  while  just  below  that,  on  the  front  of  the 
waist,  an  immense  erochetted  rose  design  was  in- 
serted. A  black  folded  messaline  girdle  and  plain 
narrow  skirt  completed  a  frock  that  had  an   indi-

vi duality  all  its  own.  Embroidered  net  and  maize 
mcssaline  make  up  prettilj  together.  Hand-made 
silK  roses  and  buds,  with  :i  little  foliage,  outlined 
i  lip  decollette  neck  and  short  kimono  Bloeves,  while 
a  tiny  fluster  of  i )'<'  same  were  at  the  waist  line, 
and  clung  to  one  side  of  the  skirt  as  if  carelessly 
eaught    in    the    not. 

Such  frocks  all  tend  toward  simplicity  (T),  ah, 
yes!  Daddy  thinks  they  an-  extremely  simple,  when 
lie  writes  a  check  for  one  such  as  described  above, 
for  we  note  the  beatific  frown  which  only  for  a 
moment  wrinkles  that  benign  face.  Never  mind, 
daddy,  the  Lenten  season  is  now  upon  us,  with  its 
atmosphere  of  "sack  cloth  and  ashes.'*  so  you  will 
doubtless  have  a  little  peace,  watching  tin'  Bmoke 
curl  upwards  from  t he  inevitable  |»i|M'-  -^s  warm 
weal  her  will  soon  he  with  us,  a  slight  forecast  in 
some    of    the    newest    of    the    now 

Lingerie  Gowns 
may  give  one  a  few  ideas  in  the  coming  rush  of 
spring  ami  summer  Bewing.  A  dainty  white  silk 
mull  had  t  he  square  mesh  \  a  I  lace  inserted  be- 
tween rows  of  embroidery,  on  both  tin1  waisl  and 
s!\  irt.  (hi  must  of  t  he  gowns,  very  little  of  the 
ground  material  shows,  as  it  is  almost  entirely  cut 
out  to  allow  for  the  inserting  of  lace  and  em- 
broidery. Some  skirts  are  tucked  in  clusters  of 
tiny  tucks,  with  inserting  in  between  to  about 
half-way  down,  when  a  scant  flounce,  similarly 
trimmed,  is  finished  with  a  deep  hem.  High  waist 
lines  prevail,  and  the  kimono  sleeve  is  in  greater 
favor  than  ever,  as  the  lines  of  the  figure  are  fol- 
lowed more  closely,  eliminating  the  (lowing  Oriental 
style,  giving  one  a   daintier  and  more  trig  look. 

Dutch  and  square  necks  will  take  the  lead  in 
those  sheer  frocks,  and  hand  made  silk  roses  now 
form  a  distinctive  feature  in  clusters  for  the  waist, 
or  a  full  row  around  the  neck  with  tiny  clusters 
on  the  short  kimono  sleeves,  and  larger  ones  at 
the  waist  line.  Narrow  black  velvet  ribbon  may 
be  pnl  between  the  lace  in  the  girdle,  and  the  low 
necks  may  be  outlined  with  the  same.  Allover 
embroidery  is  another  dainty  material  for  lingerie 
frock  s.  and  instead  of  using  that  alone,  val  lace 
is  inserted  in  rows  all  around  the  waist  and  skirt 
in    lengthwise   effect. 

A  heavy  raised  design  of  roses  in  hand- embroidery 
is  a  feature  on  the  front  of  the  waist  in  some  of 
the  late  importations.  Anyone  clever  with  the 
needle  may  follow  that  mode  with  a  little  patience, 
for  the  home  dressmaker  has  many  garments  to 
fashion,  ami  many  ideas  gleaned  from  imported 
frocks  can  be  utilized  to  good  advantage  on  less 
pretentious  gowns,  for  not  all  of  us  have  a  big 
bank-roll  back  of  us,  and  even  daddy  may  balk  at 
t  imes.

Mrs.  E.  M.  Eckstrom,  for  over  sixty  years  a  resi-

surprise  by  her  children  (all  born  in  Stockton), 
grandchildren  and  great-grandchildren,  upon  the  oc- 
casion of  her  eightieth  birthday,  Saturday,  Janu- 
ary 21st.  The  sons  and  daughters  of  Mrs.  Eckstrom. 
namely.  Mrs.  Anna  Walsh,  Mrs,  Emma  Lea,  Miss 
Ella  Eckstrom,  of  Stockton;  Geo.  F.  Eckstrom,  of 
Salt  Lake  City;  Albert  A.  and  John  R.  Eckstrom,  of

somely decorated  with  ferns.,  violets,  Scotch,  Swed 
ish,  American  and  Bear  flags.  The  Scotch  flag  de- 
noted the  birthplace  of  the  mother,  the  Swedish 
flag  that  of  the  father,  the  Bear  flag  California,  the 
native  State  of  all  the  children.  The  successful 
affair  was  gotten  up  as  a  surprise  to  Mrs.  Eckstrom. 
who  was  deeply  affected  by  the  token  of  love  and 
respect  shown  her. 

Scottish  songs,  rendered  by  Mrs.  Flower,  brought 
tears  to  the  eyes  of  many  around  the  table.  Rem- 
iniscences of  childhood,  in  Stockton,  were  told  by 
each  son  and  daughter,  bringing  back  memories  of 
bygone  happy  days,  and  the  telling  of  childhood 
pranks,  played  by  parents  and  children  alike,  cre- 
ated much  mirth.  It  is  not  often  that  a  mother 
reaches    the    ripe   age   of   eighty,    and   at    the    same 


time  is  fortunate  enough  to  have  around  her  all  of

banquet  table,  and  Mrs.  Eckstrom  and  all  present

days.  It  was  also  the  first  occasion  that  Mrs.  |->k

for   thirty-five   years.     Tin-   banquel    lasted    from    6 

p.m.  until  12:30  a.m..  and  terminated  With  the  sing 
ing  of  ''Auld  Lang  Syne.''  ami  expressions  of  hope

Cornerstone  of  Handsome  New  Building 


ASHINGTON  'S  BIRTHDAY,  FEBRU- 
ary  22nd,  the  Native  Sons  of  the 
Gohlen  West  laid  the  cornerstone 
of  their  new  class  "A  "building  on 
Mason  street,  between  Geary  and 
Post  streets,  San  Francisco.  The 
site  was,  prior  to  the  1906  fire,  oc- 
cupied by  a  hall  of  the  Order,  the 
cornerstone  of  which  was  laid  Febru- 
ary 22,  1895.  The  old  cornerstone 
and  the  box  therein  have  been  pre- 
served, and  the  same  stone,  as  well 
as  the  box  and  its  original  contents,  were  used  in 
the  ceremonies  just  held.  Additional  data  and 
relics  appertaining  to  the  history  of  the  State  and 
the  Order  since  1895  were  added  to  the  cornerstone

Something   About   the    Hall. 

The  new  Native  Sons  Hall,  to  be  one  of  the  finest 
iraternal  buildings  in  the  West,  will  be  eight  stories 
high.  The  basement  will  contain  a  large  jinks  or 
banquet  hall,  with  all  the  conveniences  and  ac- 
cessories, such  as  stage,  kitchen,  hat  and  cloak 
rooms,  etc.  The  first  floor  will  be  a  large  assembly 
hall  or  ball  room,  with  comfortable  parlors  and 
reception  rooms.  The  second  floor  will  have  the 
balcony  of  assembly  hall,  women  *s  parlor,  check 
rooms,  and  men's  smoking  room,  all  connecting  with 
the  assembly  nail,  also  the  office  of  the  building. 
The  third  floor  will  contain  one  lodge  room  and 
suitable  offices  for  the  grand  secretary.  The  fourth 
and  fifth  floors  will  each  have  three  lodge  rooms, 
and  the  sixth  and  seventh  floors  four  lodge  rooms 
each,  all  with  suitable  anterooms  and  lockers.  The 
eighth,  or  top  floor,  will  be  devoted  to  the  N.  S. 
G.  W.  elub  rooms,  consisting  of  library,  billiard 
room,  lounging  room,  card  rooms,  etc.  No  pains 
have  been  spared  in  designing  the  building  so  as 
to  make  the  assembly  hall  the  most  attractive  and 
tne  lodge  rooms  the  most  comiortable  and  con- 
venient, and  when  the  building  is  completed  it  will 
be  elaborately  furnished  throughout,  in  keeping 
with   the  magnificence  of  the  structure. 

The  steel  used  in  the  building  is  being  entirely 
fabricaied  in  San  Francisco  by  the  Pacific  Rolling 
Mills,  and  oil  the  materials  used  in  the  construc- 
tion, where  possible,  are  to  be  California  products. 
The    excavations    for    the    foundation    have    been

Subordinate  Parlors  and  individual  members  of  the 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden   West.

Byington  Presides  at  Exercises. 

Following  the  parade,  appropriate  exercises  in 
conjunction  with  the  cornerstone  laying  were  held. 
P.  G.  P.  Lewis  F.  Byington,  chairman  of  the  day, 
presided,  and  in  the  course  of  his  opening  remarks 
said:  "Sixteen  years  ago  to-day  upon  this  spot  was 
laid,  with  fitting  ceremonies,  the  cornerstone  saved 
from  the  fire  of  April,  18,  1906,  which  we  now  dedi- 
cate, and  what  more  auspicious  day  could  have  been 
selected  to  lay  the  cornerstone  of  a  building,  the 
future  home  of  a  fraternity  whose  basic  principle 
is  loyalty  to  home  and  country,  than  the  birthday  of 
Washington,  the  first  great  patriot  of  the  nation. 
The  spirit  of  unselfish  devotion  to  country  which 
characterized  the  patriot,  born  in  1732,  upon  what 
was  then  the  frontier  of  America,  led  our  Pioneer 
Fathers  ever  westward  over  mountain,  river  and 
plain,  across  the  far-stretching  prairies  and  the 
trackless  deserts,  through  the  snow-bound  canyons 
of  the  Rockies  and  the  Sierras,  until  at  last  they 
stood  wifhin  the  fertile  valleys,  surrounded  by  the 
glorious  mountains  and  bathed  in  the  golden  sun- 
light of  California. 

'  *  Overcoming  hardships,  surmounting  obstacles, 
triumphing  over  adverse  conditions,  they  developed 
thereby   a    sterling   quality    of    character    which    is 


the  noblest  heritage  of  the  West.  Brave,  strong 
open-hearted  and  loyal,  their  influence  is  with  us 
today,  and  the  unconquerable  spirit  of  those  who 
carried  the  torch  of  civilization  to  the  shores  of 
the  Pacific  is  exemplified  in  their  sturdy  sons  who, 
from  the  ashes  and  the  ruins  of  the  old  San  Fran- 
cisco, have  created  a  new  city  greater,  more  pros- 
perous and  more  beautiful  than  the  one  which 
passed  away. 

"Scarce  a  week  has  gone  by  since  the  President 
set  his  approval  to  the  act  of  Congress  which  desig- 
nated San  Francisco  as  the  city  within  which 
should  be  celebrated  the  greatest  engineering 
achievement  of  all  times,  the  completion  of  the 
Panama  Canal,  and,  at  the  dawn  of  the  new  era 
which  that  event  heralds  to  the  world,  we  are  the 
first  to  lay  the  cornerstone  of  a  building  which, 
we  hope,  may  in  some  measure  commemorate  our 
victory  and  serve  as  a  temple  of  patriotism.  The 
cornerstone  of  our  building  is  loyalty — loyalty  to 
the  Pioneer  Fathers  and  Mothers,  loyalty  to  the 
traditions  of  the  West,  loyalty  to  our  State  and, 
above  all  else,  loyalty  to  the  flag  of  our  common 
country. 

"We  hope  that  this  building,  when  completed, 
may  ever  remain  a  lasting  monument  to  the  pat- 
riotic spirit  of  this  Order.  When  this  fair  city, 
seated  by  the  Golden  Gate  and  resolutely  facing 
the  awakened  East,  shall  be  enriched  with  the  com- 
merce of  every  land  and  every  sea,  and  shall  rival 
in  population,  in  beauty  and  in  art,  the  greatest 
cities  of  the  world,  may  California,  with  her 
glorious  heritage,  in  every  movement  for  the  ad- 
vancement •  of  liberty  and  the  betterment  of 
humanity,   stand   in   the   forefront  of  the   nations." 

Belshaw  Appeals  to  Members. 
.  P.  G.  P.  Charles  M.  Belshaw,  who  has  labored 
incessantly  for  the  success  of  the  ball  project,  con- 
fined his  remarks  to  urging  those  members  of  the 
Order  who  have  not  already  done  so,  to  subscribe 
for  stock  in  the  hall  association,  in  order  to  raise 
an  additional  $40,000.  required  for  the  completion 
and  furnishing  of  the  building  free  from  all  debt. 
He  stated  that  the  cost  of  the  building  and  furnish- 
ings would  total  $225,000,  and  of  this  amount  $185,- 
000  now  was  on  hand  in  cash  and  stock  subscrip- 
tions. 

Mr.  Belshaw  appealed  to  the  members  of  the 
Order  not  only  from  the  standpoints  of  patriotism 
and  duty,  but  pointed  out  as  well  that  the  purchase 
of  stock  would  mean  a  safe  financial  investment. 
To  prove  this  latter  assertion,  the  speaker  quoted 
figures,  based  upon  rentals  of  only  fifty  per  cent  of 
the  capacity  of  the  building,  to  show  that  the  net 
yearly  profits  from  the  building  would  amount  to 
$15,990,  er  five  per  cent  on  an  investment  of  $325,- 
000,  which  includes  $225,000  for  hall  and  furnish- 
ings and  $100,000  for  the  lot. 

Other  speakers  were  Daniel  A.  Ryan,  Grand 
President  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West; 
Mamie  G.  Peyton,  Grand  President  of  the  Native 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  West;  and  James  D. 
Phelan.  president  of  the  Native  Sons  Hall  Associa- 
tion. 

In  the  evening,  there  was  a  grand  banquet  at 
the  Fairmont,  where  several  patriotic  addresses 
were  delivered.  H.  G.  W.  Dinkelspiel  was  in  charge 
of  this  affair,  and  acted  as  toastmaster. 

Grand  President  Places  Cornerstone. 

"In  the  name  of  the  Great  God,  in  the  name  of 
California,  in  the  names  of  our  Pioneer  Fathers  and 
Mothers,  and  to  the  glory  of  the  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  I  lay  this 
cornerstone."  With  these  words,  Daniel  A.  Ryan, 
Grand  President  of  the  Order,  tapped  into  position 
the  cornerstone  of  the  handsome  Native  Sons  Tem- 
ple. Grand  Secretary  Fred  H.  Jung  announced  the 
contents  of  the  box  in  the  cornerstone  as  current 
coins,  daily  newspaper,  city  and  State  publications 
and  records  of  the  Order  which  were  placed  under 
the  first  cornerstone,  a  copy  of  Will  Irwin's  "The 
Gity  That  Was,"  copies  of  the  daily  papers  showing 
the  landing  of  an  airship  on  a  war  vessel  in  the 
harbor  and  the  singing  of  Tetrazzini  in  the  open 
street,  a  map  of  San  Francisco  in  1S47,  a  copy  of 
the  current  telephone  directory,  a  piece  of  teak- 
wood  from  the  United  States  cruiser  California,  and 
a  eopy  of  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine. 

The  order  of  exercises  at  the  cornerstone  laying

THE      GRIZZLY       BEAR

In   Oration,   Dangers  of  Japanese  Immigration  Pointed  Out 


>V  JAMES  1>.  PHELAN  OF  I'A 
cifie  Parlor,  N.S.G.W.,  presidonl  of 
the  ball  association,  delivered  the 
oral  ion  al  t  he  cornerstone  laying,  in 
the  course  of  which  In-  said:  "The 
enthusiasm  which  bas  been  displayed 
in«l;i\    recalls  to  m  \    mind  the  laying 

of  the  comersl sixteen  years  ago. 

Yet  there  was  not  the  same  enthusi- 
astic demonstration  on  thai  occasion. 
What  has  happened  today  is  signifi 
cant  of  it'"  trials  and  stress  we  ha\  e 
gone  through.  We  have  been  drawn  closer  togethei 
in  the  upbuilding  of  our  city.  Anyone  who  contrib- 
utes to  that  end  is  regarded  as  our  benefactor  and 
friend.      We   saw    our    magnificent    city   razed    in   a 

night,  bul    we  did  qo1   go  away.     It   reminds  a I 

the  [ndian  who  was  found  wandering  in  the  \\ Is 

ami  who  was  asked  if  he  were  lost.  'No.  [ndian 
is  here.  Wigwam  lost.*  he  replied.  We  are  back  to 
our  old  wigwam  today.  And  the  good  [ndian  will 
be  welcomed.  San  Francisco  is  a  natural  city,  but 
Oakland  is  an  acquired  taste.  I  say  San  BVancisco 
is  a  natural  city  because  nothing  less  than  a  natural 

city  could   have  withst 1  earthquake,   fire,   plague, 

fear  Ml  the  elements  seem  to  have  been  against  us. 
In  the  next  five  years  we  will  be  conspicuous  in  the 
eyes  of  the  nations  of  the  world.  Let  us  do  all  in 
our  power  to  bring  about  a  consummation  devoutly 
to  be  wished,  that  the  city  itself  shall  be  an  exhi- 
bition of  beauty,  of  charm  and  of  cleanliness  to  our 
guests.  We  have  less  than  five  short  years,  and 
there  will  be  no  difficulty  in  doing  it  if  we  are 
Imbued  with  the  spirit  of  progress." 
"  Mr.  Phelan  then  said:  "I  think  felicitations  are 
vain,  if  we  tail  to  profit  by  our  meetings.  1  desire 
here  t<>  refer  to  a  subject,  believing  that  we  are  all 
of  one  accord.  The  danger  to  our  California  is  my 
apology  for  speaking;  but  you  should  not  only  know 
your  danger,  but  understand  your  duty.  The  Na- 
tive Sons  should  be  in  the  vanguard  in  the  hour  of 
their  -State's  peril — they  are  the  warders  by  the 
Golden  Gate. 

Do  Not  Want  Japanese. 
"The  people  of  California,  it  is  very  sate  to  as- 
sume, do  not  want  Japanese  coolie  immigration,  and 
I  believe  if  there  are  any  well-meaning  persons  who 
have  any  doubt  upon  this  subject,  when  once  ac 
quainted  with  the  facts,  they  will,  if  they  love  their 
on ii  ui  ry,  forget  their  persona  I  inconvenience  and 
range  themselves  with  the  interest  of  the  State. 
By  way  of  example,  there  are  now  in  the  Hawaiian 
[slands  a  majority  of  Japanese.  In  less  than  fifteen 
years  it  is  calculated  that  the  Japanese  native  popu- 
lation, having  been  born  upon  the  soil  of  the  United 
States,  will  be  able  to  outvote  the  present  American 
population.  Although  the  flag  floats  over  the  Ha- 
waiian Islands,  it  will  be,  by  reason  of  the  pre- 
ponderance of  these  people,  to  all  intents  and  pur- 
poses  a   Japanese   territory. 

"The  report  of  the  Federal  Immigration  Commis- 
sion, just  issued,  shows  that  out  of  a  Japanese  popu- 
lation of  100,000  in  the  continental  territory  of  the 
United  States,  oii.iiiin  are  in  California.  It  further 
shows  that  they  are  fast  driving  the  white  agricul 
turists  to  the  wall;  that  they  are  organized  and  for- 
midable in  an  economic  sense;  that  they  move  in 
gangs  from  farming  district  to  fanning  district,  dis- 
placing the  whites  and  Chinese  wherever  they  go. 
If  we  regard  the  I  ihinese  as  a  pest,  the  Japanese 
would  well  serve  the  purpose  of  the  vadalia  cardina- 
lia,  which  is  a  matter  of  one  insect  eating  another. 
But  the  trouble  is  that  they  also  attack  the  tree, 
which  is  the  sturdy  white  population  of  the  coun- 
try, which  stands  for  family  life,  civic  duty  and  the 
interests  of  civilization.  Not  content  with  working 
for  wages,  according  to  the  report  of  the  Immigra- 
tion Commission  and  a  matter  of  common  observa- 
tion, they  take  the  leases  from  the  small  tenant 
farmers  and  ultimately  acquire  the  fee  of  the  laud. 
In  other  words,  they  have  gone  into  our  must  fer 
tile  valleys  and  have  displaced  the  white  popula- 
tion. They  are  non-assi  mil  able,  and  cannot  amal- 
gamate with  our  people  and  make  a  homogeneous 
race,  and  the  same  question  which  arose  in  the 
Southern  States  will  rise  in  California.  You  can 
not  have  the  democratic  form  of  government  where 
one  race  is  subordinate  to  the  other,  or  where  it  re- 
mains a  part  as  a  permanently  foreign  element. 
These  are  the  facts. 

Treaty   Rights. 
"The  present  treaty  gives  the  United  States  the 

right  to  regulate  immigration,  which,  of  course,  i1- 
an  inherent  right  in  a  sovereign  state,  but  it  is  one 
thing  to  possess  that  right  and  quite  another  thing 
to  have  the  consent  of  a  foreign  power  to  the  exer 
cise  of  it,  because,  in  the  latter  case,  the  right  can 
be  exercised  without  criticism  or  offense,  and  all 
other   nations   will   be   bound   to   respect    it.      But    if 


HON.  JAMES  D.  PHELAN, 
Who  Delivered  Masterly  Oration. 


the  Japanese  negotiate,  as  they  have  done,  a  treaty 
without  that  right  conceded  and  also  containing 
'the  favored  nation'  clause,  so  soon  as  the  right  is 
exercised  they  will  claim  that  the  United  States  is 
discriminating  against  their  people  and  is  treating 
them  differently  than  are  treated  the  people  of  the 
other   great    powers. 

"Just  as  the  United  States,  having  by  treaty 
with  England  eliminated  the  old  clause  forbidding 
the  United  States  to  fortify  the  canal,  asserted  tlie 
right  without  express  consent  to  fortify  it.  so  can 
Japan  claim  that  by  having  eliminated  the  immi- 
gration clause  form  i!1-  treaty,  the  United  States,  by 
implication,  gave  its  consent  to  let  down  the  liars. 
Japan  mignl  go  so  far  as  to  urge  an  act  excluding 
its  coolies  passed  by  i  Congress  under  such  circum- 
stances as  a  causus  belli.  In  other  words,  we  are 
exposing  ourselves  unnecessarily  to  a  grave  danger. 
It  is  the  sense  of  the  people  of  this  country  that  no 
further  race  question  be  imposed  upon  us  for  solu- 
tion. We  do  not  want  the  Japanese  coolie,  and  that 
may  just  as  well  be  understood  now  as  at  any  other 
time.      Let   us   settle   the   question    now. 

"In  the  preamble  of  the  Chinese  treaty,  China 
consents  to  the  exclusion  of  its  coolies  on  the  ground 
that  their  presence  is  a  cause  of  domestic  irritation 
in  the  United  States.  To  a  still  greater  degree  is 
the  presence  of  the  Japanese  coolie  a  cause  of  do- 
mestic irritation  that  is  bound  to  lead,  if  tolerated, 
to   serious  trouble. 

"After  abandoning  our  right  by  treaty  to  regu- 
late immigration,  the  United  States  and  Japan  have 
apparently  agreed  to  exchange  notes,  by  wh'ieh 
Japan  continues  the  so-called  '  gentlemen 's  agree 
ment,'  in  which  Japan  promises  to  restrict  the  emi- 
gration of  its  i lies  from  Japanese  ports  to  United 

States  ports.  Here  we  are  asked  to  rely  upon  the 
good  faith  of  Japan,  but  Japan  has  a  parliamentary 
government,  and  at  any  time  a  change  of  ministry 
may  set  aside  the  'gentlemen's  agreement."  which, 
of  course,  has  not  the  force  nor  solemnity  of  a 
treaty,  and  we  would  then  be  driven  to  the  neces- 
sity >>t'  excluding  the  Japanese  without  their  con- 
sent. It  is  well  known,  and  Congress  has  been  in- 
formed   OH    this    subject,    that,    whereas    the    'gentle 

men's  agreement'  has  apparently  kept  the  Japanese. 
from  shipping  to  American  ports,  they  go  to  Brit- 
ish Columbia  and  Mexico  in  large  numbers  and  im- 
mediately come  over  the  borders  to  t  lie  fat  lands 
and  the  attractive  climate  so  agreeable  to  them  on 
the  Pacific  Coast  of  the   United  States. 

Our  Plain  Duty. 
"Our  plain  duty  is  to  hold  fast  \<>  what  we  al- 
ready have.  I  am  informed  that  the  State  Depart- 
ment in  Washington  desires  t <>  make  some  conces 
sion  to  the  Japanese  in  consideration  of  commercial 
advantages  to  be  enjoyed  by  Americans  in  tin.'  Ori- 
ent,   both    in    Japan.    Manchuria    and    China,    ami    it 


looks  very  much  as  though  it  were  a  trade  by  which 
California  was  t..  be  sacrificed  foi  the  commercial 
greed  of  Hie  great  interests,  which  are  not  particu 
larly    concerned    aboul     white    labor    on    the    Pacific 

Coast,  nor  the  perpetuation  in  its  i i  j  of  dem 

ocral  ic   Form  of  go^  eminent . 

r(We  are  al I    to  celebrate  the  opening  of  the 

Panama  'anal,  which  will  bring,  we  are  told,  large 
benefits  in  the  waj  of  a  desirable  immigration  from 
Europe,  al  i  racted  by  the  direct  route  and  cheap 
transportation   to  the   fairest    land   under  the  skies; 

but     will     we    be    able    to    build     Up    "in     Stale    by     Ihis 

much  needed  immigration  if  the  country  is  already 
occupied  by  Japanese.'     If   ii    is  une   that    thi    I  au 

casia  n   race  ci t    live  side  bj    side   with   I  he  Jap 

anese  and  survive  in  a  fierce  industrial  competition, 
then  all  the  benefits  of  the  canal  will  be  lost  to  LIS. 
We  do  not  want  to  be  governed  from  Tokio,  and  ii 
is  important  al  this  crisis  to  inform  Washington 
that  the  people  oi  California,  for  the  reasons  staled. 

protest    vigorously    against    it limination    of    the 

immigration   clause   from   the   treaty   with  Japan.'' 
Would  Arouse   People. 
In  concluding  his  address,  which  was  listened  to 

With  marked  attention  by  the  assemble. I  thousands 
and    frequently    interrupted    with    tumultuous   cl is. 

VO.T.    Phelan    said : 

''I  will  close  by  giving  you  one  word  as  to  your 
duty — and    I    would    not     refer    to    I  lus    did     I     not    be 

lieve  we  were  of  one  accord— that   the  government 

al    Washington   is,   with  a    mistaken    idea   of   placating 

the  oriental  races,  contriving  i"  strike  from  tin- 
treaty  which  now  protects  the  Native  Sons  and  the 
Native  1  laughters  of  California,  and  its  adopted 
citizens,  the  provision  on  which  we  rely  for  our  pro 
tection.       Secretly,    they    are    doing    this. 

''We  are  told  that  the  danger  of  immigration  has 
ceased.  But  it  is  not  true,  for  over  our  unprotected 
borders,  this  insidious  enemy  is  invading  our  State. 
and  unless  we  raise  our  voices  to  inform  our  fellow 
countrymen,  who  sympathize  with  Anglo  Saxon  civi- 
lization and  the  dominance  of  the  whit  e  race,  we 
shall  be  the  victims  of  the  mistaken  policy  of  our 
i  Jovernment. 

"We  have  no  sympathy  here  with  those  philan- 
thropists who  are  always  talking  about  the  brother 
hood  of  man  and  the  fatherhood  of  Co. I.  They  do 
not  realize  the  fact  that  it  is  impossible  for  t  he 
Caucasian  ami  the  Mongolian  to  live  toget  her,  to 
assimilate,  to  amalgamate,  and  to  become  a  homo- 
geneous pople.  It  is  a  crime  against  free  govern- 
ment to  allow  unrestricted  immigration.  The  Lord. 
we  are  told  by  these  gentlemen,  made  of  one  blood 
all  the  races  of  the  earth,  but  in  the  same  paragraph 

of  i  lie  g 1  book  it  is  told  us  that  He  appointed  the 

places  of   their   habitation. 

"This  continent  belongs  to  us.  That  continent  be- 
longs to  them.  There  is  a  wide  breach  between  us. 
We  welcome  their  scholars.  We  welcome  their  mer- 
chants. Men  among  them — graduates  of  our  own 
universities — must  realize  that  it  is  impossible  for 
us  in  receive  the  coolie,  while  we  can  well  receive 
and  tolerate  the  scholar.  It  is  a  question  involving 
the  great  subject  of  racial  imcompat ability  and  anti- 
pathy. As  it  involves,  however,  the  life  of  Cali- 
fornia 1  have  ventured  to  awaken  the  Native  Sons 
and  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West  to  not 
nnl\  a  sense  of  their  danger,  but  to  a  sense  of  their 
duty. '

a  widow  and  six  children.  In  1S49,  deceased  and 
George  Sewell  started  for  California  in  an  ox  team, 
and  after  a  perilous  trip  across  the  plains — during 
which  the  two  young  men  became  separated  from 
the  train — arrived  at  Coloma,  El  Dorado  County. 
Being  without  funds  upon  their  arrival,  deceased 
and  his  partner  procured  a  grubstake,  started  min- 
ing, and  later  purchased  milch  eows  and  poultry. 
After  a  time  spent  in  El  Dorado  County,  they  went 
to  Placer  County  and  located  on  the  Auburn  River 
at  a  spot  where  Lincoln  now  stands.  They  then  had 
fifteen  Spanish  milch  cows  and  twenty-five  hens, 
and  they  made  money  selling  milk  at  $2  a  quart, 
butter  at  $1.50  a  pound",  and  eggs  at  $3  a  dozen. 
This  was  in  1852,  and  ever  since  Mr.  Newton  had 
resided  in  Placer  County.  He  was  much  interested 
in  the  Orders  of  Isative  Sons  and  Native  Daughters, 
and  on  several  occasions  had  entertained  them  with 
stories  of  the  early  days  in  California.  Placer  Par- 
lor, N.D.G.W.,  attended,  the  funeral  of  deceased  in 
a  body.

neer citizens,  died  in  Vallejo,  January  1  /th.  He 
was  a  native  of  Nova  Scotia,  aged  84  years,  and  is 
survived  by  a  son.  Sutton  crossed  the  plains  in 
'49;  went  to  San  Jose  in  1850  and  drove  the  stage 
from  that  place  to  San  Francisco;  later  he  drove  a 
stage  between  Watson ville  and  Santa  Cruz,  and 
when  the  railroad  superceded  the  stagecoach,  he 
took  up  his  norne  in  Santa  Cruz,  where  he  resided 
until  recently. 

Mrs.  Josephine  Montgomery,  who  crossed  the 
plains  in  1849,  died  in  San  Jose,  January  23rd.  She 
was  a  native  of  Missouri,  aged  84  years,  and  sur- 
vived by  five  children.

tilities, passed  away  recently  at  Eohuerville,  Hum- 
boldt County.  Deceased  was  a  native  of  Pennsyl- 
vania, aged  86  years,  and  is  survived  by  a  widow 
and  two  sons.  Hansell  had  lived  in  Humboldt 
County  for  fifty-nine  years  and  was  actively  asso- 
ciated with  the  upbuilding  of  that  part  of  the 
State. 

Michael  Hoalton,  an  early  Pioneer  of  Humboldt 
County,  died  at  Eureka,  January  8th.  He  was  a 
native  of  New  York,  aged  80  years,  and  is  survived

a  long  journey  across  the  plains,  deceased  arrived 
in  California  in  1S50,  and  after  mining  in  Butte 
and  Tuolumne  Counties,  went  to  Tuolumne  City, 
the  metropolis  of  Stanislaus  County  in  early  days,

continuously  since. 

Mrs.  Carmen  H.  DeSoto,  one  of  the  oldest  resi- 
dents of  Contra  Costa  County,  passed  away  at  Con- 
cord, January  18th,  survived  by  seven  children. 
Deeeased  was  a  daughter  of  Don  Valentin  Higuera 
and  Margarita  Sais,  children  of  prominent  .Spanish 
families,  and  was  born  near  Mission  San  Jose,  July 
27,  1830 — twenty  years  before  California  became 
a  State,  and  when  this  territory  was  under  the  rule 
of  Jose  Mariana  de  Escheandia,  third  of  the  Mexi- 
can Governors.  In  1852,  deceased  became  the  wife 
of  Silverio  Y.  C.  De  Soto  who,  like  herself,  was  a 
descendant  of  two  of  the  oldest  Spanish  families. 
In  1853,  Mrs.  De  Soto  and  her  husband  went  to 
Contra  Costa  County — then  comprising  what  is  now 
Contra  Costa  and  Alameda  Counties — and  settled 
on  the  original  De  Soto  tract  in  Ygnacio  Valley,  a 
portion  of  the  San  Miguel  Rancho,  one  of  the  old 
Spanish  grants.  At  this  homestead,  deceased  had 
resided  continuously,  in  a  house  brought  around  the 
Horn  and  mortised  together.  Mrs.  De  Soto  was  the 
last  of  the  pioneer  Spanish  settlers  of  Contra  Costa 
County,  and  she  had  for  nearly  sixty  years  seen 
the   county's   steady   development.

tive of  Pennsylvania,  aged  SO  years,  and  is  survived 
by  a  son. 

Goolsberry  B.  Meador,  who  came  to  the  State  in

Interesting  Meetings  for  Grand  President 


(BY  A  SPECIAL  CONTRIBUTOR.) 


Two  of  the  most  interesting  of  Grand  Presi 
•  lent  Mamie  Gh  Peyton's  official  visits  In  San  Fran- 
cisco took  place  on  the  6th  and  7th  of  February. 
<  >n  the  i>t li  Minerva  Parlor  w .is  the  scene  oi  some 
excellent  Native  Daughter  work,  .-til  the  more  praise- 
unit hv  since  t he  officers  had  been  installed  only 
the  meeting  before.  There  wns  n  <;imm1  attcndnm-i1, 
much  interest  was  manifested  in  the  work  and,  as 
ever,  Minerva's  members  were  mosl  charming  hos- 
tesses. It  mighl  lif  well  t<i  mention  that  Minerva 
Parlor  is  the  oldest  Parlor  in  San  Francisco,  hav- 
ing been  instituted  March  10,  1887,  by  Lillie  0. 
Reichlin  (now  Mrs.  Dyer)  of  Ursula  Parlor,  No. 
1,  Jackson,  the  founder  of  the  Order.  Minerva  Tai- 
lor is  a  Parlor  known  throughout  tin-  Order  for  its 
strict  adherence  to  the  constitution  and  laws  of  the 
Order— in  fact,  "Minerva  is  synonymous  with 
everyt hing  loyal  or  that  pretends  to  be  true  in 
native  aughter  circles.  Under  the  head  of  "good 
of  the  order''  wen'  the  regulation  speeches,  gift 
presentations,  etc.  The  Grand  President  set  forth. 
as  usual,  the  various  i>lans  tnat  she  proposed  to  lay 
before  the  Grand  Parlor,  chief  of  which  is  the  re- 
building  of  the  Native  Daughter  Home  through  the 
contributions  of  the  members  individually  and  from 
the  Subordinate  Parlor  treasuries.  It  was  the  ex- 
pressed   wish    of   Grand    President    Peyton    that    no 


edged    Minerva  *a  hospitality,  ami  r -hoed  tin'  senti 

men  I  s  so  feelingly  expressed  by  t  In*  (irand  Secre 
tary  in  regard  to  the  rigid  thinking  and  honorable 
steadfastness  of  Minerva  Parlor  -its  unswerving 
Support  Of  principle  and  its  devotion  to  the  Order. 
She  then  paid  a  beautiful  tribute  to  (Irand  Presi 
dent  Peyton,  saying  that  when  she  herself  had  been 
(■rand  President  she  had  been  both  delighted  and 
impressed  by  the  sweet  and  gracious  marshal  at 
Joaquin  Parlor,  and  told  of  the  tender,  sympathetic 
acts  of  that  marshal,  now  Grand  President,  and 
made  an  earnest  plea  for  tender  consideration,  one 
for  another— a  willingness  to  forgive  and  forgot. 

The  (Irand  President  was  presented  with  a 
gorgeous  bunch  of  yellow  chrysanthemums,  which 
afforded  her  keen  delight.  To  the  D.  D.  ti.  P., 
Minnie  F.  Dobbin,  was  accorded  a  well -deserved 
recognition  for  her  faithful  services.  The  hall  was 
beautifully  decorated  in  green  and  yellow,  the  mem- 
bers being  all  in  white.  At  the  close  of  the  official 
visit,  Minerva  Parlor  served  refreshments  to  those 
who  chose  to  remain.  A  jolly  time  was  had,  and 
all  declared  this  to  be  one  of  the  most  instructive 
of   official    visits. 


MAMIE  G.  PEYTON,  of  Stockton 
Grand  President,  N.  D.  G.  W. 

one,  especially  the  grand  officers  present,  discuss 
any  of  the  recommendations  set  forth  by  the  head 
of  the  Order,  saying  that  these  recommendations 
were  for  the  consideration  of  the  Subordinate  Par- 
lor and  its  members  when  alone. 

Past  Grand  President  Mary  E.  rl.±iman,  a  beloved 
and  honored  member  of  Minerva  and  one  of  the 
aoblesl  women  in  the  Order — a  woman  wiio  never 
sways  from  what  she  believes  to  be  true  or  for  the 
best  interest  of  the  Oruer  oi  Native  Daughters  of 
the  Golden  West. — claimed  the  right  to  talk  upon 
the  Native  Daughter  Home,  stating  that  she  was  at 
home  in  her  own  Parlor,  and  that  she  knew  every- 
thing concern  mo-  the  matter  from  the  very  incep- 
tion of  the  idea.  In  her  usual  succinct,  clear  and 
convincing  style  she  then  made  a  masterly  address 
upon  the  subject,  declaring  that  the  title  "Our 
Home"  was  a  misnomer,  that  the  N.  D.  G.  W.  Home 
did  not  belong  to  the  Order  and  quoted  from  the 
proceedings  of  1903  in  which  May  B.  Wilkins,  then 
a  member  of  the  Board  of  Relief,  in  open  Grand 
Parlor  admitted  that  the  home  did  not  belong  to 
the  Order,  but  to  the  Board  of  Relief.  Much  inter- 
esting information  was  brought  out  in  a  friendly 
fraternal  discussion  which  ensued,  the  Worthy 
Grand  President,  (irand  Secretary  and  Past  Grand 
President  'iiilman  all  taking  an  active  part  in  the 
rapid  fire  of  questions  and  answer,  to  the  great  de- 
light and  eu.. .cation  or  all   present. 

Past  Grand  President  Eliza  D.  Keith  under  the 
good   of  the  Order  commended   the   work,  acknowl- 


Oro  Fino  on  the  Seventh. 

February  7th  was  the  night  of  the  official  visit 
of  Grand  President  Mamie  G.  Peyton  to  Oro  Fino 
Parlor,  No.  9,  N.D.G.W.  The  hall  was  most  beau- 
tifully decorated  for  the  occasion,  the  members  were 
all  arrayed  in  white,  and  every  effort-  was  made 
to  make  the  occasion  one  long  to  be  remembered  by 
all  those  present.  The  regular  work  was  performed 
for  the  benefit  oi  the  guest  of  honor,  the  olficial 
instructions  were  given,  presentations  of  gifts  were 
made  to  the  Grand  President,  D.D.G.P.  and  others, 
and  in  all  this  was  one  of  the  most  delightful  of 
evenings.  Many  visitors  were  present.  The  pre- 
sentation of  a  gift  from  the  Parlor  to  the  Grand 
Secretary  was  an  unexpected  pleasure  to  all,  and 
most  of  all  to  Miss  Frakes  herself.  Hannah  Nolan, 
past  president  of  the  Parlor,  presented  Miss  Frakes 
with  an  order  for  a  portable  electric  lamp  with  an 
irri descent  shade,  for  her  own  room.  Mrs.  Nolan 
said  that  it  was  the  desire  of  Oro  Fino  Parlor  to 
testify  in  some  slight  way  the  love  and  esteem  in 
which  it  held  the  Grand  Secretary,  as  not  only  did 
Oro  Fino  honor  the  Grand  Secretary  fj»r  her  sterling 
worth  and  nobility  of  character  as  a  woman,  nor 
for  her  efficiency,  acknowledged  by  all,  as  a  Grand 
■Secretary,  but  with  reference  to  what  the  Grand 
Secretary  had  done  for  Oro  Fino  Parlor.  She  re- 
ferred to  those  dark  days  of  discouragement  for 
every  fraternal  order  after  the  fire  and  spoke  of 
how  Oro  Fino  Parlor,  in  common  with  other  Par- 
lors, had  faced  serious  problems.  To  the  help,  en- 
couragement and  new  members  gained  by  the  Par- 
lor, through  the  efforts  of  Grand  Secretary  Laura 
J.  Frakes,  Oro  Pino  became  a  strong,  growing  Par-> 
lor.  Mrs.  Nolan  said  that  no  one  ever  made  the 
sign  of  distrees  to  the  Grand  Secretary  that  she 
did  not  at  once  respond;  that  she  had  so  lived,  that 
she  had  won  the  love,  honor  and  respect  of  every 
1 1  > y a  I    N a  t  i  v  e    1  >a  ugh  t e r. 

The  Grand  Secretary  was  deeply  touched  by  this 
testimonial  from  Oro  Fino  Parlor  and  responded 
most  feelingly,  thanking  the  Parlor  for  its  beautiful 
gift,  and  saying  it  had  been  a  pleasure  to  work  for 
and  with  Oro  t'ino.  Miss  Frakes  said  that  she  had 
always  been  happy  in  giving  her  best  to  the  Order 
and  to  the  individual  members — that  to  all  she  had 
ever  tried  to  be  helpful,  kind  and  true.  She  said 
that,  at  times,  she  wondered  if  it  was  always  worth 
while  "To  do  unto  others  as  you  would  that  they 
should  do  unto  you,"  but  that  a  demonstration  like 
this  proved  to  her  that  it  was  always  best  to  do 
right,  and  leave  the  rest  with  Him,  who  taught  us 
"to  love  one  another. " 

Past  Grand  President  Emma  W.  Lillie  spoke  at 
length  upon  the  work  of  the  Children 's  Agency — 
the  work  which  has  taken  hold  of  the  hearts  of 
the  people  of  California,  and  which  has  met  with 
such  generous  financial  support.  Mrs.  Lillie,  with 
simple,  unaffected  pathos,  told  the  story  of  the 
homeless  child  so  earnestly  that  it  brought  tears  of 
sympathy  to  many  an  eye  that  night.  She  also 
commended  Oro  Fino  Parlor  for  having  a  Mission 
Bell  sign-post  at  the  county  roadside,  where  it  is 
practically  the  first  to  welcome  the  traveler  enroute 
to  San  Francisco,  and  also  mentioned  the  courtesy 
of  Oro  Fino  Parlor's  presidents  in  acting  as  escorts 
to  the  Grand  President  on  nights  of  official  visits, 
a  courtesy  that  was  always  extended  to  a  Grand 
President  in  the  country,  but  not  often  thought  of 
in   the   city. 

D.D.G.P.     Gussie     Meyer's     face     beemed     with 
pleasure  as  she  listened  to  the  words  of  praise  given 
to  Oro  Fino  Parlor,  and  expressed  herself  delighted

Belasco  Forces  Much  Strengthened. 

Marjorie  Rambeau,  the  most  popular  leading 
woman  in  Los  Angeles,  has  cast  her  lot  with  the 
Los  Angeles  Belasco  stock  company,  and  will  add 
considerable  to  the  Lewis  S.  Stone  company  attrac- 
tions. Miss  Rambeau  made  her  initial  appearance 
at  the  Belasco  in  "The  Girl  in  Waiting,"  in  the 
role    of   Lillian    Tanner. 

The  week  commencing  February  27th,  Lewis  S. 
S'tone  and  the  Belasco  company  will  produce  Clyde 
Fitch's  play,  "The  Truth."  'This  is  said  to' be 
Fitch's  most  successful  play,  and  has  never  before 
been  presented  in  stock.  Marjorie  Rambeau  will 
be  given  a  part  where  she  will  have  an  opportunity 
to  do  the  most  powerful  and  vivid  acting  of  her  local 
career.  It  is  said  that,  had  the  author  of  "The 
Truth"  had  Miss  Rambeau  in  mind  when  writing 
his  play,  he  could  not  have  produced  a  role  better 
suited  to  her  full  capabilities  than  that  which  she 
will  assume  in  this  production.  Lewis  S.  Stone 
will,  of  course,  have  a  leading  part,  and  the  whole 
Belasco   company   should   appear   at   their   best. 


At  the  Los  Angeles  Theater. 
Without  doubt  the  most  popular  vaudeville  house 
in  Los  Angeles  is  the  Los  Angeles  Theater,  Sullivan 
and  Considine  's  house.  The  crowds  here  are  so 
great  that  larger  quarters  are  now  being  looked  for 
by  John  W.  Considine,  who  was  a  recent  visitor 
to  that  city.  The  weekly  bills  are  always  first- 
class,  and  the  public  show  their  appreciation  ac- 
cordingly. For  the  week  beginning  February  27th, 
the  list  of  attractions  will  include  the  following: 
The  three  Roehrs  in  their  thrilling  spectacle, 
"Looping  the  Loop  in  the  Revolving  Globe;" 
Frank  Hammond  and  Dorthy  Forrester,  in  merry 
melodies  and  humorosities;  Les  Plaetz  Lorella  sis- 
ters, in  dainty  and  daring  gymnastic  accomplish- 
ments; Stirling  and  Chapman,  Scotch  warblers,  in 
Highland  ballads;  Caron  and  Farnom,  acrobats  and 
grotesque  adepts;  Lilly  Dean  Hart  and  Wilfred 
Berrick,  in  "A  Thunderstorm,"  introducing  varied 
bits  of  musical  comedy;  Marguerite  Fry  ("The 
Pretty  Party  in  the  Pink  Pajamas"),  in  songs. 


In  California   Theatrical   Circles. 

Rumor  has  it  that  a  fine  new  theater  will  soon  be 
erected   in  Santa  Rosa. 

Ruth  St.  Denis  is  to  tour  the  State  in  a  series  of 
Hindu  and  Egyptian  dances.

street.

zona and  Colorado  gathered  in  Oakland'  in  conven- 
tion recently. 

The  new  Diepenbrock  theater  in  Sacramento  will 
open  to  stock  about  the  middle  of  March,  with 
Henry   McRae   in   charge. 

On  account  of  illness,  Emma  Calve,  the  famous 
operatic  contralto,  will  not  appear  in  California, 
having  canceled  all   her  American  engagements. 

When  the  new  Orpheum  opens  in  Los  Angeles  at 
an  early  date,  the  old  playhouse  will  be  used  for 
independent  traveling  shows,  under  direction  of 
Oliver    Morosco. 

Some  of  the  March  attractions  at  California  thea- 
ters will  be :  "  Silver  Threads,  '  "  Frederick 
Warde,"  "The  Merry  Widow,"  "The  Call  of  the 
Wild"  and  "Madame  Sherry.' 

San  Francisco  is  to  have  a  new  class  "A"  motion 
picture  theater  on  Union  street,  with  a  seating 
capacity  of  800.  Building  operations  will  soon  com- 
mence on  the  new  Alcazar,  to  be  located  on 
O  'Farrell   street. 

The  Clunie,  in  Sacramento,  will  close  for  five 
months  in  April,  and  undergo  extensive  alterations. 
There  is  talk  of  a  new  high-price  theater  iu  the 
Capital  City,  and  the  Orpheum  management  is  also 
said  to  be  looking  for  an  opening  there. 


"The  Real  Open  Door." 
That  the  theatrical  war  is  not  over  by  any  means 
is  amply  demonstrated  in  the  article  below,  which 


was  given  a  prominent  place  in  the  February  11th 
issue  of  the  New  York  Review,  under  the  caption, 
"The  Real  Open  Door": 

' ( Opponents  of  the  Messrs.  Shubert  have  been 
trying  to  make  capital  of  the  fact  that  H.  W.  Sav- 
age is  to  present  'Excuse  Me1  at  the  Gayety  Thea- 
tre, a  house  in  which  Klaw  &  Erlauger  are  inter- 
ested, by  asserting  that  Mr.  Savage  has  deserted 
them  and  gone  back  to  the  Syndicate.  The  only 
significance  in  the  event  is  that  it  is  further  proof 
that  the  Open  Door,  for  which  the  Messrs.  Shubert 
fought  so  long,  is  an  actual,  existing  thing.  Mr. 
Savage  and  all  other  managers  now  have  the  right 
to  book  their  plays  where  they  choose,  something 
they  did  not  have  a  year  ago.  At  that  tiine  Mr. 
Savage  could  not  book  his  plays  in  iShubert  thea- 
tres. Klaw  &  Erlanger  would  not  let  him.  Today, 
thanks  to  the  fight  begun  and  won  by  the  Messrs. 
Shubert,  he  can  accept  time  wherever  he  finds  it 
open.  Mr.  Brady  is  presenting  'The  Boss'  at  the 
Astor,  and  Liebler  &  Co.  are  offering  'Pomander 
walk'  at  WaUack's.  Neither  of  these  is  a  Shubert 
theatre,  although"  Mr.  Brady  and  Liebler  &  Co.  are 
Shubert  allies,  facts  which  go  further  to  show  that 
the  principle  battled  for  by  the  Shuberts  and  estab- 
lished by  them  is  the  big  factor  in  theatrical  busi- 
ness today."

of  Sacn snto,  both  members  of  the  Native  Sons. 


Mayor  Bert  Elworthy  of  Concord,  Contra  Costa 
County,  issued  :i  proclamation  making  Monday,  Feb 
mi; i lv  13th,  :i  holiday  in  honor  of  the  arrival  of 
(In-  first  car  over  the  Oakland  and  Antioch  rail- 
way, which  is  being  constructed  between  Oakland 
and  Antiocb.  Schools  were  closed,  business  was 
suspended,  and  when  the  6rs1  car  rolled  into  Con- 
cord it  was  greeted  by  the  local  band  and  2000  cit 
»izens  of  the  thriving  and  progressive  community. 
Even  the  sun,  which  had  been  hiding  behind  the 
clouds,  shone  forth  in  all  its  glory  to  give  a  warm 
welcome.  Many  people  from  Oakland  and  San 
Francisco  were  also  on   hand. 


The  car   was   in   charge  of  Superintendent   Stark

Ruby  Parlor  Officers  Installed. 
Murphys — Although  the  weather  was  very  in- 
clement, a  large  number  of  the  members  of  Ruby 
ParloTj  No.  46.  N.D.G.W.,  were  on  hand  to  witness 
the  installation  of  officers,  the  hall  having  been 
beautifully  decorated  for  the  occasion.  D.  D.  G.  P. 
Lilla  Bisbee  officiated  as  installing  officer  and  was 
assisted  by  Ethel  Segale,  Justine  Raggio,  Mary 
Stephens,  Emma  Sell,  Lorine  Mitchell  and  Ernie 
Swerrer  as  acting  grand  officers.  During  the  social 
session,  the  District  Deputy  was  presented  by  Rose 
Harrington,  on  behalf  of  the  Parlor,  with  a  beauti 
ful  bouquet  as  a  testimonial  of  esteem. 


INTERESTING    MEETINGS 

(Continued  from  Page  15,  '  lolumn  2) 

with    the   successful    efforts   of    the    Farloi    on    the 

t*\  iMii  Dg    of    i  in'    official    visit.      Sister    Meyers    was, 

like   the   Grand    President,    presented    with    a    token 

of  love  and   g 1   will   from   this  must   populai   and 

happy  Parlor,  the  president  being  the  honored  one 
to  make  the  presentations.  A  i  the  close  of  the 
Parloi  session,  all  were  invited  to  remain  and  par 
take   of   the   refreshments   ao   graciously   served    by 

tins     hospitable    Parlor. 

Grand  Vice  Presidenl  Anna  P.  Lacy  spoke  of  hei 
admiration    for   Oro    Pino    Parlor   and    its   splendid 

ritualistic  work;  of  the  fraternal  c 'tesy  accorded 

her  ai   all   times,  when  she  had  the  h< r  of  being 

iis   D.D.G.P,     She  spoke  of  the  beautiful   decora 
linns,  of  the  Bplendid  appearance  the   Parlor  made 
in  the  September  parade  in  the  black  and  gold  3ui1 
and  complimented  the  Parlor  upon  having  so  tnanj 
young   members  active   in   the   work,  and   upon   the 
activity   of   its'  original    members,   tin-   founders. 

I'ast     ( I  rand     President      El  i  /.a     D.     Keith     made     an 

amusing  reference  to  the  "Down  and  out  Club" 
of  the  I'ast  Presidents,  and  said  that,  as  for  her- 
self, she  was  like  the  glow  worm,  only  came  oul 
at  nights — nights  of  the  official  visits.  Miss  Keith 
then  spoke  upon  the  mission  of  the  Grand  President, 
and  said  that  only  one  who  had  been  a  Grand  Presi- 
dent could  really  understand  what  was  required  of 
the  head  of  the  Order.  Her  duties  lake  her  from 
her  home  and  her  closest  friends.  She  must  travel 
constantly,  rest  all  too  seldom,  be  up  night  after 
night  and.  what  is  hardest  of  all,  frequently  is  the 
recipient  of  tales  of  woe  and  complaints  which  de- 
press one  trying  only  to  think  well  of  ail  her  t'el 
low  members.  Miss  Keith  then  declared  that  often 
our  so-called  enemies  tin  us  the  most  service,  since 
our  friends  are  all  too  apt  to  be  pleased  with  what 
ever  we  do,  while  our  enemies  bring  out  the  besl 
that  there  is  in  us  and  by  their  incredulity  or  their 
opposition  compel  us  to  make  good — -thereby  help- 
ing us  to  reach  our  highest  development.  ' '  ( hir 
enemies  are  not  enemies  at  all,  but  valued  friends, " 
said  Miss  Kieth.  "and  after  all,  'tis  only  love  that 
makes  the  world  go  round."  She  concluded  her 
speech  with  a  few  remarks  upon  our  duty  to  each 
other  and  the  privilege  of  loving  and  serving  as 
Native  Daughters,  Miss  Keith  was  listened  to  with 
wrapt  attention,  was  frequently  applauded,  and  at 
the  close  was  highly  praised  by  the  W-orthy  Grand 
President,  who  said:  "Miss  Kieth  does  wrong  to 
call  herself  a  glow  worm — she  is  a  star — and  I 
want  to  say  that  I  thought  last  night  at  Minerva 
Parlor,  I  had  never  heard  Past  Grand  President 
Keith  make  a  finer  speech,  but  I  think  that  to-night 
she  has  spoken  even  more  beautifully,  and  "I  wish 
that  every  members  of  the  Order  could  have  heard 
her  words  on  love,  they  were  so  beautiful." 
Installation  at  La  Estrella. 

San  Francisco — January  28th,  witnessed  the  in- 
stallation of  the  following  officers  of  La  Estrella 
Parlor,  No.  80:  President,  Harriet  Tompkins;  past 
president,  Ruth  Whelan;  first' vice-president,  Mattie 
Smith;  second  vice-president,  Pauline  Buhr;  third 
vice-president,  May  Barry;  organist.  Birdie  Hart- 
man;  recording  secretary,  May  C.  Bildemann;  fi- 
nancial secretary,  Sophie  Asmus;  marshal,  Alma 
Buhr;  treasurer,  Emma  Thierbach;  outside  sentinel, 
Lola  Horgan;  inside  sentinel,  Hanna  Barry;  trus- 
tees— Nettie  Feldbusch,  Phoebe  Theal,  Dora  Wehr. 
D.D.G.P.  Leah  Williams  of  Sans  Souci  Parlor,  No. 
96  deserves  great  credit  for  the  able  manner  in 
which  she  performed  the  duties  of  her  office.  The 
Parlor  officers  were  letter  perfect  in  the  ritualistic 
work.  Installing  officers  were:  P.G.P.,  Julia  A. 
Steinbach,  Grand  Vice-President,  Anna  F.  Lacy; 
Grand  Marshal,  May  ( '.  Boldeman;  Past  Grand  Or- 
ganist, Agnes  M.  Troy;  Grand  Treasurer,  Grace 
Magner.  The  unique  decorations  of  California  pop- 
pies were  the  handsomest  seen  thus  far,  and  every- 
where could  be  heard  exclamations  of  praise.  This 
Parlor  is  on  record  for  the  originality  of  its  deco- 
rations. Many  and  beautiful  were  the  floral  gifts — 
all  were  remembered,  while  the  District  Deputy  and 
Grand  President  each  received  some  slight  token 
from  the  Parlor,  emblematic  of  good  will  and  es- 
teem. Ice  cream  and  cake  came  last,  and  was  much 
enjoyed  by  those  who  could  remain.  P.G.P.  Eliza 
D.  Keith  and  Kmma  W.  Lillie  sent  regrets,  the  for- 
mer being  absent  owing  to  the  serious  illness  of  her 
mother,  and  the  latter  being  down  south,  finding  a 
home  for  a  homeless  child.  Grand  Treasurer  Susie 
K.  Christ,  owing  to  a  previous  engagement,  was 
unable  to  be  present. 

Good  Meeting  at  San  Andreas. 

Sau  Andreas — Assisted  by  Emma  Leonard  and

Bisbee,  on  February  3rd,  installed  the  officers  of 
San  Andreas  Parlor,  X...  MM.  N.D.G.W.,  at  a  most 
delighl  t'ul  meel  ing.  Following  these  ceremonies, 
the  District  Deputy  made  some  timely  and  interest 
ing  remarks  concerning  the  Order's  work.  Several 
other  addresses  were  made  by  the  members,  after 
which  all  adjourned  to  the  banquet  hall,  where  a 
tempting    repast    was    served.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


March 


*     PROFESSIONAL 


Y  '1HE  TIME  THIS  ISSUE  OF  THE 
Grizzly  Bear  is  in  the  mail  the  base- 
ball season  of  1911  will  be  dawning 
in  California.  The  Red  Sox,  repre- 
senting Boston  in  the  American 
League,  will  be  here  and  will  divide 
into  two  squads,  one  taking  in  Los 
Angeles  and  Vernon  in  the  south 
and  the  other  contesting  with  San 
Francisco  and  Oakland  in  the  bay 
cities.  The  entire  bunch  will  arrive 
in  Los  Angeles  and  go  into  quarters 
at  Eedondo  Beach.  After  a  few'  days '  general  prac- 
tice, one  squad  will  depart  for  the  northern  part  of 
the  State,  and  the  other  will  remain  in  the  south- 
ern end. 

All  the  Pacific  Coast  League  clubs  have  filled  their 
positions  and  are  now  engaged  in  practice  work, 
prior  to  the  opening  of  the  season,  which,  it  is  pre- 
dicted, will  be  the  most  successful  in  baseball  cir- 
cles on  the  Pacific  Coast.  All  the  teams — Los  An- 
geles, Vernon,  San  Franciseo,  Oakland,  Sacramento 
and  Portland — have  gotten  together  stror-  aggre- 
gations of  players  of  the  national  game,  and  the 
contest  for  the  yjennant  is  sure  to  be  an  exception- 
ally fast  and  furious  one. 

Charles  Graham  of  the  Sacramentos  announces 
his  line-up  will  be  picked  from  the  following: 
Outfield,  Pond,  Van  Buren  and  Heister;  infield, 
Danzig,  Thornton,  Curtis,  O  'Rourke,  Zamloek,  Ler- 
ehen,  Pulin,  Shinn  and  Anderson;  pitching  squad, 
Nourse,  Daly,  xiiompson,  McLeod,  Baum,  Fitzgerald 
and  Whalen.  It  is  possible  also  that  Stricklett  will 
be  added  to  the  club  's  strength. 


Pacific   Coast   League   Notes. 

The  following  Sacramento  Club  players  will  ar- 
rive on  the  Red  Sox  sr^eeial:  Nourse,  Lerchen, 
O 'Rourke,  Anderson,  McLeod,  Dale,  Thompson, 
Pond   and   Curi.s. 

Pitcher  Bin  Harkins,  affectionately  called  "Horse- 
shoe Bill"  by  -.s  friends,  principally  beeause  he 
has  had  poor  luck,  has  been  sold  by  Oakland  to  the 
Scranton  Club  of  the  New  York  State  League  on 
an  optional  come  back. 

Patterson,  the  first-baseman  secured  by  Vernon 
from  Nashville,  formerly  was  with  the  Chicago 
White  Sox.  He  is  over  six  feet  in  height,  very  ag- 
gressive, and  should  prove  a  valuable  man  for  the 
Tigers. 

Hosp,  the  former  "Angel''  who  finished  the  sea- 
son with  Vernon  in  1910,  will  again  be  found  in  the 
utility  role  for  that  team,  and  unless  we  miss  our 
guess  he  will  have  displaced  some  regular  before  the 
season  is  far  auvanced.

SUPPOSE. 

(From  Our  Dumb  Animals.) 
As  you  treat  with  indifference  bird  and  beast, 

Because  you  are  big  and  strong, 
Are  you  sure  they  are  counted  among  the  least? 

That  you  are  not  acting  wrong? 

When  with  anger  or  selfishness  you  or  friends 

Illtreat  what  you  should  protect, 
Do  you  really  believe  that  God  defends 

Your  cruelty  or   neglect  ' 

And  when  you  pass  from  this  life  to  where 

Naught  evil  can  live  a  day, 
Because  of  the  love  the  angels  bear 

To   everything  alway, 

Are  you   sure  that  no  creature  that  crawls  or  flies 

Will  greet  you  with  lives  that  endure? 
And  that  you  dare  meet  their  accusing  eyes 

And  smile?     Are  you  quite,  quite  sure? 

— Mrs.  M.  Z.  Watrous,

geles-to-  v  enice  Marathon  race,  February  22nd,  run- 
ning the  distane  of  fourteen  and  three-tenths  miles 
in  1:45.  George  was  comparatively  unknown  and 
had  no  backers  in  the  contest.  He  is  said  to  have 
been  born  a  few  miles  from  the  Acropolis  at  Athens. 
The  race  started  from  the  new  Los  Angeles  Athletic 
Club  building.  Seventh  and  Olive  streets,  at  in 
o'clock  in  tne  morning,  and  there  was  an  immense 
crowd  on  hand.  The  day  was  a  perfect  one  for 
long-distance  running,  and  the  entire  course  was 
lined  with  automobiles,  while  at  the  finishing  point 
a  veritable  throng  cheered  ihe  runners  as  they  com- 
pleted the  course. 

The  official  summary  of  the  event  follows:  Peter 
George,  first,  time  1  :.45;  L.  V.  Davidson,  second, 
time  1:47;  W.  Steen,  third,  time  1:50;  McMurray, 
fourth,  time  1:53;  E.  Deitrich,  fifth,  time  2:00;  G. 
Ellis,  sixth,   time  2:01:15. 


Unknown  Greek  Wins  Marathon. 
Peter  George,   a  young  Greek,  won  the  Los  Ari- 


Immense  Crowd  Sees  Races. 

Ihe  Panama-Pacific  automobile  road  race  at  San 
Leandro,  February  22nd,  drew  out  a  crowd  esti- 
mated at  40, -<,  many  of  them  lining  the  course  at 

daybreak.  Bert  lMngley,  in  a  Pope-Hartford,  won 
the  free-for-all  race  (163.845  miles)  in  2h,  34m,  12s. 
C.  H.  Bigelow  in  a  Mercer  won  the  light  car  race 
(98  miles)  in  lh,  42m,  42s.  Charles  Merz  in  a  Na- 
tional No.  5  won  the  heavv  car  race  (152.922  miles) 
in  2h,  19m,  13  3-5s. 

The  race  was  a  success,  but  was  poorly  managed 
to  the  extent  that  the  spectators  were  permitted  to 
crowd  the  course.  There  were  no  very  serious  acci- 
dents, which  was  considered  remarkable,  as  the 
course  is  considered  the  most  dangerous  in  the  West.

After  Drunken  Automobilists. 
Drunken  automobile  drivers  will  be  severely  dealt 
with  in  future,  when  the  bill  now  before  the 
Legislature — and  which  bids  fair  to  pass  both 
houses — is  signed  by  the  Governor.  There  is  no 
doubt  but  that  such  a  measure  is  needed,  not  only 
as  a  protection  to  the  walking  public,  but  as  well 
in  justice  to  those  persons  who  operate  automobiles 
in  a  sane  manner.  While  there  are  comparatively 
few  drunken  chauffeurs,  those  few  being  much  dis- 
credited upon  the  many  who  are  eareful  drivers 
and  have  respect  for  the  rights  of  others.  The 
bill  provides  as  follows:  "Section  367e. — Any  per- 
son operating  or  driving  an  automobile,  motor  cycle 
or  other  motor  vehicle  who  becomes  or  is  intoxi- 
cated while  so  engaged  in  operating  or  driving  such 
automobile,  motor  cycle  or  other  motor  vehicle,  and 
who  by  reason  of  such  intoxication  does  any  act,  or 
neglects  any  duty,  imposed  by  law,  which  act  or 
neglect  of  duty  causes  the  death  of,  or  bodily  injury 
to,  any  person,  shall  be  punishable  by  imprisonment 
in  the  State's  Prison  not  exceeding  five  years,  or 
in  the  County  Jail  not  exceeding  one  year,  or  by 
fine  not  exceeding  $500,  or  by  both  such  fine  and 
imprisonment. ' ' 


Aviator  Solves  Difficult  Problem. 
At  San  Diego,  during  a  recent  aviation  meet, 
Glenn  H.  Curtiss  succeeded  in  solving  the  problem 
of  alighting  on  water  and  arising  again  in  an 
aeroplane,  in  the  presence  of  representatives  of 
the  army  and  navy.  AA'hen  Curtiss'  aeroplane  was 
brought  out  at  noon  of  the  day  of  the  test  and 
floated  on  the  shallow  water  between  Coronado  and 
North  Island,  it  was  equipped  with  hydroplanes  and 
a  new  arrangement  of  front  surfaces.  The  aviator 
climbed  into  the  seat  and  started  the  powerful 
motor,  when  the  aeroplane  scudded  up  the  bay  at 
a  forty-mile  clip  for  a  quarter  of  a  mile,  then 
lifted  out  of  the  water  and  rose  to  a  height  of 
fifty  feet.  Curtiss  brought  it  down  on  the  surface 
after  flying  half  a  mile  and  turned  around  as  easily 
as  a  motorboat.  Putting  on  his  full  power,  he 
rose  again,  this  time  to  a  heights  of  one  hundred 
feet,  sailed  out  over  the  bay  a  mile  from  the  start- 
ing place,  circled  around  neaT  the  revenue  cutter 
Bear  and  the  repair  ship  Iris,  and  landed  lightly  on 
the  water  in   front  of  his  hangar  on   shore. 


Hampton's  Magazine  Retracts  State-

It  is  interesting  to  note  the  text  of  retractions 
made  by  Hampton's  Magazine,  New  York,  and 
Cleveland  Moffett,  the  writer  of  an  unfounded 
charge  in  the  February  issue  against  the  Standard 
Oil  Company.  These  retractions  came  after  the 
bringing  of  libel  suits  for  $350,000  by  the  Oil  Com-

BENEFIT  ARRANGED  TO  MEET 

ADMISSION   DAY   DEFICIENCY. 

The  Admission   Day    Festival    Committee,  that    had 

in   charge  the   recent    Admission    Day  celebration   in 

San    Francisco,   will    hold  a    six  day  cirCUS   benefit,   by 

the  Al.  G.  Burns  three-ring  wild  animal  circus. 

The  affair  will  be  held  on  Mechanics  Institute  lot, 
corner  Haves,  Lark  in  and  Market  streets,  March 
14th  to  19th,  inclusive. 

The  benefit  is  held  for  the  purpose  of  raising  funds 
with  which  to  defray  the  financial  deficit,  resulting 
from  the  Admission  Day  Festival.  The  committee 
did  not  exceed  the  estimates  of  expense  on  that 
occasion,  but  although  assured  by  the  San  Francisco 
merchants  that  the  required  funds  would  be  forth- 
coming, was  disappointed  in  not  receiving  the  finan- 
cial aid  promised,  hence  the  deficit. 

It  is  the  desire  of  the  Festival  Committee,  of 
which  James  Rolph,  Jr..  is  chairman,  to  pay  all  the 
bills  outstanding,  dollar  for  dollar,  ami  it  is  hoped 
that  enough  will  be  realized  from  the  circus  to  make 
this   possible. 

It  is  incumbent  upon  every  loyal  Native  Son  and 
Native  Daughter  to  boost  the  circus — as  the  cause 
is  a  commendable  one — and  assist  in  making  it  a 
great  financial  success.  It  is  believed  the  San  Fran 
Cisco  merchants  will  do  their  part,  particularly  as 
the  Native  Sons  did  much  to  aid  in  securing  the 
Panama    Kxpositiou. 

Remember  the  dates — March  14th  to  19th,  in- 
clusive; remember  the  place — Mechanics  Institute 
lot.  corner  Hayes,  Larkin  and  Market;  and,  above 
all  else,  remember  the  cause,  and  be  sure  that  you 
are  among  the  boosters.

Mining  Department 


Conducted  by  CALVERT  WILSON 


UPERIOR  JUDGE  ROBERT  M. 
Clarke  of  Ventura  County,  on  Febru- 
ary 14th,  rendered  a  decision  in  a 
case  affecting  recent  decisions  re- 
garding location  of  oil  lands,  that 
will  be  of  much  interest  to  oil  men, 
especially  at  this  time,  when  the 
industry  is  in  a  state  of  unrest.  The 
case  at  bar  was  entitled  S.  R.  Smith, 
plaintiff,  vs.  Union  Oil  Company  of 
California,  a  corporation,  and  find- 
ings and  judgment  were  ordered  for 
plaintiff  in  accordance  with  views  expressed  by  the 
presiding  judge.  The  statement  of  facts,  as  set 
forth  in  the  printed  report  of  this  case,  are  given 
in  detail,  as  follows: 

"The  plaintiff  and  seven  associates,  all  of  whom 
were  citizens  of  the  United  States,  on  February 
5,  1910  through  an  agent,  J.  P.  Brunton,  took  steps 
to  locate  the  placer  mining  ground  described  as 
the  'Schley'  claim  in  the  amended  complaint  on 
file  herein.  Said  claim  is  upon  the  unsurveyed  pub- 
lic domain  of  the  United  States  in  Ventura  County 
and  in  what  is  generally  known  as  the  '  Little 
Sespe. '  The  location  notice  was  posted  on  the 
ground  by  the  agent  on  the  aforesaid  date  and  on 
February  28,  1910,  a  copy  thereof  was  recorded  in 
the  office  of  the  County  Recorder  of  Ventura 
County,  in  Book  19  of  Mining  Claims  at  page  255, 
and  coincident  with  jesting  the  notice  monuments 
were  placed  at  each  corner  of  the  claim.  On  March 
8,  1910,  plaintiffs7  seven  associates  or  co-locators 
joined  in  a  quit-claim  deed  to  the  plaintiff  of  said 
placer  mining  ground  wnich  was  thereafter  duly 
recorded  in  the  office  of  the  County  Recorder  of 
Ventura  County. 

"The  nature  and  extent  of  the  occupancy  of  the 
claim  by  plaintiff  and  his  associates  is  difficult  to 
determine  from  the  testimony.  The  occupancy  was 
by  and  through  Brunton,  as  agent  of  the  claimants. 
It  appears  that  he  placed  a  tent  on  or  near  the 
grounds  at  the  time  of  the  'paper  location.'  It 
further  appears  that  on  the  10th  of  March,  1910, 
when  H.  I.  Reynolds,  claimin"  rights  in  this  prop- 
erty derived  through  a  lease  of  same  by  the  Union 
Oil  Company  of  California  to  Mitchell  and  Slocum, 
went  upon  the  ground  he  found  Brunton  there,  who 
informed  him  that  he  was  there  to  protect  the 
property  and  that  some  other  people  had  taken  it 
over.  This  turn  of  affairs  was  unexpected  by  Rey- 
nolds, who,  with  associates  had  organized  a  com- 
pany lo  operate  cli?  lease  secured  by  Mitchell  nnd 
Slocum  from  the  Union  Oil  Company  of  California, 
defendant  herein.  Whereupon  negotiations  were 
entered  into  between  Smith,  the  plaintiff,  and 
Mitchell,  the  defendant's  lessee,  whereby  Reynolds 
and  his  associates  did  again  enter  upon  the  ground 
about  April  1,  1910,  located  a  place  for  a  well  to 
be  drilled  and  hauled  lumber  upon  the  ground  for 
which  had  been  expended  about  $1600. 

"Nothing  was  done  by  Reynolds  and  his  as- 
sociates thereafter  tending  to  the  development  of 
the  claim  and  they  eventually  sold  the  lumber. 
This  was  done  without  notifying  the  Union  Oil 
Company  of  their  intention  not  to  develop  the 
property  or  that  they  had  sold  the  lumber.  The 
total  expenditure  of  Reynolds  and  associates,  in- 
corporated as  Middle  Sespe  Oil  Company,  in  develop- 
ing the  property  was  $2,375,  including  the  $1600 
expended  for  lumber  as  aforesaid. 

"On  the  5th  day  of  October,  1910,  after  Rey- 
nolds and  associates  had  to  all  intents  and  pur- 
poses abandoned  the  field,  without  notice,  however, 
to  the  defendant  herein,  O.  J.  Stowe  entered  into 
agreement  in  writing  with  plaintiff,  whereby  Stowe 
agreed  to  organize  a  corporation  to  be  known  as 
Sowe  Light  Oil  Company,  with  an  authorized 
capital  of  $500,000  divided  into  five  hundred  thou- 
sand shares,  and  cause  to  be  issued  to  plaintiff 
seventy-five  thousand  shares  therein,  which  was  to 
be  the  consideration  for  the  transfer  of  the 
'Schley'  claim  to  the  proposed  corporation.  It 
was  further  stipulated  that  Stowe  or  the  corpora- 
tion should  go  into  immediate  possession  and  oc- 
cupancy of  the  claim  and  with  all  due  diligence 
proceed  with  the  drilling  of  a  well  to  a  depth  of 
two  thousand  feet,  or  to  such  less  depth  as  might 
be  necessary  to  find  oil  in  paying  quantities.  In 
a  few  days  thereafter  Stowe  went  upon  the  prop- 
erty, made  a  location  for  a  well,  purchased  the  lum- 
ber that  was  on  the  claim,  employed  a  rig  builder 
and  proceeded  to  build  a  rig,  bunkhouse  and  cook- 
house, as  well  as  purchased  rig  irons  for  a  standard 
drilling    outfit,    and    expended    more    than    $2,000. 


■Stowe  was  thus  proceeding  upon  the  claim  to  drill 
an  oil  well  pursuant  to  his  agreement  with  plaintiff 
when  this  action  was  commenced  on  November  25, 
1910,  by  plaintiff  against  defendant  to  quiet  title 
and  for  an  injunction,  the  defendant  having  a  few 
days  prior  thereto  entered  upon  the  property  for 
the  purpose  of  grading  a  rig  site  and  commencing 
operations  thereon. 

"This  identical  mining  ground  was  located  on 
March  5,  1883,  by  Richard  Gird  and  seven  associates 
or  co-locators,  all  of  whom  were  citizens  of  the 
United  States,  and  called  the  'Rawley'  claim. 
Their  location  was  made  by  posting  a  notice  on  the 
ground,  and  recording  a  copy  theerof  in  the  records 
of  the  mining  district  within  the  limits  of  which 
the  property  was  then  situate.  The  claim  was  duly 
marked  with  monuments  and  on  September  18,  1895, 
Gird  and  his  co-locators  joined  in  a  quit-claim  deed 
of  the  same  to  the  Sespe  Oil  Company,  and  by 
mesme  conveyance  the  rights  of  the  original  locators 
now  rest  in  the  Union  Oil  Company  of  California, 
the  defendant  herein,  who  is  also  in  occupancy,  has 
developed  and  is  still  developing  many  mining 
claims  in  the  'Little  Sespe'  district,  among  them 
being  the  '  Samson '  and  '  Shenandoah '  claims 
contiguous  to  the  'Rawley'  on  the  west;  the 
'  Syracuse '  on  the  east ;  the  '  Baltimore '  to  the 
south  and  'Arizona'  or  'Arcadia'  west  of  the 
'Baltimore.'  A  well  is  being  drilled  on  the 
'Samson'  claim  by  the  Stockholders  Oil  Company, 
who,  under  lease  from  the  defendant,  have  been 
operating  thereon  for  over  a  year,  encountering 
some  difficulty  in  sinking  the  well  but  they  have 
passed  through  sufficient  oil  sands  to  give  every 
indication  of  a  successful  well.  A  producing  well 
was  developed  upon  the  '  Arizona '  claim  by  the 
predecessors  in  interest  of  defendant  in  1889,  but 
after  pumping  for  some  time  the  well  was  aban- 
doned in  1900.  The  Union  Oil  Company  has  yearly 
expended  large  sums  in  keeping  the  roads  and  trails 
which  lead  to  the  above  mentioned  claims  and  all 
property  claimed  by  them  in.  the  'Little  Sespe' 
district  in  repair  so  that  ingress  and  egress  might 
be   had. 

"On  November  6th,  1909,  the  defendant  corpora- 
tion leased  to  L.  H.  Mitchell  and  Thomas  A.  Slocum, 
the  'Rawley,'  and  a  contiguous  claim,  for  a  period 
of  twenty  years,  containing,  among  other  provisions, 
a  clause  that  they  should  commence  actual  drilling 
for  oil  thereon  on  or  before  February  1,  1910  and 
carry  on  the  same  continuously  and  in  good  faith. 
It  was  also  stipulated  that  the  lessees  should  do 
all  the  assessment  work  on  the  claims  and  make 
the  necessary  affidavits  thereof.  Pursuant  to  the 
conditions  of  the  lease  the  lessee  did  some  work 
(a  rig  grade)  upon  the  southwest  corner  of  the 
'Rawley'  which  Slocum  in  his  affidavit  says  was 
of  the  value  of  $100.  This  work  was  done  in  De- 
cember, 1909.  No  drilling  or  other  development 
was  done  on  the  claim  under  the  lease  except  what 


was  dont  by  Reynolds  and  his  associates  herein- 
before set  forth. 

"No  discovery  has  been  made  by  either  plaintiff 
or  defendant  and  a  few  days  prior  to  the  com- 
mencement of  this  action,  when  Mr,  Grinnell,  the 
superintendent  of  the  Union  Oil  Company's  prop- 
erties in  Ventura  County,  learned  from  Mr.  Stowe 
that  his  development  was  not  being  done  under 
the  Mitchell  and  Slocum  lease,  but  under  his  con- 
tract with  Smith,  the  defendant  immediately  placed 
a  force  of  men  upon  the  claim  to'  begin  operations 
thereon.  This  I  believe  to  be  a  fair  statement  of 
the  facts  as  shown  by  the  evidence. ' ' 

The  Court  goes  at  length  into  the  findings  in 
the  case,  which  are  herewith  set  forth  in  syllabus: 

First:  YARD  DECISION;  RULINGS  OF  LAND 
DEPARTMENT  NOT  BINDING  ON  COURTS— 
While  in  the  case  neither  plaintiff  nor  defendant 
can  perfect  title  or  patent  the  entire  160  acres,  the 
locators  having  conveyed  claim  prior  to  discovery, 
the  ruling  of  the  land  department  is  not  controlling 
on  a  state  court  trying  the  right  to  the  possession 
of  a  mining  claim  between  adverse  claimants. 

Second:  ACT  OF  CONGRESS  OF  FEBRUARY 
12,  1903,  CALLED  "FIVE  CLAIMS  ACT":  DIS- 
COVERY NECESSARY  TO  INITIATE  CLAIM— 
"The  act  of  Congress  authorizing  assessment  work 
under  certain  conditions  upon  one  of  five  con- 
tiguous claims,  does  not  avoid  the  necessity  of  a 
discovery  upon  each  of  said  claims.  "Located"  as 
used  in  the  act  means  a  "valid  location"  which 
must  be  preceded  by  a   discovery. 

Third:  GOOD  FAITH  OF- LOCATOR;  INJUNC- 
TION— It  is  held  in  this  case  that  the  evidence 
shows  that  the  location  of  plaintiff  was  in  good 
faith  and  open  and  above  board,  and  while  dili- 
gently prosecuting  his  work  to  a  discovery  he  is 
entitled  to  an  injunction  restraining  the  re-entry 
of  defendant. 

In  concluding  his  decision,  Judge  Clarke  says: 
"The  court  finds  that  Smith's  entry  measures  up 
to  all  the  conditions  imposed  by  the  language 
quoted  and  through  Stowe  he  had  been  diligently 
prosecuting  the  work  toward  a  discovery  for  prac- 
tically six  weeks  prior  to  the  re-entry  by  defendant. 
Being  thus  in  the  rightful  occupancy  of  the  prop- 
erty he  is  entitled  to  the  relief  asked  for  by  his 
complaint.  While  the  plaintiff's  occupancy  in  the 
form  required  to  hold  the  location  had  only  ex- 
tended for  a  short  period  of  time,  as  against  the 
defendant,  who,  with  its  predecessors  in  interest, 
had  claimed  this  property  since  1883,  yet  I  believe 
that  he  is  entitled  to  the  equitable  relief  sought, 
and  that  the  defendant  should  be  enjoined  from 
further  disturbing  or  interfering  with  his  work  so 
long  as  he  continues  to  diligently  prosecute  the 
same  toward  discovery.  A  denial  of  this  relief 
would  at  once  place  valuable  property,  and  possibly 
human  lives,  in  peril  and  reduce  the  question  of 
possession  and  occupancy  to  a  situation  not  unlike

that  the  deadly  smoke  from  the  smelter  is  damag- 
ing crops  every  hour  of  every  day.  Experts  have 
been  employed  to  make  smoke  tests,  and  the  farmers

and  for  many  years  was  an  enthusiastic  and  hard

by  President  Shirley  Bright,  D.D.G.P.  T.  B. 
Merry  and  John  Anderson  of  Arrowhead  Parlor. 
There  was  a  good  program  of  music,  songs  and

joyable  session. 


DELEGATES  FCR  GRAND  PARLOR. 

The  latter  part  of  June,  the  Grand  Parlor  will 
meet  in  annual  session  at  Santa  Cruz,  where  prep- 
arations are  now  under  way  looking  to  the  delegates' 
entertainment.  During  the  month  of  March, 
Subordinate  Parlors  are  required  to  elect  their 
delegates  to  the  Grand  Parlor,  and  on  this  ac- 
count considerable  activity  will  be  shown  in  all 
the  Parlors.  In  this  connection,  it  is  well  to  bear 
in  mind  the  Grand  Parlor  provision  relative  to 
representation  therein,  as  set  forth  in  Section  2, 
Article  III,  Constitution  of  the  Grand  Parlor: 
"Each  Parlor  shall  be  entitlel  to  one  delegate  at 
large,  and  one  additional  delegate  for  each  one 
hundred  members  or  fraction  of  one  hundred  mem- 
bers over  fifty  at  the  time  of  the  election.  Such 
delegates  shall  be  nominated  and  elected  during  the 
month  of  March,  by  their  respective  Parlors.  No 
brother  shall  be  elected  a  delegate  from  any  sub- 
ordinate Parlor  unless  he  shall  have  been  a  member 
of  the  Order  at  least  one  year,  unless  all  qualified 
members  have  declined,  and  unless  in  good  stand- 
ing at  the  time  of  his  nomination  and  election; 
provided,  that  in  Parlors  that  have  been  organized 
less  than  one  year  any  brother  in  good  standing 
shall    be    eligible." 


New  Members  C  oining  In. 
Selma — Selma  Parlor,  No.  107,  had  a  big  time 
February  loth,  when  three  candidates  were  in- 
itiated, the  occasion  being  followed  by  a  "stag" 
banquet.  The  Parlor  has  an  active  membership, 
and  is  the  most  successful  fraternal  organization 
here.  New  members  are  constantly  being  added. 
On  the  20th  the  Parlor  members  were  guests  of 
Los  Amigos  Parlor.  No/  1S4,  N.D.G.W.,  at  a 
banquet. 


Redlands   Gaining    Members. 

Redlands — Manv  members  were  added  to  the  roll 
of  Redlands  Parlor,  No.  168,  February  16tfi.  the 
result  of  work  on  the  part  of  Grand  Organizer 
Frank  A.  Dugan.  The  initiatory  team  of  Redlands 
Parlor  exemplified,  the  ritual  in  a  very  commend- 
able manner.  Many  native  sons  have  signified  their 
intention  to  affiliate  with  the  Parlor,  and  the  num- 
ber of  applications  on  file  warrants  the  assertion 
that  the  ritual  team  will  be  kept  busy  at  every 
meeting  for  some  time  to  come.  The  meeting  the 
16th  was  one  of  the  best  attended  in  the  Parlor's 
history,  there  being  present  in  addition  to  the  Par- 
lor members,  a  large  delegation  from  Arrowhead 
Parlor  of  San  -uernardino,  as  well  as  a  goodly 
representation  of  Los  Angeles  natives.  Refresh- 
ments were  served  following  the  meeting,  at  "which 
Frank  L.  Isbell,  the  ever  energetic  secretary  of 
Redlands  Parlor,  officiated  as  toastmaster.  Several 
of  the  visitors  made  remarks,  congratulating  the 
Parlor  and  especially  its  corps  of  officers. 

On  February  2nd,  Redlands  Parlor  had  an  open 
meeting  and  smoker,  to  which  eligibles  were  espe- 
cially invited,  and  many  responded.  Ever  anxious 
to  assist  the  neighboring  Parlor,  Arrowhead  of  San 


Grand  President  at  Long  Beach. 
Long  Beach — Grand  President  paniel  A.  Ryan 
and  Grand  Trustee  Robert  M.  Clarke  were  guests 
of  honor  at  the  joint  installation  of  Los  Angeles 
('ounty  Parlors  here,  January  29th.  The  affair  was 
held  in  the  ballroom  of  Hotel  Virginia,  and  al- 
though it  was  an  exceptionally  stormy  night,  there 

Resolved,  That  the  Order  of  the  N  ative 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  through  its  repre- 
sentatives assembled  in  Grand  Parlor  at  Lake 
Tahoe,  commend  the  efforts  of  the  Manu- 
facturers' and  Producers'  Association  of 
California  in  its  efforts  to  bring  about  the 
patronizing  of  articles  manufactured  in  Cali- 
fornia, and  the  consumption  of  California's 
products  and  manufactures,  thus  giving  em- 
ployment to  a  large  number  of  people,  devel- 
oping resources  and  the  prosperity  of  Cali- 
fornia, it  being  one  of  the  principal  aims  and 
ojjects  of  the  order  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West  to  give  aid  and  assistance 
to  any  subject  which  makes  for  the  better- 
ment and  upbuilding  of  our  native  State. —

was  a  goodly  attendance  of  members  and  their 
lady  friends,  as  well  as  man}-  of  the  hotel  guests, 
who  were  especiallv  invited  to  hear  about  the 
Native  Sons.  D.D'.G.P.  Edgar  McFadyen  acted 
^as  installing  officer  and,  assisted  by  D.D.G.P. 
William  1.  Traeger  as  grand  marshal,  inducted  the 
several  officers  of  the  eight  Parlors  into  office.  Fol- 
lowing these  ceremonies.  Grand  President  Ryan  de- 
livered an  address  that  won  great  applause  from 
the  assemblage.  There  being  many  people  from 
other  states  present,  Mr.  Ryan  laid  particular  stress 
upon  the  aims  and  objects  of  the  State  organiza- 
tion, and  that  his  words  will  have  good  efr'ei-t.  all 
conceded.  Following  the  Grand  President,  Grand 
Trustee  Clarke  made  a  short  address.  At  the  con- 
clusion of  these  exercises,  the  spacious  ballroom 
floor  was  cleared,  and  dancing  was  enjoyed  until 
midnight.  During  the  evening,  light  refreshments 
were  served.  The  affair  was  under  the  direct  charge 
of  Grizzly  Bear  Parlor.  No.  239,  and  the  manage- 
ment of  the  Virginia  Hotel  placed  that  elegant 
hostelry    at    their    disposal    for    the    event. 


January  24th,  and  was  a  special  guest  of  the  Parlor 
at  an  elaborate  banquet  preceding  the  Parlor  ses- 
sion. The  feature  at  the  banquet  board  was  the 
proposal  and  unanimous  adoption  of  this  resolution: 
"'Resolved,  That  we,  the  members  of  Observatory 
Parlor,  No.  177,  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West, 
here  assembled,  representng,  as  we  do,  the  senti- 
ment of  the  entire  organization  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West,  do  hereby  urge  upon  William 
H.  Taft.  President,  of  the  United  States,  the  claim 
of  the  Golden  West  to  have  its  candidacy  for  the

;i  flourishing  condition,  the  membership  roll  shows 
;i  remarkable  growth,  and  the  prospects  for  the

success,  among  them  being  the  committee  on   home 

less   children,   who   are   doing   si ■    noble   work    in 

that  cause.  A  subscription  list  was  commenced  by 
i  hen i  a  short  time  ago,  and  $30  was  realized  and 
will  be  devoted  to  ;i  fund  set  aside  for  the  home- 
less children.  The  social  features  ,,f  the  Parlor  are 
under  the  supervision  of  three  vice  presidents.  A.

are  past  masters  in  the  line  of  providing  a  splen- 
did programme  of  entertainment  for  the  members, 
on  the  third  Tuesday  of  each  month.  They  are  now 
busily  engaged  in  arranging  a  series  of  entertain- 
ments for  the  ensuing  months  with  a   view   to  pro 

inoting  a   feel  in  y;  of  y I  fellowship  among  the   Na 

tives.  Following  are  the  Parlor  officers:  President, 
Leon  Pewig;  first  \  ice-president,  A.  L.  Jackson;

Native   Daughters 


Official  Organ  a  Welcome  Messenger. 

San  Francisco — The  following  officers  of  Twin 
Peaks  Parlor,  No.  185,  have  been  installed  by  D.D. 
G.P.  Alma  Romus  of  Orinda  Parlor,  No.  56:  Past 
president,  Emma  Kelly;  president,  Delia  Konefzke; 
first  vice-president,  Hattie  Cate;  second  vice-presi- 
dent Bessie  Monoghan;  third  vice-president,  Frieda 
Paul;  organist,  Julia  Juki;  recording  secretary,  May 
Robinson;  financial  secretary,  Mollie  Shannon; 
marshal.  Hazel  Cavanagh;  treasurer,  Sarah  Dough- 
erty; outside  sentinel,  Stella  Hanlan;  inside  senti- 
nel, Marcella  Nelan;  trustees — Loretta  Boyle,  Lotta 
Hampton,  May  Hurley.  After  installation,  flowers 
were  presented  to  the  officers  installed,  also  to  Past 
Grand  President  Ariana  W.  Stirling,  Grand  Secre- 
tary Laura  J.  Frakes,  Grand  "Vice-President  Anna 
F.  Lacey,  D.D. G.P.  Alma  Remus  and  several  other 
visitors.  Miss  Remus  was  presented,  in  addition 
to  flowers,  with  a  handsome  hand-painted  plate.  The 
retiring  president,  Emma  Kelly,  was  presented  with 
a  handsome  gift  from  the  Parlor,  as  a  token  of  ap- 
preciation for  valuable  services  rendered.  Mrs. 
Koenitkzie,  founder  of  the  Parlor,  made  the  presen- 
tation speech,  and  there  was  hardly  a  dry  eye  when 
this  most  eloquent  speaker  closed  her  remarks. 
Sister  Kelly  was  so  overcome  that  she  could  barely 
say,  "thank  you. " 

An  agreeable  surprise  of  the  evening  was  the  ap- 
pearance of  Past  Grand  President  Ariana  W.  Stir- 
ling who  said,  in  the  course  of  her  remarks,  that 
living  as  she  did  far  away  from  any  Parlor,  or  even 
Native  Daughters,  with  whom  she  could  converse, 
The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  was  a  welcome  visitor 
to  her  home.  It  kept  her  in  touch  with  all  the  Par- 
lors and  their  work,  and  without  this  splendid  mag- 
azine she  would  be  in  absolute  ignorance  of  the 
workings  of  the  Order.  Reading  the  accounts  of  the 
"doings"  of  each  Parlor,  she  could  picture  in  her 
mind,  the  little  lodge-room,  with  the  faithful  few 
in  attendance,  and  recall  the  smiling  faces  of  many 
of  whom  she  had  met  while  on  her  official  visits 
as  Grand  President.  To  one  so  isolated  as  she,  The 
Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  was  indeed  a  messenger  from 
each  Subordinate  Parlor — a  letter  most  welcome. 

Grand  Secretary  Laura  J.  Frakes,  in  the  course  of 
her  remarks,  said:  "When  we  hear  such  nice  things 
said  of  our  official  organ,  and  know  that  our  sisters 
far  away  have  no  other  means  of  hearing  from  us 
or  keeping  in  touch  with  our  work,  should  we  not 
try  to  send  something  to  the  magazine  each  month — 
something  to  show  that  we  are  alive  and  working? 
Let  us  try.  If  you  cannot  send  it  direct  to  The 
Grizzly  Bear  Magazine,  send  it  to  me  and  I  will  see 
that  it  reaches  its  destination  in  time  for  print." 


Assists  Worthy  Causes. 

Jackson — The  officers  of  Ursula  Parlor,  No.  1, 
were  installed  with  those  of  Excelsior  Parlor,  No.  31, 
N.S.G.W.,  January  18th,  about  150  being  present, 
including  members  of  both  Parlors  as  well  as  visit- 
ing members  from  the  various  Parlors  in  the  county. 
All  the  Parlors  of  Amador  County  were  represented 
in  the  Native  Daughters  team  of  Grand  Officers 
that  performed  the  installation  ceremony.  The  oc- 
casion was  a  .very  pleasant  one  for  all  present,  and 
Emma  Boarnian-Wright,  D.D.  G.P.  for  Amador 
County,  performed  her  official  duties  in  such  a  way 
as  to  win  praise  from  all  present.  "Ursula  Parlor  has 
contributed  five  dollars  to  the  Children's  Agency  for 
the   benefit   of   the   homeless   children.     The  Parlor

Ball  Nets  Big  Sum. 
Bakersfield — Hundreds  of  gaily  costumed  dancers 
attended  the  New  Year  ball  given  by  Tejon.  Parlor. 
The  affair  was  one  of  the  most  successful  ever 
given  in  Bakersfield.  The  hall  was  beautifully  dec- 
orated with  a  profusion  of  flags,  bunting — in  the 
colors  of  the  Order — Christmas  greenery  and  holly 
berries.  The  music  was  the  subject  of  much  flatter- 
ing discussion,  the  numbers  being  among  the  new- 
est and  most  entrancing  of  dance  selections.  The 
gorgeous  decorations  and  fanciful  costumes  made  a 
scene  of  great  brilliancy.  The  grand  march  at  un- 
masking was  led  by  D.D.G.P.  Annie  C.  Foran,  rep- 
resenting "California"  in  a  costume  of  golden  satin 
and  poppies  that  portrayed  the  leading  industries  of 
our  State,  and  J.  E.  Fifield  in  the  character  of  a 
typical  miner  of  J49.  These  characters  were  most 
appropriate  for  the  occasion  and  were  awarded  the 
two  first  prizes.  Many  beautiful  and  original  cos- 
tumes were  worn  and  nine  valuable  prizes  were  dis- 
tributed. Roman  punch  was  dispensed  amid  a  bower 
of  beauty  by  California's  fairest  daughters.  The 
proceeds  of  the  ball  netted  $187.70  and  the  Native 
Daughters  are  being  complimented  for  their  splen- 
did management  of  the  affair.

United  Effort  Wins  Success. 
Oakland — The  membership  of  Aloha  Parlor,  No. 
106,  is  growing  in  a  splendid  manner.  As  a  result 
of  the  members'  united  efforts,  Aloha  Parlor  has 
made  a  record  that  places  it  in  the  foremost  ranks 
of  women's  fraternal  societies  in  Alameda  County. 
The  social  and  financial  aspects  of  the  organization 
are  likewise  satisfactory,  due  largely  to  the  influ- 
ence of  Mrs.  A.  L.  Frick,  the  financial  secretary, 
who  is  an  indefatigable  worker  in  the  interest  of 
the  Gruer.  Mrs.  C.  W.  Fairchild,  president,  another 
active  worker  in  the  fraternal  world,  is  deserving 
of  much  praise,  and  her  efforts  are  very  commend- 
able. Aside  from  serving  on  various  committees,  she 
has  held  a  number  of  prominent  offices,  the  varied 
duties  of  which  were  performed  in  a  manner  which 
won  for  her  the,  highest  office  in  the  Parlor.  The 
social  affairs  of  Aloha  are  under  the  direction  of 
Gladys  B.  Sunkel,  May  Sullivan  and  Charlotte 
Scofield,  who  have  arranged  for,  and  are  now 
giving  a  series  of  fine  entertainments.  Gussie 
Broderick,  Ella  Oakes  and  Virginia  Wilson,  trus- 
tees of  the  rarlor,  are  doing  splendid  work,  and 
report  the  condition  of  the  Order  as  excellent.  The 
Parlor  officers  are:  Elizabeth  Haggard,  junior  past 
president;  Mrs.  C.  W.  Fairchild,  president;  Gladys 
B.  Sunkel,  first  vice-president;  May  Sullivan,  sec- 
ond vice-presiuent;  Charlotte  Scofield,  third  vice- 
president;  Margaret  Stevens,  marshal;  Miss  L. 
Hudson,  inside  sentinel;  Emily  Mitchell,  outside 
sentinel;  Mrs.  A.  L.  Frick,  financial  secretary;  Min- 
nie Martin,  recording  secretary;  Victory  Derrick, 
treasurer;  Gussie  Broderick,  Ella  Oakes  and  Vir-

rosa  meaning  beautiful  roses,  and  right  well  has  it 
been  named,  for  seldom  have  we  seen  so  many 
sweet  buds  as  were  present  that  evening.  The  little 
president  was  an  ideal  presiding  officer,  and  the 
ritualistic  work  was  well  done,  the  grand  president 
remarking,  at  the  rlose.  that  she  had  never  Been 
it  better  performed.  Dr.  Winnifred  Byrne,  the 
organizer  of  the  Parlor,  was  present,  and  one  need 
only  see  the  many  little  attentions,  courtesies,  etc., 
shown  her,  to  realize  her  popularity  in  Linda  Rosa 
Parlor.  Minnie  F.  Dobbin  of  Sans  Souci  I 'ail  or.

March 


Los  Angeles  Native  Sons  to  Have  Handsome  Building 


~  IIMJJH     UMIJiSfilllllll  '       6lll£L'.' 


J 


The  latter  part  of  May  the  five  Parlors  of  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West  in  Los  Angeles  will  meet 
in  their  own  hall,  a  perspective  drawing  of  which, 
by  the  architects,  ^isen  &  Son,  of  Los  Angeles,  is 
shown  above.  The  building  is  now  being  erected 
on  the  south  side  of  West  Seventeenth  street,  be- 
tween Main  and  Hill,  at  a  cost  of  $14,000,  by  the 
JNative  Sons'  Hall  Association  of  Los  Angeles,  a 
corporation,  the  stock  of  which  is  held  by  the 
several  Native  Son  Parlors  and  individual  members 


of  the  Order  in  Los  Angeles.  The  new  structure 
covers  the  whole  of  a  lot  50x150  feet  and  will  be 
two  stories  in  height,  with  full  provision  so  that  a 
complete  third  story  can  be  added  in  the  future  as 
soon  as  the  needs  of  the  Parlors  demand  the  same. 
The  exterior  of  the  building  is  of  Spanish  renais- 
sance architecture,  and  will  be  plastered  over  a 
brick  exterior  and  tinted  a  light  cream  color.  The 
cornice  is  of  red  tiling  and  will  harmonize  with  the 
general  color  scheme.     On  either  side  of  the  upper

corners  will  be  a  little  arch,  with  a  bell  set  in 
same.  Stucco  ornamentation,  including  three  griz- 
zly bears,  will  tend  to  ornament  the  front  of  the 
building.  The  front  exterior',  part  way  up,  will  be 
laid  in  glazed  tile  of  pure  white. 

On  the  first  floor  will  be  a  large  billiard-room  and 
club-room,  a  neat  entrance,  offices,  etc.,  together  with 
a  store.  The  second  floor  will  comprise  an  audi- 
torium 50x80  feet,  complete  with  stage  and  set- 
tings; a  lodge  hall  35x35  feet,  together  with  a' 
club  and  card-room;  kitchen  department;   and  ade- 


JOHN  T.  NEWELL,  President 

quate  rooms  will  also  be  provided  for  the  con- 
venience of  men  and  women,  together  with  complete 
lodge  lockers,  etc.  Hardwood  floors  will  be  run 
throughout  the  second  floor.  The  auditorium  will  be 
of  attractive  design,  decorated  walls,  and  excellent 
lighting.  A  special  feature  has  been  provided  for 
the  proper  ventilation  of  the  halls,  which  will  be 
accomplished  by  electrical  exhaust  fans,  placed  in 
large  ceiling  ventilators.  The  club-rooms  will  be 
lined  on  three  sides  witn  large  curio  cases,  con- 
taining an  interesting  collection  of  early  California 
relics — which  at  present  comprises  some  five  thou- 
sand or  more  valuable  and  unique  exhibits,  rich 
in  associations  of  the  old  days  of  California  and 
closely  linked  with  California's  wonderful  history. 

The  Native  Sons'  Hall  Association  of  Los  An- 
geles was  organized  some  four  years  go,  and  after 
several  profitable  speculations  in  real  estate,  bought 
the  present  lot  as  the  site  for  the  erection  of  the 
new  hall.  The  officers  of  this  body  are:  J.  T. 
Newell,  president;  J.  D.  Hunter,  vice-president;  S. 
Lazard,  treasurer,  and  Theo.  Herzog,  secretary. 
And  these,  together  with  Bert.  L.  Farmer  and  J. 
N.  O.  Eech,  comprise  the  board,  of  directors.  They 
have  given  much  time  to  the  undertakings,  all 
serving  without  any  compensation  whatever. 

It  is  intended  to  have  an  elaborate  dedication 
service  upon  the  completion  of  the  new  building. 
The  furnishings  of  all  nails  and  rooms  will  be  in 
keeping  with  the  idea  to  make  the  Los  Angeles 
Native  Sons'  home  attractive,  cosy,  and  a  place 
where  all  members  of  the  Order  can  feel  perfectly 
welcome   to  come  and  bring  their  friends.

In  Memory  of  Deceased 

Pioneers  of 
Donner  Party  Fame 

(FROM  A  SPECIAL  CORRESPONDENT.) 

ULLED     BY     THE     SOFT,     SWEET 
music   of  the  beautiful   pines   which 

/.^A  grow    tall    and    stately    in    the    quiet 

f'^'flL  little  cemetery  of   Fori    Bragg,   Men- 

docino i  iounty,  are  peacefully  rest- 
ing the  remains  of  one  wb.o,  in  the 
days  of  her  young  womanhood,  was 
associate*!  with  the  early  history  of 
our  Golden  State — Mrs.  Sarah  A.  C. 
Foster,  one  of  the  noble  women  of 
the  ill  fated  Donner  Party.  Not  far 
J  from  this  grave  reposes  another, 
whose  name  should  be  remembered  and  counted 
among  the  heroes  of  California.  Here  lies  Britton 
Greenwood  who,  at  the  risk  of  his  own  life,  guided 
a  relief  party  over  the"  storm-swept  Sierras  to  aid 
the  emigrants  who  were  prisoners  at  Donner  Lake 
during    the    terrible    winter   of    1S46. 

Mrs.  Sarah  A.  C.  Foster  was  born  in  South  Caro- 
lina, November  4.  L826.  Her  maiden  name  was 
Murphy,  and  at  an  early  age  she  married  Wm.  G. 
Foster.  Early  in  the  spring  of  1846  Mr.  and  Mrs. 
Foster,  with  their  infant  son,  George,  and  Mrs. 
Foster 's  widowed  mot  her,  Mrs.  Lavina  Murphy, 
and  her  family,  joined  the  Donner  Party  en  route 
for  California.  The  Murphy  family  consisted  of 
the  mother,  John  L..  Landrum,  Lemuel,  Mary,  Wil- 
liam, Simon  and  two  married  daughters,  Mrs.  Fos- 
ter and  Mrs.  Harriet  i  ike.  Mrs.  Pike  and  her  hus- 
band. Wm.  M.  Pike,  and  two  small  children  were 
also    mem  tiers   of    the    party. 

This    greal    wagon    t rain    comprising    the    Donner 

Party,  which   is  said  to  have  I n  at  one  time  two 

miles  long,  moved  slowly  along  on  its  western  jour- 
ney.    Troubles    incident    to    such    a    trip    were    me 

with,  but    the   real    Trials   commenced    when   this  over- 
land   train    was    divided,    the    larger    number 
by    way    of    Fort    Wall    and    reaching    California    in 
safety.     Eighty-seven   persons,  with  Geo.   Donner  as 
captain,    toofc    the    Hastings    cut-off   on    July    28th, 
being  advised  that  by  so  doing  300  miles  would  be 
■ .  ed   to  be   I  bei  t  fata)  step, 
party   consisted   of   the    families   of   George 
D    ■       i.      Jacob      Donner,      James    F.    Reed,    F.    W. 
Breen,  Wm.   Eddy,  Lavina  Murphy, 
Wm.    Met  ute hen.    h.   K<  I   others. 

and  hardships  were  encountered  from  the  first.  The 
road  was  almost  impassable  and  in  places  had  to  be 
filled  in  for  the  wagons  to  pass  over,  and  thus  much 
time  was  lost.  Theii  cattle  scattered,  and  many 
were  never  found;  provisions  were  gi       i  _      »w,  but 

destination    was    far    ahead.       Late    in    Ocl 


1846,  i  tie  emigrants  reached  Donner  Lake.  Tin;, 
were  in  a  pitiful  condition,  cold,  exhausted  and 
hungry,  with  snow  all  about   them;   winter  bad   set 

in     a     month    earlier     than     usual.       Trial     alter     trial 

had  been  made  in  cross  the  mountains,  but  as  the 
storms  continued,  their  condition  became  worse, 
and  it  was  imperative  that  something  must  tie  done, 
or  all  would  die, 

The  "Foloru  Hope." 

A  company  railed  the  "Folorn  Hope"  was  or- 
ganized, and  an  attempt  made  to  cross  the  moun- 
tains on  rudely  constructed  snowshoes  and  then  press 
on  to  Sutter'--  Port  to  obtain  relief  for  their  dear 
ones.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Foster  and  Mrs.  Pike,  now  a 
widow — -her  husband  having  been  accidentally  shot 
by  Mr.  Foster  during  the  trip— were  in  this  party. 
These  young  mothers,  also  Mrs.  McCutchen,  left 
behind  their  nursing  babes,  feeling  that  only  by 
this  effort  to  reach  assistance  could  their  darlings 
be  saved.     They   never  saw  their  babes  again. 

The  sufferings  of  those  who  went  ahead  were  as 
dreadful  as  those  of  the  ones  left  behind.  Lemuel

General  California  Information. 


The  Native  Sons  of  Alder  Glen  Parlor,  No. 
200,  of  Fort  Brags,  realizing  that  the  daring 
deeds  of  bravery  and  self-sacrifice  as  ex- 
hibited by  the  courageous  and  undaunted 
Pioneers  are  dessrving  of  recognition,  have 
decided  to  take  action  in  memory  of  two  such 
who  now  lie  buried  in  that  Mendocino  County 
cemetery. 

An  entertainment  will  be  given  on  the  even- 
ing of  April  22nd,  the  proceeds  to  go  toward 
a  fund  from  which  will  be  erected  enduring 
testimonials  of  love  and  reveration  for  Mrs. 
Sarah  A.  C.  Foster  and  Britton  Greenwoood. 
When  these  monuments  are  in  readiness,  they 
will  be  dedicated  with  proper  ceremony,  and 
thus  will  the  Native  Sons  honor  the  memories 
of  a  brave  Pioneer  Mother  and  Pioneer 
Father. 

Tickets  for  the  benefit  have  been  placed 
at  fifty  cents.  You  may  be  unable  to  attend, 
but  you  can  surely  contribute  your  mite  to 
this  worthy  cause.  Henry  W.  Little,  secretary 
of  Alder  Glen  Parlor,  will  receive  all  moneys, 
if  sent  to  him  at  Fort  Bragg. 


it  had  been  thirty-two  -lays  since  they  left  Donner 
hake.  A  relief  party  was  quickly  organized  and 
t hey  reached  Donner  Lake,  where  frightful  scenes

were  made,  and  each  time  members  of  the  doomed 
party  were  taken  forward,  but  it  was  not  until  the

the  "Folorn  Hope.''  twice  with  the  third  relief 
party  and  twice  with  the  fourth  relief  party.  Mrs. 
Murphy  and  her  son  Landrum  were  among  the 
number   who  perished. 

Grandma    Foster. 

Seven  children  were  born  to  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Fos- 
ter, three  of  whom  are  now  living— Mrs,  (ieorgie 
Powel]  of  Sac  Franciseo,  Mrs.  Minnie  Marble  of 
Oakland,  and  Mrs.  .).  1".  Whipple  of  Los  Angeles. 
Seventeen  grandchildren.  twenty -three  great - 
grandchildren  and  one  great-great-grandchild  are 
living.  Mr.  Foster  gave  his  name  to  Foster's  Bar, 
on  the  Yuba  River.  He  died  in  San  Francisco  in 
1874,  after  a  long  illness,  and  was  buried  in  the 
old  Mission  Dolores  cemetery.  Mrs.  Foster  was 
also  a  pioneer  of  Mendocino  County,  having  lived 
at  Westport,  Kibesillah   and   Fort    Bragg. 

Dear  Grandma  Foster,  words  are  inadequate  to 
ex] tress  the  love  and  praise  we  give  to  the  mem- 
ory of  the  life  and  character  of  one  who  passed 
through  affliction  and  anguish  unspeakable  during 
those  terrible  weeks  in  the  Sierras.  Although 
strong  men  succumbed  to  the  unbearable  suffer- 
ings she  still,  with  woman's  great  power  of  en- 
durance, lived  on.  She  left  the  example  of  a  life 
worthy  of  emulation.  Quiet  and  unassuming,  she 
went  about  her  duties  in  an  unostentatious  manner, 
her  chief  characteristic  being  to  help  others.  She 
was  loved  for  her  simplicity  and  charity.  Love  was 
the  foundation  of  her  life,  and  she  had  all  the 
qualities  which  go  to  make  up  heroes. 

The  Pioneers  were  forerunners  of  Western  prog- 
ress, and  those  who  left  comfortable  homes  and 
friends  in  the  East  and  journeyed  toward  the  land 
of  the  setting  sun.  must  have  had  great  courage 
and  faith  in  the  Supreme  Being,  Who  rules  all. 
For  a  pattern  of  noble  woma  nhood,  I ;  t  and  ma  Fos- 
ter stands  for  much  with  those  who  knew  her  best. 
Year  by  year  her  faith  grew  strong  and  unfalter- 
ing.     Although    frail   of   body,    she   did    much    work 

among  the  sick,   and    man^    I seholds    paj    tribute 

to  the   loving   hand  and   tender  sympathy  given  by 
her  during   times   of   trial   and   sorrow.      Her   death 
occurred  in  San   Francisco,   December   i,; 
burial   taking  place   in    Fori    Bragg.      She   had   lived 
her    fourscore    years. 

May  the  memory  of  her  many  virtues  and  life 
lf-sac  ifice  be  remembered  to  bless  hu- 
manity. She  died  knowing  she  had  fulfilled  the 
Divine  command,  "To  occupy  till  I  come. ' '  and 
had  accomplished  all  she  could.  The  poet  says  of 
such: 

"Sing  softly,  spring  bird.-  for  her  sake: 
And   thou,  not   distant   sea. 

e   lightly,  as   if  Jesus   spake. 
And  fehou  wert   Galilee!

April 


HE  STIRRING,  PICTURESQUE 
scenes  of  our  Pioneer  days  can 
never  be  reproduced.  There  are 
no  more  Californias  to  conquer.  Our 
name  and  our  story  are  unique. 
A  n  early  decree  of  Manifest  Des- 
tiny was  that  the  great  West  should 
sometime  become  an  integral  part 
of  the  empire  of  the  United  States. 
It  is  true  the  early  explorations  and 
settlements  of  the  vast  domain  be- 
yond the  Appalachians  belonged 
chiefly  to  the  French  and  the  Spanish,  and  their 
titles  to  the  land  were  undisputed  for  many  genera- 
tions; it  is  true  the  western  coasts  were  3,000  miles 
from  the  original  United  States  on  the  Atlantic 
seaboard.  But  there  began  with  the  beginning  of 
American  history  a  mighty  expansion  of  the  Anglo- 
Saxon  race  to  the  westward  which,  from  ascend- 
ing the  James,  the  Potomac  and  the  Hudson  in 
the  vain  hope  of  reaching  the  great  Pacific,  was 
destined  to  continue  with  fortunate  persistency 
until  the  farthermost  Occident  should  be  reached, 
and  the  Occident   firmly  joined  to   the  Orient. 

The  vietory  of  General  Wolfe  on  the  plains  of 
Abraham  in  1759,  was  a  door  opening  to  the  Anglo- 
Saxon  a  North  and  a  West  indefinitely  great.  In 
the  words  of  the  historian  Green,  "With  the  tri- 
umph of  Wolfe  ou  the  Heights  of  Abraham  began 
the  history  of  the  United  States."  As  if  Prance 
had  not  yet  suffered  sufficient  loss  and  humiliation 
on  the  American  continent,  Napoleon  Bonaparte 
'•lightly  offered  the  province  which  had  come  to 
him  so  cheaply, ' '  and  the  great  expanses  of 
Louisiana  were,  in  1803,  ceded  to  the  United  States. 
The  famous  expedition  of  Lewis  and  Clark  was 
the  beginning  of  a  jealous  American  interest  in 
the  great  Oregon  territory,  and  our  early  hold  upon 
it  was  greatly  strengthened  by  the  diplomacy  of 
John  Quincy  Adams.  It  is  said  that  Daniel  Web- 
ster once  used  these  words  concerning  Oregon: 
"What  do  we  want  with  this  vast  worthless  area, 
this  region  of  savages  and  wild  beasts,  of  deserts, 
of  shifting  sands  and  whirlwinds  of  dust,  of  cactus 
and  prairie  dogs?"  Such  was  for  a  time  the  popu- 
lar idea  of  the  wonderful  northwest  country.  The 
United  States  nad  completed  one  great  epoch  of 
territorial  growth;  it  was  yet  far  from  a  perfected 
national  state.  A  glance  at  the  map  shows  that 
perfect  geographical  unity  had  by  no  means  been 
reached ;  and  Oregon  was  so  very  remote  from 
Washington  the  national  capital  as  to  make  it  seem 
to  many  scarcely  worth  a  dispute. 

California  Responsible  for  Slavery  Downfall. 

Texas  and  the  vast  territory  of  Spanish  Cali- 
fornia must  be  acquired  if  the  national  boundaries 
were  to  be  rounded  out.  Notwithstanding  the  fact 
of  Spanish — or  Mexican — possession,  and  the  claims 
or  desires  of  England,  France  and  Russia,  Manifest 
Destiny  seems  to  have  decreed  that  California 
should  eventually  belong  to  the  United  States. 
The  question  of  slavery  extension  was  made  the 
occasion  for  the  accession  of  California;  and 
strangely  enough  it  is  to  California  that  slavery 
extension  owes  its  downfall.  Andrew  Jackson's 
policy  of  forcible  annexation  quickly  led.  under 
Polk,  to  the  war  with  Mexico  and  the  seizure  of 
Texas  for   the   purpose  of   extending  slavery. 

One  act  in  the  drama  of  the  Mexican  war,  as  we 
have  seen,  was  the  acquisition  of  California,  seized 
with  small  regard  for  the  rights  of  the  Hispano- 
Californian  population.  Why  should  not  slavery 
be  successfully  introduced  into  this  new  and  in- 
viting field?  Almost  from  the  beginning  of  the 
nineteenth  century  the  practice  prevailed  of  ad- 
mitting a  free  state  into  the  Union  only  when  a 
slave  state  was  ready  for  admission.  Accordingly 
there  had  been  exactly  equal  representation  in  the 
Senate  of  slave  and  free  states  since  1824.  And 
now  that  there  were  fifteen  free  and  fifteen  slave 
states,  the  question  what  was  to  be  done  with  Cali- 
fornia  was   far-reaching. 

Manifest  Destiny  answered  the  question,  and  in 
answering  it  forever  turned  the  tide  against  human 
slavery.  It  was  observed  that  neither  the  climate, 
nor  the  soil,  nor  the  production  of  the  larger  por- 
tion of  California  was  adopted  to  slave  labor;  and 
besides  this,  slavery  had  been  forbidden  in  Mexico, 
the  mother  country  of  California,  since  1S29.  The 
struggle  on  this  question,  both  in  California  and  at 
Washington,  was  long  and  bitter,  but  at  the  last 
Manifest  Destiny  had  its  way.  It  is  reported  how 
Senator  Calhoun,  when  almost  in  a  dying  condi- 
tion, invited  Senator  Gwin  to  an  interview,  in  the 
course  of  which  he  solemnly  predicted  as  an  effect 
of  California's  admission  as  a  free  state  the  de- 
struction of  the  equilibrium  between  North  and 
South,  "a  more  intense  agitation  of  the  slavery 
question,  a  civil  war,  and  the  destruction  of  the 
South." 

Illimitable  Stores  of  Wealth. 

But  not  yet  had  Manifest  Destiny  fully  expressed 
itself.     Although  gold  had  been  found  in  the  Los

Manifest  Destiny 

(BT  ROCKWELL  D.    HUNT,   PH.   D.) 


In  the  accompanying  article,  "California 
and  Manifest  Destiny,"  The  Grizzly  Bear 
presents — through  the  kind  arrangement  made 
by  the  author  with  the  publishers  of  his 
book — the  last  chapter  of  "California  the 
Golden,"  just  issued  from  the  New 
York  publishing  house  of  Silver,  Burdett  & 
Co.  The  book  is  especially  designed  for  use 
in  the  upper  grammar  school  grades  of  the 
State,  as  well  as  supplying  the  needs  of  the 
general  reader,  and  is  well  illustrated 
with  photographs  and  maps. 

The  author,  Rockwell  D.  Hunt,  Ph.  D.3  is  a 
native  calif  ornian,  for  years  a  writer  and 
lecturer  on  Pacific  Slope  history.  He  is  now 
a  professor  in  the  University  of  Southern 
California,  at  Los  Angeles,  and  is  lecturing 
in  teachers'  courses  in  California  history  in 
Los  Angeles  and  Pasadena. — [Editor. 


Angeles  region  as  early  as  1841,  a  favoring  Provi- 
dence concealed  the  illimitable  stores  of  wealth 
until  after  the  American  conquest  and  after  hope 
of  legalized  slavery  extension  had  faded.  James 
Marshall  discovered  gold  in  1S4S,  not  for  a  Latin 
race  but  for  tne  sturdy  Anglo-Saxon;  not  for  a 
dissevered  and  slave-ridden  people,  but  for  free  and 
united  America.  An  aged  man  of  the  Spanish  race. 
Don  Jjuis  Peralta  by  name,  having  sons  advanced 
almost  to  three-score  years,  being  filled  with  the 
gold  excitement  of  the  days  of  '49,  called  his  sons 
about  him  and  thus  spoke:  "My  sons.  God  gave 
that  gold  to  the  Americans.  If  He  had  wanted 
the  Spaniards  to  have  had  it,  He  would  have  let 
them  discover  it  before  now.  So  you  had  better 
not  go  after  it,  but  let  the  American  go.  Tou  can 
go  to  your  ranch  and  raise  grain,  and  that  will  be 
your  best  gold  field;  because  we  all  must  eat  while 
we   live. ' " 

In  the  dark  hours  of  civil  strife,  it  was  Califor- 
nia gold  that  supplied  a  necessary  element  of 
strength  and  steadiness  to  our  national  finance. 
M.  Alex.  Buchner,  writing  in  1S69,  declared:  "It 
is  the  gold  of  California  that  has  dealt  the  fatal 
blow  to  the  institution  of  slaverv  in  the  United 
States. ' ' 

The  Manifest  Destiny  of  California,  so  far  as 
it  relates  to  past  days,  is  not  merely  a  trumped-up 
expression  of  today  for  retrospective  or  ex  post 
facto  use.  Let  us  note  a  few  of  the  numerous 
prophetic  utterances  of  the  pioneer  press,  far  see- 
ing argonauts,  and  observant  travelers.  In  the 
Calif ornian  of  August  28,  1846,  a  writer  signing 
himself   "C. "  uses  this  language: 

The  destiny  of  Caliornia  is  fixed — she  is  to  hecome 
a  free  and  independent  State — a  member  of  the  North 
American  Confederacy.  She  is  no  longer  to  be  subject  to 
a  foreign  arbitrary  power,  to  domestic  revolutions  or 
military  rule.  She  is  to  make  her  own  laws.,  manage 
her  own  resources,  and  found  those  institutions  in  which 
her  children   are  to   find  a  happy  home.     *      * 

Golden  harvests  will  wave  over  hills  and  val!  ey,  where 
now  only  the  briar  and  bramble  are  seen;  and  where  only 
the  howl  of  the  wolf  is  heard,  the  gloomy  silence  of  the 
wild  cascade  will  be  broken  by  the  thunder  of  factories, 
where  art  and  industry  will  roll  out  upon  the  public 
their  richest  products.  Commerce  will  enliven  every  bay, 
and    penetrate    into    the    gorges    of    the    distant    mountains. 

This  may  seem  too  flattering  a  picture,  but  it  is  no 
more  than  what  is  seen  and  felt  through,  the  length  and 
breadth  of  the  United  States.  The  same  enterprise  and 
prosperity  which  prevails  there  avails  this  country.  The 
same  spirit  which  has  made  the  farmer  and  mechanic 
wealthy  there,  will  make  them  wealthy  here.  The  same 
spirit  that  has  carried  the  advantages  of  an  education 
to  every  child  there,  will  carry  the  advantages  to  every 
child  here.  The  same  spirit  that  had  founded  asylums 
there  for  the  infirm,  the  deaf  and  dumb,  the  houseless 
widow  and  orphan,  will  found  the  same  beneficent  "insti- 
tution here.  Such  is  the  destiny  of  California,  such  the 
patrimony  which  the  aged,  now  descending  into  their 
graves,  bequeath  to  their  children.  Who  would  dread 
such  a  vista?  Who  bar  his  offspring  from  such  a 
heritage  ? 

California's    Important    Destiny. 

The  same  paper  foresaw  at  a  very  early  date  that 
English  was  to  be  the  language  of  California.  On 
October  10,  1S46,  when  the  English-speaking  popu- 
lation of  the  entire  territory  was  less  than  2,000, 
or  not  quite  one-fifth  the  total  (exclusive  of 
Indians),   it   said   editorially: 

This  is  to  be  the  language  of  California.  The  vast 
tide  of  emigration  from  the  United  States  will  inevitably 
make  it  so.  It  becomes,  therefore,  every  parent  to  have 
his  children  taught  this  language,  and  have  it  taught 
them,  early.  *  *  *  No  parent  should  let  his  child 
grow  up  in  ignorance;  it  is  a  reflection  on  him,  and  an 
inevitable    misfortune    to    the    child. 

The  surpassing  excellence  of  the  San  Francisco 
harbor,    even    while    San    Praneiseo    was    hardly    a 


village,   did  not   escape  notice.     The   editor   of  the 
Calif  ornian    writes,    September    26,    1S46: 

San  rrancisco  will  yet  become  the  most  important 
port  in  California.  It  has  in  itself  advantages  which  no 
other  port  can  rival.  The  navies  of  the  whole  world 
can  float  securely  in  its  sheltered  waters,  and  then  the 
valleys  which  stretch  away  from  its  strand .  are  clothed 
with  perpetual  verdure,  and  the  streams  which  roll  into 
it    are   never   dry. 

But  even  the  prophetic  editor  could  not  foresee 
that,  within  three  short  years,  that  selfsame  harbor 
should  be  transformed  into  a  forest  of  masts  by 
the  influx  of  argonauts.  At  a  somewhat  later  date, 
to  be  sure,  he  does  get  a  truer  view  of  California's 
prospective  greatness,  and  of  the  certain  importance 
of  the  "town"  of  San  Francisco: 

Wno  can  doubt  the  importance  to  which  California  is 
destined?  And  who  can  doubt  the  important  station  the 
town  of  San  Francisco  is  destined  to  occupy  among  the 
cities  of  the  Pacific  borders?  We  have  already  witnessed 
its  rise  from  a  few  houses  to  a  great  many.  It  now  con- 
tains eight  stores  of  general  merchandise,  the  most  of 
which  do  a  very  considerable  wholesale  and  retail 
business. 

After  the  great  tide  of  immigration  had  fairly 
set  in,  even  bolder  prophecies  were  made — and  with 
good  reason.  In  the  Constitutional  Convention  of 
1849,   E.   M.   Price  used  these  words: 

Our  commercial  capital,  San  Francisco,  is,  in  my 
opinion,  destinted  to  be  the  center  of  the  exchange  of 
the  world,  and  is  destined  to  supply  the  world  with  a 
large  share  of  its  currency.  With  our  great  natural 
wealth   we   can   never   want    currency. 

At  the  opening  of  the  nineteenth  century  the 
population  of  California,  exclusive  of  Indians,  was 
perhaps  1,300.  The  number  of  whites  increased 
very  slowly  until  the  emigrants  from  the  United 
States  began  to  enter  the  country;  while  in 
August  of  1846  the  population  numbered  10.000, 
if  we  exclude  Indians,  of  which  less  than  2,000 
were  foreigners.  At  the  beginning  of  1S49  the  num- 
ber had  reached  26,000,  one-half  native  Califor- 
nians  and  the  remainder  Americans  and  foreigners. 
The  immigration  of  Americans  during  1S49  was 
estimated  at  80.000  and  of  foreigners  at  20,000. 
M  lien  tne  year  1S50  opened  the  population  amounted 
in  rouud  numbers  to  115,000.  San  Francisco  grew 
from  812  in  March,  1S4S,  to  over,  5,000  in  Julv  of 
1S49.  J 

The  Constitutional  Convention  which  met  at 
Monterey  in  September,  1849,  set  for  itself  the  task 
of  framing  a  state  government;  and  on  September 
9th  of  the  next  year  there  was  born,  amidst  the 
most  intense  struggles  in  the  arena  of  our  national 
government,  the  Empire  State  of  the  Pacific — Cali- 
fornia. 

a  Truly  Marvelous  Transformation. 
All-devouring  Manifest  Destiny  is  having  her 
way,  but  is  not  yet  satisfied.  California  "has  be- 
come a  free  and  independent  State"  of  the  Ameri- 
can Union;  she  is  no  longer  "subject  to  a  foreign 
arbitrary  power,  to  domestic  revolutions  or  mili- 
tary rule/'  She  makes  her  own  laws,  manages  her 
own  resources,  and  founds  those  institutions  in 
which  her  children  find  a  happy  home.  Instead  of 
the  briar  and  bramble  there  are  golden  harvests 
waving  over  hills  and  valleys.  Instead  of  thou- 
sands of  antelope,  elk  and  deer,  there  are  countless 
sheep,  cattle  and  horses.  TVhere  a  brief  half-cen- 
tury ago  there  were  a  few  scattered  villages  of 
degraded  Indians,  numerous  flourishing  cities  and 
towns  now  support  their  teeming,  enlightened  popu- 
lation. 

Let  one  of  our  hoary-headed  Pioneers,  who  has 
been  honored  of  Heaven  to  witness  the  entire 
American  development  of  California,  lose  himself — 
as  he  is  prone  to  do — in  day-dreams  of  our  heroic 
age;  let  him  visit  the  quaint  Mission  of  .the  Padres, 
participate  once  again  in  the  spirited  fandango,  meet 
and  terrify  the  wild  Indian  who  had  never  looked 
upon  the  face  of  a  white  man.  Let  him  come  upon 
the  haunts  of  the  great  grizzly,  behold  the  vast 
herds  of  elk,  listen  to  the  howling  of  the  wolf  and 
the  coyote;  let  him  fondly  think  of  home  and  loved 
ones  thousands  of  .miles  away,  until  lonesome  and 
wistful  he  is  wrapt  in  reverie.  Then  let  him,  Eip 
Van  Winkle  that  he  is,  suddenly  awake  and  look 
out  upon  the  splendid  modern  commonwealth  of 
California.  Truly  marvelous  is  the  transformation 
ne  will   witness! 

Xote  first  the  population.  The  American  popula- 
tion of  two  thousand  in  the  year  of  gold  discovery 
has  become  more  than  two  and  a  quarter  millions, 
the  census  reports  showing  these  gigantic  strides: 
1850,  92,597;  i860.  279,994;  1870,  560.247:  1880, 
1.208,130;  1900,  1,485,053;  1910,  2.377,549.  San 
Francisco,  from  being  a  pueblo  of  135  dwellings 
and  twelve  places  of  business  in  184S.  has  perse- 
vered through  much  tribulation  and,  true  to  the 
phoenix  myth,  has  risen  from  the  ashes  of  her 
greatest  calamity,  destined  to  be  one  of  America's 
mightiest  cities,  if  not  "the  center  of  the  exchange 
of  the  world. ' '  Los  Angeles,  a  village  of  1,600  in- 
habitants when  California  became  a  State,  has  be- 
come a  metropolitan  center  of  320,000,  setting  a  new 
mark  to  the  world  in  city  building. 
Material  Resources  Ample. 
California's  material  resources  are  ample  beyond 
easy    comprehension.      Note    the    magnitude    of    hei

mining   industry.     Ln   less   than   half  n   eenturj    up 

wards  of  $1,250,1 ,000   in   gold   was   produced,   the 

production  for  tin-  single  year  of  1852  amounting 
in  $81,294,700.  Gold  mining  continues  apace;  bul 
besides  gold,  the  mineral  producl  of  California  is 
very  large  and  highly  diversified,  li  must  suffice 
simply  t"  mention  quick  silver,  coal,  iron,  silver, 
copper,  and  structural  materials  such  as  cement, 
clay,  macadam,  sandstone  and  onyx.  Some  idea  of 
the  value  of  petroleum  and  allied  products  may 
be   gained    from    the    fact    that    the    production    of 

petroleum  in  1910  is  estimated  a1   73, 1,000  barrels, 

bs   against    t, in    1900   and   403,000   in    1890. 

In  addition  to  supplying  her  own  markets,  Cali 
forma  is  supplying  the  whole  western  coast  of 
America,  from  Chili  to  Alaska,  with  crude  oil;  is 
Bending  it  across  the  Pacific  to  Japan,  and  will  soon 
bo  openly  competing  for  tin-  market  of  Eastern 
states,   of    Europe,   and   of    Africa, 

Much  of  the  true  gold  of  California  lies  in  her 
spreading  grain  fields,  For  years  i1  was  believed 
by  many  that  mining  was  the  only  industry  that 
would  pay;  but  the  present  acreage  of  wheat, 
barley,  oats  and  corn,  running  into  the  millions, 
with  annua]  yields  worth  scores  of  millions  of 
dollars,  shows  how  utterly  baseless  was  such«a  be- 
lief. The  grain  products  for  a  single  year  (1908), 
including  wheat,  barley,  oats  an d  other  grains 
amounted  in  value  to  nearly  $55,000,000;  while  the 
total  of  California's  farm  products  for  that  year 
is  estimated  at  $225,000,000,  or  450-fold  that  of 
1850. 

Add    to    this    the    golden     products    of    the    dairies. 

amounting  in  1908  to  more  than  $25,000,000;  the 
scores  of  thousands  of  carloads  <•(  fruil  of  all  kinds 
shipped  out  of  the  State  every  year;  the  $87,000,- 
000  worth  of  forest  products  in  a  single  year,  and 
the  enormous  riches  of  vine  and  valley,  or  stream 
and  bay — time  fails  complete  enumeration — and  the 
material  side  of  California's  resources  must  be  in- 
deed impressive.  The  annual  soil  production  mounts 
to  the  grand  total  of  nearly  half  a  billion  of 
dollars. 

State's    Commercial    Importance. 

The  commercial  importance  of  California  is  like- 
wise established.  But  for  the  primitive  canoe  and 
an  occasional  brig,  the  splendid  harbor  of  San  Frau- 
cisco   was  entirely  unused  until   the  gold   discovery 

transformed  it  into  a  forest  of  masts.  The  eoiii- 
pletion  of  the  Pacific  Railroad  in  1809  was  an  event 
of  highest  importance.  The  entrance  of  great  com- 
peting railroads  augurs  well  for  future  commerce; 
while  the  completion  of  the  Panama  Canal  will  be 
epoch-making  for  the  entire  Pacific  <  'oast.  (Greater 
Los  Angeles  is  actively  preparing  tor  the  commer- 
cial leadership  of  the  great  Southwest.  The  ab- 
sorption of  Wilmington  and  San  Pedro  in  1909 
gave  her  the  improved  harbor  San  Pedro  and 
placed  her  on  the  highway  of  maritime  greatness. 
Our  trade  with  new-  China  and  the  Orient  will 
rapidly  assume  proportions  that  hitherto  have  ap- 
peared  quite   incredible. 

Warm  interest  was  taken  in  the  subject  of  edu- 
cation by  the  convention  of  L849,  which  showed 
excellent  foresight  in  setting  apart  certain  revenues 
for  a  State  University  and  a  complete  system  of 
public  schools.  The  University  of  California,  estab- 
lished in  1868,  is  at  present  ranked  as  one  of  the 
greatest  in  America,  while  other  colleges  and  uni- 
versities of  high  rank  are  not  wanting.  Every 
considerable  town  and  village  has  its  high  school 
or  academy;  excellent  professional  and  technical 
schools  abound;  grade  schools  are  everywhere.  In 
no  other  State  is  the  educational  standard  higher 
than    in    California. 

It  is  well  known  that  California  has  long  been 
synonymous  with  largeness.  Her  own  dimensions; 
her  mountains;  her  bays,  rivers  and  lakes;  her 
grain  fields,  orchards  and  gardens;  her  trees;  her 
marvelous  works  of  nature— these  enjoy  everywhere 
a  reputation  for  largeness.  But  are  these  works  of 
nature,  and  these  ample  material  resources  of  man, 
the  true  measure  of  California's  greatness.'  Is  such 
foundation  sufficient  to  the  demands  of  the  glitter- 
ing   future    to    which    destiny    beckons    the    Golden 

State.' 

California's  Destiny  Rests  With  Us. 

Manifest  Destiny  has  uttered  many  a  decree  not 
yet  fully  carried  out.  California's  population  will 
continue  to  increase;  the  arid  wastes  of  the  great 
West  will  be  reclaimed  and  transformed  into  popu- 
lous and  fertile  districts;  industries  now  in  their 
infancy  will  expand  to  unexpected  proportions,  and 
material  wealth  of  every  kind  will  multiply.  From 
■a  position  of  complete  separation  from  the  world 
only  a  few  decades  ago,  California  will  be  thrust 
into  the  very  center  of  the  geography  of  world 
movements;  for.  as  William  II.  Seward  more  than 
half  a  century  ago  prophesied:  "The  Pacific 
Ocean,  with  its  shores,  its  islands,  and  its  vast 
region  beyond,  will  become  the  chief  theater  of  the 
events  of  the  world's  great  hereafter."  Califor- 
nia's vantage,  her  coast  line  of  71)0  miles,  and  her

X  DECEMBER  23,  1849,  A  FIRE 
— the  first  of  a  series  of  similar 
calamities  which  have  since  visiled 
every     city     and     almost     every     town 

in  California — swept  over  a  portion 
of  the  "mushroom"  city  of  stock 

ton,  leaving  nothing  but  a  smoulder 
ing  and  smoking  waste.  The  greater 
portion  of  the  block  bounded  by 
< tenter,  Levee,  El  Dorado  and  Main 
streets — -the  heart  of  the  town— was 
laid   in   ruins.     The  amount   of   prop 

I    was    valued    at   $200, '. 

idoniitable  courage,  and  riot  wit  hsl  a  ml 
ing  the  lack  of  proper  materials,  as  well  as  the  un- 
paralleled severity  of  the  winter  of  ls4!t  and  LS50, 
buildings  were  again  run  up,  and  the  insight ly 
waste  was  transformed  into  a  cleaner  and  tetter 
city.  It  was  the  "  gold  fever  that  made  Stock 
ton  grow  so  rapidly  in  the  early  days,  but  with 
good  soil  and  a  good  channel,  the  city   had   to   f>uc 

coed. 

Jusl  after  the  fire,  plentiful  cold  rams  set  in  and 
continued  until  the  country  about  btockton  was  a 
sea  of  mud,  and  freighting  to  the  mines  was  im- 
possible. French  Camp  was  the  nearest  land  con- 
nection of  Stockton.  At  this  same  lime  San  Fran- 
cisco also  had  a  fire,  which  caused  the  wholesale 
merchants  there  to  demand  their  money  from  their 
Stockton  creditors,  some  of  whom,  being  unable 
to  pay,  were  forced  to  close  up.  At  this  time  there 
were  a  few  wooden  buildings,  but  the  tow  u  was 
[iiOCtly    made   up    of   tents. 

The  population  of  the  State  in  1319  was  20,000; 
in  1850,  107,069.  The  majority  of  the  "strangers" 
went  to  the  mines,  which  had  to  receive  their 
supplies  from  either  Stockton,  Sacramento,  or 
Marysville,  so  Stockton  became  a  very  important 
f  enter. 

Early  in  the  spring  of  1850  the  citfxens  began  to 
agitate  the  question  of  another  attempt  at  city 
organization;  the  first  effort  in  that  direction  hav- 
ing proved  ineffectual,  the  second  was  more  care- 
fully planned.  The  first  step  was  a  meeting  of  some 
of  the  leading  citizens  at  the  store  of  George  G. 
Belt  on  the  evening  of  M^arch  15,  1850. 

The  result  of  the  meeting  was  the  appointment  of 
a  committee  to  draft  an  act  of  incorporation  for 
the  city,  and  report  the  same  at  a  meeting  to  be 
held  at  a  later  date  at  the  "Owens  House."  This 
second  meeting  resulted  in  a  disagreement  as  to 
the  boundaries  of  the  proposed  city,  and  a  propo- 
sition to  submit  the  matter  to  a  vote  on  the  first 
Monday  in  the  coming  April  was  defeated.  The 
city  was  finally  incorporated,  however,  under  a 
general  act  of  the  Legislature,  by  the  following  de- 
cree issued  from  the  court  of  Judge  Benjamin  Wil- 
liams, .July  23,   1850: 

STOCKTON'S    FIRST    CHARTER. 

A  petition  from  the  citiz.ens  of  Stockton 
praying  that  the  town  might  be  incor- 
porated under  the  name  of  the  City  of 
Stockton,  according  to  the  provisions  of  an 
act  to  provide  for  the  incorporation  of 
cities,  was  this  day  presented  to  the  Court, 
and  it  appearing  to  the  satisfaction  of  the 
Court  that  saiu  town  has  a  population  ex- 
ceeding two  thousand;  that  a  majority  of 
the  qualified  electors  thereof  have  signed 
the  above  petition;  and  that  legal  notice 
has  been  given  of  the  aforesaid  applica- 
tion,  it    is   therefore 


unequaled  harbors  destine  her  to  be  Queen   of  the 
Pacific. 

But  will  she  fulfill  her  high  destiny?  Will  she 
steadfastly  obey  the  higher  law  of  her  nature  and 
mount    to   the  summit   of  her  opportunities? 

Our  hoary-headed  Pioneer,  ripened  by  his  years 
and  his  wealth  of  experience,  raises  his  hand  and 
his  voice  of  warning  as  he  utters  words  of  wisdom 
and  lays  upon  us  his  parting  injunction.  ' '  What 
constitutes  a  State?  '  Our  mines  and  fields  and 
factories;  the  growth  of  population,  the  magnitude 
of  our  commerce;  our  systems  of  law,  our  institu- 
tions of  learning — these,  singly  or  combined,  mate- 
rial agents  as  they  are,  can  never  inaugurate  the 
perfection  of  progress,  except  as  they  produce 
' '  men,  high-minded  men  ' ' — men 
"iiiiii  live  above  the  fog 
In  public  duty  and  in  private  thinking." 
Eureka)  Manifest  Destiny  is  calling  today  for 
native  sons  and  native  daughters  of  true  moral 
fiber  and  excellent  virtues.  Heaven  itself  lays  upon 
us  the  injunction,  "Quit  you  like  men.     Be  strong!

WILL  PROTECT  LOS  ANGELES' 

GREAT  WATiiR  PROJECT. 
I  'resident  Taft  has  signed  a  proclamation  elim- 
inating 276,424  acres  in  California  from  the  lnvo 
National  Forest  and  adding  sn  ~>:\~2  acres,  the  greater 
part  of  which  is  located  in  California,  with  a  small 
portion  lying  in  Nevada.  Most  of  the  land  elim- 
inated lies  along  the  Owens  River  valley,  where  the 
question  as  to  the  proper  boundary  for  the  forest 
has  been  much  discussed.  The  Owena  River  set 
tiers  have  been  urgent  to  have  the  forest  area  re 
duced,  but  the  representatives  of  the  city  of  Los 
Angeles  have  regarded  the  retention  of  the  land  by 
the  Government  as  essential  to  the  success  of  the 
great  aqueduct  project,  intended  to  assure  Los  An- 
geles an  abundant  supply  of  pure  water  from  the 
Sierras,  2511  miles  away.  The  elimination  now  made 
is  the  result  of  an  agreement  finally  arrived  ai  by 
representatives  of  the  Owens  River  settlers,  the 
Forest  Service,  and  the  city  of  Los  Angeles,  where 
by  the  conflict  of  views  and  interests  was  adjusted 
on  a  basis  which  commands  the  assent  of  all  parties. 


MOUNT   DIABLO. 
Chieftains  of  the  world   envy  thee,  glorious  mount. 
For  the  victories  that    are   thine,  who  can   count 
Or  who,   like   thee,   on   any   throne   can    sway 
Unto  visions  of  delight   an   underworld   so   gay. 

Thy  proud   head   in   no   dismal   dungeon   lies. 

But   raises  kingly,  to  survey  beauties  of  earth  and 

sk  y ; 
Then    rests    entrancingly.    free    from    all    dearth 
Of    poverties    that    other    brows    see    on    earth. 

Thy  conquests  shall    be  as  everlasting  as   t he   sun; 
And    glorious,    glorious    shall    echo;    and    echo    then 

joyfully    run 
Its    anthems    of    praise    the    wide    world    o'er. 
Then   blend   with    Heaven   as   it   enters   its   hospitable 

door.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


April 


Important  Happenings  in 

California  Fifty  Years  Ago 

(COMPILED  FOE  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAE  BY  THOMAS  E.  JONES.) 


§ 

n 

T  WAS  3  P.  M.,' APRIL  24,  1861, 
when  the  Pony  Express  arrived  at 
Fort  Churchill,  Nevada,  with  the 
news  that  Port  Sumpter  had  been 
fired  upon  by  orders  of  General 
Beauregard  at  Charlestown,  S.  C. 
on  April  12th,  and  a  civil  war,  that 
was  to  last  four  long  years  and  ex- 
ceed in  magnitude  and  ultimate  re- 
sults any  previous  civil  war  in  the 
history  of  the  world,  was  begun. 
The  news  was  immediately  tele- 
graphed to  San  Francisco  and  other  cities  and  towns 
in  California,  where  it  was  received  as  a  mental 
shock,  although  the  beginning  of  hostilities  was 
unmistakably  foreshadowed  in  the  signs  of  the 
times.  The  people  of  the  State  remained  for  several 
days  in  a  state  of  suppressed  excitement.  Probably 
three-fourths  of  the  American  citizens  here  then 
were  Union  men  and  they  viewed  the  event  with 
different  feelings  of  anxiety,  doubt  and  misgivings, 
while  the  Secessionists  were  in  an  exultant  mood. 
The  next  Pony  Express  brought  the  news  that 
President  Lincoln  had  called  for  75,000  men;  that 
the  Border  states  refused  to  furnish  their  quota; 
that  the  Northern  states  were  arming  in  excess  of 
the  president's  call,  and  that  Jefferson  Davis  had 
declared  that  seventy-five  times  75,000  men  could 
not  subdue  the  South  and  he  proposed  to  march  on 
and  capture  Washington  in  thirty  days.  This 
caused  intense  excitement  which,  on  the  receipt  of 
the  news  that  a  Massachusetts  regiment  had  been 
attacked  in  the  streets  of  Baltimore  and  that  blood 
liad  been  shed,  burst  into  a  patriotic  uprising  and 
an  expression  of  loyalty  that  spread  like  wildfire 
over  the  entire  State. 

Business  in  San  Praneisco  was  practically  sus- 
pended. Drytowh,  Amador  County,  then  a  thriving 
mining  camp,  was  the  first  to  organize  a  Union 
Club,  and  its  example  was  quickly  followed;  like 
the  echoing  of  a  gun  fired  amid  surrounding  peaks 
or  the  rattle  of  an  infantry  fire,  came  the  reports 
of  Union  Clubs  forming  in  every  city,  town  and 
camp  in  California."  There  was  soon  no  question 
where  the  great  majority  of  American  citizens  in 
California  stood,  and  their  loyalty  to  the  Union, 
regardless  of  past  political  affiliations,  was  made 
manifest  in  many  substantial  ways. 

On  April  25th,  General  E.  V.  Sumner  arrived  on 
a  steamer  from  Panama  to  take  charge  of  the 
forts  and  troops  in  San  Praneisco  and  on  the  Pacific 
Coast.  This  removed  all  possibility  of  the  Seces- 
sionists obtaining  control  of  the  United  States 
Army  and  equipment  through  the  disloyalty  of  offi- 
cers in  command  who.  being  Southern  men,  were 
under  suspicion.  The  Union  citizens  now  breathed 
freer.  On  the  same  steamer.  Senator  M.  S.  Latham 
of  this  State  and  Senator  Jos.  Lane  of  Oregon  ar- 
rived. Senator  Latham,  on  account  of  his  known 
Union  sentiments,  was  received  with  a  salute  and 
cheers,  while  Senator  Lane  was  ignominiously 
treated  on  account  of  his  known  Secession  princi- 
ples. Several  thousand  dollars  had  been  subscribed 
before  the  news  regarding  Fort  Sumpter  was  re- 
ceived, to  tender  Senator  Latham  a  public  dinner, 
but  owing  to  the  condition  of  the  public  mind  and 
the  differences  of  opinion  existing  between  the  pro- 
posed banqueters,  the  Senator  declined  the  prof- 
fered honor.  On  April  30th  he  proceeded  to  Sacra- 
mento on  the  steamer  "Milton  S.  Latham,"  char- 
tered by  a  committee  of  citizens  from  Sacramento, 
and  on  arriving  there  at  11  p.  m.  was  enthusi- 
astically received  by  a  large  concourse  of  citizens. 
After  a  salute,  a  military  and  firemen's  escort 
preceded  a  carriage — drawn  by  four  gray  horses 
each  nodding  a  head  bearing  an  American  flag — 
in  which  were  seated  the  Senator  and  several,  dis- 
tinguished citizens.  They  proceeded  to  the  .S't. 
George  Hotel,  where  the  Senator  delivered  a  sound 
Union  speech,  which  was  cheered  to  the  echo. 

Of  important  legislation  enacted  to  the  benefit  of 
California  by  Congress,  he  spoke  as  follows:  "Not- 
withstanding the  troubles  in  the  East,  California 
lias  received  nearly  its  full  complement  of  appro- 
priations. In  less  than  sixty  days  you  will  have 
a  daily  overland  mail  service  in  sixteen  days' 
communication  with  the  East;  the  Pony  Ex- 
press is  now  a  Government  institution,  and  tri- 
weekly trips  will  convey  correspondence  at  a  charge 
of  $1  a  letter;  a  tri-weekly  mail  service  is  to  be 
established  between  San  Francisco  and  Los  An- 
geles, and  a  semi-monthly  mail  from  San  Antonio,- 


Texas,  to  San  Diego;  the  overland  telegraph  line 
will  be  completed  by  October,  and  the  coming  ses- 
sion of  Congress  will  pass  a  Pacific  railroad  bill." 
All  of  these  statements  of  improvements  were  re- 
ceived with  cneers  by  the  audience. 

The  U.  S.  Government  had  failed  to  send  funds 
to  pay  the  Federal  office  holders,  employes  of  the 
navy  yard,  forts  and  wagon  road  exploration,  so 
that  considerable  financial  distress,  as  well  as  mis- 
givings, existed  with  these  people.  The  changes 
of  administration  were  being  eagerly  awaited, 
and  considerable  dissatisfaction  was  felt  among 
the  members  of  the  Republican  party  over  the 
known  influence  Senator  E.  D.  Baker  of  Oregon 
was  exerting  over  the  president  to  favor  his  rela- 
tives and  political  friends.  A  delegation  of  Cali- 
fornia Republicans  called  upon  President  Lincoln 
to  denounce  Senator  Baker  and  destroy  his  prestige 
but  President  Lincoln,  who  "had  known  Senator 
Baker  in  Springfield,  Illinois,  twenty-five  years  be- 
fore, was  not  disposed  to  go  back  upon  his  friend, 
and  Senator  Baker's  influence  was  found  to  be  what 
that  of  the  only  Republican  in  Congress  from  the 
Coast  should  be  expected  to  be,  viz,  all-powerful. 
Senator  Baker's  son-in-law,  R.  L.  Stevens,  received 
the  appointment  of  Superintendent  of  the  U..S'.  Mint 
in  San  Francisco.  Ira  P.  Rankin,  Collector  of  Port, 
and  S.  H.  Parker,  postmaster  of  San  Francisco,  were 
ti*e  first  appointments  to  be  made,  but  these  were 
followed  in  steady  succession  unt:l  every  postoffice 
and  other  official  position  was  filled  by  a  nepubH- 
can,   who    displaced,   a   Democrat. 

Hot  Times  in  Legislature. 

The  Legislature  continued  in  session  during  the 
month  of  April,  but  as  under  the  then-existing  law 
the  pay  after  April  7th  was  only  $5  a  day,  it 
became  more  and  more  difficult  to  get  more  than 
a  quorum  present  at  roll-call  each  day.  The  strain 
upon  the  mental  condition  of  the  members,  through 
the  intense  political  feeling  in  the  East,  became 
manifest  in  the  personalities  expressed  in  debate 
and  actual  encounters  between  members  of  dif- 
ferent political  faiths.  On  April  11th  two  of  the 
most  prominent  members  of  the  Assembly  hurled 
epithets  and  inkstands  at  each  other,  one  finally 
drawing  a  bowie  knife  and  making  an  effort  to 
use  it.  On  April  25th,  following  a  colloquy,  a  mem- 
ber struck  another  over  the  head  with  a  heavy 
cane,   inflicting  a   severe   cut   on   the   scalp. 

An  apportionment  bill  redisricting  the  State, 
made  necesary  by  the  census  of  1 S60,  caused  a 
great  deal  of  wrangling  and  argument.  It  was  pro- 
posed to  increase  the  membership  of  the  Senate 
from  thirty-five  to  forty  members  and  make  the 
basis  of  population  for  a  Senator  S340  inhabitants 
and  for  an  Assemblyman  4170.  Owing  to  the  loss 
of  population  in  the  mining  counties  and  increase 
in  the  bay  and  valley  counties,  quite  a  change  in 
representation,  and  corresponding  political  influ- 
ence, was  bound  to  result.  Alameda  County  at 
this  time  had  a  less  number  of  inhabitants  than 
Amador  County.  Chinese,  Indians  and  negroes 
were  not   figured  in   the   apportionment. 

A  bill  to  allow  Catholic  schools  a  portion  of 
the  school  fund  was  defeated  after  a  long  and 
acrimonious   series   of   debates. 

California  had  no  Congressmen,  owing  to  the 
expiration  of  the  terms  of  the  members  elected  in 
1S59,  and  as  an  extra  session  was  expected  to  be 
ealled  to  act  upon  war  measures,  it  was  proposed 
to  call  a  special  election  in  June. 

A  proposed  Sunday  law  was  killed  in  the  Senate. 

The  hackmen  and  draymen  of  San  Francisco  sent 
a  remonstrance  to  the  Legislature  against  the 
passage  of  any  bills  allowing  railroads  to  be  built 
into  San  Francisco,  claiming  their  business  would 
be   seriously   injured. 

A  bill  to  change  the  name  of  Lake  Bigler,  now 
Lake  Tahoe,  to  that  of  Tula  Tulia,  said  to  be  its 
Indian  name,  was  introduced. 

Chinese  Believe  They  Prevented  Flood. 
There  was  a  heavy  rainstorm  on  the  6th,  7th  and 
8th  of  the  month,  which  caused  all  the  streams  to 
rise  to  high-water  marks,  but  as  the  floods  of  March 
had  done  all  the  damage  a  flood  could  do,  there  was 
nothing  left  for  the  April  storm  but  to  flow  its 
murky  way.  The  melting  of  snow  kept  the  rivers 
to  high- water  mark  during  a  large  part  of  the 
month,  and  so  alarmed  did  the  Chinese  inhabitants 
of  Sacramento  become,  that  they  gathered  unani- 
mously upon  the  bank  of  the  slough,  along  which 


they  lined  at  3  a.  m.  on  April  10th  with  punks, 
candles,  firecrackers  and  gongs  and  kept  up  a  fussi- 
lade  and  an  inharmonious  din  until  7  a.  m.  to  pre- 
vent a  further  rise  of  the  river. 

"Too  muchee  water!  Makee  him  go  lay  pletty 
click,"  was  the  answer  to  any  inquiry  as  to  what 
was  going  on.  As  the  river  began  to  slowly  fall 
on  account  of  less  snow  to  melt,  the  Chinese  were 
firm  in  their  belief  that  they  accomplished  what 
the   ' '  Meliean   man   no   can   do. ' ' 

On  Eel  River,  the  flood  carried  out  into  the 
meadows  it  overflowed  large  quantities  of  salmon 
and  other  fish  which,  being  left  stranded  when  the 
river  rapidly  fell,  were  gathered  up  by  the  Indians 
and  after  being  smoked  and  dried  were  stored  away 
for  a  future  food  supply. 

The  Sacramento  River  at  Sacramento  reached  a 
high-water  mark  of  two  and  one-half  feet,  which 
was  the  highest  mark  in  nearly  ten  years.  It  has 
since  been  over  twenty-eight  feet. 

One  of  the  stories  of  the  March  flood  being  pub- 
lished was  that  concerning  a  Pioneer  citizen  of 
Jackson,  who  claimed  to  have  swam  the  Mokelumne 
River  at  high-water  mark,  with  $3000  in  ten-cent 
pieces  in  his  pockets,  lie  had  gathered  them  while 
tending  bar  in  a  saloon  at  Mokelumne  Hill  for 
three  months,  he  being  allowed  to  keep  all  the  ten- 
cent  pieces  taken  in  or  thrown  on  the  floor  by 
gamblers,  who  did  not  want  such  small  change.  He 
had  to  swim  the  river  to  keep  an  engagement,  the 
bridge   having  been   swept   away. 

Engines  Co:ne  Via  Cape  Horn. 

A.  D.  Rightmire,  Indian  Agent  of  California,  pro- 
posed to  remove  the  Indians  from  Southern  Cali- 
fornia to  the  reservation  at  Owens  Lake. 

The  residents  of  Honey  Lake  Valley  were  strenu- 
ously objecting  to  the  county  officials  of  Plumas 
County  exercising  authority  over  persons  and  prop- 
erty in  that  locality,  claiming  they  belonged  to  the 
territory  of  Nevada. 

The  construction  of  a  wagon  road  from  Dutch 
Flat  to  Washoe  was  begun  at  Dutch  Flat  on  April 
1st.  It  was  claimed  this  route  would  be  thirty 
miles  shorter  than  any  of  the  others. 

A  surveying  party  was  locating  a  wagon  road 
across  the  Coast  Range  from  Visalia  to  San  Simeon 
Bay,  in  San  Luis  Obispo  County.  A  town  was  laid 
out  on  the  shore  of  the  bay,  and  it  was  expected 
a  large  number  of  settlers  would  locate  on  the 
government  lands  the  road  would  open  communi- 
cation with. 

On  April  9th  one  thousand  settlers  assembled  on 
the  Chabdlla  Rancho,  in  Santa  Clara  County,  pre- 
pared to  prevent  service  of  writs  of  ejectment  by 
the  sheriff  against  settlers  on  the  land  claimed  by 
the  Chabolla  Grant  holders.  They  had  a  barbecue 
at  noon,  with  a  roasted  ox  and  other  eatables,  after 
which  they  marched  to  San  Jose  to  show  the 
strength  of  their  force.  They  were  armed  with 
guns,  pistols  and  pitchforks.  The  Sheriff  made  a 
pacific  speech  to  them,  and  they  went  home.  Gover- 
nor Downey  subsequently  sent  a  peace  commission 
to  confer  with  them  and  an  agreement  to  await 
a  decision  by  the  Supreme  Court  was  arrived  at. 
A  rumor  that  the  gathering  was  for  the  concealed 
purpose  of  assembling  a  Secession  army  caused 
much  concern  throughout  the  State  and  many  peo- 
ple, becoming  unreasonably  alarmed,  demanded  that 
the  Governor  send  the  militia  there  to  disperse  the 
settlers. 

The  California  Central  Railroad,  constructing  its 
line  from  Folsom  to  Marysville,  received  four 
engines  from  the  East  by  way  of  Cape  Horn  and 
was  having  them  set  up  for  use  in  the  near  future. 
They  were  wood  burners  and  weighed  twenty-six 
tons.  Col.  C.  L.  Wilson,  the  promoter  of  the  enter- 
prise, promised  to  have  the  road  in  operation  to 
Marysville  inside  of  one  year. 

Ground  was  broken  on  April  29th  for  the  con- 
struction of  a  railroad  from  San  Jose  to  San  Fran- 
cisco. 

River   Boat   Races    Create   Interest. 

On  April  10th,  a  new  river  steamer  named 
"Nevada,"  was  put  on  as  an  opposition  line  with 
the  "John  L.  Wright,"  between  San  Francisco  and 
Sacramento,  and  a  series  of  exciting  boat  races 
during  the  montn  ensued.  The  steamer  ' '  Ante- 
lope,"  of  the  regular  line,  on  April  11th,  was  the 
first  to  make  a  speed  contest  with  the  "Nevada," 
and  several  hundred  people  gathered  on  the  levee 
at  Sacramento  to  witness  the  departure  of  the 
steamers  and  wagered  several  thousand  dollars  on 
the  result.  The  "Antelope"  won,  making  the  trip 
in  six  hours  and  forty-five  minutes,  while  the 
"Nevada"  used  seven  hours  and  five  minutes.  On 
the  next  run  the  boats  came  in  collision  near 
Steamboat  Slough,  and  the  ' ( Antelope ' '  had  to 
be  withdrawn  from  the  line.  The  "Chrysopolis" 
was  put  in  its  place,  and  on  April  22nd  it  made  the 
run  from  Sacramento  to  San  Francisco  in  exactly 
six  hours,  while  the  "Nevada"  oised  six  hours  and 
thirty  minutes.  The  best  run  of  the  rival  steamers 
was  made  on  April  26th,  the  time  of  the  "Chrys-

THE  KING'S  HIGHWAY. 


UK  KING'S  HIGHWAY"— EL  CA- 
mino  Real — by  John  S.  M-cGroarty, 
is  one  of  the  artistic  little  books  of 
tin'  year,  The  poetry  is  contributed 
by  the  author  and  the  pictures  are 
by  Laugdou  Smith.  Some  idea  of 
the  dainty  verse  may  be  gained 
from  ;i  few  sjtanzas  given  below,  but 
one  must  see  the  book  to  appreciate 
the  art    creations: 

* '  All    in   the   golden     weather,    forth 
let  us  ride  toda\  . 
You  and   1   together  on  the  King's  Highway, 
The  blue  skies  above  us  and  below  the  shining  sea; 
There's   many   a    road    to   travel,   but   it's   the   road 
fur   me. 

It  *s  a  long  road  and  sunny,  it  "s  :i  long  mad  ;iud  old, 

And  the  brown  padres  made  it  for  the  flocks  of  t  in- 
fold; 

They  made  it  for  tin-  sandals  of  the  sinner  folk  that 
trod 

From  the  fields  in  the  open  to  the  shelter-house  of 
God. 

Wo  will  take  the  road  together  through  the  morn 
ing's  golden  glow; 

And  we'll  dream  of  those  who  trod  it  in  the  mel- 
lowed  long  ago; 

We  will  Btop  :n  tin-  Missions  where  the  sleeping 
padi  es   lay, 

And  we'll  bend  a  knee  above  them  for  their  souls' 
sake  to  pray. 

We  will  ride  through  the  valleys  where  the  blos- 
som 's  on  the  tree, 

Through  tin:  orchards  and  the  meadows  witli  the 
bird  and  the  bee, 

And  we  'II  take  the  rising  hills  where  the  mauza 
nitas    grow, 

Past  the  gray  tails  of  waterfalls  where  blue  vio- 
lets  blow." 


THE  DAY  OF  SOULS. 

Charles  Tenney  Jackson's  late  novel.  ' '  The  Day 
n!'  SoulSj ' '  deals  with  that  phase  of  life  in  San 
Francisco  which  all  thinking  people  must  be  fa- 
miliar with,  if  they  are  ever  to  do  their  part  in 
helping  to  redeem  people  from  wrong  ways  of  liv- 
ing. Ihose  who  figure  in  this  story  are  interested 
in  prizefighting,  horseracing,  dance  halls,  corrupt 
politics  and  all  that  has  to  do  with  slum  life  and 
graft  in  general.  It  is  not  a  book  of  the  hour,  but 
it  sets  one  to  thinking  of  some  of  the  mighty  im- 
portant questions  which  all  of  us  have  to  do  with 
indirectly,  if  not  directly,  and  out  of  this  careful 
thinking  the  result  for  good  can  scarcely  be  esti- 
mated. Far  reaching  and  in  many  directions  will 
its  influence  be  felt,  for  we  do  not  have  to  go  to 
San  Francisco  to  begin  the  work  each  one  may  be 
led  to  do;  Midi  conditions  are  to  be  found  almost 
e\  erywhere. 

The  hero  of  the  story,  Jack  Arnold,  has  run  the 
whole  gamut  of  experiences  which  the  "man  of  the 
world"  encounters.  The  story  opens  with  a  sweet, 
innocent  Mendocino  County  girl  madly  in  love  with 
him.  She  has  come  to  San  b'rancisco  to  marry  him, 
hut  at  the  last  minute  we  are  made  to  see,  "There's 
so  much  good  in  the  worst  of  us,"  for  Jack  tells 
her  it  would  be  wrong  for  him  to  marry  her,  be- 
cause he  does  not  love  her.  She,  with  childish 
faith  in  him  and  her  great  love  for  him,  forces  him 
to  accept  a  large  amount  of  money  from  her,  for 
she  is  a  wealthy  girl.  He  takes  it  for  granted  that 
she  returns  to  her  northern  home.  This  money 
brings  much  trouble  into  Jack's  after  life.  When 
he  is  going  at  a  rapid  pace  down  grade,  Grac? 
Wayne,  a  street  evangelist,  comes  into  his  life  in 
a  peculiar  way.  Now  the  long  struggle  begins  and 
we  find  Jack  saying,  "I  suppose  every  fellow  thinks 
that  women  could  keep  a  man  to  the  best  in  him  if 
they  tried — but  most  of  them  never  tried  with  me. 
I  was  good  to  laugh  with  and  at  when  the  lights 
shown  bright,  but  when  the  dark  days  came  I  saw 

how    it    was.  ' ' 

A  third  woman  figures  prominently  in  this  story. 
She   is   Nella   Free,    whose   life   has   been   on    much 


WHEN  GOD  LAUGHS. 

''When   God    1-aughs,'"  one   Of   Jack    I Imi's    late 

books,  is  a  collection  of  twelve  shorl  -torn--,  the 
first   giving   to   the   book   its  title.     This   first    storj 

deals    with    the    subject     of    li.\e    in    a     way    s,onewliat 

unusual    in   a    story.      A    storj    showing    what   detei 
minatioii    will   accomplish,   however   improbable   the 
overcoming  of  an   ob  tacle   may   seem,   le   "A    Nose 

for  the  King. "  This  is  a  i  hinese  atory,  as  well  as 
another  entitled  "The  Chinago."  Here  we  find  a 
story  written,  evidently,  to  show  how  unjustly  the 
white  man  deals  with  the  Chinaman.  ''An  Apos 
tate"  makes  a  strong  appeal.  The  writer  has  given 
us  a  story  which  grips  the  heart- strings,  a  human 
study — child-labor  in  factories.  Johnny,  the  hero 
of  this  little  story,  will  not  soon  pass  from  our 
minds.  "When  God  Laughs"  is  a  collection  of 
stories   well   up   to  Jack    London's  standard. 


A  NEW  BOCK  BY  GEORGE  HAMLIN  FITCH. 

Sunday  alter  Sunday,  for  a  period  of  time  C0\ 
ering  many  yeais.  have  literary  people  all  over  this 
State  found  pleasure  and  profit  m  reading  that  pari 
of  the  book  page  of  the  San  Francisco  Chronicle 
for  which  they  were  indebted  to  George  Hamlin 
Fitch.  Recently  he  was  suddenly  deprived  by  death 
of  the  companionship  of  Ins  only  son,  Harold,  and 
in  the  hours  of  his  sorrow  he  turned  to  his  familiar 
book  shelves  for  solace.  In  the  hist  days  of  his 
loneliness  he  addressed  to  his  readers  a  touching 
tribute  to  his  son.  The  title  of  this  was.  "Comfort 
Found  in  Good  Old  Books."  ilis  many  friends  ex 
pressed  such  an  appreciation  of  this  essay  that  he 
has  continue-...  to  write  along  similar  I  me-.  Now 
it  will  be  a  great  pleasure  to  his  readers  to  learn 
of  the  publication  of  a  number  of  these  essays  at 
an  early  date  under  the  title,  "Comfort  Found  in 
Good   <>ld   Books." 


SOUVENIR  POSTALS. 

A  pretty  idea  has  originated  with  Henry  Meade 
Bland,  president  of  the  Pacific  Shorl  Story  Club, 
San  Jose,  'i  he  plan  which  he  has  pu1  into  exe 
cution  is  making  up  souvenir  postals,  tin  the  first 
series  issued  .s  a  picture  of  a  number  of  the  mem 
bers  of  the  club  at  Joaquin  Miller's  home,  the  poel 
reciting  "Columbus'5  to  them.  On  the  next  series 
is  a  picture  of  -lack  London's  home.  This  plan 
Mr.  Bland  intends  to  carry  out  until  he  has  gone 
tne  rounds  of  the  leading  writers  of  California.

the  "  Nevada"  five  hours  and  fifty  minutes.  The 
"Nevada"  occasionally  made  the  best  run  and  it 
soon  became  evident  that  the  steamer  that  got  away 
first  would,  with  the  advantage  of  blocking  the 
passage  down  the  river,  have  prestige  that  would 
enable  it  to  win  the  race.  It  was  freely  predicted 
a  steamboat  boiler  explosion  would  occur,  but  none 
did. 

Seven  hundred  and  twenty  head  of  cattle  sold

THE   PALACE   WHERE   FLOWERS   ARE   MADE. 

HO  WANTS  TO  HEAR  ABOUT  A 
palace  they  can  have  for  their  own, 
and  keep  to  share  with  others  as 
long  as  they  live?  Why,  of  course, 
everybody! 

Listen,  then,  while  I  tell  you  about 
such  a  one,  for  I  am  willing  to  give 
the  story  to  you  the  same  as  it  was 
given  to  rue,  for  it  is  a  palace  of 
the  MEMORY  and  of  the  IMAGI- 
NATION which  no  one  can  ever 
take  away  from  you,  and  which  will 
never  be  destroyed  by  flood,  nor  by  fires,  nor  even 
by   earthquake. 

It  was  given  to  me  for  my  own  when  I  was  a 
little  girl  and  lived  up  in  the  heights  of  the  snowy 
mountains  of  tne  Sierras,  in  Esmeraldo  County, 
Nevada.  My  brother  Bub  and  I  were  very  fond 
of  wandering  up  and  down  in  our  canyon  and  pick- 
ing flowers,  especially  the  wild  roses,  to  fetch  in 
to  our  mother.  Somehow  I  never  see  a  wild  rose 
today  without  thinking  o^  her,  for  she  loved  them 
so,  and  was  always  to  us  like  a  beautiful  picture 
herself — with  her  waving  bands  of  satiny  black 
hair  parted  in  the  center  and  her  slate-colored  dark 
eyes  shining  full  of  love.  I  remember  the  day  when, 
in  her  snowy  white  muslin,  she  stooped  to  the 
floor,  picked  up  something,  and  holding  it  in  her 
hand,  said:  "But  flowers  must  fade,  and  so  must 
dreams;  mine  had  fled  with  the  moon's  pale  beams, 
hut  the  memory  o 'er  my  heart  is  laid  with  the 
fairy  palace  where  flowers  are  made." 

"Go  on,  mamma,"  said  I,  and  Bub  joined  in,  and 
little  Hal,  who  was  in  frocks  also  wanted  to  know 
more  about  that  dream  of  hers.  Se  she  sat  down, 
gave  lierself  over  to  a  brown  study,  and  tried  to 
remember  where  these  words  had  come  from.  It 
was  a  poem  she  had  learned  when  a  little  girl,  and 
thought  it  was  a  translation  from  the  German. 
Bub  and  I  had  a  high  opinion  of  Germany  because 
we  had  so  many  fairy  stories  that  had  come  from 
that  land.  With  the  faded  spray  of  wild  rose  in 
her  hand,  she  sought  in  every  corner  of  the  caves 
of  memory,  like  a  seadiver  after  pearls,  seeking 
for  the  verses  of  the  lost  poem.  I  remember  how 
she  started  to  sing  it,  in  order  to  recall  it,  and 
we  learned  the  song  while  she  was  bringing  it  baek, 
verse  by  verse.  And  when  we  got  all  of  it,  I  took 
it  up  town,  to  the  editor  of  the  Esmeralda  Star, 
who  was  a  friend  of  mine  (he  having  published  a 
story  of  mine  already  when  I  was  ten  years  old), 
and  then  everybody  in  town  had  a  copy  of  the 
beautiful  thing.  For  everybody  was  very  fond 
of  poetry  in  those  days,  and  the  proudest  miner  was 
the  one  with  most  poets  in  his  cabin.  And  I  know 
what  I  am  talkin  about,  for  I  knew  those  men,  and 
they  were  our  playmates,  and  the  copy  of  the  * '  Lady 
of  the  Lake,"  one  grizzled  old  fellow  gave  me,  I 
have  to  this  very  day. 

But  time  passed.  How  shall  I  express  to  your 
minds  the  days,  and  the  months,  and  the  years,  so 
that  you  can  understand?  That  mining-camp  van- 
ished from  the  map;  those  good-hearted  miners 
were  no  more;  the  lovely  mother  in  her  snowy 
white  muslin  had  joined  the  throngs  beloved  and 
dear  beyond;  and  I,  far  away  from  the  Pacific 
<  loast,  with  my  own  darling  child  (who  was  an 
invalid)  was  climbing  a  hillside  road  in  New 
Jersey.  All  at  once  I  stooped  and  picked  from  the 
road  a 'poor,  dead  rose,  left  lying  there.  And  I 
said,  "But  flowers  must  fade  and  so  must  dreams." 
(*Go  on,  mamma,"  said  my  young  lady  to  me,  as 
I  had  said  to  my  mother  long  years  before,  in  the 


canyon  of  the  Sierras.  So  I  had  to  go  into  a  brown 
study  for  several  days,  seeking  in  those  caves  of 
memory  and  diving  deep,  to  fetch  up  the  pearl  of 
a  poem  to  her.  And  then  we  made  copies  of  it  and 
sent  to  other  members  of  the  family,  in  memory 
of  my  mother's  birthday. 

Again    time    passed.      To    me    it    seems   like    ages. 
All    my    loved    ones    are    gone.      The    other    day    I 
stooped  and  picked  up  from  the  floor  a  faded  rose. 
"But  flowers  must  fade,"   I  murmured  like  one  in 
a  trance,  and  my  neignbor's  children,  who  are  my 
Deejers,    demanded   at   once,   "Go    on.    Aunt    Ella," 
and  of  course   I   had   to   tell   them  the  whole   story 
of  the  "Palace  Where   Flowers  Are  Made."     And 
from  memory  ^  have  had  to  gather  it  again,  verse 
by  verse,  that  you  all  may  have  it  for  your  very 
^own: 
Far    away    in    an    isle    of    the    Southern    Sea, 
Where    the    wavelets   play   like    childhood   free. 
And   the   crystal    chime   of   silver   bells 
In   the   dewdrop   arch   of   gladness   tells; 
Where  the   tiniest  things  in   the   world   that   be. 
Are   flitting  and   swinging   from   spray  to   tree. 
There  rises  a  palace  with  glittering  dome 
And  this  bright  place  is  the  fairies'  home. 

And  there  one  night  in  my  dreams  I  flew — 

Oh,  a   brighter  dream   I  never  knew! 

They    were    weaving    flowers    of    love    and    song. 

For  a  weary  world,  a  world  of  wrong; 

Each  sat  at   her  loom  while  a  bent   sunbeam 

For  a  shuttle  flew  like  a  lightning-gleam. 

One    spun    a    thread    of    purple-and-gold, 
'Round    the    violet's   eye,    the    robe    to    fold. 
Then    hung  it   with   leaves   of   a   velvet   green, 
A  drapery  fit  for  a  flower  I  ween. 

One   caught   the   aew   of   the   fountain's  lip, 
In    the    darkling    shade   where   willows    sip, 
Then    bevies    of   blossoms    that    love    the    spray 
\»  ere   born   at  the  touch  of  a  bright-eyed   fay. 

One  took  the   veil   of  shadowed  lace 

Where  the  moon   had   hidden   her  smiling  face, 

While  her  witching  glance  was  peering  through — 

As   you've   sometimes   known   a   coquette   to   do. 

Of  this  a  saddened  flower  they  made 

And  it  fell  from  the  loom  a  pale  nightshade. 

With  a   thought    for   the  weary^  a  thought    for   the 

gay, 

Stamped  on  its  leaves  by  a  weeping  fay. 

But    flowers   must    fade,    and    so    must    dreams; 
Mine   had   fled   with    the   moon's   pale    dreams. 
But    the    memory    o'er    my    heart    is    laid, 
With  the  fairy  palace  where  flowers  are  made. 


THE    PIONEER    FATHER. 

Strange  discoveries  come  to  pass  when  one  starts 
out  to  investigate  a  subject  thoroughly.  It  seems 
to  me  I  ought  to  live  for  several  hundred  years  in 
order  to  understand  just  what  was  the  most  im- 
portant thing  done  by  the  throng  who  arrived  in 
the  Golden  State  in  1849.  Long  ago  I  decided  that 
it  was  not  the  gold  nuggets  gather  from  the  soil, 
but  the  wonderful  fruitage  and  crops  that  came 
from  the  seed-planting  that  was  our  greatest  gift 
to  the  world.  For  I  used  to  see  the  miners  giving 
their  last  coin  to  the  Chinese  gardeners  for  the 
cabbages,  onions,  lettuce  and  beets  they  raised  in 
the  alkali  soil  up  in  the  Sierras,  while  the  miners 
were  busy  getting  the  gold  from  the  earth.  And 
the  clever  old  Ching  Chong  used  to  send  the  money 
to  China,  of  course.  It  was  when  our  fruits  and 
grain  were  put  on  the  market  to  feed  the  people 
far  away  that  our  money  came  home  to  ourselves. 

But  now  I  am  learning  of  other  things  which  I 
never  appreciated  before — one  being  the  stand 
taken  by  the  Pioneer  Father  in  the  early  days. 
I  feel  now  that  we  should  put  up  a  statue  to  him, 
the  father  of  the  family;  first,  before  we  erect  the 
monument  to  the  Pioneer  Mother.  And  I  will  tell 
you  why:  Because  it  was  he  who  made  her  poss- 
ible. He  brought  with  him,  from  his  Eastern  home, 
the  ideal  of  family — life  as  he  knew  it  in  his  own 
tribe.  He  found  plenty  of  dusky  beauties  here  in 
California  with  whom  he  could  have  mated,  but 
he  kept  true  to  his  racial  instinct,  and  waited  for 
one  like  his  own  people  to  arrive  with  later  fam- 
ilies, or  returned  East  himself  in  search  of  her. 
He  started  right — that  was  a  great  point  in  favor 
of  the  early  family  of  California.  And  then  when 
he  married  and  set  up  housekeeping  there  was  noth- 
ing uncertain  about  his  being  the  captain  of  the 
ship.  We  very  soon  learned  what  a  chalk-line  was, 
and  how  to  walk  it.  There  was  nothing  pampered 
about  us. 


There  were  difficulties  to  grapple  with  in  those 
days.  Flour  went  up  to  thirty-six  dollars  a  barrel 
once,  and  there  was  a  famine  on  for  a  while  in 
the  little  mining-camp  so  far  away  from  supplies. 
The  silver-and-gold  rocks  went  in  one  end  of  the 
great  quartz  nulls  and  oozed  out  of  the  other  end 
back  into  the  earth  again,  leaving  very  little  of 
the  precious  minerals  in  the  hands  of  the  workers, 
for  lack  of  proper  processes  to  retain  it  (which  have 
s^nce  been  discovered).  And  of  course  the  town 
went  down.  .Single  men  could  put  their  rolls  of 
blankets  on  their  backs  and  take  up  the  tramp  to 
the  nearest  new  diggings — for  of  course  mining  had 
everybody  under  its  thrall.  But  I  leave  it  to  you 
how  could  a  man  with  five  children  and  a  wife  get 
out  of  town  from  a  dead  and  buried  mining-camp? 
Vet  it  was  the  married  man  with  a  family  who  was 
the  one  who  lived  to  be  and  do  something  later  on! 
That  is  the  strange  part  of  the  story.  The  single 
men  could  keep  on  tramping  until  they  fell  into 
unknown  graves  by  the  wayside,  and  no  one  knew 
they  were  gone.  But  the  Pioneer  Father  became 
alert  and  wary,  for  he  had  to  consider  his  brood. 
And  if  ever  there  was  an  aristocrat  on  these  shores 
it  was  certainly  ne,  with  his  proud  bearing  and 
mighty  prowess.  Others  might  get  out  of  town 
by  hook  or  crook,  but  I  remember  how  my  father 
mounted  his  horse  and  went  to  a  place  whence  the 
sound  of  mighty  hammers  were  even  then  smiting 
the  mountain  breezes  and  laid  out  the  town  of 
Reno,  and  gave  the  Fourth  of  July  oration  in  the 
new  center  of  trade,  and  thus  became  a  railroad 
man.  Then  in  all  splendor  he  arrived  with  a  private 
equipage  and  two  fine  horses  and  took  his  family 
away  amid  a  gathered  crowd  to  bid  them  fare- 
well, while  a  prairie-schooner  followed  containing 
the  piano  and  other  household  goods.  It  was  al- 
ways like  that.     He  was  equal  to  everything. 

When  he  built  a  home  for  his  tribe  it  was  sub- 
stantial and  lasting.  There  the  mother  found  her 
woman's  kingdom  secure  to  enjoy  the  sunset-time 
Ox  her  life,  with  all  that  art  and.  culture  could  give 
her.  There  she  was  safe  from  contact  with  the 
black  and  dismal  void  of  the  outside  world.  If 
he  was  captain  of  the  ship,  he  also  bore  the  brunt 
of  the  storms.  And  when  she  was  gone  from  his 
side,  ne  who  had  always  been  faithful  tried  to  take 
her  place  and  hold  the  children  together  as  she 
had  done,  with  the  tears  rolling  down  his  cheekc 
as  he  pleaded  with  them  to  forgive  each  other  for 
fanciea  grievances,  such  as  brothers  and  sisters 
sometimes  fall  heir  to  for  her  sake.  And  who 
could  resist  such  eloquence  as  that'  I  cannot  think 
of  tne  one  without  the  other.  And  when  in  death 
they  are  again  united,  shall  they  not  still  stand 
side  by  side  for  that  example  of  integrity,  and 
womanhood,  and  manhood  which  shall  always  be 
the   proudest   boast   of   our  State   of  California.' 


WEDDING   OF    THE   WATERS. 
Their  troth  they  plight  in  tropic  zone; 
O,  marriage  pledged  for  e'er  and  aye! 
Great   gleaming   seas,  becoming  one, 
Are  wed   'neath  Neptune's  tridents'  sway — 
This  pledge  of  faith  on   marriage  morn. 
World   hosts  are  witnessing  with   pride; 
In  greatest  honor  loud  are  borne 
Felicitations  o'er  the  tide! 

Athwart  the  gate  loud  breakers  boom — 
"Stamp  seal  on  Enterprise,  Most  High, 
With  nuptial  kiss,  O  bride  and  groom!" 
While  plead  the  sponsors — Earth  and  Sky — 
"O,  Infinite!      On   bridal  pair 
Pour  benedictions  o'er  and  o'er! 
And  may  this  union  ever  bear 
Largess  to  all,  forevermore!  " 

And  now,   in  rev 'rant  attitude 
With  pledged  troth  at  fount  of  grace. 
The   twain    awaits   an    interlude 
Of  ecstacy,  which   comes  apace! 
Uniting  thus,   the   bridal   twain

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


What  the  Schools  Can  Do  for  California  Products 

(By  DR.  C.  V.  CROSS,  Chairman  Schools  Committee,   Home   Industry  League   of  California.) 


HAT    VOU    ADOPT    AS     \     NATION 

yOU      Hill:    1      Hi  St      pill       illto     !  be     Schools 

Thai  is  w  hat  Bismarck  of  <  retina  nj 
sniil.  It  has  been  immortalized,  and 
today  i  be  <  ferman  nut  ion  baa  made 
famous  the  motto,  ' '  Made  in  '  ler 
many.JI  The  school  children  from 
in  fancy,  in  '  !erinauy,  bave  been 
taughl  fco  n  cogn  i  ae  I  be  i  adust  rial 
resou  i  ces  of  1  ba  i  Dal  ion.  They  ha  t  e 
been  given  specific  and  general  his- 
tory of  i  be  products  I  ba  I  are  man 
afactured  there.  They  have  been  drilled  in  the  tac- 
tics of  tin-  army,  and  the  man  grown  has  to  spend 
liis  three  years  helping  to  build  up  the  standing 
army  of  thai  nation.  They  have  built  and  are 
building  up  the  bodies  to  be  able  physically,  as 
well  :is  mentally,  to  meet  the  various  conditions  'it' 

business.       Like    the    Greeks    of    old.    they     believe    ;i 

Bound  body  "ill  make  a  sound  mind,  and  are  teach- 
ing such.  In  fact,  everything  that  is  being  adopted 
by  the  nation  is  taught   to  the  children.     They  are 

part  icularly   schooled   in    the  crafts  of  the  different 

i  ii. Inst  i  i.'- 

This  points  out  more  forcibly  than  anything 
that  we.  too,  as  a  State,  as  a  Nation,  should  teach 
our  children  the  necessil  ies  and  requirements  of 
the  practical  side  of  life,  dealing  in  the  producing 
and  manufactured  products.  This  has  been  brought 
about  in  the  German  nation  for  the  very  good 
reason  t  hat  they  who  lead  the  world  in  I  he  home 
industry  campaign,  and  who  have  secured  the 
greatest  export  trade  of  the  nations  of  the  world. 
are  just  as  strongly  fortified  as  home  producers 
and  home  industry  advocates,  for,  through  being 
loyal  to  their  own  country,  they  have  taught  the 
value  of  the  commodity  marked,  ' ' Made  in  < Ger- 
many. 

Through  their  insistent  campaign,  their  export 
business,  and  the  amount  of  cheap  airicles  the]  can 
produce  because  manufacturing  in  great  volume, 
the  German  nation  has  brought  to  the  attention 
of  Great  Britain  and  France  thet  they,  too,  must 
institute  similar  campaigns,  of  "Made  in  Great 
Britain*'  and  ''Made  in  Prance"  products  if  they 
arc  to  compete  with  their  German  neighbors.  As  a 
result,  today  Great  Britain  is  making  the  strongest 
campaign  ever  made  in  her  history  for  those  com- 
modities that  are  marked,  "Made  in  Great  Brit- 
ain," and  advocating  in  every  city  and  country  of 
the  British  Isles  the  use  of  Great  Britain  products. 
France  lias  done  the  same.  They  must  do  it.  to 
in <  ft  the  constant  hammering  and  persistency  of 
the   German   industrial   representatives. 

Why  "Made  in  California?" 
And  then  it  is  wondered  by  many  why  we,  away 
out  on  the  western  coast  of  America,  as  a  State, 
have  instituted  a  campaign  soliciting  the  pat ron- 
age  of  "Made  in  California"  products.  And  yet 
we,  as  only  a   state,  are  criticised  in  a  great  many 

ways  l.ecanse  we  are  protecting  our  own.  and  try- 
ing to  advance  the  products  that  are  manufactured 
and  produced   in   California. 

'iieat  Britain  and  France  have  also  taken  up  the 
campaign  through  the  schools,  for  the  reason  that 
they  are  beginning  to  realize  the  necessity  of  teach 
ing  the  young  that  the  purchasing  power  of  the 
nation  ami  the  loyalty  to  their  own  products  must 
first  be  created  in  their  own  country  before  they 
can  advocate  the  use  of  their  products  by  the  rest 
of  the  world.  But  Germany  has  had  the  start  of 
all  the  other  nations.  It  has  been  teaching  the 
children  for  years  the  absolute  necessity  of  learning 
and  creating  a  demand  for  goods  "Made  in  Ger- 
many." Its  children  have  been  taught  the  use  of 
its  products — the  utilization  of  its  natural  resour- 
ces— with  such  rare  economic  wisdom  that  it  has 
naturally  created  a  greater  demand  for  German 
products,  more  reasonable  labor,  a  decreased  cost 
of  producing,  and  with  the  masterful  finish  of  the 
manufactured  product  that  has  made  the  magic 
words,  "Made  in  Germany"  a  by-word  all  over 
the  world.  There  are  very  few  of  us  today  who 
are  not  using,  wearing  and  eating  something  that 
is   not    marked    "Made    in    Germany." 

The  educational  features,  the  systematic  indus- 
trial routine  of  German  advancement  has  been  the 
means  of  making  that  nation  felt  commercially  all 
over  the  globe.  Its  representatives  can  be  seen 
working  in  the  farthermost  parts  of  the  world,  in 
places  where  Americans  and  other  nationalities 
never  think  of  visiting  and  advocating  their  wares. 
In  tne  Philippines,  in  the  Orient,  in  Alaska,  in  all 
the  -ities  ami  countries  contiguous  to  California,  we 
timl  the  German  representatives  predominate  over 
those  of  any  other  nation.  And  yet  Germany,  in 
its    entity,    is    very    little    larger    than    the   State    of 


California.  It  has  not  half  the  natural  resources, 
t he  splendid  climatic  conditions,  the  etfergy,  the 
progress! veness,  am.  the  characteristic  American 
i  .'J  stiefc  to  ''  iveness.  sun  its  people  have  made 
themselves  fell  commercially  all  over  the  world. 
And  win  '     Because  they  firsl   developed   at    home. 

Campaign    to    Educate    School    Children. 

The     leader     may    ask,     however,    "What     has    tins 

to  do  with  what  California  is  doing  foi  homo  in 
dustry'"     It    is   introduced   as  a   subject    to   prove 

that    we.    in    California,    must    emulate    il sample 

of  Germany  by  teaching  the  young  Californians 
that  they  too  must  learn  the  conditions  affecting 
the  natural  reSOUrCOS  of  the  State,  the  de\  elopinent 
of  same  and  the  finished  product,  and  introduce  to 
our  readers  that  the  Mom.'  [ndustry  League  of  Cal- 
ifornia has  taken  up  as  a  preliminary  campaign  of 
instruction  a  composition  on  "Home   Industry"  and 

"Made  in  California"  to  be  written  by  the,scl I 

children  of  the  State,  beginning  in  San  Francisco. 
The  Home  Industry  League  has  there  instituted  a 
campaign  that,  compared  with  everything  else,  far 
surpasses  anything  ever  attempted  in  the  schooling 
of  the  children  as  to  the  products  made  in  Cali- 
fornia.    Think  what   it  would  mean  if  we  could  get 

300, »  school  children  of  the  State,  as  we  are  going 

to  do,  working,  buying,  writing  and  telling  then 
people  aboul   "Made  in  California"  products. 

Lei  this  campaign  he  taken  up  in  every  part  of 
our  State.  Let  it  begin  as  an  institution  of  the 
Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters,  as  well  as  the 
Home  Industry  League,  for  they,  too,  the  State's 
sons  and  daughters,  are  vitally  interested  in  their 
children's  ami  the  State's  development,  and  this  de- 
velopment is  1  o  be  better  protected  through  the 
education  of  the  children  working  toward  that  end. 
It  means  their  future,  it  means  to  provide  for  their 
future.  It  will  be  the  future  successful  develop- 
ment of  California  and  its  great  resources.  It  has 
the  advantage  of  teaching  them  that  they  must  de- 
pend upon  their  Immediate  surroundings  for  their 
livelihood.  It  will  teach  them  to  know  the  value 
of  every  dollar  kept  in  this  State.  It  will  teach 
them  how  to  increase  the  value  of  their  property, 
and  the  sale  of  their  products  and  the  purchasing 
of  -.line,  and  more  than  anything  else,  it  will  cre- 
ate for  them  and  theirs  increased  population,  on 
wiiich  the  development  of  the  State  must  depend. 
The  advantages  to  be  gained  are  so  many  ami  va  - 
i-ii'd  that  the  logical  and  economic  force  that  will 
be  brought  to  bear  as  a  result  of  the  children's 
campaign  will  be  the  most  fruitful  ever  attempted. 
That  is  what  the  Home  Industry  League  is  doing. 
It  has  started  a  campaign  of  education  that  will 
and   should  become   statewide. 

Advantages  of  Educating  the  Child. 
To  better  explain  the  advantages  and  the  educa- 
tional   features    to    I btained   through    writing   on 

California  products,  the  writer  submits  the  follow- 
ing proposition  which  was  sent  to  all  the 
school  children  in  the  city  of  San  Francisco  for  a 
composition  contest  which  closed  March  -W st  and 
which,  more  than  anything  else,  expresses  and  de- 
fines the  work  necessary  for  the  school  children, 
if  they  answer  successfully  the  questions  submit- 
ted: 

To  the  pupils  of  the  E  Eighth  Grade  and 
High  Schools:  For  the  purpose  of  inter- 
esting   the    Students    of    tin'    schools    in    I 

industry,  and  to  create  a  greater  patron 
age  for  "Made  in  California"  goods,  we 
request  the  E  Eighth  Grade  and  High 
School  pupils  to  write  a  composition,  not 
to  exceed  five  hundred  words,  on  the  sub- 
ject. "Made  in  California."  The  student 
writing  a  composition  judged  to  be  the 
best  among  all  the  P.  Eighth  Grade  pupils 
will  be  given  a  prize  of  one  hundred  dol- 
lars. The  pupil  writing  the  composition 
judged  to  be  the  best  among  all  the  High 
Scl I    pupils    will    be    given    a    prize    of   one 

hundred   dollars.     Other    valuable  and  use- 
ful prizes  will   be  given  for  the  best  compo- 
sition   from    each   school,    in   addition   to  the 
two  first  prizes.     Competent  judges  will  be 
selected  to  judge   the  best  compositions. 
The   best    three   compositions    in    every   class   will 
be  selected  with  the  aid  of  the  teacher  by  the  prin- 
cipal of  the  different   schools,  and  then  sent  to  the 
office    of    the    Home    Industry    League    of    California 
to  be  finally  judged.     The  names  of  the  winners  of 
tin*  prizes  will  Vie  published  at  the  earliest  date  pos- 
sible after  March  :ilst.     The  following  questions  on 
the  subject    matter   were   requested   to  be  answered 
oy  the  pupils   in  their  composition: 

First— What  are  the  natural  resources  of  the 
.Mate    of    California?      What    would     be      the      best 


according   to     your     judgment,    to    develop 
these   resource   I 

s« nd     How    many    different     commodities     are 

manufactured  in  the  stale  of  Californial  By  this, 
we  mean  those  products  that  are  finished  and  made 
ready  for  the  market.  I'"  nol  enumerate  them;

tinue  in  Cos  great  workl  How  can  the  developing 
of  home  industry  improve  the  general  business  con

Fourth-  How  can  you,  by  your  personal  effort, 
assist  in  the  consumption  of  the  products  of  Cali- 
fornia   manufacture? 

How  Many  Home  Products  in  Your  Home? 

Fifth — How     many     home     products     an-     used      in 

your  home?  Give  number,  llow  many  Eastern  1 
To  which  do  you  believe  should  be  given  prefer 
oncel      Why? 

Sixth — Why  did  I  he  Home  Industry  League  of 
California   hold  "Made  in  California  Week,'" 

Seventh — How  can  you  encourage  converting  raw 
material  into  manufactured  products  ready  for  the 
market? 

Eighth — If  the  home  industry  movement  of  Cal- 
ifornia could  greatly  increase  the  number  of  fnc 
tories  in  the  State  of  California,  resulting  in  the 
employment  of  thousands  of  additional  factory 
hands,  what  effect  would  it  have  on  the  prosperity 
of  youT  father's  business? 

Ninth — If  it  is  impossible  to  increase  the  number 
of  factories  in  the  State  of  California,  what  em- 
ployment would  you  suggest  for  the  increased  pop- 
ulation  that    we  expect  during  the  next  ten 'years? 

Hesoles  the  above  composition  that  has  been  sub- 
mitted to  the  schools,  the  Home  Industry  League 
is  sending  manufacturers  of  the  different  lines  of 
industry  to  talk  before  the  school  children.  Alto 
gether,  they  have  covered  something  like  forty  dif- 
ferent schools  where  the  children,  assembled  in  the 
assembly-room  or  in  the  school  yard,  have  listened 
to  the  subject,  "Why  they  should  buy  goods  made 
in  California.'*  This  has  been  the  means  of  spread- 
ing the  gospel  of  home  industry  in  a  way  that 
could  not  be  secured  through  any  other  method. 
The  teachers  and  the  Board  of  Education  of  San 
Francisco  gave  the  greatest  co-operation  to  the 
movement,  and  are  using  every  means  to  facilitate 
the  work  of  |  he   League. 

Special  days  have  been  set  aside  when  the  child- 
ren will  visit  the  different  factories,  thus  giving 
them  a  practical  picture — illustrative  knowledge 
that  will  be  most  lasting  for  the  reason  the  im- 
pressions gained  will  convey  to  them  the  real  mean- 
ing of  what  "Made  in  California"  symbolizes — 
and  thus  the  good  work  goes  on.  In  the  manual 
training  school,  whicn  the  manufacturers  are  sup- 
plying with  raw  and  finished  products  and  descrip- 
tion of  same,  arrangements  are  being  made  to  use 
slides,  stereopticon  views  and  moving  pictures 
showing    the    raw    and    finished    article. 


TO  AID  IN  BUILDING  MONUMENT 

TO    HISTORIC    DONNER   PARTY. 

Governor  Hiram  Johnson  has  approved  with  his 
signature  Assembly  bill  No.  1540,  introduced  by 
Assemblyman  Frank  M,  Kutherford  of  Truckee,  a 
Grand  Trustee  of  the  X.s.n.W.,  appropriating 
$5000  of  State  funds  toward  the  erection  of  the 
Donner  monument   in   Truckee  Pass. 

The  Native  Sons  have  for  some  years  had  in  hand 
the  erection  of  this  testimonial  to  the  brave  band 
of  pioneer  men  and  women  who  made  up  the  Don- 
ner Party,  and  who  suffered  untold  agonies  at  the 
spot  where  the  monument  is  to  be  erected.  The 
granite  base  for  the  monument  is  already  in  place, 
having  1 n  erected  by  the  Native  Sons  and  fitting- 
ly dedicated  during  the  Grand  Parlor  session  at 
Lake   Tahoe   last   June. 

Considerable  funds  have  been  accumulated  by 
the  Grand  Parlor's  Donner  Monument  Committee, 
of  which  Dr.  ( '.  YV.  Chapman  of  Nevada  City  is 
chairman,  and  with  the  liberal  financial  assistance 
just  given  by  the  State,  and  the  raising  of  addi- 
tional funds  in  various  ways  Ln  contemplation  by 
the  committee,  the  work  of  erecting  the  testimo- 
nial will  now  be  carried  forward  without  further 
d-l:i\  and  the  Donner  Monument  will  soon  be  an 
accomplished  fact. 


It    is   claimed   that    marriage   is   a    lottery,   but   it

A  RANK  FAKE  STORY 

The  Los  Angeles  Herald  of  March  19th  had  a 
story  headed  "California  Bear  Flag  and  Story  of 
Its  Origin"  which,  although,  well  featured,  is  de- 
void of  any  semblance  of  truth,  and  the  historical 
"faets"  in  which  would  bring  the  blush  of  shame 
to  any  California  schoolboy.  The  paper  claims  to 
have  received  its  story  of  the  Bear  Flag's  origin 
from  one  "Bishop"  S.  J.  Schrader,  and  evidently, 
swallowed  the  data  without  investigating  the  cor- 
rectness of  the  statements  therein  contained,  or  the 
reputation  of  the  so-called  bishop  for  truth  and 
veracity. 

The  article  referred  to  states  that  Schrader 's 
father,  Charles  Schrader,  in  early  California  days, 
organized  a  band  of  200  men  to  wrest  California 
from  Mexico,  and  then  proceeds: 

"Immediately  after  organizing  his  com- 
pany he  designed  a  flag  six  by  eight  feet, 
composed  of  white  canvas  down  to  a  red 
border  at  the  bottom,  with  a  red  star  in 
the  left  hand  corner  and  a  black  bear  in 
the  center,  the  border  indicating  the  land, 
the  white  the  ocean,  the  bear  as  the  em- 
blem of  the  country,  designating  it  the  'Bear 
Flag';  the  star  was  to  represent  the  even- 
ing star.  This  flag,  of  which  I  have  a  small 
copy,  my  father  designed  and  used  in  fight- 
ing for  the  Republic  of  California  with  his 
200  men,  which  he  secured  with  some  blood- 
shed June  7,  1S47.  At  10  o'clock  in  the 
morning  he  raised  the  flag  in  Sonoma,  and 
declared  the  independence  of  California  as 
a  republic.  He  was  elected  the  same  day 
and  was  declared  president  of  the  new 
ivepnblic.  The  Republic  retained  its  inde- 
pendence until  July  14th  at  1  o  'clock  in 
the  afternoon,  when  it  became  United 
States  territory.  After  he  had  turned  over 
the  presidency  of  the  Republic  to  the 
United  States  he  went  to  Green  Bay,  Wis., 
where  he  was  married  and  settled  on  a 
farm  in  1848." 

To  begin  with,  the  Bear  Flag  was  not  raised  at 
Sonoma  on  June  7,  1S47.  Any  California  history 
will  show  that  the  Bear  Flag  was  hoisted  June  14, 
1846 — a  3'ear  before  the  elder  Schrader 's  pretended 
coup.  Then  again,  iS'ehrader  did  not  design  the 
Bear  Flag  and,  as  a  matter  of  fact  as  well  as  his- 
tory, was  not  even  a  member  of  the  Bear  Flag 
Party.  According  to  authentic  reports  gathered 
from  those  who  took  part  in  the  Bear  Flag  War, 
the  party  was  made  up  of  Ezekiel  Merritt,  Robert 
Semple,  Henry  L.  Ford,  Samuel  Gibson,  Granville 
P.  Swift,  William  Dickey,  Henry  Booker,  John 
Potter,  William  B.  Ide,  William  Fallon,  William  M. 
Scott,  Henry  Beason,  William  Anderson,  James  A. 
Jones,  W.  Barty  or  "Old  Red,"  Samuel  Weal,  Ben- 
jamin Dewell,  Harvey  Porterfield,  John  Grigsby, 
Frank  Grigsby,  William  B.  Elliott,  Ab  Elliott, 
William  Knignt,  David  Hudson,  Franklin  Bedwell, 
Joseph  Wood,  William  Hargrave,  Andrew  Kelsey, 
Horace  Sanders,  John  H.  Kelly,  John"  Gibbs,  Thomas 
Cowie  and  George  jiowler. 

,  These  men,  under  command  of  Merritt,  took  pos- 
session of  Sonoma  on  June  14,  1846,  and  made 
prisoners  oi  General  M.  G.  Vallejo  and  his  house- 
hold who.  under  escort  of  Merritt  were  taken 
to  Sutter's  Fort  for  safekeeping,  while  William  B. 
Ide  was  left  in  command  at  Sonoma.  Having  thus 
started  a  revolution,  it  was  necessary  to  have  a 
flaer.  hence  the  origin  ojl  the  Bear  Flag.  Who  de- 
signed it.  and  who  participated  in  its  making,  is 
set  forth  in  the  following  account  of  William  G. 
Todd,  who  participated  both  in  the  war  and  the 
making  of  the  flag: 

"I  have  to  say  in  regard  to  the  making 
of  the  original  Bear  Flag  of  California  at 
Sonoma,  in  1846.  that  when  the  Ameri- 
cans, who  had  taken  up  arms  against  the 
Spanish  regime,  had  determined  what  kind 
of  a  flag  should  be  adopted,  the  follow- 
ing persons  performed  the  work:  Granville 
P.  .Swift,  Peter  Storm,  Henry  L.  Ford  and 
myself.  We  procured  in  the  house  where 
we  made  our  headquarters  a  piece  of  new 
unbleached    cotton    domestic,    not    quite    a 


yard  wide,  with  stripes  of  red  flannel  about 
four  inches  wide,,  furnished  by  Mrs.   John 
Sears,  on  tne  lower  side  of  the  canvas.     On 
the  upper  left  hand  corner  was  a  star,  and 
in  the  center  was  the  image  made  to  repre- 
sent a  grizzly  bear  passant,  so  common  in 
this    country   at    the   time.      The   bear   and 
star  were  painted  with  paint  made  of  lin- 
seed   oil     and    Venetian    red    or     Spanish 
brown.     Underneath     the     bear     were     the 
words     'California     Republic'     The     other 
persons  engaged  with  me  got  the  materials 
together    while    I    acted    as    artist.     The 
forms  of  the  bear  and  star  and  the  letters 
were  first  lined  out  with  pen  and  ink  by 
myself,   and   the  two   forms  were   filled  in 
with    the    red    paint,    but    the    letters   with 
ink. ' J 
The  Bear  Flag  was  hauled  down  at  Sonoma   on 
July    9,     1846,    after     Commodore     Sloat     had,     at 
Monterey,    taken    possession    of    California    in    the 
name  of  the  United  States,  and  war  was  declared 
against  Mexico  by  this  country. 

So  much  for  the  historical  mis-statements  of  the 
Herald — for  although  the  article  in  question  pur- 
ports to  come  from  "Bishop"  Schrader,  certainly 
that  paper  should  not  be  excused  for  allowing  such 
glaring  errors  to  creep  into  its  columns,  even  in  a 
quoted  and  featured  story. 

Now  let  us  look  at  this  "Bishop"  Schrader,  and 
see  just  how  much  real  connection  he  has  with 
.bear  Flag  fame:  About  sis  weeks  ago  a  man  who 
introduced  —  mself  as  "Bishop"  Schrader,  wear- 
ing the  robes  of  a  Catholic  priest,  entered  the  Los 
Angeles  office  of  The  Lxrizzly  Bear,  and  his  gaze 
fell  upon  a  small  print  of  the  r>ear  Flag,  which  he 
became  quite  interested  in,  and  made  inquiries  as 
to  what  ^ag  it  was.  In  the  course  of  the  conversa- 
tion, Schrader  was  told  the  history  of  the  Bear 
Flag  and,  as  he  appeared  to  show  more  than  pass- 
ing interest,  was  given  a  print  of  the  flag,  for  which 
he  was  profuse  in  his  thanks.  He  said  he  had  never 
before  seen  the  flag  nor  heard  its  history,  and  in 
these  statements  he  was  evidently  truthful,  else 
he  would  never  have  been  the  author  of  such  a 
fake  story  as  the  one  referred  to  above. 

Accompanying  the  Herald  article  was  a  likeness 
of  Schrader,  holding  a  Bear  Flag  print — the  one 
given  him  in  The  Grizzly  Bear  office,  and  not  a 
"small  copy"  of  the  flag  designed  by  his  father, 
as  the  Herald  article  would  imply.  There  can  be  no 
doubt  that  the  visitor  to  The  Grizzly  Bear  office 
was  the  identical  person  who  furnished  the  Sunday 
feature  for  the  Herald,  for  the  author's  likeness 
accompanies  his  article,  and  cannot  be  mistaken. 

As  to  "Bishop"  Schrader 's  religious  affiliations 
we  know  nothing;  and  we  are  at  a  loss  to  know 
the  reason  for  his  posing  as  the  descendant  of  the 
leader  of  the  Bear  Flag  Party  and  maker  of  the 
original  Bear  Flag.  It  is  safe  to  assume,  however — 
after  considering  the  facts  above  related — that  he 
is  either  in  search  of  cheap  newspaper  notoriety,  or 
an  impostor. 

As  for  the  Herald — it  is  to  laugh. 


DIVISION   OPENLY  ADVOCATED 

Papers  throughout  the  State  have  lately  revived 
the  State  division  ghost,  and  the  funeral  of  the 
Throop  Polytechnic  bill  in  the  Legislature  appears 
to  be  responsible  for  the  attempt  to  raise  that 
bugaboo  from  the  grave.  It  is  generally  reported 
that  never  before  in  the  State's  history  has  State 
division  been  so  frequently  and  openly  discussed 
as  during  the  session  just  ended. 

One  Senator  from  the  southern  part  of  the  State, 
enraged  at  the  non-passage  of  the  bill  making  the 
Throop  Polytechnic  school  a  State  institution,  is 
quoted  as  openly  declaring  that  the  bill's  defeat 
will  result  in  a  campaign  having  for  its  ultimate 
end  a  division  of  California. 

A  Los  Angeles  paper  recently  published  an  edi- 
torial opposing  the  sale  of  the  present  site  of  the 
State  Normal  School  at  Los  Angeles,  on  the  ground 
that  it  would  make  an  ideal  state  capital  building 
when  State  division  is  accomplished. 

Senator  Lee  Gates  of  Los  Angeles,  who  fathered 
the  Throop  bill,   is  quoted  in  the   press  dispatches 


as  making  a  veiled  threat  of  State  division  on  ac- 
count of  the  bill's  defeat.  Here  is  what  he  is  pur- 
ported to  have  said: 

' '  You  gentlemen  of  the   north  feel  that 
you  have  gained  a  great  victory  in  defeat- 
ing our  school.     But  I  fear  you  have  done 
only   harm   to   Berkeley,   where  you   would 
have  done  good.     You  have  sown  the  wind 
and    you    must    reap    the    whirlwind.      Ere 
you  realize,  the  south  will  have  a  university 
of  its  own;   other  institutions  of  its  own. 
This  move  was  an  evil  day  for  Berkeley." 
'ihere  is  no  denying  the  fact  that  the  State  divi- 
sion sentiment  -s  gaining  ground,  and  if  loyal  Cali- 
lormans  wish  to  maintain  the  geographical  lines  of 
their  State  intact  they  must  arouse  themselves  to 
the  situation  and  not  be  peacefully  sleeping  while 
the   army   of   division   goes   marching   on.      And   we 
should    not    overlook    the    fact    that    this    army    is 
generalled    by    keen    politicians    with    whom    State 
division    has    become    a    fanaticism — not    born    of 
especial  love   for   that  portion  of   California   lying 
south  of  Tehaehapi,  however,  but  of  an  overpower- 
ing   desire   to    create    a    state   government    wherein 
they  can  hold  by  proxy  all  the  offices. 

As  to  the  merits  of  the  Throop  bill,  we  know 
nothing,  and  are  not  prepared  to  say  that  its  de- 
feat was  in  the  interest  of,  or  against  the  interests 
of  the  people  of  California.  It  is  childish,  however, 
in  the  legislators  from  "the  southern  part  of  the 
State  to  advocate  and  threaten  State  division  be- 
cause one  of  their  measures  did  not  appeal  to  a 
majority  of  their  co-legislators. 

This  argument  as  to  why  California  should  be 
divided  is  about  as  foolish  as  the  one  advanced  a 
short  time  ago,  when  the  State  Board  of  Equaliza- 
tion saw  fit  to  justly  increase  the  assessment  of 
counties  south  of  Tehaehapi.  Surely  the  main- 
tenance of  California  under  one  state  government  is 
of  more  vital  importance  to  ALL  the  people  of 
California  than  the  success  or  failure  of  the  Throop 
Polytechnic  school,  or  any  similar  proposition. 

State  division  will  never  be  brought  about  by 
holding  it  as  a  club  above  the  heads  of  State  offi- 
cials to  enforce  favorable  consideration  of  measures 
emanating  from  the  southland.  There  is  no  good 
and  sufficient  reason  for  California 's  division,  and 
until  such  good  and  sufficient  reason  does  arise 
the  State  will  remain  intact.  There  is  no  doubt 
that  division  will  be  attempted,  and  it  behooves  all 
REAL  Californians  to  be  on  their  guard,  and  kill 
the  treacherous  State-division  snake  before  it  can 
sneak  from  cover  and  stealthily  accomplish  its  pur- 
pose.

FALSE  TO  CALIFORNIA 

The  "gentleman's  agreement"  in  the  Japanese 
treaty  outrage  may  meet  with  the  approval  of  the 
people  of  the  Eastern  states,  where  the  Japanese 
evil  has  not  made  itself  obnoxious,  but  here  in  Cali- 
fornia it  is  looked  upon  with  anything  but  favor. 
AVhat  excuse  does  our  Legislature  now  offer  for 
permitting  the  Japanese  evil  to  continue  in  Cali- 
fornia unchecked? 

The  parents  of  this  State  have  been  repeatedly 
put  off  with  promises  that  the  National  Government 
would  protect  their  daughters  from  the  evil  of  at- 
tending public  schools  with  Japanese  men.  What 
has  this  promise  amounted  to?  A  "gentleman's 
agreement,"  on  the  part  of  Japan,  that  the  Japan- 
ese invasion  of  California  will  be  curbed.  How 
much  consolation  can  you,  as  a  parent,  with  your 
young  daughter  attending  public  school  as  a  daily 
associate  of  Japanese  men,  get  out  of  this  agree- 
ment? 

The  National  Government  has  been  false  to  the 
people  of  California,  .in  that  it  has  considered  the 
interests  of  Japan  paramount  to  the  interests  of 
the  people  of  this  State.  Why,  therefore,  should 
our  legislators  further  put  off  doing  that  which  they 
are  in  duty  bound  to  do  for  the  protection  of  the 
people  whom  they  are  supposed  to  represent — name- 
ly, the  passage  of  laws  prohibiting  the  attendance  of 
Japanese  at  the  same  public  school  with  white  girls, 
and  prohibiting  Japanese  from  acquiring  title  to 
land?

During  a  recent  controversy  in  Los  An-

bears  or  lions  should  ornament  an  artistic 
bridge,  and  in  which  the  Native  Sons,  Native

My    Dear    Mr.    Claridge: 

Thanks  for  your  note  of  the  28th  of  Janu- 
ary. The  '"Sons"  and  "Daughters"  are  in 
a  g 1  crusade  for  the  preservation  of  Cali-

steam  in  your  punch! 

CoroJally  yours, 

Robert  J.   Burdette. 
February   2nd. 


The  grizzly  bears  lost,  we  are  sorry  to  say, 
and  columns  will  ornament  the  bridge. 
As  Mr.  Burdette  says,  our  crusade  for  things 
Californian  is  a  good  one,  but  if  we  will  put 
a  Httle  moil'  of  our  own  efforts  behind  our 
movements,  and  not  depend  so  much  upon  the 
gods  of  our  forefathers  to  win  our  victories, 
we  will  make  all  things  in  this  State,  Cali- 
fornian.

was   born    in    Los    Angeles,   January 

1880,   was   educated   in   the   public   schools,   and 


graduated  from  the  law  department  of  I  he  I  nj 
versity  of  Virginia.  In  1905  he  was  wedded  to 
Miss  Sue  A.  hnrd  who,  together  with  their  little 
daughter,  his  mother,  Mrs.  Francesco  Rech,  and  a 
sister.    Mrs.    John    Hammer,   survive. 

Mr.  Rech  was  popular  in  fraternal  circles,  being 
a  member  of  many  organizations  in  addition  to  the 
X.s.i ;.\Y.  Ee  tools  an  active  part  in  civic  and 
political  affairs,  representing  the  Seventy  seemid

able record  as  a  hardworking  and  painstaking  rep

was  a  mem  tier  of  several  of  the  most  important

The  funeral  of  J.  X.  0.  Rech  was  held  March  13th,

every    Subordinate    Parlor.      He     was     a     well 
counsellor  of  all,  and   in   Ins  passing,   the  Order   in 

Southern  California  lost  a  true  friend,  a  valuable 
member,  and  one  ever  ready  to  aid  in  the  work  of 
t  lie   fraterrj  ity. 

Otto  Rech  was,  in  every  sense  of  the  word,  a 
self  made  young  man.  Those  who  knew  him  from 
babyhood  tell  of  his  boyhood  struggles  for  a  live- 
lihood and  how  he  devoted  his  nights,  after  a  hard 
day  of  manual  labor,  to  a  development  of  his  men- 
tal faculties  in  the  study  of  law.  With  a  keen. 
active  brain,  he  made  rapid  progress  in  the  path 
way  of  his  chosen  profession  and  was  later  gra  In 
ated  from  the  law  department  of  the  University  of 
Virginia,  having  worked  his  own  way  through  the 
institution.  Returning  to  los  Angeles,  Reeh  en- 
gaged in  practice  of  the  law  and  through  devotion 
to  his  clients,  and  fair  dealing,  built  up  a  lucrative 
practice. 

Otto  Rech  was  a  friend  of  everyone  who  ever 
made  his  acquaintance.  Of  an  unusually  bright 
mind  and  happy  disposition,  he  was  the  cent 
mirth  and  good-fellowship  at  all  gatherings  in 
which  he  was  a  party.  Ever  ready  to  answer  to 
the  cry  of  distress,  his  assistance  in  the  affairs  and 
concerns  of  life  was  at  the  disposal  of  his  friends. 
While  his  lease  of  life  was  but  a  short  one,  he  had 
in  thirty-one  years  won  greater  success,  made  more 
friends,  and  done  more  for  the  benefit  of  his  fel- 
low-man than  most  men  accomplish  in  twice  that 
number   of   years. 

Otto  Rech  will  be  sorely  missed  in  the  councils 
of  the  Native  Snns  of  the  Golden  West,  where  he 
was  universally  respected  and  admired,  and  as  a 
mark  of  respect  to  his  broad  ideas,  the  charter  of 
.very  Parlor  in  Los  Angeles  has  been  draped  in 
mourning.  His  memory  will  never  fade,  for  his 
conduct  as  .-i  valuable  member  was  such  as  to  in- 
delibly impress  upon  the  hearts  and  in  the  minds 
of  all  that  he  was  once  with  us  in  the  flesh  and, 
although  now  lie  has  taken  his  place  in  the  Grand 
Parlor  on  High,  his  teachings  and  sentiments  will 
guide  the  Order  to  a  grander  destiny.  While  the 
Order  grieves  at  the  passing  of  Otto  Rech.  yet  we 
rejoice  that  he  once  lived  and  that  we  knew,  and 
loved,  and  honored  him  as  a  true  exponent  of  the 
principles    of    friendship,    loyalty    and    charity. 

To  the  relatives  of  J.  S".  0.  Rech — his  beloved 
u  i  £e  a  ml  little  daughter,  his  honored  mother  and 
his  sister — the  members  of  the  Order  of  >■ 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West  in  general,  and  the  five 
Subordinate  Parlors  in  Los  Angeles  in  particular, 
extend  their  deepest  sympathy,  for  they  realize 
that  in  his  passing  they  have  lost  a  devoted  hus- 
band, father,  son,  and  brother. — C.  M.  H.

ROUND  WAS  BROKEN  IN  SAN 
-Francisco  for  the  new  building  of 
the  Hall  Association  of  the  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West  during  the 
last  Ninth  of  September  celebration. 
the  first  shovelful  of  dirt  being 
placed  in  the  wagon  by  Grand  Pres- 
ident Daniel  A.  Ryan.  On  the  22nd 
flay  of  February,  1911,  the  corner- 
stone was  laid  with  appropriate  cer- 
emonies, and  work  on  the  building 
is  progressing  satisfactorily.  The 
erection  of  the  steel  frame  is  now  in  progress  and 
it  is  expected  that  the  frame  will  be  entirely  in 
place  within  the  next  forty  to  fifty  days,  and  the 
building   completed   within   a   year. 

The  following  is  a  report  of  the  Finance  Com- 
mittee and  Hall  Committee  made  to  the  Board  of 
Directors.  January  27,  1911,  and  sets  forth  in  a  very 
concise  manner  the  merits  of  our  building  from  an 
investment  point  of  view  as  well  as  showing  its 
architectural  features,  and  it  should  be  read  with 
interest  by  every  loyal  Native  Son: 

WORK  PROGRESSING. 
''Now  that  actual  work  of  construction  has  been 
commenced  upon  our  new  building,  the  contracts 
for  excavating,  concrete  foundations  and  structural 
steel  having  been  let,  aud  the  plans  and  specifica- 
tions ready  for  letting  additional  contracts,  it  will 
be  a  comparatively  short  time  until  our  building 
is  completed  and  ready  for  occupancy.  Arrange- 
ments have  been  perfected  for  laying  the  corner 
stone  with  becoming  eeremonies  on  the  coming 
Washington  's   Birthday. 

THE  BUILDING. 
"The  building  will  be  erected  upon  our  lot  on 
Mason  street,  which  is  centrally  located  and  con- 
venient to  car  lines  from  any  part  of  the  city.  It 
will  "be  an  eight-story  and  basement  class  'A' 
structure  of  imposing  appearance  and  arranged  as 
follows:  The  basement  will  contain  a  large  jinks 
or  banquet  hall,  with  all  the  conveniences  and  ac- 
cessories, such  as  stage,  kitchen,  hat  and  cloak 
rooms;  etc.  The  first  floor  will  be  a  large  assembly 
hall  or  ball  room,  with  comfortable  parlors  and  re- 
ception rooms.  The  second  floor — Balcony  of  as- 
sembly hall,  ladies'  parlor,  check  rooms,  and  gen- 
tlemen 's  smoking  room,  all  connecting  with  the 
assembly  hall;  also  the  office  of  the  building.  The 
third  floor — One  lodge  room  and  suitable  offices  for 
the  grand  secretary.  The  fourth  and  fifth  floors — 
Each  three  lodge  rooms  with  suitable  ante-rooms 
and  lockers.  The  sixth  and  seventh  floors — Each 
four  lodge  rooms  with  suitable  ante-rooms  and  lock- 
ers. The  eighth  floor — IS.S.G.W.  club  rooms,  con- 
sisting of  library,  billiard  room,  lounging  room, 
card   rooms,   etc. 

"No  pains  have  been  spared  in  designing  and 
furnishing  the  building,  in  order  to  make  our  as- 
sembly hall  one  of  the  most  attractive  in  the  city 
and  our  lodge  rooms  the  most  comfortable  and  con- 
venient,   so    we    feel    every    assurance    that    the    de- 


mands for  rentals  will  be  large  from  the  very  mo- 
ment that  the  building  is  completed. 
OWN   A  BRICK. 
"Every  member  of  our  order  should  own  at  least 
'a  brick  in  this  new  building,'  which  will  stand  as 
a  lasting  monument   to  the  enterprise  and  stability 


of  the  Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
in  San  Francisco. 

"We  appeal  to  your  loyalty  and  patriotism  as  a 
Native  Son  of  the  Golden  West  and  believe  that 
you  will  take  pride  in  having  our  Order  attest  its 
confidence  in  the  future  of  San  Francisco  by  doing 
its  mite  towards  the  rehabilitation  of  our  city;  and 
in  owning  its  own  home  where  all  the  San  Francisco 
Parlors  may  meet  under  one  roof  and  where  visit- 
ing brothers   may  be   fittingly  welcomed. 

A  GOOD  INVESTMENT. 
"Aside  from  the  sentimental  and  patriotic  fea- 
tures, the  stock  in  the  Hall  Association  of  the  Na- 
tive Sons  of  the  Golden  West  will  pay  good  divi- 
dends, amounting  to  at  least  five  per  cent.  It  is 
the  intention  to  sell  sufficient  stock  to  pay  for  the 


The  cut  above  shows  the  large  steel  truss  for  the 
new  Native  Sons'  Hall  now  in  course  of  erection  in 
San  Francisco.  This  truss  is  the  largest  piece  of 
fabricated  structural  steel  ever  put  together  on  the 
Pacific  Coast.  It  weighs  sixty-five  and  one-half 
tons  and  has  sufficient  strength  to  carry  a  load  of 
1200  tons.  This  great  truss  is  to  carry  the-load 
above  the  main  auditorium,  so  that  there  will  be 
no  posts  or  columns  to  interfere  with  the  spectators' 
view  of  the  stage  and  allow  a  clear  dancing  floor. 
It  was  fabricated  and  put  together  in  the  shops  of 
the  Pacific  Rolling  Mill  Co.,  Seventeenth  and  Miss- 
issippi streets,  San  Francisco,  and  shows  to  ad- 
vantage the  large  work  these  people  are  able  to 
turn  out.  They  have  been  doing  a  general  struc- 
tural steel  and  cast  iron  business  in  San  Francisco

Three  Pioneers  of  Tuolumne  County  have  crossed

bourn  from  which  no  one  returns.  They  were  Mrs. 
Katherine  Mann  of  Jamestown,  Ezra  D.  Nieolls 
and  Jesus  Comacho  of  Sonora.  Mrs.  Mann  came 
to  this  State  in  1857  and  had  lived  most  of  her  life 
in  Jamestown.  She  leaves  to  mourn  her  loss  a 
family  of  grown  sons  and  daughters,  nine  in  num- 
ber.  Ezra  D.  Nieolls  was  an  old  pocket  miner  of 
Yankee  Hill.  He  was  78  years  old  and  came  here 
in  1854.  He  had  relatives  living  in  Sonora.  Jesus 
( lomacho  was  a  Mexican  of  the  days  of  "  forty- 
nine. "  He  came  with  the  gold  seekers.  «n 
in  mining  for  many  years,  but  later  took  up  his 
trade  of  a  shoemaker,  which  he  followed  until 
within  a  few  days  of  his  death.  He  was  reputed 
to  have  reached  the  remarkable  age  of  one  hun- 
dred years,  though  some  say  he  was  not  quite  that 
old.  but  near  it.  He  was  a  good  citizen,  honesl  and 
industrious.  He  hail  no  relatives  and  divided  what 
property  he  died  possessed  of  among  the  friends  who 
had  been  true  to  him  io  his  declining  years. 


There  is  a  wide  difference  between  having  a  note 
in  the  bank  and  having  a  banknote  in  the  pocket, 
and     therein     lies     the     difference     between     com 

placency   and  discontent.

HE  NEW  YORK  REVIEW  OF 
March  18th  has  this  bit  of  interest- 
ing information:  A  number  of 
the  leading  players  now  appealing 
in  "The  Balkan  Princess"  at  the 
Casino  theater  and  ' '  The  Hen- 
Peeks''  at  the  Broadway  theater 
held  a  meeting  yesterday  afternoon 
for  the  purpose  of  forming  a  new 
San  Franciseo  Professional  Club. 
All  the  players  will  be  eligible  who 
were  either  born  in  San  Francisco 
or  played  there  such  a  length  of  time  as  to  estab- 
lish recognized  reputations.  Prominent  among  the 
.-utists  who  attended  the  meeting  were  Robert  War- 
wick. May  Boley.  Christine  Nielsen,  "W.  T.  Carle- 
ton  and  Teddy  Webb,  now  all  appearing  in  "The 
Balkan  Princess,"  and  Blossom  Seeley  and  Bert 
Leslie,  of  "The  Hen-Pecks"  company. 

Mr.  Warwick  is  a  native  of  San  Francisco,  and 
was  chosen  to  preside.  May  Boley,  who  became  a 
great  San  Francisco  favorite  during  the  three  years 
that  she  was  prima  donna  and  comedienne  at  the 
Princess  theater,  acted  as  temporary  secretary.  All 
present  signed  a  circular  letter  which  will  be  sent 
to  all  the  eligible  players  known  to  these  original 
members  of  the  new  society. 

The  new  cUib  is  to  be  essentially  a  social  organi- 
zation, but  will  also  establish  a  mutual  benefit  fund 
for  the  assistance  of  players  from  the  far  West  who 
come  to  New  York  comparatively  unknown  and 
seek  to  establish  themselves  in  the  metropolis.

ices of  Miss  Florence  Reed,  who  comes  direct  from

ing woman  of  the  Belasco  stock  company  during

"from  18  to  80  in  18  minutes";  Robert  Roland, 
reproducing  the  natural  music  of  twenty  instru- 
ments; comedy  motion  pictures  on  the  laugh-o- 
scope. 

While  this  is  an  exceptionally  strong  bill,  it  could 
not  draw  larger  crowds  to  the  Los  Angeles  than 
regularly  attend  there,  for  the  reason  that  the  place 
is  always  packed.  The  eight-number  bills,  with 
complete  weekly  changes,  that  are  the  rule  at  the 
Sullivan  &  Considine  vaudeville  emporium  have  met 
the  popular  fancy,  and  as  a  result  the  local  house  is 
unable  to  accommodate  all  who  seek  admission  at 
each  performance. 


California  Theatrical  Notes. 

Grass  Valley  is  to  have  a  new  tlieater  with  a 
seating  capacity  of  800. 

"The  Girl  From  Rector's"  was  barred  from  Riv- 
erside, as  being  immoral. 

The  opera  house  at  Maricopa  was  recently  de- 
stroyed by  fire;  loss  $5000. 

The  National  theater,  San  Francisco,  has  closed 
its  doors  for  want  of  patronage. 

Maurice  Sherman  has  succeeded  to  the  manage- 
ment of  the  Majestic  Theater  in  Chico. 

Mine.  Cecile  Behrens,  a  San  Francisco  pianist, 
won  great  success  in  her  recent  debut  in  New  York. 

The  new  Diepenbrock  theater  in  Sacramento  was 
opened  to  stock  March  ISth,  the  initial  play  being 
"The  Lion  and  the  Mouse." 

Frank  Pixley,  author  of  "The  Prince  of  Pilsen, "

California  theaters.  "La  Samartine,"  that  was  re- 
cently prohibited  in  New  Orleans,  is  on  her  reper- 
toire for  this  State. 

"The^irl  of  the  Golden  West,"  the  grand  opera 
that  won  such  marked  success  in  the  East,  will  in 
all  probability  be  brought  to  California  next  sea- 
son, under  the  management  of  Henry  W.  Savage. 

Richard  Jose,  in  "Silver  Threads,"  was  given  a 
great  reception  upon  his  return  home  to  San  Fran- 
cisco, where  his  acting  pleased  his  many  friends  as 
much  as  his  singing  had  on  numerous  other  occa- 
sions.

California  during  the  spring  and  early  summer  are 
Billie  Burke,  John  Drew,  Ethel  Barrymore  and  Otis

is  another  coming  attraction. 

A  dispatch  from  New  York,  March  4th,  an- 
nounced that  Marcus  Lowe  had  taken  active  control 
of  the  vaudeville  houses  and  bookings  of  William 
Morris,  Inc.  About  a  year  ago,  Morris  came  to  Cal- 
ifornia and  announced  that  he  was  about  to  estab- 
lish a  chain  of  theaters  for  his  attractions.  Wil- 
liam Hoff  Seeley  represented  him,  and  houses  were 
arranged  for  in  San  Francisco,  Los  Angeles,  Sacra- 
mento and  other  places.  With  his  admitted  defeat 
in  the  East,  however,  there  will  be  nothing  doing, 
as  far  as  Morris  is  concerned,  in  the  California  vau- 
deville field.

Arrangements    have    been    made    for    the    holding 

of   the   Grand    Parlor   sess a   in    the   Bpacious  and 

well-appointed  Casino  building  which,  situated  on 
the  beach,  will  allow  delegates  to  enjoy  surf  and 
beach   relaxation   during   real    intervals. 

While  the  program  oi  entertain  men  1  lias  cot  yel

interesting  features,  a  trip  to  the  Big  Trees — one 
of  California's  natural  temples—  where  an  interest 
Lna  program  will  be  followed  by  a  barbecue.  There 
will  also  1"l  a  banquet  and  grand  ball  for  the 
delegates.  Many  interesting  excursions  and  drives 
will  also  be  provided  for  the  amusement  of  the 
delegates  and  visitors,  the  idea  of  the  committee 
being  to  maintain  Santa  Cruz's  reputation  for  hos- 
pitality, which  extends  throughout  the  State. 
Grand  Office  Candidates. 
As  is  usual  at  this  time  of  year,  interest  in  the 
Order  now  centers  around  the  election  of  grand 
officers,  which  occurs  the  last  day  of  the  Grand 
Parlor  Bession.  The  present  corps  of  grand  vies 
presidents  will  no  doubt  be  advanced  one  round  in 
the  ladder  that  lends  to  the  Grand  Presidency,  and 
tin*  real  contest  will  be  for  the  office  of  Grand  Third 
Vico  ['resident.      For   That    position,   two   candidates 


Willet   Ware.  Chairman 
Santa  Cruz  Arrangements  Committee 


have  been  announced,  namely,  Bismarck  Bruck  of 
St.  Helena  and  Louis  II.  Mooser  of  San  Francisco. 
Both  have  served  several  terms  :is  Grand  Trustee 
and  done  valuable  work  for  the  Order,  and  each 
has  a  large  personal  following,  so  that  while  the 
contest  will  be  a  friendly  one  it  will  not  be  by  any 
means   slow. 

For  Grand  Trustees,  it  is  very  likely  that  Judge 
J.  E.  Barber  of  Bedding,  Judge  Hubert  M.  Clarke 
of  Ventura,  John  F.  Davis  of  Jackson,  Frank  M. 
Rutherford  of  Truckee  and  Judge  Emmet  Seawell 
of  Santa  Rosa  will  be  candidates  to  succeed  them- 
selves. There  will  be  several  other  candidates,  as 
seven  trustees  are  to  be  elected,  and  at  the  present 
time  The  Grizzly  Bear  has  been  advised  that  Ted 
C.  Atwood  of  I'lacerville  Parlor,  No.  9,  at  Flacer- 
ville;  (lay  Kellogg  of  Santiago  Parlor.  No.  71.  at 
Santa  Ana,  and  Charles  J.  Powers  of  Twin  Peaks 
Parlor,  No.  -14.  at  San  Francisco,  will  seek  posi- 
tions on  the  Board. 

Admission  Day  and  1912  Grand  Parlor. 

At  the  last  Grand  Parlor  session,  Oroville  said 
it  would  be  in  the  field  this  year  for  the  1912  Grand 
Parlor,  but  nothing  definite  has  been  heard  from 
tnere  since.  Redding,  however,  has  had  a  committee 
at  work  for  some  time,  in  the  interest  of  the 
1912    session,    and    that    little    mountain    city    will 


be     a     spirited     bidder     t'l.r     the     h i.        What      city 

wants  this  year's  Admission  I >.-iy  celebration,  is 
not  known  at  i in-  present  writing.  There  has  been 
considerable  talk  among  me  fliers  of  the  <  >rder  in 
I. os  Angeles  relative  to  holding  the  annual  eele 
bration  in  the  southern  city,  but   no  definite  action 

has    as    yet     been    taken,    although    the     I'nrloi  s    t  here 


Carl  Kratzenstein,  Secretary 
Santa  Cruz  Arrangements  Committee 


have  a  committee  in  the  field  convassing  the  situa- 
tion. It  is  also  reported  that  Vallejo  will  ask  the 
Grand  Parlor  to  designate  that  city  as  the  official 
celebration  place. 

Delegates  to  Santa  Cruz. 
The  Subordinate  Parlors  were  busy  electing  dele- 
gates to  the  Santa  <  'ruz  Grand  Parlor  during  the 
past  month,  but  up  to  the  time  of  this  issue  of 
The  Grizzly  Bear  going  to  press,  only  a  few  returns 
had  been  made  to  the  office  of  Grand  .Secretary 
Fred  H.  Jung,  as  follows:

PARLOR    ADOPTS    MEMORIAL    RESOLUTIONS. 

At  a  meeting  of  Estudillo  Parlor,  No.  223,  N.S.G. 
W.  (San  Leandro),  March  7th,  the  following  reso- 
lutions, prepared  by  a  committee  made  up  of  W.  G. 
Muntz,  H.  C.  Barton  and  W.  H.  Gorman,  were 
adopted: 

Whereas,  God  in  His  infinite  wisdom  has  seen  fit 
to  remove  from  our  midst  our  beloved  brother  and 
charter  member,  Lucian  Godchaux.  who  departed 
this  life  on  the  17th  day  of  February,  1911;  and 

Whereas,  In  the  death  of  Brother  Lucian  God- 
chaux our  Order  has  lost  a  loyal  member,  the  re- 
moval of  whose  life  from  our  midst  leaves  a  va- 
cancy and  a  shadow  that  will  be  deeply  realized 
by  the  members  and  friends  of  our  organization,  and 
prove  a  great  loss  to  the  community  in  which  he 
lived :    and 

Whereas,  That  while  we  silently  and  reverently 
bow  our  heads  in  humble  submission  to  the  will  of 
Providence  in  relieving  him  of  his  earthly  cares 
and  suffering;  and  while  we  believe  that  death  is 
but  the  passing  from  this  to  another  life,  to  which 
we  shall  an  soon  be  called  to  follow  him,  we  never- 
theless mourn  for  our  brother  who  has  been  taken 
from    us.      Therefore,    be    it

Conducted  by  CALVERT  WILSON

SERIES  OF  CONFERENCES  IS  IN 
progress  between  State  Mineralogist 
Lewis  E.  Aubury  and  the  leading 
oil  producers  of  the  California  fields, 
preliminary  to  a  move  which 
promises  to  be  of  the  greatest  im- 
portarfce  to  the  oil  industry  of  this 
State.  Summed  up  briefly,  the  pur- 
pose in  view  is  to  get  the  Navy 
Department  of  the  United  States  to 
use  fuel  oil  in  place  of  coal  in  naval 
vessels,  especially  on  the  Pacific 
Ocean.  Aubury  has  issued  a  letter  addressed  to 
the  producers  of  California  petroleum,  announcing 
that  the  efforts  of  the  California  State  Mining 
Bureau,  in  connection  with  the  co-operation  of 
the  oil  producers,  promise  to  be  successful,  and 
that  there  is  an  excellent  prospect  that  fuel  oil 
will  soon  be  used  in  all  the  naval  vessels  of  the 
United  States  on  the  Pacific  Ocean.  In  the  same 
communication,  he  advises  the  producers  of  pe- 
troleum to  continue  to  co-operate  with  the  bureau, 
as  there  are  powerful  influences  at  work  in  favor 
of  coal  produced  elsewhere,  as  against  the  substi- 
tution of  oil  for  coal  as  fuel.  Dispatches  have 
been  received  from  Washington  in  which  informa- 
tion is  contained  that  the  proper  officials  at  Mare 
Island  have  been  instructed  to  prepare  to  install 
oil  burners  on  the  Pacific  fleet  as  soon  as  possible. 
Congress  has  decreed  that  coal  mined  on  the 
Pacifie  coast  must  be  used  by  the  Pacific  fleet,  in 
preference  to  that  mined  in  Pocahontas  coal  fields. 
This  action  was  taken  on  the  basis  of  a  probable 
saving  of  $1,000,000  a  year.  A  greater  saving  than 
this  can  be  accomplished  by  the  use  of  California 
fuel  oil.  This  is  figured  out  carefully  by  oil  men, 
who  find  that  the  heat  producing  capacity  of  three 
and  one-half  barrels  of  California  fuel  oil  is  equiva- 
lent to  that  contained  in  one  ton  of  the  best  steam 
coal.  The  ease  with  which  oil  can  be  handled,  the 
certainty  of  an  unlimited  supply  of  California  pe- 
troleum, and  the  success  which  has  attended  its 
use  in  steamship  and  locomotive  furnaces,  are  argu- 
ments that  will  appeal  to  the  Navy  Department. 
It  is  urged  by  the  oil  producers  that  there  should 
be  oil  stations  for  the  uses  of  the  Navy  at  all 
harbors  of  importance  on  the  Pacifie  coast,  to  in- 
clude San  Diego,  San  Pedro,  San  Franciseo, 
Monterey,  Eureka,  Seattle  and  other  northern  ports. 
An  interesting  discussion  recently  took  place  in 
Congress,  relative  to  the  fuel  for  the  Pacific  Coast 
fleet  of  the  United  States,  particular  attention  being 
called  to  the  petroleum  of  California  as  fuel,  and  in 
which  it  was  said  that  the  entire  Pacific  fleet  could 
be  equipped  to  burn  oil  at  a  reasonable  cost;  that 
California  oil  is  the  best  fuel  in  the  world  for 
ships,  and  that  it  is  being  shipped  to  the  Atlantic 
coast. 

Some  figures  were  quoted  concerning  the  annual 
output  of  California  petroleum,  in  which  it  was 
brought  out  that  the  oil  production  of  1909  ex- 
ceeded 48,000,000  barrels.  Roughly  estimated,  the 
product  of  1910  was  something  like  75,000,000 
barrels.  Petroleum,  as  already  reported,  has  for 
some  years  been  the  leading  mineral  product  of 
California,  being  in  advance  of  the  value  of  gold 
annually  produced  in  this  State  by  many  millions 
of  dollars.  Its  production  in  quantity  has  advanced 
very  rapidly  and  there  seerninglj1"  is  enough  oil  in 
the  oil  sands  to  supply  all  demands  for  at  least 
half  a  century. 


Recent  Mining  Decisions. 

Validity  of  Placer  Claims. — A  quartz  claim  on 
a  patented  placer  depends,  for  its  ultimate  validity 
and  value,  upon  the  ability  of  the  locators  to  prove 
that  when  the  application  for  patent  was  made, 
the  placer  claim  contained  a  known  vein  upon 
which  the  discover  of  the  quartz  was  based. — Kift 
v.  Mason,  Supreme  Court  of  Montana,  112  Pacifie 
392. 

Lands  Open  to  Location. — Under  Act  Congress, 
June  17,  1902,  c.  10S3,  Section  3,  32  Stat.  388  (U.  S. 
Comp.  St.  Supp.  1909,- p.  597),  directing  the  Secre- 
tary of  the  Interior  (1)  to  withdraw  from  entry  the 
lands  for  any  irrigation  works  contemplated  by  the 
act.  and  (2)  authorizing  him  to  withdraw  any  lands 
believed  to  be  susceptible  of  irrigation  from  such 
works,  withdrawals  under  tne  first  clause  are  not 
subject  to.  location  for  mining  purposes,  being  re- 
served for  government  use.  while  lands  withdrawn 
under  the  second  clause  are  disposed  of  only  for 
homesteads,  and  as  all  lands  open  to  homestead 
entry  are   subject   to   mining  location,   lands   with- 


drawn under  the  second  clause  are  so  subject. — 
Lonev  v.  Scott,  Supreme  Court  of  Oregon,  112 
Pacific  172. 

Assessment  Work. — Under  the  provisions  of  Sec- 
tion 2324,  Rev:  St.  U.  S.  (U.  S.  Comp.  St.  1901, 
p.  1426)  where  a  co-worker  of  a  mining  claim  fails 
to  do  his  assessment  work  or  fails  to  contribute  his 
proportion  of  the  expenditure  required  in  doing 
such  work,  his  co-owners  who  have  performed  the 
labor  may  give  such  delinquent  personal  notice  in 
writing  or  by  publication,  as  provided  in  said 
statute,  and  if  at  the  expiration  of  ninety  days 
such  delinquent  should  fail  or  refuse  to  contribute 
his  proportion  of  such  expenditure,  his  interest  in 
the  claim  shall  become  the  property  of  his  co- 
workers who  made  such  expenditures,  and  the  de- 
faulting co-owner  is  not  personally  responsible  for 
any  part  of  the  assessment  work,  under  the  provi- 
sions of  said  section. — McDaniel  v.  Moore,  Supreme 
Court  of  Idaho,  112  Pacifie  317. 

Recovery  of  Profits. — Where,  in  an  action  by  a 
lessee  of  a  part  of  a  mine  for  loss  of  profits  by 
wrongful  eviction,  the  evidence  conclusively  showed. 
that  the  vein  of  the  mine  was  pockety  and  irregu- 
lar, and  not  uniform  in  value,  the  quantity  of  the 
ore  left  in  the  vein  at  the  time  of  the  eviction 
could  not  be  determined  by  a  mathematical  com- 
putation, based  on  conditions  in  the  vein  as  the 
lessee  saw  them  at  the  time  of  the  eviction,  and 
on  the  assumption  that  the  vein  would  continue 
unbroken,  regular,  and  of  uniform  richness  from 
800  to  1,000  feet  to  the  surface,  to  its  supposed  out- 
crop within  the  side  lines  of  the  claim,  and   such

Court  of  Colorado,  112  Pacifie  223. 

The  Mining  Promoter. 

What  would  the  mining  industry  do  without  the 
mining  promoter?  He  of  the  glad  hand,  the  genial 
smile;  the  gall  of  a  mine  rat  and  the  tenacity  of 
a  bull  dog;  a  fine  judge  of  character  and  utterly 
oblivious  to  the  cold  mit  or  the  back  talk  of  the 
pessimist.  What  would  we  do  without  him  f 
Viewed  from  the  usual  standpoint  we  revile  him. 
He  is  classed  with  the  professional  deadbeat  who 
lives  by  his  wits.  His  friends,  even,  wink  and  nod 
to  each  other  when  he  passes  by.  He  is  a  great 
fisherman,  but  it  is  the  general  impression  that  he 
is  always  out  after  suckers;  but, 

When  we  have  a  mining  proposition  needing  capi- 
tal for  its  development,  we  make  a  il hot-foot"  for 
the  promoter.     We  think  we  have  a  proposition  of 


merit  that  requires  but  little  money  to  transform  it 
into  a  regular  dividend  payer;  and  this  must,  as  a 
usual  thing,  seek  the  assistance  of  the  promoter. 
Being  in  need  of  finances  we  find  that  the  merits 
of  our  enterprise  must  be  presented  to  the  capi- 
talistic class;  and  we  discover  that,  with  all  of  our 
large  array  of  boasted  ability  we  do  not  know  how 
to  get  into  touch  with  the  right  people  and  be  able 
to  separate  them  from  their  money;  although  our 
intentions  are  good  and  honorable.  In  the  emer- 
gency we  call  in  the  promoter.  We  forget  all 
of  his  many  failings;  of  the  slander  which  has 
been  circulated  concerning  him.  In  our  eyes  he 
is  now  a  perfect  god,  and  we  hug  him  to  our 
bosom,  as  it  were.  Then  we  send  him  out  to  the 
man  and  the  masses  in  their  own  fortresses.  We  ex- 
pect him  to  scale  the  walls  where  we  couldn't  even 
get  a  look-in.  He  must  dress  like  a  millionaire  and 
spend  money  like  a  millionaire  if  he  expects  to 
interest  the  millionaire  in  our  enterprise.  He  must 
talk  corn  and  hogs  to  the  farmer  and  have  hay- 
seed in  his  hair  if  he  expects  to  get  after-harvest 
money  for  our  mining  venture.  He  must  be  thor- 
oughly familiar  with  the  scriptures  and  be  able  to 
make  a  flowery  talk  from  the  pulpit  if  he  succeeds 
in  interesting  the  goodly-good  and  ultra-religious, 
and  he  must  be  able  to  play  a  good  hand  at  poker 
and  be  able  to  pick  the  winner  in  a  dog  fight  if 
he  is  able  to  interest  the  sporting  element  in  our 
mining   enterprise. 

And,  he  is  always  equal  to  the  occasion.  He  may 
be  thrown  down,  hard,  a  dozen  times,  but  he  always 
comes  up  smiling  and  ready  for  another  attack.  He 
is  always  resourceful,  and  has  the  smile  with  him 
which  "will  not  come  off.1'  In  the  end  he  returns 
with  the  money,  and  his  acquaintances  want  to 
know  how  many  widows  he  has  robbed;  how  many 
orphans  have  been  the  victim  of  his  wiles.  But,  the 
money,  as  a  general  thing,  goes  into  mine  develop- 
ment; into  mine  equipment;  and.  if  the  venture  is 
a  successful  one.  the  investors,  the  guys  who  have 
been  wheedled  into  the  purchase  of  stock  by  the 
promoter,  get  their  investment  back  with  big 
interest.  Quite  often  they  make  a  fortune  on  a 
small  investment.  It  often  happens  that  the  enter- 
prise is  a  losing  one,  for  nothing  is  certain  but 
death  and  taxes.  And  even  then,  the  money  brought 
into  a  district  through  the  efforts  of  the  promoter 
has  had  a  beneficial  effect  in  that  certain  condi- 
tions have  been  demonstrated. 

!Ninety-nine  out  of  a  hundred  raining  ventures 
have  required  the  aid  of  outside  capital,  and  ninety- 
nine  out  of  a  hundred  of  the  big  paying  mines  of 
today,  at  one  period  in  their  existence,  needed 
money,  and  therefore  the  services  of  a  promoter, 
whether  in  the  shape  of  a  personal  solicitor  or  in 
tne  form  of  a  financial  agency.  But,  whether  in  the 
person  of  the  affable,  smiling,  convincing  promoter, 
or  in  the  form  of  an  incorporated  financing  com- 
pany, the  services  of  either  is  always  in  demand, 
and,  without  this  factor  in  mining  operations,  min- 
ing, in  all  of  its  branches,  would  soon  come  to  a 
standstill. 

We  are  talking  of  honest  promoters.  We  know 
no  others;  and,  although  he  is  often  reviled,  back- 
bitten and  unjustly  accused,  the  mining  public 
should  take  off  their  hats  to  him. — Salt  Lake  Min- 
ing  Review.

Britton  Greenwood. 

Britton  Greenwood  was  a  native  of  the  State  of 
Missouri.  He  crossed  the  plains  in  the  earl}  days 
and  was  in  California  some  time  before  Li  became 
a  State.  Al  the  time  word  reached  Sutter's  Fort 
that  men,  women  and  children  were  dying  of  ex- 
posure  and   starvation    at    1 l er's    Lake,   Britton 

■  wood  hesitated  not,  but  was  among  the  first 
to  volunteer  to  go  to  the  relief  of  the  sufferers. 
He  was  appointed  guide  of  the  company,  known  as 
the  second  relief  party.  IIh  knew  full  well  what 
such  an  undertaking  meant,  but  casting  all  fear 
for  self  aside,  I"1  bravely  started  on.  During  this 
trip  his  toes  were  frozen,  and  he  never  reco^  ered 
from   the  injury. 

M  r.  t ! reen wood  went  to  the  Mendocino  coast 
about  fifty  years  ago,  and  located  al  the  place 
which  no^  bears  ins  name— the  town  of  Greenwood. 
Here  he  owned  considerable  property  al  one  time. 
Later  be  moved  to  Noyo,  a  mile  from  Port  Bragg 
where  he  died  about  twenty-two  years  ago.  BCe 
was  ''i  years  of  age  at  the  time  of  his  death. 

Mrs.  Mary  Greenwood,  his  wife,  died  in  Fort 
Bragg  some  years  ago,  at  the  age  of  75.  She  was 
bom  in  San  Francisco.  Twelve  children  were  born 
to  tli is  couple,  three  of  whom  are  living — Mrs.  J.

AMATEUR     I 


The  1911  State  Fair. 
The  State  Fair  which  is  annually  held  at  Sacra- 
mento will  be  opened  this  year  August  2Sth  and  close 
September  2nd.  The  State  Agricultural  Society, 
which  directs  the  exposition,  has  reorganized  by 
electing  the  following  officers:  Leon  Scott  of  San 
Francisco,  president;  Ben  Rush  of  Suisun,  vice- 
president;  Fred  Kiesel  of  Sacramento,  treasurer;  J. 
A.  Filcher  of  Auburn,  secretary.  Committees  have 
been  named  to  interest  manufacturers  in  making 
displays,  to  revise  premium  lists,  and  to  arrange  for 
racing  events.  It  is  hoped  to  make  this  year's 
State  exposition  the  best,  from  every  point  of  view, 
yet  held.  

Off  for  the  Pennant! 

The  Coast  League  baseball  season  opened  March 
2Sth,  and  the  fan  is  again  happy.  Conditions  were 
never  so  bright-for  a  successful  baseball  season  in 
California,  and  the  financial  backers  of  the  clubs 
are  consequently  wearing  a  broad  spring  smile. 
Many  new  faces  will  be  seen  in  the  various  line-ups, 
and  all  the  clubs  are  declared  to  be  stronger  and 
in  better  playing  condition  than  ever  before. 

"Who  will  win  the  1911  pennant  is,  of  course,  un- 
answerable at  present,  although  many  fans  think 
they  can  solve  the  problem  right  now,  without  wait- 
ing until  the  end  of  the  season.  The  manager  of 
each  club  says  his  team  has  by  far  the  best  of  the 
proposition,  and  has  no  doubt  as  to  where  the  pen- 
nant will  fall  at  the  close  of  the  season. 

All  that  can  be  positively  said,  however,  this 
early  in  the  game,  is  that  each  club  has  an  equal 
chance  for  victory,  and  that  the  baseball  enthusi- 
asts should  witness  some  exceptionally  good  play- 
ing of  the  national  pastime  this  season.

THROUGH    NEGLECT,    RECENT    STORMS    DESTROY    SANTA    YNEZ    MISSION 


With  the  destruction,  during  the  recent  storms,  of  Santa  Ynez  Mission,  the  third  of  the  twenty- 
one  mission  establishments  built  along  El  Camino  Real  by  the  Franciscan  fathers,  and  extending 
from  San  Diego  to  Sonoma,  has  been  allowed  to  become  a  ruin.  Santa  Ynez  was  the  seventh  link 
in   the   chain   of  missions,   and  was   founded   September   17,   1804. 

At  the  session  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W.  held  at  ijake  Tahoe  last  June,  a  goodly  sum 
was  appropriated  to  assist  in  the  restoration  of  Santa  Ynez  Mission,  as  it  was  pointed  out  then  that 
portions  of  the  old  adobe  were  in  such  a  state  of  decay  that,  unless  something  was  done  immedi- 
ately the  historic  old  landmark  would  not  withstand  the  floods  of  another  winter.  The  sum 
appropriated  by  the  Grand  Parlor  was  placed  in  the  hands  of  the  Landmarks  Committee,  but  for 
some  reason  nothing  was  done,  and  as  a  result,  it  is  now  believed  the  mission  is  beyond  restoration.

Change  in  School  A,PPortloninent  Law. 
A  bill  passed  the  Legislature  abolishing  the  school 
census  and  basing  apportionments  upon  average 
daily  attendance  instead  of  census  children,  and 
will  become  effective  March  31st.  Therefore,  no 
school  census  will  be  taken  this  year,  no  census 
marshals  will  need  to  lie  appointed,  and  no  census 
blanks  will  need  to  be  distributed.  It  is  worth  not- 
ing that  this  new  law  will  make  the  average  daily 
attendance  a  matter  of  supreme  importance  to  every 
school,  since  the  next  year's  funds  are  based  en- 
tirely upon  it.  Heretofore  the  census  has  cost  the 
State  about  $60, annually.

USUAL  SPRING  SENSATION 

(BY  ELIZA  D.  KEITH,  P.  G.  P.,  N.  D.  G.  W.) 


N  JUSTICE  TO  THE  PAST  GRAND 
Presidents  of  the  Native  Daughters 
of  the  Golden  West,  it  is  time  that 
a  silly  rumor  should  be  silenced. 
This  rumor  is  perennial  in  its  exist- 
ence, and  circulates  with  particular 
emphasis  about  this  time  in  the 
spring,  year  after  year.  As  in  the 
world  at  large,  it  has  been  claimed 
that  there  is  "a  silly  season"  in 
which  all  sorts  of  wild  ideas  are  set 
loose  upon  an  unprotected  and  all 
too  credulous  public;  so,  in  our  Order,  one  of  the 
flowers  that  bloom  in  the  spring  is  the  absurd  ru- 
mor that  the  Grand  President — whoever  the  in- 
cumbent of  our  highest  office  may  be  at  the  time — 
is   planning  to   succeed   herself. 

How  such  a  rumor  originated,  it  were  hard  to 
tell;  how  it  lives  to  circulate,  is  yet  more  incom- 
prehensible. Perhaps  it  is  like  man's  criminal  ter- 
ror, fear  of  the  dark;  or  it  may  be  owing  to  the 
innate  fondness  for  searing  ourselves  and  other 
people  with  bugaboos  of  our  own  creation.  Per- 
haps it  is  from  a  desire  of  having  a  little  fun  at 
the  expense  of  the  expectant  Grand  Vice-Presi- 
dent. Perhaps  it  is  meant  as  a  very  delicate  piece 
of  flattery  to  the  Grand  President,  herself.  But 
certain  it  is,  that  never  a  Grand  Parlor  year  draws 
to  its  close  without  the  talk  of  a  second  term. 

Sometimes  it  is  only  a  wish  expressed  by  a 
Grand  President's  admirers,  more  or  less  sincere. 
Sometimes,  like  Caesar,  the  incumbent  puts  aside 
the  proffered  honor  three  times  or  more — when  it 
has  been  offered  to  her  by  those  who  did  not  have 
it  to  give.  Or  it  may  have  been  part  of  a  plan  to 
give  a  Grand  President  a  second  year  because  her 
first  had  been  a  hard  one.  But  there  never  has 
been  a  time  when  the  Order  at  large  would  have 
tolerated  the  idea  Oj.  re-electing  a  Grand  Presi- 
dent and  of  setting  aside  the  Grand  Vice-President. 
To  be  sure,  there  is  no  law  against  the  re-election 
of  a  Grand  President,  neither  is  there  -any  law  to 
prevent  one  who  has  held  the  highest  office  in  our 
Order  from  becoming  a  candidate  for  any  position 
from  that  of  Grand  Outside  Sentinel  up  to  the 
Grand  President.  But  the  unwritten  law  of  our 
Order  is  that,  once  having  been  a  Grand  President — 
and  by  vitrue  of  having  held  that  office  a  perma- 
nent member  of  the  Grand  Parlor — a  Native  Daugh- 
ter must  not  aspire  either  to  a  second  term  as 
head  of  the  Order,  or  be 'a  candidate  for  any  other 
office  in  the  gift  of  electors  of  our  Grand  Parlor. 
It  is  true  that  a  Past  Grand  President  is  often 
called  upon  to  fill  various  appointive  offices  of  trust 
and  responsibility.  A  Past  Grand  President  may 
be  a  D.  D.  G.  P.-at-large,  an  organizer,  or  the  effi- 
cient member  of  a  committee,  but  as  for  running 
against  any  other  Native  Daughter — and  possibly 
winning  from  her  a  coveted  honor — or  taking  from 
her  a  salaried  position;  of  using  the  prestige  of  the 
Past  Grand  President's  position  or  of  her  popularity 
as  a  member  of  the  Order;  or  the  fortuitous  cir- 
cumstance of  geographical  or  Grand  Parlor  promi- 
nence— that  has  never  yet  been  done,  nor  in  my 
belief,  speaking  myself  as  a  Past  Grand  Presi- 
dent, will   it   ever   be.

In  justice  to  the  women  who  have  each  and  all 
served  the  Order  to  the  best  of  their  individual 
ability,  such  a  possibility  should  never  be  supposed 
to  exist;  and  the  rumor  that  this  Past  Grand  or 
that  one  intends  to  run.  again  for  Grand  President 
or  for  the  salaried  office  of  Grand  Secretary,  should 
be  quickly  and  effectively  silenced  for  all  time. 
It  is  an  injustice  to  all  of  us  who  have  sat  in 
the    Grand   President's   chair. 

And  why  should  a  Past  Grand  President  be  for- 
ever  ineligible   to    further   honors? 

First,  for  the  reason  of  fair  play.  Having  once 
had  the  highest  honor,  she  should  be  willing  that 
others  should  have  a  fair  chance  and  an  unob- 
structed field. 

.Second,  because  the  Order  has  once  lavished  upon 
her  the  honor,  the  gifts  and  the  personal  defer- 
ence— all  it  had  to  bestow — and  it  seems  selfish  to 
wish  to  take  it  all  over  again  and  to  rob  the 
Parlors  of  the  pleasure  of  welcoming  and  honor- 
ing some  brilliant,  brainy,  loyal  Native  Daughter 
as  Grand  President. 

Why  should  a  Past  Grand  President  not  seek 
re-election  to  some  of  the  minor  offices  of  the  Grand 
Parlor? 

Because  in  every  Grand  Parlor  there  are  many 
members  competent  to  fill  these  offices  with  effi- 
ciency, and  the  honors  should  be  distributed  among 
the  various  Parlors  of  our  Order.  For  by  such  re- 
election, a  Past  Grand  would  take  from  her  Parlor 
the  possible  honor  of  having  more  than  herself  as 
a  past  grand  officer  and  she  herself  would  lose  the 
dignity  attached  to  many  a  Past  Grand  President. 

It  is  a  wrong  to  the  entire  ' '  College  of  Past 
Grands ' '  to  have  it  stated  that  any  one  of  our 
number  is  contemplating  a  candidacy  for  either  of 
our  salaried  offices.  I  will  never  believe  it  of  any 
one  of  them.  The  idea  is  repugnant  to  the  sense 
of  justice — of  fraternity  that  should  animate  every 
loyal  Native  Daughter. 

A  Past  Grand  President  to  be  used  as  a  political 
stalking  horse  to  defeat  any  officer  tried  and  true; 
a  Past  Grafid  President  to  be  so  animated  by  feel- 
ings of  cupidity  or  ambition  that  .she  would  lend 
ber  name  to  such  a  scheme- — it  is  not  believable, 
it  is  not  possible.  And  as  a  Past  Grand  President 
who  believes  that  the  services  of  all  Past  Grand 
Presidents  forever  belong  to  the  Order  that  has  so 
signally  honored  us  in  the  past — as  such,  I  refuse 
to  believe  the  rumors  that  have  started  up  year 
after  year,  that  this  or  that  Past  Grand  was  to  run 
for  a  salaried  office. 

It  is  not  just  to  us;  it  is  not  fair  to  the  Order; 
it  would  not  be  creditable  if  it  were  true,  and  as 
it  never  has  happened  in  the  past,  let  us  take  the 
past  as  a  surety  for  the  future.  The  "College  of 
Past  Grands"  must  ever  retain  the  respect  of  the 
entire  Order  and  of  the  world  at  large. 

Give  "Whist  Party. 
San  Luis  Obispo — On  February  20th,  San  Luisita 
Parlor,  No.  108,  gave  a  whist  party  in  honor  of  the 
men  of  their  families  and  the  Native  Sons  and  their 
ladies.  Miss  Charlotte  Miller  received  the  first  la- 
dies' prize  and  Miss  Gertrude  O'Connor  the  ladies' 
consolation  prize;  Chas  Taylor,  men's  first  prize  and 
Albert  Anderson  the  consolation.  A  hot  chicken 
supper  was  served  at  the  conclusion  of    the    play. 


Resolved,  That  the  Order  of  Native  Daugh- 
ters of  the  Golden  West,  expresses  a  prefer- 
ence for  all  California  products,  and  that  we 
individually  and  collectively  adopt  as  our 
motto  the  legend,  "Made  in  California." — 
Adopted  at  Santa  Barbara  session  N.D.G.W. 
Grand  Parlor,  June,  1910. 


Much  credit  is  due  to  the  committee  for  the  man- 
ner in  which  all  the  plans  were  carried  out  and  for 
the  pleasant   evening   enjoyed  by   all   present.

Visits  Grand  Parlor  City.

the  golden  color  of  California.  Santa  Cruz  Parlor. 
No.  26,  was  officially  visited  by  Grand  President 
Mamie  G.  Peyton,  February  20th.  During  the  even- 
ing, past  president  Mrs.  John  Severio  was  presented

daffodils,  brass  candlesticks  and  yellow  candles.  In

patronizing  of  articles  manufactured  in  Cali- 
fornia, and  the  consumption  of  California's 
products  and  manufactures,  thus  giving  em- 
ployment to  a  large  number  of  people,  devel- 
oping resources  and  the  prosperity  of  Cali- 
fornia, it  being  one  of  the  principal  aims  and 
oojects  of  the  Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West  to  give  aid  and  assistance 
to  any  subject  which  makes  for  the  better- 
ment and  upbuilding  of  our  native  State. —

Grand  Officers  Pay  Visit. 
Santa  Cruz — Grand  President  Daniel  A.  Ryan  and 
Grand  Secretary  Fred  H.  Jung,  both  of  San  Fran- 
cisco, were  guests  of  Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  90, 
February  25th,  and  witnessed  the  initiation  of  sev- 
eral candidates.  Following  the  Parlor  session,  a  ban- 
quet was  spread,  at  which  WTillet  Ware  presided  as 
toastmaster,  and  the  grand  officers  responded  to 
toasts  in  which  they  reviewed  the  Order's  work. 
During  the  evening,  the  Grand  President  was  pre- 
sented with  a  basket  of  beautiful  carnations  by 
Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  26,  N.D.G.W. 


In  a  recent  debate  on  the  question,  "Resolved, 
that  the  trip  around  the  Horn  was  more  hazardous 
than  the  one  across  the  plains,"  the  judges  de- 
cided in  the  affirmative.  On  March  21st  the  sub- 
ject to  be  debated  will  be,  "Resolved,  that  mining 
has  done  more  for  California's  commercial  inter- 
ests than  agriculture  and  horticulture."  These 
debates  have  aroused  a  great  deal  of  interest  in 
Hydraulic  Parlor,  and  have  been  the  means  of  en- 
lightening the  members  in  a  great  deal  of  Cali- 
fornia's early  history  heretofore  not  familiar  to 
the   membership. 


Initiation  and  Banquet. 
Stockton — At   its  meeting  February   27th,   Stock- 


ton Parlor,  No.  7,  initiated  a  class  of  ten  candidates,

gree team  under  the  leadership  of  Walter  Adams. 
Following  these  ceremonies,  a  banquet  was  spread, 
at  which  W.  E.  O'Connor  presided,  and  responses 
were  made  to  various  topics  by  Ed  Van  Vranken. 
Floyd  Kenyon,  Otto  Dietrich,  Fred  Potter,  F.  B. 
Kelly  and  James  Fitzgerald.  During  the  evening, 
Louis  Giovanessi  and  Cyril  Kenyon  rendered  sev- 
eral  vocal  solos. 

-n  March  13th  the  Parlor  celebrated  its  thirtieth 
birthday  anniversary,  P.  G.  P.  Hugh  R.  McNoble 
being  the  orator  of  the  occasion.  Stockton  Parlor 
is  one  of  the  strongest  links,  both  numerically  and 
financially,  in  the  chain  of  Native  Son  Parlors. 
Raymond  Dorcey  is  now  the  presiding  officer  of 
the  Parlor,  and  the  Charter  members  are:  Samuel 
L.  Terry,  George  C.  Israel,  Ralph  P.  Lane,  H.  O.

W.  A.  Price,  F.  W.  Lippman;  inside  sentinel,  G. 
Grimmenstein;  outside  sentinel,  Peter  Christensen; 
organist,  Otto  Offerman.  At  the  conclusion  of  the 
installation  ceremonies,  twelve  candidates  were 
initiated  by  the  newly-installed  officers,  the  work 
being  done  in  a  very  creditable  manner.  The  Parlor 
concluding  its  business,  the  members  partook  of 
the  hospitality  of  the  California  Club,  a  social 
aunex  of  the  Parlor.  Past  President  G.  D.  Walsh, 
acting  as  toastmaster,  made  a  short  address  on  the 
progress  of  the  Parlor  for  the  past  term,  giving 
credit  to  the  efficient  work  of  the  officers  of  the 
Parlor,  and  stating  that  the  membership  had 
reached  the  one  hundredth  mark — the  first  time 
since  the  cessation  of  Menlo  Parlor.  That  Parlor 
being  represented  by  former  Grand  Marshal  James 
Fitzgerald,  he  was  called  upon  and  made  a  very 
interesting  talk  along  the  lines  of  Native  Sonism 
which  was  very  much  appreciated  by  both  old  and

Improving   Old   Landmark. 

Petaluma — Grand  Trustee  Emmetl  Seawell  paid 
an  official  visit  to  Petaluma  Parlor,  No.  27,  March 
15th,  and  was  greeted  with  a  large  attendance  of 
members.  \  banquet  was  served  at  the  conclusion 
of   tin1    Parlor    meeting. 

A  committee  from  the  Parlor  is  making  arrange-

Placerville — At  the  conclusion  of  the  meeting  of 
Plaeerville  Parlor,  No.  9,  February  28th,  the  hall 
was  turned  over  to  the  Curly  Hear  degree  team, 
and  a  class  of  seven  candidates  tended  to  satisfy 
the  hunger  of  the  Curly.  He  has  become  very  in- 
sistent for  food,  however— rbecause  even  a  Curly 
Hear  "must  eat,"  you  know — and  arrangements 
are  under  way  for  the  corraling  of  a  large  number 
of  tenderfeet  who  will  beard  the  Curly  in  his 
den   simie   time   in    April.

team  from  Los  Angeles  exemplifying  the  ritual. 
1  nterest  has  been  revived  in  the  Parlor,  a  nd  t  here

I  From    the    L.oast    Times,   Crescent    City.) 
In    fair    Del    Norte,   there   nature   has   in    store 
Her   gifts,    near    w  here    the    ocean    billows    roar; 
There    grand    and    scenic    beauty    seems    to    be, 
i  hat    looks   on    golden   sunset    in    the   sea ; 
And    forests    where    the    mammoth    redwood    ^n»ws. 
In     dells    and    on     the    hills,    the    hunter    knows. 
And   herds  of  cows  that   look   both   plump  and   well, 
And    cause    the    share    in    dairy    pails    to    swell; 
'I  hat    yields    the    butter    clean    and    yellow    made, 
That 's   snipped    to    distant    states   as    higher    grade. 
Her    mountains,    rugged,    timber    clad    and    old. 
Are    rich     in    copper,    platinum    and     gold. 
.Smith    River    gently    flows    to    join    the    tides, 
Throng. i   landscapes  broad   that   border  on    her  sides, 
Am.    stretch    away    with    mantles    of    grassy    green, 
Where    cozy    uOmeS    and    farms    are    to    be    seen 
Around    t  lie    town,    with    Corners    for    its    name, 
That    bears    a    pleasing    and    enduring    fame. 
And     pretty     crescent     City     on     the    beach. 
That    trav  'lers    by    the    stage    and    strainer    reach, 
\\  nere    girls   are    handsome,    bright    and    gay, 
And    boys  are   brave   and    merry   all    the   day. 
There  truly   is  a   sight    sublime  to  view — 
The  land  and  foaming  waves  seem  ever  new; 
The    early    sunrise    glows    i  n    splendor    o  'er 
The    waters,    on    the    wide    and    sandy    shore; 
Ano  in  the  summer  morning,  clear  and  gray. 
The  twin  rocks  loom  beyond  the  briny  spray.

MOOH 


Feminine    World's    Fads    and    Fancies 


PBIL  AND  EASTER— A  COUPLET 
that  is  synonymous  for  bright,  sun- 
shiny days  and  beautiful  gowns  and 
hats.  The  rain-god  may  visit  us, 
though  we  should  all  like  him  much 
better  if  he  would  postpone  his 
visit  until  autumn,  as  the  old  adage. 
( '  too  much  is  worse  than  not 
enough''  holds  good  in  his  case  this 
spring.  Easter  lilies  will  bloom  for 
us,  although  small  flowers  take  the 
lead  in  miladi  's  make-up,  especially 
on  her  hats.  In  this  day  and  age  of  fast  living, 
the  real  significance  of  the  Eastertide  is  nearly 
lost  in  the  less-important  details  of  what  one  must 
wear  on  that  day  of  days.  The  display  in  the 
fashion  shops  is  all  that  an  ordinary  person  should 
wish  for,  and  then,  too,  as  individuality  is  now 
featured  instead  of  some  set  mode,  we  should  be 
able  to  equip  -ourselves  with  everything  modish  and 
chic  that  will  suit  our  own  particular  style,  so  just 
a  glimpse  at  some  of  the  newest  models  in 

Short  Jacket  Suits. 

Fine  mixed  goods,  as  well  as  the  manish  weaves, 
are  swell  for  early  spring.  The  jackets  are  get- 
ting shorter,  some  only  twenty  inches  long  now, 
while  twenty-four  inches  seems  to  be  the  limit  in 
the  extreme  ideas.  Etons  are  not  very  far  away 
now,  and  a  rumor  comes  from  across  the  sea  that 
ere  the  summer  wanes  they  will  be  seen  on  the 
ultra-fashionables.  In  colors,  we  have  a  new  shade 
called  the  blue-green,  a  peculiar  though  very  fetch- 
ing color.  Tans  and  chocolate  are  as  popular  as 
ever  in  the  lighter  weaves,  and  navy  continues  to 
hold  its  own.  So  many  colors  seem  to  be  blended 
to  invent  some  new  shade,  that  it  would  tax  the 
memory  of  most  of  us  to  keep  tab  on  them  all. 
Large  buttons  for  closing  the  short  coats  are  being 
used — on  some,  only  one  large  one,  with  smaller 
ones  on  cuffs  and  across  the  fronts  of  the  long  roll 
of  the  eollar.  The  back  of  the  collar  is  often  faced 
with  white  or  some  contrasting  color  in  silk  or 
velvet,  with  the  deep  turn-back  cuffs  to  match. 

White  and  cream  serges,  basket  weaves  and  hop- 
sackings  are  extremely  swell  when  combined  with 
black  silk,  navy  or  cerise  for  the  eollar,  cuffs  and 
buttons.  For  separate  long  coats  in  pongee  and 
serge,  which  are  again  featured  for  early  spring 
and  summer  to  wear  with  white  or  dainty  gowns, 
we  find  the  long  rolled  collar  and  turn-back  cuffs 
are  of  foulard  in  either  dots  or  the  new  striped 
effect.  From  two  to  four  gilt  buttons  of  large 
si  ze  are  worn  to  close,  with  small  ones  on  cuffs 
and  collar.  We  have  been  amazed  and  delighted 
with  "former  creations  in  many  lines,  but  this  sea- 
son 's    showing    of    charming 

Afternoon  and  Evening  Gowns 
is  quite  too  dear,  and  will  certainly  be  given  more 
than  a  passing  glance  by  those  fortunate  enough 
to  gain  an  entree  into  some  of  the  French  rooms  of 
our  fashion  emporiums.  Some  of  the  gowns  I  saw 
could  not  fail  to  please  the  most  exacting  and  fas- 
tidious  of   maids   and   matrons. 

Marquisette  seems  to  take  the  lead  in  the  sheer 
fabrics,  as  it  drapes  so  delightfully,  and  in  either 
round  length  or  en-train  wTe  could  not  wish  for  a 
daintier  or  prettier  effect.  It  doesn't  matter 
whether  we  must  have  loads  of  lace  inserted — with 
perhaps  hand  embroidery,  painting  or  stamping  in 
a    floral    design    in    the    natural    colors — or    if    just

simply  made  up  with  a  little  val  or  eluny  lace,  it 
is  equally  charming  and  dainty.  A  few  models  of 
the  plain  white  and  dainty  pastel  shades  were  hung 
up  for  my  inspection,  while  the  latest  to  be  evolved 
is  the  novelty  or  striped  marquisette,  that  is  really

sheer  materials  to  advantage.  High  waist  lines  pre- 
vail, and  on  some  gowns  it  is  seemingly  just  out- 
lined by  a  narrow  piping  of  the  silk  which  is  used 
as  trimming,  though  really  joining  skirt  and  waist. 
On  other  gowns  a  broad  messaline  folded  girdle. is 
a  distinctive  feature. 

One  gown  of  white  marquisette  had  three  bias 
folds  of  the  goods  to  finish  the  lower  part  of  the 
skirt,  joined  together  by  one-inch  bands  of  eluny 
inserting.  It  was  a  dancing  frock,  rather  short, 
about  ankle  length,  with  an  Oriental  lace  rose  de- 
sign above  the  folds  and  around  the  low  Dutch 
neck.  A  folded  blue  messaline  girdle  gave  it  just 
the  touch  of  color  to  enhance  the  beauty  of  such 
a  gown.  Most  of  the  sleeves,  and  nearly  all  in 
kimono  style,  are  just  above,  or  at  the  elbow,  and 
edged  with  the  contrasting  shade  of  silk  used,  or 
elaborately  trimmed  with  the  lace,  or  otherwise,  to 
match  the  rest  of  the  gown.  Some  sleeves  and 
short  kimono  yokes  are  entirely  lace,  which  gives  a 
very  pleasing  effect.  Oriental  bead-work  gave  an 
altogether  distinct  "air"  to  this  frock,  as  the 
neck  was  finished  with  a  design  just  below  the 
piping  of  blue   silk. 

Indian  Bead-Work  Much  Used. 
A  plain  ocean-blue  marquisette  had  the  Indian 
bead-work  in  white  around  the  decollette  neck,  and 
a  wide  design  of  the  same  was  embroidered  all 
around  the  skirt  above  a  wide  band  of  Maltese 
laee  inserted  just  above  the  three-inch  hem.  A 
narrow  piping  of  white  messaline  formed  the  high 
waist  line,  the  skirt  being  simply  shirred  into  the 
waist.  This  Indian  bead- work  is  something  ex- 
tremely chic  and  modish  just  now,  and  will  be  a 
distinctive  feature  on  many  a  natty  afternoon  or 
evening  gown.  The  little  white  beads  can  be 
bought  by  the  string  or  bunch,  and  may  be  em- 
broidered on  by  the  home  dressmaker.  Imported 
gowns  that  have  the  maker's  name  on  from  "Gay 
Paree"  or  London,  bring  pretty  high  figures — 
which  is  better  for  some  of  us  to  place  elsewhere, 
though  we  can  duplicate,  you  know,  and  no  one 
is  the  "wiser,  for  the  label  is  always  inside  of  an 
imported  gown,  which  naturally  gives  us  the  ad- 
vantage over  the  importers  in  that  respect. 

A  Real  Novelty. 
But  the  novelty  marquisette,  which  was  men- 
tioned before,  is  really  a  novelty  in  texture  and 
beauty.  One  of  the  models  displayed  had  a  unique 
combination  in  the  undergown.  A  wide  navy  messa- 
line band  formed  the  bottom  of  the  skirt,  and  just 
above  it,  another  wide  band  of  Maltese  laee  was 
joined  to  a  yoke  of  corn  silk  with  a  narrow  one- 
inch  band  of  the  blue  messaline.  The  under-waist 
of  corn  silk  had  a  two-inch  band  of  navy  across 
the  bust,  and  the  whole  combination  shimmered 
through  the  novelty  marquisette  that  covered  it  in 
tunic  effect,  till  one  must  needs  los'e  herself 
in  admiration  for  those  master  creative  minds  that 
strive  so  hard  to  meet  the  extravagant  and  capri- 
cious demands  of  the  world  of  fashion.  Corn  silk 
outlined  the  low  neck,  with  full  sleeves  of  eluny  in 
elbow  length.     Oriental  bead-work  around  the  neck

and  a  braided  corn  and  navy  messaline  girdle  en- 
hanced the  beauty  of  this  gown,  while  just  a  touch 
of  gilt  fringe  finished  the  lower  edge  of  the  mar- 
qnisette  tunic,  gleaming  over  the  navy  band  under 
neatn. 

With  tulle,  chiffon,  silk  mull,  marquisette  or,  in 
fact,  any  of  the  sheer  fabrics  which  are  used,  a 
tiuicli  nf  siinie  contrasting  shade  always  tends  to 
give  it  a  nattier  and  daintier  appearance.  It  may 
be  only  as  piping  for  waistline,  neck  and  sleeves. 
Or  a  wide  folded  girdle,  with  bands  of  same  around 
the  bottom  or  just  above  the  hem  of  the  skirt;  still 
niie  should  always  have  some  little  foreign  touch 
to  her  gowns,  but  be  sure  that  the  shade  harmonizes 
with  the  complexion,  else  the  beauty  is  lost  in  the 
incongruity.  Foulards  are  again  to  the  fore  as  a 
dainty  and  serviceable  fabric  for  afternoon  or 
dancing  frocks.  The  models  shown  this  spring 
eclipse  those  heretofore  shown,  if  possible.  Dots 
ami  stripes  in  most  any  of  the  colors  and  shades, 
as  well  as  black  and  white,  combine  nicely  with 
plain  messaline  to  match  either  the  ground  color 
or  dots.  Pin  stripes  axe  even  daintier  than  ever, 
and  a  little  touch  of  Borne  pastel  shade  or  cerise 
tin-  outlining  the  necks  and  sleeves  brightens  these 
silks  wonderfully. 

In  the  Lingerie  Gowns 
An-  some  very  natty  designs,  and  most  of  them 
are  very  much  trimmed.  The  combinations  are 
unique  in  many — for  lace,  perhaps  two  or  three 
kinds,  as  Cluny,  Val  and  Irish,  may  be  used  on  one 
gown,  or  allover  embroidery  with  Val  and  Cluny. 
Tiny  tucking  in  the  lengthwise  effect,  which  can  be' 
bought,  by  the  yard,  is  pretty  and  chic,  placed  be- 
bween  rows  of  lace  inserting  as  bands.  Sometimes 
it  is  used  as  a  yoke  for  the  skirt,  with  rows  of  lace 


inserting  to  join  it  to  the  waist,  then  a  unrmu 
band     of    the     tin-king    comes,     with     perhaps    allovei 

embroidery  or  i  in-  ground  material  with  lace  in- 
serted in  V  shape  or  a  floral  design  in  hand  em 
broidery  to  finish  the  fronl  of  the  waist.  Narrow 
skirls   are    slill    the    thing,   but   one's   own    ingenuity 

may  be  taxed  to  design  her  gowns,  there  being  so 

many    ideas  displayed. 

Yokes  on  skirt  are  good,  with  a  scant  flounce  of 
wide  embroidery,  or  of  the  material  used,  with  a 
wide  hem  and  tucks  and  inserting  of  lace.  The 
tiny  lengthwise  lucking  is  used  for  inserting  in  the 
flounce,  too.  hand  embroidery  in  clusters,  or  a 
Scroll  design  exl ending  around  the  sk  irt ,  and  a 
he,i\  iiy  embroidered  one  on  the  waist,  are  very 
fetching  and  something  new.  If  a  plainer  yoke  is 
used  tor  the  skirt,  a  floral  design  embroidered 
around  the  lower  edge  where  the  flounce  is  gath- 
ered on,  and  the  same  design  on  the  flounce  in  a 
wnlei  pal  tern,  with  a  dainty  narrow  embroidery 
around  the  lnw  Dutch  or  square  neck  and  elbow 
sleeves,  is  an  extremely  dainty  way  to  make  up 
batiste  or  mull.  Allover  embroidery  is  also  used 
for  yokes,  or  cut  in  bands  for  inserting  between 
tm-ks  or  lace.  For  negligee  or  house  wear,  as  well 
as   for  the   street,  the  styles   for 

Separate  Skirts  and  Waists 
are  many  and  natty.  A  wool  skirt  of  navy,  or  in 
any  of  the  prevailing  colors  or  black,  goes  very 
nicely  with  shirtwaists  in  the  plain  tailored  style, 
or  the  daintier  and  filmier  chiffon,  batiste  and  silk 
mull  waists.  Some  of  the  newest  chiffon  waists 
have  the  Indian  bead  work  in  white  around  the 
Dutch  neck  and  a  small  design  on  the  three-fourths 
or  elbow  sleeves.  The  lingerie  waists  are  very 
elaborately  trimmed  with  lace  and  embroidery.  In 
tact,  it  would  seem  as  though  Dame  Fashion  was 
endeavoring  to  try  her  skill,  as  well  as  the  patience 
of  her  followers,  by  this  season's  vagaries. 

Never  mind,  as  long  as  she  adheres  to  the  pic- 
turesque, but  when  the  grotesque  is  introduced,  then 
it  is  time  to  rebel.  With  all  dainty  gowns,  worn 
with  pumps  or  low  shoes,  the  hand  embroidered 
hose  is  correct.  Plain  silk  hosiery  is  always  ele- 
gant, but  where  one  thinks  she  wants  something 
different,  let  her  try  her  skill  on  those  same  plain 
hose,  with  dainty  embroidery  up  the  instep  or  on 
each  side.  Long  gloves  will  always  be  correct  with 
short  sleeves,  for  either  the  street  or  evening  re- 
ceptions,  parties,   etc. 

In  Jewelry  Novelties 
are  found  many  ideas  to  go  with  the  gowns.  Those 
dear  little  Holland  or  Dutch  pins  for  the  collar  or 
jabot  in  hard  enamel  and  colors,  and  California 
flowers  in  natural  colors,  also  in  hard  enamel,  are 
really  what  we've  been  looking  for,  though  perhaps 
unconsciously,  for  they  will  certainly  appeal  to  the 
heart,  and  are  really  quite  inexpensive.  The  hearts 
of  the  flowers  have  tiny  semi-precious  stones  inset, 
and  come  in  single  flowers  or  clusters.  Butter- 
flies are  also  shown.  Long  lorgnette  or  vanity 
chains  are  nice  in  silver,  gold  and  gun  metal.  Green 
or  Pompeiian  gold  is  quite  a  feature  now  in  belt 
pins  as  well  as  in   chains. 

But  do  not  forget  the  vanities,  for  they  are  so 
helpful  (?)  at  the  beaches  or  for  outing  purposes. 
Really,  though,  some  may  be  blissfully  unconscious 
of  their  existence,  as  well  as  ignorant  of  their  use 
fulness,  so  a  brief  description  will  suffice  to  en- 
lighten them:  On  the  short  chains  attached  to  a 
long  chain  worn  around  the  neck,  depends  a  tiny 
mirror,  puff  and  powder  box,  and  nail  cleaner  and 
file.  They  are  very  flat  and  appear  only  as  pend- 
ants or  lockets,  and  may  be  in  plain  gold  or  inset 
with  precious  or  semi-precious  stones.  Tally  cards 
are  also  carried  like  that.  Round  or  oblong  in 
shape  are  these  vanities  or  tally  card  cases,  and 
they  are  quite  an  adjunct  to  one's  toilet.  Flat  hat 
pins  are  being  used  more  now,  as  the  hats  are 
mostly  smaller — or  rather,  the  crowns  are.  Very 
pretty  and  dainty  are  some  of  the 

Latest  Ideas  in  Millinery. 

Rough  straw  continues  in  favor,  though  the  fine 
Milans,  Neapolitans  and  hemp  are  always  good.  A 
turban  which  caught  my  fancy,  very  high  and 
lather  small,  was  fashioned  from  the  narrow  brim 
upwards,  with  a  bed  of  tiny  ferns  through  which 
sprays  of  lilies-of-the-valley  were  thickly  scattered. 
The  lower  part — not  strictly  a  brim,  but  could  pass 
for  one— was  of  corn-colored  lace  straw,  with  a 
green    velvet    fold   between    the    foliage   and    straw.

JOHN  C.  PELTON,  Deceased. 


of  Nova  Scotia,  and  came  across  the  plains  to  Cal- 
ifornia.    A  widow  and  seven  children  survive.

around  the  Horn.  On  December  26,  1849j  Pelton

ceased served  for  many  years  as  superintendent,

his  aeath  Pelton,  who  was  recognized  as  the  direct 
parent  of  the  State's  public-school  system  and  de- 
voted his  time  and  talents  to  that  service  rather 
than  the  accumulation  of  gold,  composed  these  lines, 
which  were  among  his  effects: 

Nothing  but  leaves,  poor,  worthless  leaves, 

For  them  it  is  the  spirit  grieves. 

No  garnered  sheaves,  nothing  but  leaves; 

Poor,   worthless   leaves. 

In  all  these  years,  long,  toilsome  years, 
'Mid  careless  doubt  and  toil  and  tears, 
I've  garnered  nought  of  golden  ears — 
Nothing  but  leaves,  poor,  worthless  leaves. 
For  this  it  is  the  spirit  grieves. 

Like  ye,  I've  worn  no  burnished  crown. 

Mine  were  rather  a  thorny  crown; 

No  laurel  nor  palm  nor  bay 

Are  found  above  my  temple  gray; 

Nothing  but  leaves,  poor,  worthless  leaves. 

For   this,   alas,   my   spirit   grieves.

Oakland — A  wr\  pleasant  evening  was  Bpent 
mi  March  I  itli.  when  Grand  Presidenl  Mamie  Gt. 
m  paid  her  official  visit  to  Mission  Bells  Par- 
lor, No.  175.  The  hall  was  tastefully  decorated 
with  acacia,  white  lilies  and  greena  Over  thirty 
guests  were  assembled,  there  being  delegations  from 
Estudillo,  Bear  Flag  and  Aloha  Parlors.  Grand 
Vice-President  &nna  F.  Lacey  and  P.  G.  P.  Stein- 
bach  were  also  in  attendance.  The  ritualistic  work 
was  exemplified  with  splendid  success,  largely  due 
to  the  efforts  of  D.  D.  G.  P.  Louise  R.  Straub, 
■who  is  also  a  membei  of  Mission  Bells  Parlor,  and 
who  is  ever  readj  to  offer  her  untiring  services 
to  her  fellow  sisters.  She  is  indeed  an  active  and 
>rker. 

One  of  the  feat  i  es  ol  the  evening  was  a  sur- 
prise given  the  members  in  the  form  of  a  $25" 
cheek  presented  by  their  fellow  member,  Guada- 
lupe ArcegOj  to  go  towards  the  flag  fund.  She  is 
indeed  loved  by  all,  and  has  been  accepted  as  the 
Parlor's  fairy  god-mother.  The  Parlor  was  con 
gratulal  ed  bj  Grand  1  'resident  Peyton,  wlm  also 
gave  a  very  interesting  account  of  the  Native 
Dauglit'-i  - '  Borne.  Many  pleasant  wishes  were  ex- 
tended  to  this  young   Parlor   by   those  present. 

Following  the  Parlor  business  session,  a  social 
session  was  indulged  in.  during  which  refreshments 
were  3erved.  At  the  close  of  the  Lenten  season. 
Mission  Bells  Parlor  will  give  an  elaborate  vaude- 
ville entertainment,  and  already  has  the  arrange- 
ments well   in   hand.

REVEALS   INTERESTING   FACTS. 

Grand  Secretary  Laura  J.  Frakes  sends  The 
Grizzly  Bear  the  following  interesting  account  of 
;:    recent    visit   to   Gait,   Sacramento   County,   where

Seldom  lias  the  writer  witnessed  mum.'  pi 

This  Parlor  has  whal   is  ded  in  mosl  everj   other 

Parlor — a  good  organist,  a  thorough  musician.  This 
we  all  know  counts  much  in  the  success! 
of  i  lie  ritualistic  work,  for  good  music  adds  to  the 
beauty  and  impressive ness  of  the  work,  making  the 
ritual  ceremony  more  pleasing  and  thereby  more 
deeply  instilling  into  our  hearts  the  truth-  de 
to  impart.  This  little  organist  bad  ye1  another  ac- 
complishment, so  necessary  in  all  lodge  room  work — 
she  knew  how  to  march,  and  she  knew  how  to  drill 
others.  The  floor  work  was.  therefore,  strictly  mili- 
tary, the  results  excellent,  and  Chabolla  Parlor  is 
to  be  congratulated  upon  having  so  efficient  an  offi- 
cer in  this  special  line  of  work.  Did  time  and  space 
allow,  the  writer  would  be  delighted  to  go  into  de- 
tail in  re  the  various  officers,  but  suffice  to  say  that 
the  books  of  the  several  officers  were  well  kept,  and 
the  marshal  attentive  to  duty.  The  Parlor  under 
the  guidance  of  a  most  enthusiastic  little  president 
was  a  most  hospitable  hostess,  and  the  Grand  Pres- 
idenl and  Grand  Secretary  were  both  delighted 
with  the  reception  tendered  them.  The  banquet  was 
a  sumptuous  one  and  enjoyed  by  all.  Sisters  Gra- 
ham, Goodfellow  and  Whitaker  met  the  grand  offi- 
cers  at  the  depot  and  escorted  them  to  the  hotel, 
where  everything  had  been  arranged  for  the  comfort 
and  pleasure  of  Chabolla Js  guests.  Later  the  Grand 
Secretary  became  the  guest  of  .Mrs.  Whitaker. 

It  might  be  interesting  to  know  something  about 
the  name  of  this  enthusiastic  Parlor — ' ( Chabolla. ' * 
It  is  an  historical  name,  having  a  place  in  early 
California  history.  "Chabolla"  was  the  name  of' 
the  pioneer  to  whom  was  ceded  the  grant  "Rancho 
San  Juan  Ins  Mokelumnes"  by  the  Mexican  govern- 
ment. This  grant  covers  many  miles  of  very  valua- 
ble land  in  and  around  Gait.  Owing  to  the  popu- 
larity of  the  venerable  pioneer  owner  of  the  grant, 
it  was  generally  called  *  *  <  liabolla' '  grant,  the  orig- 
inal name.  "Rancho  San  Juan  los  Mokelumnes.'' 
being  too  long  to  be  remembered,  and  considered 
too  pretty  to  be  pronounced  other  than  in  the  sweet 
of   i  he   Spanish    tongue. 

While  enjoying  the  hospitality  of  the  Whitaker 
home,  the  Grand  Secretary  had  the  unexp 
pleasure  of  finding  there  a  most  sensible  little  boy — 
a  native  son  of  a  Native  Son.  Andrew  is  his  name. 
Now,  Andrew  is  just  a  little  over  six  years  old.  and 
imt  a  very  robust  little  fellow  either,  but  let  me 
till  you  some  of  the  things  he  does:  This  little  003 
has  an  orange  grove  all  his  own.  Every  night  he 
goes  out,  all  alone,  to  this  grove  and  eovers  each 
One  of  the  115  tiers  with  what  is  called  a  hood,  to 
keep  jack  frost  from  nipping  the  tender  leaves  and 
buds.  Then  he  feeds  his  little  Shetland  pony,  and 
gathers  the  eggs  that  his  own  chickens  lay.  After 
the  eat  and  dog  are  made  c  >mf  or  table  for  the  night. 
Andrew  changes  his  overalls  and   waist   for  a  house

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAK 


April 


IN    HONOR    OF 

LINCOLN'S 


BIRTHDAY 


Lincoln's  birthday,  the  principal  and  teachers  of 
the  Garfield  school,  San  Francisco,  entertained  the 
members  of  Garfield  Post,  G.A.R.,  and  Garfield 
Corps,  Ladies  of  the  G.A.R.  The  members  of  Keith 
Parlor.  No.  137,  X.D.G.W..  and  San  Francisco  Par- 
lor, No.  49.  N.S.G.W.,  who  served  on  the  dedication 
committee  at  the  time  the  school  was  dedicated, 
were  also  invited  to  be  present.  Mario  Ferno  rep- 
resented Salician  Council,  Y.M.L,  which  presented 
the  boys  of  the   school  with  a  drum. 

The  children  of  the  school,  under  the  leadership 
of  Miss  Estelle  Carpenter,  rendered  operatic  selec- 
tions in  Italian  and  patriotic  selections  in  Eng- 
lish. They  were  the  same  children  chosen  to  sing 
for  Madam  Tetrazzini,  and  no  wonder  the  great 
songstress  was  thrilled  with  their  music.  Many  a 
grizzled  old  veteran,  enthused  with  their  singing, 
allowed  a  tear  to  roll  down  his  eheek  unabashed. 
Members  of  the  Board  of  Education,  the  Grand 
Army  of  the  Republic  and  Native  Sons  and  Na- 
tive Daughters  addressed  the   children  and   guests. 

After  the  exercises,  Miss  Mary  Seherer,  princi- 
pal of  the  school,  invited  those  present  to  a  ban- 
quet at  which  she  acted  as  toastmistress.  Miss 
Estelle  Carpenter  and  Mr.  Ferno  delighted  with 
musical  selections;  Mr.  Sbarboro  spoke  of  the  Pa- 
cific-Panama Exposition;  Mr.  Boyle  and  Mr.  Alt- 
man  of  natural  sites  for  the  fair;  Col.  Adams  and 
Mrs.  Adams  of  the  G.A.R. ,  of  Lincoln  and  his 
work;  Mr.  Parsons  of  the  North  Beach  Record,  of 
the  issues  of  the  day  as  compared  with  those  of 
Lincoln's  time;  Mrs.  Frances  Noehl.  past  president 
of  Keith  Parlor.  X.D.G.W..  of  the  duty  of  the  Na- 
tive Son  and  Native  Daughter  toward  the  upbuild- 
ing of  the  industries  of  the  State. 

Miss  G.  Carroll,  a  teacher  in  the  public  schools. 
spoke  of  Lincoln  's  example  for  the  men  and  women 
of  this  great  nation — of  his  natural  nobility  of  soul 
and  mind.  She  read  the  following  poem,  the  lines 
of  which  were  written  extemporaneously  by  her- 
self at  the  banquet  table.  The  patriotic  lines  ap- 
pealed to  the  assemblage  to  such  an  extent  that  the 
reading  evoked  great  applause.  Miss  Carroll  is  a 
member  of  Keith  Parlor.  N.D.G.W.,  and  is  a  typieal 
girl  of  the  Golden  West: 

"THE  BOYS   IN  BLUE." 

The  ranks  are  growing  thin,  boys, 

The  boys  are  getting  few, 
And  we're  not  so  gay  and  strong,  boys, 

As  we  were  in  sixty-two. 

But  our  hearts  beat  just  as  strong,  boys, 

When  we  hear  the  bugle  blow, 
As  when  we  faced  the  rebel  army 

In  those  wartimes  long  ago.

PRESENTS  NEAT  TROPHY  TO 

STIMULATE  INTEREST 

=H  HE  WEEK  OF  MARCH  I3TH  WAS 
tilled  with  interest  for  members  of 
the  Los  Angeles  Parlors  of  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  Judge 
Robert  M.  Clarke,  Grand  Trustee, 
of  Cabrillo  Parlor,  No.  114,  Ventura, 
having  sent  out  word  that  he  would 
in  that  time  visit  the  five  local  Par- 
lors officially.  The  visits  began  on 
Monday,  March  13th,  when  Los  An- 
geles, No.  45,  was  honored  with  the 
presence  of  the  grand  officer;  Tues- 
day, Sierra  Madre,  No.  235,  was  attended;  Wednes- 
day. Corona,  No.  196;  Thursday,  La  Fiesta,  No.  236, 
and  Friday,  Eamona.  No.  109.  There  was  a  goodly 
attendance  of  the  local  membership,  irrespective  of 
Parlors,  on  the  occasion  of  each  night's  visit,  and 
social  sessions,  with  light  refreshments,  terminated 
each  Parlor's  meeting. 

Grand  Trustee  Clarke  delivered  an  interesting  ad- 
dress to  the  members  each  evening,  and  laid  particu- 
lar stress  upon  the  fact  that,  as  he  interpreted  the 
underlying  principles  of  the  Order,  each  Parlor 
should  aid  in  the  restoration  of  the  early-day  his- 
torical landmarks,  and  help  to  perpetuate  the  deeds 
and  memories  of  the  pioneers.  The  speaker  said  he 
did  not  believe  the  Order  was  founded  with  the  in- 
tention of  building  up  a  commercial  organization 
for  the  payment  of  sick  and  death  benefits,  and  he 
did  not  approve  of  efforts  being  made  to  secure 
members  along  such  lines.  The  Order,  in  his  mind, 
is  purely  one  of  sentiment,  and  love  for  the  State's 
traditional  history  should  alone  influence  native  Cal- 
ifornians  in  becoming  affiliated,  in  order  that  each 
one  might  do  his  just  share  toward  perpetuating 
that  history  and  preserving  to  future  generations 
the  few  remaining  landmarks. 

Judge  Clarke  said  he  hoped  the  day  was  not  far 
distant  when  every  Parlor  would  contribute  a  large 
percentage  of  its  revenue  to  the  preservation  of  the 
State's  landmarks  and  the  erection  of  suitable  mon- 
uments throughout  the  length  and  breadth  of  the 
State  to  immortalize  the  memories  of  each  and  every 
Pioneer  Father  and   Mother. 

To  Stimulate  Interest. 
On  the  occasion  of  the  visit  to  Sierra  Madre  Par- 
lor, ±\o.  235,  W.  J.  Poole,  a  young  and  enthusiastic 
member,  sprung  a  complete  surprise  on  the  assem- 
bled Natives,  when  he  arose  and,  iu  the  course  of 
extended  remarks  pertaining  to  the  building  up  of 
the  Order  in  me  southern  part  of  the  State,  pre- 
sented the  Parlor  with  a  handsome  cub  bear  statue. 
resting  upon  a  pedestal   on  which  is  a  silver  plate 

Yes,  our  fighting  days  are  over, 

And   there's  peace   throughout  the  land, 

Yet  our  sons  would  fight  as  bravely 
If   occasion   should   demand. 

Why  should  we  then,  old  comrades, 
For  the  cause  and  flag  have  fears? 

Will  not  the  spirit  of  our  Lincoln 
Guide  us  through  the  coming  years? 

So  with  thankful  hearts  uplifted. 

Praise  the  God  of  Hosts  today, 
For  a  country  undivided 

Under  Freedom 's  holy  sway.

rifieed  all  this,  for  many  and  oft  were  the  times 
when  crossing  the  plains,  and  threading  the  narrow 
mountain  passes,  'where  the  last  crust  of  bread  in 
the  snow  bound  canyon  was  freely  shared, '  that 
whole  families  were  wiped  out  and  untold  atrocities 
committed  against  these  Pioneers  by  their  ever- 
lurking  foe.  ready  to  let  fly  the  poisoned  shaft  from 
behind  a  tree.  My  friends,  you  have  heard  this  time 
and  again,  this  old  story;  of  how  men  conquered  a 
wilderness  and  founded  an  empire  rich  in  opulence, 
in  great  and  proud  cities  and  manifold  industries, 
and"  all  that  goes  to  make  up  the  complex  civiliza- 
tion of  modern  times.  You  have  heard  it.  as  I  say, 
time  and  again,  this  old  story,  but  to  me  it  is  a 
story  that  is  always  new,  and  each  time  I  hear  it 
there  is  an  added  charm  which  enthralls  me  as  I  see 
that  great  panorama  of  history  unfolded,  from  the 
heighths  of  the  present  which  we  have  attained, 
thanks  to  the  foundation  which  they  builded  so  well. 
We  look  again  and  see  them  crossing  the  plain  in 
their  crude  but  substantial  prairie  schooner;  we 
see  the  mining  camp  spring  up  and  communities 
formed;  we  see  one  of  these  camps  grow  from  a 
straggling  village  in  the  sand  dunes  to  a  city  which 
truly  must  have  been  founded  at  a  Golden  Gate, 
and  we  see  the  Spanish  pueblo  grow  to  a  world  mart 
with  strides  that  has  caused  the  world  to  gasp  and 
rub  its  eyes.  'Tis  a  wonderful  period  of  history 
that  we  observe  from  this  height.  'Tis  good  to  be 
.here. 

"In  commemoration  of  these  men,  a  great  ship 
was  launched — our  Order — and  from  time  to  time 
other  ships  have  kissed  the  great  unfathomable  sea 
of  Friendship,  Loyalty  and  Charity,  and  today  our 
Parlor  is  one  of  the  units  of  this  great  squadron. 
As  I,  in  my  turn,  have  stood  watch  on  the  bridge 
of  the  Sierra  Madre  as  a  member  of  your  Good  of 
the  Order  Committee,  never  losing  faith  in  the  course 
laid  out  by  the  Admiral  in  command  of  this  great 
squadron,  our  Order,  fulfilling  and  accomplishing  its 
ultimate  mission.  I  have  felt  as  if  we  were  drifting. 
We  have  come  to  the  point,  not  where  the  course 
must  be  changed,  but  where  new  fuel  must  be  ad- 
ded. We  must  right  the  ship,  and  steer  it  in  the 
course  laid  out  in  the  foundation  principles  of  our 
Order.  We  can  best  do  this  by  stimulating  a  friend- 
ly rivalry  in  the  ritualistic  work  of  the  Order,  which 
so  beautifully  exhorts  us  to  be  loyal  to  our  State 
and  our  nation,  and  revere  our  Pioneer  ancestors. 

"Brothers,  I  have  here  a  little  cub  bear,  which  I 
trust  will  be  the  cause  of  a  great  deal  of  rivalry  be- 
tween the  different  Parlors,  now  existing  or  to  be 
hereafter  organized,  in  the  city  of  Los  Angeles. 
May  this  striving  and  rivalry  be  in  the  same  spirit 
of  friendly  playfulness  that  this  little  bear  seems  to 
typify  as  I  look  upon  him.  Yet,  I  would  that  it 
may  be  in  as  much  earnestness  as  he  seems  to  ex1 
hibit  in  regard  to  his  troublesome  paw.  It  is  my 
intention  to  present  this  little  bear  to  Sierra  Madre 
Parlor,  to  be  held  as  a  drill-team  trophy  to  be  com- 
peted for  by  the  various  Parlors,  under  conditions 
to  be  announced  later.

AS  TOLD  BY  A  FORTY- MIME 


(BY  FRANCIS  FAIRCHILD,  PLACERVILLE.) 


OWARD  THE  NORTHERN  BOR- 
der  of  El  Dorado  County,  where  the 
foothills  of  the  Sierra  Nevada 
Mountains  begin  to  enlarge  and 
blend  with  the  greater  elevations, 
stands  a  prominent  ridge  from  the 
summit  of  which  ;i  birdseye  view 
can  tie  had  of  the  country  north, 
south  and  west,  that  is  well  worth 
Tflg  to     witness. 

The  oldest  gold  seeker,  who  came  to 
that  locality  In  1849,  has  ever 
known  the  eminence  as  Pilot  Hill,  ami  the  legend- 
ary account  of  its  naming  is.  that  John  C.  Fremont 
so  christened  it.  after  having  scaled  to  its  summit 
during  one  of  his  early  explorations  in  California. 
Ir  so  happened  that,  near  the  end  of  December, 
1908,  with  a  companion,  I  was  driving  upon  the  road 
between  Salmon  Falls  and  Centerville,  skirting  the 
southern  end  of  Pilot  Hill,  and  incidentally  discuss 
-  peculiarities.  The  suggestion  was  made  to 
climb  to  its  summit,  neither  of  us  ever  having  been 
upon  it.  though  both  born  almost  beneath  its 
shadow.      Hitching   the    horses   to    a    tree   upon    its 

>' led  slope,  we  began  its  ascent  or  four,     it  was 

an  ideal  California  winter  day.  The  November 
rains  had  laid  the  dust  upon  the  highway,  and  there 
had  been  just  enough  light  travel  to  make  it 
smooth;  the  pollen  had  been  washed  from  the  ever- 
green trees  and  shrubbery,  and  the  ground  was 
just  damp  enough  to  render  our  foothold  firm,  when, 

were  it  dry.  the  pine  u lies  and  other  dead  leaves 

would  have  made  the  path  slippery  and  our  travel 
difficult. 

In  less  than  half  an  hour,  we  were  upon  the  sum 
The  ridge  is  about  half  a  mile  in  length  from 


mit. 


north  to  SOUth.  very  narrow,  with  precipitous 
cline  upon  both  eastern  and  western  sides  Stand- 
ing upon  its  api'x  were  perhaps  a  dozen  pine  trees 
of  good  size  and  height,  beside  shrubbery.  ;md  the 
surface  of  the  ground  was  strewn  with  scoria,  chal- 
eedonous  fragments  and  other  igneous  rocks  which, 
to  our  unsophisticated  geological  minds,  suggested 
volcanic  phenomena  a1   so  ne  re te  period. 

But  the  view!  There  was  no  fog  in  the  valley,  as 
the  early  vain--  had  cleared  the  atmosphere,  and  the 
sun  in  its  full  glory  was  shining  over  all.  To  the 
north  and  south  hamlets  nestled  in  the  foothills, 
surrounded  with  orchards;  to  the  westward  the 
grand  Sacramento  Valley,  with  the  great  river  of 
that  name  and  the  tributary  American  and  lesser 
streams;  and  the  Capital  City  itself  in  plain  view, 
the  golden  dome  of  the  State  House,  blazing  in  its 
sun-kissed  splendor — a  range  of  plain-covered  vine- 
yard and  orchard,  gently  modulating  foothills  va- 
riously improved,  era  ft  laden  river- — a  scenic  pano 
rama  unparalleled  in  variety  and  grandeur.  And 
in  the  background  to  the  east  were  the  awe-inspir- 
ing peaks  of  the  Sierra  Nevada  Mountains,  ■ 
with  their  eternal   mantles   of   snow. 

In    deep   admiration   of   this     scenic     display 
sauntered  along  the  crest  of  the  ridge,  occasionally 
flushing  a  covey  of  mountain   quail   and  disturbing 
a  si  pi  ir  re]  engaged  in  extracting  nuts  from   b   pine 
cone — all  the  while  believing  ourselves  to   be 


up. mi  the  Pilot'-  erest.  In  this  we  were  mistaken 
for.  when  we  were  near  its  northern  extremity,  we 
were  surprised  to  see  another — au  aged,  grizzled 
man.  large  of  stature-  -absorbed  in  contemplating 
tin'  panorama  to  the  westward.  Apparently  he  had 
nor  seen  us.  The  meeting  place  was  such  that  we 
could  not  well  pas-,  unnoticed,  and  therefore  as  we 
approached,  saluted  him.  He  seemed  rather  reti- 
cent, but  after  a  few  remarks  about  the  we 
and  scenery,  entered   into  conversation. 

As  near  as  |  can  remember,  this  is  what  he  told 

us:       "Yes,    this    is    ;i    beautiful    "winter"    day    and    SO 

neai  l  hristmas.  Yonder  view  of  t he  Sacramento 
River  reminds  me  of  the  first  (hristmas  Day  I 
-pent  in  California.  1  was  thinking  of  it  all.  as  I 
gazed  upon  that  shining  stream  nedr  the  horizon. 
Would  you  rare  to  hear  about  it  ? ' '  Indeed  we 
would,  we  answered  in  unison,  and  all  three  selected 
a  seat  in  the  friendly  shade  of  a  manzanita  bush, 
when    the   old   man    resumed: 

"In  the  summer  of  1849,  fresh  from  the  tropics, 
I  stepped  upon  the  soil  of  California  from  a  newly 
arrived  ship,  in  San  Francisco,  upon  Montgomery 
Street,  near  where  Pacific  street  crosses  it.  for  the 
water  at  high  tide  did  not  come  there  then.  But 
whew,  what  a  climate!  Foggy  and  windy.  Huge 
sand  dunes  loomed  up  close  to  the  shore  of  the  bay 
and  the  afternoon  breezes  drifted  the  sand  hither 
and  thither  just  as  I  had  seen  snow  whirled  about 
upon  cold  winter  days  at  my  native  home  in  t he 
Atlantic  --tares.  A  few  days  and  night--  in  San 
Francisco  were  sufficient  to  disgust  me  with  the 
place,  for  the  few  houses  and  scant  foliage  were 
insufficient   to   break    the  for. a'  of  the  cutting  wind

The  schooner  was  a  staunch  little  craft  which,  a 
short    time   before,   bad    sailed   through    the   Golden 

Gate    from     Nantucket,    was    a     fast    sailer,    and    long 

before  daybreak,  the  morning  after  leaving  San 
Francisco  Bay,  had  carried  us  into  a  deeidedly 
wanner   climate   than    the  prevailing   one   upon    the 

' '  There  were  many  passengers — <  !hinese,  men 
from  Sydney  (then  an  English  penal  colony),  Ore- 
gonians,  Chilanos,  Mexicans  ( former  employes  of 
the   Hudson   Bay   company.)    and   quite  a    sprinkling 

of  Americans  like  myself,  the  whole  forming  a  dis- 
tinctly cosmopolitan  group.  Among  the  latter  class 
was  Samuel  Brannan.  and  well  do  1  remember  how 
he  detailed  the  plan  upon  which  Sacramento  City 
had  recently  been  laid  out.  with  its  alphabetically 
and  numerically  named  streets.  Another  passenger 
was  Martin  Van  Werner,  a  genial  man  from  Illinois, 
with  whom  I  soon  became  acquainted  and  liked,  the 
liking  becoming  mutual.  He  was  five  years  my 
senior,  and  both  being  '  greenhorns '  at  gold  dig- 
ging, decided  to  become  partners  and  follow  some 
'old  miners' — those  who  had  been  in  the  diggings 
the  previous  fall— and  begin  mining  where  they 
Located. 

"  We  followed  them  a  number  of  days,  without 
results,  when  we  found  ourselves  at  Bear  River, 
about  three  miles  from  where  now  is  the  town  of 
Colfax.  The  place  was  not  rich  enough  for  'old 
miners. '  so  they  sail]  they  would  go  north  to 
Feather  River,  an  Werner  and  myself  deciding  to 
try  our  luck  where  we  were.  August  was  then 
pretty  w-ell  advanced,  but  we  began  washing  gravel 
in  a  rocker,  and  by  the  time  the  November  rams 
covered  our  diggings  with  water,  we  had  accumu- 
lated quite  a   'stake.'     Van   was  a  g 1  worker,  an 

excellent  woodsman,  and  one  of  the  best  men  1  ever 
met.  During  the  four  or  five  months  we  were  to- 
gether, we  became  as  affectionate  as  brothers.  1  n 
Illinois  he  had  a  farm  upon  which  there  was  some 
indebtedness,  and  lie  had  left  his  family  in  cl 
When  we  left  the  liar  upon  which  we  worked,  Van 
had  gold  dust  enough  to  cancel  the  debt  and  a  sur- 
plus  to   make   his   family  and   himself  comfortable. 

'  •  We   went    upon   t  he  divide  Viet  ween   Bear   River 
and    the    North    Fork    of   the    American    to    a 
subsequently   called    Ellinoistown,   but   as   there    was 
no  mining  there.  Van  decided  to  go  to  Sacramento 
and    either   go   thence    home   or   procure   convertible 
exchange    to    send    his    family,    and    remain    in    the 
country    another    season,    return    with    me    to    Bea r

and    there    we   paired.      Several    week-    later    E    con- 
eluded  to  go  to  Monterey,  then  the  territorial 
tal,  and  remain  until    favorable   weather  again  pre- 
vailed for  mining.     En   route  to  Monterey,  a1    8 
ramento.  in  looking   for  a    vessel  upon  which 
to  San  Francisco,  I  came  across  Van  and  a   M< 
boy  loading  a  whale  boat   for  a  trip  up  the   Sacra 
mento    River    on    a    hunting    expedition.      Van    had 
already  made  one  Trip,  and   met   with   great   -

til  good  weather  came  again,  and  then  go  to  our 
bar  and  work  the  coming  summer.  So  I  joined  him. 
''Our  firearms  would  be  curiosities  in  these  mod- 
ern times.  Tan's  guns  were  a  long  Kentucky  rifle 
and  a  single-barreled  shotgun  of  immense  bore; 
mine  a  Government  "yager'  and  a  double-barreled 
shotgun;  all,  of  course,  muzzle  loaders.  Besides, 
both  had  old-time  brass-mouthed,  single-barreled 
dragoon  pistols,  carrying  an  ounce  ball.  We  also 
had  knives.  The  boy  had  no  guns;  he  was  to  re- 
main by  the  boat  and  do  chores.  Our  objective 
point  was  up  the  river  some  thirty  or  forty  miles, 
as  Van  described  it.  to  a  large  lake  above  Ox-Bow 
Bend.  The  river  was  running  bank  full,  many 
places  were  overflowed,  and  the  current  so  strong 
that  it  was  laborious  work  for  we  three  not-very  - 
skillful  oarsmen  to  propel  the  boat,  but  finally  we 
reached  a  place  where  there  was  an  immense 
stretch  of  water,  to  the  northeast  of  which  were 
the  two  high  buttes  which  you  can  see  yonder. 
(And  he  pointed  northward  and  the  Marysville 
Buttes  were  sighted  arising  alone,  from  the  great 
plains  of  the  Sacramento  Valley.) 

"Upon  this  supposed  lake,  and  flying  all  about  it, 
were  myriads  of  water  fowl  in  greater  variety  than 
I  had  ever  before  seen — ducks  and  geese  of  various 
kinds,  swans,  pelicans,  cormorants,  cranes,  bitterns, 
coots,  gulls  and  many  other  fowl  by  name  unknown 
to  me.  Between  this  immense  expanse  of  water  and 
the  Sacramento  River  was  a  strip  of  land  mostly 
covered  with  oak,  cottonwood.  willow  and  sycamore 
trees,  amid  which  grew  a  matted  jungle  of  grape 
and  blackberry  vines  and  other  shrubbery,  making 
it   difficult   of  penetration.      Once   in   a   while   there 


yards  away,  with  a  broken  stock;  my  hunting  knife 
lay  on  the  ground  with  a  bloody  point,  and  a  few 
grayish  brown  hairs  clung  to  its  guard. 

"Upon  recovering  sufficiently  to  canvass  the  sit- 
uation, we  came  to  the  conclusion  that  A'an  had 
wounded  the  bear;  that  my  shot  had  also  injured 
it,  and  that,  upon  encountering  me  it  had  struck 
out  aimlessly  with  its  right  paw.  hitting  the  gun 
apparently  in  my  left  hand,  held  nearly  lengthwise 
with  my  body,  thus  driving  it  against  my  faee  as 
it  broke  in  two.  I  could  not  remember  of  drawing 
my  knife,  but  must  have  done  so.  and  thrust  it 
into  its  hide  simultaneously  with  its  blow  upon  me. 

""With  this  experience  so  fresh  in  my  mind,  I 
wanted  to  quit  bear  hunting,  but  as  no  fatality  had 
occurred.  Van  was  determined  to  'bag  his  game.' 
We  thought  the  stricken  bear  was  so  badly  hurt 
that  he  could  not  be  far  away,  and  that  we  could 
soon  find  and  kill  it.  if  it  were  not  already  dead.  I 
tried  to  dissuade  him,  but  could  not.  Again  he  en- 
tered the  thicket,  intending  to  get  the  bear  and  put 
it  aboard  the  boat,  that  we  might  start  down  the 
river  the  next  morning.  An  hour  passed.  The  days 
were  short,  and  darkness  was  approaching.  Hear- 
ing no  sound  from  Van.  I  became  uneasy.  Finally, 
when  it  became  quite  dark  and  he  neither  came  nor 
fired  his  gun.  I  built  a  fire  and  at  intervals  fired  a 
gun. 

"Morning  came,  but  with  it  there  was  no  respond- 
ing shot  from  Van  's  rifle.  Some  four  or  five  miles 
up  the  river  was  another  party  of  hunters,  and  to 
them  I  sent  the  boy  with  a  request  that  they  come 
and  aid  in  searching  for  the  missing  man.  as  I  was 
then  confident  something  serious  had  befallen  him. 


and  easterly,  over  which  many  animals  were  graz- 
ing. Toward  tne  Buttes  I  saw  men  with  teams 
working  with  plows  and  scrapers,  and  going  to 
them  I  learned  they  were  making  a  levee  for  Wm. 
H.  Parks  of  Marysville  to  prevent  an  overflow 
when  the  rivers  left  their  banks. 

"It  was  autumn.  I  was  nonplussed,  for  I  did  not 
think  Van's  lake  was  the  result  of  overflow,  and  I 
left  the  locality  with  a  vague  idea  that  some  mighty 
physical  change  had  been  wrought,  for  which  I 
could  not  account.  During  the  month  of  May  of  the 
following  year,  succeeding  a  winter  of  abundant 
rain  and  snow,  at  the  request  of  a  certain  railroad 
official  I  went  to  Marysville  to  examine  and  report 
upon  some  landed  property  that  he  thought  of  pur- 
chasing, lying  westward  from  that  place.  I  was 
taken  to  the  property,  and  lo,  the  lake  I  had  gone 
to  with  Van  in  1S49  was  before  me!  There  were 
the  great  flocks  of  water  fowl  as  of  yore  and  the 
ridge  of  timber  land  skirting  the  Sacramento  River. 

"Ox-Bow  of  early  history  was  now  Gray's  Bend, 
just  above  the  junction  of  Feather  River  with  the 
Sacramento,  and  when  both  these  great  streams 
were  full  their  united  waters  overflowed  the  ex- 
tensive plain  and  it  was  quite  natural  for  the 
early  pioneer  to  mistake  it  for  a  lake." 

The  old  man  paused.  I  had  been  deeply  inter- 
ested in  his  narrative,  and  thinking  at  some  future 
time  I  mignt  induce  him  to  tell  another  story  of 
his  early  life,  I  asked  his  name.  "Never  mind," 
said  he.  "I  was  onee  well  known  in  this  locality, 
but  after  losing  my  partner  I  never  had  the  heart 
to  return  to  the  bar  upon  Bear  River,  where  he  and 
T  had  spent  so  many  agreeable  days,  but  wandered

would  be  a  small  opening,  upon  the  floor  of  which 
could  be  seen  many  tracks  of  bear,  elk  and  deer. 

"Not  many  days  passed  until  we  had  all  the  wild 
fowl  we  wanted,  besides  the  carcasses  of  two  elk; 
but  notwithstanding  our  boat  was  fairly  loaded, 
Van  insisted  upon  adding  a  bear  to  the  cargo.  As 
it  was  the  intention  to  place  our  game  upon  the 
market  the  day  before  Christmas,  to  Van's  mind 
the  variety  would  be  incomplete  without  a  bear. 
He  was  sure  one  or  more  could  be  aroused  in  a  lit- 
tle while  by  beating  the  thicket,  upon  the  outskirts 
of  which  we  had  seen  many  tracks.  Stationing  me 
in  a  small,  open  place  in  the  timber,  Van  entered 
the  thicket,  hoping  to  arouse  a  bear  and  soon  end 
its  life  with  a  successful  shot.  I  paced  over  the 
limited  ground  assigned  me.  eagerly  awaiting  the 
sound  of  his  gun.  Some  time  elapsed  before  I  heard 
it,  and  while  congratulating  myself  that  his  un- 
erring marksmanship  had  brought  a  bear  down,  was 
startled  by  a  crashing  of  brush  near  the  head  of 
the  little  opening  in  which  I  stood. 

"But  a  moment  elapsed,  when  an  enormous  griz- 
zly leaped  into  the  open,  heading  directly  for  me. 
There  was  no  time  for  retreat;  the  'yager'  went  to 
my  shoulder  and  was  discharged.  Whether  I  aimed 
or  not.  I  do  not  know,  as  the  black  powder  then 
used  and  a  damp  atmosphere  caused  such  a  smoke 
that  I  saw  nothing  after  firing,  and  everything  be- 
came a  blank.  It  was  probably  ten  minutes  after 
I  fired  my  gun  that  I  realized  that  I  had  been  struck 
by  something,  and  was  prone  upon  the  ground, 
dazed.  But  \  an  was  by  me  tendering  assistance, 
having  hurried  to  the  spot  at  the  sound  of  my  gun. 
I  felt  a  soreness  in  my  head;  there  was  a  blue  welt 
the  full  length  of  my  face,  and  a  piece  of  my  left 
shirt    sleeve    missing.      My    gun    was    lying    several 


Four  men  came,  and  six  of  us  traversed  the  thicket 
as  nearly  abreast  as  possible,  paying  no  heed  to  the 
game  we  frightened  from  cover. .  When  night  came, 
not  the  slightest  trace  of  either  man  or  wounded 
bear  had  we  discovered. 

"It  was  the  twenty-second  day  of  December,  and 
we  continued  the  search  two  days  longer,  with  the 
same  result — no  trace  of  Van  or  the  big  grizzly  bear. 
Reluctantly  the  search  was  abandoned,  for  the  nat- 
ural conclusion  was  that  Van  had  unexpectedly 
come  upon  the  stricken  beast,  that  they  had  grap- 
pled in  a  death  struggle  at  the  water's  edge  and, 
embracing,  both  had  fallen  in  and  drowned.  Such 
being  the  probable  fate  of  my  esteemed  comrade, 
his  mysterious  passing  has  ever  since  tinged  my  ex- 
istence with  an  indescribable  gloom. 

■'While  the  search  was  in  progress,  our  boatload 
of  game  spoiled  and  was  thrown  overboard,  and  on 
Christmas  morning  the  boy  and  myself  started  upon 
the  return  trip.  It  was  a  melancholy  Christmas 
and  never  since,  throughout  all  the  passing  decades. 
has  its  anniversary  been  a  'merry'  one  to  me."'  The 
old  man 's  voice  had  become  husky,  and  his  eyes 
were  red.  I  remarked  that  I  did  not  know  of  any 
such  lake  as  he  described,  when  he  continued: 

"Many  years  after  the  occurrence  of  the  tragedy 
related,  curiosity  impelled  me  to  go  to  that  lake. 
Going  by  steamer  to  Knights  Landing,  and  noting 
the  position  of  the  Marysville  Buttes — the  river 
bank  upon  the  opposite  side  had  a  familiar  look — 
I  crossed  the  river  on  Snowball's  ferry  boat  and 
strolled  up  the  bank  several  miles.  A  timbered, 
bramble-covered  ridge  was  there  all  right,  but  east 
of  it  there  was  no  water,  save  an  occasional  small 
pond,  surrounded  by  tules.  dotting  an  extensive 
tract   of  level   land,   stretching  far  away  northerly 


here  and  worked  in  Hastings'  Ravine, 
summer  of  1850  I  climbed  this  same 
eight  years  ago — and  I  came  over  from 
day  to  take  my  last  fond  look  at  the 
closely  associated  with  my  early  life, 
what  changes!  " 

Abruptly  he  remarked,  "Good  day," 
brisk  step  for  an  octogenarian,  he  was 
sight,  going  toward  Centerville.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR

(COMPILED   FOR  THE   GRIZZLY  BEAR  BY   THOMAS  R.  JONES.) 


HE  I'mxy  EXPRESS  ON  .MAY  LSD 
brought  the  news  to  Fort  Churchill 
of  the  attack  upon  a  Massachusetts 
regiment  in  the  streets  of  Balitmore, 
and  thai  the  first  blood  to  be  shed 
in  the  civil  War  had  flowed  bhere 
on  April  19th.  The  clicking  of  the 
telegraph  instruments  was  followed 
by  excitement  throughout  the  whole 
State.  Business  was  entirely  bus 
pended  in  San  Francisco  and  every 
citizen  who  could  get  away  from  his 
duties  rnhed  to  Montgomery  street,  which  was  soon 
filled  i"  overflowing.     Extras  were  printed  as  fast 

as  the  then  crude  methods  of  working  oft'  a  news 
paper  edition  permitted,  and  were  sold  on  the  street 

as  fast  as  offered.  En  every  City,  town  and  mining 
camp  Union  clubs  were  formed.  Strong  resolutions 
sustaining  the  Government  and  the  Union  passed, 
and  a  new  set  of  men  came  to  the  fore  as  leaders 
and  molders  of  public  opinion. 

On  May  11th  a  great  Union  demonstration  was 
held  in  San  Francisco  and  the  demand  for  American 
flags  exhausted  the  supply.  Twenty -five  thousand 
people  gathered  around  the  several  stands  where 
speakers  held  forth  from  noon  until  midnight,  and 
Union  sentiments  were  cheered  to  the  echo.  Sena- 
tors Latham  and  McDougall  were  enthusiastically 
cheered  for  the  opinions  they  expressed.  General 
Sumner,  in  command  of  the  United  States  troops, 
General  Shields,  Samuel  Brannan,  Del  Lake  and 
many  other  prominent  citizens  addressed  the  pat- 
riotic crowds,  who  seemed  insatiable  in  their  desire 
to   hear  and   indorse   Union   sentiments. 

Governor  Downey  wrote  a  letter  regretting  his 
inability  to  be  present,  but  declared  himself  to  be 
an  anti-coercionist,  which  cost  him,  within  twenty- 
four  hours,  his  place  as  a  popular  idol  in  the  hearts 
of  the  citizens  of  California  and  for  a  few  weeks 
caused  him  to  be  the  most  denounced  man  in  public 
life  in  the  State.  He  explained  his  position  mine 
fully,  in  a  subsequent  speech  and  letter,  and  while 
his  opinions  were  the  convictions  of  an  honest 
thinker,  they  were  not  popular  with  the  extreme 
Union    men. 

Senator  Latham,  during  the  month,  addressed 
large  Union  meetings  in  the  principal  towns  in  the 
mining  counties  between  Shasta  and  El  Dorado 
Counties,  doing  great  good  for  the  Union  cause, 
aided  by  local  orators  in  each  place  he  spoke.  Cala- 
veras and  Nevada  Counties  soon  appeared  to  be  the 
strongest  in  Union  sentiment,  while  San  Joaquin 
and  some  of  the  sparsely  settled  southern  counties 
were  shown  to  have  a  large  number  of  citizens  with 
Secession  principles.  The  Stars  and  Stripes  were 
in  great  demand,  and  in  many  of  the  mining  towns 
lofty  flag  poles  and  the  largest  sized  flags  pur- 
chaseable  were  obtained,  and  their  dedication  was 
made  a  day  of  celebration.  Grass  Valley  raised  a 
160-foot  pole;  Red  Dog  erected  one  165  feet  high; 
but  Gold  Flat,  Nevada  County,  with  a  flagpole  200 
feet  high,  had  the  place  of  honor.  The  town  of 
Pine  Grove,  Placer  County,  sent  a  commissioner  to 
buy  the  largest  flag  in  the  metropolis  and  this  was 
26x50   feet. 

Civil   War   Has   Political   Effect. 

F.  J.  Lippett,  in  San  Francisco,  began  raising  the 
first  regiment  of  California  volunteers  to  go  East 
and  enter  the  Union  army.  He  had  500  enlistments 
in  a  few  days,  and  was  preparing  to  organize  them 
into  companies.  Street  musicians  were  reaping  a 
money  harvest  from  enthusiastic  Union  men  to  con- 
tinuously play  ' '  The  Star  Spangled  Banner ' '  and 
other  patriotic  airs,  although  occasionally  some 
exultant  Secessionist  would  outbid  and  have  the 
street  musicians  play  "Dixie"  as  a  change. 

The  enthusiasm  of  the  masses  throughout  the  most 
populous  districts  in  behalf  of  the  Union,  and  the 
organization  of  powerful  Union  clubs  in  the  cities 
and  towns  to  maintain  the  laws  and  frown  down 
treason,  were  a  check  upon  Secession  utterances  and 
a  forerunner  of  a  new  political  alignment  on  the 
part   of   the   citizens. 

The  Breckenridge  wing  and  the  Douglas  wing  of 
the  Democratic  party  made  fruitless  efforts  to  agree 
and  unite  on  a  satisfactory  platform.  The  Repub- 
lican party  was  not  popular  with  a  large  majority 
of  the  Union  men  in  the  two  wings  of  the  Demo- 
cratic party,  so  that,  while  the  state  central  coin 
mittees  of  the  existing  parties  were  arranging  for 
conventions  to  nominate  congressmen,  state  and 
county  officials  to  be  voted  for  on  the  first  Wednes- 
day in  September,  the  Union  men  were  beginning 
to  focus  their  thought  upon  the  formation  of  a 
Union  party,  with  principles  that  all  Union  men 
could  support.  This  idea  was  afterwards  carried  out 
by  the  evolution  of  political  growth  that  the  changes 
this   year   brought    about.      The    Breckenridge    wing 


called  a  stale  convention  fur  June  iith,  the  Repub- 
licans for  Juno  isih,  and  the  I >,in^];i s  Democrats  for 
July  4ili,  and  politics  began  to  absorb  public  atten- 
tion. 

Legislature  Worst  on  Record. 

The  Legislature  remained  in  session  until  May 
20th,  when  it  adjourned  sine  die  and  was,  as  usual, 
considered  the  worst  on  record.  The  m-wspa  pel  s 
were  nearly  unanimous  in  demanding  that  the  Legis 
lal  ure    should    meet     bin  nnuull  v.    instead    of    annually, 

and   thereby   lessen   the   mischief  done   by   one-half, 

<  >ne  of  the  leading  journals  commented  upon  the 
Senate  as  being  a  body  of  men  incapable  of  |i;ms 
a. -ling  Sobei  business  and  as  passing  most  of  its  time 
in  wrangling  over  political  disputes  or  bitter  con 
troversies  over  frivolous  points  of  order.  The  As 
senilil  v  had  dwindled  to  an  attendance  that  was 
often  less  than  a  quorum,  and  had  little  to  do  other 
than  to  meet  and  adjourn,  awaiting  the  Senate's 
Betting   a    day   for   adjourning   sine   die. 

A  resolution  to  recognize  the  so  called  Southern 
'  Confederacy  was  voted  down,  there  being  but  ten 
votes  for  it,  which  showed  the  strength  of  the  Seces 
si  on  movement  to  be  but  a  little  over  ten  per 
cent.  A  Union  resolution  was  passed  by  the  Senate 
with  only  five  votes  against  it,  which  showed  the 
Union  sentiment  predominating  there. 

An  apportionment  bill  was  passed,  basing  a  sena- 
tor on  12,250  and  an  assemblyman  on  5,660  of  the 
citizen  population.  The  representatives  of  the  min- 
ing counties  were  very  much  dissatisfied  with  it, 
claiming  that  "cow"  counties  had  been  given  too 
much  consideration. 

The  Legislature  was  in  session  133  days  and  passed 
538  acts,  not  one  in  twenty  of  which  were  of  any 
general  importance.  The  consensus  of  newspaper 
opinion  was,  ''that  the  statutes  of  1861  would  be 
a  monument  of  special  and  illogical  legislation;  a 
beacon  and  a  warning  for  Legislatures  to  come. ' ' 
In  view  of  the  fact  that  the  session  was  held  during 
the  period  when  the  Nation  was  passing  through  the 
greatest  political  crisis  it  had  known;  that  sectional 
hate  developed  and  grew  with  astonishing  rapidity, 
and  that  personal  future  political  ambitions  were 
being  harassed  and  destroyed,  it  is  not  surprising 
that  the  effect  of  these  conditions  should  be  mani- 
fested in  the  wTork  done  by  this  Legislature. 

Legislative  Wrangle  Results  in  Duel. 
Chas.  W.  Pierey,  the  Assemblyman  from  San  Ber 
nardino  County,  and  D.  Showalter,  the  Assemblyman 
from  Mariposa  Count}',  had  a  wordy  altercation  on 
May  17th,  which  was  the  outgrowth  of  strained  per- 
sonal relations  developed  during  the  session.  On 
the  adjournment  of  the  Legislature,  Pierey  chal- 
lenged Showalter  to  fight  a  duel  and  the  challenge 
being  accepted,  arrangements  were  made  in  Sacra- 
mento for  a  meeting  in  Marin  County  on  May  25th. 
Pierey  and  his  friends  left  San  Francisco  in  a 
Whitehall  boat  on  May  24th  and  went  to  San 
Quentin  to  remain  until  the  next  morning,  while 
Showalter  and  his  friends  went  to  San  Rafael  to 
await  the  hour  of  meeting,  which  was  11  a.  m..  May 
25th,  at  a  place  located  eight  miles  from  San  Kafael. 
The  weapons  to  be  used  were  rifles,  each  party  to 
select  his  own;  the  distance  was  forty  yards;  rifles 
were  to  be  held  at  horizontal  or  oblique  position 
until  brought  to  sight  at  the  word,  ' '  fire!  "  On 
arrival  at  the  dueling  plae,  Showalter  was  arrested 
by  Sheriff  Dow  of  Marin  County  and  taken  before 
County  Judge  Frink  at  San  Kafael.  and  after  a 
short  hearing  was  released  and  immediately  departed 
for  Fairfax's  farm,  where  he  met  Pierey  and  his 
friends  and  it  was  arranged  to  fight  a  short  distance 
from  the  Fairfax  home.  Pierey 's  seconds  were  Sena- 
tor H.  P.  Watkins  of  Yuba  and  Samuel  Smith, 
Indian  war  bond  commissioner;  Showalter 's  seconds 
were  Thomas  Hayes  and  Assemblyman  Thomas  Las 
pyre  of  San  Joaquin  County.  Dr.  Hammond  of  San 
Francisco  and  Dr.  W.  H.  Bruner  were  the  sur- 
geons in  charge.  Friends  of  both  the  principals 
endeavored,  without  success,  to  effect  an  amicable 
settlement  of  the  dispute,  and  after  Showalter  had 
won  the  choice  of  position  the  combatants  faced 
each  other  and  Colonel  Hayes  gave  the  word  to  fire. 
Both  Titles  were  discharged  almost  simultaneously 
and  both  bullets  missed.  Showalter  being  the  chal- 
lenged party,  demanded  another  shot.  ' '  Load  the 
weapons  again,''  he  said,  and  in  a  few  minutes  they 
were  facing  each  other  ready  for  the  word.  Again 
Colonel  Hayes  pronounced  the  word  "fire!"  and 
both  rifles  were  discharged  as  with  a  single  report. 
Pierey  gave  a  start,  threw  his  head  back  and  fell 
to  the  ground.  The  ball  had  entered  his  mouth  and 
passed  into  his  head.  He  died  in  a  few  minutes. 
Showalter.  unhurt,  was  visibly  affected  with  the  end 
and  after  passing  an  eulogy  on  the  courage  of  his 
antagonist,  departed.  Pierey  was  interred  in  San 
Francisco.

A    Russian    miner    called    '  '  <  >ld    Jack/1    working    in 

Mad  Canyon,  near  Fores!  Hill,  found  a  lump  oi 
gold  weighing  seventeen  ounces  and  worth    1*300 

.lames  Nichols  and  Wm.  Mills,  drifting  undei  a 
Btreel  in  the  town  of  San  Andreas  on  May  4th, 
found  a  gra  \  el  bed  from  which  two  pans  of  dirt 
3  ielded  $242. 

Chili  Gulch,  Calaveras  County,   was  the   3cene  oi 

great    mining   activity.      Over    L00    tunnels    owned 

as  many  differenl  companies  were  being  work< 
were  paying  an  average  of  $20  a  day  to  the  man. 

A    miner    named    Quick,    mining    on    '  'herry    Creel

two  pounds. 

Greasertown,  on  the  Calavera  Etr  <.  bad  a  popu 
la t ion  of  200  Chinamen  mining  the  river  bai 
that  vicinity  and  about  twenty-five  white  men. 
They  came  in  conflict  with  each  other  on  May  loth, 
over  the  control  of  a  dam,  the  white  miners  fight 
ing  to  maintain  it  and  the  Chinamen  to  destroy  it. 
The  battle  lasted  over  an  hour  and  was  fought 
with  rocks,  Clubs  and  shovels.  About  a  SCO  re  of 
Chinamen  were  disabled,  Some  being  seriously  hurt, 
and  after  being  driven  off  they  had  the  white  men 
arrested   for  battery. 

A  sulphur  mine  was  being  opened  up  at  San 
Buenaventura. 

Lift  Machine  Causes  Amusement. 

Spring  racing  meetings  were  held  during  the 
month  at,  Tehama,  Red  Bluff,  Oroville  ami  Sacra 
mento,  so  that  lovers  of  the  turf  had  a  continuous 
show  going  on   during  the  entire   month. 

A  man  was  traveling  through  the  central  pari 
of  the  State  with  a  lifting  machine,  a  device  that 
recorded  the  weight  a  man  could  lift  with  his  arm. 
back  and  legs  placed  in  a  certain  position.  To  a 
San  Andreas  newspaper  man  he  stated  that  the 
strongest  man  yet  found  lived  in  Stockton  and 
could  lift  over  1000  pounds.  The  best  average  lot 
of  lifters  were  in  Amador  City,  where  seven  of 
them   raised  900   pounds  and  one  a    thousand.      The 

best  lifter  in  San  Andreas  could   raise   870   [ ads. 

In  Jackson,  there  were  three  men  who  could  lift 
900  pounds,  but  Mokelumne  Hill  could  produce  no 
lifters,  as  they   were  all   too   lazy   to   try. 

A  Mexican  named  Librado  and  an  Indian 
Tiburcio  had  an  encounter  with  a  grizzly  near  San 
A  atonio,    Monterey    <  lounty.        Hot  h      were     terribly 
mangled,      Tiburcio      dying      from    his    in  juries    and 
Li  In  ado  being  crippled   for   life. 

Encouraging  Viticulture. 

The  following  commissioners  on  the  growth, 
culture  and  improvement  of  t  lie  grapevine  in  Cal- 
ifornia were  appointed:  I.  J.  Warner  of  Los  Ange 
les,  J.  M.  Ramirez  of  Marysville  and  A.  Harasthy 
of  Sonoma.  The  planting  of  vineyards  in  the  foot 
hills  of  the  Sierra  Nevada  range  was  being  extens- 
ively engaged  in.  One  party  in  Amador  Count}  had 
500  vines  grown  from  raisin  seed-  Four  thousand 
grape  cuttings  from  Switzerland  had  been  received 
at  Knights  Landing  and  were  to  be  set.  out  in  Yolo 
County. 

There  was  quite  a  slump  in  the  mutton  market 
and  sheep  were  selling  in  San  Bernardino  <  lounty 
at  $1  a  head. 

The  San  Francisco  Alta  mentioned  what  was  then 
considered  a  remarkable  feat  in  telegraphing.  A 
dispatch  containing  8500  words  was  sent  by  George 
Senf — afterward  better  known  by  the  cognomen  of 
*  *  <  Jraphy,  bestowed  upon  him  when  manager  of 
the  Virginia  City  telegraph  office— and  received  by 
John  Leach  in  the  then  remarkable  time  of  si v- 
1 1 ours  and  twenty  minutes,  ,,]•  at  t he  average  rate 
of  twenty  live  words  a  minute.  The  Alta  stated: 
"The  dispatch  was  received  entirely  by  the  sense 
of  sound — that  is,  hearing  tin'  click  of  the  tnstru 
ment.  It  takes  years  to  acquire  this  art  of  receiv- 
ing messages  by  sound."' 

The  roadhouse  hotel  of  A,  .1 .  Bayle^  near  Pilot 
Hill,  in  El  Dorado  County,  was  burned  by  an  in 
cendiary  on   May   L6th.     The  loss   was  estimated  at 

-Jo. 

On  May  27th  a  lug  fire  occurred  mi  Commercial 
street,  San  Francisco,  when  property  of  the  value 
of  $100,000  was  destroyed. 

At  Alviso,  Santa  Clara  County,  on  May  24th,  was 
seen  the  highest  tide  on  record  up  to  that  time — 
seventeen   feet , 

On  May  5th  two  hundred  hod  carriers  and  -and 
shovelers  struck  for  more  pay  and  paraded  the 
Streets   of    San    Francisco.

Celtelbmfogdl  im  Cfer  @ff  MWrisi: 


EREMIAH  G.  NEWELL  AND  HIS 
wife  were  tendered  a  reception  by 
their  children  at  the  Woman's  Club 
House,  940  .South  Figueroa  street, 
Los  Angeles,  April  17th,  in  honor 
of  the  fiftieth  anniversary  of  their 
marriage.  The  couple  were  married 
a  half-century  ago  in  an  adobe  house 
then  situated  in  what  is  now  the 
center  of  a  large  business  district, 
and  have  resided  continuously  in 
txie  southland,  where  their  three 
children — John  T.  Newell,  W.  D.  Newell  and  Mrs. 
L.  M.  McPeek — were  born  and  reside  with  their 
families.  Four  generations  were  present  on  the 
occasion  of  the  golden  wedding  anniversary,  repre- 
sented in  Mrs.  Jeremiah  G.  Newell,  the  bride  her- 
self; Mrs.  L.  M.  McPeek,  daughter  of  Mrs.  Newell; 
Mrs.  Richard  Harrison,  daughter  of  Mrs.  McPeek, 
and  the  little  son  of  Mrs.  Harrison. 

The  evening's  ceremonies  were  held  in  the  club- 
house ball-room,  the  stage  of  which  was  attractively 
decorated  in  ferns  and  golden-hued  blossoms,  from 
the  center  of  which  was  suspended,  by  golden- 
colored  satin  ribbons,  an  immense  wedding  bell. 
There  was  a  large  attendance  af  invited  guests, 
made  up  largely  of  members  of  the  Pioneer  Society, 
with  which  the  groom  is  affiliated,  and  members 
of  the  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West  and 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West — the  couple 's 
daughter  being  a  member  of  the  former,  and  their 
sons  of  the  latter  organization.  Many  handsome 
presents  were   received  by  the   honored  couple. 

To  the  strains  of  Mendelssohn's  "Wedding 
March"  played  by  an  orchestra,  and  led  by  Lillian 
Newell,  a  granddaughter,  as  ringbearer,  the  bridal 
party  marched  to  the  stage,  where  Rev.  Dr.  Conrp- 
ton  invoked  the  blessings  of  God,  and  reunited  the 
happy  couple  in  holy  wedlock.  Mrs.  Martha  Tay- 
lor, a  Pioneer  of  1S49,  who  was  Mrs.  Newell 's 
bridesmaid  at  her  wedding  fifty  years  ago,  at- 
tended her  on  that  occasion,  while  J.  F.  Burns 
acted  as  best  man.  Following  these  ceremonies, 
and  after  congratulations  had  been  showered  upon 
the  happy  pair,  a  grand  march  was  formed  in 
which  all  present  joined,  and  led  by  Jeremiah 
Newell  and  his  bride,  marched  around  the  room  and 
each  guest  was  presented  with  a  piece  of  wedding 
cake,   baked   by   the  bride   herself. 

Dancing  was  then  indulged  in  until  midnight,  the 
Virginia  reel  being  one  of  the  numbers  and  was 
participated  in  by  the  Pioneers.  Refreshments  were 
served  throughout  the  evening  in  the  banquet- 
room,  while  punch  was  dispensed  in  the  ballroom. 
One  of  the  delightful  features  of  the  evening 
preceded  the  wedding  ceremonies,  when  John  T. 
Newell,  a  son  the  principals  in  the  approaching 
festivities,  announced  that  Miss  Anna  Dempsey, 
Grand  Trustee,  N.  D.  G.  W.,  would  read  a  synopsis 
of  the  lives  of  the  Pioneer  bridal  pair,  compiled 
from  data  furnished  by  the  aged  couple  themselves. 
Dealing,  as  it  does,  with  the  lives  of  two  of  Cali- 
fornia's early  residents — upon  whose  shoulders  the 
weight  of  years  has  borne  lightly  and  who  are  as 
happy  to-day  as  they  were  when  they  stood  at  the 
altar  fifty  years  ago  to  pledge  their  troth — Miss 
Dempsey 's  paper  is  here  set  forth  in  full: 

Martha  Anderson  Newell. 

Ladies  and  Gentlemen:  We  have  assembled  to- 
night to  commemorate  the  fiftieth  anniversary  of 
two  of  our  most  loyal  and  honored  citizens,  a  man 
and  woman  who,  as  Pioneers  of  California,  braved 
the  hardships  of  the  ox-teams  and  the  perils  of 
the  plains,  and  by  their  courage  and  indomitable 
will  helped  to  pave  the  way  for  us  and  made  it 
possible  for  us  to  live  here  in  comfort  and  happi- 
ness, in  this  land  of  prosperity  and  sunshine.  As 
a  native-born  Californian,  I  am  proud  and  happy 
to  speak  of  them  as  "Pioneers  of  California,"  and 
to  say  that  the  world  owes  a  depth  of  gratitude  to 
the  Pioneers  of  California  that  can  never  be  repaid 
in  words.  It  is  to  men  and  women  of  their  strength 
and  convictions  to  whom  we  owe  our  great  Com- 
monwealth. This  man  and  woman  unconsciously 
made  history  for  California,  as,  just  as  un- 
consciously, fate  wove  a  romance  for  them.  And 
now,  I  shall  give  a  brief  outline  of  that  romance 
and  history: 

Martha  Anderson  Newell  was  born  October  26, 
1845,  in  the  little  town  of  New  Albany,  Indiana. 
Thus  our  bride  of  tonight  is  in  her  sixty-sixth  year. 
At  an  early  age  she  crossed  the  plains  with  her 
parents,  who  settled  in  Salt  Lake  City.  There  dire 
misfortune  visited  her,  for  her  beloved  mother  and 
infant  sister  became  ill  of  pneumonia  and  passed 
away  after  a  few  days'  illness.  She  remained  in 
Salt  Lake  city  three  years.     In  the  meantime,  her 


father  had  wisely  and  happily  remarried.  His 
second  wife  proved  to  be  a  woman  who  then,  and 
in  the  years  that  followed,  gave  her  heart's  best 
to  the  little  motherless  girl.  At  the  end  of  three 
years  the  parents  resumed  their  journey  to  Cali- 
fornia, for  which  point  her  father  had  originally 
started.  In  all  their  long  trip  across  the  plains 
the  little  party  had  never  been  molested,  although 
they  traveled  on  in  dread  of  those  terrors  of  the 
plains — the  Indians.  The  dreaded  attack  never 
came,  but  the  fear  was  always  in  their  hearts,  and 
one  evening,  just  before  dusk,  the  men  of  the 
party,  feeling  sure  that  they  were  to  be  attacked 
that  night,  were  cleaning  their  guns  preparatory 
to  defending  themselves  and  their  loved  ones,  when 
one  of  the  guns  was  accidentally  discharged,  the 
buckshot  entering  the  face  of  Mrs.  Anderson,  our 
bride's  stepmother.  This  was  indeed  a  misfortune 
to  contend  witn,  and  brought  great  grief  to  the 
little  party.  It  was  a  serious  accident,  causing  a 
life-long  scar,  in  the  loss  of  one  eye,  to  Mrs.  Ander- 


at  the  small  salary  of  thirty  dollars  per  day.  Hav- 
ing worked  two  days,  he  felt  that  his  means  .would 
enable  him  to  journey  on,  and  subsequently 
went  to  Amador  Creek,  where  he  cleaned  up  $8000. 
In  July  of  1852  he  returned  to  Hlinois,  via  the 
Isthmus.  He  stayed  in  his  old  home  all  that  winter, 
but  the  speel  of  the  West  was  upon  him,  and  he 
left  in  the  early  spring  for  California,  via  the 
Horn.  He  arrived  again  in  California  in  the  year 
1853,  and  went  at  once  to  the  mines,  but  came  to 
Los  Angeles  on  July  11,  1857,  where  he  met  his  fate 
in  the  form  of  Martha  Anderson,  whom  he  married 
April  16,  1861. 

Martha  was  attending  a  little  dancing  party  one 
evening,  and  as  the  homes  were  small,  all  that 
transpired  in  the  yard  could  easily  be  overheard 
in  the  house.  Martha  overheard  the  remark,  re- 
peated a  number  of  times,  "Why  it's  Jerry,"  "It's 
Jerry. ' '  Wondering,  she  waited  to  ascertain  who 
the  popular  Jerry  might  be,  but  upon  being  pre- 
sented did  not  for  a  moment  think  that  she  was 
meeting  her  future  husband.  Jerry,  to  this  day, 
declares  that  he  first  saw  a  tall,  slim,  young  miss, 
with  a  long  straight  pig-tail  down  her  back  and 
wearing  extremely  abbreviated  skirts.  Martha,  of 
course,  denies  the  pig-tail  and  the  abbreviations, 
and  declares  that  she  wore  long  skirts  and  was  really 
dignified.     It  is  not  for  me  to  decide,  but  pig-tail

JEREMIAH  G.  NEWELL 


son.  To  add  to  the  confusion  there,  high  in  the 
Sieras,  a  little  daughter  was  born  that  night.  In 
contrast  to  our  luxurious,  comfortable  ambulance 
of  the  present  day,  it  may  be  interesting  to  state 
that  the  invalid  was  tenderly  laid  on  a  mattress 
and  placed  in  one  of  the  rude  wagons  and  the  little 
party  hurried  down  the  rock-clad  mountain  side, 
over  many  niil'es,  to  San  Bernardino,  that  she  may 
have  a  physician's  care.  It  may  also  be  interesting 
to  know  that,  over  many  miles  of  the  way  the 
mattress,  with  the  invalid,  was  lifted  by  tender 
hands  and  carried  over  the  huge  boulders  that 
blocked  the  way.  The  woman  who  endured  this 
hardship  and  suffering  is  to-day  living  in  Los  An- 
geles, having  attained  the  age  of  83  years.  From 
San  Bernardino  the  party  journeyed  on  to  Los  An- 
geles, arriving  there  in  the  year  1853,  and  took  up 
their  residence  on  the  corner  of  First  and  Spring 
streets.  About  one  year  later  they  moved  to  a  more 
pretentions  adobe  residence  on  the  corner  of 
Second  and  Main  streets,  where  our  bride  was 
married  April  16,  1861 — fifty  years  ago.  Their 
residence  was  similar  to  the  Spanish  adobes  of  that 
day,  but  distinguished  from  the  others  as  being 
the  only  adobe  in  the  pueblo  having  a  shake  roof. 
Jeremiah  Newell. 
Jeremiah  Newell  was  born  April  22,  1830,  in 
Montreal,  Canada,  during  a  visit  of  his  parents  to 
that  city.  Thus  our  groom  of  tonight  is  in  his 
eighty-first  year.  When  about  fifteen  days  old,  his 
parents  returned  to  their  home  in  Bristol,  Addison 
County,  Vermont,  and  when  five  years  old  the 
parents  moved  to  Waukegan,  Hlinois.  They  resided 
there  until  he  became  a  young  man.  and  on  April  1, 
1S50,  he  left  with  a  party  for  California.  The  trip, 
while  subjected  to  the  dangers  of  the  age,  proved 
uneventful.  The  caravan  started  with  sixty  wagons 
and  arrived  in  California  with  six.  Many  of  the 
party  became  discouragea  and  turned  back,  while 
others  could  not  keep  up  the  pace,  but  came  on 
later.  Mr.  ^Jewell's  party  arrived  at  Horeshoe 
Bend,  California,  July  17,  1850,  the  year  that  Cali- 
fornia was  admitted  to  the  Union.  He  celebrated 
California's  first  Admission  Day  in  the  little  town 
of  Georgetown,  El  Dorado  County,  one  of  the  gold 
centers  at  that  time.  From  Georgetown  he  went 
to  Sacramento,  and  there,  as  a  means  of  reimburse- 
ment,  he   accepted   a   position   in   a   printing   office 


or  not,  the  first  impression  was  evidently  so  good 
that  its  imprint  has  lasted  fifty  years. 

In  conclusion,  let  me  say:  May  we  of  the  newer 
generation  take  a  lesson  from  these  two  loyal  old 
people  who,  by  an  exemplification  of  the  simple 
life,  have  taught  us  that  being  true  to  each  other 
is  being  true  to  ourselves;  and  being  true  to  our- 
selves is  being  true  to  our  God,  our  home,  and  our 
country.  And  may  we  go  forth  from  these  four 
walls  tonight  better  men  and  better  women  for  hav- 
ing been  privileged  to  know  this  man  and  woman 
who,  after  fifty  years  of  wedded  life,  may  still  say: 
"Two  souls  with  but  a  single  thought, 
Two  hearts  that  beat  as  one."

GEOUND  BEEAKXNTG  CELEBEATION. 

With  a  special  gold  pen  provided  for  the  occasion, 
Governor  Hiram  Johnson  has  signed  the  bill  passed 
by  the  recent  Legislature,  appropriating  $250,000 
for  the  San  Diego-Panama-California  Exposition  to 
be  held  in  San  Diego  m  1915. 

San  Diego  is  going  ahead  with  arrangements  for 
the  big  fair,  and  on  July  12th  of  this  year  a  big 
celebration  will  be  held  in  the  southern  city  on 
the  occasion  of  the  oreaking  of  ground  preparatory 
to  laying  out  the  exposition  site.  Work  on  the 
buildings  and  grounds  will  be  steadily  pushed  for- 
ward thereafter. 


Elect  that  man  to  office  who  has  the  courage  to 
be  decent  and  honest  when  nobody  is  looking.

( 'nine   Deejers  all  and  round  ine  stand, 
Lift  up  your  eyes  and  view  the  land. 
How  much  is  ours?     How  can  we  stay 
This   giving   of   our   land   awayf 

^T  IS  NOW  A  YEAR  SINCE  WE 
had  our  library  bonfire  and  gave  ex- 
pression to  our  feelings  against  let- 
ting ugly  books  stand  in  our  Sunday- 
JSChool  and  other  libraries  to  blur  the 
*Jjp  minds     of     innocent     children     and 

grown -ups.  Have  we  anything  to 
show  as  a  result  of  this  effort  of 
ours  to  establish  an  Ark-adian  library 
for  the  children?  Let  us  see:  This 
is  not  our  own  land  of  California, 
where  we  were  born.  Have  we  some 
rights  here,  or  have  we  not?  To  my  way  of  think- 
ing, it  is  we  who  should  be  having  the  say  as  to 
what  is  being  done  in  this  State  of  ours!  If  we 
CTNITED  for  the  mutual  benefit  of  the  homes  of 
California,  tin-  same  as  the  men  whose  proud  boast 
it  is,  "We  belong  to  the  Winegrowers'  Protective 
Association,"  we  could  do  wonders  for  the  chil- 
dren,  and   also    for   the   State. 

The  Ark-adian  Brothers  and  Sisters  of  Califor- 
nia are  for  the  homes  first,  last,  and  all  the  time. 
We  bave  learned  in  this  year  to  agree  with  each 
other  and  establish  a  relationship  from  home  to 
home,  irrespective  of  nationality  of  parents,  or  of 
politics,  or  of  religion.  We  have  based  ourselves  on 
the  idea  of  being  "UNITED  STATES"— each  one 
is  a  state  whicn  must  unite  with  every  other  state 
for  the  sake  of  the  home.  We  call  ourselves  "Ark- 
adian"  because  that  word  stands  for  being  "OLD- 
FASHIONED,"  and  that  is  what  we  are.  We  have 
revived  the  good  old  books  that  children  care  for 
universally.  The  tiny  girls  who  are  learning  to 
read  at  school  find  themselves  enjoying  ' '  Mother 
Goose, ' '  with  many  other  editions  equally  old. 
A  moment  ago  I  was  called  to  the  door  by  one  of 
our  Deejers  who  wanted  help  on  writing  down  our 
"Little  drops  of  water,  little  grains  of  sand,  make 
the  mighty  ocean  and  the  beauteous  land.''  Then 
she  wanted  the  next  verse,  which  had  to  be  gotten 
from  the  depths  of  someone's  memory,  before  we 
could  teach  it.  Absently,  I  began,  ' '  When  the 
glorious  sun  has  set,  when  the  grass  with  dew  is 
wi'i,  then  you  show  your  little  light. ' '  But  the 
Deejer  knew  better. 

"Why,  Aunt  Ella,  I'm  thurprithed  at  you. 
Thath's  'Twinkle,  Twinkle'!" 

"So  it  is,"  I  replied,  much  mortified  at  my 
ignorance.  "Little  words  of  kindness,  little  deeds 
of  love,  make  this  world  an  Eden  like  the  heaven 
above. ' ' 

"Yeth,  thath's  right,"  she  said  approvingly,  and 
began   to  print  it  into  her  blank  book. 

We  have  rediscovered  Aesop,  and  all  of  Grim 's 
t  im\  tales,  and  lately  Thackeray's  "The  Rose  and 
the  Wing,"  but  I  had  to  read  the  last  aloud  to 
them  first,  before  they  could  appreciate  the  fun 
underlying  the  story.  Now  it  is  a  prime  favorite. 
' '  Little  Lady  Jane ' '  of  New  Orleans,  containing 
the  statue  of  Mother  Margaret,  was  given  us  by 
Mr,  Phelan  or  we  would  not  have  had  it  at  all.  Yet 
that  one  book  has  made  a  material  improvement  in 
the  manners  of  our  girls  already.  The  character 
has  become  a  shining  example  to  them,  and  they 
are  always  talking  about  her  as  if  she  were  per- 
sonally known  to  us.  We  have  had  our  riots  and 
our  revolutions,  but  after  all  is  said  and  done,  it 
is  lovely  to  realize  that  FRIENDSHIP  still  remains, 
and  that  these  children  will  see  to  it  that  the 
statue  to  the  Pioneer  Mother  will  be  erected,  if 
I  do  not  live  to  see  it  done  myself. 


and  end.     I   said   i  o 
What    is   the   use   of 

pulling   up   a    statue    to    1  lie    'Pioneer    Mother'    unless 

I  teach  the  children  what  she  Btanda  Port*1  And 
1  bave  faithfully  re  discovered  and  fished  up  from 
everywhere  the  good  old  things  she  (aught  me,  for 
these  children  of  my   neighborhood.     It    is  a   splen 

did   education   in   itself.     And   the    P iei    Mother 

also    taught    me   "  Cit  izenship.  Her    idea    of   "Gil 

izenship"  was  honor—  1o  be  faithful,  to  lie  loyal, 
was   the   chief   end   of   man   and    woman.      Thai    i 

where  I   find  a  lack   in   the  public   scl 1   teaching; 

that    is   where    1    hud   a    lack    in   the   Sunday-school 

teaching.      Even    the    .Sunday  school    libra a    have 

had  taken  away  from  them  many  books  everj  year. 
I  unit  into  a  Sunday-school  a  few  weeks  ago  and 
sat  behind  a  boy  who  had  refused  to  bring  hark  a 
book  we  had  loaned  him.  1  told  his  class  about  it, 
and  shamed  him  so  that  he  ran  after  me  before  I 
reached  home  and  handed  me  back  our  "Little 
Snowdrop."  But  what  sort  of  a  feeling  is  it  in  a 
boy  that  makes  him  "immune"  to  the  training  of 
common  sense?  It  is  this  lack  of  understanding 
about  honor  being  common  sense  that  is  going  to 
lose  us  this  land  of  ours  eventually.  It  ought  to  be 
insisted  on;  it  ought  to  be  hammered  into  the 
brains  of  the  young  as  if  with  a  red  hot   iron. 

The  grown-ups  ought  not  to  encourage  "burglar- 
ized" literature — the  stories  of  thieves,  of  hold-up 
men,  of  thugs,  of  scamps  and  villains.  The  grown- 
ups ought  not  to  make  a  joke  of  crime  and  low 
down n ess  generally.  The  press  ought  uoi  to  laud 
every  girl  that  steals  as  being  a  great  beauty,  just 
to  sell  a  few  copies  of  their  papers.  Every  girl,  or 
woman,  or  boy,  or  man  who  takes  what  does  not  be- 
long to  her  or  him  has  an  affliction'  of  some  kind. 
The  brain  has  gone  wrong  somehow.  They  are  to 
be  pitied,  but  it  is  not  safe  to  have  them  around.  ■ 
This  thing  of  being  a.t  the  mercy  of  big  thieves,  or 
petty  thieves,  is  monstrous.  Every  book  that  dwells 
on  this  subject  only  blurs  the  mind  of  the  reader. 
and  causes  a  sort  of  hypnotic  suggestion  to  go  and 
do  likewise.  We  are  what  the  children  call  ''pars- 
nips erimineps"  when  we  let  such  a  book  go  from 
our  hand  to  another.  It  ought  to  have  kerosene 
poured  over  it  and  then  a  match  held  to  its  pages 
until  it  curls  up  into  smoke.  That  is  what  we  should 
do  with  ugly  books  of  all  sorts.  Don't  leave  them 
to  be  a  temptation  to  feeble  minds. 

But  it  would  seem  that  a  gigantic  trust  has  its 
devil-fish  arms  reaching  out  over  this  land  of  ours. 
It  loves  burglars,  and  thieves,  and  purse-snatchers,. 
and  hold-up  men  and  wants  to  create  sympathy  for' 
them.  Nobody  cares  for  the  innocent  any  more — 
it  is  the  guilty  that  they  make  the  center  of  attrac- 
tion. In  Germany  the  Emperor  has  forbidden  the 
bed-room  play,  and  the  murdering  of  Indians  by 
cowboys  in  the  motion  pictures,  in  order  to  save  his 
people  from  dwelling  on  ugly  things.  But  here,  lit- 
tle girls  go  alone  to  moving-picture  shows  and  are 
talked  to  by  ugly  men  who  sit  near  them,  who  are 
worse  than  the  wolf  in  the  tale  of  "Red  Hiding- 
hood."  We  are  letting  the  evil-minded  run  this 
country  of  ours  by  means  of  this  fatal  stupidity  on 
the  part  of  the  parents  and  grown-ups  who  seem  to 
be   making  a   joke   of   honor   and   integrity. 

What  then?  Shall  we  give  up  and  let  them  have 
their  way?  No,  this  is  our  native  State  and  we 
ought  to  rise  up  against  this  low  influence  perme- 
ating our  social  existence.  Everybody  knows  that 
the  aliens  from  Asia  are  but  slowly  waiting  to 
pour  in  upon  us  hundreds  of  millions  of  their  in- 
habitants to  occupy  this  beautiful  land  and  take  it 
for  their  own.  They  will  not  need  warships,  nor 
cannon,  nor  gunpowder,  nor  generalship.  They  will 
slowly  creep  in  over  the  border  from  Mexico  or  from 
Canada  to  this  golden  kingdom;  slowly  they  will 
till  the  soil  until  it  is  their  own.  and  propagate  their 
kind  and  overrun  us  until  we  become  as  lost  and 
scattered  in  their  midst  as  if  the  white  ants  had 
swept  over  the  territory.  It  will  be  our  own  weak 
ness  that  will  be  the  contributory  negligence  aid 
ing  them  in  the  great  conquest.  The  Aztecs  did  the 
same  to  Mexico.  But  they  were  a  small  band.  Here 
we  have  a  whole  continent  coming  to  swallow  us  up. 
Nothing  but  integrity  and  honor  amongst  ourselves 
can   save  us. 

We  have  been  compelled,  because  of  expediency, 
to  permit  our  little  girls  to  associate  with  Japanese 
men  in  our  public  schools.  But  think  not  that  the 
children  approve  of  this.  The  racial  instinct  im- 
planted by  a  wise  Providence  to  keep  the  quality  of 
white,  white,  and  yellow,  yellow,  still  maintains. 
The  other  evening  one  of  our  boys  brought  in  a  tiny 
Japanese  flag  that  had  been  brought  home,  unthink- 
ingly, from  a  tea  and  reception  where  the  flags 
were  made  the  favors.  It  had  been  spat  upon  on 
the  street  by  a  boy  not  belonging  to  us,  then  it  was 


thrown  down  and  walked  on  b\   boys  and  girls,  Mum 
taken   up  ami   torn    into   pieces  and  finally  burnt

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


May,    1911 


O  WORK  UNDERTAKEN  EY  THE 
Orders  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden 
West  and  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West  has  met  with  such 
general  satisfaction  as  that  in  be- 
half of  the  homeless  child  and  the 
childless  home  of  our  State.  This 
labor  of  love  is  systematically 
carried  on  through  what  is  known 
as  the  Homeless  Children 's  Agency, 
of  which  Emma  Witte  Lillie  is  the 
secretary  and  agent,  and  which 
maintains  permanent  offices  in  room  855  of  the 
Phelan  building,  San  Francisco,  where  anyone 
interested  in  the  work  is  welcome  to  look  over 
the  records  of  the  committee  and  see  what  a  grand 
work  is  being  done  in  behalf  of  the  future  men 
and  women  of  California  who,  through  misfortunes 
of  various  kinds,  are  thrown  upon  their  own  re- 
sources at  a  tender  age.  The  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters,  realizing  the  necessity  for  doing 
something  to  aid  in  properly  training  and  educat- 
ing these  forsaken  children,  if  they  are  to  be- 
come good  citizens  of  our  State,  planned  the  Chil- 
dren's Agency,  which  has  for  its  sole  purpose  the 
finding  of  suitable  homes  for  these  unfortunates, 
and  the  keeping  of  a  watchful  eye  upon  their  ex- 
istence until  they  attain  years  of  manhood  and 
womanhood. 

Funds  to  carry  on  the  work  of  the  Agency  are 
supplied  by  the  various  Parlors  in  both  Orders, 
from  entertainments  under  direction  of  the  Parlors, 
but  which  have  been  liberally  patronized  by  the 
general  public,  because  they  endorse  the  cause  and 
wish  to  aid  in  carrying  on  the  work.  During  the 
past  twelve  months  $2500  has  been   added   to   the

fortunates  arrives  in  a  place  that  is  to  henceforth 
be  its  abiding  place,  these  committees  look  after 
its  welfare,  visit  the  home  where  the  little  one  has 
been  placed  each  month,  and  report  to  the  Agency. 
If  it  is  found  that  the  child  is  not  being  properly 
cared  for  and  being  made  more  of  a  servant  than 
a  member  of  the  family,  or  its  education  neglected, 
the  child  is  immediately  removed.  A  ease  of  this 
kind  recently  occurred  where  a  colored  family  re- 
ceived a  little  homeless  colored  girl.  The  local 
committee  reported  to  the  Agency  that  the  man 
and  wife  had  become  unfit  custodians  of  the  child, 
and  the  secretary  immediately  went  to  the  place 
and  removed  the  girl.  Thus  the  Agency  sees  to  it 
that  no  unfortunate  child  is  mistreated  or  placed 
in  families  where  the  surroundings  are  to  its  detri- 
ment   rather   than    advantage. 

Secretary  Lillie,  in  speaking  of  the  work  of  the 
Agency,  saiu  it  was  remarkable  how  many  bright 
and  beautiful  children  were  to  be  found  in  the 
orphan  and  foundling  asylums  of  the  State,  wait- 
ing to  make  happy  the  childless  homes  from  one 
end  of  California  to  the  other.  She  showed  the 
writer  letters  from  all  over  the  State,  in  which  fond 
mothers  and  fathers  told  of  the  love  they  felt  for

APPEECIATION. 

The   California   mountains, — 

Supremely    fine   they   rise, — 
Like  ramparts  on  the  borders 

That  touch  the  bending  skies; 
They  curb  th'  assailing  ocean, 

Their  snow-white  summits  gleam, 
And  down  each  fruited  valley 

They  loose  a  silver  stream. 


Aren't  these  bright  and  pretty  children?  They  have  been  placed  in  good  homes  through  the  Children's  Agency.    There  are  others  waiting  to  be  taken  into  your 

home.     Can't  you  aid  this  commendable  work? 


fund  by  the  several  Parlors,  the  largest  individual 
contribution  being  received  from  General  Winn 
Parlor,  No.  32,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  at  Antioch,  which 
cleared  $228.28  at  an  entertainment  recently  held, 
and  forwarded  it  to  the  Agency. 

As  an  instance  of  what  the  Agency  is  accom- 
plishing, it  should  be  known  that  since  last  August, 
thirty-five  children  have  been  taken  from  public 
charity  institutions  and  placed  in  good  homes 
throughout  the  State,  where  they  will  be  well  edu- 
cated and  have  the  advantages  of  a  mother's  and 
father's  protecting  care.  The  Agency  in  the  same 
time  received  applications  for  ninety  children,  and 
is  filling  them   as  occasion   warrants. 

There  is  no  doubt  that  every  homeless  child  in 
California  could  be  placed  in  various  families,  but 
whether  or  not  it  would  be  to  the  best  advantage 
"of  the  child,  is  the  question  that  receives  the 
closest  attention  of  the  Agency.  In  order  to  posi- 
tively assure  the  future  welfare  of  the  child,  the 
Agency  has  adopted  an  application  blank  which 
those  desiring  children  must  file  with  it.  The  repu- 
tation of  the  applicant  and  the  surroundings  of 
the  intended  home  are  then  thoroughly  investigated, 
and  if  all  conditions  are  found  favorable,  the  secre- 
tary endeavors  to  find  a  child  that  will  be  in  all 
ways  acceptable  to  the  applicant.  The  Agency 
makes  no  distinction  in  race,  creed  or  color  in  its 
work,  but  sees  to  it  that  the  homeless  child  is 
placed  in  a  home  that  represents  the  same  race, 
creed  and  color  under  which  the  child  came  into 
this  world. 

And  the  Agency's  watchfulness  does  not  end  when 
the  secretary  delivers  her  charge  to  the  newly- 
found  parents.  Every  Parlor  of  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  has  a  Homeless  Children's  com- 
mittee,   and    the    moment    one    of    these    little    un- 


the  little  ones  that  she  had  brought  to  them.  Many 
of  these  children  have  gone  into  families  of  wealth, 
and  all  of  them  have  been  placed  where  the  sur- 
roundings are  ideal,  and  where  they  will  be  well 
educated  and  protected  from  the  vicissitudes  of 
a  busy  and  treacherous  world. 

The  Children's  Agency  now  has  the  following 
children  for  placement,  and  will  be  glad  to  receive 
applications  for  the  same:

What  if  thy  life  were  passing 

On   some  far-stretching  plain, 
To   know  but  lost  horizons, 

The  brooding  of  the   rain — 
No  tree-fringed  heights  uplifted, 

No   purple    mountain    crest 
Where    stands   the    day-god   glorious 

Before  he  sinks  to   rest! 

No  place  where  Morn  could  tarry 

Behind  the   valleys  blue, 
No  place  where  showers  dally 

Their  freshness  to   renew; 
No  walls  to  hold  the  sky  up 

From  th'   sultry  summer  day 
To   let   the   breezes   wander, 

And  smoke  clouds  drift  away. 

From  birth  to  death  to  linger 

And  ne'er  a  green  hill  see! 
Just  flatness,  stretching,  stretching, 

In  vast  monotony, — 
No   white  peaks   everlasting 

Where   foaming  waters  fall; — 
Why,  that  would  seem  a  reason 

One  should  not  live  at  all. 

But,   O.   in   California, 

If  glad'ning   scenes  you   seek, 
You  '11   pass   to   exultation 

On  some  clear  mountain  peak; 
The  lilies   shed   their   radiance, 

The  poppies  glow  with  light, 
The  lark  exulting  ever,  „ 

Rings  carols  of  delight.

CALIFORNIA'S  MANUFACTUIRHNG 
AND  FUTURE  DEVELOPMENT 


T  THE  POTJETBENI  B  ANNUAL 
meel  bag  of  the  » lount  ies  I  ommii  tee 
of  the  California  Development 
Board,  held  in  Oakland,  January 
6th,  Frederick  J.  Koster,  represent

■W  and     Development  "     in     <  'alifornia, 

Jst  "",,i,'1>     is    Illl!    l,r"    interesting    mailer 

that  should  be  thoroughly  digested 
by  all  those  interested  in  aiding 
those  manufacturing  concerns  now  established  with 
in  Hit-  State,  and  encouraging  the  establishment  of 
others   that    will    utilize   our    various   raw    products: 

"James  Bryce,  in  as  address  to  the  students  of 
Stanford  University,  said:  ' '  lalifornia  to-day 
occupies  a  unique  position.  Because  of  its  advant- 
ages and  resources,  it  is  destined  to  be  the  future 
Chosen  home  of  a  great  people.'  The  truth  of  this 
statement  is  manifest  to  every  student  of  the  con- 
ditions governing  human  progress.  We  might  begin 
by  asking  ourselves  the  question  every  mortal  lias 
at  some  t  ime  in  his  career  asked  of  himself: 
'Wherefor  all  this  striving?'  The  instinct  of 
progress  is  part  of  every  normal  individual,  and 
it  becomes  the  spirit  of  every  well-ordered  com- 
munity. With  it  goes  the  desire  to  benefit  the  race. 
Enlightened  selfishness  brings  the  realization  that 
our  own  advantage  accrues  only  in  proportion  as 
we  render  service  and  confer  benefits.  And  this  in 
turn  leads  to  a  striving  toward  making  for  the 
benefit  of  all  the  wisest  use  of  Nature's  gifts. 
This  seems  to  me  is  the  fundamental  principle  that 
underlies    all    organization    development    work. 

"We  who  occupy  this  area  known  as  the  State 
of  California  are  not  calling  upon  our  imagination 
when  we  claim  to  be  endowed  by  Nature  more 
munificently  than  any  other  people.  A  recital  of 
the  cold  facts  of  California's  advantages  makes  up 
an  almost  thrilling  tale.  And  so  we  are  con 
fronted  with  the  problem.  How  shall  we  contribute 
toward  accomplishing  the  wisest  use  of  this  splen- 
did  heritage!  It  might  be  considered  almost 
axiomatic  that  there  is  the  greatest  measure  of 
prosperity  where  to  the  fullest  extent  are  utilized 
the  natural  resources  of  a  region,  and,  as  a  corollary, 
must  occur  the  development  there  of  a  highly  in- 
telligent  community.      And   this   embodies   our   aim. 

"The  word  'resources'  here  implies  more  than 
the  mere  tangible  things  placed  at  man's  hand. 
It  includes  those  none  the  less  important — if  less 
tangible — influences  that  move  the  man  toward 
yielding  the  highest  product  of  his  talents.  Cali- 
fornia is  ideal  for  the  development  of  a  well 
balanced  population — one  that  is  made  up  of  those 
engaged  in  a  remarkable  diversity  of  pursuits,  and 
most  of  them  on  a  scale  of  sufficient  magnitude  to 
warrant  their  being  conducted  along  the  most  highly 
scientific  lines.  In  some  of  these  pursuits  Califor- 
nia already  takes  a  leading  position. 

"There  is  really  nothing  that  Nature  has  omitted 
here  for  the  use  and  welfare  of  man — from  the 
tremendous  potential  energy  stored  in  our  Sierran 
snows  to  that  other  great  potentiality,  the  invigor- 
ating climate  that  stimulates  to  action  every  day 
in  the  year.  This  is  by  no  means  paramount  ly  the 
land  of  dolce  far  niente.  unless  it  be  that  in  the  joy 
we  find  in  our  labors,  we  feel  that  we  are  exerting 
ourselves  not  at  all,  and  so  construe  the  spirit  of 
this  land;  for  here,  I  take  it,  stronger  than  any- 
where is  the  urge  to  do  and  to  give  the  best  that 
is  in  you. 

"Manufacturing  has  received  comparatively  lit 
tie  attention  as  an  important  phase  in  the  develop- 
ment of  California.  We  have  been  very  busy  tell- 
ing the  world  of  our  natural  advantages  of  climate, 
mineral  wealth,  and  soil  fertility.  We  have  been 
working  to  cut  up  our  large  land  holdings  and  make 
room  for  the  small  farmer,  encouraging  more  in- 
tensive cultivation,  and  our  cities  and  towns  have 
more  or  less  grown  of  themselves.  Manufacturing 
has  crept  in  gradually.  We  are  developing  new, 
and  our  old  into  larger,  industries,  until  in  the 
aggregate  the  product  of  the  shops  and  factories 
of  California  forms  no  insignificant  proportion  of 
her  yield  of  wealth.  It  is,  however,  far  from  what 
all  natural  tendencies  here  indicate  that  it 
could  and  should  be.  There  is  in  California 
still  too  strong  a  sentiment  in  favor  of  ar 
tides  frought  from  afar.  This  seems  a 
phase  of  human  nature  not  peculiar  to  Cal 
ifomians  alone — that  the  distant  thing  is  most 
attractive;  but  I  take  it  that  with  referem  ti 
the  favoring  of  outside  products.  California's  his- 
tory accounts  readily  for  that  sentiment  being 
especially    strong    within    her    borders. 


''Briefly   tracing   California's   industrial    de 

.    we    pass    from    the    lime   of    the    padres    an  I 

t  lie  old    Spaniards,    the  rattle    raising   and    li;  ding    in 

hides,  to  the  influx  of  the  gold-seekers  and  with 
t  hem  i  he  Bp  p  of  1  owns,  bi  i  ngi  ng  i  he  t  rad 

ing  element.  Follow  ing  upon  the  mining  cani'j  great 
agricultural  and  then  horticultural  and  othei  devel 
opinenl  of  soil  productivity;  and  San  Franciso, 
naturally     situated     to     be     a     leading     industrial 

city,       developed       into       a       great       jobbing       center. 

Her  struggle  has  been  until  very  recently 
bo  ma !  atain  her  supremacy  as  such.  <  >ur 
basic  population  was  of  such  habit  of  t  hough t 
that  manufacturing  was  not  stimulated  and  en- 
couraged, and  to-day  there  exists  in  California  still 
an  exceptionally  Strang  tendency  to  place  a  higher 
estimate  upon  the  things  that  are  brought  from 
alar  than  upon   those  produced  at    home. 

"We  are  in  a  measure  still  an  isolated  emu 
munitVj  and  this  is  one  of  the  problems  we  have 
before  US— to  increase  the  home  market  for  our 
manufactures.  There  a  re  but  few  Lines  of  manu- 
facture in  California  but  that  must  in  the  main  de- 
pend upon  that  market,  and  it  especially  behooves 
Californians  to  arouse  a  sentiment  favorable  to  the 
pro  lucts  of  her  own  manufactories.  Incidentally 
1  may  state  that  there  is  now  under  way  a  strong 
movement,  inaugurated  by  an  organization  known 
as  the  Home  Indusi iv  League  of  * 'alifornia,  ably 
directed  and  already  highly  successful,  looking  to 
the  encouragement  of  home  industry.  It  has 
awakened  the  people  of  San  Francisco  and  is  stir- 
ring up  other  communities  within  the  State  in  favor 
of  l  ins  sentiment.  It  dues  not  confine  itself  to 
any  locality,  but  aims  to  cover  the  entire  State 
of  *  'alifornia.  It  lias  enlisted  the  active  support 
of  prominent  societies,  clubs  and  other  organ iza- 
tions  in  sympathy  with  the  movement,  and  has 
already  accomplished  much  toward  increasing  the 
use    of    (alifornia    produced    goods    and    materials. 

"Generally  speaking,  conditions  have  been 
against  the  manufacturers  of  California;  their 
market,  covering  an  immense  territorial  area,  com- 
paratively sparsely  populated — not  sufficient  to 
justify  extensive  advertising;  on  the  other  hand, 
reached  just  as  directly  by  the  larger  Eastern  manu- 
facturersJ  advertising  matter  aimed  to  cover  a  dis- 
tributive  territory  embracing  California,  but  as  an 
incident.  That  manufacturing  under  these  adverse 
conditions  has  reached  its  present  position  appeals 
to  me  but  as  an  earnest  of  what  may  be  expected 
in  that  branch  of  our  productive  life  in  the  years 
to  come.  The  census  reports  show  remarkable 
gains  in  population  made  by  the  Pacific  Coast 
and  we  can  through  effective  co-operation 
keep  this  tide  in  ever-increasing  volume  tinned  in 
our  direction.  Then  gradually  will  fall  away  those 
obstacles  that  have  been  in  the  path  of  manufac- 
turing development.

"Given   our  incomparable  and  unlimited    aa 

resources,  developed  to  a  high  state  oJ 
ciency,     climatic     conditions     most     favorable     for 
human  life  and  employment,   every   day  a    w< 
day    with   possibility    of    out-door    recreation,    it    is 
reasonable  to  assume  that  a  condition  of  prosperity 
is    possible    here    superior    to    that    attainable    else- 
where.     It    is   reasonable    to    believe    that    tin'    ■ 
ings    of    the    workers    sin  mid    be    greater    qo 
covering   the  year,   but    per   day.    per    hour   of   actual 
labor,  and  that  they  be  yet  able  to  live   bel    :r  and 
at  lower  cost  than  elsewhere.     It   is  not  in   m 
mation  so  much  the  question  of  the  wages  we  pay, 
so  long  as  they  be  kept  within   reasonable  bounds, 
as   of   the   efficiency    of   our    operations   and    of    the 
workers  engaged  therein.

as  the  years  have  been  since  this  land  of  ours  was 
almost  an  unknown  wilderness.  Speaking  of  the

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


May,    1911 


Conducted  by  Clarence  M.  Hunt,  Managing  Editor 


>dD  <■■><]  E>C 


©UR  BIRTHDAY  j 

With  this  issue  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  be- 
gins the  ninth  volume,  or  fifth  year,  of  its  exist- 
ence. Like  all  other  publications,  this  magazine 
has  had  its  trials  and  tribulations,  but  has  so  far 
been  able  to  overcome  the  many  obstacles  encoun- 
tered, and  is  today  carrying  out  the  purposes  for 
which  it  was  brought  into  being,  despite  the  fact 
that  its  opponents  have  done  all  in  their  power  to 
discourage  and.  as  far  as  it  lay  in  their  means, 
prevent  its  continued  publication. 

For  its  success,  The  Grizzly  Bear  takes  not  to 
itself  or  its  managers  any  great  measure  of  credit, 
but  is  overjoj'ed  to  give  all  praise  for  what  success 
has  been  attained  to  the  thousands  of  loyal  Califor- 
nians — members  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden 
West  and  of  the  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West,  and  others,— who  have,  through  their  moral 
and  financial  support,  made  that  success  possible 
and  made  the  publication  of  the  magazine  a  pleas- 
ure to  its  sponsors. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  does  not  claim  per- 
fection in  any  of  the  details  that  go  to  make  up 
its  publication.  It  does  claim,  however,  that  its 
columns  have  oeen  used,  without  fear  or  favor,  for 
the  advocacy  of  those  things  which  it  believed  to 
be  right  and  for  the  best  interests  of  its  constitu- 
ents and  the  State  of  California.  It  has-  not 
preached  one  doctrine  and  practiced  another,  but 
has  consistently  battled  against  those  policies 
which  are  antagonistic  to  the  welfare  and  greatness 
of  California,  and  battled  for  those  ideals  which 
assure  the  State's  continued  progress  and  moral 
uplift.  Necessarily  The  Grizzly  Bear,  in  such  a 
course,  has  earned  the  enmity  of  some  who,  while 
secretly  advocating  the  policies  it  has  battled  for, 
are  unwilling  to  openly  advocate  the  same,  and 
have  unsuccessfully  endeavored,  from  purely  self- 
ish motives,  to  have  the  magazine  discredited.  Of 
such  enmity,  The  Grizzly  Bear  is  proud,  believing 
that  it  is  honored  in  having  the  ill-will  of  those  who 
have  not   the   courage   of   their   convictions. 

As  the  official  organ  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the 
Golden  West  and  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West,  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  has  at  all  times 
fearlessly  battled  for  the  REAL  principles  which 
those  Orders  advocate,  and  has  given  free  pub- 
licity to  the  great  work  being  carried  on  by  both 
organizations  in  behalf  of  all  things  Californian. 
Just  as  one  instance  of  what  good  this  magazine 
has  accomplished  for  the  State  Orders,  it  can  be 
said  without  fear  of  contradiction  that  never  in 
the  course  of  their  many  years  of  existence  have 
the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  received  so 
much  newspaper  publicity — and  that  of  a  favorable 
nature,  too, — as  during  the  four  years  that  The 
Grizzly  Bear  has  been  in  existence.  This  publicity 
has  been  of  inestimable  value,  inasmuch  as  it  has 
enabled  every  citizen  of  California  to  know  exact- 
ly why  the  Orders  were  originated,  and  what  they 
are  doing  xor  this  State. 

The  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters,  like  all 
other  large  organizations,  have  within  their  ranks 
a  very  small  percentage  of  that  class  of  citizens 
who  are  imbued  with  the  spirit  of  pulling  down, 
rather  than  the  spirit  of  building  up;  a  class  of  cit- 
izens who,  never  accomplishing,  or  even  attempt- 
ing to  accomplish,  anything  for  the  good  of  the 
majority,  devote  their  time  and  talents  in  an  ef- 
fort to  charge  ulterior  motives  to  all  things  which 
will  not  work  for  the  accomplishment  of  their  own 
selfish  purposes.  Such  members  have  attempted  to 
wreck  every  praiseworthy  movement  inaugurated 
by  the  Orders,  and  they  have  made  no  exception 
of   The    Grizzly  Bear, 

These  Orders,  however,  are  made  up  largely  of 
right-thinking  men  and  women,  who  are  deeply  con- 
cerned with  the  moral  and  commerical  progress  of 
every  section  of  their  native  State,  and  have  cham- 
pioned and  financially  aided  all  movements,  whether 
inaugurated  within  their  own  ranks  or  not,  tending 
to  the  betterment  of  conditions  in  California.  It  is 
to  this  class  of  members  that  The  Grizzly  Bear  owes 
its  inception  and  progress,  and  their  united  support 
in  future,  as  it  has  been  given  in  the  past,  foretells 
the  onward  march  of  this  publication. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  appreciates  the  assistance  of 
the  loyal  men  and  women  who  have  stood  back  of 
it — even  against  the  onslaught  of  powerful  outside 


Ijr'.nfluences — and  acknowledges  a  debt  of  gratitude 
yljthat  can  only  be  repaid  in  so  conducting  the  future 
ip  course  of  the  publication  that  it  will  cast  no  dis- 
credit upon  them,  or  the  Orders  it  represents.  This 
course  will  necessarily  lead  us  into  situations  beset 
with  many  dangers,  but  with  the  advice  and  assist- 
ance of  those  who  believe  in  and  encourage  it,  The 
Grizzly  Bear  feels  confident  that  no  confidence  re- 
posed in  it  will  be  misplaced. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  owes  allegiance  to  no  man  or 
set  of  men;  it  is  not  concerned  in  the  work  of  any 
organization  outsiue  the  Orders  of  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West;  it  is  inter- 
ested in  the  progress  of  every  section  of  the  great 
State  of  California  without  prejudice  to  any  one 
particular  section;  it  reveres  the  Pioneer  Mothers 
and  leathers,  and  aims  to  preserve  to  future  genera- 
tions their  history;  it  believes  in  the  California- 
products-for-California-residents  policy;  it  advocates 
the  making  oi  this  State  into  a  haven  for  the  white 
race,  and  not  the  dumping  ground  of  the  Asiatics; 
it  contends  for  the  maintenance  of  California  under 
one  state  government.  In  short,  The  Grizzly  Bear 
stands  for  all  things  Californian,  and  has  chosen 
for  its  field  of  labor  ALL  California.  With  the  con- 
tinued assistance  of  every  loyal  Californian,  it 
hopes  to  do  its  full  share  in  bringing  about  such 
conditions  within  this  Commonwealth  as  will  make 
California  an  even  greater,  grander  and  more  pow- 
erful State  than  it  is  to-day.

RAKER  TO  THE  RESCUE 

-  In    Congressman   John   F.    Raker,    it   appears   the 
people  of  California  are  going  to  have  a  representa- 
tive in  the  national  law-making  body  who  will  see 
that  our  interests,  moral  as  well  as  commercial,  are 
carefully  looked  after.     Mr.  Raker,  on  April  14th, 
introduced  in  the  House  of  Representatives  the  fol- 
lowing resolution,  the  intent  of  which  is  perfectly 
clear  to  all  those  who  are  not  in  favor  of  "Japan- 
izing"  California,  even  to  prevent  war  or  in  obedi- 
ence to  the  threats  of  the  national  "big  stick": 
Resolved,   That   the   President   be   and   is 
hereby  requested  to  transmit  to  the  House 
of    Representatives,    copies    of    all    corre- 
spondence on  file  with   him  and  in  his  of- 
fice, together  with  all    conespondence    on 
file  with  the  Secretary  o±  War  and  the  Sec- 
retary of  State,  in  relation  to  the  immigra- 
tion of  Japanese  to  the   United  States,  the 
Islands   of   Hawaii,    Guam   and   the   Philip- 
pines, and  in  relation  to  the  Japanese  en- 
tering Canada  and  Mexico  and  then  enter- 
ing  the   United  States  from    Canada    and 
Mexico,  and  all  correspondence  between  the 
President  and  the  authorities  of  the  -State 
of   California   and   the    city   of   San    Fran- 
cisco on  the  subject  of  Japanese  immigra- 
tion and  the  residence  and  rights  in  Califor- 
nia, had  within  the  last  five  years. 

And  to  inform  the  said  House  of  Repre- 
sentatives what  proceedings  have  been  had 
and  are  now  being  taken  by  the  President 
and  the  executive  departments  to  restrict 
and  prevent  the  further  immigration  of 
Japanese  and  coolie  laborers  in  the  United 
States  and  the  Islands  of  Hawaii,  Guam 
and  the  Philippines,  if  not  incompatible 
with  the  public  service. 
In  speaking  of  his  resolution,  Congressman  Raker 
is  quoted  in  the  daily  press  as  saying; 

It  is  time  that  the  people  of  California 
knew  about  these  matters.  Twice  or  three 
times  measures  relating  to  the  interests  of 
California  and  pending  in  the  California 
Legislature  have  been  kept  in  abeyance  at 
the  request  of  the  National  Government. 
The  reasons  actuating  the  Government  have 
never  been  disclosed,  and  the  people  of  Cal- 
ifirnia  have  had  no  opportunity  to  pass 
judgment  upon  the  reasonableness  of  Fed- 
eral interference  with  the  State  Govern- 
ment. I  believe  our  people  have  the  right 
to  know  and  my  resolution  is  designed  to 
bring  out  all  the  facts. 
Congressman  Raker  is  perfectly  justified  in  his 
position  and  will  have  the  support  of  a  great  ma- 
jority  of   the   people   of   California.      The   last   two 


Legislatures  of  this  State  utterly  failed,  through 
national  interference,  to  take  any  steps  to  curb  the 
growing  Japanese  evil  in  the  State,  although  it 
was  apparent  that  the  members  thereof  plainly  saw 
the  necessity  for  action.  It  is  to  be  hoped  that  Mr. 
Raker  will  not  become  afflicted  with  "bigstickitis," 
as  were  our  own  legislators,  but  that  he  will  stand 
steadfastly  for  what  is  right,  even  though  it 
be  against  the  wishes  of  national  political  big-guns 
and  the  Japanese  Government. 

California  needs  protection  from  Japanese  in- 
vasion; its  schoolgirls  need  protection  from  the  evil 
of  Japanese  men  attending  the  public  schools  as 
daily  associates  of  those  girls;  its  fertile  soil  must 
be  saved  to  the  white  race  and  not  ■  distributed 
among  the  Japanese.  Every  person  in  California 
knows  the  absolute  need  of  such  protection  imme- 
diately. Even  our  legislators  knew  that  action  was 
necessary,  but  in  their  mind's  eye  they  saw  the 
"big  stick"  waving  from  the  dome  of  the  National 
Capitol  and  deserted  their  State's  welfare  as  rats 
desert  a   sinking  ship. 

The  recent  treaty  entered  into  between  Japan 
and  the  United  States,  whereby  California  is  left  at 
the  mercy  of  Japan,  is  an  insult  to  the  intelligence 
of  the  people  of  California,  and  a  disgrace  to  those 
of  our  representatives  in  the  National  Congress  who, 
without  one  word  of  protest,  permitted  the  treaty 
to  be  approved.  Are  our  Congressmen  and  Senators 
sent  to  Washington  to  look  after  California's  inter- 
ests, or  simply  to  aid  in  furthering  the  schemes  of 
politicians  and  the  big  interests?  Just  a  glance  at 
this  recent  treaty,  and  a  perusal  of  the  vote  on  its 
adoption,  clearly  shows  where  they  have  stood. 

California  has  some  new  representatives  in  Wash- 
ington now,  and  if  we  are  to  judge  their  future 
course  by  what  Congressman  Raker  has  early  in 
his  career  attempted,  we  can  look  forward  to  hav- 
ing California's  interests  subserved  at  all  times, 
and   at   all    odds. 

Here  's  success  and  more  power  to  John  W.  Raker 
and  all  others  of  his  kind.  May  he  succeed  in  ac- 
complishing what  California's  Legislatures  have 
been  afraid  to  attempt  to  accomplish — save  Cali- 
fornia from  the  growing  Japanese  evil.  But  even 
should  he  fail  in  nis  commendable  purpose,  may  he 
at  least  be  the  means  of  bringing  to  the  public  light 
the  "whys"  and  "whos"  that  have  been  hiding 
in  the  Japanese  political  woodpile.  We  predict  that 
such  information,  if  made  public,  will  make  ex- 
tremely interesting  reading  for  the  people  of  Cali- 
fornia— or  at  least  for  that  great  majority  of  the 
people  who  have  not  for  selfish  and  political  reasons 
aided  and  abetted  the  Japanese  cause  and  who  have 
not  been  terrorized  by  the  "big  stick."

John  Brown,  a  member  of  the  San  Bernardino 
Pioneer  Society,  in  a  letter  to  Hydraulic  Parlor,  N. 
S.  G.  W.,  of  Nevada  City,  takes  exception  to  a 
recent  debate  in  the  Parlor  on  the  question  as  to 
who  first  discovered  gold  iu  California,  being  de- 
cided in  favor  of  James  W.  Marshall.  He  states 
that  gold  was  first  discovered  in  Los  Angeles  Coun- 
ty in  1842  by  Francisco  Lopez.  While  Mr.  Brown 
is  correct  in  his  statement  that  the  first  recorded 
gold  discovery  was  in  Los  Angeles  County,  he 
perhaps  lost  sight  of  the  fact  that  the  decision 
in  Hydraulic  Parlor  was  rendered  in  favor  of  Mar- 
shall, not  because  the  debaters  did  not  know  of 
the  Lopez  discovery,  but  because  it  was  through 
Marshall 's  discovery  of  gold  six  years  later  that 
the  gold  rush  started.  This  contention  is  amply 
borne  out  by  the  fact  that  the  men  who  arrived  in 
California  previous  to  Marshall 's  discovery  were 
not  drawn  here  through  the  lure  of  gold,  because 
the}'  had  not  heard  of  the  State's  fabulous  gold 
wealth. 

Mr.  Brown  appears  to  believe  that,  the  Los  An- 
geles County  goid  discovery  in  1842  is  not  gener- 
ally known,  and  in  that  he  is  mistaken,  for  The 
Grizzly  Bear  has  often  related  the  story  of  the  S'an 
Francisquito  Canyon  discover}'.  But  this  discovery 
was  insignificant  and  was  not  generally  known  in 
early  days.  Historically  speaking  therefore,  gold 
was  first  discovered  by  Francisco  Lopez  in  Los 
Angeles  County  in  1842;  but  as  to  who  first  dis- 
covered the  gold  that  caused  .the  great  influx  of 
people  to  this  State  in  early  days,  the  credit  un- 
questionably belongs  to  James  W.  Marshall,  whose 
find   was  made   in   1848   at   Coloma.

The  debate  in  question  established  the  lattei  fad 

alone,   as    fai    as    Bydraulic    Parlor   was   concerned, 

for   thai    was   the   real    underlying   question   in    the 

debated    resolution.     The    historical    fact    being   aJ 

read;    established,    and    never    having    been    ques 

tioned,  no  debate  could  affect  its  status,  or  sel  wbal 

had  already   become  an  established  certainty  aside. 

BDhe   only    fault    to   be   found    with   the   debate   in 

question   is   that    the   resolution   which   called    forth 

the  arguments,   in   the   course   of   which   the    Lopez 

discovery  was  mentioned,  was  not  properly   worded.

Number  one,  volume  one  of  the  Chamber  of  Com 
merce  Journal,  issued  bj  the  San  Francisco  Cham 
ber  of  Commerce,  lias  made  iis  appearance,  and  in 
speaking  of  the  worh  of  the  organization,  the  pub 
lication  says: 

This   publication    is   for   the   accomplish- 
ment   of    praetical    good   ami    it   will   be   con- 
ducted  along   lines    in   ronfer   benefits   that 
will   be  appreciated   by  the  general  public 
and   by  our  members  alike,  and   in  all   for- 
eign ami  domestic  commercial   fields  which 
the    daily    press    of    San    Francisco    cannot 
reach   expediently. 
The    Journal    naturally    will    zealously    labor    for 
the   best    interests   of  San    Francisco,    but    promises 
to  use  its  good  efforts  to  place  all  the  interests  of 
California  in  touch  continually  with  all  portions  of 
the   world.      The   Chamber   of   Commerce    having   a 
large    number    of    influential    connections    both    in 
foreign  countries  and  the  United  States,  the  Jour- 
nal can,  and  no  doubt  will  be,  an  important   factor 
in  the  future  development  of  this  State,  and  should 
be  encouraged  and  meet  with  success. 

Among  the  interesting  features  of  the  initial  num- 
ber are  a  list  of  the  Chamber  of  Commerce  emmee

members  and  their  addresses. 


TO  FURTHER  IMPROVE 

HISTORIC  LANDMARK  IN  CITY. 

On  December  19,  1903,  the  Native  Daughters  and 
Native  Sons  of  Los  Angeles  erected  on  Fort  II  ill, 
the  site  of  Fort  Moore,  in  the  heart  of  that  city,  a 
127  foot  flagpole  to  mark  the  historic  spot.  During 
the  past  eight  years  an  American  flag  has  floated 
from  this  mast  on  all  important  occasions,  national 
and  state  holidays.  But  the  members  of  these  Or- 
ders in  the  southern  city  have  now  undertaken  fur- 
ther improvement  of  the  spot — where  the  first  bos 
tile  meeting  between  American  and  Mexican  troops 
during  the  conquest  of  California  occurred,  and 
where  the  last  shot  in  that  controversy  was  fired. 

A  joint  committee  from  the  several  Parlors  ha--  in 
hand  the  raising  of  a  sum  of  money  with  which  to 
erect  around  the  flagpole  a  suitably  engraved  gran- 
ite base,  to  be  surmounted  by  cannon  which  have 
been  collected,  and  which  are  said  to  have  done 
service  on  the  hill.  The  base  will  be  about  five  and 
one-half  feet  high,  and  will  be  the  means  of  hold- 
ing the  flagpole  in  place  through  many  years  to 
come.     Seats  will  also  be  carved  in  the  granite. 

This  historic  spot,  which  played  a  prominent  part 
in  the  Mexican  war,  is  known  as  Fort  Hill,  and  is 
in  the  very  neart  of  Los  Angeles  city.  Less  than 
fifty  American  soldiers  at  one  time  held  at  bay 
here.  300  Mexican  soldiers.  Here  also  the  only  for- 
tifications in  California  during  the  Mexican  war 
were  constructed.  The  fort  was  named  for  Captain 
Benjamin  D.  Moore  of  the  First  United  Starvs 
Dragoons,  but  as  all  danger  of  an  invasion  passed, 
it  was  never  completed,  the  battalion  which  was 
constructing  it  being  mustered  out. 


TOOK  HIM  A  LONG  TIME  TO  REALIZE  IT. 

Representative  Hayes  of  California  has  introduced 
a  bill  in  the  House  at  Washington  extending  the 
provisions  of  the  Chinese  exclusion  act  to  Japanese, 
Koreans  and  other  Asiatics.  The  bill  provides  that 
''all  laws  new  enforced,  prohibiting  ami  regulating 
the  coming  of  Chinese  persons  and  persons  of 
Chinese  descent,  hereby  be  made  to  apply  to  Japan- 
ese, Koreans,  Tartars,  Malays.  Afghans,  Fast 
Indians,  Lascars,  Hindoos  and  others  of  the  Asiatic 
or  Mongolian  race. ' '  Representative  Hayes  de- 
clares the  constant  influx  of  Japanese,  Bundoo  and 
Asiatic  laborers  to  the  Pacific  Coast  is  a  menace  to 
the  standard  of  American  workmen. 


INDOOR  ROSE  FESTIVAL.

will  hold  an  indoor  rose  festival  in  Masonic  Music

plemented by  thousands  of  genuine  roses  from  Stock- 
ton 's  gardens.  The  Stockton  Merchants '  Associa- 
tion has  not  only  indorsed  the  project,  but  will

Fred  H.  Jung  of  San  Francisco,  the  present  Grand 
Secretary,  will  have  opposition,  it  is  said,  in  the 
person  of  R.  D.  Barton  of  Sequoia  Parlor,  Xo.  160. 
San  Francisco.  So  far,  no  one  has  come  forw  ard 
to  oppose  the  re-election  of  John  McDonald  of  San 
Francisco  as  Grand  Treasurer.  For  Grand  Marshal, 
the  position  will  very  likely  be  conceded  to  a  mem- 
ber of  the  local  Parlor  of  the  city  in  which  the 
coming  Admission  Day  celebration  will  be  held. 

Thos.  J.  Curtin  of  San  Francisco,  at  present 
Grand  Outside  Sentinel,  will  no  doubt  be  chosen  the 
Grand  Inside  Sentinel,  as  no  one  appears  to 
the  honor  in  his  stead.  There  are  at  present  tun 
candidates  for  Grand  Outside  Sentinel,  namely  An- 
drew S.  Groth  of  Mission  Parlor,  No.  38,  San  Fran 
cisco,  and  C.  P.  Mosconi  of  Seaside  Parlor,  No.  95, 
Halfmoon   Bay. 

Admission  Day,  and  1912  Grand  Parlor. 

One  of  the  most  hotly  contested  questions  to  be 
decided  at  the  coming  session  is  where  the  1912 
Grand  Parlor  shall  meet.  Three  cities  are  after  Tin- 
session — Fresno,  Oroville  and  Redding — and  each 
promises  to  have  its  claims  for  recognition  fully 
laid  before  the  delegates.  Argonaut  Parlor.  No.  B, 
of  Oroville.  will  have  charge  of  that  city's  cam 
paign,  and  the  delegates  will  be  assisted  by  a  spe- 
cial boosting  committee,  who  will  go  to  Santa  Cruz

THE   RULES   OF    THE   GAME. 

HE  OPENING  CHAPTERS  OF  "THE 
Rules  of  the  Game,"  by  Stewart 
Edward  White,  have  to  do  with  the 
adjustment,  to  a  business  life,  of 
Bob  Orde,  a  young  college  man  whose 
career  while  in  college  was  marked 
especially  by  his  athletic  skill.  His 
father  had  achieved  success  as  a 
lumberman  in  the  logging  camps  of 
Michigan  and  it  is  in  this  same  place 
that  Bob  is  ' '  tried  out ' '  by  his 
father 's  friend  and  partner  in  busi- 
ness. Later,  owing  to  decline  in  lumber  interests 
in  Michigan,  the  scene  of  the  story  is  shifted  to 
California   lumber  regions. 

The  author's  love  for  California  and  his  belief 
in  her  natural  resources  are  made  evident  as  he 
brings  to  this  young  man's  attention  not  only  the 
wonderful  forests,  but  other  phases  of  California's 
wealth  as  well.  The  way  in  which  cattle  kings, 
lumber  compnuies  and  power  companies  once  con- 
trolled the  forest  regions  of  California  is  interest- 
ingly described.  We  have  here  presented  in  a  force- 
ful manner  the  long,  hard  struggle  for  conservation 
of  the  forests.  Excellent  arguments  are  produced 
on  both  sides  and  we  are  made  to  see  that  it  is  not 
an  easy  task  to  right  wrongs  at  once  which,  by 
slow  degrees,  have  assumed  such  magnitudes  as 
graft  has  done  in  all  these  cases.  Out  of  the  many 
experiences  through  which  Bob  Orde  has  passed — 
for  he  has  been  in  close  touch  with  all  the  great 
interests — we  find  that  he  has  learned  the  rules  of 
all  the  games  and  has  played  his  part  so  well  that 
he  assumes  the  control  of  his  father's  lumber 
interests  in  California  and  is  prepared  to  conduct 
this  business  in  such  a  manner  as.  to  convince  the 
world  that  wealth  may  be  acquired  in  lumbering 
even  though  the  plan  of  "Conservation  of  the 
Forests"  may  be  carried  out. 

Bob  Orde  is  the  one  man  in  a  position  to  do 
this  because,  at  one  time,  life  as  a  forest  ranger 
appealed  to  him  so  strongly  that  he  severed  his 
connection  wTith  the  lumber  interests.  He  was  not 
aware  at  that  time  of  his  father's  control  of  them, 
so  he  entered  the  service.  Here  for  a  second  time 
he  was  being  "tried  out"  until  the  opportune  time 
arrived  when  bis  father  should  make  known  his  am- 
bitions for  his  son.  It  is  with  reluctance  at  first 
that  Bob  considers  the  matter,  but  presently  he 
foresees  that  in  no  better  way  can  he  advance  the 
cause   of   conservation. 

There  is  no  doubt  but  that  Mr.  White's  purpose 
in  writing  "The  Rules  of  the  Game"  was  to  bring 
before  the  people  California's  wonderful  forests, 
but  it  is  a  book  which  for  other  reasons  should  fall 
into  the  hands  of  every  young  man  just  out  of 
college  as  well.  It  is  a  most  excellent  delineation 
of  life's  problems  which  must  come  in  one  form 
or  another  to  every  young  man  before  he  has  finally 
fitted  himself  into  the  niche  intended  for  him,  and 
the  way  in  which  the  author  has  his  hero,  Bob 
Orde,  meet  them  is  interesting  to  read  about. 
Stewart  Edward  White  has  given  us  many  most 
excellent  books,  but  the  "Rules  of  the  Game"  has 
not  yet   had  its  equal. 


THE  MEADOW  LARK. 

(By  James  Henry  MacLafferty.) 

Meadow-lark,    sweet    singer    of    the    fields, 

Never  do  I  hear  thy  joyous  song, 
But  in   my   spirit   every   evil  yields, 

And  good  resolves  within  me  are  made  strong. 
Thy  soul  so  brimming  with  tumultuous  ecstasy, 
Hath   welded  doubry  strong   the   bond    'twixt   thee 
and   me. 

Thou  dost  not  choose  the  shaded  leafy  dell 
As  if  thou  hadst  a  message  for  the  few; 

Nor    'twixt  four  walls  as  human  voices  tell 

Thier   praise   to    God   to    those   within    the    pew; 

iiut  limited  alone  by  thy  Creator's  will, 

Thy  song  doth  saturate,  doth  satisfy  and  fill. 

Thy  body  doth  not  lift  thy  song  to  height 
Attained  by  one  akin  to  thee  in     name; 

Nor  can  my  praise   give  unto   thee  aright 
Thy  due,  as  Shelley  gave  the  other  fame, 

But  upward,  ever  upward,  borne  without  thy  wing. 

Thy  song,    'twould  seem,  could  make  the  dome   of 
heaven  ring. 

Perhaps  I  love  thee  more,  thou  feathered  voice, 
Because  thy  body,   earth-bound  like  my  own, 

Must  yet  become  as  mine,  which  hath  no  choice 
But    find    its   place    in    Mother    Earth,    alone. 


And  oh,  my  dearest,  cherished  wish  shall  ever  be, 
M.j  song  may  bless  some  soul,  as  thy  song  blesses  me. 
— From  ( '  My  Soul 's  Cathedral. ' ' 


FLOWERS  FROM  MEDIAEVAL  HISTORY. 

The  above  is  the  title  of  an  artistic  volume  from 
the  pen  of  Minnie  D.  Kellogg.  It  is  a  wonderful 
gift,  when  traveling  in  foreign  lands,  to  be  able 
to  pluck  from  the  world's  gardens  the  choicest 
flowers.  Such  rare  discrimination  is  not  given  to 
everyone,  but  when  the  story  of  the  writer's  life 
is  revealed  one  can  then  the  better  understand  her 
selections.  The  publisher  tells  us  that  the  trips 
among  the  scenes  of  the  storied  past  here  recorded 
were  taken  not  so  much  in  search  of  health  as  in 
search  of  diversion  from  the  sad  employment  of 
watching  the  inexorable  approach  of  mortal  disease, 
and  that  before  the  final  reading  of  the  proof,  this 
well-known  San  Francisco  woman  had  passed  away. 

It  was  in  the  towns  of  France  that  the  author 
viewed  the  beautiful  cathedrals  to  which  she  has 
paid  tribute  by  designating  them  as  flowers.  This 
volume  is  made  most  attractive  by  using  many  re- 
productions from  remarkable  pictures  of  these 
cathedrals.  The  people  of  these  times  gave  ex- 
pression to  their  religious  and  artistic  natures 
through  the  architecture  of  their  cathedrals;  the 
good  and  the  beautiful  as  they  conceived  it. 

Any  lover  of  art,  whether  intending  to  remain 
at  home  or  to  travel  among  the  cathedral  towns 
of  France,  will  real  with  much  pleasure  this  little 
book,  for  here  the  builders  of  the  Middle  Ages  have 


We  ean't  expect  everybody  to  turn,  right 
in  and  sacrifice  themselves  to  be  philan- 
thropists because  the  spirit  of  the  age  tells 
them  they  ought  to  be.  We've  got  to  make 
it  so  easy  to  do  things  right  that  anybody  at 
all  decent  will  be  ashamed  not  to.  Then  we've 
got  to  wait  for  the  spirit  of  the  people  to 
grow  to  new  things.  It's  coming,  but  it's 
not  here  yet. — Stewart  Edward  White,  in 
"The   Rules  pf  the   Game." 


their  works  brought  impressively  to  our  minds.  The 
quaint  bits  of  mediaeval  legends  are  particularly 
interesting,  while  the  essays  on  the  French  Gothic, 
as  a  whole,  are  based  upon  evidence  and  authority. 
Those  which  appeal  most  strongly  to  the  reader 
are:  "Flowers  of  History  from  the  Romantic  Thir- 
teenth Century,"  "Mystics  as  Builders,"  "The 
Golden  Madonna  of  Rheims, "  and  "The  Romantic 
Twentieth   Century." 


IN  BLOSSOM  TIME. 

(Jby  Ina  Coolbrith.) 
It 's_,  O,  my  heart,  my  heart, 

To  be  out  in  the  sun  and  sing — 
To    sing   and    shout   in    the    fields    about, 

In    the    balm    and    blossoming! 

Sing   loud,    O    bird    in    the    tree; 

0,    bird    sing   loud   in    the    sky, 
And  honey  bees,  blacken  the  clover  seas — 

There   is   none   of  you   glad  as   I. 

The    leaves    laugh    low    in    the    wind, 
Laugh   low,   with   the   wind   at   play; 

And  the  odorous  call  of  the  flowers  all 
Entices    my    soul    away! 

For,  O,  but  tne  world  is  fair,  is  fair — 

And   0,    but   the   world   is    sweet! 
I  will  out  in  the  gold  of  the  blossoming  mould, 

And  sit   at  the  Master's  feet. 

And    the    love    my    heart    would    speak, 

I    will    fold    in    the    lily's    rim, 
That  the  lips  of  the  blossom,  more  pure  and  meek, 

May  offer  it  up  to  Him. 

Then  sing  in  the  hedgerow  green,  O,  thrush, 

0,  skylark,  sing  in  the  blue; 
Sing  loud,  sing  clear,  that  the  King  may  hear, 

And  my  soul   shall  sing  with  you! 

— From  "Songs  of  the  Golden  Gate." 

MRS.  GERTRUDE  ATHERTON. 

Someone  recently  asked  a  friend  of  Gertrude 
Atherton 's  where  Mrs.  Atherton's  permanent  home 
was,  and  the  inquiry  was  met  with  the  reply,  "  I  do 
not  know  and  I  doubt  .if  Mrs.  Atherton  herself 
does."  The  autnor  of  "Tower  of  Ivory"  is  an 
inveterate  traveler,  as  a  record  of  her  movements 
this  season  would  indicate.     Last  autumn  she  was 


in  California.  Then  she  went  to  New  York,  left 
shortly  for  the  south,  where  she  spent  a  part  of 
the  winter,  returning  to  New  York  again,  and  she 
is  now  in  England.  Doubtless  she  will  visit  her 
beloved  Munich,  the  scene  of  her  latest  book,  be- 
fore returning  to  America  in  the  fall  to  see  the 
rehearsals  of  the  play  which  she  has  written  for 
Mrs.  Fiske.  Mrs.  Atherton  is  probably  as  much  at- 
home  in  London  and  Munich  as  she  is  in  New  York 
and  San  Francisco,  and  this,  perhaps,  accounts  for 
the  fact  that  she  is  the  true  cosmopolite  among 
American  authors  of  the  present  day. 

AN  AMERICAN  NOVELIST  IN  MEXICO. 
Herman  Whitaker,  author  of  "The  Planter,"  is 
one  of  the  group  of  young  American  writers  who 
gained  their  knowledge  of  Mexican  conditions  at 
first  hand.  He  became  so  enthusiastic  a  supporter 
of  the  cause  for  which  the  insurrectos  have  now 
taken  the  field  that  his  life  was  threatened  more 
than  once.  His  novel,  "The  Planter,"  is  directly 
related  to  the  present  disturbances  in  Mexico,  the 
young  New  England  engineer  of  the  story  espous- 
ing the  cause  of  the  Yaquis.  Their  struggle  to 
escape  the  slavery  of  the  rubber  plantations,  as 
well  as  deportation,  so  fired  the  Yankee  that  his 
enthusiasism  in  "The  Planter"  caused  it  to  be  said 
that  Whitaker  had  written  "The  Uncle  Tom's 
Cabin    of    Mexico." 


BABY  BLUE  EYES. 
(By  Charles  Keeler.) 
Bonny   baby   blue-eyes 

Twinkling  in  the   grass, 
Smiling    on    the    sunny    hills 
To   see  the  children  pass! 

Of    all    the    flowers    of    spring-time 

The    fairest   and   the   frailest! 
There's  gladness  in  your  baby  eyes, — 

The  purest  ana  the  palest! 

— From  "Elfin   Songs  of  Sunland.  " 


BUSINESS  AND  AVOCATION. 
In  the  past  it  has  been  quite  the  proper  thing 
for  authors  to  sigh  rapturously  when  speaking  of 
tneir  literary  endeavors,  declaring  that  their  soul 
is  in  their  work  and  that  nothing  else  counts.  But 
Jack  London,  whose  ability  in  the  book  field  has 
once  again  been  demonstrated  by  the  publication 
of  his  new  work,  "Adventure,"  is  not  given  to 
posing.  He  says  quite  frankly  that  writing  is  his 
business  in  life  and  that  he  has  no  false  sentiment 
regarding  it.  His  avocation  or  real  interest,  he 
further  adds,  is  socialism.

BUMGALO 


(Drawing   and   Description   by   PERCY  A.   EISEN,  of  Eisen  &  Son,  Architects,  Los  Angeles.) 


A  bungalow  designed  to  be  within  everybody's  means,  and  yet  embracing  architectural  designs  to 
.,    clegree   different    from   the  ordinary  cottage,   is   shown   above. 

It  contains  five  rooms,  the  living-room  and  dining-room  being  across  the  front  and  two  bed-rooms  and 
kitchen  at  the  rear;  one  bed-room  projecting  past  the  living-room  so  as  to  give  a  front  window  to  same. 
The   bath-room    is   situated   between    the    two    bed-rooms. 

The  living  room  is  14x18  feet  in  length  and  has  beamed  ceilings,  while  the  bathroom  is  wainscoted 
and    has   an    ornamental    cove   ceiling.      Hardwood  floors  are  laid   in   the   dining-room   and   living-room. 

The  plan  is  complete  as  to  all  cases,  sideboards,    etc.,  so   necessary  to   the   housekeeper.     The   outside 
of  the  bungalow  is  covered   in  split  cedar  shakes,  which   are   left    natural,    while   the    roof   is    covered   in 
white  asbestos   roofing.     The  front   porch  and  steps  are  of  cement. 

All  beams,  pergola  beams  and  trim  work  is  rough  Oregon  pine,  stained  a  dark-browu  color,  thus 
making  a  building  which  does  not  require  painting  excepting  on  the  trim  work,  an  item  of  considerable 
importance  in   the  average  home  which  requires  painting  every  two   or  three  years. 

This    building    costs,'  complete,    $1600,    and    requires  two  months  to  build. 


WORK  PROGRESSING  FAVORABLY 

ON   HANDSOME   SAN    FRANCISCO   HALL. 

As  shown  bv  tlo.1  accompanying  illustration,  work 
on  the  Native  Sons  Hall  in  San  Francisco  is  pro- 
gressing rapidly  and  favorably.  On  April  18th,  at 
winch  time  this  photograph  was  taken,  more  than 
h:ilf  of  the  steel  "oik  of  the  eight  story,  class  "A" 
structure  bad  been  erected,  and  it  is  planned  to 
have  the  building  ready  for  occupancy  by  the  first 
of  tlo-  io'w  year.  It  'will  be  the  finest  fraternal 
building  in  the  State,  and   its  commodious  quarters 


corns  throughout  the  Pacific  Coast  and  other  points. 
The  concrete  for  the  three  magnificent  new  docks 
for  the  U.  S.  transport  service  at  Fort  Mason,  in 
San  Francisco,  is  being  made  of  this  cement,  the 
work  requiring  the  services  of  divers  and  deeply- 
set  caissons.  These  great  docks  will  accommodate 
five  large  army  transports,  and  will  be  connected 
with  the  belt  railroad  by  extensive  trackage.  The 
work  at  Fort  Mason  will  probably  exceed  100,000 
barrels  of  Standard  Portland  Cement  and  may  reach 
double  that  quantity.  The  State  Board  of  Harbor 
Commissioners  found  this  company's  product  most 
excellent  for  the  difficult  work  on  the  new  seawall 
both  north  and  south  of  the  Ferry  building,  on  the 
San  Francisco  water  front,  as  it  "sets"  perfectly 
under  water.  The  U.  S.  Government  is  also  using 
large  quantities  of  this  cement  at  the  Bremerton 
Navy  Yard  on  Puget  Sound,  and  also  in  extensive 
reclamation  work  in  Idaho. 

So  the  Native  Sons  may  rest  assured  that  the 
walls  and  foundations  of  their  splendid  new  home 
on  Mason  street,  between  Post  and  Ceary,  will  be 
solidity  constructed  of  a  thoroughly  proven  Cali- 
fornia product.  A  few  more  shares  of  stock  in  the 
building  association  rem;iin  unsold,  aiol  any  Native 
Son  who  wants  a  safe  and  paying  investment,  should 
purchase  some.  For  particulars,  address  the  secre- 
tary,  Adolph   Eberhart,    183    Carl    street,   San    Fran 


uill  bo  handsomely  furnished  throughout.  The  best 
material  of  ever}  class  is  being  used  in  the  con- 
struction  of   the   edifice. 

An  important  California  product,  Standard  Port- 
hind  Cement,  is  being  used  on  the  building.  This 
Dative  product,  which  is  made  :it  the  Standard 
Port  land  Cement  Company's  ox  tensive  plant  in 
Xapa  Junction,  at  the  head  of  the  Bay,  is  being 
largely  used  by  the  United  States  (.overnment,  the 
State    of    California    and    innumerable    private   con- 


LOS  ANGELES  HALL  ABOUT 

READY   FOR   OCCUPANCY. 

The  new  home  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden 
West  in  Los  Angeles,  owned  by  themselves,  is  re- 
ceiving the  finishing  touches,  and  it  is  expected 
that  all  the  local  Parlors  will  be  meeting  there  by 
the  middle  of  May.  While  not  a  towering  struc- 
ture, the  new  hall  is  well  provided  with  accom- 
modations for  the  Order,  and  is  built  substantially. 
with  the  idea  of  later  adding  other  stories.  The 
two  story  building  makes  an  attractive  architec- 
tural appearance,  and  contains  two  meeting  halls, 
banquet -room  and  club -rooms.  The  furnishings  of 
the  halls  and  club-rooms  will  be  equal  to  any  in 
the  State,  and  the  membership  in  Los  Angeles  pre- 
dicts that,  with  the  formal  opening  of  the  new 
quarters,  there  will  be  a  great  awakening  of  interest 
in  the  Order  in   the  southern   city.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


May,    1911 


ATEU1 


OHN  COKT,  PRESIDENT  OF  THE 
National  Theater  Owners'  Associa- 
tion, has  returned  to  New  York  after 
a  visit  to  the  Pacific  Coast,  and  in 
the  New  York  Review  gives  glow- 
ing accounts  of  theaters  under  his 
control  and  of  the  success  of  inde- 
pendent attractions  in  the  West.  The 
box-office  records  of  COrt's  theaters 
were  broken  by  Marie  Dressier  in 
"Tillie's  Nightmare,"  while  Maxine 
Elliott  in  "The  Chocolate  Soldier" 
nnd  James  T.  Powers  in  "Havana"  were  close 
seconds.  Mr.  Cort  says  that  the  season  just  clos- 
ing has  been  the  most  prosperous  in  Los  Angeles 
and  San  Francisco.  In  August,  he  will  open  in  San 
Francisco  the  Cort  Theater,  formerly  the  American 
Music  Hall,  which  is  promised  will  be  the  most  lux- 
urious and  best  appointed  theater  on  the  coast,  and 
iu  which  only  first-class  attractions  will  be  played. 
In  speaking  of  the  National  Association,  which 
was  organized  to  break  up  the  so-called  theatrical 
trust,  Mr.  Cort  says:  "The  National  Theater 
Owners'  Association  is  constantly  increasing  in 
membership  and  popularity  with  managers  through- 
out the  country.  The  praises  of  the  organization 
are  heard  on  all  sides,  and  its  success  is  greater 
tuan  any  of  its  founders  hoped  for.  Our  member- 
ship now  numbers  6S3  managers,  representing  1,721 
theaters,  in  all  parts  of  the  country.  Since  De- 
cember we  have  gained  119  new  members  and  all 
important  theatrical  circuits  in  the  United  States 
and  Canada  are  now  affiliated  with  the  organiza- 
tion. The  annual  election  of  officers  will  be  lield 
next   August. ' ' 


Great  Actor   Passes  Away. 

Henry  Denman  Thompson,  known  to  all  theater- 
goers through  his  famous  play,  "The  Old  Home- 
stead," in  which  he  appeared  for  many  years  in 
the  leading  role,  died  on  his  country  estate  at  West 
Swanzey,  New  Hampshire,  April  14th.  He  was  born 
in  a  log  cabin  in  the  hamlet  of  Beechwood,  three 
miles  from  Girard,  Pennsylvania,  on  October  15, 
1S33.  Two  years  previous  his  father,  Capt.  Rufus 
Thompson,  had  left  West  Swanzey,  which  in  later 
years  this  boy  of  the  wilderness  was  to  make  a 
household  word  as  the  setting  for  the  "Old  Home- 
stead." When  IS  years  old  he  made  his  first  stage 
appearance  as  a  "supe"  under  Charlotte  Cushman, 
who  was  playing  "Lady  Macbeth"  at  the  Howard 
Aetheneum,  Boston.  Two  years  later,  in  Lowell,  he 
had  his  first  speaking  part  and  following  this  he 
went  about  the  country  playing  Irish  and  negro 
parts. 

At  a  Boston  theater  in  18S6,  the  "Old  Home- 
stead" was  first  produced  and  it  has  had  a  con- 
tinual run  since  that  time.  Until  a  few  years  ago 
Mr.  Thompson  traveled  constantly  with  the  com- 
pany, but  as  the  weight  of  years  bore  more  heavily 
on  him.  he  was  obliged  to  give  up  all  but  the  princi- 
pal cities  to  an  understudy,  and  finally  quit 
altogether.

w RAISIN   DAY"    EVERY  DAY. 

"  Raisin  Day."  is  celebrated  April  29th  each  year, 
and  many  persons  observe  it  by  eating  raisin  bread, 
pie.  cake,  pudding,  etc.,  on  that  day.  That's  com- 
menuatory. 

But  why  eat  raisin  foods  only  on  "Raisin  Day?" 
Raisins  are  not  only  very  uealthful  and  pleasing  to 
the  taste,  but  are  one  of  California's  chief  products. 
Millions  of  dollars  are  invested  in  the  raisin  indus- 
try, and  by  using  the  products  in  our  daily  bills- 
of-fare  we  are  not  only  benefitting  our  health  and 
providing  delicious  food,  but  as  well  are  encourag- 
ing one  of  the  State's  great  industries. 

Eat  raisins  "  Rais.n  Day,"  sure,  but  make  every 
day  a  raisin  day,  and  eat  more  raisins.

=H  HE  CALEFOENIA  STATE  MINING 
Bureau,  through  the  State  Mineral- 
ogist L.  E.  Aubury,  is  making  an 
active  and  effective  campaign  to 
have  the  United  States  Government 
substitute  fuel  oil  for  coal  on  all 
ships  on  the  Pacific  in  the  service 
of  the  Army  and  Navy.  A  strong 
memorial  was  recently  sent  to  the 
Secretary  of  the  Navy,  Hon.  George 
Alexander  von  Meyer,  in  which  the 
claims  of  fuel  oil  for  the  uses  of  the 
Navy,  in  preference  to  coal,  are  urged.  Inciden- 
tally, the  State  Mineralogist  shows  that  the  use  of 
fuel  oil  instead  of  coal,  on  the  Pacific  Ocean  alone, 
in  the  fiscal  year  1910,  would  have  resulted  in  a 
saving  of  $1,027,556.10,  and  there  is  not  counted 
into  this  large  saving  the  less  expense  entailed  in 
the  handling  of  oil  as  compared  with  coal  handling. 
This  memorial  was  endorsed  by  a  very  large  number 
of  producers  of  California  fuel  oil. 

In  the  course  oi  the  memorial,  it  was  set  out  that 
information  has  been  disseminated  through  the 
agency  of  an  address  delivered  some  time  ago  at 
Los  Angeles,  by  Rear  Admiral  Cone,  Chief  of  the 
Bureau  of  Steam  Engineering,  which,  if  reported 
correctly,  indicates  that  the  Navy  Department  "is 
'  designing  ships  that  will  be  particularly  effective 
on  the  Pacific,  because  of  our  large  supply  of  fuel 
oil  on  the  Pacific  Coast;"  also,  still  quoting  from 
Rear  Admiral  Cone's  address  as  reported,  "So  far 
as  can  be  seen  at  the  present  time,  the  United 
States  Navy  of  the  future  will  consume  oil  instead 
of  coal. ' '  That  this  accurately  embodies  the  plans 
and  intentions  of  the  Navy  Department,  and  that 
such  plaus  and  intentions  may  be  brought  to  ac- 
complishment, is  earnestly  desired  in  California, 
and  the  statement  made  by  Rear  Admiral  Cone  has 
strengthened  the  hopes  of  those  interested  in  the 
development   of  the  State's  oil   industry. 

Hon.  J.  M.  Dickinson,  Secretary  of  War,  has  also 
been  appealed  to  in  a  letter  from  the  State  Min- 
eralogist setting  forth  pertinent  facts  concerning 
tue  use  of  fuel  o.i  on  transports  and  ot^er  vessels 
used  by  the  Army.  Preliminary  to  pointing  out 
these  facts,  the  letter  says:  "Favorable  announce- 
ments that  have  been  made  concerning  the  inten- 
tion of  the  Navy  Department  to  provide  for  the 
use  of  oil  as  fuel  in  ships,  in  lieu  of  coal,  lead  me 
to  address  you  in  relation  to  fuel  oil  on  the  vessels 
employed  by  the  Army  as  transports  and  otherwise. 
The  obvious  advantages  of  fuel  oil  have  been  un- 
derstood for  some  time,  and  I  can  hardly  hope  to 
advance  any  argument  in  the  matter  that  is  en- 
tirely new;  "but  some  belated  facts  have  been  called 
to  my  notice  that  seem  to  be  worthy  of  attention 
in  tliis  connection.  I  am  therefore  mentioning  a 
few  of  them,  and  urge  that  eareful  consideration 
may  be  given  to  them,  and  that  favorable  action 
may  be  taken  as  soon  and  as  extensively  as  possi- 
ble, if  the  reasons  adduced  shall  appeal  to  you. 

-  ».e  on  the  Pacific  Coast  keenly  feel  that,  in 
time  of  war,  a  very  great  disadvantage  would  be 
encountered  in  the  movement  of  troops  by  sea,  if 
coal  should  remain  our  only  fuel  for  transports;  for 
coal  would  be  secured  from  foreign  countries  only 
with  difficulty  and  at  a  greatly  enhanced  expense. 
On  the  other  hand,  there  is  a  sufficient  supply  of 
fuel  oil  in  California  to  meet  all  needs  for  a  very 
long  term  of  years.  Such  supply  is  always  avail- 
able for  immediate  use.  Oil  is  an  economical  fuel 
and.  for  various  tactical  reasons,  it  is  extremely 
advantageous  that  it  should  be  adopted." 

Recent  Mining  Decision. 
Mining  Contract. — Plaintiff,  defendant,  and  an- 
other, in  order  to  develop  certain  mines  which  they 
had  acquired  and  conveyed  to  a  corporation,  erect- 
ed a  stamp-mill  and,  when  the  ore  proved  insuffici- 
ent, plaintiff  and  defendant  agreed  that  the  com- 
pany should  work  other  mining  territory  in  the  vi- 
cinity of  the  mill,  and  that  to  enable  it  to  do  so, 
plaintiff  and  defendant  would  advance  money  from 
to  time,  and  that  either  would  pay  to  the 
other  any  sums  necessary  to  equalize  between  them 
the  advances  so  made.  On  December  4th,  plaintiff 
wrote  defendant  stating  that  he  had  advanced  a 
certain  amount  over  that  advanced  by  defendant 
and  requesting  the  latter  to  make  payments  equal- 
izing such  excess,  or  give  notes  therefor,  to  which 
defendant  replied  on  December  4th,  stating  that  he 
was  not  paying  the  company's  debts  without  se- 
curity and  a  plain  understanding  with  the  stock- 
holders,  and    that    he    was    surprised   that    plaintiff 


should  assume  to  advance  money  on  his  account 
without  his  consent,  as  he  was  able  to  do  his  own 
advancing,  and  that  he  did  not  care  to  go  any 
further  with  the  deal  looking  to  the  purchase  of  a 
mine  which  plaintiff  had  stated  in  his  letter,  in 
connection  with  his  request  for  payment  by  defend- 
ant, that  he  was  contemplating  purchasing  for  the 
company,  without  some  thorough  understanding. 
Held,  that  defendant's  letter  was  a  repudiation  of 
any  agreement  made  between  him  and  plaintiff  to 
equalize  the  advances  made  by  them,  and  a  re- 
fusal by  defendant  to  be  bound  thereby  in  the  fu- 
ture.— Randolph  &  Lindsay,  Supreme  Court  of  Cal- 
ifornia, 112  Pacific  300. 


piece  of  gold  at  the  foot  of  French  Hill,  near 
where  the  Del  Orto  residence  now  stands,  that 
weighed  over  $1000.  We  are  told  that  in  1S55  a 
couple  of  Frenchmen  found  a  nugget  that  weighed 
over  ten  pounds  in  the  gulch  near  where  the  old 
Hughes  blacksmith  shop  now  stands  and  we  also 
have  heard  of  numerous  other  finds  ranging  up  in 
the  hundreds. 

The  richest  placer  diggings  in  the  world  were 
in  the  immediate  vicinity  of  this  place,  and  while 
the  placer  ground  is  nearly  all  worked  out,  still 
we  believe  there  is  yet  fortunes  awaiting  the 
quartz  miner. 


Still   On  Fakers'    Trails. 

' '  The  conviction  of  Dr.  C.  Howard  Merritt,  in  Oak- 
land, of  circulating  a  false  prospectus  for  the  pur- 
pose of  selling  worthless  oil  stock,"  so  says  State 
Mineralogist  L.  E.  Aubury,  points  out  distinctly  to 
all  similar  offenders  what  is  liable  to  happen  to 
them.  "The  State  Mining  "Bureau, "  he  says,  "is 
in  a  position  to  investigate  the  facts  relating  to 
persons  making  false  representations  for  the  pur- 
pose of  deluding  people  into  buying  fake  stocks. 
All  the  resources  at  its  command  will  be  devoted  to 
protecting  the  public  in  this  direction.  False  rep- 
resentations in  prospectuses  and  false  statements 
in  circular  letters  stand  on  the  same  footing.  A 
distinct  gain  for  the  public  has  been  accomplished 
by  the  verdict  in  the  Merritt  case.  It  will  stand 
as  a  warning  for  years  and  the  benefit  will  be  per- 
manent while  the  present  law  stands. 

"This  Bureau,"  the  State  Mineralogist  says, 
"stands  ready  to  assist  everything  that  is  legiti- 
mate in  connection  with  the  mineral  industries  of 
this  State.  !No  amount  of  work  will  be  found  to  be 
too  much  in  that  connection.  But  to  permit  fakers 
to  ruin  the  reputation  of  the  State  of  California, 
so  that  investors  will  pass  us  by,  and  so  that  all 
mineral  industries  will  be  hampered  and  unjustly 
retarded,  is  out  of  the  question."  The  law  under 
which  Merritt  has  been  convicted  is  that  of  1878, 
which  was  amended  at  Aubury 's  suggestion  to 
bring    about    effectual    protection    for    investors. 


Capital  Needed  in  Placer  County. 
The  Placer  Herald  of  Auburn  in  a  recent  num- 
ber had  this  to  say  in  reference  to  mining  condi- 
tions in  Placer  County:  Although  the  outlook  is 
not  so  promising  as  it  was  a  year  ago  for  a  general 
revival  of  mining  in  Placer  County,  there  is  rea- 
son to  believe  that  the  output  will  be  larger  than 
last  year.  New  ground  is  being  opened  and  several 
old  quartz  properties  will  be  operated.  Mining  in- 
vestments also  are  heavier  in  the  adjoining  mining 
counties  and  this  county  is  destined  to  receive  its 
share.  The  dredge  mode  of  mining  having  proved 
a  suecess,  companies  will  surely  be  induced  to 
dredge  portions  of  the  Middle  and  North  Forks 
of  the  American  River.  The  exploitations  going 
on  along  the  mother  lode  in  this  county  are  also 
producing  good  results,  and  the  discoveries  thus 
far  made  prove  conclusively  that  the  Placer  County 
portion  of  this  famous  lode  is  just  as  rich  as  those 
in  Amador  and  Mariposa  Counties.  All  that  is 
lacking  is  capital. 


Immense  Gold  Dredger  Launched. 
The  largest  gold  dredger  in  the  world,  costing  a 
quarter  of  a  million  dollars,  has  just  been  launched 
at  Hamraonton,  ten  miles  east  of  Marysville,  on  the 
Yuba  River.  As  soon  as  its  machinery  is  installed, 
it  will  begin  rooting  100  feet  below  the  surface 
of  the  ground  to  bring  up  gold-bearing  gravel  that 
is  known  to  be  there.  This  immense  gold-digger 
can   handle   300,000  cubic  yards   of   earth    monthly

An  Early-day  Scene  in  California  Mines. 


Fortunes   in   Quartz   Mining. 

The  Calaveras  Citizen  of  San  Andreas,  in  its 
issue  of  April  15th,  had  this  to  say  concerning  gold 
mining  in  that  rich  section:  During  the  heavy  rains 
of  last  week  there  were  some  twenty  odd  dollars 
picked  up  on  our  streets  by  different  persons.  Joe 
Gardella  found  over  three  dollars,  one  of  the  pieces 
weighing  over  a  dollar. 

Speaking  of  finding  gold  brings  to  mind  some 
of  the  early  day  experiences.  An  Indian  woman, 
known  as  "Old  Susie."  who  at  one  time  was  Queen 
of   the  Digger   Tribe   in   this   section,  picked   up   a 


with  its  chain  of  buckets.  Its  hull  is  241  feet  long, 
its  stacker  138  feet,  and  its  total  weight  will  be 
1600  tons,  against  an  average  weight  of  750  tons 
for  the  other  gold  dredgers  now  in  use  in  this  State. 
Its  spuds  alone  weigh  28.000  pounds. 

When  it  comes  to  the  pinch,  there  is  something 
to  be  said  for  the  lobster.

of  1 1n-  State  iiMi  m.  ni;iii\  years  ago  sprang  up  a 
small  community.  They  boasted  climate, — they

whal  true  Californian  that  does  not  yield  to  a

"Viewing  the  whole  suit  joe  t  broadly,  we  musi

as  an  absolutely  indispensable  factor  in  the  devel-

cellent oil  fuel,  the  possibilities  of  developing  elec- 
trical energy  insure  adequate  power  for  both  manu- 
facture and  transportion;  that  facilities  for  com-

with  the  co-operation  of  the  various  counties  and

California  Development  Board  is  enabled  to  present 
to  the  world  the  opportunities  that  in  California

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


May,    191 


irftnmis    Fas 


FTER  FOUR  SEASONS  OF  PLAY- 
ing  the  Coast  League  fans  can  begin 
to  get  a  line  on  the  strength  of  the 
respective  clubs.  It  is  very  evident, 
at  this  time,  that  the  Oakland,  Sac- 
ramento and  Los  Angeles  teams  will 
have  to  improve  their  pitching  de- 
partments considerably  or  be  eon- 
tented  with  berths  in  the  second 
division,  for  as  the  clubs  are  now 
constituted,  barring  serious  mishaps, 
San  Francisco,  Portland  and  Vernon 
will  undoubtedly  fight  it  out  for  first  division 
honors.  The  lead  San  Francisco  now  has  is  due 
much  to  "the  splendid  work  of  its  pitching  staff. 
Portland,  since  the  addition  of  its  former  star  box 
man,  Ben  Henderson,  has  a  formidable  lot  of 
twirlers  and  will  be  in  the  fight  all  the  way.  .Sacra- 
mento's batting  has  been  excellent  and  its  de- 
fensive work  good,  but  this  is  as  much  as  can  be 
said,  for  the  pitchers  have  only  occasionally 
shown  Class  "A"  form.  Vernon's  slab  men  are  be- 
ginning to  show  their  true  merit,  and  if  the  team 
can  hit  as  they  figure,  it  will  be  a  hard  club  for 
any  to  win  a  series  from.  Oakalnd  promises  well, 
if  its  new  twirlers  could  come  anywhere  near  fill- 
ing the  vacancy  caused  by  the  loss  of  Moser  and 
Lively,  but  no  signs  of  such  good  fortune  seems  to 
be  in  store  for  it.  although  Knight  and  Kilroy 
will  unquestionably  make  good — at  least  tuey  com- 
pare fovarably  with  the  balance  of  the  staff.  Los 
Angeles  is  now  the  "cellar  champs,"  which  place 
it  is  destined  to  hold,  with  only  one  pitcher  per- 
forming up  to  the  standard.  The  return  of  Howard 
and  Bernard  will  assist  it  in  all  departments  of 
the  game,  but  with  its  mediocre  staff  of  twirlers 
it  would  take  several  Cobbs  and  Lajoies  to  win. 

Nearly  all  of  the  former  Coast  ^eapruers  in  the 
"big  brush''  have  started  the  season  of  1911  very 
auspiciously.  _  Grey  pitched  Washington  to  victory 
against  Boston  on  the  opening  day.  Bob  Groorne 
has  two  victories  chalked  to  his  credit  in  the  same 
number  of  starts.  Chase,  at  the  helm  for  the  New 
York  Americans,  won  the  first  four  games  played. 
Lively,  last  year  with  the  Oaks,  won  his  first  with 
Detroit,  holding  the  hard-hitting  Cleveland  club 
down  to  seven  hits  and  defeating  them  five  to  two. 
Easterly  began  as  if  he  intended  leading  the  Ameri- 
can League  in  batting,  by  getting  four  hits  out  of 
as  many  times  at  bat  in  the  opening  contest. 
Zeider,  with  the  White  Sox,  and  Duffy,  Lewis  and 
Hooper,  with  Boston  Americans,  have  already  pulled 
off  stunts  out  of  the  ordinary.  Chance's  Cubs,  even 
without  the  services  of  Overall,  are  winning  games 
in  the  same  way  they  did  during  the  past  four 
seasons.  Bill  Hogan,  formerly  with  Oakland,  is 
hitting  as  well  as  any  of  his  teammates  on  the 
world's    champion    Athletics.

To  Avoid  the  Game  Warden. 

Follow  this  calender  of  open  seasons,  in  line  with 
the  game  laws  passed  at  the  last  legislative  session, 
and  you  won't  get  into  trouble  with  the  game 
warden: 

Deer — July  15th  to  November  1st.  Limit  two  in 
season. 

Ducks — October  1st  to  February  15th.  Limit 
twenty-five  a  day. 

Doves — July  15th  to  October  15th.  Limit  twenty- 
five  a  day. 

Valley  Quail — October  1st  to  February  1st.  Limit 
twenty  a  day.

Crab — March   1st  to   November   1st. 

Black  Sea  Brandt — October  1st  to  April  1st.  Limit 
twentv-five  a  day. 


Trout  Season  Open. 
The  tangle  over  the   date  when  the  open   season 
when  trout  fishing  begins  in  California  has  at  last 
been  settled.    Under  the  new  law  passed  by  the  last 


A  M  A  T  E 


Legislature  it  has  been  legal  to  fish  for  any  species 
of  trout  in  all  the  districts  of  the  State  except  in 
district  three,  which  is  composed  of  the  counties  of 
Plumas,  Butte,  Sierra,  Yuba,  Sutter,  Nevada,  Placer, 
El  Dorado,  Sacramento,  Amador,  Alpine,  Calaveras, 
Tuolumne,  Mariposa  and  Mono.  In  the  state  of 
Nevada  the  season  opens  May  1st  and  the  date  for 
open  season  in  district  three  in  California  was  made 
the  same  to  prevent  Nevada  fishermen  from  cross- 
ing the  state  line  and  fishing  in  the  Truekee  district, 
to  the  detriment  of  the  home  fishermen.

armed  with  endorsements  from  the  City  Trustees, 
Chamber  of  Commerce  and  people  generally.  Red- 
ding will  also  send  a  special  committee  to  assist 
McCloud  Parlor,  No.  149,  to  bring  the  1912  Grand 
Parlor  there,  and  also  has  the  endorsement  of  the 
local  commercial  and  promotion  bodies.  Fresno  Par- 
lor, No.  25,  of  Fresno,  will  leave  its  fate  in  the  mat- 
ter in  the  hands  of  the  delegates  from  the  Raisin 
City,  who  will  not  be  lacking  in  the  usual  endorse- 
ments. Each  city  promises  attractive  forms  of  en- 
tertainment for  the  delegates,  and  is  amply  able  to 
accommodate  the  delegates  and  those  accompanying 
them. 

At  a  meeting  of  Santa  Rosa  Parlor,  No.  28,  held 
April  20th,  it  was  decided  to  ask  for  the  Admission 
Day  celebration,  to  be  held  September  9th,  for  Santa 
Rosa.  The  business  men  of  the  city  have  endorsed 
the  project,  and  promise  their  support  to  make  thy 
celebration   a  success. 


NATIVE    DAUGHTERS   NOW 

ELECTING  GRAND  PARLOR  DELEGATES. 

There  is,  as  yet,  little  excitement  in  Native 
Daughter  circles,  for  the  reason  that  delegates  to 
the  Grand  Parlor  will  not  be  elected  until  the 
several  Parlors  meet  in  May.  There  will  no  doubt 
be  many  candidates  for  grand  office  and  this 
Grand  Parlor  session  will  in  all  probability  be  no 
exception  to  those  that  have  preceded  it,  in 
numerous  and  lively  debates  upon  the  Order's  poli- 
cies; Mamie  G.  Peyton  of  Stockton  will  retire  as  head 
of  the  Order  at  the  elose  of  the  Santa  Cruz  session, 
and  Anna  Lacey  of  San  Francisco  will  no  doubt 
succeed  to  the  Grand  Presidency.  Those  in  posi- 
tion to  know,  predict  that  Mrs.  Peyton,  in  her  annual 
report,  will  make  several  recommendations  that  are 
bound  to  provoke  prolonged  debates,  but  at  the 
same  time  have  a  tendency  to  settle  several  ques- 
tions of  policy  that  have  been  the  means  of  keeping 
the  Order  in  an  unsettled  condition,  and  which  those 
interested  in  the  Order's  welfare  realize  must  be 
firmly  established  if  the  Order  is  to  prosper  and 
progress. 

To  succeed  Miss  Lacey  as  the  Grand  Vice-Presi- 
dent, there  will  be  a  contest  between  Anna  Bed- 
ford of  Red  Bluff,  Alice  Dougherty  of  Livermor.e, 
and  Alison  F.  Watt  of  Grass  Valley.  For  Grand 
Trustee,  seven  to  be  elected,  there  will  no  doubt  be

Contract — No  Hypodermic  Injections  or  Other  Disagreeable  Features 

The  Gatlin  Institute  was  established  eleven  years  ago  More  than  eleven  thousand  men  and 
women  have  been  cured  of  liquor  drinking  by  the  Gatlin  treatment — there  has  been  failure  to  cure 
in  no  case. 

No  hypodermic  injections;  no  bad  after  effects,  no  poisonous  drugs,  no  substitutive  stimulants — 
a    treatment    so    harmless    that    any    child    could    take    it. 

Each  patient  is  accepted  for  treatment  under  legal  contract  to  curt'  in  TUPKE  DAYS — the 
cure  to  be  entirely  satisfactory  in  every  particular  or  the  fee  paid  is  refunded  when  the  patient 
is   leaving  the   institute  and   treatment  costs   nothing. 

The  Gatlin  Home  treatment  is  just  as  effective  as  Institute  treatment  if  plain,  simple  direc- 
tions  are   followed.

Tree-Planting  at  New  School. 

Berkeley — Berkeley  Parlor,  ISTo.  150,  held  post- 
poned Arbor  Day  exercises  March  17th  at  2  p.m.  at 
the  new  Oxford  school.  The  nature  of  the  pro- 
gram was  the  planting  of  two  trees — one  a  mission 
olive,  presented  by  Mrs.  C.  Hall,  P.P.,  in  the  name 
of  Berkeley  Parlor,  and  the  other  a  Chilian  ever- 
green cherry,  given  by  Luther  Burbank  to  the 
school.  Little  Mildred  Mahoney,  daughter  of  Mrs. 
Lucy  Mahoney,  president  of  the  Parlor,  placed  the 
first  shovelful' of  dirt  around  the  trees,  by  virtue 
of  being  the  first  native  daughter  born  to  a  mem- 
ber  after   Berkeley   Parlor   was   instituted. 

Mrs.  Mahoney  delivered  the  prayer.  Addresses 
were  made  hy  Superintendent  of  Schools,  F.  F. 
Bunker;  Mrs.  Clara  Partridge,  principal  of  the 
school,  and  Hrs.  Elinor  Carlisle,  school  director. 
The  latter  was  the  reeipent  of  a  large  basket  of 
violets  from  the  Native  Daughters.  Vocal  selec- 
tions by  the  school  children's  chorus,  a  reading, 
and  the  rendition  of  the  song,  "California,"  by 
Mrs.  Clara  Farrell,  made  the  program  a  very  en- 
joyable one.  Berkeley  Parlor  has  planted  special 
trees  at  four  different  schools  in  Berkeley,  all  of 
which  are  growing,  and  the  Parlor  is  proud  of  the 
unusually    healthy    condition    of    the    same.

work,  the  Parlor  adjourned  to  the  banquet-room, 
where  the  committe  had  arranged  a  repast  of  salad, 
sandwiches,  cake  and  coffee.  Mrs.  W.  Curtis,  presi- 
dent of  Long  Beach  Parlor,  acted  as  toastmistress 
and  called  on  the  Grand  President,  who  re- 
sponded with  a  toast  on  "The  Order;"  Past

lowed by  Grand  Trustee  Dempsey  on  "California," 
after  which  Mrs.  Peyton  accompanied  the  Los  An- 
geles members  to  that  city.

Beautifying  Highways. 

Bakersfield — Grand  President  Mamie  G.  Peyton 
paid  an  official  visit  to  Tejon  Parlor.  No.  136.  April 
5th,  and  was  royally  entertained  by  a  committee 
from  the  Parlor  who  took  her  in  charge  upon  ar- 
rival and  escorted  her  to  a  local  hotel,  where  she 
received  the  members  of  the  Parlor  from  4  to  6 
o'clock.  At  7  o'clock  a  banquet  was  served,  the 
banquet-room  being  attractively  decorated  in  smi- 
lax,  carnations  and  pennants  of  the  Berkeley  and 
Stanford  Universities  and  Kern  County  High 
School.  The  menu  consisted  of  California  products, 
and  for  three  hours  the  twenty-five  members  pres- 
ent toasted  everything  dear  to  California.  Follow- 
ing the  repast,  adjournment  was  had  to  the  meet- 
ing hall,  where  the  ritual  was  efficiently  exemplified 
and  the  Parlor  business  was  transacted.  Mrs.  Pey- 
ton expressed  great  pleasure  in  the  reception  ac- 
corded her.  and  complimented  Tejon  Parlor  upon  its 
excellent  condition,  and  the  officers  upon  their  in- 
teresting  rendition    of   the   ritual. 

Under  the  auspices  of  Tejon  Parlor,  the  three-act 
comedy-drama,    ' '  Charley 's    Aunt, ' '     was     recently 


1 


presented  at  the  Bakersfield  Opera  House  to  a  large 
and  pleased  audience.  The  play  was  well  staged, 
and  all  the  members  of  the  cast  acquitted  them- 
selves creditably.  The  success  of  the  affair  was 
largely  owing  to  the  committee  who  promoted  the 
entertainment,  and  the  excellent  cast  selected.  The 
proceeds  netted  $125,  and  will  be  used  to  plant 
and  care  for  trees  on  Union  avenue,  the  drive  to 
the  cemetery.  Following  are  the  executive  com- 
mittee that  had  the  affair  in  charge:  Miss  Annie 
Foran,  Miss  Manuelle  Moritz,  Miss  Dina  Pesante. 
The  work  of  planting  these  trees  has  already  be- 
gun, and  after  the  street  has  been  graded,  the  Na- 
tive Daughters  will  plant  poppies  along  the  side 
paths  and  make  other  improvements.  When  the 
ground  was  in  readiness  for  the  trees,  a  general 
holiday  was  declared  in  Bakersfield  to  celebrate 
Arbor  Day.  There  was  music  by  a  band,  speeches, 
and  everybody   seemed   interested  in   the  work.

Oakland — Piedmont  Parlor,  No.  87,  is  making  big 
preparations  for  a  masquerade  to  be  held  on  May 
ISth.  April  20th,  a  high  jinks  brought  out  a  large 
attendance,  and  was  a  success  in  every  way.  Great 
interest  is  being  shown  by  the  members  in  affairs 
pertaining  to  the  Order,  and  the  Parlor  is  pro- 
gressing steadily. 


Visits  the  Southland. 

Los  Angeles — Grand  President  Mamie  G.  Pey- 
ton paid  her  official  visit  to  Los  Angeles  Parlor,  No. 
124,  Saturday  evening,  April  1st,  and  was  hospitably 
received  by  a  large  membership.  P.  G.  P.  Eva  T. 
Bussenius  and  Grand  Trustee  Anna  I.  Dempsey 
graced  the  evening  with  their  presence,  and  many 
members  from  La  Esperanza  and  Long  Beach  Par- 
lors were  in  attendance.  After  the  opening  cere- 
mony, the  Parlor  president,  Miss  Emma  Oswald,  de- 
clared a  recess  during  which  the  members  marched 
around  the  room,  each  presenting  the  honored  guest 
with  a  most  beautiful  carnation.  The  work  of  the 
Order  was  given  in  a  most  creditable  manner,  upon 
which  the  Grand  President  congratulated  the  Parlor. 
The  Grand  President  was  presented  with  a  hand- 
some cut-glass  vase  as  a  token  of  appreciation  and 
regard.  The  Parlor  enjoyed  the  remarks  of  the 
Grand  President  and  listened  most  attentively  to 
the    outline    of    her    work. 

After  the  business  session,  the  party  was  invited 
to  a  local  cafe,  where  the  beautiful  banquet-room 
was  in  readiness.  Miss  Emma  Oswald,  the  Parlor 
president,  acted  as  toastmistress.  Mrs.  Fannie  Pra- 
ther  read  a  most  delightful  paper  on  the  conditions 
of  Native  Daughter  affairs  in  the  Southland.  D.  D. 
G.  P.  Anna  I.  Dempsey  was  presented  next,  and 
gave  a  most  interesting  talk  on  "California,"  a 
subject  very  uear  to  her  heart,  the  following  being 
her  closing  remarks,   which  are   worthy  of  note: 


Your  Loyalty  to 
California 

cannot  express  itself  more  forcibly 
than  by  the  use  of  California-Made 
Products  whose  quality  entitles  them 
to  your  patronage. 

Paradise 
Sodas 

are  better  because  they  are  a  home  product  of 
superior  quality;  because  they  come  to  you 
fresh  from  the  oven;  because  they  require  no 
3500  mile  slow  freight  haul  to  reach  you.  In 
cartons  or  in  bulk. 

Look  for  "Paradise"  on  the  cracker  itself 
and  the  Bird  of  Paradise  on   the  label

SONOMA'S   OLD   ADOBE. 

A    league    from    out    the    city's    bounds, 
Where   stretch   the    foothills   green. 
And   purple   tints   of   mountains    melt 
Into   the   sky's  blue   sheen, 
There,   lone   and   unfrequented, 
By    those    of    human    mold, 
Stands    high    upon    a    rise    of    ground, 
The  Casa  Grande  old. 

The    earthen    walls   have    crumbled    fast 
Beneath    time's    rugged    hand. 
Since  Spanish  hands  above  her  walls 
Their   gorgeous   banner   manned. 
And  while   on   high   the  banner  hung, 
No    ruin    marked   the   fort, 
And  gaily  bloomed  the  roses  sweet 
Within  the  flower-decked  court. 

But   when    our   banner    rose    above 

The    hacienda 's    walls. 

From   thence   ruin   laid   its   hold  upon 

Walls,    porches,    courts    and    halls. 

The  herds  were   driven   from   the   fields, 

The  sheep  were  led  away, 

Ami  all   the  work  of  fifty  years 

Was    ruined   in   a   day. 

No   more   the   courts   and   porches   ring 

With    sounds   of   revelry; 

The    glittering    rank    and    bright    array, 

The    halls    no    longer    so<>. 

For    over    all    there    hangs    the    gloom 

Of    time,    departed    long; 

The  martial   music   is  replaced 

By    peaceful    sparrows '    song; 

A   horde  of  swallows  swift,   within 

Their  tiny   nests   have   made 

Among    the    shattered    friezes 

And   tue   rafters  all  decayed; 

The  rabbits  scamper  o'er  the  floors 

In  mimic  woodland  brawl. 

And   small    screech   owls,   like   sentinels, 

Hoot  from   the  shattered   walls; 

'  lastilian   steeds   no   longer   neigh. 
From  flowered  court  yards  gay; 
Instead,   the   red  fox   prowls  about 
In  nightly  quest  of  prey; — 
Sure   signs  of  desolation. 
Of   abandon    a  nd    deca;  , 
That  still  more  mighty  mansions 
Have  in  ruin   cast  away. 

Then  raise  once  more  the  Stars  and  Stripes, 

Above    her    time-worn    walls; 

Repair  her  broken  roofs  and  courts 

And   cleanse  her  rain-stained   halls; 

A   glorious   land-point   let   her   stand 

Upon   the   sun-kissed   hill. 

Ami  let  the  birds  within  her  courts 

Sing   through   the    morning    si  Ml. 

But  do   not  drive   the   rabbits   wild 

From   near   Vallejo  's   home; — 

They   helped   to    cheer    her   lonely    days, 

When  man  from  her  had  gone.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


May,    1911 


►torn* 


©IT, 


aumoc 


EAUTIFUL,  SEDUCTIVE  AND  EN- 
chanting  month  of  May,  when  the 
winter's  romances  culminate  at  the 
altar,  thereby  giving  it  the  name  of 
the  ' '  bridal  month,  "as  it  seems 
now  to  vie  with  June  for  that  honor. 
Beauty  is  everywhere,  as  the  earth 
really  takes  on  added  splendor  after 
our  late  rains,  bringing  out  the 
woodland  beauties  as  well  as  our 
choice  blooms,  so  we  bow  down  in 
humble  reverence  to  thee.  As  in 
olden  times  when  the  Romans  offered  up  sacrifices 
to  Mercury,  the  mythical  child  of  Maia,  from  whom 
this  month  derives  its  name,  we  of  this  enlightened 
period  must  needs  offer  up  the  choicest  products 
of  the  loom,  in  all  the  many  dainty  fabrics  and  col- 
ors, veritably  vying  with  nature  to  produce  the 
most  exquisite  results. 

In  the  number  of  dainty  gowns  and  accessories 
dedicated    to     our  "%.xx 

beautiful    maids 
and  matrons,  dad- 
dy is  liable  to  shut 
his  check-book  up 
with  a  snap,  when 
he  is  besieged  for 
a  particula  rly 
fetching  "Paris 
idea,"    with  — 
' '  not  so  much, 
girlie,      for      one 
gown,     dad     can 't 
afford     it     this 
spring. ' '     But  we  go  just  the 
same  to  the  fashion  shops  and 
thence  to  "madame's,"  know- 
ing when  the  bills  do  come  in, 
that     same     cheek-book     will 
have    to    open   wide    with    not 
less     than     three     figures     of 
goodly  proportions  to  meet  the 
demands      of      ' '  girlie ' '      and 
mother.      Never      mind,      dad, 
you're   only  waiting   for   Aug- 
ust, when  the  rod  and  gun  and 
a  dog  or  two,  with   congenial 
companions,  a  little  shanty  in 
the     wilderness     (?)     or     else 
some     small     woodland     hotel, 
beckons,  and  how  quickly  and

MOOH 

Costume  Chiffon,  Alceda  Silk.  Though  there  are 
others,  you  may  have  to  go  to  more  tlian  one  shop 
to  find  the  above  mentioned  fabrics.  They  all 
have  quite  an  Oriental  twang,  but  the  wondrous 
beauty  of  most  of  those  weaves  can  only  be  imag- 
ined, if  not  seen,  studied  and  reveled  in,  for  the 
coloring,  texture  and  daintiness  are  not  obvious  at 
first   glance.      In   some   of   the   late   importations   in 

Evening  Gowns 
the  Oriental  ideas  are  very  much  in  vogue.  A  black 
and  white  shephard  check  had  the  under-gown  of 
black  satin,  the  check  in  tunic  style  about  five 
inches  from  the  bottom  of  under-skirt.  The  tunic 
was  open  in  front,  with  nine  small  black  erochetted 
buttons  on  each  side  of  opening,  and  had  a  folded 
satin  girdle,  sailor  collar  and  long  roll  of  black 
satin.  Even  on  dressing  gowns  for  afternoon  and 
evening  wear,  the  sailor  collar  with  the  long  roll 
in  front  is  a  distinctive  feature,  though  the  collar 
is  not  very  deep  at  the  back,  barely  showing  about 
three  inches,  anu  the  necks  with  these  are  cut 
demi-dress — that  is,  not  full  decollette,  but  low 
enough  to  have  the  sailor  collar  outline  it  to  good 
advantage.  Kimono  sleeves  with  such  a  model, 
cut  in  three-quarter  or  elbow  length,  and  a  tiny 
fine  lace  cuff  just  showing  underneath,  are  very 
chic,  with  a  wide  band  of  the  plain  satin  to  finish 
the  sleeves  above  the  lace.  The  lace  is  also  in- 
serted in  the  bodice,  with  a  touch  of  cerise  velvet 
(or  any  shade  to  go  with  one's  complexion),  at  the 
top  of  the  lace.  On  nearly  all  gowns,  this  little 
touch  of  color,  to  give  it  "the  air,"  is  very  much 
in  favor  with  our  modiste. 

An  Indian-red  figured  foulard,  made  with  the 
draped  tunic  in  a  pointed  effect  over  a  black  satin 
under-skirt,  was  another  striking  model.  The  waist 
was  bloused  in  front,  with  point  de  Paris  lace  for 
yoke  and  under-sleeves.  Wide  black  satin  cuffs 
turned  back  over  the  three-quarter  kimono  sleeves. 
The  deep  Indian-red  of  the  foulard  with  tiny  black 
figures  is  certainly  an  innovation  in  the  foulard 
worlu.  As  the  season  advances,  marquisette  is 
gaining  a  hold  on  the  hearts,  as  well  as  the  purses 
of  well-dressed  folks,  for  when  seen  in  all  its 
shimmering  beauty,  whether  in  the  plain  or  novelty 
ideas,  it's  hard  to  pass  it  by,  if  one  can  afford  such 
a  gown.  It  is  now  used  for  dressy  coats,  to  be 
worn  over  a  gown  of  the  same  material,  though  in 
a   different  shade. 

Marquisettes   Make   Up    Prettily. 

A  nifty  gown  of  white  marquisette,  with  a  fif- 
teen-inch band  of  black  marquisette  around  the 
bottom  of  the  skirt,  which  was  round  length,  had 
a  floral  design  in  white  Indian  bead-work  on  the 
front  breadth,  also  on  the  front  of  the  waist  in 
the  pointed  effect.  A  double  row  of  two  dozen  tiny 
white  erochetted  buttons  extended  down  the  middle 
front  of  the  waist,  dividing  the  white  Indian  bead- 
work.  It  was  an  extremely  smart  gown.  The  bead- 
work  also  trimmed  the  back  of  the  waist  in  a  deep 
point  extending  from  over  the  shoulders  down  to 
the  center  back.  A  folded  black  marquisette  gir- 
dle, with  long  ends  and  long  white  Indian-bead 
fringe  at  the  ends,  fell  from  the  left  side  of  the 
girdle  nearly  to  the  bottom  of  the  skirt.  The  elbow 
sleeves  also  had  the  white  bead-work  in  floral  de- 
sign   embroidered   on   them. 

The  fancy  bordered  marquisette  is  another  natty 
idea  in  the  many  that  the  marquisette  world  is 
showing.  The  black  and  white  checks  with  a  wide 
border  of  colors — which  is  used  as  a  trimming  band

around  the  narrow  skirt  and  across  the  front  of 
the  waist  with  a  combination  of  applique  lace  on 
the  same,  and  a  touch  of  red  velvet  to  outline  the 
low  dutch  neck  and  around  the  kimono  sleeves — 
are  swell  models  for  afternoon  or  dancing  frocks. 
Large  red  and  white  dotted  borders  on  these  checks 
are  very  smart.  Black  satin  is  also  used  on  most 
gowns,  either  as  an  under-gown,  in  bands,  girdles 
and  yokes,  or  in  any  other  combinations  that 
suit  one's  own  individual  taste.  But  for  smart 
and  chic  effects,  the  newest  of  the  new  is  the  mar- 
quisette   coats. 

Imagine  a  dainty  gown  of  the  sheerest  material 
with  such  a  coat  over  it,  and  if  the  imagination  does 
not  quite  comprehend  the  result,  then  hie  yourself

to  some  of  our  up-to-date  emporiums  and  ask  to 
see  one.  Cut  nearly  full  length,  as  only  about  ten 
inches  of  the  gown  shows  underneath,  with  low

pire effect,  and  open  all  the  way  down  the  front, 
as  tue  only  closing  is  at  the  waist,  with  either  the 
Indian  bead-work  in  white  or  colors  all  around  the 
entire  coat  and  up  both  sides  of  the  front,  the 
belt  also  beaded,  an^  you  have  a  garment  that  is  a 
dream,  though  a  very  realistic  one.  Iridescent 
beading  is  also  worn  on  these  coats,  as  well  as  on

other  sheer  fabrics.  The  hand-embroidered  mar- 
quisettea  are  as  dainty  as  one  could  wish,  and  any 
one  with  an  unlimited  stock  of  patience,  niee  soft 
hands,  and  with  nothing  to  hurry  them,  may  employ 
her  time  very  profitably  uny  day  in  anticipation 
of  the  looks  of  envy  when  it  is  finally  finished  and 
donned   for  one's   best   friend's  "At  home.'' 

In  regard  To  hand  embroidery  on  gowns,  linen  is 
an  extremely  niee  material  for  the  beauty  of  the 
embroidery  to  show  up  on.  Coral  pink  embroidered 
in  while,  with  tiny  white  crochetted  buttons,  or 
tans  with  toe  blue  embroidery,  white  with  black,  or 
in  fact,  any  of  the  late  combinations  are  just  what 
will  be  worn  tins  coming  season.  Linen  will  hold 
its  own  in  the  wash  fabrics,  and  is  so  serviceable, 
one  does  not  fee]  as  though  something  is  going  to 
happen  to  it.  when  out  for  a  good  time  at  the 
mountains   or    beaches. 


Eton  Jackets  and  Short  Coat  Suits, 
are    a    feature    thai    one    must     aot     overlook     m 
their  preparation  for  a  summer  in  the  city  or  coun- 

t  iv.        I'll o ns    are     now     much     prettier,    and     built     on 

entirely  different  lines,  from  the  full  affairs  of  a 
decade  ago,  Bather  full  though  straighl  kimono 
sleeves  of  t  luce  qua  iter  length,  with  a  wide  band 
of  st one  contrasting   material   or  color,  or    jus'    the 

s;ime  - :ind  if  :i  strip,  either  on  the  Inns  or  stripes 
running    around     instead     of     lengt  hwise — the     same 

effect  around  the  neck,  down  each  side,  front  and 
around  the  bottom,  which  just  comes  to  'in-  waist 
line,  and  combined  with  a  plain  narrow  skirt,  make 
:in  ext  remely  stylish  model.  Stout  women  should 
seleet  some  ot  her  mode,  as  short  jackets  tend  to 
add  to  their  apparent  size. 

Hair  stripes  of  blue  on  a  white  ground,  combined 
with  black  satin  for  the  sailor  or  round  collar  with 
the  long  roll  in  front,  is  another  nice  mode.  In 
the  neck,  or  used  as  piping  on  the  collar,  may  be 
a  touch  of  red  velvet,  with  tiny  red  silk  crochetted 
buttons  across  the  shoulder  lines  of  the  collar.  The 
side  closing  to  the  coat  is  chic,  as  the  long  roll 
of  the  collar  can  be  brought  over  and  from  one  to 
three  rather  large  buttons  may  be  used  as  colsing. 
Buttons  are  sometimes  used  on  the  back  of  the 
short  jacket — a  row  of  small  ones,  about  four  to  a 
Bide,  just    below  the  waist-line. 

AVhene  one  doesn  't  wish  to  be  bothered  with  a  coat 
suit  for  the  street  or  an  outing,  the  one-piece  gowns 
of  silk  or  wool  are  very  smart.  Blue  serge  with 
gold  military  braid  and  buttons,  makes  a  swell 
model.  The  side  front  closing  is  now  quite  a  fea- 
ture, and  the  long  roll  on  the  left  front,  with  a  fin- 
ing of  black  satin  and  gold  braiding,  and  tiny  gold 
buttons  on  the  waist  and  down  the  side  closing  of 
the  skirt  about  fourteen  inches  below  the  waist- 
line, ought  to  suit  the  most  fastidious.  Sailor  or 
round  collars  are  worn  on  these  gowns,  and  the  tiny 
gold  buttons  can  trim  that  also.  Gilt  frogs  for 
closing,  or  as  trimming  on  the  waist,  and  the  tiny 
Stead   of  buttons,   if   one   prefers  them. 

Kings  blue  satin  and  Irish  green  messaline  were 
a  combination  for  a  one-piece  gown  that  was  ex- 
tremely fetching,  and  though  those  two  colors  sound 
incongruous,  yet  there  wasn't  a  hint  of  a  clash.  A 
dainty  white  lace  yoke,  with  small  red  buttons  to 
outline  it,  with  black  satin  cuffs  and  a  folded  girdle — 
and.  there  wasn  't  a  flaw  in  the  entire  gown.  As 
'  'joy  riding ' '  must  have  properly  gowned  ladies, 
those   new 

Motor  Coats  of  Satin, 
which  are  now  shown,  lined  with  some  pretty  color, 
such  as  cerise,  gold,  coral  or  deep  red,  to  suit  one's 
taste,  or  perhaps  a  Royal  purple  lined  with  pearl 
gray  and  embroidered  in  heavy  black  silk,  or  even 
black  velvet  with  satin  lining  of  any  color  one 
prefers,  are  just  what  will  enhance  a  dainty  maid's 
or  matron's  charms.  For  motoring,  we  see  some 
ideas  carried  out  in  the  millinery  line,  as  those  black 
and  white  Dutch  bonnets  in  the  Mary  Louise  style, 
with  velvet  and  flowers  as  trimming,  or  wheat,  oats 
and  flowers,  and  large  silk  bows,  are  the  latest  im- 
portations. The  collapsible  milans  are  also  used 
for  motoring  or  outing,  and  are  a  distinctively  new 
feature,  and  being  admirably  suited  to  our  climate, 
make   typical   California    hats. 

Paradise  feathers  are  taking  the  place  of  ostrich, 
where  one  wishes  a  change,  but  for  dress  hats,  those 
real  lace  veils,  that  run  up  into  the  hundred-dollar 
price,  are  certainly  a  smart  adjunct  to  one's  toilet. 
When  not  over  the  face  they  are  thrown  back  over 
the  hat  very  loosely,  falling  all  around  the  head  in 
a  picturesque   way. 

Hair  braids  in  black  and  white  are  strictly  a 
spring  and  summer  style,  and  those  fluffy  Blondine 
fancies  in  nearly  any  color  or  white,  trim  them  and 
the  soft  milans  to  perfection,  as  nothing  else  is 
needed  but  a  little  ribbon,  and  where  the  hat  can 
stand  it,  just  the  Blondine  fancy  is  used  for  that 
purpose. 

This  is  a  season  for  bright  and  gay  effects,  so 
cheer  up,  ail  ye  pessimists,  for  you  are  not  wanted 
on  this  sphere,  unless  you  reform,  for  you  are  regu- 
lar "wet  blankets''  on  joyous  natures,  or  the  buff 
of  ridicule.

Lone  Tree  Landmark  Swept  Away. 

During  the  recent  heavy  winter  storms,  the  Lone 
Pine  Tree  which  for  years  had  stood  as  a  guardian 
over  the  old  diggings  near  Nevada  City  was  swept 
away,  and  now  lies  in  the  diggings  over  which  it 
towered  as  far  back  as  the  oldest  inhabitant  can 
remember.  The  tree  was  situated  about  a  mile  and 
a  half  west  of  Nevada  City,  overtopping  what  is 
known  as  Hirshman  diggings,  and  was  recognized 
as  a  landmark  of  the  State.  At  one  time  the 
scenes  around  the  old  tree  were  intensely  lively, 
but  as  the  mines  became  worked  out  the  people 
left,  but  the  tree  still  stood  and  grew. 

It  weathered  many  a  winter  storm,  but  in  late 
years  the  earth  about  its  roots  became  loosened, 
and  although  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters made  efforts  to  stay  its  downfall,  they  were 
unsuccessful  and  the  tree  was  left  to  its  fate.

ALFRED    AUSTIN    WOOD. 

Alfred  Austin  Wood,  junior  past  president  of 
Riverside  Parlor.  No.  251,  X.  S.  G.  W.,  died  sud- 
denly ar  his  Lome  in  Riverside.  April  12th.  from 
a  paralytic  stroke.  Funeral  services  were  held  in 
that  city  April  14th.  after  which  the  remains  were 
conveyed  to  the  depot  for  shipment  to  Los  An- 
geles, a  large  number  of  the  members  of  Riverside 
Parlor  acting  as  escort,  in  a  body.  Upon  arrival 
of  the  funeral  party  in  Los  Angeles,  and  at  the 
request  of  Riverside  Parlor,  a  delegation  of  local 
Native  Sons  escorted  the  remains  to  the  place  of 
interment.  Many  beautiful  floral  pieces  covered 
the  newly-made  grave,  among  them  being  a  floral 
Bear    Flag,    sent    by    Riverside    Parlor. 

Alfred  Austin  Wood  was  born  in  Tomales,  Marin 
County,  in  1859,  and  had  been  a  resident  of  River- 
side since  1S83.  where  he  became  active  in  business 
and  fraternal  circles.  Surviving  deceased  are  a 
widow,  an  aged  father.  William  R.  Wood,  and  a 
sister,  Miss  Alfaretta  Wood. 


BENJAMIN  F.  SHINKLE. 

Benjamin  F.  Shinkle,  a  member  of  Sacramento 
Parlor.  No.  3,  X.S.G.W..  aged  24  years,  passed  away 
April  10th  at  Redlauds.  where  he  had  resided  the 
past  couple  of  years  in  the  hope  of  getting  relief 
from  tuberculosis,  with  which  he  was  afflicted.  De- 
ceased is  survived  by  a  mother  and  father,  a  bro- 
ther and  two  sisters. 

•'Ben'"  Shinkle  was  a  young  man  of  exemplary 
habits  and  had  not  an  enemy  in  the  world.  Up  to 
about  five  years  ago  he  was  strong  and  husky,  and 
believing  himself  immune  from  any  physical  disa- 
bility. Took  little  care  of  his  health,  and  suddenly 
contracted  the  dread  tuberculosis.  Everything  pos- 
sible was  done  to  save  his  life,  and  although  he 
was  treated  at  the  best  sanitariums,  all  that  could 
be  done  was  to  prolong  his  earthly  existence.  Know- 
ing the  hopelessness  of  his  case,  however,  he  com- 
plained not.  and  to  his  dying  day  wore  the  same 
smile  and  maintained  the  same  pleasing  disposition 
that  characterized  his  short  stay  amongst  us. 


ERWIN  FRANKLIN  KELLOGG. 

Erwin  Franklin  Kellogg,  a  charter  member  of 
Santiago  Parlor.  Xo.  74.  X.S.G.W..  passed  away 
recently  in  West  Anahiem.  Orange  County.  He  was 
a  native  of  St.  Helena,  aged  53  years,  and  in  1S69 
removed  with  his  parents  from  his  birthplace  to 
West  Anaheim,  making  him  a  pioneer  of  that  sec- 
tion of  the  State.  Deceased  is  survived  by  his 
mother.  Mrs.  Mary  O.  Kellogg;  a  brother.  H.  Clay 
Kellogg,  well-known  in  Xative  Son  circles,  and 
several  other  relatives.  Mr.  Kellogg  was  a  devoted 
church  member,  and  a  great  advocate  of  the  tem- 
perance cause.  There  was  a  great  outpouring  of 
friends  at  the  funeral  obsequies,  and  many  beauti- 
ful floral  offerings  testified  to  the  high  esteem  in 
which  deceased  was  held.  Messrs.  Mitchell.  Lowe, 
Wakeham.  Halladay  and  Phillips,  of  Santiago  Par- 
lor, acted  as  honorary  pallbearers.

Varozza  became  a  member  of  Placerville  Parlor. 
Xo.  9.  and  until  his  death.  March  7.  1911,  was  an 
ardent  and  faithful  member  of  the  Order.  But

J.    N.    O.    RECH. 
Whereas,  Almighty  God  has  seen  fit.   in   His  wis- 


dom, to  recall  to  the  Heavenly  Home,  from  whence 
he  came  to  pass  a  few  years  among  us.  our  be- 
loved brother.  J.  X.  0.  Rech.  a  man  of  sterling 
qualities,  loyal  to  his  friends,  a  faithful  member  of 
our  beloved  Order,  the  Xative  Sons  of  the  Golden 
West,  and  a  fair  and  upright  citizen  of  our  Golden 
State:    and 

Whereas.  It  is  fitting  and  proper  that  the  mem- 
bers of  Ramona  Parlor,  Xo,  109.  X.S.G.W..  should 
formally  recognize  the  passing  hence  of  our  brother, 
and  testify  upon  this  occasion  in  Parlor  meeting 
assembled,  to  the  love  and  friendship  which  his 
fellow  members  had  and  still  have  for  him;  now 
therefore,  be  it 

Resolved.  That  in  his  departure  from  this  world, 
our  Parlor  has  lost  a  valued  and  beloved  member, 
whom  all  his  brothers  esteemed  and  loved  most 
dearly,  and  that  we  look  forward,  in  the  fullness 
of  time,  to  again  meeting  and  being  with  him  and 
enjoying  his  happy  and  genial  nature;  and  be  it 
further 

Resolved.  That  Ramona  Parlor.  Xo.  109,  X.  S. 
G.  W.,  does  hereby  extend  to  the  beloved  wife.  Sue

relatives,  the  assurances  of  our  deep  sympathy  and 
our  realization  of  the  great  loss  sustained  by  them, 
and  that  a  copy  of  these  resolutions  be  spread  upon 
the  minutes  of  the  Parlor,  published  in  the  offi- 
cial organ.  The  Grizzly  Bear,  and  sent  to  his  loved 
ones. 


JOHN  G.  COURTNEY. 

John  G.  Courtney,  one  of  the  most  enthusiastic 
members  of  Petaluma  Parlor.  Xo.  '27.  X.S.G.W..  died 
in  Petaluma.  April  3rd.  Through  his  untiring  ef- 
forts toward  the  upbuilding  of  the  Parlor,  deceased 
won  the  respect  and  admiration  of  all  who  knew 
him.  and  was  beloved  by  every  member.  At  the 
meeting  of  Petaluma  Parlor,  April  19th.  the  follow- 
ing resolutions  ,,f  respect,  prepared  by  a  committee 
consisting  of  V.  C.  Mattei.  S.  Z.  Peoples  and  A.  W. 
Horwege   were   unanimously  adopted: 

Whereas.  Almighty  God  in  His  beneficent  wisdom 
has  deemed  it  fitting  to  remove  from  this  earthly 
existence  Brother  John  G.  Courtney,  and  though  his 
memory  remains  with  us  as  a  benediction,  deep  is 
the  regret  of  his  associate  brothers  that  the  closing 
chapter  of  his  life  has  been   written;   and 

Whereas.  The  life  well  spent  may  be  a  profitable 
example  to  us.  for  he  was  a  devoted  husband,  fa- 
ther, son  and  brother,  a  true  friend  and  a  loyal  Cal- 
ifornian;    therefore,  be   it 

Resolved.  By  Petaluma  Parlor.  Xo.  27.  X.S.G.W.. 
in  regular  session  assembled,  that  we  extend  to  the 
bereaved  widow,  mother,  brother  and  sister  our  deep- 
est sympathy  in  this,  their  hour  of  affliction. 

Resolved.  That  a  copy  of  these  resolutions  be  for- 
warded to  the  bereaved  family  of  the  late  Brother 
Courtney,  published  in  The  Grizzly  Bear,  and  as  a 
mark  of  respect,  that  our  charter  be  draped  for 
thirty  davs. 


(*I  love  but  her."  sang  the  love-sick  swain.  "If 
it's  butter  you  want  yon  can  get  that  at  the  corner 
grocery."  called  out  her  irate  father.

HE  YEAR  1849  MAY  PROXiMAIE- 
ly  be  assigned  as  the  birth  date  of  a 
nrw  era.  During  four  centuries  past, 
the  Western  Hemisphere  has  been 
constantly  under  the  glamour  of  new 
eras.  "The  corridors  of  time"  have 
resounded  to  the  cry  of  "Eureka." 
El  Dorados  have  been  opened  up — 
glittering  treasure-ways  —  towards 
which  restless  and  heroic  spirits 
have  rushed,  indifferenl  to  fatigue, 
by  difficulties  and  dangers  undis- 
mayed, by  misfortunes  unsubdued.  "Building  bet- 
ter than  they  knew,"  the  men  who  sought  for  gold, 
ox  weut  in  quest  of  adventure,  became  the  found- 
ers of  an  empire;  and  it  is  fitting  that,  as  far  as 
possible,  their  deeds  appear  in  tin-  record  and  their 
names  on  the  imperishable  scroll.  Names  and  deeds 
innumerable  have  been  forgotten — lost,  indeed,  to 
all  authentic  memorial— but  they  have  been  pressed 
forward  and  merged  in  the  final  result.  Immortal 
they,  in  this,  perhaps  in  no  other  and  meaner  sense. 
The  above  date  does  not  mark  the  discover  or 
the  initial  impulse;  but  it  is  "far-shining  and  mem- 
orable" as  holding  peculiar  prominence  in  the  mi- 
gratory annals  of  the  last  and  greatest  West.  The 
exodus"  of  '4H  was  not  only  notable  in  itself,  but 
opportunely  great  in  the  final  westward  movement 
of  the  human  race.  .Ships  had  already  anchored  in 
San  j-'rancisco  Bay,  pioneers  had  located  homes  in 
Oregon,  and  the  Donner  Party  had  perished  miser 
ably  amid  the  snowdrifts  of  Donner  Lake;  but  the 
migration  of  '49  was  like  a  tidal  wave  rolling 
across  the  continent.  Multitudes  had  read  glowing 
accounts  of  the  rich  placers,  the  wide  interior  plains 
upulent  in  all  things,  the  flower-sprent  hills  and 
blooming  valleys  by  the  sea,  the  incomparable 
climate, — the  "sweet  urbanity  of  air"  that  nour- 
ishes beauty  and  abundance  throughout  the  year; 
and  while  some  only  desired  to  enrich  themselves 
with  gold,  others  cherished  a  better,  wiser  hope,  of 
lengthened  life  and  wider  opportunity  in  permanent 
location,  where  nature  eclipsed  the  charms  with 
which  art  had  dowered  the  home  of  the  Montezu- 
mas — its  fertile  plain,  its  floating  islands  and  its 
placid  lake. 

The  time  was  propitious  for  a  long  and  hazardous 
journey.  The  war-like  tribes  had  buried,  at  least 
the  blade  of  the  hatchet,  and  the  Mormon  settle- 
ment, in  the  valley  of  the  Jordan,  offered  a  haven 
of  repose  and  a  market  for  supplies.  Indeed,  the 
saints  were  glau  to  profit  by  the  sojourn  among 
them  of  those  who  had  no  wish  to  quarrel  with  their 
views,  or  necessity  to  become  pensioners  on  their 
bounty.     The  fate  of  the  Donner  Party  conveyed  a 


warning  that  could  not  be  despised;  and  the  com- 
panies were  fortunate  whose  seasonable  arrival  at 
Salt  Lake  maue  it  entirely  safe  for  them  to  adopt 
the  northern  route. 

But  there  were  upwards  of  three  hundred  emi- 
grants whose  belated  coining  or  enforced  stay  com- 
pelled them  to  ciioose  the  alternative  of  wintering 
in  Utah  or  entering  Southern  California  by  the 
Spanish  trail.  It  was  late,  even  for  this,  and  the 
prospect  discouraged  the  most  sanguine  until  it 
was  learned  that  the  services  of  Captin  Hunt — a 
competent  Mormon  guide — were  available.  For  a 
thousand  dollars,  the  experienced  pathfinder  bound 
himself  to  conduct  a  train  of  one  hundred  wagons 
and  get  them  to  Los  Angeles  at  the  expiration  of 
nine  weeks.  The  chosen  rendezvous  is  now  occu- 
pied by  the  city  of  Provost;  and  there,  on  the  ninth 
day  of  October,  the  caravan,  augmented  by  five 
wagons — with  whose  Mormon  community  the  guide 
affiliated  and  domiciled — formed  the  line  of  march, 
steering  southward  across  the  wild  flax-fields  of 
Utah. 

Mutiny  and  Revolt  Invade  Camp. 

It  was  a  splendid  train,  representing  many 
states,  from  New  York  to  Iowa  and  Missouri,  as  far 
north  as  Michigan,  and  as  far  south  as  Mississippi. 
The  wagons  had  been  thoroughly  overhauled,  the 
oxen  had  been  recruited  in  the  pastures  of  the  Jor- 
dan, and  the  emigrants  were  in  perfect  health.  To 
expedite  travel,  and  by  advice  of  Captain  Hunt, 
provisions  had  been  supplied  to  correspond  with 
the  time  limit;  and,  during  those  early  days  of  the 
journey,  when  the  comparative  smoothness  of  the 
way,  the  even  temperature,  and  the  accommodation 
of  grass  and  water  to  the  stages  of  travel  kept 
every  one  in  a  state  of  optomistic  good  humor,  the 
food  question  was  not  among  the  topics  of  conver- 
sation—it  certainly  did  not  give  rise  to  apprehen- 
sion. At  length,  however,  the  memory  of  the  guide 
seemed  to  be  at  fault;  and,  while  much  valuable 
time  was  consumed  in  laying  out  the  course  and 
Locating  the  infrequent  springs,  the  aspect  of  nature 
became  more  and  mure  austere,  and  the  poverty  of 
nature   more  and  more  appalling. 

When  the  camp  circle  was  drawn  at  Iron  Buttes, 
the  company  had  been  on  the  road  seven  weeks,  and 
less  than  half  the  distance  had  been  covered.  The 
more  difficult,  as  well  as  the  longer  journey,  lay 
before;  and  the  proximity  of  winter  was  betokened 
in  the  shortening  days  and  the  chill  of  the  length- 
ening nights.  The  drudging  teams  were  becoming 
lean,  dispirited  and  sore  of  foot;  while,  to  crown  a 
pyramid  of  real  and  imaginary  woes,  the  food  ques- 
tion rose  out  of  obscurity,  its  famished  features 
wearing  a  goading  look  of  interrogation  and   fear. 


Captain  Hunt  was  a  guide,  but  not  a  leader.  He 
had  no  power  to  resolve  the  doubts  and  tranquil- 
ize  the  spirits  of  men,  to  restore  their  confidence, 
inspire  their  courage,  and  "grapple  them  as  with 
hooks  of  steel";  he  listened  to  complaints  with  an 
air  of  reserve;  throughout,  he  was  taciturnity 
itself. 

Very  unexpectedly,  the  camp  at  Iron  Buttes  be- 
came a  scene  of  mutiny  aim  revolt.  It  was  incident 
to  the  arrival  of  a  party  of  twelve  Mormons,  avow- 
edly in  marching  line  for  the  valley  of  Owen 's 
Lake.  These  men  were  instructed  by  a  chart  they 
professed  to  have  procured  from  the  Utah  chief, 
Walker.  It  defined  a  trail  across  the  wilderness, 
located  with  precision  .  the  springs  and  feeding 
grounds,  and  avoided  difficulties  without  a  waste  of 
energy  or  a  loss  of  time.  Perhaps  no  object  of  na- 
ture haa  presented  greater  imaginary  attractions 
to  the  emigrant  than  Owen 's  Lake.  Fancy  had 
ascribed  purity  to  its  waters,  and  invested  its  sur- 
roundings with  all  the  charm  of  vernal  landscape, 
bright  with  flowers  and  vocal  with  melody;  and 
thitherward  led  the  new,  prospective  route. 

Several  of  the  leading  men  decided  to  call  a  meet 
ing  and  collect  the  opinion  of  the  mass.  It  was 
evident  from  the  first  that  a  large  majority  favored 
the  repudiation  of  Captain  Hunt.  That  gentle- 
man was  culled  out,  near  the  close  of  the  meeting, 
and  responded  with  characteristic  bluntness  and 
brevity.  " Uentlemen, ' '  he  said,  "all  I  have  to 
otter  is,  if  you  take  that  route  you  will  all  be  landed 
in  Hell."  A  vote  was  taken,  and  early  morning 
found  the  camp  astir  with  preparation  for  the  "new 
departure." 

Mountain  Meadows,  famous  in  the  record  of  Mor- 
mon atrocities,  was  the  first  objective  point,  and 
the  course  lay  to  the  southwest.  The  strangers  had 
already  gone  their  way,  never  to  be  seen  or  heard 
of  thereafter  by  those  who  had  taken  their  coun- 
sel. It  was  shrewdly  surmised  that  they  were 
twelve  emissaries  of  the  twelve  Mormon  Apostles, 
and  the  reader  will  find  much  in  these  pages  for 
reflection  along  that  line.  The  entire  Gentile  force 
drew  away  from  the  guide  who,  with  his  five 
wagons,  steered  leisurely  for  the  Spanish  trail. 
The  requirements  of  so  large  a  company,  in  grass 
and  water,  were  always  great;  and  the  satisfaction 
was  complete  when,  at  the  close  of  the  first  day, 
the  camp  was  formed  in  the  midst  of  abundance. 
Anything  short  of  complete  satisfaction,  in  a  host 
without  leadership,  implied  a  state  of  discontent. 
Indeed,  without  leadership  there  can  be  neither 
unity  nor  continuity;  and  when  the  seceders  had 
renounced  their  leader,  they  neglected  to  appoint 
his  successor.

Ax-nien  Lead  tlie  Way. 

It  was  difficult  to  select  one  for  tills  distinction, 
where  all  were  equally  ignorant  of  the  way;  and 
while  men  of  independent  minds  might  meet  in  con- 
ference, there  was  no  certainty  that  they  would 
come  to  an  agreement.  When,  by  information  of 
the  chart,  it  was  time  to  bear  in  a  westerly  direc- 
tion, the  southerly  outlook  seemed  more  inviting. 
This  was  enough  to  determine  the  choice  of  the 
majority.  Without  knowing  it,  they  had  been  trav- 
eling  on  a  une  nearly  parallel  with  that  of  Captain 
Hunt,  and  it  was  not  long  before  they  were  com- 
pelled to  halt  on  the  profound  brink  of.  the  Santa 
(.  lara,  a  tributary  of  tne  Aregas.  The  only  avail- 
able water  flowed  at  the  base  of  a  thousand-foot 
declivity,  and  the  only  man  who  could  get  to  it  was 
a  French  voyageur.  His  risk  and  labor  were  easily 
worth  the  dollar  collected  for  every  bucketful  he 
brought  to  the  surface. "  The  earth  was  barren,  so 
that  the  oxen  had  neither  food  nor  drink;  the  way 
was  effectually  closed;  the  desolate  aspect  of  nature 
quelled  the  ardor  of  youth;  men  began  to  ascribe 
the  simple  effect  of  reaction  to  a  veritable  for- 
shadowing  of  doom. 

Under  these  trying  circumstances,  the  major  part 
of  the  company,  following  the  example  of  Mr. 
Rhinierson,  abandoned  what  they  had  come  to 
regard  as  a  fool-hardy  and  ehimerieal  undertaking 
and,  by  a  venturesome  short-eut,  reunited  with 
Captain  Hunt.  This  reduced  the  train  to  forty 
wagons,  but  it  was  a  winnowing. by  which  the  timid 
and  cautious  were  separated  from  men  whom 
death  alone  could  vanquish.  The  situation  required 
immediate  and  vigorous  action.  Exploring  parties 
were  sent  out  to  find,  if  possible,  a  way  of  escape 
without  additional  loss  of  time.  The  Rev.  Mr. 
r>ner  scaled  a  lofty  mountain,  where  towered  a 
pine,  conspicuous  for  its  loneliness.  With  strenu- 
ous effort  he  climbed  to  the  topmost  branch  and 
obtained  an  expansive  view  of  that  wilderness  to 
which  distance  alone  could  lend  enchantment. 
Others  explored  the  seemingly  impassable  range, 
bristling  with  dwarf  cedars,  that  closed  in  upon  the 
west.  It  was  evident  that,  if  a  roadway  could  be 
cut  through  the  jungle,  rjassage  would  be  assured 
into  the  open  country,  whose  vast  plains  the  imag- 
ination mantled  with  grass  and  dotted  with  the 
verdure  of  springs.  When  the  train  was  once  more 
set  in  motion,  ax-men  led  the  way,  and  the  silence 
of  ages  was  broken  by  sounds  familiar  to  the  log- 
ging camps  of  Maine  and  the  populous  clearings 
of  the  forest-teeming  West.  A  rough  and  hazard- 
ous track  was  exposed,  to  follow  which  tested  to 
the  utmost  the  discipline  of  the  oxen  and  the  will 
of  their  drivers.  Evening  closed  about  a  camp, 
pitched  among  the  bog-lands  of  the  Muddy,  a  slug- 
gish stream  issuing  southward  from  the  Mountain 
Meadows. 

I  shall  here  crave  the  indulgence  of  the  reader 
for  a  brief  digression.  Simultaneously  with  the 
departure  of  the  sixty  wagons,  eleven  young  men 
packed  their  backs  for  an  expedition  march  to 
Owen 's  Lrake.  Their  store  of  provisions  was  com- 
pact and  necessarily  inadequate,  consisting  mostly 
of  bread.  Prudence  dictated  and  firmness  would 
have  enforced  the  severest  restraint  upon  appetite, 
but  the  sanguine  exuberance  of  youth  and  the  in- 
sistent cravings  of  hunger  prevailed  over  judg- 
ment. Before  they  had  sighted  the  White  Moun- 
tains, the  grim  visage  of  famine  rose  out  of  the 
sagebrush  and  sternly  disputed  the  way.  On  the 
eastern  margin  of  the  Amargossa  Desert,  Funeral 
Mountain  before  tnem  and  the  glittering  peaks  that 
exchange  salutations  with  Mt.  Whitney  and  the 
Minarets  just  visible  above  the  northwestern  hori- 
zon, they  v-.oputed  and  separated.  Two  of  their 
number — Savage  and  Pinney — steered  for  the 
peaks,  and  the  remaining  nine  passed  over  into  the 
Valley  of  Death,  there  to  await  the  last  summons  to 
earth 's  countless  millions.  Ten  years  thereafter. 
Governor  Blaisdel  of  Nevada  discovered  their  skel- 
eton remains,  side  by  side,  in  the  undisturbed  com- 
posure of  the  last  and  painless  sleep;  for  in  that 
land  or  silence  Nature,  warring  upon  all  forms  of 
life,  has  imposing  regard  for  the  repose  of  the 
dead. 

A  happier  fortune  was  decreed  for  Savage  and 
Pinney.  Overcome  by  famine,  they  had  crept  into 
a  shadow  of  the  desert  scrub,  where  they  were 
found  by  a  band  of  Owen's  Lake  savages.  The 
wild  men  ministered  to  their  captives  and  led  them 
to  the  lodges  of  their  tribe.  They  were  saved  from 
death  by  torture,  or  the  horrors  of  prolonged  slav- 
ery* by  Pinney  7s  red  hair  and  the  vigor  of  his 
thews.  Having  danced  himself  and  his  companion 
into  favor,  he  was  hailed  as  the  "Big  Red  Chief," 
and  when  spring  had  melted  the  snow  from 
Walker's  Pass,  the  Indians  consented  to  the  de- 
parture of  their  new  friends,  generously  conducting 
them  into  the  Valley  of  the  Kern,  whence  they  pro-  ■ 
ceeded  to  the  placer  mines. 

Relief  from  anxiety  assured  to  the  camp  a  night  of 
perfect  rest,  and  the  oxen,  renewed  by  abundance, 
were  ready  for  the  long  climb  and  the  trackless  way 


inviting  to  purer  air  and  a  wider  view.  The  grade 
was  easy,  however,  and  near  the  summit,  in  an  old 
Indian  corn  field,  the  camp  circle  was  formed  and 
the  cattle  were  relieved  of  their  yokes.  There  was 
a  light  fall  of  snow  and  the  cold  was  penetrating, 
but  soon  great  fires,  fed  by  grease-wood,  shot  into 
lofty  spires,  imparting  warmth  and  radiating  cheer 
uuring  the  preparation  of  the  evening  meal.  Nat 
Ward  played  the  old  tunes  on  his  violin  and  they 
who  had  music  in  their  souls,  though  not,  perhaps, 
in  their  throats,  vexed  the  air  with  the  old-time 
songs.  Enchantment  had  woven  about  them  an 
iris-tinted  web,  yet  to  be  torn,  shredded  and  dis- 
solved by  the  stern  realities  that  awaited  them  in 
the  lone  and  silent  desert-land  to  which  they  were 
hastening. 

A  Kind  Providence  Intervenes. 
Descending  to  the  west,  and  passing  northward 
around  a  promontory,  they  entered  upon  the  last  of 
the  grassy  plains.  Its  western  boundary  was  the 
Timpanute  Mountain,  whose  length  was  about  fifty 
miles.  Northward  the  valley  expanded  indefinitely; 
southward,  it  met  the  true  desert  and  lost  its  char- 
acter, for  there  the  great  hill  could  no  longer  pro- 
tect it  from  blasting  siroccos  and  encroaching 
sands.  Traversea  by  a  considerable  stream,  it  was 
not  wanting  in  fertility,  and  this  impression  was 
confirmed  by  the  shocks  of  grass  seed  that,  dotting 
a  wide  area,  bore  a  striking  likeness  to  those  of 
grain  on  a  field  of  stubble.  Prudence  would  have 
overcome  scruple,  and  wisdom  would  have  appro- 
priated enough  of  the  abundant  store  to  meet  a 
pressing  want,  but  the  strangers  respected  the 
rights  of  ownership,  leaving  the  harvest  undis- 
turbed. The  savages  were  less  scrupulous.  In  the 
gray  of  dawn  they  stole  upon  the  camp,  stampeded 
two    riding   animals   and    drove   them    to    the   base 


and  sky  were  blended,  and  a  transparent  sea,  reflect- 
ing vermillion  and  gold,  bounded  the  desert  plain 
and  breasted  the  distant  mountains  almost  to  their 
topmost  peaks,  .nlong  the  hither  shore  were  stately 
trees  of  forest  growth,  and  nearer,  the  semblance  of 
green  meadows  and  the  rich  mantling  of  level  field 
and  undulating  prairie.  This  was  the  mirage,  but 
they  who  gazea  upon  it  had  never  known  what  won- 
drous power  it  is  capable  of  exerting  within  its 
true  zone. 

Ignorant  of  its  illusive  splendors  and  its  fatal 
charms,  unsuspicious,  they  hailed  with  childish  rap- 
ture the  inland  sea  that  had  so  long  engaged  fancy 
with  its  imaginary  charms.  The  phantasmagoria 
slowly  faded;  ana  when  tne  sun  declined  to  his  set- 
ting, it  was  no  more.  So  stron^  had  been  the  im- 
pression of  reality,  that  disillusionment  did  not  come 
until,  long  aiter  nightfall,  the  train  halted  on  the 
margin  of  a  wide  basin,  over  whose  glazed  surface 
rollea  a  shallow  flood  of  brine,  impelled  hither  and 
yonder  by  the  winds.  For  stately  trees,  there  was  a 
jungle  of  gnarled  sage;  for  meadows  and  grassy 
fields,  the  ever-drifting,  never-changing  wilderness 
of  sand,  ungladdened  by  a  spring,  unrelieved  by  a 
spot  of  verdure.  Far  westward,  two  arms  of  the 
desert  embraced  a  high  and  stony  hill;  thitherward 
the  emigrants  chose  their  course,  with  sueh  speed 
as  the  difficulties  of  the  way  permitted.  The  sky 
was  overcast  with  a  gray  him,  and  the  air  was  cold 
enough  for  snow. 

Retreat,  the  Height  of  Folly. 

Early  in  the  afternoon  the  train  approached  the 
mouth  of  a  deep  fissure,  and  the  weary  oxen  were 
unyokea.  A  G-erman  was  l^rst  to  explore  the  yawn- 
ing breach  that  receded^  far  into  the  mountain.  At 
its  narrow,  abruptby-closed  extremity,  he  surprised 
two  scantily-clad  savages.who  were  engaged  in  lad-

THREE    SURVIVING  ARGONAUTS  OP  DEATH  VALLEY 


of  the  distant  mountain.  As  the  owners  vainly  pur- 
sued the  flight,  they  heard  yells  of  triumph  and  saw 
the  grand  salaam  executed  in  reverse  order  of  dis- 
respect and  insolent  contempt. 

It  will  be  here  noted  that,  had  the  train  pro- 
ceeded to  Mountain  Meadows,  distance  would  have 
been  saved  and  complications  avoided.  In  a  more 
open  and  expansive  region,  their  course  would  have 
been  cheered  and  guided  by  those  shining  peaks 
that,  for  more  than  a  hundred  miles,  crown  the 
lofty  range  on  wnose  bold,  marble  brows  burst  the 
storm-fragments  hurled  from  Mt.  Whitney  and  his 
kindred  heights. 

If  the  wanderers  were  not  fatuously  drawn 
southward  by  the  sun,  we  may  ascribe  their  seeming 
folly  to  the  kind  intervention  of  Providence.  Had 
their  wish  been  gratified  in  entering  the  valley  of 
Owen's  Lake,  they  would,  doubtless,  have,  suffered 
all  that  hostile  and  implacable  savages  are  able  and 
willing  to  inflict.  In  any  event,  of  this  nature,  their 
course  would  have  been  deflected  southward  by  in- 
superable barriers,  so  that  the  outcome  may  have 
been  practically  the  same,  jjy  accident  or  preordi- 
nation, however,  they  became,  after  their  unfor- 
tunate comrades,  the  discoverers  of  Death  Valley; 
but,  more  to  the  purpose,  they  were  permitted  to 
behold  California  in  one  of  its  most  highly  favored 
provinces — when  spring  was  trailing  her  verdant 
robes  amid  a  captivating  bewilderment  of  flowers. 

What  direction  ?  This  was  the  question  that 
divided  counsel  in  Timpanute.  It  was  answered  by 
a  deflection  to  the  south,  with  the  consequence  that 
not  a  drop  of  potable  water  was  found  for  a  period 
of  three  days.  About  mid-afternoon,  as  the  train 
dragged  a  weary  length  through  intolerable  sand, 
the    Dillowing   ±iorizon   suddenly   disappeared,   earth 


ing  the  sand  out  of  a  slow-pulsing  spring.  Seizing 
the  terrified  natives,  he  led  them  into  camp.  They 
were  treated  with  all  possible  kindness,  and  every 
effort  was  made  to  elicit  from  them  information  of 
value.  Comprehending,  at  length,  that  water  was 
the  pressing  want,  they  pointed  toward  a  mountain 
whose  base-line  marked  the  confines  of  the  desert, 
some  ten  miles  to  the  south  of  west.  One  of  them 
was  chosen  for  a  guide,  and  a  party  of  young  men, 
supplied  with  canteens,  was  immediately  dispatched 
to  the  distant  spring.  Clear  and  cold,  it  rose  in  its 
stony  vase,  and  was  found  carefully  covered  by  a 
great,  flat  rock.  The  swarthy  captive,  having 
quieted  suspicion  by  his  willing  and  faithful  service, 
struck  the  back  trail  with  a  rapid  pace,  and  when 
advancing  night  made  objects  indistinct,  he  eluded 
vision  at  a  bound,  leaving  the  panting  white  men 
to  find  their  way  alone.  Guided  by  the  distant 
camp-fires,  they  experienced  little  difficulty,  and 
made  a  timely  arrival  with  the  water  that  had  cost 
them  so  dearly.  The  native  held  in  camp  had  been 
made  the  beneficiary  of  many  'gifts,  but  he,  too, 
managed  to  elude  his  sleepy  guards  and  was  never 
seen  again. 

It  was  now  feared  that  the  prediction  of  Captain 
Hunt  would  be  verified.  Entoiled,  bewildered  and 
depressed,  the  unorganized  mass  could  not  avoid  dis- 
integration. In  one  thing  alone  was  there  a  perfect 
agreement:  that,  with  worn-out  teams  and  stores 
almost  exhausted,  it  would  be  the  madness  of  folly 
to  attempt  a  retreat.  The  march  was  continued, 
but  no  longer  with  unbroken  ranks.  Some  found  an 
outlet  into  the  region  traversed  by  the  Spanish 
Trail.  The  JayhawTks  and  the  Mississippians  bore  to 
the  southwest  and  were  able  to  wheel  their  wagons 
into  Death  Valley.     Arkane  and  Bennett  forced  a

more  southerly  entrance  Into  a  veritable  onJ  de  sac 
of  thai  famed  Ltoona  .\\enn.  and  there  dug  the  pits 
long  known  as  Bennett's  Wells.  The  Towns, 
Wards,  E&astertons,  Briers  and  others,  bound  by  con- 
genial ties  and  concurrent  judgment,  bent  their 
course  a  little  to  the  imi'ln,  presently  involving 
themselves  in  difficulties  and  intricacies  from 
which  there  was  no  escape  except  by  tin-  abandon- 
mt'ii t  of  their  wagona  The  sacrifice  was  consider 
able,  especially  wherein  it  involved  favorite  vol- 
umes ana  things  of  taste  or  endearment.  Discarded 
comforts  and  treasures  thai  bad  preserved  to  the 
pilgrims  a  sense  of  home  lit'*1  throughoul  their  wan 
derings  were  thrown  out  upon  the  sand,  at  the  base 
of  a  wind  beaten  hill  whore,  ten  years  thereafter, 
Governor  Waisdel  ton  ml  t  hem,  still  in  a  state  of 
remarkable   preservation. 

As  the  company  thus  scattered  by  dissentient 
views  was  destined,  in  the  main,  to  share  a  com- 
mon lot,  it  may  be  permitted  to  anticipate  the  event 
ami  locality  of  their  reunion.  The  latter  may  bo 
designated  as  Salt  River  ramp,  a  stage  northward 
from  the  Hot  Spring  oasis  of  Death  Valley.  This 
camp  was  visited  by  the  Blaisdel  party  and,  doubt- 
less, by  many  prospectors  and  explorers.  The 
wagon  tracks  leading  to  it,  and  also  those  of  human 
beings  who  wore  shoes,  may  have  suggested  that 
absurd  fiction  of  "'The  Lost  Train"  so  widely  pub- 
lished and  implicitly  accepted  as  being  true.  As  a 
matter  of  cold  tact,  until  the  25th  of  December, 
1849,  Death  Valley  contained  no  intimation  of  the 
whilom  presence  of  civilized  man — no  reminder  of 
the  near  or  remote  entrance  of  white  men  within  its 
borders;  and  only  they  who  might  have  been  so  for- 
tunate were,  two  years  later,  the  victims  of  the 
Mountain  Meadows  massacre.  Pathfinders  of  wid- 
est celebrity  avoided  even  the  approaches  to  a 
region  in  which  there  was  nothing  to  attract  and 
everything  to  repel,  of  whose  true  character  they 
must  have  hoard  in  Santa  Fe;  and  the  hapless  mor- 
tals with  whom  this  narrative  is  concerned  were 
not  in  quest  of  knowledge  or  adventures.  They 
drifted,  so  to  speak,  on  the  current  of  chance,  each 
day  leaving  them  more  profoundly  involved  in  a 
chaotic  wild,  their  escape  or  deliverance  from 
which  can  only  be  ascribed  to  the  season  of  winter 
and  the  Benign  care  that  was  always  most  apparent 
in  the  time  of  deepest  trouble. 

Journeying  afoot  over  wide  and  sandy  plains  is  a 
trying  experience  at  best,  even  when  there  is  no 
lack  of  the  things  that  nourish,  and  every  step  is 
ordered  by  a  knowledge  of  the  way.  To  cross 
deserts  in  endless  succession;  to  goad  reluctant 
oxen  to  their  task — skeleton  creatures  that  desire  to 
lie  down  and  die;  to  mount  the  rising  lanscapes  of 
stony  mesa  and  abutting,  barren  hill;  to  climb 
mountains  whose  formidable  escarpments  forbid 
progress,  and  whose  sharp  and  ragged  summits 
pierce  or  rend  tne  sky;  to  know  the  protracted  rage 
of  thirst  and  support  life  with  the  diseased  flesh 
cut  from  marrowless  bones;  to  lie  down  with  alac- 
rity, sleep  with  troubulous  dreams  and  rise  with 
languor  to  renew  the  hopeless  march;  to  know  the 
frame-sickness  of  famine  and  the  heart-sickness  of 
hope  deferred, — all  this  through  months  that  seem 
as  years; — to  emerge  at  length,  as  from  a  pilgrim- 
age of  wars,  harmless  spectres,  clothed  in  rags  and 
wearing  the  expression  of  those  who  have  seen 
strange  visions  and  have  communed  with  fears, — no 
fanciful  picture,  but  stern  reality  here,  feeble 
abridgement  of  sufferings  endured  by  the  "Argo- 
nauts of  Death  Valley." 

"The  Argonauts  of  Death  Valley." 
The  complete  record  of  their  names  is  not  avails 
ble  at  this  writing;  and  personal  reference  is,  for 
the  most  part,  to  those  who  are  still  among  the  liv 
ing.  The  survivors  of  the  Javhawks  were  young  in 
'49,  and  now  they  are  old.  The  Rev.  J.  W.  Brier 
died  in  Lodi,  California,  at  the  age  of  eighty-four 
years.  His  wife  is  ninety-eight  years  of  age,  and 
her  faculties  are  unimpaired.  Of  their  three  boys, 
respectively  four,  six  and  eight  years  of  age,  the 
author  of  this  narrative  alone  remains.  Col.  John  B. 
Colton,  of  Kansas  City,  and  Dow  Stephens,  of  San 
Jose,  were  mere  boys  when  they  shared  the  experi- 
ences of  the  desert.  John  Orosscup  lives  among  the 
Mendocino  hills,  and  has  a  lively  recollection  of  the 
events  that  crowd  this  brief  epitome. 

It  will  be  observed  that  the  parties  who  deferred 
the  inevitable  abandonment  of  their  wagons 
escaped  a  chapter  of  woes  by  beginning  a  long 
stage  east  of  the  Amargossa.  It  was  a  breaking-in 
stage — the  habit  of  walking  was  to  be  acquired,  and 
the  habit  of  eating  and  drinking  was  to  be  disci 
plined.  The  evening  of  arrival  at  the  dry  wash  of 
the  Amargossa  marked  the  second  day  of  enforced 
abstinence  from  water.  A  cloud  had  burst  on  the 
summit  of  Funeral  Mountain,  but  no  rain  had  fallen 
on  the  intervening  plain.  Along  its  margin  a  multi- 
tude of  dark  and  corrugated  rocks,  projecting  from 
the  sand,  obtruded  a  grotesque  feature;  but  they 
interested  the  mother  and  her  children,  because 
their  concavities  held  a  scant  collection  of  dew. 
This  was  industriously  ladeled  out  with  teaspoons, 


insufficiently,  AS  the  train  was  well  under  wa_\  and 
the  call  tor  haste  was  urgent.  The  day  ended  at 
midnight.  Far  in  t  he  rear  the  lftiiely  family 
I  nidged,  the  oxen  moaning,  and  the  children  crying 
for  drink.  When  the  camp  fires  began  to  glimmer  at 
the  base  of  Kuueral  Mountain,  two  good  Samaritans 
mel  l  he  laggards  witli  full  canteens  of  water  .lipped 
from  a  turbid  pool  left,  by  the  recent  deluge. 

Another  day  southward,  among  cobbles,  Imwlders 
and  jagged  rocks,  across  dry  ravines,  and  through 
jungles  of  grease  wood  and  sage,  brought  them  to 
a  bend  of  the  Amargossa,  where  pools  of  water 
were  found;  and  westward  from  (his  point,  a  pass 
invited  t"  the  mountainous  region  beyond.  The 
writer  does  not  recall  anything  more  cheerless  and 
repel  Ian t  than  this  gateway  to  the  nether  world. 
The  north  wind  swept  over  barren  hills,  "in  gusts 
of  doleful  sound."  No  good  thing  could  spring  from 
such  soil;  but  a  hollow  weed,  buliform,  mottled  with 
pale  red  and  faded  blue,  rattled  an  accompaniment 
to  the  moaning  and  whistling  of  the  blast.  The 
place  was  as  parched  as  the  tip  of  Dives'  tongue, 
and  the  canteens  were  empty.  Even  scrub  was 
denied,  so  that  the  oxen  were  without  food  or 
water.  Through  the  still,  clear  atmosphere  of  morn- 
ing, from  the  summit  of  a  lofty  peak,  Mr.  Brier 
discovered  an  oasis.  Green  and  inviting,  it  lay  at 
the  extremity  of  the  winding  pass,  on  the  brink  of 
a  vast  depression  three  hunured  feet  below  the  level 
of  the  sea.     This  was  Death  Valley. 

Ine  abutments  of  tne  Funeral  Range  obstructed 
vision  northward,  but  that  of  Panamint,  rising  to  a 
height  of  ten  thousand  feet,  increased  the  apparent 
depth  of  the  pit  and  suggested  its  great  extent.  It 
was  estimated  that  two  leagues  would  measure  the 
distance  to  the  springs.  In  the  desert,  all  atmos- 
pheric conditions  are  deceiving;  and  in  this  instance 
the  tortuous  trail  led  the  travelers  in  a  march  of 
forty-five  miles,  consuming  the  entire  day  and  more 
than  half  of  the  night.  ..t  was  not  remitted  for 
rest  or  refreshment,  and  to  describe  its  horrors 
would  be  to  paint  in  the  colors  of  the  Epic  Muse. 
History  must  content  itself  with  a  bare  recital, 
unless  it  would  invade  the  realm  of  poetry  and 
eclipse  the  xiomeric  fiction  of  "the  man  of  woes." 
Mr.  Brier  carried  his  youngest  the  last  six:  miles  of 
the  way,  and  some  of  the  exhausted  men  returned  to 
meet  and  cheer  the  belated  ones  in  their  struggle  for 
life. 

Christmas  in  Death  Valley. 

Midnight  gave  birth  to  the  anniversary,  dedicated 
by  Christian  nations,  to  festivity  and  mirth;  but  no 
thought  of  days  to  come,  or  dreams  of  former  hap- 
piness, disturbed  the  sleep  that  came  to  the  wayworn 
pilgrims,  the  moment  they  reclined  on  the  cool  and 
fragrant  sward  of  the  oasis.  Memories  were 
revived  with  the  dawn.  An  ox  was  slaughtered 
with  ostensible  regard  for  the  day,  but  in  reality  lo 
meet  a  pressing  want;  but  with  some  there  was  a 
grateful  sense  of  Divine  favor,  especially  in  effect- 
ing deliverance  from  the  last  and  greatest  peril. 
Complete  relaxation  was  possible  amid  surroundings 
singularly  attractive.  The  spacious  green,  shaded 
by  blooming  willows',  made  a  charming  picture, 
heightened  in  effect  by  the  blacks  and  grays  pre- 
dominant in  its  framing  of  naked  rock  and  sterile 
hill.  The  bubbling  and  murmuring,  the  rush  and 
swirl  of  waters,  and  the  croaking  of  frogs,  dissolved 
the  spell  silence  and  mystery  had  imposed.  The  day 
was  spent  in  luxurious  repose  and  many  long- 
deferred  ablutions  to  which  the  varying  tempera- 
ture of  the  springs  invited.  In  the  evening,  by 
request,  Mr.  Brier  delivered  a  reminiscent  dis- 
course, humorous  and  pathetic,  to  which  the  abor- 
igines may  have  listened  from  among  the  neighbor- 
ing rocks. 

Meantime  an  exploring  party  reconnoitered  the 
way  into  the  valley.  A  short  distance  from  the  camp 
they  came  upon  an  old  Indian,  buried  in  the  sand, 
only  his  head  visible.  Doubtless,  his  great  age  and 
total  blindness  rendering  him  incapable  of  flight, 
his  people,  panic  stricken  by  the  approach  of  the 
strangers,  hoped  thus  to  effect  his  safety.  Deep 
trails,  worn  or  cut  through  the  very  rocks  and  all 
converging  at  the  springs,  marked  the  region  as  an 
Indian  "resort;  but  of  wigwams,  there  were  none 
visible,  and  the  buried  patriarch  was  alone. 

The  trail  led  by  the  channel  of  Furnace  Creek — 
creek  by  courtesy  because,  though  not  of  peren- 
nial source,  after  a  storm  on  Funeral  Mountain  it 
flowed  full  to  its  banks.  Fretting  and  foaming  for 
a  space,  it  sunk  from  view  or  poured  a  slender 
tribute  iito  the  saline  swamp  beyond.  This  swamp 
or,  with  a  better  shading,  marsh,  was  merely  an  in- 
let. The  gulf  toward  which  it  expanded  was  fed  by 
rivulets  of  brine  and  a  considerable  stream  of 
much  the  same  character,  and  was  so  strong  in 
mineral  solutions  that  all  the  contributions  of  win- 
ter storm  and  summer  cloud-burst  could  not  freshen 
it.  Flowing  from  under  the  base  of  a  skirting  hill, 
shallow  floods  of  brine  deluged  the  way  and  spread 
over  the  corruscating  plain,  there  to  evaporate  and 
augment  the   undisturbed  accumulations  of  a   thou- 


sand years.     These  floods  the  trave  ■  !  d,  leav- 

ing at   muddy   intervals    footprints   that   were   not 
"effaced  for  half  a  score  of  years. 

At  length  the\  approached  the  Jayhawk  camp — 
a  desolate  s[i«»i  with  a  desolate  prospect  from  every 
point  of  outlook.  The  White  Mountains  gleamed 
just  above  the  northern  horizon,  the  FanarninU 
towered  in  stony  might,  of  grandeur  westward 
across  the  way,  while  Funeral  Mountain,  like  i 
huge  sarcophagus,  loomed  solemnly  against  the  altar 
of  the  rising  SNn.  Salt.  River  slipped  along  over  jts 
sandy  bed,  by  its  seeming  virtues  aggravating  the 
thirst  it  could  not  queue  h.  I  '.rowse  for  the  oxen 
was  scanty  and  here  it  had  an  ending.  Across 
twenty  miles  of  naked  dunes  the  way  was  laid  to  a 
mountain  pass,  above  which  Telescope  Peal*  stood 
like  a  lone  sentinel;  and  it  looked  towards  Mt. 
Whitney  and  the  Minarets.  At  this  camp  a  num 
ber  of  tho  party,  headed  by  Captain  Town,  an- 
nounced theii  determination  to  pack  their  backs 
and  push  for  the  Tulare  plains.  They  gave  some 
score  of  oxen  to  Mr.  Brier,  and  made  the  remnant 
of  their  flour  into  bread  for  the  journey.  Here  it 
was  strongly  urged  upon  the  Brier  family  to  remaiu 
at  the  Oasis  until  relief  could  be  obtained  from 
California.  The  proposition  was  promptly  vetoed 
by  Mrs.  Brier,  whose  gentle  and  patient  spirit  was, 
nevertheless,  of  the  heroic  type.  Moreover,  sug 
saw  at  a  glance  the  fatal  consequences  of  such  a 
choice.  Well-meaning  men  had,  after  their  blunder- 
ing fashion,  overlooked  the  possible  hostility  of  the 
natives,  and  the  certainty  that  they  would  plunder 
the  helpless  family  of  the  only  means  of  support. 
If,  however,  safety  from  violence  and  wrongs  had 
been  assured  and,  as  well,  the  continued  health  of 
the  family  head,  climatic  conditions  were  to  be 
reckoned  with;  for  it  was  entirely  certain  that 
within  a  few  months,  possibly  weeks,  an  attempt  to 
enter  the  valley  or  escape  from  it  would  have  been 
attended  with  the  greatest  danger. 

"The  Gun  Sight  Lode"   Legend. 

On  the  morning  of  December  27th  the  reunited 
company,  now  relieved  of  the  cumbrance  of  wagons, 
steered  their  course  for  Town's  Pass,  over  ever- 
drifting,  never-changing  billows  of  sand.  The  cold 
north  wind  blew  quartering  across  the  way,  driving 
the  fine  crystals  forcefully  into  face  and  eyes;  add 
to  this,  hunger  for  bread,  raging  thirst,  and  the 
difficulty  of  pursuing  refractory  cattle  among  the 
undulations  of  such  a  surface.  No  rest  short  of  the 
snow-line;  and  the  desert  behind  them,  it  yet  re- 
mained for  the  toilers  to  climb  the  dark,  rock- 
strewn  bluffs  and  bench-lands,  pressed  out,  seem- 
ingly, by  weight  of  the  superincumbent  mountain. 
Snow  lay  in  patches  not  far  above  the  spot  chosen 
for  a  camp;  and  quantities  of  it  were  brought 
down,  in  sheets,  to  be  melted  for  the  oxen.  Under 
other  circumstances,  the  panoramic  view  of  Death 
Valley  would  have  kindled  interest  in  sluggish 
minds,  and  quickened  sensibility  to  enthusiasm  or 
quelled  it  by  a  more  awful  emotion  of  the  sublime. 
The  vale  was  submerged  in  shadow,  the  day  flaunted 
its  signal  of  departure  from  the  crest  of  Funeral 
Mountain,  night  proclaimed  its  truce  to  the  wind, 
and  the  deep,  clear  heaven  of  violet,  with  its 
myriad  lights,  bent  low  over  a  wilderness  at  rest; 
all  this  unobserved  and  unheeded  by  the  wanderers, 
who  thought  only  of  the  morrow — what  rewards  it 
had  in  store  for  them,  or  what  severities  it  would 
inflict. 

First  of  all,  they  passed  over  a  belt  of  snow,  of 
which  the  oxen  greedily  ate;  then  opened  the  wind- 
ing passage  way,  walls,  high  and  ever  heightening 
on  either  side,  a  footing  of  sand,  or  jagged  rock, 
often  boulder-obstructed,  precipitating  leaps  of  dif- 
ficulty and  danger— a  long  trail  of  weary  longing 
and  rude  discouragement  of  hope!  A  sudden  emerg- 
ence brought  Mt.  Whitney  and  the  Minarets  into 
glorious  prominence.  The  former,  a  pyramid  of 
snow,  bourgeoned  in  sunset's  rosy  hues;  while  the 
latter,  like  the  flues  of  some  vast  furnace,  shot  up- 
ward to  the  height  of  nearly  two  thousand  feet  and 
shone  in  the  yellow  splendor  of  burnished  gold. 

The  bewildered  travelers  did  not  know  that  Wild 
Rose  Canyon  opened  a  little  way  beyond  them, 
affording  a  direct  route  to  Walker's  Pass.  They 
were  about  to  enter  the  Panamint  Desert  and  soon, 
at  its  northern  extremity,  they  went  into  camp, 
where  they  had  water  from  a  spring  and  their  oxen 
saw  the  color  and  tasted  the  flavor  of  grass.  There 
the  Town  party  reappeared,  having  climbed  Tele- 
scope Mountain  and  made  a  detour  involving  much 
labor  and  loss  of  time.  They  had  specimens  of  sil- 
ver ore,  some  of  virginal  purity,  and  one  of  which, 
afterward  shaped  into  a  sight  by  a  gunsmith  of 
Mariposa,  gave  currency  to  the  legend  of  "The  Gun 
Sight  Lode."  The  remarkable  discovery  has  never 
been  located,  though  for  years  the  search  was  un- 
remitting. From  this  point  the  Town  party  pro- 
ceeded westward,  entered  the  great  interior  plain 
by  Walker's  Pass,  and  thence  made  their  way  to 
the  southern  mines.  Town  himself  was  killed  some 
years  later  by  the  Tulare  Indians.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


June,    1911 


The  main  party  skirted  the  desert  southward,  fall- 
ing into  a  trail  that  led  them  to  an  Indian  village. 
Situated  among  mesquites  and  supplied  with  water 
by  an  abounding  spring,  this  collectioi  of  willow- 
woven,  thatch-covered  huts  had  a  cheerful  outside 
for  eves  long  accustomed  to  look  upon  an  uninhab- 
ited waste.  With  a  single  exception,  the  lodges  had 
been  vacated  in  haste.  An  old  squaw  alone  re- 
mained who,  from  the  doorway  of  her  hut,  scolded 
the  intruders  with  a  vehemence  that  could  not  be 
misunderstood.  Earthenware,  baskets,  bridles  and 
hair  ropes  were  much  in  evidence,  while  great; 
neaps  of  offal  and  the  bones  of  horses  betrayed  the 
preferences  and  predatory  habits  of  the  natives.  It 
was  their  custom  to  drive  animals  from  the  outly- 
ing ranges  of  Southern  California  and  slaughter 
them  in  this  desert  home.  A  spring-fed  pool  had 
been  escarped  and  screened  in  order  that  wild  fowl, 
attracted  in  their  flight  over  a  thirsty  land,  might 
be  easily  slain  with  the  silent  arrow.  This  was 
apparent  from  the  quantity  of  feathers  scattered  all 
about  the  place. 

After  a  short  rest  the  march  was  resumed,  ending 
for  the  day  at  a  spring  where  no  settlement  had 
been  made.  At  this  camp  another  small  party  de- 
cided that  the  outlook  was  good  for  a  quick  tramp, 
and  forthwith  set  about  their  preparations.  They 
alone  had  hoarded  a  small  quantity  of  flour,  the 
making  of  which  into  bread  consumed  the  early 
hours  of  the  night.  Many  remained  awake  to 
watch,  with  hungry  eyes,  the  interesting  process. 
One  young  man  offered  ten  dollars  for  a  biscuit,  and 
being  curtly  denied,  turned  sorrowfully  to  his  blan- 
kets. Certain  fag  ends  were  given  to  Mrs.  Brier — 
all  things  considered,  a  very  considerable  act  of 
self-denial — and  these  she  wrought  into  thirteen 
diminutive  rolls,  reserved  against  occasion  of  direst 
need. 

Horrors  of  the  Desert  March. 
'±he  eye  was  attracted  by  two  depressions  of 
the  western  range,  and  Mr.  Brier,  along  with  three 
others,  volunteered  to  investigate  them.  Two  re- 
ports following,  the  company — now  numbering 
something  above  forty — divided  for  the  passage,  on 
grounds  of  expediency.  They  who  chose  the  north- 
erly pass  encountered  great  difficulties,  but  were 
first  in  accomplishment,  while  the  others  were  for- 
tunate in  nothing,  and  most  unfortunate  in  the  loss 
of  two  of  their  number.  Nothing  in  the  annals  of 
desert  pilgrimage  could  greatly  exceed  the  horrors 
of  that  march.  The  first  stage — a  damp  tract  of 
sand,  covered  with  the  tracks  of  Indians  in  flight — 
was  succeeded  by  a  wider  area,  dry  and  drifting, 
upon  which  the  sun  burned  with  a  fierce  delight. 
Entrance  to  the  range  was  by  a  corridor,  whose  per- 
pendicular walls,  separated  by  a  narrow  space,  rose 
to  the  altitude  of  a  thousand  feet.  It  was  three 
miles  in  extent,  and  seemingly  drove  to  the  blood- 
less heart  of  the  mountain.  Its  level  floor  was 
paved  with  sand;  and  where  it  ended,  a  vast  slide, 
formidable  for  its  pitch,  foreclosed  the  view  and 
shut  the  travelers  in  for  the  night. 

For  some  distance  a'  slutchy  taint  had  advised 
them  of  the  proximity  of  water,  and  the  oxen  were 
first  to  take  the  scent  and  make  the  discovery.  It 
proved  to  be  a  barely  perceptible  drip  from  the 
base  of  the  closure — enough,  after  patient  waiting, 
to  make  coffee  for  the  evening  meal  of  jerk.  Dur- 
ing the  night,  two  of  the  oxen  escaped  and  aged  Mr. 
Fish,  who  had  long  been  an  object  of  solicitude, 
declared  his  inability  to  go  farther.  Two  young 
men  volunteered  to  go  in  pursuit  of  the  strays,  and 
a  third  to  care  for  the  old  man  until  their  return. 
The  larger  number,  scaling  the  acclivity,  made  all 
possible  speed  to  gain  the  summit  and  rejoin  their 
comrades  in  the  plain  beyond.  At  noon  they  en- 
tered a  narrow  defile  that,  with  ever-changing 
course  and  doubtful  certainty  of  way,  left  no  alter- 
native but  to  follow  where  the  torrent  had  torn 
for  itself  a  passage  at  a  time  when  the  summer  cloud- 
burst on  the  mountain  had  poured  a  deluge  along 
its  declivity.  It  was  a  wild  and  rugged  pathway, 
suggestive  of  foaming  rapids  and  roaring  cataracts, 
for  its  descent  was  frequently  abrupt  and  its  wind-* 
ings  interminable.  Narrows  through  which  an  ox 
could  squeeze  with  difficulty — six,  and  even  ten- 
foot  perpendiculars  he  would  only  take  by  forcing — 
and  vast  promontories  that  persisted,  in  infinite 
succession,  to  shut  away  the  prospect  and  obscure 
the  light,  are  features  that  are  vividly  recalled  and, 
along  with  them,  the  hunger  and  thirst  that  made 
them  intolerable. 

When  the  end  was  reached  in  open  day,  the  sun 
had  nearly  finished  his  course,  but  the  glory  of  his 
setting  was  not  on  mountain  summit  and  pinaeles  of 
snow,  but  rather  on  the  bosom  of  a  vast,  uplifted 
sea,  whose  farther  horizon  was  of  carmine  and  Ver- 
million, passing,  by  insensible  degrees,  into  orange 
and  gold,  the  hither  shore  washed  by  transparency 
of  ceruiean  and  a  margin  of  glittering  white.  There, 
too,  was  the  silvan  border  of  blue,  tipped  with 
ashes  of  roses,  its  back-lands  faintly  suggestive  of 
emerald.  The  desert  itself  was  transformed  almost 
to  the  foot-line  of  the  slope  on  which  the  travelers 


stood.  The  first  lesson  of  enchantment  had  been 
forgotten;  and  the  eyes  that  had  seen  a  vision  of 
equal  splendor  fade,  expressed  the  joy  a  conviction 
of  reality  alone  can  inspire. 

One  tires  of  writing  about  yielding  sand  and  im- 
peding serub,  so  effectual  in  stretching  distance 
and  consuming  strengtu^and  time.  The  waterless, 
desolate  plain  upon  which  the  pilgrims  entered  lay 
in  the  gloaming,  but  half  of  the  night  was  gone 
when  they  halted  on  the  shore  of  a  shallow,  briny 
pool,  now  dignified  by  the  name  of  "Borax  Lake.'1 
While  yet  treking  the  desert,  they  were  cheered  by 
the  camp-fires  of  the  men  from  whom  they  had 
parted  two  days  before;  but  the  greeting  was  sad- 
dened by  the  report  that  no  water  had  been  found. 
Early  in  the  day  the  search  was  renewed  and  pros- 
ecuted for  miles  m  every  direction,  but  with  no  suc- 
cess. One  by  one  the  tired  men  returned  to  await 
the  inevitable.  While  some  were  distracted,  the 
greater  number  tried  manfully  to  conceal  their  dis- 
tress. Mrs.  Brier  retired  to  the  shadow  of  a  great 
rock  to  pray,  and  when  she  returned,  upbraided 
them  for  their  want  of  faith.  While  she  was  yet 
declaring  her  certainty  that  deliverance  would 
come,  ''Deacon"  Richards  bounded  into  the  circle, 
shouting,  ''Water!  Water!  I  have  found  water!" 
Four  miles  away,  hidden  close  in  at  the  base  of  the 
mountain,  was  a  clear  brook  that  ran  for  a  space 
and  sank  out  of  view  in  the  desert  sand.  The  heroic 
discoverer  had  not  been  willing  to  spare  time  for 
the  slaking  of  his  own  thirst,  or  even  to  look  upon 
the  stream.  He  heard  the  music  of  its  flow,  and 
remembered  the  woman  and  her  children.  There 
was  bustle  in  that  camp,  and  within  the  hour  men 
who  had  resigned  themselves  to  die  found  a  new 
joy  in  living — so  quickly  do  fading  images  renew 
themselves,  so  certainly  does  Hope  revive  and 
weave  threads  of  gold  into  the  melancholly  texture 
of  her  song! 

Long   Journey  Nearing  End. 

It  had  been  noted  that  young  Isham  was  not  of 
the  number  who  arrived  during  the  night.  Dead  or 
alive,  he  was  still  on  the  desert,  and  a  search  party 
was  immediately  despatched.  His  lifeless  body  was 
touud  by  following  the  impressions  left  by  his 
hands  and  knees  for  a  distance  of  four  miles.  For 
the  second  time,  the  desert  enforced  its  claim  on  the 
Culverwell  party,  the  Captain  himself  having  sur- 
rendered far  back,  beyond  the  Amargossa.  Isham 
was  buried  where  he  lay,  and  his  watch,  with  arti- 
cles likely  to  be  prized  by  his  relatives,  were  given 
in  trust  to  Mr.  Brier,  who  afterwards  delivered 
tiem  to  the  brother  of  the  deceased.  In  the  mean- 
time, the  men  who  had  remained  with  Mr.  Fish 
came  into  camp,  more  dead  than  alive,  reporting 
that  they  had  left  him  on  the  trail,  almost  immedi- 
ately at  the  point  of  starting.  By  clinging  to  the 
tail  of  an  ox,  he  had  managed  to  scale  the  accliv- 
ity, but  there  he  rell,  his  spirit  broken  and  his 
strength  utterly  expended.  Succor  reached  the  spot 
too  late  to  avail;  indeed,  it  is  probable  that  the  old 
man  had  passed  witu  the  day.  He,  too,  was  of  the 
Culverwell  mess  and,  like  his  comrades  of  kindred, 
melancholy  fate,  was  held  in  mournful  memory  by 
all  who  knew  him.  Stones  were  piled  about  him  for 
a  coffin,  and  raised  above  him  for  a  monument ; 
and  thus  he  was  left  alone — none  more  so — not 
likely  to  be  disturbed,  by  man  or  beast,  in  the  deep 
silence  of  his  stony  sleep. 

The  stream  so  opportunely  discovered  by  "Dea- 
con" Richards,  haa  its  pise  in  a  spring  not  far 
above  -je  camp.  There,  on  a  level  of  inconsider- 
able area,  the  Indians  had  built  their  huts,  but  to 
the  same  enterprising  Richards,  who  treated  him- 
self and  them  with  a  genuine  surprise,  they  were 
only  visible  in  flight.  It  is  worth  while  to  record 
that  the  water  to  which  the  Jayhawks  owed  their 
lives  is  now  known  by  the  suggestive  name  of 
•  ■  Providence  Springs. ' ' 

±he  range  that  separated  Borax  Lake  from  the 
^.iojave  Desert  was  not  formidable,  as  it  was  tra- 
versed by  a  branching  pass  long  used  by  the  natives 
in  their  plundering  expeditions  coastward.  Well- 
worn  trails  made  going  easy,  and  a  sufficient  spring 
awaited  on  the  Mojave  side.  The  only  sensation  of 
the  passage  was  occasioned  by  the  temporary  loss  of 
a  boy  who  had  taken  the  wrong  trail  where  the  can- 
yon divided.  He  corrected  his  mistake  in  time,  and 
was  met  by  his  agitated  parents,  driving  his  oxen 
and  whistling  in  absolute  unconcern. 

The  Mojave  L\esert  is  wide,  and  even  bladders 
were  put  in  requisition  for  the  transportation  of 
water.  For  a  space,  the  course  lay  through  a  forest 
of  dagger  palms,  attaining  great  altitude  for  their 
kind,  and  displaying  an  unusual  wealth  of  foliage; 
but,  singularly,  did  not  impart  that  cheer  to  the 
landscape  their  color,  at  least,  would  seem  to  ani- 
mate. To  the  traveler  in  a  weary  land,  there  can  be 
nottung  to  engage  the  mind  in  pleasing  contempla- 
tion, nothing  to  bring  content,  where  water  does 
not  spring  or  flow.  There  is  no  joy  in  plants  that 
spring  where  tiiere  is  no  water.  They  only  confirm 
the  impression  of  sterility,  and  are  hateful  because 


they  flourish  where  life-sustaining  vegetation  can- 
not live.  The  march  across  the  Mojave  Desert  was 
attended  with  great  suffering  and,  after  eleven 
months  of  pilgrimage,  all  must  have  perished  but  for 
the  fortunate  location  of  Indian  Wells.  From  this 
point,  southward,  it  is  fifty  miles  to  the  Mojave 
Station.  Thitherward,  over  a  trackless,  arid  waste, 
the  journey  was  renewed,  but  far  east  from  the 
present  line  of  travel,  and  oy  deviating  courses 
that  greatly  increased  the  distance.  No  water  was 
found  in  all  the  way.  Famine  and  fatigue  had 
nearly  done  their  work.  The  oxen  were  mere  skel- 
etons; once  vigorous  men,  young,  inured  to  hard- 
ship and  disciplined  by  toil  and  danger,  had  no 
more  strength  than  the  pale,  attenuated  woman, 
and  the  three  shadows  of  childhood  who  plodded  at 
her  side. 

The  outcome  was  precisely  where  the  Southern 
Pacific  enters  the  inlet  of  approach  to  its  mountain 
crossing.  There  muddy  pools  were  encountered,  and 
presently,  a  remarkable  well  of  the  desert,  whose 
depth  could  not  be  ascertained,  'rue  long  journey 
was  nearing  its  end.  Nature  had  heaved  a  mighty 
breastwork  against  the  encroaching  sand,  and  it  was 
touched  with  green.  This  complexion  of  renewing 
youth,  ' '  soft  amenity ' '  of  the  air,  and  the  faint, 
though  certain  intimation  of  fragrance,  must  have 
been  convincing  to  men  who  were  not  enfeebled  in 
intellect  and  benumbed  in  sensibility.  The  "Argo- 
nauts of  Death  Valley,"  aroused  to  enthusiasm  by 
an  optical  illusion,  always  awaiting  the  improbable 
and  calculating  upon  surprises,  either  failed  to  rec- 
ognize the  tokens  of  deliverance  or  noted  them 
with  apathy.  Only  when  they  were  received  to  na- 
tive hospitality,  amid  charms  that  bewildered  judg- 
ment and  captivated  sense,  did  the  current  of  true 
feeling  begin  to  surge  in  its  customary  channels. 

At  the  last  camp  on  the  desert  side,  two  events, 
sudden  and  unexpected,  added  grief  and  horror  to 
depression.  As  the  travelers  advanced  toward  the 
hill  line  that  curved  with  the  spacious  inlet  of  the 
plain,  they  saw  wild  men  of  the  regions  already 
traversed  in  the  act  of  rounding  up  horses  for  one 
of  their  customary  drives.  The  whirlwind  activity 
of  the  drivers,  and  the  frenzied  efforts  of  the  herd, 
threw  the  oxen  into  a  panic,  causing  them  to  stam- 
pede in  every  direction.  Some  of  tnem  were  not 
recovered,  and  presumably  were  taken  by  the  sav- 
ages, who  also  surrounded  and  captured  a  French- 
man in  ardent  pursuit  of  the  ox  that  was  loaded 
with  his  effects.  The  unfortunate  captive  was  not 
released  from  a  most  unhappy  servitude  before  the 
expiration  of  fourteen  years.  The  same  day,  Mr. 
Robinson  was  assisted  from  his  horse  and  borne  to 
a  pallet,  where  he  presently  expired.  Like  the 
rrophet  of  Israel,  he  was  claimed  by  the  wilderness, 
on  tue  very  threshold  of  the  Promised  Land;  and 
t^e  men  at  whose  hands  he  received  burial  could  not 
be  certain  of  an  entrance,  as  they  were  all  afflicted 
with  the  malady  that,  suddenly — as  in  his  ease — 
reaches  its  fatal  stage. 

Hospitable  Welcome  at  Rancho  de  San  Francisq.uito. 

Before  closing  a  long  chapter  of  woes,  it  may  be 
well  to  note,  in  general,  the  effect  of  so  protracted 
a  journey — a  journey  in  which  no  manna  lay  like 
hoar  frost  about  the  camps,  no  timely  bevies  afford- 
ed delicious  repast  and  quelled  the  rage  of  famine, 
no  rod-smitten  rock  yielded  miraculous  waters  to 
quench  the  fever  of  thirst.  Thirtj'-eight  men  re- 
duced to  skeleton  weight,  afflicted  with  dysentery, 
still  wearing  tneir  rags  with  much  of  dignity  and 
self-respect,  the  great  courage  native  to  them  in 
no  jot  or  tittle  abated;  one  woman  clad  in  garments 
worn,  torn  and  tattered,  gentle,  resolute  and  brave, 
devoutly  loved  and  cherished  by  her  own,  idolized 
by  all,  for  whom  few  in  that  company  would  not 
have  cheerfully  laid  down  their  lives;  three  chil- 
dren, wan,  large-eyed  and  patient,  whose  shreds 
bore  witness  to  the  cruelty  of  the  desert  scrub,  and 
whose  patches  attested  the  self-sacrificing  care  of 
watchful,  tender  motherhood;  some  two  score  of 
oxen — Mr.  Brier's  herd  had  been  reduced  from 
twenty-three  to  seven — in  whose  bones  blood  and 
water  had  taken  the  place  of  marrow,  and  whose 
fibrous  flesh  had  been  wrung  of  the  substance  that 
nourishes  and  the  flavor  that  satisfies.  Such  was 
the  spectacle  destined,  shortly,  to  appear  like  an 
apparition  before  the  wondering  eyes  of  the  natives 
of  California. 

It  was  the  first  day  of  February  when  the  trav- 
elers, near  the  head  waters  of  the  Santa  Clara, 
began  their  descent  to  the  lands  that  border  on  the 
sea.  Their  trail  followed  the  winding  course  of 
that  stream,  into  prospects  that  visibly  brightened 
with  every  league.  Grass  became  plentiful  and  the 
cattle  began  to  lick  their  sides  and  give  voice  to 
their  new-found  happiness.  It  was  delightful  once 
more  to  look  upon  trees  native  to  a  better  soil  and

(COMPILED  FOR  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAR  BY  THOMAS  R.  JONES.) 


HE  FIRST  WEEK  OF  JUNE,  L861, 
gave  the  northern  and  central  sec 
tions  of  the  State  the  unusual  ex 
perience  of  heavy  thunder  and  bail 
storms.  The  grape  crop  in  Calaveras 
and  other  counties  wan  damaged  to 
such  an  extenl  that  one  third  was  con 
sidered  lost.  Cherries  were  splil  on 
'  ■•yi  tiu-    trees    in    large   quanl  ities,    and 

M;t  strawberries     ni'iv     jmt     out     of     the 

market.  Then  followed  a  plague  of 
grasshoppers.  From  Tehama  County 
on  the  uorth  to  Tulare  County  on  the  south,  the  in- 
sects appeared  in  different  localities  in  Buch  myriads 
that  vegetation  disappeared  in  a  few  hours  after 
their  advent.  It  was  fortunate  that  they  did  not 
cover  I  he  whole  landscape  and  that  only  in  widely 
separated  localities  did  they  come  out  of  the  ground 
to  make  hai >f  everything  green  and  growing. 

Quail  in  Mariposa  County  were  reported  so  nu- 
merous as  to  he  a  nuisance  and  a  menace  to  -the 
gardens  and  orchards  there,  and  efforts  were  being 
Diade  to  reduce  their  numbers  by  poisoning. 

Cattle  were  on  a  slumping  market.  J.  B.  French 
had  :i  drove  of  300  American  steers  in  Santa  Clara 
County  which  he  sold  at  $9  a  head.  Spanish  cattle 
were  being  sold  for  $0  a  head.  Several  thousand 
head  in  the  southern  tier  of  counties  were  being 
slaughtered  for  their  hides.  Banning  &  Company, 
at  Jian  Pedro,  uos  Angeles  County,  were  slaughter- 
ing 2i)n   head   a   uay   for  that  purpose. 

The  country  appears  to  nave  been  overrun  with 
livestock.  American  cows  that  a  few  years  previ- 
ous were  selling  at  $100  were  now  being  sold  for  $15 
a  head.  A  oik  of  several  hundred  sheep  were  on 
Bale  :it  Sacramento  for  two  days  without  finding  a 
single  bidder  and  had  to  be  driven  back  to  pasture. 
A  consignment  of  five  French  Merino  bucks,  im- 
ported  by  steamer,  sold  in  Tehama  County  for 
$1500.  One  of  the  bucks  sheared  a  fleece  weighing 
twenty  nine  and  une-forth  pounds. 

There  was  a  crop  shortage  in  many  counties,  due 
to  lack  of  rain  in  April,  so  that  stock  raising  and 
agricultural  interests  were  not  in  a  very  flourishing 
condition. 

War   News   Stirs   Populace, 
news   from    the   seat  of   the   Civil    War  grew 


Tlu 


more  exciting  each  day  and  kept  the  feelings  of  the 
public  in  a  state  of  alarm  and  emotion  that  was  be- 
mil:  manifested  in  many  different  ways.  The  forma- 
tion of  Union  Clubs  went  steadily  on.  Col.  Lippitt 
was  organizing  the  first  a.  rfornia  regiment,  and 
uavmg  offere.,  its  services  to  the  Government,  was 
awaiting  orders  to  be  mustered  in.  Owing  to  the 
distance  and  expense  of  transportation  to  the  East  it 
was  ox] mt tod  the  Government  would  not  take  the 
regiment  East,  but  assign  it  to  frontier  duty. 

.military  companies  were  being  organized  in  all 
the  important  towns,  drilling  daily,  and  flag  presen- 
tations by  the  women  were  the  order  of  the  day. 
The  raising  of  flag  poles  and  unfurling  of  flags  of 
large  size  therefrom  was  being  made  the  cause  of 
|i;it  i  antic  celebrations  in  many  towns.  Iowa  Hall 
had  a  liberty  pole  celebration  on  June  1st  that  ex- 
ceeded anything  of  the  celebration  kind  that  had 
ever  taken  place  there,  colonel  Swartout,  a  veteran 
of  76  years  and  the  oldest  man  in  the  town,  pulled 
the  flag  up  to  its  place. 

North  San  Juan  had  a  flag  raised  that  was  28x42 
feet  in  dimensions.  Cumberland,  a  town  of  Sierra 
County,  paid  $250  for  a  flag  20x40  feet.  Birchville. 
Nevada  County,  raised  a  pole  220  feet  high  and 
bought  a  flag  20x30  feet  to  float  from  it.  The  flag 
at  Selby  Flat  was  stolen  at  night  and  a  reward  of 
touU  was  offered  for  its  recovery  and  the  arrest  of 
the  thief.  Alleghanytown,  Sierra  County,  raised  a 
flag  28x40  feet.  Colusa,  on  June  6th,  had  a  great 
flag  raising  celebration  with  State  Senator  C.  E.  De 
Lona  of  Yuba  County  as  the  orator  of  the  day. 

Los  Angeles  raised  a  flag  to  float,  over  its  new 
court  house  and  had  a  demonstration  that  was  par- 
ticipated in  by  the  military  and  all  the  civic  asso- 
ciations and  representatives  of  the  clergy,  bench  and 
bar.  It  was  read  of  with  great  satisfaction  by  the 
Union  people  of  the  State,  as  reports  had  been  in 
circulation  that  a  majority  of  the  Los  Angeles 
population  were  Secession  sympathizers. 

A  Union  ball  was  given  at  Piatt's  Hall,  San 
Francisco,  on  June  T  7th,  at  which  no  woman  was 
admitted  whose  dress  was  not  made  of  red,  white 
and  blue  material  or  trimmed  with  the  national  col- 
ors. 

n  Senator  Latham  continued  during  the  first  part  of 
the  month  to  deliver  Union  speeches  in  different 
towns  of  the  State  and  did  very  effective  work  in 
the  cause. 

The  news  of  the  killing  of  Col.  E.  Ellsworth  while 
taking  down  a  rebel  flag  in  Alexandria,  Virginia,  on 


May   24th,   w;jn   received    by    Pony    Bxpress  of  June 

6th  ami  caused  groat  sorrow.  Flags  were  placed  :i ' 
halfmasl  on  nearly  every  nagstatV  in  the  cities  and 
towns,   and    a    strong    feeling  of    resentment    l.egan   to 

a  waken, 

Douglas'  Death  Much  Regretted. 
The  news  of  Senator  Stephen   &..   I  'oug las '  death 
on  June  3rd  was  received  by  Pony  Express  on  June 

L6th,  and  was  another  cause  of  grief  to  the  Union 
men.  for  Senator  Douglas  had  declared  himself  :is 
being  loyal  to  the  Union  and  was  expected  to  be 
a  tower  of  strength  to  President  Lincoln's  adminis- 
tration in  Suppressing  the  rebellion  or  bringing 
about  an  agreement  for  peace  and  the  adjustment  of 
the  differences  causing  the  war.  His  public  utter 
ances  were  listened  to  and  read  by  a  larger  number 
of  people  who  were  influenced  by  them,  than  those 
of  any  otner  man  prominent  in  public  life.  His 
deatn  was  most  inopportune  for  the  wing  of  the 
1  democratic  party  in  this  State  that  had  espoused 
his  candidacy  for  the  presidential  office  and  un- 
doubtedly had  a  potent  influence  in  the  coming  polit- 
ical campa.gn  in  weakening  it  and .  strengthening 
the  Republican  party. 

Skirmishing  and  minor  engagements  between  the 
federal  and  the  rebel  soldiers  were  being  reported 
as  taking  place  in  Virginia  and  the  border  states, 
and  a  battle  was  expected  to  occur  in  a  few  days 
at  Manassas  Junction,  not  many  miles  from  Wash 
ington,  that  might  possibly  decide  the  fate  of  the 
Southern  Confederacy.  These  reports,  coming  as 
flashes  by  Pony  Express  and  later  confirmed  by 
overland  and  steamer  mail,  kept  the  public  keyed 
up  to  a  state  of  great  nervous  excitement.  Numer- 
ous altercations  between  Union  men  and  Southern 
sympathizers  were  occurring,  a  number  of  which  re- 
sulted in  fatal  shooting  and  cutting  affrays. 

A  prospective  duel  between  Judge  W.  W.  Porter 
of  Calaveras  County  and  Henry  G.  Worthington  of 
San  Francisco,  both  prominent  citizens  of  the  State, 
excited  San  Francisco  for  several  days.  Wr.  Worth- 
ington was  overheard  by  Judge  Porter  to  make  a 
remark  he  considered  derogatory  of  Southern  men 
as  soldiers,  and  resented  it,  with  the  final  result  that 
Mr.  Worthington  felled  Judge  Porter  with  a  blow 
upon  the  head  from  a  cane.  Judge  Porter  challenged 
Mr.  Worthington  to  fight  a  duel  and  named  as  his 
seconds  J.  F.  Quinn  and  Judge  D.  S.  Terry.  The 
challenge  was  accepted  and  Win.  G.  Morris  and  J.  E. 
Nuttman  were  named  as  seconds  for  Mr.  Worth- 
ington. Rifles  at  forty  paces  and  other  conditions 
were  agreed  upon,  but  as  Mr.  Worthington  's  seconds 
insisted  on  the  duel  being  fought  in  San  Francisco 
County  and  Judge  Porter's  seconds  claimed  they 
would  be  lynched  if  there  was  a  fatal  ending  to  the 
duel  if  fought  in  that  county,  the  affair  was  called 
off  and  the  ridiculousness  of  the  so-called  code  of 
honor  again  shown  up. 

It  was  reported  that  General  Albert  Sydney  John- 
son, late  commander  of  the  U.  S.  troops  at  San 
Francisco,  was  to  leave  Los  Angeles  with  a  company 
of  185  men  to  join  the  army  of  the  Southern  Con- 
federacy. General  Johnson  was  a  year  afterwards 
killed  at  the  battle  of  Pittsburg  Landing,  where  he 
was  a  commander  of  the  Confederate  army.  An- 
other report  that  caused  much  commotion  was  a 
rumor  that  a  Confederate  army  was  being  organ- 
ized in  Texas  to  march  into  Southern  California 
and  there  begin  the  conquest,  of  this  State.  The 
women  of  San  Francisco  formed  a  sewing  circle  to 
sew  for  the  California  volunteers. 

Many  Engaged  in  Politics. 

Politics  during  this  month  was  the  avocation  of 
a  large  part  of  the  prominent  citizens  of  the  State. 
Primary  elections,  and  county  conventions  of  the 
three  political  parties  then  contending  for  suprem- 
acy were  being  held  in  all  the  counties  of  the 
State  and  a  large  part  of  the  adult  male  popula- 
tion were  candidates  for  state  and  county  offices. 
The  Breckenridge  wing  of  the  Democratic  party 
held  a  state  convention  at  Sacramento  on  June 
11th.  It  wrangled  a  eouple  of  days  over  a  plat 
form,  trying  to  express  in  the  English  language 
opposition  to  coercive  measures  on  the  part 
of  the  Government  against  the  seceding  states  and 
at  the  same  time  avoiding  a  positive  expression  of 
approval  of  secession.  The  nomination  for  gov- 
ernor was  tendered  to  Governor  Downey,  who  was 
then  in  Los  Angeles,  and  he  declined  the  honor. 
Having  no  available  person  in  sight  to  take  the 
honor  the  convention  adjourned  to  July  23rd  with- 
out making  any  nominations.  As  there  were  only 
about  half  the  elected  delegates  present,  and  most 
of  these  were  known  to  be  Southern  sympathizers, 
the  prospects  of  the  party  did  not  look  bright. 

The  Republican  state  convention  was  called  to 
meet  in  Sacramento  on  June  ISth.  The  Lincoln 
administration    had    been    making   appointments   to 


t  he  federa  I  positions  Bince  I  he  tth  oJ  March. 
Leland  Stanford  had  been  in  Washington;  and  as 
he  bad  been  the  Republican  candidate  for  governor 

:il     the    previous    election,    his    influence    with    the 
presidenl    was   con  idered    paramount  and   man-.     ,i 
the  appointments  made  were  accredited   to   hi     pet 
sonal  influence.    Therefore,  a     ;  he  1  Lme  for  i  he  con 
vention  drew  near  and  the  holding  of  primaries  was 
ordered,   the  (*Outa"— as  those  who   had  failed  to 
gel    appointments   were   termed — began   to   organize 
against    Mr.   Stanford's  aspirations   to   the    nomina 
t  ion    for   governor    on    the    Republican    ticke 
supported    T.    U-,     Phelps,    then    a    stalwart    ph 
and    mental    giant    leading    a    semi -political    1 
life  in  San   Mateo  County. 

The  "Ins,"  supporting  Mr.  Stanford,  made  the 
primary  elections  of  the  Republican  party  in  San 
Francisco  and  Sacramento  memorable  political  con 
tests,  and,  for  a  new  party,  it  was  claimed  they 
were  up  to  all  the  old,  and  invented  a  few  new 
tricks  to  carry  their  ticket  to  victory.  Not  only 
was  it  claimed  that  the  adherents  of  the  "Ins" 
voted  early  and  as  often  as  they  wanted,  but  even 
well  known  Secessionists  were  called  on  to  aid  the 
contesting  parties  and  were  allowed  to  vote  unchal- 
lenged. The  noise  and  disturbance  of  the  primary- 
were  carried  into  the  county  conventions,  but  the 
state  convention,  when  it  met  at  Sacramento  on 
June  18th,  was  a  harmonious  gathering,  enthusi 
astie  in  its  support  of  the  Lincoln  administration; 
determined  to  put  its  best  men  in  nomination  and 
make  an  aggressive  campaign. 

There    were    over    250    delegates    in    attendance. 

A.  A.  Sargent  of  Nevada  County  was  elected  presi- 
dent, and  a  two-days'  session  held.  The  convention 
nominated  the  following  ticket:  Leland  Stanford 
of  Sacramento,  Governor;  J.  T.  Chellis  of  Trinity, 
-Lieutenant-Governor;  T.  G.  Sargent  of  Nevada, 
Congressman;  Edward  Norton  of  San  Francisco, 
Judge  of  the  Supreme  Cout;  G.  R.  Warren  of  San 
Joaquin,  Controller;  D.  R.  Ashley  of  Monterey, 
Treasurer;  F.  F.  Fargo  of  Alameda,  Clerk  Supreme 
Court;  J.  F.  Houghton  of  Solano,  Survevor-General; 

B.  P.  Avery  of  Yuba,  State  Printer;  F.  M.  Pixley  of 
San  Francisco,  Attorney-General.  It  was  said  that, 
while  the  convention  did  not  number  as  many  fluent 
orators  as  the  Breckenridge  convention,  it  had 
more  speakers  who  could  hit  the  nail  on  the  head 
with  the  use  of  plain  English  than  any  convention 
heretofore   convened. 

An  attempt  to  organize  a  Union  party,  composed 
of  those  who  were  opposed  to  the  ultra  views  of  the 
Republicans  and  the  Secession  principles  of  the 
Breckenridge  Democrats,  lacked  the  necessary  vital 
ity  to  make  it  a  factor,  and  it  languished  for  the 
want    of  a   sustaining  enthusiasm. 

Gold  Production   Shows  Increase. 

The  mining  industry  was  in  a  good  condition  and 
the  production  of  gold  was  greater  than  it  had 
been  for  some  time. 

Virginia  City  was  reported  as  having  the  richest 
and  poorest  people,  combined?  in  each  individual,  of 
any  place  on  the  coast.  Nearly  every  man  of  high 
aspirations  had  a  null  ion  in  sight  in  mines  and 
stocl; s.  but  not  a  dollar  in  coin  to  buy  a  week 's 
grub. 

There  was  a  mining  excitement  on  Old  Woman's 
Gulch,  Calaveras  County,  that  attracted  several 
hundred  prospectors.  A  buried  gravel  channel  had 
been  found  130  feet  below  the  surface  that  was 
paying  $20  a  day  to  the  man.  and  it  was  believed, 
to  be  a  continuation  of  the  rich  Chili  Gulch  chan- 
nel. Claims  were  being  located  in  the  direction  it 
was  supposed  to  lay. 

In  Arbuckle  Gulch,  near  Forbestown,  Shasta 
County,  three  men  took  out  over  $1000  in  gold 
dust  in  three  days. 

At  Smith's  Plat,  Trinity  County,  Dolittle  and 
Wales  dug  out  sixty  ounces  in  eight  days. 

A  claim  on  Buckeye  Hill,  near  Red  Dog,  owned 
by  a  miner  named  Mallory.  yielded  $311  in  two 
pans  of  dirt. 

Morrow  &  id.,  iiyilraulicking  at  Gold. Flat,  Nevada 
County,  cleaned  up  $15,000  after  a  two-weeks'  run. 

At  Jenny  Lind.  Calaveras  County,  the  four-year- 
old  son  of  a  miner  named  Neely  was  taken  to  his 
father's  claim  to  spend  a  few  hours,  and  while 
playing  at  mining  uncovered  a  three-ounce  nugget 
worth  over  $50. 

The  Excelsior  Co..  near  Berryessa  Valley,  in  Napa 
County,  had  found  two  ledges  of  cinna.bar  3000 
feet  in  length,  carrying  a  large  percentage  in 
quicksilver,  and  was  developing  them  as  rapidly  as 
possible. 

Geo.  E.  Smith  found  in  a  mining  claim  at  Chero- 
kee Ravine.  Butte  County,  a  diamond  valued  at  $20, 
This  was  the  second  diamond  found  in  that  vicinity.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR

(Written  for  The  Grizzly  Bear  by  MARTHA  JANE  GARVIN,  Santa  Cruz.) 


Al)  ONE  THE  DESCRIPTIVE  GE- 
nius  of  a  Scott,  even  so,  words  in  a 
short  magazine  article  could  repre- 
sent only  a  puny  effort  in  handling 
the  subject  in  question — a  subject 
large,  in  the  broadest  sense  of  the 
word.  The  world-famous  grove  of 
royal  redwoods,  known  as  The  Fre- 
mont Grove  of  Big  Trees,  is  located 
on  the  east  side  of  the  San  Lorenzo 
River,  in  the  Santa  Cruz  Mountains, 
five  miles  from  the  sea  coast.  The 
canyon  of  the  San  Lorenzo  is  noted  because  of  Big 
Trees,  though  as  well  for  the  sublime  scenery  of 
forest-covered  mountain;  the  incomparable  wagon 
road  that  semicircles  the  numerous  steep  ridges  of 
mountain  and  ravine;  and  the  scenic  railway — look- 
ing not  unlike  a  narrow  metal ic  ribbon  fluttering 
around  the  undulating  walls  of  canyon  or  skirting 
the  boulder ed  banks  of  the  rushing  San  Lorenzo, 

In  this  grove,  proper,  there  are  about  fifty  of 
these  forest  monarchs  whose  girths  measure  from 
thirty  to  sixty-five  feet,  while  their  tops  reach  into 
the  sky  to  the  height  of  from  two  to  three  hundred 
feet.  One,  "The  Giant,"  the  king  of  this  realm  of 
wonderland,  rears  himself  a  sheer  three  hundred  and 
ten  feet  toward  the  zenith,  and  his  towering  green 
crown  can  be  distinguished  from  all  the  others  for

miles  up  or  down  the  canyon.  Another,  "General 
Fremont,"  claims  especial  notice  from  the  fact  that 
the  immense  hollow  base  of  the  mighty  shaft  gave 
shelter,  in  the  early  days,  to  the  illustrious  old 
pathfinder,  and  when  "The  Fleet"  anchored  in 
Monterey  Bay,  seventy-five  sailors  stood,  at  one 
time,  in  this  hollow  shelter. 

As  the  guide  shows  one  about  this  sun-dappled 
pavilion  of  Nature's  handiwork,  he  gives  a  short 
talk  on  each  mighty  column,  telling  of  its  height, 
diameter  and  circumference;  its  age,  as  estimated 
by  science;  the  peculiarities  of  growth,  many 
of  which  are  due  to  fires  in  past  ages.  Each  old 
giant's  name  is  given,  together  with  the  identity  of 
the  party  for  whom  it  has  been  named,  also  with 
other  interesting  data. 

A  more  than  special  charm  of  the  redwood  is  its 
harmony  in  color;  the  fibrous  bark — patterned  on 
vertical  lines — being  of  a  ruddy  brown  hue,  while 
the  foliage,  a  dull  green,  is  also  tinged  with  red. 
One  marked  characteristic  in  which  is  shown  the 
redwood's  great  tenacity  of  life  is  that,  where  a 
tree  has  been  felled  or  something  has  occurred  to 
retard  its  growth,  a  family  of  saplings,  like  chil- 
dren, hover  around  the  parent  stump  or  maimed 
tree.  "The  Cathedral,"  a  group  of  nine  trees  on 
this  order,  sets  forth  this  distinguishing  feature  of 
the  many  scarred  veterans  of  antiquity.  And  one 
tree,  having  succumbed  to  a  heavy  wind  a  few 
years  since,  has  numerous  little  trees  sprouting 
along  the  apparently  lifeless  trunk. 

When  the  fact — deduced  by  scientists — is  consid- 
ered that  the  existence  of  these  forest  patriarchs 
antedates  the  oldest  history — that  they  are  fullest 
of  years  of  any  other  living  thing  on  earth — then 


it  is  indeed  Santa  Cruz  County's  pride  that  she  can 
claim,  as  a  priceless  possession,  these  mute  marks  of 
Time — this  prehistoric  grove  of  royal  redwoods. 
But  the  fact  that  the  Fremont  Grove  of  Big  Trees 
is  enclosed  by  a  board  fence,  and  is  controlled  by 
individual  ownership,  shows  a  glaring  discredit  to 
the  whole  fair  State  of  California. 


mighty  trees,  doing  no  harm,  but  ever  .leaving  their 
protectors  to  nve  on,  and  on!  Wild  animals,  doubt- 
less, alternated  with  human  species  in  making  their 
lairs  or  habitats  among  tall  brakes  and  ferns  beside 
the  water  near  the  protecting  trees.  Birds  nested 
and  reared  their  young,  while  they  warbled  their 
brief  lives  away  among  the  many  fatherly  boughs.

THE    "GENERAL    FREMONT"— ONE    OP    THE    GIANT   REDWOODS 


In  briefest  retrospect,  could  these  "druids  of 
old"  but  speak  literally,  what  changeful  scenes  in 
the  drama  of  life  could  they  not  acquaint  us  of,  as 
having  been  enacted  in  this  great  amphitheatre  of 
Nature?  Prehistoric  animals,  and  races- human,  have 
lived    and    passed   away    in    the    shadows    of    these 


The  blood  curdling  scream  of  mountain  lion,  that

on  a  cleft  crag  across  the  canyon  all  these  sounds 
of  most  tragic  import,  including  the  reverberating 
roil  of  thunder  ana  portentious  ramble  accompany 
ing  earthquakes,  were  as  only  so  many  tense  notes 
in  the  symphony  of  Nature,  to  this  mute  audience 
of  t  reesl 
Doubtless  "these  fair  ranks  of  trees"  were  very 

often    witness    lo    man\    tribal    hoots   and    wars,    with 

much  bloodshed,  :i ig  gregarious  peoples — inter- 
mittent rovers  who  perhaps  made  of  the  ancient 
grove  temporary  habitations.  And  it  may  ho  that 
these  oldest  of  Living  things  could  give  .'i  few  ideas 
regarding  primitive  methods  of  the  wooing  of  dusky 
young  damsels  by  stripling  braves.  In  ;ill  probnbil 
ity  the  old  patriarchs  have  also  stood  as  sponsors 
for  births  without  number.  The  lilting  laugh  and 
prattle  of  tittle  children,  with  bark  of  dogs— sounds 

alike    the    world    over — doubtless    was    only    ;in     aria 

which  harmonized  with  the  soft  sea  zephyrs  and  the 

triu'Lcio  of  water  Bowing  .-it  the  feet  of  the  majestic 
grove.  When  the  grim  reaper  s;iw  fit,  occasionally,

«as  the  order  for  many  mourners  to  intone  the 
dirge  like  death  chant;  and  :is  these  notes  of  sor- 
row welled  weirdly  upward,  the  sad  soughing 
rhythm— the  soft  whispering  of  windharps — in  uni- 
son murmured  a  sympathetic  threnody  through  the 
fog-draped  branches  of  the  priest-like  trees! 

All  this  in  retrospect ive  imagination,  yet  these 
ancient  redwoods  have  ever  stood,  in  the  light  of 
protectors  and  sympathizers  to  their  flesh  and 
blood  brothers  in  Nature;  and  it  is  far-fetched, 
indeed,   to   imagine   anything  in  Nature   save  light-

ning,  wind  or  earthquake  ever  harming  these  trees. 
It  remains  for  civilized  man  to  become  the  icono- 
clast in  this  pillared  temple!  Man  has  the  power, 
insofar  as  he  is  able,  to  protect;  or  he  can  mar  this 
priceless,  sylvan  masterpiece  in  Nature's  art  gal- 
lery! 

''The  groves  were  Goo"  s  first  temples,''  sang  the 
poet,  anil  so  an  inborn  consciousness  should  impel  all 
to  go  with  heads  uncovered  when  they  tread  the 
shadowy  aisles  of  this  spired  fane  of  Nature!  And, 
why  may  not  the  natives  of  fair  California  set  the 
precedent,  for  are  we  not  told, 

"In  every  great  trunk  an  epic  lies, 
A  psalm  in  every  branch  that  scales  the 
skies! ' ' 

If  the  sentiment  in  these  lines  is  taken  into  ac- 
count, then  indeed  is  it  meet  to  approach  these 
mute,  towering  patriarchs  of  an  antediluvian  period 
with  proper  respect  and  veneration! 

Sequoia  Sempervirens — a  name  especially  adapted 
to  these  mighty  giants;  Sempervirens — always 
strong,  ever  living — a  title  indicative  of  their  great 
vitality;  Sequoia — so  christened  by  science  after 
the  noted  Cherokee  Indian,  ' '  Se-quo-ya, ' '  who,  in 
a.l  probability,  was  chieftain  of  his  triDe — a  tribe 
of  Indians  famed  now  for  its  civilization  and  cul- 
ture. May  the  special  significance  of  the  title, 
Sequoia,  carry  with  it  the  fact  that  the  royal  red- 
wood of  California  is  indeed  the  plumed  chieftain 
of  all  the  world  tribes  of  trees! 


A  great  many  gates  are  needed  on  the  farm. 
There's  the  propagate,  the  fumigate,  the  irrigate,

not  only  of  horses,  but  of  deer.  At  Length  the 
stream  SO  often  waded  began  to  flow  hi  :i  M  might. or 
channel,  emerging  presently  where  a  narrow,  gras&y 
dell  expanded  to  the  wider  lands,  not  yet  visible  i  u 
clumps  of  live  oaks  and  a  point  of  emerald  hill. 

Here  the  camp  was  chosen  and  an  abundance  of 
acorns  suggested  the  feasibility  of  bread.  The  ex- 
periment proved  a  wretched  failure,  but  the  greater 
wonder  may  be  expressed  thai  if  was  attempted. 
When  morning  dawned,  the  air  was  misty;  but 
when  travel  was  resumed,  it  began  to  clear.  A  deep 
trail  led  the  way  lor  the  file,  and  soon  the  tore 
most  cleared  the  vale  and  beheld,  to  their  amaze- 
ment, "sweet  fields  arrayed  in  living  green,"  over 
which  roamed  countless  herds  of  long-horned  cattle. 
They  at  once  opened  lire,  and  two  of  the  animals 
tell  to  their  bullets.  A  light  breeze  sprang  up,  the 
thin  vapor  began  to  wreathe  about  the  hilltops,  and 
in  a  glorious  burst  of  sunshine,  a  cavalcade  bore 
swiftly  down  upon  the  scene.  The  old  ranchero, 
accompanied  by  his  vaqueros,  had  been  running 
down  cayotes,  one  of  which  he  dragged  at  the  end 
of  his  lariat.  When  the  horsemen  approached  and 
reined  in  before  the  trespassers,  Mr.  Brier  and  his 
family  had  just  arrived,  and  fortunately,  Mr.  Pat- 
rick— who  was  in  service  as  an  assistant — was  able 
to  explain  t lie  situation.  As  a  soldier  in  the  Mexi- 
can war.  he  had  acquired  a  rudimentary  skill  in  the 
vernacular  which,  on  this  occasion,  he  turned  to  a 
diplomatic  purpose. 

The  silent  natives  were  evidently  moved  to  com- 
passion by  the  ragged  and  emaciated  appearance  of 
the  strangers — their  woeful  countenances,  unshav- 
en;  their  hair  unshorn  beneath  torn  and  slouching 
hats;  their  feet  wrapped  in  bandages  of  hide;  their 
lean  oxen  under  burdens  of  refuse;  the  evident  ex- 
tremity of  their  plight.  It  only  remained  for  Pat- 
rick to  designate  Mr.  Brier  as  "  un  padre" — a  hint 
supplementary  to  an  appeal  more  eloquent  than 
words.  The  simple  mind  of  the  old  Spaniard,  vacant 
of  controversial  rubbish,  was  visibly  affected  by  the 
great  misfortune  that  had  befallen  a  priest.  He 
reverently  removed  his  sombrero  and  exclaimed 
with  broken  utterance,  ' '  Padre,  padre,  probrecito 
padre! ' ' 

A  warm  welcome  was  instant  I  v  extended  to  the 
hospitalities  of  the  Kancho  de  San  Francisquito. 
Vaqueros  caught  up  the  children  and  swiftly  bore 
them  to  the  nacienda,  :i  league  distant  across  the 
level  plain.  There  they  were  set  down  by  a  clear 
runnel  to  await  the  coming  of  their  friends;  and 
there  the  camp  was  located,  to  which  supplies  were 
rushed  with  generous,  though  inconsiderate  haste. 
A  fat  bullock  was  immediately  led  to  the  ground 
and  slaughtered,  while  meal,  torteas,  beans, 
squashes  and  milk  followed  in  profusion.  Mrs. 
jjrier  was  met  on  the  brow  of  the  hill  on  which 
stood  the  old  adobe,  and  embraced  by  the  matron, 
with  loud  cries  and  convulsive  sobbing.  Lavish 
entertainment  was  distinguished  by  delicacy  of  at- 
tention and  marked  respect,  and  nothing  was  want- 
ing to  the  conditions  that  make  for  happiness  and 
peace.  It  was  a  new  world,  a  varied  prospect  of 
illuminated  green,  over  whose  hills  and  vales  the 
rarest  sunshine  played,  through  which  the  purest 
waters  flowed,  the  whole  embalmed  in  the  atmos- 
phere of  a  perfect  spring.  More  than  twenty  thou- 
sand cattle  wandered  at  will  over  the  rich  pastures, 
with  horses,  mules  and  burros  numberless.  With 
the  reports  of  such  a  teeming  population  borne  in 
from  every  horizon,  it  was  impossible  to  have  \ 
lonesome  thought;  and  with  anticipation  wrought 
to  ecstacy,  there  was  relief  from  agonizing  mem- 
ories and  the  too  poignant  sense  of  wrongs. 

Arrive  at  Pueblo  of  Los  Angeles. 

But,  alas,  the  camp  was  given  to  excess,  followed 
by  bloating,  the  fatal  consequences  of  which  were 
checked  by  the  timely  arrival  of  J_»r.  Irving  of  Los 
Angeles.  He  was  on  the  ground  to  organize  an 
expedition  of  relief,  having  heard  the  story  of  the 
''departure,"  from  recent  arrivals  by  tne  Spanish 
Trail.  Influential  with  all  the  native  population — 
by  virtue  of  his  marital  relation,  as  well  as  his  own 
genial  qualities — he  was  able  to  further  the  plans 
of  those  who  had  decided  to  proceed  directly  to  the 
north.  Henceforth,  this  narrative  will  be  con- 
cerned with  the  few  who  proceeded  to  the  pueblo, 
by  way  of  the  San  Fernando  Mission. 

The  start  was  made  towards  evening,  with  the 
intention  of  camping  a  few  miles  from  the  hacienda. 
Mr.  Brier,  mounted  on  a  mule  with  two  of  his  chil- 


li ren,  made  a     bort  cut  and    oon  n

ed until  nightfall,  he  resolved  to  wait  until  night 
was  done,  it  was  a  long  night,  disturbed  midway 
by  the  attempl  of  a  grizzbj  bear  to  devour  the 
tetnered  mule.  The  latter  broke  from  bis  tying  and 
escaped   hornet  a  rd,  and  t  be   I

scarcely   a  hundred  ;■■  ard    s  ca  mp  was  in- 

vaded for  breakfast,  after  which  the  march  to  San 
Fernando  was  resumed.  Again  the  native  riders 
came  to  the  rescue,  and  conveyed  the  children  to 
tne  mission,  some  two  leagues  distant,  where  thej 
were  cared  for  pending  the  arrival  of  their  parents. 
Dr.  Irving  was  on  hand  to  enforce  the  rule  of  mod 
eration,  quite  as  much  as  to  secure  good  graces  for 
his  charge.  -Nothing  could  have  exceeded  the 
urbane  hospitality  of  the  Franciscan  father  in  c  im 
ma  ml.  He  was  compelled,  however,  to  lock  his 
guests  within  a  close  apartment  for  their  security 
during  the  night,  as  the  domestic  Indians  were  es 
ceedingly  hostile  to  the  new  owners  of  the  country. 

The  writer  is  in  strong  sympathy  with  the  work 
of  restoring  and  perpetuating  the  crumbling  mis 
sions,  about  which  cluster  the  most  delightful  mem 
oriea  of  his  young  life.  If  all  who  are  committed 
to  the  advocacy  of  this  undertaking  were  under  the 
enchantment  of  these  early  memories  they  might, 
indeed,  subject  themselves  to  ridicule,  but  they 
would  not  dally  with  their  wishes  and  defer  the 
execution  of  their  plans.  We  may  not  expect  to  see 
those  ancient,  benignant  estates  renewed  in  their 
former  opulence.  The  complexion  and  features  of 
antiquity  that  exert  so  rare  a  charm  can  only  be 
perpetuated  in  part.  The  old  trees  are  dead,  and 
the  walls  that  enclosed  them  have  crumbled;  but 
trees  of  the  same  fruitage  can  be  planted,  and  the 
tile-protected  walls  can  be  rebuilt.  We  can  see 
again  cloisters  and  corridors,  gardens  and  fountains, 
and  sanctuary  retreats,  in  the  twilight  gloom  of 
revered  silence.  Again  we  can  hear  the  vesper 
tones  that  jangled  in  harmony  from  the  old  copper 
bells,  and  breathe  tne  incense  floating  through  long 
drawn  aisles  and  wreathing  about  symbols  of  sacred 
legend  and  images  of  hallowed  regard. 

On  tin'  morning  of  departure  from  San  Fernando. 
a  mount  was  placed  at  the  option  of  each.  The 
courtesy  was  declined  by  all  but  Lummis  St.  John, 
who  chose  a  mule  of  elegant  proportions  but  re- 
fractory temper.  After  a  soaring  summersault,  the 
bold  rider  was  laid  on  his  back,  in  the  dust  of  the 
arena,  whereupon  he  immediately  joined  the  ranks 
of  the  pedestrians. 

The  journey  of  twenty  miles,  through  varied, 
verdant  landscapes  decorated  with  flowers,  always 
among  lowing  herds  and  occasionally  in  view  of 
picturesque  habitations,  was  a  perpetual  delight.  An 
incident  of  the  way  will  serve  to  illustrate  the 
feeling  cherished  by  domesticated  Indians  against 
the  incoming  Americans.     A  stop  for  refreshment  at 

a    small   hacienda    was   tl ccasion  of  a  murderous 

attack  upon  -.  rs.  Brier,  that  must  have  succeeded 
but  for  the  prompt  and  efficient  interference  of  Pat- 
nek.  AYhile  the  kind  hostess  was  waiting  upon  her 
guests.  ,.ne  of  these  peons,  strongly  under  the  influ- 
ence of  aquadiente.  rushed  in.  armed  with  an  ugly 
knife  raised  for  the  fatal  plunge,  loudly  exclaiming, 
''Mueho  malo  Americanos!"  He  was  floored  by  a 
blow  between  the  eyes,  and  dragged  out,  to  be  thrust 
under  a  cart  bed.  Escaping,  he  repeated  his  at- 
tempt with  a  like  result,  only  that  he  w^is  made 
secure  in  confinement,  and  the  strangers  we're  en- 
abled to  depart  in  peace. 

WThen  they  approached  the  tile-roofed  metrop- 
olis, the  vesper  bells  were  ringing  and  the  plaza 
was  thronged  writh  people,  intent  upon  worship  or 
diversion.  Many  of  them  were  in  gay  attire,  the 
horsemen,  particularly,  attracting  attention  by  the 
beauty  of  their  steels,  the  costliness  of  their  trap- 
pings, and  their  own  superior  equestrian  grace. 
Scarcely  more  than  a  week  had  elapsed  since  they 
who  gazed  upon  this  novel  and  attractive  scene 
were  still  in  tne  toils  of  the  desert;  and  their  emo- 
tions corresponded  with  what  they  conceived  to  be 
the  Ultima  Tliule  of  splendid  realization.  All  this 
must  be  left  to  the  imagination  of  the  reader.  The 
story  has  reached  its  end.  But,  to  satisfy  a  natural 
curiosity,  it  may  be  added,  that  a  number  of  those 
who  had  followed  Captain  Hunt  were  yet  encamped 
on  the  border  of  the  pueblo;  that  Mr.  Brier  sold 
his  oxen  for  a  half  interest  in  the  only  American 
hotel,  the  other  half  having  been  purchased  by  the 
Eev.  Mr.  Granger,  afterward  lawyer,  judge  and 
frequent  member  of  the  Legislature  of  California; 
and  that,  for  a  week  prei  ions  to  these  transactions, 
the  Briers  were  the  honored  guests  of  Dr.  Irving, 
who  fed  them  well,  but  protected  them  from  the 
excess  that  often  proves  a  swifter,  if  not  stronger, 
enemy  than  famine  itself.

(CONDUCTED    BY   AUNT   ELLA   AND   UNCLE   ADLEY    STEELING.) 


AN  APPEAL  TO  THE  SUNDAY-SCHOOL 

SUPERINTENDENTS  OF  CALIFORNIA 


F  IT  IS  THE  LAST  WORD  I  SPEAK 
or  write,  it  shall  be  for  the  children 
of  our  beloved  State.  It  is  to  you, 
the  guardians  of  the  Sunday-schools, 
that  we  must  look,  to  set  the  exam- 
ple -  for  others  to  follow.  If  the 
Church  cannot  do  something  to  help 
the  parents,  and  the  teachers,  and 
WiSB  l1"'  :rn''111^  "^  t1""-'  children  to  clean 

'jdKs£  h|"  these  Augean  -tables  of  the  East- 
ern publishers,  then  let  us  know  it  at 
once,  for  there  is  no  time  to  waste. 
I  entreat  the  Native  Sons  and  Daughters  in  all  parts 
of  our  mother-State  to  send  a  committee  to  visit  the 
libraries  of  the  Sunday-schools  and  take  notice  of 
the  books  on  the  shelves.  Sometimes  it  so  happens 
that  ugly  or  worthless  books  creep  in  unawares  and 
no  provision  has  been  made  for  their  removal.  Dur- 
ing this  lovely  new  springtime,  now  upon  us,  what 
is  more  appropriate  than  a  good  house-cleaning  and 
purifying  by  fire,  to  do  away  with  the  obnoxious 
books  to  be  found  in  the  children 's  libraries, 
together  with  the  other  dead  matter  of  the  season? 
This  is  a  vital  question.  "No  fountain  rises 
higher  than  its  source,"  and  if  we  permit  publishers 
to  keep  their  printing  presses  going  day  and  night, 
getting  out  books  to  debauch  the  minds  of  o,ur  chil- 
dren for  gain,  then  on  our  heads  be  it.  But  don  't 
wake  up  too  late — wake  up  now!  Go  to  work  and 
put  up  your  protest.  Are  not  our  children  our 
proudest  product?  Yet  do  not  they  defy  us  and 
grow  up  wild,  in  spite  of  all  that  the  fathers  of  the 
Church  and  the  ministers  of  the  Church  can  do! 
Why  is  this?  Because  of  the  low  moral  taste  of  the 
common  grown-ups.  But  we  cannot  reach  them — 
they  are  already  made  or  broken.  Let  them  go  on 
satiating  themselves  to  please  their  decayed  appe- 
tites. We  don't  care.  However,  if  there  is  any- 
thing I  would  take  a  gun  on  my  shoulder  for,  it  is 
to  join  an  army  to  go  forth  and  fight  for  the  rights 
of  the  young.  Let  them  have  a"  chance  for  their 
more  than  lives — their  innocence! 

Why  not  join  together,  all  over  our  State,  to  assist 
in  making  the  Sunday-school  libraries  places  of 
beauty. and  joys  forever,  and  thus  coax  back  into 
the  sacred  fold  the  lambs  that  belong  there.  Let 
every  one  of  them  be  built  up  and  turned  into  social 
centers  for  the  good  of  all  the  community,  and  let 
the  children  themselves  carry  on  these  libraries  un- 
der the  care  of  a  guardian.  But  there  must  be  a 
gTeat  change  made  in  the  quality  of  the  volumes 
permitted  upon  the  shelves.  Any  of  the  classics  are 
to  be  preferred  to  the  present  vulgar  output  of  the 
publishers  in  the  Eastern  states.  However,  a  de- 
lightful collection  may  be  made  by  beginning  with  a 
list  of  a  certain  thirty  books  and  adding  gradually 
until  the  best  are  secured.  Now,  I  am  a  believer  in 
children  going  to  Sunday-school,  and  think  no  child 
should  be  left  out.  And  with  beautiful  books  to 
take  home  and  read  and  talk  about  to  each  other 
they  will  be  materially  benefited,  and  all  that  their 
minds  receive  will  be  given  back  abundantly  to  us 
with  new  thoughts,  never  thought  before,  if  only  we 
plant  the  life-giving  seed  there  in  the  first  place. 

I  have  made  some  remarkable  discoveries  during 
this  last  year  while  establishing  this  first  "Child's 
Library"  for  the  children  of  my  neighborhood. 
Fresh  from  the  hand  of  God,  the  Creator,  these  little 
ones  come  to  us  with  creative  powers  which  we  seek 
at  once  to  destroy,  and  instead  of  letting  the  bud 
live  to  its  own  laws  of  being,  we  begin  to  pry  it 
open  with  chisels  and  carpenter  tools.  Long  ago 
Froebel   started  the  children's  garden,  to  try   and 


save  them  from  this  forcing  process,  but  now  we 
have  forgotten  it  all,  and  are  trying  to  make  them 
into  little  old  men  and  women  of  uncanny  counte- 
nances, with  their  brains  busy  with  mysteries  which 
neither  they  nor  ourselves  can  ever  understand. 
What  is  the  use  of  it?  It  is  a  terrible  waste  of  time 
and  brain  power. 

Marie  Corelli,  in  her  last  book,  denounces  the 
world  for  its  wickedness,  and  says  nothing  but  de- 
stroying everybody  and  starting  over  again  can  re- 
deem it  from  utter  destruction.  But  I  say,  "No,"  it 
is  easier  than  that.  Just  let  the  innocent  children 
alone  for  one  generation  and  the  world  will  be  re- 
deemed. Their  minds  are  limited — to  them  certain 
things  are  unthinkable.  Let  them  remain  unthink- 
able, and  the  world  begins  over  again  like  a  new 
Garden  of  Eden.  Give  every  child  a  book  of  Aesop 
in  one  syllable  and  set  him  to  work  choosing  his 
favorite  fable  and  you  will  be  astonished;  give  him 
the  Bible  stories  in  one  syllable,  and  you  will  find 
yourself  to  be  a  very  ignorant  person  in  talking 
with  him.  Greater  treasure  than  diamonds,  pearls 
and  rubies  are  waiting  for  you  if  only  you  will  let 
the  buds  unfold  slowly,  according  to  the  law  of  buds, 
just  giving  them  proper  soil,  water  and  sunshine, 
ihe  old-fashioned  thoughts  are  best  for  children, 
and  best  for  ourselves,  too. 

Our  architecture  on  this  Pacific  Coast  is  our  pride, 
but  we  ought  also  to  get  together  and  create  a  de- 
mand for  the  beautiful  in  books,  as  a  civic  duty  of 
far  more  importance.  The  roses  in  our  child-gardens 
are  being  blighted  by  the  vermin  devouring  the  ten- 
derlings before  they  know  how  to  resist.  We  must 
go  forth  and  brush  away  these  ugly  things  feasting 
upon  our  child-life  and  supply  better  conditions.  Up' 
in  the  Sacramento  Valley  the  Japanese  children  are 
increasing  and  the  United  States  children  decreas- 
ing. We  must  gather  our  tenderlings  together  and 
nurture  them  to  be  ready  for  the  day  coming,  when 
our  State  is  to  be  threatened  with  invasion.  We 
shall  need  every  child  we  can  get.  We  must  train 
them  in  honor  and  loyalty;  we  must  not  let  them  be 
at  the  mercy  of  that  low  moral  attitude  of  the  Jap- 
anese, which  permits  a  brother  to  sell  his  own  sister 
for  gain.    We  must  wake  up  before  it  is  too  late! 


HOW  WE  CELEBRATED. 

May  6th  we  held  our  anniversary  of  the  literary 
bonfire  and  the  establishment  of  the  first  "Child's 
Library"  in  California.  I  did  not  want  to  repeat 
the  bonfire,  because  it  is  a  severe  task  and  I  prefer 
to  remain  in  my  nouse  and  be  quiet,  but  someone 
had  to  do  it.  Burning  obnoxious  books  in  my 
kitchen-stove  did  not  settle  the  matter — that  I  had 
been  doing  all  the  year  round — yet  certain  volumes 
were  still  being  sent  me  to  review,  and  I  observed 
these  books  were  ueiug  urged  upon  the  public  in 
the  Sunday  papers  without  so  much  as  a  demur.  So 
someone  had  to  speak  up.  After  our  delightful  after- 
noon party,  the  Deejers  gathered  out  in  front  of 
the  Child's  Library  waving  green  boughs  and  sing- 
ing, "We  are  pilgrims  and  we  are  brothers."  and 
aided  by  neighbors  and  friends,  who  had  gathered  in 
a  kindly  spirit,  the  objectionable  books  went  in,  bit 
by  bit,  from  the  hands  of  little  and  big.  Slowly 
the  smoke  curled  up  in  dense  rolls,  and  finally  the 
fire  leaped  up  and  made  a  weird  center  to  that 
throng.  Since  then  I  have  been  asked  to  write 
down  the  titles  of  the  burned  books  and  why  I 
chose  them  for  burning.  Not  desiring  to  advertise 
evil  books,  I  decided  not  to  mention  them,  but  will 
gladly  furnish  a  list  to  any  grown-up  interested  in 
children 's  work. 

One  particular  work,  contained  in  two  volumes, 
was  as  full  of  misery  as  two  slim  sticks  of  dyna- 
mite. I  eoula  not  endure  them  myself,  yet  the 
Sunday  papers  recommended  them  to  be  given  to 
children  to  reaa,  to  unveil  mysteries  which  they 
nor  anybody  else  can  comprehend.  The  mother  of 
two  of  my  Deejers  had  read  them,  and  they  had 
sickened  her — and  she  is  the  mother  of  six  children. 
She  agreed  with  me  that  they  should  be  burned. 
While  they  lay  waiting  for  the  hour  of  incineration 
three  of  my  girls  glanced  them  over.  I  let  them  do 
so,  simply  to  see  the  effect  on  their  minds.  Of 
course,  an  element  of  curiosity  entered  in  for  a  brief 
moment,  then  a  flush  of  noble  red  dyed  those  young 
cheeks,  and  mutterings  began:  "The  publisher  of 
such  books  ought  to  be  arrested  and  put  in  prison," 
said  one;  "For  life,"  said  another;  "And  the 
author,  too,"  added  the  third.  I  had  my  answer. 
I  could  stand  for  these  children  to  the  death.  They 
did  not  want  these  things.  The  publishers  were  all 
wrong  and  so  was  the  Sunday  press.  I  went  to  my 
task,  resolute.  We  sang  our  Pioneer  Mother's  hymn 
as  the  flames  ascended,  and  the  girls  were  eager  to 
assist  in  tearing  these  pages,  as  if  thereby  they  were 
rending  the  publisher  limb  from  limb.     The  street 


was  full  of  asesmbled  neighbors  and  friends,  and 
rough  boys  quieted  down  for  the  moment. 

I  turned  and  addressed  them  as  a  mother  would, 
trying  to  keep  harm  away  from  her  brood.  I  told 
them  that  I  was  doing  this  for  the  sake  of  the  chil- 
dren. ±t  was  our  anniversary,  but  things  had  not 
cleared  up  during  the  year — in  fact  they  had  grown 
worse.  I  asked  tnem  to  remember  that  it  was  the 
uncontaminated  mind  of  the  child  that  I  was  speak- 
ing for,  and  the  best  way  to  have  that  was  to  sup- 
ply beautiful  things  for  them  to  think  about.  That 
we  had  found  the  .classics  in  one  syllable,  the  Bible, 
"Aesop's  Fables,"  "Robinson  Crusoe"  and 
"Black  Beauty"  gave  us  all  great  pleasure  aud  de- 
light. That  the  boy  who  was  reading  "Peck's  Bad 
Boy"  last  year  says  now  that  his  favorite  book  is 
"Black  Beauty."  That  I  hoped  to  get  "Minister- 
ing Children"  for  them  before  long,  as  that  was  the 
greatest  book  I  had  ever  read  in  my  life,  but  it 
could  not  be  gotten  in  our  country;  we  should 
have  to  send  to  London  for  it.  I  told  them  that  as 
long  as  I  lived,  I  was  going  to  stand  for  the  children 
and  I  hoped  they  all  would  help  me.  Then  they  gave 
me  a  round  of  applause  from  their  kindly  hearts,  for 
they  knew  I  preferred  to  stay  inside  my  house  and 
keep  quiet,  but  that  someone  had  to  do  it,  and  I 
accepted  the  task,  not  because  I  wanted  to,  but  be- 
cause I  HAD  to.  Then  the  mothers  came  in",  the 
charred  embers  were  carried  away,  and  the  children 
sat  on  the  floor  while  we  had  a  nice  little  time 
together,  and  no  one  was  angry  at  me. 

But  one  of  our  girls  was  hiding  out  of  sight,  with 
two  others  yearning  over  her.  "What  is  the  mat- 
ter?" I  asked.  "Poor  little  Elsie  is  crying,"  said 
one  of  them;  "she  thinks  it  is  terrible  that  men  and 
women  write  such  books  as  those,  and  we  think  so, 
too. ' ' 

And  that  is  the  verdict  of  the  uncontaminated 
mind.    Is  it  not  enough?    Do  we  need  more?

The  Los  Angeles  Brea  Company,  to  sell  asphaltum 
and  manufacture  coal  oil,  was  incorporated  June 
18th  with  a  capital  of  $18,000  and  thirty-six  shares. 

There  were  the  usual  number  of  casualties  from 
caving  of  banks  in  the  mining  section.  Twenty 
such  accidents  reported  caused  the  death  of  miners 
caved  upon  and  nearly  all  showed  a  neglect  to  pro- 
tect by  timbering  the  banks  of  cuts  and  roofs  of 
tunnels  and  drifts. 

Olive   Oil   as   a   Novelty. 

Lake  County  was  organized  during  this  moni.h. 
It  was  formed  from  a  part  of  Napa  County  a  nd 
elected  a  full  set  of  county  officials  to  be  located  at 
Lakeport.  selected  to  be  the  county  seat. 

The  State  Prison  Directors  made  a  contract  with 
E.  T.  Pease  of  San  Francisco  to  furnish  him  fifty 
convicts  to  be  employed  in  coopering.  The  State 
was  to  receive  fifty  cents  a  day  for  each  convict 
and  furnish  food,  clothing  and  guards  for  the  pris- 
oners. 

Olive  oil,  to  the  extent  of  500  gallons,  had  been 
manufactured  at  the  Mission  San  Fernando  and  was 
being  placed  on  the  market  as  a  California  novelty. 

The  Overland  Telegraph  construction  gangs 
in  charge  of  I.  M.  Hubbard  left  Placerville 
June  3rd  with  27  wagons,  270  oxen,  mules  and 
horses  and  40  men  to  construct  the  telegraph  line 
from  Fort  Churchill  to  Salt  Lake  City. 

Wisconsin  Hill,  a  mining  town  in  Placer  County. 
was  burned  June  3rd.  and  Cottonwood,  a  mining 
town  in  Siskiyou  County,  was  burned  on  June  20th. 

A  vulture  was  killed  on  the  Coast  Range  that 
weighed  thirty  pounds  and  measured  from  tip  1o 
tip  of  its  wings  fourteen  feet.  Its  pinions  were 
being  sold  as  souvenir  quills. 

Jos.  Fouche,  messenger  of  Wells,  Fargo  &  Co., 
while  coming  from  Weaverville  on  horseback  with 
a  shipment  of  treasure,  was  attacked  by  highway- 
men at  night,  but  escaped  with  the  sack  containing 
$8000,  by  slipping  off  the  rear  of  his  horse  aad  hid- 
ing while  the  robbers  pursued  his  riderless  hnrse. 

A  bull  and  bear  fight  at  Rudsell's  Landing,  ;n 
Sonoma  County,  came  off  according  to  program.  The 
bull  was  the  victor,  but  a  second  day's  fight  was 
determined  upon  and  in  this  contest  the  bear  not 
only  vanquished  the  bull  but.  getting  loose,  nut  the 
spectators  to  flight  also. 


Trying  to  quiet  a  fretting  baby  is  a  hard  task, 
but  trying  to  quiet  an  accusing  conscience  is  a. 
harder  one.

All  Pa  lors  licit  have  become  interested  in  finding 
homes,    a.e     now     thoroughly     acquainted     with     the 


whether  or  not  a  child  will  be  well  placed  there. 
A  regulation  blank  is  furnished  the  local  committee 
for  their  report,  and  when  this  reaches  the  office 
of  the  Central  Committee,  the  secretary  is  pretty 
well  informed  as  to  the  applicant,  and  about  what 
type  of  child  will  be  satisfactory.  All  reports  from 
Parlors  and  references  are  kept  in  confidence,  and 
in  all  instances  the  report  of  the  local  committee 
is  taken  as  final.  Any  case  upon  which  the  local 
committee  reports  unfavorable,  is  closed  at  once. 
After  the  child  is  placed,  the  Homeless  '  hildren 's 
Committee  is  asked  to  take  supervision  of  him,  and 
a  report  each  month  or  two  keeps  the  Central  Com- 
mittee   in    close    touch    with    the    child    until    he    is 


still  doing  splendid  work.  Mr.  and  Mrs.  E.  W. 
Simmons,  chairman  of  the  committee  of  their  re- 
spective Parlors,  have  cared  for  one  of  our  orphans 
for  eight  months  without  expense  to  the  committee. 
Their  interest  in  the  boy  is  such  that  they  want  to 
do  what  they  can  tor  him,  while  he  is  waiting  to 
be  placed  permanently. 

Observatory  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.W.,  with  E.  B.  Devine

^XERT  CARE  IN  SELECTING  OFFICIALS 


Conducted  by  Clarence  M.  Hunt,  Managing  Editor 

over  their  lives,  even  if  innocent,  a  shadow  which 
time  will  not  be  able  to  efface. 

The  cries  of  ' ( frame-up, "  "persecution"  and 
' '  conspirac}', ' '  that  are  accredited  to  men  affiliated 
with  these  prisoners  in  various  organizations  are  of 
no  value  whatever  to  the  accused;  and  the  responses 
of  "anarchy,"  "villiany"  and  "endorsement  on 
the  part  of  those  organizations,"  from  those  op- 
posed to  the  organizations  to  which  the  prisoners 
belong  are  of  no  value  whatever  to  the  prosecutors 
of  criminals  and  murderers.  The  yelpings  of  both 
these  elements  are  distasteful  to  EVERY  honest 
California  citizen,  who  sees  in  them  an  attempt  to 
make  it  appear  as  if  this  great  State  of  ours  were 
warring  against  organizations — the  great  majority 
of  whose  members  are  honest  and  law-abiding,  but 
often  misled, — instead  of  protecting  society  from 
criminals. 

The  people  of  the  State  of  California,  through 
their  legally  constituted  police  authorities,  are  only 
endeavoring  to  bring  to  justice  the  criminals  who 
are  supposed  to  have  planned  and  executed  the 
Los  Angeles  catastrophe,  and  the  three  men  under 
arrest,  charged  with  the  crime,  are  held,  not  as 
members  of  any  organization,  but  as  individuals. 
The  people  of  the  State  of  California,  through  their 
legally  constituted  judiciary,  will  see  that  these 
men  are  honestly  tried,  not  as  members  of  any 
organization,  but  as  individuals;  if  acquitted,  each 
in  his  turn  will  be  discharged  from  custody,  and 
if  convicted,  each  in  his  turn  will  be  punished  as 
the  law  dictates. 

If  proven  guilty,  these  men  should  suffer  the 
law's  severest  punishment,  without  regard  to  what 
organizations  they  are  affiliated  with,  and  with  the' 
sole  purpose  of  future  protection  to  the  lives  and 
property  of  the  citizens  of  the  State  from  the 
criminal  element.  If  proven  innocent,  these  men 
should  be  promptly  discharged,  without  regard  to 
what  organizations  they  are  affiliated  with,  and 
every  legitimate  means  taken  to  protect  them  from 
suffering  the  ill-effects  of  wrongful  arrest  on  such 
a  serious  charge,  and  as  much  publicity  should  be 
given  to  their  being  declared  innocent  as  has  been 
given    simply    to    their    arrest. 

Every  honest  citizen  believes  in  that  theory  of 
the  law  which  presumes  every  man  innocent  until 
proven  guilty,  and  the  more  serious  the  offense,  the 
more  willing  should  we  be  to  put  into  practice  this 
very  theory.  Let  us  be  sufficiently  charitable  to 
at  least  hear  both  sides  of  the  ease  at  bar.  Not 
one  of  us  knows  what  evidence  will  be  presented 
either  for  or  against  the  accused,  and  until  we  have 
heard  both  sides,  how  can  we  honestly  declare  their 
innocence  or  guilt?  Let  us  forget,  as  far  as  poss- 
ible, that  such  a  dastardly  crime  was  ever  com- 
mitted within  our  fair  State.  Let  us  hope  that  no 
man  had  so  completely  forgotten  the  promised  wrath 
of  the  Great  God  above  that  he  would  deliberately 
plan  and  execute  the  taking  of  the  lives  of  twenty- 
one   of  his  fellow-men. 

God  will,  in  His  own  way  and  time,  demand  the 
penalty  of  those  who  violate  His  laws,  whether 
they  be  rich  or  poor,  great  or  small,  laborers  or 
capitalists.  Man  also,  in  his  code  of  laws,  provides 
punishment  alike  for  all,  no  matter  what  their 
station  in  life.  God  alone  KNOWS  the  guilt  or 
innocence  of  every  one  of  His  creatures,  and  is 
alone  eapable  of  passing  judgment.  Man,  knowing 
not  the  guilt  or  innocence  of  any  person,  has  pro- 
vided that  each  one  accused  of  crime  shall  be  ac- 
corded a  speedy  and  fair  trial,  before  a  jury  of 
his  peers,  and  upon  the  verdict  of  that  jury  we 
mortals  declare  judgment.  Let  us  not  try  the  men 
under  arrest  for  the  Los  Angeles  outrage  in  the 
press,  but  before  a  jury  of  their  fellow-men,  and 
with  due  regard  for  the  rights  and  privileges  of 
the  accused. 

There  will  be  ample  time  for  any  who  so  desire, 
to  berate  the  prisoners  after  they  are  declared 
guilty  by  a  jury;  there  will  be  ample  time  for  any 
who  feel  so  inclined,  to  berate  the  prisoners'  ac- 
cusers after  tney  are  declared  innocent  by  a  jury. 
Until  such  time  as  the  jury  renders  its  verdict,  none 
of  us  can  speak  with  any  degree  of  certainty  as 
to  either  their  guilt  or  innocence.  For  that  reason, 
we  should  all  be  willing  to  Jeave  the  case  to  the 
jury,  ever  remembering  the  injunction  of  the  Scrip- 
ture:    "Judge  not,  unless  ye  be  judged!" 


Within  a  few  days  the  Orders  of  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West  and  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West  will,  through  their  respective  dele- 
gates assembled  in  Grand.  Parlor  at  Santa  Cruz, 
select  officials  who  will  guide  their  destinies 
throughout  the  succeeding  year.  It  is  not  our  in- 
tention to  advocate  the  election  of  any  particular 
person  to  Grand  Parlor  office,  but  at  this  oppor- 
tune time  we  offer  the  suggestion  to  the  assembled 
delegates,  that  they  be  careful  to  elect  to  office 
those  men  and  women  who  are  best  suited  for  the 
several   positions   of  honor  and  trust. 

In  the  selection  of  our  officials,  we  should  have 
a  care  not  to  be  entirely  swayed  in  our  choice 
through  personal  friendship,  as  against  peculiar 
ability,  but  should  lay  aside  all  personal  feelings 
and  cast  our  ballots  for  those  whom  we  con- 
scientiously believe  will  best  subserve  the  interests 
of  our   Orders. 

Every  member  of  the  Grand  Parlor  has  a 
commendatory  right  to  aspire  to  Grand  Parlor 
office — for  to  hold  any  one  of  the  official  positions 
is  an  honor  that  every  member  should  be  proud 
to  seek — but  it  is  the  duty  of  every  delegate  to 
carefully  consider  the  peculiar  fitness  of  each  can- 
didate for  the  office  he  or  she  seeks  and,  grauting 
all  candidates  are  of  equal  moral  and  intellectual 
worth,  cast  his  or  her  ballot  in  behalf  of  that  office- 
seeker  who  is  known  to  possess  the  special  quali- 
ties  requisite   for   the   position   sought. 

We  must  all  agree  that  we  cannot  afford  to  take 
chances  on  selecting  officials  whose  records  are  not 
perfectly  clear  to  us,  as  the  past  has  demonstrated 
such  action  is  exceedingly  dangerous  to  our  Order's 
welfare.  We  want  right-thinking,  right-acting,  and 
right-advocating  men  and  women  to  make  up  our 
official   families. 

We  want  those  officials  who  seek  office  for  the 
good  they  can  do  the  Orders,  rather  than  for  the 
harm  they  can  do  through  antagonism  toward 
those  with  whom  they  may  not  agree.  The  suc- 
cess of  our  Orders  demands  that  we  elect  to  "office 
those  who  are  broad-minded  enough  to  encourage 
and  loyally  support  such  members  of  our  fraterni- 
ties as  our  giving  of  their  time,  energy  and  money 
for  the  advancement  of  «.xie  Orders,  and  not  those 
who  are  so  egotistical  and  pin-headed  as  to  look 
with  suspicion  upon  all  projects  that  do  not 
emanate  from  their  own  brains,  or  are  not  ad- 
vanced by  their  especial  favorites.  We  require 
those  who  recognize  no  cliques  or  factions,  but  are 


ready  to  give  all  good  measures  their  unqualified 
support. 

The  opportunities  for  our  Orders  to  DO  things 
are  innumerable,  but  in  order  to  take  full  ad- 
vantage of  them — and  tuereby  push  steadily  for- 
ward untd  we  shall  have  reached  the  highest  peak 
on  the  mountain  of  Fraternal  Success — we  must 
be  generalled  by  those  who  fulby  appreciate  what 
has  been  accomplished,  what  is  now  under  way, 
and  what  must  be  done  in  the  future  if  we  are 
to  carry  out  the  purposes  for  which  we  exist.  We 
must  ignore,  if  not  entirely  eliminate  from  our 
ranks,  the  perpetual  "ulterior-motive"  howlers,  and 
those  who  do  not  recognize  real  worth  in  such 
members  as  have  been  tried  and  not  found  want- 
ing. 

If  we  would  attract  to  our  organizations  men  and 
women  who  are  in  a  position  to  aid  in  the  work 
our  Orders  have  in  hand  and  must  undertake  if 
we  are  to  progress,  we  should  first  prove  to  those 
outside  our  Orders  that  we  recognize  good  service 
in  our  officials,  and  that  we  really  appreciate  the 
time,  energy  and  money  expended  solely  in  the 
Orders'  interests  by  those  already  affiliated  with 
us. 

The  delegates  to  both  Grand  Parlors  should  care- 
fully consider  the  merits  of  all  questions,  and  all 
candidates  for  official  positions,  presented  for  their 
consideration,  and  not  be  influenced  in  their  deci- 
sions by  t he  injection  of  references  to  things  that 
have  no  legitimate  place  in  a  Grand  Parlor  of 
Native  Sons  or  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West.  They  will  assemble  at  Santa  Cruz  solely  as 
representatives  of  these  two  State  fraternities,  and 
while  there  in  annual  convention,  the  delegates 
should  forget,  at  least  for  the  time  being,  their 
affiliations  with  any  other  organizations  than  the 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  or  Native  Daugh- 
ters of  the  Golden  West. 

Let  each  delegate  leave  his  or  her  home  fully 
resolved  to  legislate  for  the  best  interests  of  his 
or  her  Order,  and  self-pledged  to  not  let  personal 
animosities  or  outside  influences  enter  into  his  or 
her  consideration  of  any  matters  properly  pre- 
sented. Then  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlors  of  the 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters of  the  Golden  West  will  go  down  into  the  his- 
tory of  our  organizations  is  the  BEST,  from  every 
point  of  view,  ever  held,  and  each  delegate  will  be 
proud  to  have  his  or  her  name  enrolled  as  a  mem- 
ber  thereof. 


THE  CRIME  AGAEMST  THE  STATE'S  FAIR  N AME 


The  recent  arrest  in  the  East  of  three  men 
charged  with  responsibility  for  the  destruction  of 
a  Los  Angeles  newspaper  plant  ou  October  1st 
last,  vividly  recalled  to  the  minds  of  the  people 
of  California  the  awful  fate  of  twenty-one  men 
who,  while  at  their  posts  of  duty,  were  suddenly 
swept  into  eternity.  While  there  appeared  at  the 
time  to  be  no  reasonable  doubt  but  that  some 
highly  explosive  substance,  placed  with  evil  in- 
tent, was  responsible  for  this  wanton  sacrifice  of 
human  lives,  there  were,  and  still  are,  some  people 
who  believe  that  an  accidental  explosion  of  gas 
was  the  cause  of  that  disaster.  In  fact  when,  after 
six  months  of  activity  on  the  part  of  criminal- 
chasers,  no  trace  eould  be  found  of  the  alleged 
dynamiters,  the  people  of  the  State  generally  were 
beginning  to  believe  in  the  gas  theory  of  the  ex- 
plosion, even  though  several  investigating  commit- 
tees, a  coroner's  jury,  and  a  grand  jury,  had,  after 
thorough  separate  examinations  of  the  ruins,  posi- 
tively declared  the  holocaust  to  have  been  the 
direct  result  of  a  premeditated  dynamiting  outrage. 
Now,  after  more  than  six  months,  one  of  this 
country's  shrewdest  and  most  successful  detectives 
suddenly  imorms  the  people  of  California  that  he 
has  under  arrest  three  men  at  whose  door  he  not 
only  lays  the  Los  Angeles  outrage,  but  as  well 
numerous  other  auairs  of  similar  character.  These 
men  are  to-day  in  the  Los  Angeles  County  Jail, 
specifically  charged,  in  grand  jury  indictments,  with 
the  aestruction  of  twenty-one  human  lives  and  thou- 


sands  of  dollars'  worth  of  property. 

Were  these  men  charged  simply  with  property 
destruction,  their  crime  would  not  so  interest  the 
general  public,  for  property  can  be  restored  and 
the  law's  punishment  of  the  culprits  would,  in  a 
measure,  expiate  their  offense  against  society.  But 
when  one  stops  to  consider,  and  realizes  that  these 
three  men  are  charged  with  snuffiing  out  the  lives 
of  twenty-one  honest  toilers,  with  no  more  concern 
than  they  would  crush  out  the  life  of  a  worm  under 
their  feet,  he  cannot  be  surprised  that  not  only  all 
the  people  of  California,  but  as  well  all  the  people 
of  the  United  States,  are  aroused.  It  is  a  serious 
thing  to  even  charge  these  men  with  such  a  terrible 
offense  against  the  laws  of  God,  as  well  as  man, 
and  if  the  arresting  officers  and  the  grand  jury 
iudictors  have  not  POSITIVE  proof  of  the  guilt  of 
those  under  arrest,  they  have  committed  an  un- 
pardonable offense  against  not  only  the  accused,  but 
the   people   of   California   as   well. 

If  ever  prisoners  at  the  California  bar  of  justice 
deserve  and  should  be  accorded  every  opportunity 
to  prove  their  innocence,  these  three  are  of  thein; 
for  they  are  charged  with  the  blackest  crime  that 
has  ever  clouded  the  State's  fair  name.  If  ever  the 
people  of  this  State  should  not  be  led  to  hasty 
judgment,  it  is  in  this  ease,  now  before  them  in 
the  daily  press;  for  to  be  even  charged  by  the 
police  power  of  the  State,  with  such  an  enormous 
crime  against  God  and  society  is  pre-judging  these 
men   now  in   custody,  to    an    extent    that   will    east

divided  into  two  peri. ids;  that  prior  to  American  occupa- 
tion, and  that  subsequent  thereto.  En  fact,  the  University 
Ikls  signified  a  willingness  to  select  two  men  who  by  train- 
ing and  capacity  have  demonstrated  that  they  are  fully 
equipped  tn  do  this  research  work  for  what  may  be  con-

Secretary  Fred  II.  Jung  was  also  present,  by  invi- 
tation. I  was  elected  chairman  and  F.  A.  Cutler 
secretary. 

Giand  Secretary  Jung  thereupon  officially  in- 
formed Professor  Stephens  of  the  art  ion  of  the 
Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  in  the 
creation  of  the  Fellowship  in  Pacific  Coast  History 
and  authentically  apprised  him,  as  the  representa- 
tive of  the  UniversitVj  of  all  transactions  had  and 
done  in  that  behalf  at  the  Grand  Parlor  at  Lake 
Tahoe.  Professor  Stephens,  in  accepting  the  trust. 
gave  expression  to  the  keen  appreciation  by  the 
University  authorities  of  tne  act  ion  of  the  Grand 
Parlor.  A  general  discussion  was  then  held  by  the 
members  of  the  committee  and  their  invited  guests 
as  to  the  details  of  working  uiit  the  proposition  of 
establishing  the  fellowship,  after  which  the  follow 
ing    regulations   were   adopted    by    the   committee: 

"Candidates  for  the  Fellowship  must  be  graduates  of  a 
university  and  must  have  done  al  least  one  year  of  gradu- 
:it.-   work   upon   Pacific   Coast   History. 

"They  must  present  some  written  work  showing  knowl- 
edge and  power  of  research  upon  sum.-  Bubject  in  the  his- 
tory of  the   Pacific  Coasl 

■  'The  names  of  the  candidates  for  the  Fellowship,  with 
thi-ir  qualifications  ami  evidence  of  their  training  for  his- 
torical research  in  the  form  of  written  work,  shall  be  sub- 
mitted by  the  Department  of  History  of  the  University  of 
California  on  or  about  the  first  of  May  in  each  year,  t.i  a 
committee  chosen  by  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West  at  its  annual  session,  and  the  name  of 
the  candidate  selected  by  the  committee  shall  be  submitted 
to  the  President  of  the  University  of  Caliornia,  to  I"-  an 
nnuneed  by  him  upon  Commencement  Day. 

"A  University  Fellow  in  Pacific  Coast  History  may  be 
a  candidate  for  re-election  to  the  Fellowship  upon  his  sun 
mitting  proof  of  Ins  fitness,  either  by  thoroughness  of  the 
work  done  during  the  year  of  Ins  term  of  Fellowship,  or  by 
promise  for  the  completion  of  larger  investigations. 

"The  Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  shall 
pay  annually  to  the  Reii-oiis  of  the  University  -if  California 
the  sum  of  one  thousand  five  hundred  dollars  for  the  mainte- 
nance of  the   fellowship   in   Pacific  Coast   History." 

On  Class  Day  of  this  year,  upon  an  occasion  when 
the  address  was  delivered  by  ex-President  Theodore 
Roosevelt,  in  the  Greek  Theatre  at  Berkeley,  pub- 
he  announcement  of  the  action  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West  was  made. 

On  May  15,  1911,  an  elaoorate  report  to  the  com 
mittee  from  Professor  Stephens  was  received,  sub- 
mitting the  name  of  Mr.  Lawrence  Palmer  Briggs, 
B.  A.  Michigan  1905,  Ph.  M.  Chicago  1908,  to  be 
University  Fellow  in  Pacific  Coast.  History,  on  be- 
half of  the  Department  of  History  of  the  Univer- 
sity of  California,  whose  nomination  was  promptly 
confirmed,  and  the  name  forthwith  submitted  to 
the  President  of  the  University,  so  that  the  same 
might  be  announced  by  him  upon  Commencement 
Day,  May  17.  1911,  and  the  announcement  was  duly 
made,  al  the  Greet  Theatre  in  Berkeley,  upon  that 
occasion. 

The  report  of  Professor  Stephens  is  a  very  im- 
portant and  intensely  interesting  one,  and  has  been 
senl  to  the  Grand  Secretary,  with  the  official  report 
of  the  committee,  and  will  be  presented  to  the 
Grand  Parlor  for  its  consideration.  The  Order 
could  be  engaged  in  qo  more  important  work,  and  is 
well  on  the  way  to  a  vindication  of  one  of  the  rea- 
sons for  its  existence.

ION  OF 
sANTA  CRUZ  MO 


(Prepared  for  The  Grizzly  Bear  from  Old  Records,  by    STELLA   FINKE.L.DEY,    Past    Grand   President, 

N.    D.    G.    W.,    Santa   Cruz.) 


KEVIOUS  TO  WRITING  OF  THE 
establishment  of  this  Mission,  a  ref- 
erence is  made  to  Santa  Cruz  by 
Father  Palon  in  1775,  at  which  time 
ne  was  on  his  way  from  San  Fran- 
cisco to  ±_onterey.  He  speaks  of 
this  locality  in  this  manner:  "After 
crossing  the  creek  of  Santa  Cruz,  we 
forded  the  river  San  Lorenzo,  which 
is  pretty  large  and  deep,  the  water 
reaenmg  to  the  stirrups.  The  banks 
were  covered  with  sycamore,  cotton- 
wood  and  willow  trees,  and  near  the  crossing,  close 
to  the  hills,  are  many  redwood  trees.  This  place  is 
fit  not  only  for  a  town,  but  for  a  city,  without 
wanting  any  of  the  things  necessary — with  good 
water,  land,  pasture,  wood  and  timber  just  within 
reach,  and  in  srreat  abundance,  and  close  to  Monte- 
rey .bay.  The  town  could  be  put  a  quarter  of  a 
league  from  the  sea,  witn  all  the  said  conveniences, 
through  the  woods  of  this  river  I  saw  the  huts  of 
some  Indians,  though  the  latter  did  not  show  them- 
selves. ' J 

From  San  Diego  to  Monterey  the  coast  had  been 
covered  by  missions,  so  that  nearly  or  quite  all  the 
Indians  of  this  territory  had  been  reached.  Mis- 
sions had  also  been  established  at  Santa  Clara  and 
San  Francisco,  but  no  provision  had  as  yet  been 
made  for  the  xnuians  around  Aplos  and  Santa  Cruz, 
so  the  time  finally  arrived  wnen  it  was  deemed  ad- 
visable to  estaonsn  a  mission  at  this  place.  (As  the 
venerable  Father  Junipero  Serra  died  in  1784,  and 
the  Mission  of  Santa  Cruz  was  not  established  until 
1791,  his  relation  to  this  mission  was  simply  that  of 
the  pioneer  who  had  made  the  road  and  laid  the 
foundation  for  future  religious  work.) 

It  was  on  the  25th  day  of  September,  17S1,  that 
Fathers  Alonzo  Salazar  and  Baldomero  Lopez  ar- 
rived and  pitcned  their  tents  on  the  hill  where  the 
Santa  Cruz  Catholic  churcn  now  stands.  They  began 
their  work  in  a  primitive  way,  with  contributions 
from  the  nearest  miss.ons,  as  follows:  From  Santa 
Clara,  thirty  cows,  five  yoke  of  oxen,  fourteen  bulls, 
twenty  steers  and  nine  horses.  "Two  pairs  of  the 
oxen, ' '  the  record  runs,  ' '  were  very  bad. J '  The 
Carmel   Mission   gave   seven   mules.      San   Francisco 


From  old  documents  standing  in  this  mission  rec- 
ord, we  find  that  scarcely  had  the  friars  arrived 
here,  than  they  applied  themselves  to  calling  around 
them  wandering  tribes  of  Indians,  whom  they  im- 
mediately began  to  instruct,  through  an  interpreter, 
in  the  mystery  of  Christianity.  To  that  end  they 
brought  with  them  other  Indians,  already  baptized 
and   instructed,   to    facilitate   their   work.      From    a 


half  wide,   with   a  vestry   eleven  feet  wide  by   sixteen  and 
one-half  long.      All  these  buildings  formed  of  palisades. 

'  'We  have  inclosed  the  place  for  cattle,  sheep  and 
horses.  We  have  brought  the  water  to  the  mission,  and 
we  have  fenced  the  orchard.  The  tools  used  at  the  mission 
belong  to  other  missions,  and  we  shall  return  them  when 
we  will  receive  those  which  the  king  is  going  to  send. 

"We  brought  with  us  four  candlesticks  of  brass,  a 
painting  of  our  Lady  of  Sorrow,  and  an  image  of  our 
Father    St.    Francis. 

"This  is  a  copy  of  the  original  sent  on  the  31st  day  of 
December,    1791. 

"FR.    BALDOMERO    LOPEZ." 

A  year  and  a  half  passed  away  before  the  erection 
of  the  church  began.  It  was  constructed  of  adobe 
and  timbers  cut  and  hewn  on  the  spot,  and  the  walls 
were  five  feet  thick.  It  took  a  little  more  than  a 
year  to  build  the  church,  which  was  one  hundred 
twelve  and  one-half  feet  long,  twenty-nine  feet  wide, 
and  twenty-five  and  one-half  feet  high.  The  first 
stone  was  laid  on  the  23rd  of  February,  1793,  and 
the   church   was   dedicated   on   the   10th   of   March,

these  five  yoke  of  oxen,  we  had  to  kill  a  pair,  so 
bad  were  they;  and  of  the  seven  mules  received 
from  Carmel,  one  was  so  gentle  that  he  died  three

ten  rams,  and  two  bushels  of  barley.  No  attempt  at

1794.  The  day  of  dedication  was  a  great  occasion. 
Father  Thomas  j^ena  came  over  from  Santa  Clara, 
and  Hermenegildo  Sal,  commanding  officer  of  the 
Presidio  at  San  Francisco,  came  down  with  four  or 
five  priests,  and  thus  mission  life  at  Santa  Cruz 
was  fully  inaugurated^  Like  all  other  missions  in 
this  territory,  it  grew  and  flourished  until  it  was 
secularized  in  1S34,  when  it  shared  the  fate  of  the 
otner  missions  and  declined.  The  history  of  the 
decline  of  the  missions  has  been  written  by  Walter 
Colton. 

According  to  this  record,  in  1830  Santa  Cruz 
mission  had  42,800  head  of  cattle,  3200  head  of 
horses  and  mares,  72,500  sheep,  200  mules  and  large 
herds  of  swine.  The  church  possessed  $25,000  worth 
of  silver  plate.  This  was  t-ie  heyday  of  its  prosper- 
ity. But  while  tine  mission  declined,  and  the  Indian 
went  back  to  his  primitive  condition,  the  Catholic 
Church  has  steadily  advanced  until  now  the  grounds 
once  occupied  by  the  mission  are  adorned  by  one 
of  the  handsomest  structures  in  this  county. 

The  Indians  at  Santa  Cruz  Mission  were  not  all 
of  the  same  tribe,  but  perfect  harmony  prevailed, 
and  when  the  season  of  work  was  over,  many  paid 
visits  to  their  countrymen  and  seldom  returned 
alone,  for  the  good  friars  had  the  art  of  making 
labor  attractive.  The  regulations  of  the  mission 
were  uniform.  At  daybreak,  the  bell  summoned  all  to 
the  church  for  prayers  and  mass,  from  which  they 
returned  to  breakfast.  Then  all  joined  their  respec- 
tive bands  and  proceeded  to  their  regular  labor.  At 
11  o'clock  they  returned  to  dine  and  rested  until  2, 
when  labor  recommenced  and  lasted  until  the  an- 
gelus.  which  was  rung  au  hour  before  sunset.  After 
prayers  and  beads,  all  supped  and  spent  the  evening 
in  innocent  amusements.  Food  consisted  of  fresh 
beef  and  mutton,  plentifully  supplied  by  their  flocks, 
cakes  of  wheat,  and  maize,  peas,  beans,  and  other 
vegetables.  The  dress  of  the  men  was  a  shirt, 
trousers,  and  blanket,  though  the  alcalde  and  chiefs 
of  the  gangs  of  workmen  wore  frequently  the  com- 
plete Spanish  dress.  The  dress  of  the  women  was 
the  ULual  one.  with  the  invariable  blanket. 
Muruer  of  Father   Quintana. 

Four  soldiers  and  a  corporal,  stationed  near  the 
mission,  were  sufficient  to  keep  hundreds  of  Indians 
under  subjection;  or,  with  more  truth,  it  was  kind- 
ness and  religious  influence  of  the  good  friars  that 
had  gained  a  nold  on  the  heart  of  the  poor  Indians. 
However,  for  proper  precaution,  the  fathers  were 
not  allowed  to  travel  far  from  the  mission,  or  go  out 
at  night,  without  the  escort  of  a  soldier  or  two.  The 
neglecting  of  this  system  proved  fatal  to  Father 
Quintana  in  the  year  1812.  Late  at  night,  he  was 
called  down  to  the  orchard,  where  an  Indian  was 
said  to  be  sick.  The  friar,  in  order  not  to  disturb 
the  soldiers  from  their  sleep,  went  alone  with  the 
Indian.  While  returning  from  the  sick  person,  those 
who  were  lying  in  ambush  got  hold  of  the  priest  and 
ordered  him  to  prepare  for  death,  since  he  would 
not  see  his  native  place  any  more.  All  his  entreaties 
were  to  no  avail.     He  was  hanged  from  a  tree  just

he  had  'l"L'i  a  natural  death.  Nevertheless,  his 
friends  had  susj is,  and  they  tooh  prompt  meas- 
ures to  ascertain  the  truth.  From  an  old  paper,  we 
learn  that  a  surgeon  came  from  MLonterej  to  exam 
ine  the   bodj    of  the   murdered   man.   having   in   his 

hands   ai lei     crom    the    commanding   officers    in

discovered.  But  who  bad  done  the  deed?  That  was 
the  dark  and  terrible  secret,  and  for  years  the 
truth  was  withheld.  In  a  singular  manner,  however,

business  to  New  ¥ear's  Point.  He  knew  the  lan- 
guage of  the  .mlians  living  there,  but  those  Indians 
did  nol  know  thai  he  knew  .t.  While  his  dinner  was 
being  preparea  by  them,  he  overheard  some  of  them 
saying  between  themselves:  ''This  fellow  is  from

tended to  be  asleep  while  this  talk  was  going  on,  but 
he  heard  and  understood  all.  He  told  them  not  to 
hurry  about  Ins  dinner  until  he  came  back.  He  soon 
found  a  horse,  made  his  way  oveT  the  mountains  to 
Mission  Santa  Clara,  and  there  told  his  story,  in 
which  was  revealed  the  long-kept  secret  of  the  au-

PERFECT  LAUNDERING  OBTAINABLE 
AT  THE  NEW  METHOD 

There  are  many  reasons — and  they  are  facts — 
why  you  should  patronize  the  NEW  METHOD 
LAUNDRY,  with  works  at  401-411  East  Sixth 
street  and  55^-562  St.  Julian  street,  Los  Angeles, 
and  an  uptown  office  at  209  West  Fourth  street. 
Here  are  some  of  "The  Reasons  Why": 

BECAUSE  we  make  the  life  of  every  garment 
last  twice  Its  ordinary  wear  (whether  it  be  the  finest 
piece  of  silk  or  lace,  or  the  heaviest  possible  article.) 
This  guarantees  the  care  we  take  with  each  pieee 
of   work . 

BECAUSE  we  have  not  spared  pains  or  money  to 
get  every  possible  facility  known  in  the  laundry 
world   to   make   our  plant   perfect  so   that   we   may

please    our    mosl    fasti  did  us    patrons.      (To    see    our 
establishment    will  guarantee  this  statement.) 

BECAUSE  every  article  washed  in  The  Xew 
id  Laundry  is  washed  in  Softened  Water  ob- 
tained  from  our  own  wells  of  which  there  is  a 
capacitv  of  TWO  Hl'XDRED  AND  FIFTY  THOU 
SAND  GALLONS  every  ten  hours.  This  plant  was 
built  at  a  cost  of  $15,000.00.  We  are  positively  the 
only  concern  in  this  city  using  soft  water  ex 
clusively.  (This  guarantees  that  the  garment  will 
be    whiter   and    softer    in    texture.) 

BECAUSE  we  have  our  own  re-inforced  concrete 
three  story  building,  absolutely  fire-proof,  each  door 
having  over  twelve  thousand  square  feet,  with  an 
abundance  of  light.  (This  guarantees  fresh  air  and 
-par-e  in  which  the  work  is  done.)  Your  particu- 
lar attention  is  called  to  the  perfect  light  and  good 
ventilation.  (You  will  note  from  the  different  views 
that  the  windows  extend  from  the  ceiling  down 
thereby  making  an  excellent  light  and  perfect  venti- 
lation.) Our  automatic  sprinkling  system  makes 
our  building  absolutely   fire-proof.

handsome   new    Catholic   church,   the   Holy    Rectory, 


the  Parochial  School,  Montgomery  Hall,  the  Broth 
ers'  House,  and  a  private  home  on  the  corner  of 
High  and  Potrero  streets.  These  all  face  the  old 
plaza,  and  present  one  of  the  most  beautiful  spots 
in  the  city  of  Santa  Cruz.

BECAUSE  we  have  two  hundred  and  sixty  em- 
ployees, of  which  forty-five  are  hand  ironers  on 
ladies'  clothes.  We  re.  pi  ire  each  employee  to  be 
thoroughly  experienced  in  their  line  of  work  before 
they  can  connect  with  this  concern.  (This  guaran- 
tees that  your  work  is  being  done  by  skilled  labor, 
and  not  by  the  apprentice.) 

BECAUSE  we  use  patented  ironing  machines 
which  require  no  motion,  the  pressure  being  done 
by  hand  and  the  heating  by  electricity.  (This 
guarantees   a   uniform    class   of   work.) 

BECAUSE  we  have  our  own  power  plant,  con- 
sisting of  two  generators,  one  100  K.  W.,  and  one 
60  K.  W.  These  are  used  for  heating  our  machines. 
We  also  have  three  mammoth  125  H.  P.  boilers, 
operating  two  engines,  one  135  H.  P.,  and  one  100 
H.  P.  (This  guarantees  our  capacity  for  handling 
any  amount  of  business  with  the  same  care  that 
is  taken  with  a  single  article.) 

BECAUSE  we  have  our  own  re-inforced  concrete 
stable,  operating  a  delivery  service  of  thirty-two 
wagons,  the  same  being  kept  on  the  first  floor,  and 
our  forty-two  head  of  horses  are  kept  on  the  second 
floor.  (This  guarantees  our  efficiency  in  covering 
the  entire   city  daily.) 

BECAUSE  we  extend  an  invitation,  to  the  public 
in  general,  to  visit  and  inspect  this  establishment, 
which  is  a  master-piece  of  Industrial  Construction. 
A  visit  will  prove  that  we  have  not  misrepresented

LADIES,    LISTEN! 

We  are  the  only  laundry  in  the  city  of  Los  \n 
geles  that  washes  every  garment  in  soft  water  ob- 
tained from  our  own  wells.  Your,  ironing  is  done 
by  a  machine  with  no  friction,  which  eliminates  all 
chances  of  having  your  waists  torn  or  scorched. 
Just  the  same  as  you  would  go  to  a  specialist  about 
your  eye — so  ought  you  to  go  to  a  specialist  about 
your  laundry.  If  you  want  your  shoes  half-soled, 
are  you  going  to  a  harness  maker — (he  could  do 
it  for  you  because  he  deals  in  leather)  but  if  yon 
went  to  a  man  who  makes  a  business  of  repairing, 
with  his  knowledge,  he  could  make  your  old  shoes 
look  like  new. 

Now,  if  you  have  a  waist  or  any  garment  to  go 
to  a  laundry,  send  it  to  the  concern  who  has  the 
facilities  to  do  it  properly,  and  it  will  come  back 
looking   like    new. 

We  positively  have  every  known  facility  and  want 
to  impress  upon  your  mind,  THIS— (Not  as  a  boast, 
but  as  a  FACT) :  NO  LAUNDRY  CAN  DO  BET- 
TER  WORK. 

Perhaps  some  can  do  as  well,  but  you  have  tried 
the  others — not  knowing  how  or  where  your  work 
was  done.  Give  the  driver  your  laundry,  when  he 
savs 

THE  NEW  METHOD 
or  telephone* Main  1703,  Home  F1220  and  he  will  call. 


Let  us  impress  you,  Mr.  or  Mrs.  Reader,  that  what 
we  state  are  positive  facts,  and  that  we  have  not 
misrepresented  to  you  one  single  item.  Now,  ac- 
cording to  the   science   of  reasoning   correctly: 

Why  shouldn't  you  be  just  as  particular  as  to 
where  your  laundry  is  done  as  to  where  your  food 
is  prepared?  Your  laundry  is  just  as  important  to 
your  health  and  appearance  and  should  be  given  the 
same  consideration  regarding  cleanliness  and  sa  ni 
tary  conditions  as  the  preparation   of  your  food, 

WHAT    EVERY   MAN    KNOWS 

about  his  laundry  is  simply  how  he  likes  to  have  it 
feel  and  look.  Many  is  the  time  he  has  had  his 
silk  or  French  cuff-shirts  returned  from  the  laundry 
ironed  in  a  careless,  haphazard  fashion,  with  chagrin 
and  disappointment  at  a  time  when  he  wished  to 
appear  his  best.  This  is  a  common  occurrence,  and 
should  you  happen  to  have  had  this  experience  all 
that  we  ask  from  our  men  patrons  is  a  trial. 

WHY  ARE  WOMEN 
skeptical  about  buying  lace  waists  or  any  colored 
material  of  a  delicate  texture?  The  common  ex- 
pression heard  every  day  in  the  dry  goods  store  is: 
''I  like  this  waist,  but  J  am  afraid  the  laundry  will 
ruin  it;"  or  in  talking  to  a  friend,  "This  was 
certainly  a  handsome  garment  before  it  was 
laundered."

June,    191 


MOUNTMI 


DOWN 


(By  COLIN  H.  McISAAC,  Secretary  Santa   Cruz   Chamber   of  Commerce.) 


HERE  IS  BUT  ONE  POINT  ON  THE 
coast  of  California  '  *  where  the 
mountains  come  down  to  the  sea," 
where  ocean  breezes,  cool  and  invig- 
orating, meet  and  blend  with  the 
soft,  balmy  airs  of  tree-clad  moun- 
tains. And  happily  enough,  Santa 
Cruz,  this  delightful  spot,  has  been 
selected  for  this  year's  Grand  Par- 
lor meetings  of  the  Native  Sons  and 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  "West.  And 
June  is  the  time  of  meeting — the 
month  of  months,  when  perfect  summer  weather 
prevails  and  Nature's  lavish  dress  of  vernal  beauty 
is  at  its  brightest  and  best. 

Every  possible  provision  for  the  comfort  and  en- 
joyment of  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters 
has  been  and  is  being  made  in  Santa  Cruz  by  the 
local  Parlors  of  both  Orders  and  the  people  gener- 
ally, and  all  are  assured  of  a  right  royal  welcome 
and  a  splendid  time.  It  is  confidently  expected 
that  the  attendance  will  break  all  previous  records. 
Many  most  cogent  reasons  warrant  this  prediction: 
In  the  first  place,  the  simultaneous  holding  of  the 
annual  meetings  oj.  the  Native  Sons  and  Native 
Daughters  adds  to  the  event  an  unusual  feature, 
promising  to  make  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlors  the 
most  enjoyable  and  most  interesting  ever  held  by 
these  popular  Orders. 

Secondly,  meeting  at  Santa  Cruz  (located  but 
eighty  miles  south  of  San  Francisco)  means  a  cen- 
tral location  affording  features  of  interest,  pleas- 
ure and  entertainment,  and  hotel  and  convention 
hall  facilities  equaled  nowhere  else  in  the  State. 

Among  the  many  allurements  and  interests  of 
Santa  Cruz  are  two  of  paramount  charm:  Historic 
Monterey  Bay,  with  its  picturesque  shore  line  of 
alternating  beach  and  beetling  cliff,  and  the  won- 
derful old  Eedwoods  in  tne  Santa  Cruz  Big  Tree 
Grove,  whose  awe-inspiring  grandeur  and  deep,  sol-

"Never  a   dull   moment"   aptly   describes   Santa

SANTA  CRUZ. 
(To  Santa  Cruz  Parlor  Native  Daughters.) 

High  among  the  giant  red-woods, 

God's  monuments,   outlined 
Against  the  deepening  azure, 

Where  their  tips  with  sky  combine, 
Where  the  woodland  spreads  its  fragrance 

Over  all  the  landscape  free, 
Where  the  murmur  of  the  forest, 

Meets  the  murmur  of  the  sea. 

Gardens  fair  of  stately  lilies. 

Their  purity  defined, 
By  blush  of  crimson  roses. 

Interspersed  with  fruit  and  vine. 
Where  the  purple  tinted  iris 

Woos  the  stream  in  ecstacy; 
Where  the  essence  of  the  valley, 

Meets  the  essence  of  the  sea. 

All  my  days  I'll  sing  your  praises, 

Oh,  Santa  Cruz,  sublime! 
I  toast  your  golden  beauty, 

In  the  product  of  your  vine! 
When  I  dream  of  banks  of  verdure, 

I  would  often,  often  be. 
Where  the  staunch,  majestic  mountains 

Meet  the  dancing,  sunlit  sea.

tiie  shining  sands  before  the  Casino,  a  modern  pala- 
tial shrine  for  the  devotees  of  seaside  delights. 

Among  many  minor. features  of  pastime,  comfort 
and  interest  embodied  in  the  Casino  are  a  fine,  large 
auditorium,  a  modern  grill,  a  salt  water  natatorium 
second  to  none  on  the  coast,  and  ample  accommo- 
dations for  hot  salt  water  tub  baths.  The  Casino 
is  connected  by  an  arcade  hotel  which  opens  its 
hospitable  doors  for  the  first  time  to  welcome  the 
Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  in  June. 

Casa  del  Rey  is  solidly  constructed  of  fireproof 
concrete  in  the  Spanish  style  of  architecture,  mod- 
ern in  every  detail.  The  main  lobby  is  56x70  feet, 
two  stories  high.  A  massive  fireplace,  fifteen  feet 
across,  adds  beauty  as  well  as  creature  comfort. 
From  the  upper  floor  of  Casa  del  Rey  the  Casino  is 
reached  by  an  arcade,  or  enclosed  roof,  thus  bring- 
ing the  two  structures  under  one  roof.  Casa  del 
Rev  has  300  rooms  and  three  large  dining-rooms 
overlooking  Monterey  Bay,  connected  by  a  long  sun 
promenade,  furnished  with  wicker  lounging  chairs, 
hammock  chairs  and  settees  for  the  comfort  of 
guests.  Adjoining  Casa  del  Rey  is  a  block  of 
artistic  cottages  of  two  and  four  rooms,  with  cement 
walks  surrounded  by  gardens.  Altogether  there  are 
here  accommodations  for  1000  guests. 

There  are  in  Santa  Cruz  other  first-class  hotels, 
private  boarding-bouses,  rooming-houses,  etc.  A

ALONG  THE  BEACH  DRIVE 


At  Brookdale,  a  charming  mountain  city  of  beau- 
tiful homes  some  twelve  miles  distant,  is  the  Santa 
Cruz  County  Fish  Hatchery,  where  millions  of  tiny 
fish  are  annually  hatched  for  stocking  the  streams 
of  the  county,  and  which  afford  fine  sport  for  disci- 
ples of  Walton.  Santa  Cruz  is  the  only  county  in 
the  State  owning  and  maintaining  its  own 
fish  hatchery.  Salmon  fishing  on  the  bay  during 
the  summer  season  is  also  a  popular  sport. 

The  street  car  system  of  Santa  Cruz  is  excellent. 
Capitola  and  other  popular  seaside  resorts  are 
reached  from  Santa  Cruz  via  a  five-mile  trolley  ride 
along  the  bay  shore.  There  are  churches  of  all 
denominations,  theaters,  a  public  library  and  up-to- 
date  stores. 

To  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West,  more  than  to  others,  must  appeal  the 
historic  interest  which  belongs  to  Monterey  and  to 
Santa  Cruz,  the  site  of  one  of  the  oldest  missions 
established  by  the  beloved  padres  who  carried  the 
lamp  of  spiritual  and  secular  development  into  the 
beautiful  country  which  constitutes  the  matchless 
State  of  California,  wherein  nativity  constitutes  a 
distinction  which  the  Native  Sons  and  Native 
daughters  live  to  uphold  ana  make  good. 

And  nowhere  in  all  the  world  can  our  California 
born  and  bred  men  and  women  assemble  with  a 
profounder  interest  and  deeper  meaning  than  in 
the  shade  of  the  giant  Redwoods  which  stood  upon 
the  hills  of  Santa  Cruz  in  the  sublime  grandeur  of 
their  own  native  solitude  and  sufficiency  when  Solo- 
mon was  in  his  glory — these  specimens  of  tree  life 
of  years  without  number,  which  constitute  the  most 
beautiful    and    dignmed    emblems    upon    the    escut-

ANTA  CRUZ  COUNTY  HAS  WITH- 
m  its  boundaries  many  places  of  in- 
terest and  scenic  grandeur,  but  to 
the  Native  Son  and  Native  Daugh- 
ter of  the  Golden  West  no  place 
should  be  more  attractive  than 'the 
home  in  Capitola — a  few  moments' 
car-ride  from  the  Grand  Parlors ' 
meeting  place — occupied  by  one  of 
the  State's  earliest  Pioneer  Mothers, 
Martha  Jane  Reed  Lewis,  and  her 
family  of  devoted  children.  Mrs. 
Lewis,  as  the  daughter  of  James  Prazier  Eeed, 
came  to  California  with  the  historic  Reed-Donner 
Party  and  was  one  of  those  who  survived  the  ter- 
rible winter  on  the  banks  of  Conner  Lake  in  1846. 
She  was  then  but  a  child,  but  being  well  preserved 
mentally  and  physically,  the  "little  mother,"  as 
she  is  affectionately  called  by  her  children,  has  a 
distinct  remembrance  of  all  that  occurred  during 
the  trip  across  the  plains,  as  well  as  of  many  of 
the  occurrences  connected  with  California's  history 
after  the  party  had  reached  the  land  of  sunshine. 
The  writer  spent  a  delightful  half-day  recently  in 
the  company  of  this  little  woman,  and  .heard  from 
uer  own  lips  much  to  entertain  anyone  interested 
in  the  State's  early  history,  saw  many  historic  relics 
which  she  has  preserved,  and  listened  to  her  account 
of  the  formation  and  travels  of  that  Argonaut  band 
generally  known  as  the  "Donner"  Party,  but 
which,  if  we  are  to  take  into  consideration  the  tes- 
timony of  those  personally  acquainted  with  its 
organization,  should  justly  be  termed  the  Reed- 
Donner  Party.  Mrs.  Lewis  is  anticipating  the  as- 
semblage '  in    her    midst    of    the    Native    Sons    and 


Mrs.   Martha  Jane  Reed  Lewis, 

As    "Patty  Reed,"   when   she  was   known   as   the   prettiest 

girl   in   California. 


Native  Daughters  of  the  State  her  family,  as  well 
as  she  herself,  helped,  to  model  for  the  future  bene- 
fit of  these  same  sons  and  daughters.  She  hopes  to 
meet  each  one,  ana  with  ali  the  interesting  facts  in 
her  possession,  she  can  assuredly  make  a  visit  to 
her  home  well  worth  one's  time. 

It  is  not  the  writer's  intention,  however,  to  herein 
relate  the  many  interesting  stories  told  by  Mrs. 
Lewis,  for  that  would  tend  in  a  measure,  to  lessen 
the  interest  one  would  have  in  hearing  these  tales 
from  the  relator.  This  article,  therefore,  is  prepared 
to  enlighten  its  readers  as  to  the  real  part  played 
by  James  Frazier  Eeed  in  the  so-called  "Donner" 
Party  drama  of  the  early  days.  Little  has  been 
said  concerning  him,  and  there  appears  to  be  a  de- 
sire in  some  quarters  to  withhold  from  this  long- 
deceased  Pioneer  and  his  family  their  full  measure 
of  fame  as  component  parts  of  that  Argonaut  band. 

The  writer  has  endeavored  to  set  forth  the  facts 
concerning  James  Frazier  Reed,  not  with  any  desire 
to  lessen  the  reverence  all  must  feel  toward  other 
members  of  the  "Donner"  Party,  but  with  the  sole 
intent  of  placing  the  facts  of  Reed's  connection 
with  that  party  before  those  interested,  so  that  his 
memory  may  likewise  be  revered  and  that  we  may 
think  of  him  as  he  really  was — a  whole-hearted  man 


(BY  THE  GRIZZLY.) 

who  knew  no  enmity,  but  who  was  willing  to  lay 
down  his  life  for  the  sake  of  his  fellow-man.  In 
short,  he  was  a  real  Pioneer. 

There  is  perhaps  .no  man  living  to-day  who 
knows  more  of  the  actual  facts  concerning  the 
"Donner"  Party  than  Major  Edwin  A.  Sherman  of 
Oakland,  one  of  the  oldest  California  Pioneers.  He 
has  not  been  content  with  hearing  what  others  had 
to  say  concerning  that  party's  organization  and  trip 
across  the  plains,  but  has  made  it  his  business,  in 
order  to  get  at  tue  trui-i  ox  the  many  published 
accounts,  to  delve  deep  into  those  records  which 
reveal  much  interesting  data  concerning  the  "Don- 
ner" Party.  To  Major  Sherman,  therefore,  our 
readers  are  largely  indebted  for  what  is  herewith 
set  forth. 

Reed  the  Real  Leader. 

There  has  been  a  difference  of  opinion  with  some 
people  as  to  the  real  organization  of  the  expedition 
of  emigrants  from  Springfield,  Illinois,  who  left  that 
place  for  California  on  April  15,  1846,  but  after  the 
most  thorough  investigation,  the  following  extract 
of  a  letter  irom  John  M.  Tipton,  secretary  of  the 
Masonic  Scottish  Rite  Bodies  at  Springfield,  Illinois, 
of  October  9,  1910,  is  as  near  the  truth  as  can  ever 
ue  learned  from  there:  "Tn  relation  to  Comp. 
James  Frazier  Reed  will  say,  that  those  who  knew 
him  are  very  few.  From  inquiries  I  have  made,  I 
learn  that  there  were  two  parties,  one  gotten  to- 
gether by  Comp.  Reed  and  the  other  by  the  Donners. 
Inat  is  to  say,  the  inception  was  for  two,  but  be- 
fore commencing  the  actual  journey  they  united, 
and  it  seems  by  common  consent,  Reed  was  consid- 
ered the  leader,  when  they  left  Springfield  together. 
My  old  friend,  Companion  Fisher,  believes  that 
Comp.  Reed  was  the  business  end  of  the  party  and 
was  necessarily  in  advance,  or  away  considerable  of 
the  time,  and  that  soon  after  leaving  Independence, 
i-.ey  elected  George  Donner  captain,  winch  fact  is 
noted  in  the  history  of  Sangamon  County." 

The  Reed-Donner  Party  left  Springfield,  Illi- 
nois, April  15,  1S46.  On  July  20.  1846,  or  three- 
months  and  five  days  afterward,  at  Little  Sandy, 
George  Donner  was  elected  captain  of  the  train,  as 
they  were  in  the  hostile  Indian  country  and  Reed, 
being  a  military  man  and  experienced  in  hunting 
and  fighting  Indians  in  the  Black  Hawk  War,  thir- 
teen years  before,  devoted  himself  as  a  scout  and  an 
advance  guard  ahead  of  the  train  for  safety,  and  to 
select  the  camping  places.  In  case  of  a  hostile  at- 
tack, he  would  have  again  been  the  real  captain  in 
command  in  defense,  as  his  subsequent  service  in  the 
battle  of  Santa  Clara  proved  him  to  be  a  leader. 

If  there  is  any  other  evidence  older  than  the 
original  letter  written  to  James  Frazier  Reed  from 
Independence  in  1S45 — a  copy  of  which  is  given  be- 
low— and  which  clearly  shows  that  Reed  was  at 
that  time  planning  the  trip  to  California  and  was 
at  that  early  date  organizing  the  company  which 
later  oeeame  known  to  many  as  the  "Donner" 
jfarty,  such  evidence  has  never  been  publicly  pro- 
duced, and  therefore  should  convince  the  most 
doubtful  that  Reed,  and  not  the  Donners,  was  the 
originator  of  the  "Donner"  Party: 

(EXACT    COPY.)  , 
"Independence,  Nov.  10th,  1845. 

"Mr.  James  F.  Reed — Dear  Sir:  It  is  with  great 
pleasure  that  I  embrace  this  opportunity  to  answer 
your  kind  note,  and  it  will  do  me  great  pleasure  to 
give  you  all  the  information  on  the  subject  that  I 
can,  and  I  would  of  done  it  before  this  time,  but  I 
have  been  waiting  to  learn  some  few  things,  and  it 
is  very  hard  for  me  to  give  you  a  correct  answer, 
unless  I  know  what  way  you  intend  to  go,  whether 
you  intend  to  go  by  Santa  Fe  or  whether  you  in- 
tend to  travel  the  Oregon  rtoute. 

"If  you  intend  to  go  by  Santa  Fe,  you  had  better 
in  the  first  place,  get  you  a  large  wagon,  made 
about  3  inches  in  the  tread  and  will  bear  about  6 
thousand  pounds  and  have  you  5  yoke  of  first  rate 
cattle,  &  the  goods  you  take  must  be  bleached  and 
Brown  Muslins  and  Calico  of  high  colors  very  dis- 
tinct, but  if  you  take  these  in  the  Spanish  country 
you  will  have  to  pay  about  from  5  &  750  hundred 
Dollars  on  the  wagon,  without  you  can  smuggle  them 
in,  and  then,  if  they  find  it  out.  they  will  take  them 
from  you  and  imprison  you.  They  are  very  strict, 
but  there  is  a  great  many  goods  smuggled  in.  But 
I  would  be  afraid  to  try  it  with  my  family  with  me. 
You  can  trade  a  good  many  brown  muslins  on  the

here  and  Santa  Fe. 


"You  spoke  something  about  your  expenses.  You 
will  be  at  no  expense  after  you  leave  here  until  you 
get  to  the  Spanisn  settlements.  But  if  you  go  the 
Oregon  Route,  you  will  be  at  no  expense,  for  you 
will  see  no  person  to  sell  goods  to,  until  you  get  to 
some  of  the  Forts;  then  you  can  trade  Brown  or 
Bleached  Muslins  or  Calieo,  or  anything  of  that  kind 
for  corn  or  bacon,  but  you  had  better  take  with  you, 
about  2  or  3  years'  supply  with  you,  of  all  kinds  of 
goods;  such  a~s  shoes  and  brown  muslins. 

"Upon  reflection,  the  advice  I  gave  you  in  regard 
to  the  wagon  is  not  right,  without  yon  intend  to 
take  with  you,  a  good  many  goods,  it  will  be  too 
large;  your  cattle  cannot  stand  to  go  to  California. 
You  had  better  get  you  a  good  family  ox  wagon. 
There  is  a  good  prospect  for  a  large  company  for 
Oregon,  next  spring,  and  you  had  better  get  here 
the  first  of  April  if  you  can,  or  by  the  middle  at 
farthest.  You  can  get  all  sorts  of  supplies  here,  if 
you  don't  want  to  haul  them.  Bacon,  Flour,  Meal  & 
cheaper  than  you  can  get  them  at  home. 

"You  will  have  a  long  and  tedious  journey  before 
you,  and  you  had  better  make  good  preparation. 
Get  good  large  oxen,  and  if  yon  take  any  horses  at 
all,  take  mules,  one  good  horse  for  Buffalo  Horse. 
A  mule  will  not  do  to  kill  buffalo  as  they  are  not 
fleet  enough.  Get  you  a  good  gun  with  about  an 
ounce  ball  and  a  good  flint  lock. 

' '  I  believe  I  have  nothing  else  of  importance  to 
write.  I  wish  you  all  the  luck  in  the  world.  Don  't 
be  puny,  get  a  good  outfit,  and  the  journey  is  noth- 
ing in  comparison  to  what  our  forefathers  went 
through.  Dont  forget  to  take  plenty  to  eat,  and 
all  the  money  you  can.  Money  is  good  wherever  in 
the  world.  You  will  trade  a  good  deal  with  the 
Indians,  if  you  will  take  blue  calico,  and  beads  in 
little  narrow  Red,  Blue  and  Green  Ribbon. 

"Give  my  best  respects  to  all  my  friends,  and 
that  will  be  everybody  in  Sangamon  County.  Let 
the  older  men  know  that  you  got  a  letter  from  me,

It  would,  therefore,  appear  that  the  name  "Don- 
ner''* Party  is  a  misnomer,  as  the  Donner  families 
in  reality  joined  with  Reed's  party  for  the  trip  to 
California,  after  Reed  had  made  all  the  arrange- 
ments and  marked  out  the  route.  Reed  acted  as 
guide  to  the  party,  and  was  in  advanee  of  the  cara- 
van. Just  prior  to  reaching  Donner  Lake.  Reed  took 
exception  to  one  of  the  men  in  the  party  beating  his 
oxen  over  the  head,  and  suggested  that  they  could 
oe  better  coaxed  forward  than  forced.  This  man 
made  a  murderous  attack  on  Reed,  and  in  the 
scuffle  following  the  man  was  killed.  Reed  was  tried 
by  the  male  members  of  the  party,  sentenced  to 
oanishment  from  the  train,  and  was  forced  to  leave 
his  wife  and  family  behind.  He  made  the  trip  on 
foot  the  rest  of  the  way  and  arrived  in  California 
long  in  advance  of  the  rest  of  the  party.  He  was 
one  of  the  first  to  organize  a  relief  expedition  when 
ne  heard  of  the  party's  awful  sufferings  at  Donner 
Lake,  and  succeeded  in  rescuing  thirteen  of  those 
who  had  survived  the  winter,  including  three  of  his 
own  family  and  some  of  those  who  had  exacted  of 
him  the  awful  punishment  of  banishment  without 
horse,  food  or  arms.

Masonic  rraLeruity  Knows  Reed's  Record. 

James  Frazier  Reed  was  tor  many  years  afterward 

>r  Santa  Clara  County's  toremosl   citizens,  and 

owned  a  considerable  portion  of  the  land  therein 
embraced.     In    L851    he  and   Ins  wife,   Margarel    W. 

Reed,  d led  bo  the  City  of  San  Jose,  "in  trust,  for 

the  use,  benefit  and  behoof  of  the  inhabitants  there- 
of, parcels  of  property  .  nown  on  the  plot  of  thai 
city  as  Saint  John's  Square,  East  Square.  Santa 
Rosa  Square,  Saint  James  Square  and  Washington 
Square.  Reed  was  a  comrade  of  Abraham  Lincoln  in 
the  I  :la.-k  Hawk  War  of  1832  and  First  Lieutenant 
of  Captain  Charles  M.  Weber's  Company  of  United 
States  Rangers  of  the  Pueblo  of  San  .lost*,  and  was 
a  great  factor  in  defeating  the  enemy  in  the  battle 
of  Santa  i  lara,  January  l\  1847.  He  was  also  the 
Mrst  duly  authenticated  Mason  to  cross  the  Sierra 
Nevada  Mountains  and  arrive  in  California  by 
land.  All  tins,  concerning  James  Praziei  Reed,  is 
Dot  hearsay;  on  the  contrary,  it  is  given  uncontro- 
\  bi  i  ible  credence  in  affidavits,  duly  recorded,  of 
men  who  would  have  no  purpose  in  subscribing  their 
names  to  untruthful  or  misleading  documents,  as 
they  had  no  other  interest  in  the  history  of  this 
Pioneer  party,  other  than  to  see  justice  done  every 
member  of  it. 

Here  is  the  certificate  from  Captain  Weber:  "This 
is  to  certify,  that  Mr.  James  P.  Keed,  has  been  act- 
ing as  First  Lieutenant  in  the  Mounted  Rifle  Coni- 
panie  at  the  Pueblo  of  St.  Joseph  during  the  time  of 
one  month  and  a  half.  On  the  present  occasion,  i 
take  great  pleasure  to  state,  that  said  Mr.  James  F. 
Reed  has  acted  in  the  capacity  of  First  Lieutenant 
to  my  entire  Satisfaction.  1  acknowledge  hereby  the 
important  Service  which  he  rendered  to  his  Connty 
by  Ins  Knowledge  and  Experience  of  an  old  Soldier. 
His  gallant  Conduct  on  the  2nd  of  January  on  the 
Plains  of  Sta  Clara  (on  which  day  he  contributed 
greatly  to  the  victory  over  the  insurgent  Calit'or- 
nians),  merits  the  highest  Praises, 

"CHARLES  M.  WEBER. 

"Pueblo  of  St.  Joseph.  January  26th,  1847." 

And  then  again,  we  have  this  attest  from  the  Ma- 
sonic body,  which  shows  that  Reed  had,  before  em- 
barking on  his  long  trip  across  the  plains,  been  fore- 
armed with  a  certificate  of  his  standing  in  that  fra- 
ternity: "We  the  Chiefs  of  Royal  Arch  Chapter, 
No.  One,  held  under  the  Jurisdiction  of  the  Gen '1 
Grand  Holy  Royal  Arch  Chapter  of  the  U.  States  of

and  well  beloved  Companion  James  F.  Reed,  is  with 
us  a  regular  registered  Royal  Arch  Mason  of  our

ducted himself  with  honor  and  integrity.  We  there- 
tore  recommend  him  to  all  the  Companions  around

"('.  MAlilKNY,  S." 

On  April  19th,  this  year,  the  M.  E.  Grand  Chapter 
of  the  Royal  Arch  Masons  of  California  appointed 
Major  Edwin  A.  Sherman  chairman  of  a  delega 
tion  to  hold  memorial  services  at  the  grave  of 
James  Frazier  Reed — "the  first  duly  authenticated 
..raster  Mason  and  Royal  Arch  Mason  to  arrive  in 
California  (on  October  23,  1846),  across  the  Sierra 
Nevada  Mountains'' — in  San  Jose,  Decoration  Day, 
hiay  30th.  It  is  the  intention  to  erect  at  an  early 
date  over  the  remains  of  this  worthy  Pioneer  a 
fitting  monument,  which  will  express  the  long- 
delayed,  but  well-deserved,  gratitude  of  the  recipi- 
ents of  his  beneficence. 

With  this  mass  of  evidence  as  to  the  real  origin- 
ator, guide  and  rescuer  of.  the  "  Donner ' '  Party — 
and  much  more  not  published,  but  nevertheless  con- 
vincing— does  it  not  seem  strange  that  our  histor- 
ians have  almost  entirely  eliminated  from  their 
works  any  reference  to  James  Frazier  Reed?  Tak- 
ing into  consideration  all  that  he  suffered,  and  all 
tin-  good  deeds  that  he  performed,  even  for  the  sal- 
vation of  his  detractors,  is  it  not  queer  that  his 
name  does  not  appear  in  the  title  of  the  very  party 
winch  he  got  together,  and  a  considerable  number  of 
which  h.'  later  saved  from  an  awful  fate? 

Justice  to  Reed's  Memory  in  Our  Monument. 
The  Native  Sons  and  native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West,  who  are  to-day  enjoying  the  fruits  of 
the  labors  of  the  Pioneers,  should  be  careful  that, 
in  [laying  homage  to  these  Argonauts  they  do  not 
slight  the  memory  of  one  whose  lire-record  stands 
out  as  a  shining  example  of  the  bravery  and  big- 
heartedness  of  our  ancestors.  It  should  be  their 
especial  aim  to  not  aid  in  any  attempt  to  ignore 
those  who  have  accomplished  recognized  great  deeds, 


but    rather  to  see  to  it   that   every    I'ioneer  Father  and 

Mother  is  accorded  Ins  or  her  lull  share  of  glory  in 

any  monuments  that  may  be  erected  to  perpetuate 
t  heir  pioneer  tleeds. 

Are  they  doing   thisl     Eave  they  given  as  h 

recognition  to  tin'  memory  of  James  i  ra/.ier  ReeJ 
and    Ins  faninv  as  to  1  lie    Moaners  and  their  families.' 

Ila\e  they  carefully  investigated  tin-  history  of  the 

so  called  •  •  1  tanner      Party,  from  beginning  t<>  end. 

or  have  lliey  been  Content  to  accept  the  record  as 
passed  out  to  them  by  those  who  have  heard  but 
One  side  of  that  interesting  history,  and  whose  in- 
vestigations appear  to  have  been  confined  exclu 
sively  to  the  end  of  the  journey. 

In  naming  their  committee,  that  has  in  hand  the 
erection  of  a  monument  on  Donner  Lake,  the 
"Donner  Monument  'Committee,"  and  in  referring 
in  their  records  to  That  proposed  monument  as  the 
"Donner"  monument,  are  they  not  dealing 
unjustly  with  the  other  men  and  women  in  the 
Reed-Donner  party  who  were  just  as  much  Pioneers, 
and  just  as  much  entitled  to  have  their  names  im- 
mortalized in   stone,   as  the    Donners.' 

Did  the  Donners — and  the  writer  believes  them 
entitled  to  all  the  glory  bestowed  upon  them — en- 
dure more  suffering,  make  more  sacrifices  and  per- 
form more  heroic  deeds  than  the  Reeds  or  any  of  the 
others?  Why,  then,  should  we  single  out  the  Don- 
ners for  our  monument  ?  The  Donners,  Reeds,  et  al., 
were  individuals  in  the  same  caravan  of  Argonauts, 
traveled  the  same  roads,  and  were  bound  for  the 
same  land.  All  were  Pioneers.  Every  record  goes 
to  prove  that  their  lot  was  a  common  one. 

Let  us  erect  the  monument  at  Douner  Lake,  by 
all  means,  and  make  it  grand  and  inspiring.  But 
no  matter  to  what  height  that  monument  rises,  it 
will  typify  the  smallness  of  our  organizations  if  we 
erect  it  to  the  memory  of  the  "Donner"  Party.  And 
our  committee  will  be  justly  reckoned  as  prejudiced, 
if  we  continue  it  under  the  title  of  "Donner  Mon- 
ument Committee." 

Let  us.  above  all  else,  be  fair  to  all  the  Pioneers. 
Let  us  look  upon  them  as  a  conquering  band  of 
heroes  who  left  their  Eastern  homes  and  faced  the 
dangers  of  the  unknown  West  to  win  and  build  for 
us  this  empire.  Any  monument,  no  matter  how 
grand,  that  does  not  give  full  credit  to  all  those 
who  constituted  the  Reed-Donner  Party,  without 
special  reference  to  any  one  family  of  that  party, 
is  of  no  value  whatever,  and  had  better  never  be 
erected. 

Taking  all  phases  of  the  question  into  considera- 
t.on,  the  writer  suggests  that,  in  order  that  the 
Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  be  placed  in  the 
proper  light  in  the  public  eye,  and  in  order  that 
those  Orders  shall  honor  the  memory  of  ALL  those 
worthy  oi  their  memorial,  the  Santa  <  Iruz  Grand 
Parlors  should  do  either  one  of  two  things — and,  to 
tue  writer's  mind,  preferably  the  former: 

Officially  recognize  the  proposed  monument  as  the 
i  loneer  Monument,  and  aesignate  the  committee 
the  Pioneer  Monument  Committee.     Or, 

Officially  recognize  the  proposed  monument  as 
the  Reed-Donner  monument,  and  designate  the  com- 
mittee the  Reed-Donner  Monument  Committee. 

— C.  M.  H. 


Generally   it   is  all    right   to   take   things  as   they 
come,  but  it  is  dangerous  to  take  a  goat  that  way.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR

-j  ANIEL  A.  RYAN  OF  SAN  FRAN- 
eisco,  Grand  President  of  the  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  will  call 
the  thirty-fourth  annual  session  of 
the  Grand  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  to  or- 
der in  the  spacious  auditorium  at  the 
Casino,  Santa  Cruz,  on  Monday,  June 
12th,  at  10  a.  m.  Fred  H.  Jung,  the 
efficient  Grand  Secretary,  will  be  at 
his  post  to  aid  in  dispatching  the 
business  of  the  session.  The  other 
grand  officers  who  will  be  in  attend- 
ance include:  Junior  Past  Grand  President,  Joseph 
R.  Knowland  of  Oakland;  Grand  First  Vice-Presi- 
dent, Herman  U.  Lichtenberger  of  Los  Angeles; 
Grand  Second  Vice-President,  Clarence  E.  Jarvis  of 
Sutter  Creek;  Grand  Third  Vice-President,  Thomas 
Monahan  of  San  Jose;  Grand  Treasurer,  John  E. 
McDougald  of  San  Francisco;  Grand  Marshal, 
Angelo  Rossi  of  San  Francisco;  Grand  Inside  Senti- 
nel, Frank  McAllister  of  Berkeley;  Grand  Outside 
Sentinel,  Thomas  J.  Curtin  of  San  Francisco; 
Grand  Trustees — Bismarck  Brack  of  St.  Helena, 
Frank  M.  Rutherford  of  Truckee,  Judge  J.  E.  Bar- 
ber of  Redding.  Judge  Emmet  Seawell  of  Santa 
Rosa,  Louis  H.  Mooser  of  San  Francisco,  and  Judge 
Robert  M.  Clarke  of  Ventura.  One  grand  officer  who 
will  not  be  present,  on  account  of  absence  in  Europe, 
and  who  will  be  sadly  missed,  as  his  jovial  counte- 
nance has  been  seen  at  Grand  Parlor  sessions  for  lo, 
these  many  years,  is  Grand  Organist  Henry  G.  W. 
Dinkelspiel  of  San  Francisco. 

j.t  will  prove  interesting,  no  doubt  to  many  mem- 
bers of  the  Order,  to  know  where  the  previous 
Grand  Parlor  sessions  have  been  held  the  past 
thirty-three  years,  and  who  presided  at  each  one. 
The  Grizzly  Bear  therefore  presents  this  informa- 
tion herewith,  gleaned  from  the  records  of  the  Order 
since  the  formation  of  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  Na- 
tive Sons  of  the  Golden  West:  At  the  first  session, 
held  in  San  Francisco,  November  30,  187S,  Henry 
Clay  Chipman  of  Sacramento  Parlor,  No.  3,  was  the 
temporary  chairman  on  organization,  and  W.  G. 
Hawkett  of  Oakland  Parlor,  No.  2,  was  elected 
permanent  Grand  President.  The  Order  at  this 
time  had  but  three  Subordinate  Parlors — California, 
No.  1,  Oakland,  No.  2,  and  Sacramento,  No.  3 — and 
the  election  of  Hawkett  created  considerable  ill- 
feeling,  because  California  Parlor  believed  itself  en- 
titled to  the  honor. 

At  the  second  session,  held  in  San 
Francisco,  June  10,  1879,  Grand 
President  Hawkett  did  not  preside, 
owing  to  the  ill-feeling  existing,  and 
the  seats  of  all  grand  officers  elected 
at  the  first  session  were  declared  va- 
cant. Jasper  Fishbourne  was  theu 
elected  temporary  Grand  President, 
and  later  in  the  session  his  selection 
was  made  permanent. 

The  third  session  was  held  in  San 
Francisco,  June  1,  1880,  and  in  the 
absence  of  Grand  President  Fish- 
bourne,  Frank  D.  Ryan  was  chosen 
as  acting  Grand  President,  and  pre- 
sided until  the  election  of  grand 
officers,  when  Frank  J.  Higgins  was 
chosen  as  Grand  President  for  the 
ensuing  year.  The  Order  having  be- 
gun to  expand,  and  there  necessarily 
being  more  Parlors  represented  in  the 
Grand  Parlor  by  delegates,  there  was 
no  more  friction  over  the  selection 
of  grand  officers,  and  the  regularly 
elected  Grand  Presidents  presided  at 
the  several  sessions  as  follows:

GRAND   PARLOR   OFFICE    CANDIDATES. 

Since  the  May  issue  of  The  Grizzly  Bear,  there  has 
been  very  little  change  iu  the  outlook  for  Grand 
Parlor  office  contests.  It  is  now  certain,  however, 
that  Fred  H.  Jung  of  Stanford  Parlor.  San  Fran- 
cisco, who  has  most  acceptably  tilled  the  office  of 
( i  rami  Secretary  the  past  two  years,  will  have  an 
opponent  in  the  person  of  R.  D.  Barton  of  Sequoia 
Parlor,  San  Francisco,  who  has  been  a  delegate 
to  numerous  Grand  Parlors  and  who  has  been  very 
active  in  the  Order's  behalf  in  his  home  city. 

Kven  the  Grand  Treasureship  is  not  to  go  uncon- 
tested this  year.  John  McDougald  of  California  Par- 
lor, San  Francisco,  who  has  had  the  honor  for  many 
years — and  who  has  been  in  so  many  Grand  Parlors 
that  it  would  be  telling  how  old  he  i*  to  state  the 
number — will  have  to  do  some  lively  "resoluting' ' 
if  he  doesn't  want  to  lay  down  the  honors  of  Grand 
Treasurer  to  Angelo  J.  Rossi  of  El  Dorado  Parlor, 
San  Francisco,  who  now  occupies  the  position  of 
Grand  Marshal  and  has  a  large  following  among  the 
younger  members  of  the  Order. 

No  one  seems  certain  enough  of  the  outcome  of 
the  Grand  Third  Vice-Presidency  contest  to  venture 
an  opinion  as  to  who  will  win.  It  has  been  many 
a  day  since  Grand  Parlor  delegates  have  had  to 
choose  between  two  as  equally  popular  members  I'm 
this  "stepping  stone  to  the  Grand  Presidency,''  as 
are  presented  in  the  candidacies  of  Louis  H.  Moos'er 
oi  Presidio  Parlor,  San  Francisco,  and  Bismarck 
Bruck  of  St.  Helena  Parlor,  St.  Helena.  Both  are 
at  present  members  of  the  Board  of  Grand  Trustees, 
have  been  t'aitm  nl  officials,  and  are  unceasing  in 
their  work   for  the  Order. 

A  candidate  for  Grand  Marshal  has  come  forward 
during  the  month,  and  Santa  Rosa  Parlor  will  pre- 
sent the  name  of  J.  < '.  Smith,  provided  it  is  decided 
to  hold  the  Admission  Day  celebration  in  Santa 
Rosa,  which  now  seems  assured. 

For  Grand  Inside  Sentinel,  no  one  has  been  put 
forward  as  a  candidate  against  Thomas  J.  Curtin  of 
Dolores  Parlor.  San  Francisco.  The  Grand  Outside 
Sentinelship  has  so  far  three  aspirants — Andrew  S. 
Groth  of  mission  Parlor,  San  Francisco;  C.  P.  Mos- 
coni  of  Seaside  Parlor,  Halfmoon-  Bay,  and  W. 
DeBlois  of  Brooklyn   Parlor,  Oakland. 

The  list  of  candidates  for  Grand  Trustees  (seven 
to  be  elected)  appears  to  be  the  only  one  that  has 
Dot  ceased  growing,  as  the  past  month  has  brought 
forth  two  additional  candidates.  As  far  as  The  Griz- 
zly Bear  can  learn,  the  complete  list  of  candidates 
to  date  includes:  Emmet  Seawall,  Santa  Rosa  Par- 
lor, No.  28,  Santa  Rosa  (incumbent);  John  F. 
Davis,  Excelsior  Parlor.  No.  31,  Jackson  (incum- 
bent); Robert  M.  Clarke,  Cabrillo  Parlor,  No.  114, 
Ventura  (incumbent);  J.  E.  Barber,  McCloud  Par- 
lor, No.  149,  Redding  (incumbent) ;  Frank  M.  Ruther- 
ford, Donner  Parlor,  No,  162,  Truckee  (incumbent); 
Ted  C.  Atwood,  Placerville  Parlor,  No.  9,  Placer- 
ville;  Milliard  E.  Welch.  Lodi  Parlor.  No.  IS.  Lodi; 
John  Straub.  Sunset  Parlor,  No.  26,  Sacramento; 
John  H.   Nelson.  San  Francisco  Parlor,  No.  49,  San 


Francisco;  EC.  Clay  Kellogg,  Santiago  Parlor,  No. 
71,  Santa  Ana;  Willetl  Ware,  Santa  Cruz  Parlor, 
No.  90,  Santa  Cruz;  Max  Licht,  Bay  City  Parlor, 
No.  104,  San  Francisco;  A.  J.  Falvey,  National 
Parlor.  No.  L18,  San  Francisco;  J.  J.  Me  Kirov,  Pied- 
mont Parlor,  No.  L20,  Oakland;  Louis  F.  Erb.  Al 
cable  Parlor,  No.  lot,  San  Francisco;  \\'m.  P. 
Caubu,  South  San  Francisco  Parlor,  No.  157,  3an 
Francisco;  Dr.  W.  A.  Gaston,  Observatory  Parlor, 
No.  177,  San  Jose;  Gh  P.  Welch,  Precita  Parlor, 
No.  187,  San  Francisco;  W.  II.  Dwyer,  Athens  Par- 
lor, No.  L95,  Oakland;  Frank  McAllister,  Berkeley 
Parlor,  No.  210,  Berkeley;  Charles  J.  Powers,  Twin 
Teaks   Parlor.   No.   214,  San   Francisco. 

There  appears  to  be  no  intention  to  contest  Hie 
right  of  the  Ciand  Vice-Presidents  to  advance  one 
round  in  the  official  ladder,  so  that  it  is  reasonably 
Bafe  to  say  that  Herman  C.  Lichtenberger  of 
Ramona  Parlor,  Los  Angeles,  will  become  the  Grand 
President;  Clarence  B.  Jarvis  of  Amador  Parlor, 
Sutter  Creek,  the  Grand  First  Vice-President,  and 
Thomas  Monahan  of  San  Jose  Parlor,  San  Jose, 
the  Grand  Second  Vice-President.  As  a  matter  of 
course,  Daniel  A.  Ryan  of  Pacific  Parlor,  San  Fran- 
cisco, will  succeed  to  the  office  of  Junior  Past  Grand 
President,  and  Joseph  R.  .Kuowland  of  Alameda 
Parlor,  Alameda,  will  join  the  college  of  Senior 
Past    (Irand   Presidents. 

Under  the  Grand  Parlor  laws,  nomination  for 
others  shall  be  made  and  closed  the  second  day  of 
the  session — this  year,  Tuesday,  June  13th;  election 
of  officers  shall  be  held  the  last  day  of  the  session. 
There  is  no  definite  length  of  time  prescribed  for 
the  Grand  Parlor  sessions,  the  law  simply  provid- 
ing that  it  "shall  continue  to  meet  from  day  to 
day  consecutively  (Sundays  excepted),  until  the  busi- 
ness of  the  session  has  been  concluded."  As  Friday 
has  generally  been  the  last  day  of  the  sessions,  it 
is  very  likely  the  grand  officers  will  be  chosen  June 
16th.  The  law  provides  further  that  the  Australian 
ballot  system  shall  be  used  in  the  selection  of  offi- 
cials. This  was  first  put  into  effect  at  the  1910 
session,  and  met  with  the  hearty  approval  of  all  as 
it  saves  time  ana  permits  of  the  carrying  on  of  the 
l  irand   Parlor  business  without  annoyance. 


JUNIOR   ORDER  WANTS  ENDORSEMENT. 

The  Junior  Order  of  Native  Sons  will  ask  the 
Grand  Parlor's  endorsement,  in  line  with  a  report 
to  be  submitted  by  the  committee  authorized  by 
the  last  Grand  Parlor  to  investigate  the  organiza- 
tion of  young  native  sons  and  report  at  the  Santa 
Cruz  session.  Through  deputies  of  the  organization 
— Michael  M.  McLaughlin  of  California  Parlor  No. 
1,  Jr.  O.N. S. ;  Eugene  E.  Fischer  of  Presidio  Parlor, 
No.  2,  Jr.  O.  N.  S..  and  W.  C.  Eisensehimel,  of 
Balboa  Parlor,  No.  3,  Jr.  O.  N.  S. — wno  are  also 
members  of  the  N.  S.  G.  W.,  the  following  letter  has 
been  sent  to  all  the  delegates  to  the  Santa  Cruz 
Grand  t  arlor: 

San   Francisco,   May    7th. 

To  the  Delegates  of  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  Na- 
tive Sons  of  the  Golden  West — Dear  Sirs  and 
Brothers:  At  the  coming  session  of  the  Grand  Par 
lor  which  will  convene  at -Santa  Cruz  on  June  12, 
1911,  the  matter  of  the  endorsement  by  the  Grand 
Parlor  of  the  Junior  Order  of  Native  Sons  will 
be  brought  to  the  attention  of  the  delegates  for 
their  approval.  At  the  Grand  Parlor  of  1910,  held 
at  Lake  Tahoe,  the  Grand  President  appointed  a 
committee  to  investigate  the  Junior  Order  and 
report  to  the  session  of  the  Grand  Parlor  in  1911. 
This  committee  will  report  its  findings,  and  we 
have  every  reason  to  believe  that  the  report  will 
be  favorable  to  the  organization  of  Junior  Parlors 
under  the  supervision  of  the  Grand  Parlor. 

A  number  of  Junior  Parlors  are  now  organized, 
and  have  drum  corps,  and  also  a  band  composed 
of  junioT  members.  These  parlors  hold  regular 
meetings,  and  as  a  result  the  Order  of  the  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West  will  be  strengthened  by 
the  addition  of  these  young  men  when  they  arrive 
at  t  he  proper  age  for  admission  into  our  Order. 
We  sincerely  request  that  you  give  this  important 
matter  your  closest  attention,  and  that  you  will 
favorably  consider  the  organization  of  Junior  Par- 
lors in  this  State,  under  the  direct  supervision  of 
the    Grand    Parlor. 

Fraternally,  in  F.  L.   and  C,

nearly  thirty  young  men.  residents 
of  t  he  city  n  ho  were  na1  Ives  of  Cali- 
fornia. The  meeting  was  presided 
over  by  1).  I >.  '..  1*.  James  Hopkins,  Jr.,  of  Wat 
sonville  Parlor,  who  explained  to  those  present  tin- 
aims  and  objects  of  the  Order  and  the  principles 
upon  which  it  was  founded — patriotism,  friendship, 
loyalty  and  charity..  At  that  time  a  permanent 
organization  was  formed  and  application  made  to 
the  Grand  Parlor  for  a  charter. 

On  the  evening  of  August  21,  1886,  at  Odd  Pel- 
lows'  hall.  Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  90,  N.  S.  G.  W., 
was  duly  and  regularly  instituted;  the  official  char- 
ter received,  bylaws  adopted,  and  the  first  set  of 
Parlor  officers  installed.  The  grand  officers  present 
at  the  time,  and  who  conducteu  the  appropriate  cer- 
emonies necessary  to  tne  Parlor's  proper  institution, 
were:  Charles  W.  Decker  of  San  Francisco,  (irand 
President;  C.  H.  Garoutte  of  Woodland,  Grand  Vice- 
President;  Henry  Lunstedt  of  San  Francisco,  (irand 
Secretary;  Thomas  Flint,  Jr.,  of  Holhster,  Grand 
Treasurer;  M.  A.  Dorn  of  San  Francisco,  Grand 
Trustee  and  D.  D.  G.  P.-at-Large.  Many  visiting 
brothers  from  other  Parlors  were  also  present  and 
assisted  in  the  work,  the  neighboring  Parlors  of 
Watsonville,  Gilroy  and  Monterey  being  well  rep- 
resented, among  them  being:  James  \V.  Travers  of 
Alameda  and  James  Hopkins,  Jr.,  of  Watsonville,  D. 
D.  G.  Ps. ;  A.  W.  Furlong,  president,  and  Mr.  Langf ord 
of  Gilroy  Parlor;  F.  M.  Hilby,  president  of  Monte- 
rey Parlor;  H.  P.  Stabler,  trustee  of  butter  Parlor, 
Yuba  City;  Mr.  Morris  of  Stockton  Parlor;  Frank 
B.  Ryan,  from  one  of  the  San  Francisco  Parlors; 
Robert  T.  Devlin,  of  Sacramento  Parlor;  and  W.  R. 
Porter,  first  vice-president,  R.  E.  Woodworth,  second 
vice  president.  W.  S.  Burbank,  recording  secretary, 
J.  J.  McMahon,  marshal,  J.  A.  Hall,  trustee,  and  Al 
Weiner,  J.  D.  Trafton,  W.  H.  Marston  and  Ed  Har- 
vey of  Watsonville  Parlor. 

Parlor's  First  Officers. 
Dr.  Charles  H.  MeCann  was  the  candidate  upon 
whom  was  conferred  the  initiatory  degree,  on  behalf 
of  the  charter  members.  One  of  the  visiting  grand 
otneers,  in  the  course  of  his  remarks  that  evening, 
expressed  the  opinion  that  Santa  Cruz  Parlor  had 
before  it  as  promising  a  future  as  any  Parlor  in 
the  State,  and  that  its  progress  would  be  uninter- 
rupted if  the  members  would  but  observe  the  high 
standard  with  whicn  they  had  begun.  That  his 
prophecy  has  more  than  come  true,  can  best  be 
seen  in  the  large  and  well-established  membership 
and  the  prosperity  that  this  Parlor  now  enjoys.  The 
first  set  of  officers  installed  included:  B.  R.  Martin, 
past  president;  L.  L.  Fargo,  president;  C.  E.  Wil- 
liams, first  vice-president;  C.  W.  Cappleman,  sec- 
ond vice-president;  W.  C.  Parker,  Jr.,  third  vice- 
president;  F.  J.  Hoffman,  recording  secretary;  J.  P. 
Cooper,  financial  secretary;  W.  C.  Hoffman,  treas- 
urer; Dr.  C.  H.  MeCann,  surgeon;  Charles  Madeira, 
marshal;  Laurie  Williams,  inside  sentinel;  F.  B. 
Cahoon,  outside  sentinel;  Frank  Porter,  R.  H.  Prin- 
gle  and  F.  L.  Stevens,  trustees.     The  other  charter 

(Continued    on    Supplement    15,    Column   2) 


not  be  in  the  field  for  the  1912  Grand  Parlor  session, 
owing  to  the  bank  failure  there,  which  has  affected 
business  conuitions  temporarily. 

This  means  that  the  contest  for  the  honor  of 
entertaining  the  Thirty  fifth  Grand  Parlor  will  rest 
between  Orovine  and  Fresno.  Both  these  cities 
are  making  lively  campaigns,  and  are  being  sup- 
ported by  civic  ana  promotion  societies  and  public 
officials.  They  will  have  boosting  committees  at 
Santa  Cruz,  and  the  delegates  can  be  assured  of 
hearing  all  about  the  glories  of  both  Fresno  and 
Oroville. 

Santa  Rosa,  so  far  as  can  be  learned,  is  the  only 
city  that  would  like  to  have  this  year's  Admission 
Day  celebration,  and  it  seems  likely  that  it  will  be 
designated  as  the  place  for  holding  the  festivities. 

Of  course,  there  may  be  other  places  after  both 
the  next  Grand  Parlor  and  the  Admission  Day 
celebration,  but  if  such  be  the  case,  the  Parlors 
that  will  champion  their  cause  are  keeping  the  mat- 
ter  decidedly   quiet.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


191  1 


ESIEING  TO  OBTAIN  AN  EXPRES- 
sion  of  opinion  from  the  grand  offi- 
cers of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Gold- 
en West  and  Native  Daughters  of 
the  Golden  "West  and  Past  Grand 
Presidents  of  both  organizations,  as 
to  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  as  the 
official  organ  of  both  Orders,  the 
Board  of  Directors  of  the  Grizzly 
Bear  Publishing  Company,  publish- 
ers of  the  magazine,  directed  a  letter 
to  each  of  these  present  and  past 
officials,  and  asked  their  unrestricted  opinion, 
whether  favorable  or  unfavorable  to  the  publica- 
tion. In  this  letter,  attention  was  called  to  the 
intention  of  the  Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Company 
to  ask,  at  the  hands  of  both  the  Native  Sons  Grand 
Parlor  and  Native  Daughters  Grand  Parlor  which 
meet  soon  in  Santa  Cruz,  re-endorsement  as  the 
official  organ  of  both  Orders  and  re-appropriation  of 
the  financial  assistance  extended  the  past  year  by 
both  organizations. 

Every  answer  received  up  to  the  time  of  closing 
these  pages  is  reproduced  herewith,  and  the  Grizzly 
Bear  Publishing  Company  is  honored  in  presenting 
them  to  the  attention  of  the  delegates  soon  to  assem- 
ble at  Santa  Cruz.  They  are  from  men  and  women 
througnout  the  State  who  are  well  and  favorably 
known,  and  the  Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Company 
recognizes  their  indorsement  of  the  magazine — and 
especially  so,  when  each  one  was  advised  that  his 
or  her  response  would  be  made  public — as  its  most 
valued  asset.  These  men  and  women  have  given 
years,  of  their  life  to  the  best  interests  of  their 
respective  Orders,  and  their  opinions  are  worthy 
the  careful  consideration  of  each  and  every  member 
of  both  fraternities  who  is  in  sympathy  with  the 
principles  of  the  N.  S.  G.  W.  and  N.  D.  G.  W.  aad 
wants  to  see  both  Orders  progress. 

Read  these  letters,  and  then  think  over  what  they 
contain: 


MUCH  GOOD  HAS  BEEN  DONE. 

San  Francisco,  May  3rd. 
Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Company — Dear  Sirs?: 
Acknowledging  iece:pt  of  your  letter  of  the  -24th 
ult.  in  reference  to  the  re-endorsement  of  your  mag- 
azine as  the  official  organ  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the 
Golden  West,  also  advising  that  you  will  request  the 
Grand  Parlor  to  renew  its  payment  of  $1000  for 
official  Directory,  etc.,  I  beg  to  state  that  I  favor 
granting  both  of  these  requests,  as  I  feel  much  good 
has  been  done  by  this  magazine,  even  in  face  of 
great  odds.  Wishing  you  success,  I  remain, 
Yours  fraternally, 

LOUIS  H.  MOOSER, 
Grand  Trustee,  N.  S.  G.   W. 


AN  ORGAN  OF  NEWS. 

Oroville,  April  27tli. 

Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Company — Dear  Sirs  and 
Brothers:  I  take  pleasure  in  congratulating  you 
upon  the  success  which  has  attended  your  efforts  in 
making  The  Grizzly  Bear  an  organ  of  news  to  the 
members  of  our  Order,  as  well  as  an  interesting  maga- 
zine containing  historical  matter  of  interest,  the 
roauing  of  whU-h  not  only  affords  pleasure,  but 
awakens  a  decided  interest  in  the  adventures  of  our 
Pioneer  Fathers,  and  refreshes  our  memory  of 
things  of  the  past. 

Your  articles  on  the  early  days,  particularly 
appurtenant  to  the  northern  section  of  the  State, 
with  which  I  have  been  intimately  acquainted  for 
nearly  half  a  century,  I  have  found  exceedingly 
accurate  and  easily  recognize  the  locality  and 
actors.  Yours  fraternally, 

A.  F.  JONES, 
Past  Grand  President,  N.  S.   G.  W. 


EXPONENT  OF  HIGHEST  IDEALS. 

San  Francisco,  May  3rd. 
Publishers  The  Grizzly  Bear — Gentlemen:  As  a 
member  of  the  Order  of  N.  D.  G.  W.,  I  thoroughly 
approve  of  The  Grizzly  Bear.  I  endorse  it  as  an  ex- 
ponent of  the  highest  ideals  of  the  two  fraternal 
organizations,  the  N.  S.  G.  W.  and  the  N.  D.  G.  W. 

I  commend  The  Grizzly  Bear  as  a  contemporary 
chronicler  of  all  that  interests  Californias,  as  a  faith- 
ful historian  of  our  past,  and  I  hail  it  as  the  hope- 
ful herald  of  California's  glorious  future.  Its  pages 
attract  attention  and  win  commendation. 

As  an  official  organ.  The  Grizzly  Bear  deserves  our 
loyal  support  anu  substantial  financial  recognition. 
Respectfully, 

ELIZA  D.  KEITH, 
Past  Grand  President,  N.D.G.W. 


BOOST,  DON'T  KNOCK! 

Searchlight,   Nevada,   May   14th. 

Publishers  Grizzly  xsear — Gentlemen:  The  Grizzly 
Bear  Magazine  during  the  last  four  years  has  been 
a  great  factor  for  the  benefit  of  our  Order.  Stand- 
ing, as  it  does,  pre-eminently  at  the  head  of  all  fra- 
ternal magazines,  it  should  be  looked  upon  by  all 
members  of  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters 
with  pride  and  pleasure.  Its  influence  for  good  and 
power  is  limited  only  by  the  barriers  raised  within 
our  own  ranks. 

Four  years  of  untiring  effort  on  the  part  of  the 
management  and  board  of  directors  has  made  this 
publication  possible,  and  with  a  kind  word  and 
helping  hand  from  every  member  of  our  Order, 
The  Grizzly  Bear  will  growl  on  forever  more. 

The  Grizzly  .bear  can  be  pointed  to  as  one  of  the 
successful  projects,  conceived  and  carried  out  by 
this  Order.  Help  it  along.  If  you  can't  boost, 
don 't  knock !  Fraternally, 

HERMAN  C.  LICHTENBERGER, 
Grand  First  Vice-President,  N.  S.  G.  W. 


VALUABLE  EXPONENT  OF  ORDER. 

Napa,  April  29th. 
Grizzly  Bear  Pub.  Co. — Dear  Sirs  and  Bros.:  Your 
favor  of  25th  inst.  is  before  me,  and  replying  thereto 
must  unequivocally  express  myself  in  favor  of  The 
(jrizzly  Bear  as  a  very  valuable  exponent  of  the 
Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West. 
Fraternally, 

HENRY  C.  GESFORD, 
Past  Grand  President,  N.  S.  G.  W. 


MEASURES  UP  TO  REQUIREMENTS. 

Ventura,  April  27th. 

Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Co. — Gentlemen:  I  take 
this  opportunity  of  thanking  you  for  the  many  cour- 
tesies extended  me  as  a  Grand  Officer,  and  the  assist- 
ance you  have  rendered  me  in 'performing  my  duties 
as  sucli. 

I  feel  that  The  Grizzly  Bear  has  merited  the  en- 
dorsement heretofore  given  it  by  the  Grand  Parlor, 
and  I  trust  that  the  arrangement  may  be  continued 
in  the  future.  I  think  it  highly  important  that  the 
Order  have  an  official  organ  in  the  State,  and,  «o  far 
as  I  have  been  able  to  learn,  you  have  fully  meas- 
ured up  to  the  requirements.  Again  thanking  you, 
I  am.  Fraternally, 

ROBERT  M.  CLARKE, 
Grand  Trustee,  N.  S.  G.  W. 


DESERVES  MORAL  AND  FINANCIAL  SUPPORT 

San  Francisco,  May  5th. 

Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Co. — Dear  Sirs:  Your 
communication  of  April  26th  has  been  received  and 
given  careful  consideration.  You  ask  an  expression 
of  my  opinion  as  to  the  re-indorsement  of  The  Griz- 
zly Bear  Magazine  as  the  official  organ  of  the 
N.D.G.W.,  and  the  payment  of  a  stipulated  sum 
for  its  support.  I  do  not  believe  that  any  measure 
to  be  presented  to  the  Grand  Parlor  for  considera- 
tion should,  previous  to  such  presentation,  be  pub- 
lically  discussed  by  grand  officers  in  a  manner  to 
influence  legislation.  In  all  things,  we  must  bow 
to  the  will  of  the  majority,  and  this  will  is  only  to 
be  determined  by  a  vote  of  the  Grand  Parlor. 

I  believe,  however,  that  The  Grizzly  Bear  is  of 
the  greatest  value  not  only  to  the  Native  toons  and 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  but  to  the  State  at 
large,  and  even  to  the  Union.  I  refer  to  the  ques- 
tion of  State  division;  California,  the  preserver  of 
the  Union,  the  brightest  gem  in  America's  diadem 
of  sovereign  states,  should  be  left  to  posterity  as 
a  precious  heritage,  and  every  loyal  Californian 
should  stand  shoulder  to  shoulder  and  hand  in  hand 
to  watch  over,  protect  and  fight,  if  need  be,  for  our 
glorious  golden  State.  In  opposing  state  division, 
The  Grizzly  Bear  has  earned  the  gratitude  of,  and 
should  have  the  support  of,  every  Native  Son  and 
every  Native  Daughter  of  the  Golden  West. 

As  the  official  organ  of  the  N.D.G.W.,  I  believe 
The  Grizzly  Bear  should  give  impartial  consideration 
to  every  matter  of  interest  to  our  Order,  present- 
ing both  sides  of  every  question.  As  recording 
secretary  of  Las  Lomas  Parlor,  it  has  been  my 
privilege  and  pleasure  to  send  several  communica- 
tions for  publication  m  The  Grizzly  Bear  and  I  am 
convinced  that  every  recording  secretaiy  receiving 
tne  same  courteous  treatment,  and  every  Parlor  the 
recipient  of  the  same  generous  consideration  as  Las 
Lomas,  will  surely  prove  a  most  loyal  supporter  of 
The  Grizzly  Bear.  With  best  wishes  for  success, 
I  remain, 

Sincerely  and  fraternally  yours   in   P.D.F.A., 
ANNA  F.  LACY, 
Grand  Vice-president,  N.D.G.W. 


FAVORS  ENDORSEMENT  AND  SUPPORT. 

San  Francisco,  May  11th. 
Managing  Editor  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine — Dear 
Sir  and  Brother:  Your  letter  of  some  days  ago,  ask- 
ing my  opinion  as  to  the  propriety  of  the  Grand 
Parlor  continuing  its  support  and  endorsement  of 
the  magazine,  came  duly  to  hand. 

There  is  no  doubt  at  all  in  my  mind  of  the  value 
of  an  official  organ  to  any  order.  While,  for  the 
purpose  of  argument,  it  may  be  admitted  that  The 
Grizzly  Bear  is  capable  of  improvement,  it  is 
equally  beyond  doubt  in  my  mind  that  no  possible 
magazine  is  perfect  at  the  start,  and  I  believe  The 
Grizzly  Bear  has  made  more  than  the  usual  progress. 
I  certainly  favor  continued  endorsement  and  sup- 
port of  The  Grizzly  Bear,  for  to  be  without  an  offi- 
cial organ  would  be  a  distinct  step  backward,  and 
to  attempt  a  new  publication  would  be  a  wanton 
sacrifice  of  the  experience  gained  by  the  publishing 
of  The  Grizzly  Bear  in  four  years'  work  in  the  field 
of  fraternal  journalism. 

Sincerely  and  fraternally  yours, 

FRED  H.  JUNG, 
Grand  Secretary,  N.  S.  G.  W. 

HEARTILY  ENDORSES  OFFICIAL  ORGAN. 

Stockton,  May  11th. 
Manager  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine — Dear  Sir  and 
Brother:  Referring  to  your  communication  request- 
ing opinion  on  re-endorsement  of  the  magazine  as 
the  official  organ  and  also  for  re-appropriation  of 
support  of  the  publication,  I  have  to  state  that  I 
heartily  endorse  the  request  for  the  official  organ, 
but  the  question  about  finances,  I  prefer  to  refer  to 
the    Grand   Parlor   for    consideration. 

Wishing  The  urizzly  Bear  continued  success,  and 
appreciating  your  courtesy  in  the  matter  of  publish- 
ing statements, 

Yours  very  truly, 

MAMIE  G.  PEYTON, 
Grand  President,  N.  D.  G.  W. 


KEEPS  ALIVE  BASIC  SENTIMENTS. 
Pubs.  The  Grizzly  Bear — Dear  Sirs  and  Brothers: 
In  answer  to  your  communication  of  April  24th,  I 
will  reply  as  follows:  I  think  The  Grizzly  Bear  is 
of  great  value  to  the  Order,  particularly  because  it 
keeps  the  officers  and  members  of  the  Subordinate 
Parlors  in  close  touch  with  the  official  business  of 
the  Order. 

It  is  also  an  important  factor,  I  think,  in  keep- 
ing alive  tiie  sentiments  upon  which  this  fraternity 
is  founded,  and  is  helpful  in  promoting  interest  in 
the  Order  by  disseminating  the  news  gathered  here 
and  there,  showing  the  work  that  is  being  done  by 
the  Native  Sons  throughout  the  State. 
Yours  fraternally, 

BISMARCK  BRUCK,. 
Grand  Trustee,  N.S.G.W. 


HURRAH  FOR  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAR! 

San   Francisco,   May  1st. 

Managing  Editor  of  The  Grizzly  Bear — Dear  Sir 
and  Brother:  Your  communication  concerning  an 
expression  of  opinion  regarding  The  Grizzly  Bear 
Magazine,  as  the  official  organ  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West,  has  been  received.  I  am  only 
writing  to  you  in  admiration  of  your  wonderful 
enterprise.  In  looking  over  The  Grizzly  Bear  I 
rarely  read  the  stories  which  it  contains,  but  pass 
to  the  editorials.  In  these,  one  will  find  the  combi- 
nation of  literary  talent  and  common  sense  which, 
in  a  great  many  ways,  upholds  the  right  and  coun- 
teracts the  evil  in  which  The  Grizzly  Bear  often 
growls.  Permit  me  to  express  my  appreciation  of 
the  broad  and  lioeral  editorial  policy  of  your  publi- 
cation. 

I  agree  with  your  principle  of  no  division  of  the 
State  of  California — no  south,  no  north;  one  and 
inseparable,  now  and  forever.  Also  you  are  encour- 
aging home  industry  by  demanding  home  products — 
this  insures  the  State's  prosperity.  No  invasion 
made  up  of  Japanese,  Chinese,  Greeks,  Hindus  and 
Turks  snail  land  within  our  boundaries,  and  I  up- 
hold The  Grizzly  Bear,  that  some  prompt  and  decis- 
ive action  must  be  taken,  to  prevent  this  influx  of 
undesirables.  You  have  done  the  State  of  California 
and  the  Order  of  Native  Sons  a  world  of  good.  You 
are  setting  a  pace  in  eurrent  magazinedom  that  few 
will  have  the  courage  to  attempt. 

Hurrah  for  The  Grizzly  Bear!  The  Grand  Parlor 
held  at  Napa,  in  1907,  there  resolved,  that  The  Griz- 
zly Bear  ' '  BE, ' '  and  the  same  was,  endorsed  as 
the  official  organ  of  the  Order  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West.  And  may  it  accomplish  a  still 
greater  task  of  presenting  concrete  remedies,  that 
will  cement  together  a  United  Order  of  a  million 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West.    And  be  it  further

Grizzly  Bear  Pub.  Co. — Gentlemen:  Among  the 
many  excellent  things  endorsed  by  the  Grand  Parlor, 
N.  D.  G.  W.,  not  one,  to  my  mind,  has  been  more 
worthy,  or  more  productive  of  good  than  the  en- 
dorsement and  financial  support  of  The  Grizzly 
Bear  Magazine.  The  magazine  comes  to  us  each

OFFICIAL   ORGAN   A   NECESSITY. 

San  Francisco,  May  15th. 

Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Company — Gentlemen:  I 
have  always  appreciated  the  necessity  for  a  publi- 
cation devoted  to  the  work  of  our  Order  and  whose 
mission  would  be  the  dissemination  of  a  knowledge 
of  the  principles  and  purposes  of  the  fraternity  and 
data  appertatining  to  the  history  and  traditions  of 
the  State  of  California. 

This  purpose  lias  been  ably  and  effectively  sub- 
served,  during  the  last  four  years,  through  the  cir- 
culation of  The  Grizzly  Bear.  Its  name  is  typically 
California!!.  It  has  been  well  edited,  contains  a 
large  amount  of  valuable  information,  and  deserves 
the  support  of  all  our  brothers. 

The  Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden 
West  is  an  insl  rument  for  good,  by  reason  of  its 
ability  tn  enlist  the  active  co-operation  of  the 
twenty  thousand  members  of  the  fraternity  in 
inn  vein  en  ts  for  the  welfare  of  the  State,  and  for 
this  reason  there  must  be  some  medium  of  com- 
munication   which    will    bring   information    of    what 


ing  matter.  From  these  pages  we  become  familiar 
with  bits  of  California  history  concerning  the  Pio- 
neers and  the  earlier  history  of  California,  which 
had  not  before  been  published  and  could  not  even 
be  obtained  were  it  not  for  the  unceasing  vigilance 
of  the  faithful  editor  of  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine. 
All  of  us,  especially  those  who  are  far  away  from 
the  great  center  of  activity,  delight  in  reading  from 
the  pages  of  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine  about  the 
theaters,  the  fashions,  the  book  reviews.  We  are 
entertained  by  the  sporting  page,  and  enlightened 
by  the  mining  department.  All  furnish  food  for 
thought,  improvement,  and  later,  subjects  for  dis- 
cussion. 

The  articles  by  "Aunt  Ella  and  Uncle  Sterling" 
are  educational,  uplifting  and  inspiring  to  the  young 
people  of  our  State.  The  story  of  "Babe  Robin- 
son,1' now  published  in  book  form,  first  appeared 
in  the  pages  of  "our"  Grizzly  Bear,  and  we  have 
had  the  pleasure  of  reading  the  entire  story,  along 
with  all  valuable  data  contained  in  our  own  official 
organ,  j  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine,  all  for  the  small 
sum  of  $1.00.     We  have  had  it  for  a  whole  year,  too[ 

The  members  of  our  Order  in  large  cities,  or 
where  there  are  two  or  more  Parlors,  may  not  need 
to  read  the  magazine  to  keep  themselves  informed 
on  these  various  subjects,  but  those  who  live 
in  the  country,  far  away  from  the  centers  of  activ- 
ity, .need  just  this  kind  of  a  message  each  month 
to  keep  us  in  touch  with  the  outside  world. 

Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters,  if  you  wish 
to  instill  into  your  sons  and  daughters  the  true  Pio- 
neer spirit — the  spirit  that  made  California  what  it 
is,  the  spirit  that  rebuilt  San  Francisco,  the  spirit 
that  will  forever  forbid  State  division — place  be- 
fore   your    children    the    good    things    contained    in 


not  only  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  but  of  the  individual 
members  of  the  Farlors.  Wishing  you  every  success 
I  am,  Tours  Fraternallv. 

C.  M.  BELSHAW, 
Past  Grand  President,  N.  S.  G.  W. 


WORTHY  OF  SUPPORT. 

Secretary  Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Co. — Dear  Sir 
and  Brother:  Replying  to  your  letter  of  April  24th, 
asking  for  an  expression  of  my  opinion,  as  a  grand 
officer,  as  to  whether  I  consider  The  Grizzly  Bear 
Magazine  of  any  value  to  the  Order,  permit  me  to 
say,  that  I  think  an  official  organ  is  a  necessity  in 
an  Order  such  as  ours  and  is  worthy  of  support,  for 
the  reason  that  it  keeps  the  members  throughout 
the  State  in  close  touch  with  one  another.  Per- 
sonally I  have  found  the  official  directory,  as  pub- 
lished monthly  in  The  Grizzly  Bear  by  the  Grand 
Parlor,  a  matter  of  great  convenience,  particularly 
so  during  the  recent  Admission  Day  celebration  in 
San  Francisco — I  don't  know  what  I  would  have 
done    without    it. 

Fraternallv  yours, 

ANGELO  J.  ROSSI, 
Grand  Marshal,  N.S.G.W.

Los  Angeles,  May  loth- 
Grizzly  Bear  Pub.  Co. — Dear  Sirs:  Replying  to 
your  query,  "Why  do  I  like  The  Grizzly  Bear  Maga- 
zine," I  am  pleased  to  answer:  I  like  The  Grizzly 
Bear  because  its  columns  are  given  over  to  the  up- 
building of  the  Orders  of  the  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West  and  because 
by  standing  for   high    ideals,   it   advances   the   wel-

The  Order  of  Native  daughters  of  the  Golden

Jackson,  Amador  County,  September  11,  1886, 
Ursula  Parlor,  No.  1,  of  that  city  being  tne  mother

not  until  March  7,  1887,  that  the  secret  work  of 
the  Parlor  had  been  perfected,  and  on  that  date 
the  charter  officers  were  installed. 

On  March  10,  1887,  Minerva  Parlor,  No.  2,  was 
instituted  at  San  Francisco,  and  on  March  12th,

Year  Shows  Progress. 

To  date,  there  are  132  Parlors  in  the  Order  which 
will  be  represented  in  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor. 
Three  new  Parlors  were  instituted  during  the  last 
Grand  Parlor  year,  namely:  Fresno  Parlor,  No.  1S7. 
at  Fresno,  October  13th;  Sunset  Parlor,  No.  188.  at 
Sebastopol,  March  29th;  Laguna  Parlor,  No.  189.  at 
Lower  Lake,  April  29th;  Gold  of  Ophir  Parlor  No 
190,  at  Oroville,  May  3rd. 

The  gain  in  membership  during  the  past  year  has 
been  580,  bringing  the  total  membership'  in  the 
Order  to  7808.  There  has  been  paid  out  in  sick 
benefits,  $7,453.08;  from  the  Caminetti  death  benefit 
fund,  $1950;  for  charitable  purposes,  $1222.  The 
total  worth  of  all  the  Subordinate  Parlors  aggre- 
gates $46,469.18.  The  Grand  Parlor  itself  has  about 
$3000  to  its  credit,  a  gain  of  $300  for  the  year. 

In  addition  to  the  amount  dispensed  for  charity, 
the  Subordinate  Parlors  have  made  donations  to  im- 
provement clubs,  tree  plantings,  mission  bell  erec- 
tions—in fact,  they  have  their  hands  in  their  pock- 
ets all  the  time  and  are  called  upon  to  give  to  every- 
thing that  desires  to  succeed.  For  those  who  ask 
it,  know  that  if  the  Native  Daughters  can  be  en- 
listed in  their  behalf,  whatever  the  project  be 
their  aid  means  success. 

It  can  readily  be  seen  that  the  Order  is  slowly 
but  surely  regaining  normal  conditions,  after  the 
awful  struggle  caused  by  the  1906  earthquake  and 


>F  THE  Mo  R  Go 


fire.  The  Native  Daughters  was  about  the  only 
Order  that  neither  levied  a  special  assessment  on  the 
Subordinate  Parlors  nor  was  relieved  bjT  outside  as- 
sistance. They  met  the  issue  alone  and  much  credit 
is  given  those  who  were  in  charge  of  the  Order's 
affairs  at  the  time,  for  the  outcome. 

Grand  Secretary  to  Retire. 

It  will  be  with  much  sorrow  that  members  of  the 
Order  throughout  the  State  read  the  announcement 
that  Grand  Secretary  Laura  J.  Frakes  is  to  retire 
from  the  office  which  she  has  so  acceptably  filled  the 
past  eleven  years.  Miss  Frakes  was  elected  to  the 
office  at  the  Jackson  Grand  Parlor  in  1900,  and  to 
her  untiring  efforts  much  of  the  success  attained  by 
the  Order  is  due.  She  was  in  eahrge  of  the  Grand 
Secretary's  office  in  San  Francisco  during  the  1906 
catastrophe,  and  was  the  only  secretary  of  a  frater- 
nal organization  who  saved  all  records  from  destruc- 
tion. .  Miss  Frakes  has  never  entirely  recovered  from 
this  shock,  as  well  as  the  shock  incident  to  the 
death  of  Grand  Treasurer  Mary  Dempsey,  to  whom 
she  was  greatly  attached,  and  who  she  nursed 
through  a  long  illness. 

Just  after  the  Santa  Barbara  Grand  Parlor  last 
year.  Miss  Frakes  suffered  a  nervous  breakdown,  and 
for  months  hovered  between  life  and  death.  She 
did  not  resume  her  official  duties  until  the  first  of 
the  year,  and  had  then  made  up  her  mind  to  relin- 
quish the  office.  When  her  close  friends  heard  of 
her  intention,  however,  they  protested,  and  suc- 
ceeded in  getting  her  to  partly  consent  to  continue 
in  the  office.  But  a  letter  from  her  Sutter  Creek 
home  recently,  informing  her  that  her  aged  mother's 
health  is  failing  rapidly  and  that  her  days  on 
earth  are  but  few  at  best,  has  caused  Miss  brakes 
to  firmly  resolve  not  to  again  accept  the  office.  She. 
will  go  to  the  bedside  of  her  mother  at  the  close 
of  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor,  feeling  that  i 
mother's  call  is  to  be  heeded  above  the  demands  of 
her  manv  friends  in  the  Order  that  she  hives  so 
well. 


WANT    TO    HOLD    OFFICE. 

That  there  will  be  no  dearth  of  candidates  for  the 
several  Grand  Parlor  offices  is  assured  from  the 
number  of  aspirants  of  which  The  Grizzly  Bear 
has  alreadv   received   notice.      There    will    no   doubt 


GRAND    VICE-PRESIDENT    ANNA    F.    LACY, 
Who   Will   Become    Grand   President 


be  others  before  election  day.  It  seems  reasonably 
certain  that  Anna  F.  Lacy  will  become  the  head  of 
the  Order,  without  any  opposition. 

For  Grand  Vive-President,  there  will,  in  all  prob- 
ability, be  a  four-cornered  contest  between  Olive  V. 
Bedford  of  Camellia  Parlor,  Anderson;  Mamie 
Pierce  Carmichael  of  Vendome  Parlor,  San  Jose; 
Agnes  M.  Lee  of  San  Luisita  Parlor,  San  Lnis 
Obispo,  and  Alison  F.  Watt  of  Manzanita  Parlor, 
Grass  Valley. 

For  Grand  Secretary,  one  who  has  her  ear  close  to 
the  ground  can  hear  the  whispered  names  of  several 
eligibles.        That   of   P.    G.   P.    Stella  Finkeldey   of

made  the  assertion  that,  under  no  circumstances 
would  she  accept  the  position.  Alice  Dougherty  of 
Angelita  Parlor,  Livennore,  will  positively  be  a 
candidate,  and  it  is  not  without  the  bonds  of  possi 
bility  that  either,  or  perhaps  both,  Anna  A.  Gruber 
of  Orinda  Parlor,  San  Francisco,  and  Aunt  Me 
Caughey  of  Reina  Del  Mar  Parlor,  Santa  Bavbai  t, 
will  try  for  the  honors.  When  it  becomes  known, 
however,  that  Laura  J.  Frakes  will  not  seek  re-elec- 
tion to  the  Grand  Secretaryship,  others  ma  -  also 
be  candidates,  The  office  is  the  only  remunerative 
one  in  the  Order,  and  there  are  many  members  capa- 
ble oi  rilling  the  position. 

No  one  appears  to  wanl  Susie  K.  Christ 's  office  n  : 
Grand  Treasurer,  so  she  will  in  all  probability  be 
re-elected  without  opposition.  For  Grand  Marshal, 
I  he  only  eandidati-  so  tar  heard  of  is  Mazy  Roderick 
of  Oro  Pino  Parlor,  San  Prancisco.  Tin' re  are  no 
generally  known  aspirants  for  the  offices  of  Grand 
Inside  Sentinel  and  Grand  Outside  Sentinel.  Jennie 
Brown  of  Piedmont  Parlor,  Oakland,  will  seek  the 
honors  that  go  with  the  office  of  Grand  Organist. 

There  are  seven  Grand  Trustees  to  be  elected,  and 
the  year  bida  fair  to  be  no  exeption  to  the  general 
rule  of  numerous  candidates.  Of  the  present  incum- 
bents, those  who  will  very  likely  seek  re-election 
are:  Anna  E.  McCaughey  of  Reina  Del  Mar  Parlor, 
Santa  Barbara  (provided  she  is  not  a  candidate  for 
Grand  Secretary);  Mamie  Fitzgerald  of  San  Miguel 
Parlor.  San  Miguel;  Anna  Oomjis.-y  of  Los  Angeles 
Parlor,  Los  Angeles;  Belle  Gribi  of  Veritas  Parlor, 
Merced,  and  Hat  tip  K.  Roberts  of  Oneonta  Parlor, 
Ferndale.  Others  who  have  been  mentioned  for  ths 
Grand  Trusteeships  include:  Emma  Boarman 
Wright  of  Ursula  Parlor,  No.  1,  Jackson;  Margaret 
Hill  of  Alta  Parlor.  No.  3,  San  Francisco;  Grace 
Willy  of  Joaquin  Parlor,  No.  5,  Stockton;  Mary  L.

GRAND  PRESIDENTS  REPORT. 

The  recommendations  of  the  Grand  President  are 
always  productive  of  much  debate  in  Kifcivo  Daugh- 
ter Grand  Parlors,  and  it  is  hinted  that  those  to 
be  made  by  Mamie  G.  Peyton  will  create  more  than 
the  usual  excitement.  In  fact,  it  is  said  that  Mrs. 
Peyton's  report  will  oo1  be  along  the  lines  of  bei 
predecessors,  but  will  b<  short  and  crisp,  but  abornd 
ing  in  references  that  have  a  direct  bearing  on  the 
welfare  and  progress  of  the  Order.  Every  Grand 
President  has  a  "hobby,"  and  Mrs.  Peyton  has  hers 
in  the  Native  Daughters  Home  at  San  Francisco.  In 
her  official  visits  to  the  Subordinate  Parlors 
throughout  the  year,  she  has  made  this  the  burden 
of  her  addresses.  The  home  was  destroyed  in  the 
San  Francisco  conflagration  of  1906,  and  has  never 
been  rebuilt,  but  the  Grand  President  is  anxious  to 
see  it  again  erected  at  an  early  date,  and  will  recom- 
mend that  the  Grand  Parlor  undertake  the  task. 
This  question,  like  all  others  that  have  a  bearing  on 
finances,  has  its  supporters  and  opposers,  and  when 
it  comes  before  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor  in  the 
Grand  President's  recommendations,  will  be  the  sig- 
nal for  a  flow  of  oratory  on  the  part  of  delegates 
and  Past  Grand  Presidents. 

Mrs.  Peyton's  term  of  office  has  been  a  highly 
successful  one.  and  in  her  report  it  is  believed  she 
will  have  very  little  criticism  to  make  of  the  several 
Subordinate  Parlors.  That  her  report,  however,  will 
be  void  of  criticism,  is  not  to  be  expected,  for  from 
remarks  made  during  her  visits  it  is  gathered  that 
she  will  severely  criticise  some  of  the  Grand  Parlor's 
business  methods  and  recommend  changes  in  the 
manner  of  conducting  the  Order's  affairs. 

The  finances  of  the  Grand  Parlor  will  unquestion- 
ably be  carefully  considered  by  her,  as  she  has  often 
said  she  believed  the  Order  was  unnecessarily  liberal 
with  its  funds,  and  was  now  getting  to  that  period 
where  the  "leaks"  should  be  plugged  up  and  a 
surplus  accumulated  for  the  proverbial  rainy  day, 
and  in  order  to  properly  care  for  members  who  are 
growing  older  and  who  look  to  the  Order  to  care 
for  them  when  they  are  unable  to  further  fight  the 
battles  of  life  themselves. 


GREETING! 

As  a  Pasl  ''land  President  of  the  Native 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  from  Santa 
<  ruz  Parlor,  No.  26,  1  v*  ish  to  extend  f rater 
nal  greetings  to  the  Grand  Officers  and  dele- 
gates of   the   Grand    Parlors  of    1911. 

M  \  nal  >\  e  citj  -the  <  'ity  of  t  he  I  [olj  '  Iross 
— is  very  dear  to  me,  with  all  its  natural 
beauty—  the  touch  o3  God's  handiwork  every- 
where. The  monarch 8  of  the  forest  silently 
speak  ing  of  strength  and  endurance,  almost 
touch  the  restless  waves  of  the  great  Pacific, 
with  their  many  lessons  of  never-tiring  en- 
ergy. 

With  such  a  setting,  i  trust  we  may  all  get 
an  inspiration  to  so  direct  our  energies  during 
the  week,  that  these  Grand  Parlors  may  be 
recorded  in  history,  as  being  conducted  along 
those  broad  and  liberal  lines  in  keeping  with 
the  world's  great   movements  of  today. 

That  we  may  take  back  to  our  respective 
homes  some  work,  some  thought  which  may 
directly  or  indirectly  have  some  influence  for 
good,  toward  the  future  progress  of  our  beau- 
tiful,   wonderful.   Gulden   State.

this    year.

THE  1912  GRAND  PARLOR. 
The  choice  of  cities  for  the  1912  Grand  Parlor 
session  will  apparently  rest  between  Fresno  and  San 
Francisco,  as  they  are  the  only  two  places  that  have 
sent  out  word  that  they  intend  to  ask  for  the  honor. 
San  Francisco  had  the  Grand  Parlors  of  3887,  1889 
and  1902,  while  no  Grand  Parlor  session  has  ever 
been  held  in  Fresno.     The  Native  Daughters  have

all-the  year-round  resort  in  the  world,  what  it  has 
long  needed — a  first-class  hotel,  elegantly  furnished 
and  perfectly  constructed,  where  visitors  may  find 
rest,  comfort  and  all  sorts  of  amusements  throughout 
the  entire  year.  The  management  has  hurried  work 
on  the  handsome  edifice,  so  that  it  will  be  completely 
furnished  in  readiness  to  receive  the  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  of  the  State,  who  will  assemble  at 
Santa  Cruz,  the  week  of  June  12th,  the  former  organ- 
ization holding  its  daily  sessions  in  the  auditorium  of  the  Casino, 
which  is  connected  with  the  Casa  Del  Eey  by  an  overhead  cement 
archway. 

Let  us  enter  Casa  Del  Eey  on  the  opening  day  from  its 
grand  main  entrance  on  Cliff  street.  We  find  before  us  a  three- 
story,  Spanish  architecture,  concrete  building,  with  a  frontage  on 
the  street  of  three  hundred  and  thirty-five  feet,  and  a  garden  be- 
tween it  and  the  Casino  of  seventy  feet,  making  the  total  distance 
between  it  and  the  Casino  one  hundred  and  seventy  feet.  The 
entrance  we  find  to  be  very  imposing,  with  great  columns  rising  on 
either  side.  The  building  is  set  back  eighteen  feet  from  the  side- 
walk on  Cliff  street,  this  space  being  devoted  to  lawn  and  shrubs. 
We  find  a  place  for  automobiles  to  turn  in  at  the  entrance,  and 
over  this  entrance  we  find  a  great  metal  and  glass  marquise,  twenty- 
six  feet  wide,  and  extending  out  twelve  feet. 

ENTRANCE  LOBBY. 

Upon  entering,  we  find  the  entrance  lobby  and  office  to  be  of 
noble  proportions,  forty  feet  by  fifty-nine  feet  in  dimensions,  the  en- 
tire floor  space  of  which  is  carpeted.  On  the  right  side,  as  we  enter, 
are  the  ladies'  reception  room,  telephone  booths  and  two  passenger 
elevators.  On  the  left  side  are  buffet,  cigar  stand,  general  office 
and  barber  shop.  The  latter  shop  has  Terrazzo  floor,  with  tiled  bor- 
der of  selected  color. 

MAIN  LOBBY. 

But  directly  ahead  of  us,  as  we  enter,  and  beyond  the  office 
lobby,  is  the  main  lobby,  its  dimensions  seventy  feet  by  fifty-six 
feet,  its  ceiling  two  stories  high,  the  same  covered  over  with  glass 
lights.  On  the  two  sides  of  this  immense  lobby,  which  is  verdant 
with  potted  palms,  is  a  line  of  French  windows  for  the  total  length 
of  fifty-five  feet,  opening  out  in  either  direction  on  enclosed  gar- 
dens, each  garden  being  one  hundred  feet  long  by  fifty-five  feet 
wide,  the  same  laid  out  with  flowers  and  lawn  in  carpet  designs 
according  to  the  ideas  of  John  Martin,  as  observed  by  him  during 
his  recent  travels  in  Europe.  It  is  but  a  step  of  three  feet  from 
this  lobby  into  the  garden. 

FIREPLACE. 

And  then,  to  climax  the  artistic,  noble  effect  to  be  gained  as 
one  enters  the  hotel,  at  the  eastern  end  of  this  great  lobby  is  seen 
a  mammoth  fireplace,  with  mantel  fifteen  feet  across  and  with  a 
mne-j.oot  opening,  into  whicu  the  largest  of  logs  can  be  placed  to 
throw  a  glow  and  a  cheer  over  the  entire  scene. 

MAGNITUDE. 

The  magnitude  of  what  has  just  been  described  can  hardly  be 
realized.  Suffice  to  say  that  the  dimensions  of  those  two  lobbies 
together,  which  will  really  be  but  one  room,  will  be  one  hundred  and 
twenty  feet  by  an  average  of  sixty  feet.  Santa  Cruz  will  come 
rather  near  outshining  anything  of  the  kind  on  the  Coast.  The 
hotel  is  built  in  the  form  of  a  hollow  rectangle,  and  the  open  space, 
surrounded  by  the  inner  walls  of  the  building,  is  occupied  by  the 
two  gardens  and  the  immense  glass-domed  main  lobby  extending 
across  the  middle. 
ARCADE. 

Connecting  the  hotel  and  the  Casino  from  an  upper  floor,  the 
enclosed  arcade  is  roofed  with  Spanish  design  and  composed  of 
three  arches.  The  first  arch  spans  the  Spanish  garden,  at  the  east 
end  of  which  garden  faces  the  present  cottage  city  office  building; 
the  secon^  arch  spans  the  railroad  and  electric  car  tracks,  and  the 
third  arch,  twenty-two  feet  wide  in  the  clear,  connects  with  the 
Casino. 

More  than  $40,000  has  been  spent  in  the  alterations  and  im- 
provements made  in  the  Casino  and  natatorium,  so  that  they  are 
used  in  harmony  with  the  hotel  building,  and  thus  all  are  an  inte- 
gral part. 

MANAGEMENT. 

Casa  Del  Rey  is  under  the  management  of  James  H. 
MeCullough,  who  is  ably  assisted  by  a  corps  of  well-known  heads 
of  departments,  which  assures  unexcelled  service.  The  maitre  d' 
hotel  in  charge  of  the  Casino,  is  S.  A.  Gottlieb,  formerly  of  the 
i.otel  St.  Francis  and  the  Blanco  Restaurant,  San  Francisco.  The 
hotel  will  be  run  strictly  on  the  European  plan,  and  will  be  open 
the  entire  year.  The  rates  will  be  $2.00  and  upward  per  day. 
CONCLUDING  SUMMARY. 

To  sum  up  the  entire  proposition,  Casa  Del  Rey  will 
consist  of  three  hundred  rooms,  two  hundred  connected  with  baths, 
to  cover  an  area  of  three  hundred  and  thirty-five  feet  on  Cliff 
street  by  one  hundred  and  thirty-five  feet  on  Beach  street,  which 
permits  of  two  large  open  courts,  opening  off  the  main  lobbv. 
These  courts,  fifty  by  one  hundred  feet,  are  of  Spanish  architecture 
and  adorned  with  beautiful  flowers  and  palms,  and  the  hotel  is  con- 
nected by  an  arcade  one  hundred  and  seventy  feet  long  between  it 
an^  the  unsurpassed  Casino.

aquatic   9por1    in  a   large,  up-to-date  salt   water  nata 
torium  are  pleasures  ever  at  band. 

Boating  and  yachting  on  river  and  bay,  and  fishing  in  salt  and 
fresh  water  are  hen1  at  their  best.  And  when  old  ocean  and 
its  delights  begin  to  pall,  a  thirty-minute  journey  by  train  or  auto 
mobile  over  good  roads  takes  the  change-seeker  past  awe-inspiring 
river  canyon  into  forest  solitude  in  the  heart  of  rugged  mountains, 
where  deep  shade  and  solemn  stillness  awaken  keen  appreciation 
of  one  of  the  wonders  of  the  molern  world — the  giant  redwood 
trees  of  Santa  Cruz.  From  all  over  the  world  these  colossal  spei 
mens  of  tree  life  attract  many  and  eminent  visitors  who  are  moved 
to  silent  wonder  and  admiration  by  the  Santa  Cruz  Big  Trees — an 
impression  sure  to  deepen  into  a  never-to  be-forgotte  1   memory. 

CLIMATE  UNSURPASSED. 

To  its  location  between  ocean  and  mountain,  Santa  <  !ruz  <  ounty 
is  indebted  for  its  incomparable  climatic  equability.  The  mercury 
never  falls  below  26  degrees,  and  rarely  rises  above  V-  degrees, 
thus  making  Santa  Cruz  a  delightful  spot  in  which  to  spend  your 
vacation,  during  any  season  of  the  year.  Killing  frosts  there  are 
none.  The  mean  temperature  for  January  is  50  degrees,  for  July 
(50  degrees,  and  these  figures  have  never  varied  more  than  four 
degrees. 

No  mere  recital  of  temperatures  and  averages  conveys  any 
idea  of  the  stimulating,  "wine-like"  quality  of  the  atmosphere, 
which  is  charged  with  the  bracing  quality  of  sections  further  north, 
but  wholly  without  the  enervating  climatic  effect  of  the  southland. 

In  all  the  fifty-seven  counties  of  California,  in  all  the  forty- 
six  States  of  the  Union,  there  is  not  another  spot  where  the  face  of 
Nature  is  as  serene,  as  beautiful  of  aspect,  as  abounding  in  assur 
ance  of  the  good  things  of  life,  as  it  is  in  Santa  Cruz  County,  and 
the  region  around  the  Hay  of  Monterey. 

CASINO  FEATURE. 

There  are  three  large  dining-rooms  fronting  the  bay.  one  seat 
ing  four  hundred  and  fifty,  and  the  east  and  west  dining  rooms 
opening  into  the  main  room  and  seating  one  hundred  and  thirty 
each;  these  are  all  connected  by  a  sun  promenade  extending  the 
whole  length  of  the  natatorium,  facing  the  bay  and  enclosed  under 
glass,  so  as  to  be  open  or  closed,  according  to  the  weather.  This 
promenade  is  furnished  with  wicker  chairs,  hammock  chairs  and 
settees,  affording  the  patrons  of  the  hotel  a  beautiful  view  of  the 
beach  and  bay.  allowing  them  to  witness  the  crowds  without 
mingling  with  them,  hear  the  band  concerts,  view  the  fireworks,  etc., 

COTTAGE  CITY. 

Adjoining  the  hotel  is  a  block  of  artistic  cottages,  containing 
two  to  four  rooms;  these  are  called  the  Hotel  Cottages,  and  a 
block  from  them  is  a  Cottage  City  of  two  hundred  cottages,  laid  out 
in  streets,  cement  walks  and  flower  beds,  making  a  veritable  garden 
surrounding  these  cottages.  With  the  hotel,  hotel  cottages  and 
cottage  city,  there  can  be  accommodated  one  thousand  people  at 
one  time,  and  seats  in  the  dining-room,  without  crowding,  for  eight 
hundred,  so  the  Beach  Company  can  care  for  any  sort  of  convention 
which  might  see  fit  to  select  Santa  Cruz  as  their  outing  place. 

COSY  COTTAGES. 

The  Santa  Cruz  Beach  Company  has  established  its  cottage 
city,  so  that  people  of  all  means  may  enjoy  recreation  on  Monterey 
Bay  and  have  all  the  comforts  of  home,  in  addition  to  the  many 
attractions  afforded  in  the  Casino  and  accessories.  Special  monthly

EDITED  BY  HARRY  J.  LELANDE 


June,    1911 


1TH  THE  ADVENT  OF  WARM 
weather,  and  the  approach  of  school 
vacations,  people  in  the  cities  are 
planning  an  exodus  to  the  seaside 
and  mountain  resorts.  There  is  no 
country  in  the  world  that  provides 
so  many  delightful  summer  resorts  as 
does  California.  '  No  matter  what 
kind  of  an  outdoor  life  appeals  to 
one,  he  can  find  it  at  its  best  within 
the  confines  of  this  State.  There  are 
innumerable  beach  resorts  for  those 

roll  in  the  sands  and  disport  in.  the 
there  are  mountain  resorts  for 


who  love  to  roll  i: 
waves  of  old  ocean 
those  who  want  to  breathe  the  pure  higher  air  and 
angle  in  the  clear  mountain  streams  for  trout; 
there  are  foothill  resorts  for  those  who  want  to 
camp  out  and  while  the  hours  away  in  idleness. 
While  for  those  who  long  to  tramp  and  enjoy  the 
beauties  of  Nature,  there  is  our  own  incomparable 
Yosemite,  and  the  several  groves  of  big  trees.  In 
fact,  if  one  cannot  find  in  California  that  which 
most  appeals  to  his  taste  for  outdoor  life,  he  is  in- 
deed hard  to  please. 

Reports  throughout,  the  State  indicate  that  the 
streams  are  full  of  trout,  the  woods  full  of  game, 
and  it  is  predicted  this  will  be  the  banner  season 
for  the  'summer  resorts. 

Good  Deer  Hunting  Promised. 

Reports  from  the  foothill  regions  of  the  State  are 
to  the  effect  that  hundreds  of  fawns  have  been  seen, 
and  that  deer  hunting  this  fall  should  be  the  best 
ever  known  in  California  for  many  years.  Up  on 
the  mountain  slopes,  in  the  thickets,  the  deer  are 
bringing  forth  their  young,  and  as  the  campaign 
against  mountain  lions  has  been  a  vigorous  one  ever 
since  the  State  has  offered  a  bounty  of  $20  for  each 
scalp,  the  chief  enemy  of  the  deer  family  is  rapidly 
being  exterminated,  and  the  fawns  are  afforded  pro- 
tection. 

In  the  country  above  Placerville  any  quantity  of 
young  fawns  are  to  be  seen  feeding  at  early  morn  on 
the  tender  grass  beside  tneir  mothers.  It  is  also 
reported  that  mountain  lions  are  destroying  fawns 
in  those  parts  of  the  mountains  where  there  is  no 
effort  being  made  to  kill  off  the  lions.  Twenty  fawn 
careusses  were  recenty  found  in  one  day  in  Long 
Canyon,  Placer  County,  on  the  Forest.  Hill  Divide, 
all  the  work  of  mountain  lions. 


Auto  Races   on  National  Holiday. 

The  Bakersfield  Merchants'  Association  has  ar- 
ranged for  a  big  free-for-all  automobile  road  race 
July  4th,  under  the  A.  A.  A.  rules.  An  ideal  spot 
for  the  events  has  been  selected,  and  each  race 
may  be  fully  viewed  from  the  Kern  River  bluffs 
overlooking  the  entire  course.  Many  prominent 
racing  cars  will  be  entered,  and  the  merchants  are 
subscribing  the  necessary  funds  liberally. 

The  first  race  will  be  for  heavy  cars  at  150  miles, 
in  ten-mile  laps.  First  prize,  $2000;  second,  $1000; 
third.  $500.     Entrance  fee,  $150. 

Second  race,  local  heavy  cars,  100  miles.  First 
prize,  $500;  second,  $250;  third,  $100.  Entrance  fee, 
$50. 

The  third  race  is  to  be  for  local  light  cars  at 
fifty  miles.  First  prize,  $100;  second,  $200;  third. 
$50. 

To  Hold  Shooting  Fest. 
The  Turnverein  Germauia  will  hold  a  prize  shoot 
at  Schuetzen  Park,  xjos  Angeles,  on  June  25th,  when 
prizes  aggregating  $1000,  in  cash  and  merchandise, 
will  be  awarded  for  the  best  scores.  The  event  is 
to  be  held  during  the  Pacific  Sangerbunds,  and 
shooting  clubs  and  marksmen  of  the. coast  will  par- 
ticipate. Eight  German  ring  targets  and  four  point 
targets  will  be  used  simultaneously  from  9  a.  m. 
until  6  p..  m.  attendance  of  expert  riflemen  is  ex- 
pected from  San  Francisco,  Santa  Barbara,  Ven- 
tura. Oxnaru,  Riverside,  Santa  Ana,  San  Diego  and

Lots  of  Trout  Around  Santa  Cruz. 
Those  Native  Sons  who  visit  Santa  Cruz  this 
montn  in  connection  with  the  Grand  Parlor  meeting 
there,  and  enjoy  fishing  and  hunting,  will  find  no 
end  of  sport,  'mere  are  in  Santa  Cruz  County  some 
200  miles  of  trout  streams,  filled  with  mountain  and 
rainbow  trout   and   steelheads.      These   streams   are

each  year  replenished  with  millions  of  fry  from  the 
Santa  Cruz  Fish  Hatchery  maintained  by  the  county, 
and  located  at  Brookdale. 

Almost  every  known  variety  of  fish  is  found  in  the 
Bay  of  Monterey.  During  the  summer  season  hun- 
dreds of  sportsmen  from  all  over  the  coast  assemble 
at  Santa  Cruz  to  enjoy  salmon  fishing  with  rod  and 
reel.  Often  as  many  as  fifty  fishing  boats  dot  the 
bay,  each  occupied  by  ardent  sportsmen  trolling  for 
the  royal  salmon,  which  are  caught  in  large  numbers. 

The  fishing  wiiarf  at  Santa  Cruz  is  headquarters 
for    local    fishermen,    who    ply    their    trade    twelve

months  in  the  year,  supplying  the  local  and  San 
Francisco  markets  with  fresh  salmon,  barracuda,  yel- 
lowtail,  smelt,  sea  bass,  bonita,  sole,  flounders,  king 
fish,  halibut,  pompano,  several  varieties  of  rock  cod, 
mackerel  and  other  fish.  Clams,  mussels,  abalones 
and  other  shell  fish  are  taken  on  the  beaches  at  low 
tide. 

Deer   abound   in   the    mountains,    also    quail    and

other  birds  which  appeal  to  sportsmen.     Ducks  fre- 
quent the  lagoons  and  waterways. 

Laws  to  Regulate  Automobiling. 

The  last  Legislature  passed  several  bills,  which 
have  now  become  laws,  that  are  aimed  at  the  regu- 
lation of  automobiles- with  the  idea  of  protecting  the 
general  public.  One  of  these  makes  it  a  felony  for 
the  driver  of  any  motor  vehicle  to  neglect  to  stop 
after  colliding  with  another  vehicle,  or  to  refuse  to 
carry  any  person  injured  by  such  collision  to  med- 
ical aid. 

Another  makes  it  a  felony  for  the  driver  of  any 
motor  vehicle,  which  kills  or  injures  a  person,  to 
be  intoxicated  at  the  time  of  such  accident;  while 
still  another  makes  it  a  misdemeanor  for  the  driver 
of  any  motor  vehicle  to  be  intoxicated  while  driving 
such  vehicle.

MOPE  TO  HAVE  MOMUMEMTS 

READY  BY  TIME  IS) IS  EXPOSITION 

(By  DR.  C.  W.  CHAPMAN,  of  Nevada  City,  Chairman  of  the  N.  S.  G.  W.  Donner  Monument  Committee.) 

[ilisli  for  Califi»nii:t;  llius  placing  thorn  in  a  | •  r 1 1 j •  i ■  i 
Bigh1  oefore  the  public,  correcting  wrong  imprea 
Sions,  ami  placing  on  tin'  sin -Ives  of  a  large  num- 
ber "f  home  Libraries  a  work  of  roferei Lealing 

with  old  [andmarks  ami  points  of  Benl  imental  his 
tory  which  it  is  our  endeavor  to  perpetuate.  The 
material  tot  the  book  is  to  be  handled  in  Bubjects 
by  members  of  the  Order  who  are  familiar  with 
their  topics.  The  enthusiasm  ami  interest  among 
the  leading  members  of  the  fraternity  who  are 
striving  to  fulfill  the  real  mission  of  t  he  <  (rder 
could  not  be  greater. 

As  (ii.iirrnan  of  this  commit  lee,  I  am  at  this 
writing  most  encouraged,  nnd  confident  thai  we  will 
complete  a  work  before  the  exposition  days  that 
will  accord  us  the  admiration  and  respect  of  the 
strangers  of  the  world  who  will  then,  for  the  first 
time,  learn  that  California's  Sons  and  Daughters 
love  their  State  and  feel  that  it  has  a  wonderful 
past,  made  by  the  noblest  and  most  intrepid  of  fore- 
fatners,  and  that  it  has  a  wonderful  future  to  be 
uirected  in  no  small  degree  by  a  worthy  offspring. 

We  :ire  organized;  we  have  set  ourselves  to  the 
task.  We  will  do  like  the  Pioneers — in  the  same 
spirit  of  determination,  in  the  same  incomparable 
way.  California  shall  be  the  best  State  in  the 
Union.  Her  Sons  and  Daughters  shall  bo  best — 
their  lives  and  works  shall  show   it. 


UK  DONNER  MONUMENT  COM 
tnittee  feels  that  the  work  accom 
phshed  during  the  past  year  is  very 
satisfactory,  and  thai  the  headway 
u  e  ha  \  e  made  is  considerable.  We 
realize  that  there  is  always  an  anxi- 
ety   on    the    part    of    the    members    ol 

I 1 i  ganizat  ion  to  bai  e  such  under 

takings  completed  with  dispatch,  so 
thai  llo-  "ider  may  turn  to  other 
things.  it  should  be  understood, 
however,  thai  a  project  of  this  char- 
acter is  nut  generally  carried  to  completion  in  a 
short  time.  I  am  informed  by  Major  Kdwiu  A. 
Sherman  thai  it  required  twenty  four  years  to  build 
the  Sloal  Monument.  1  trust  that  this  will  help  to 
convince  the  lout  hers  that  the  Donner  Monument 
Committee  is  really  doing  as  well,  or  better,  than 
should  be  expected.  Ii  is  our  aim  aiol  expectation 
to  have  the  work  completed  by  the  time  of  the  expo 
sition  of  1915.  We  expect  not  only  to  have  it  coin 
pleted,  but  to  have  a  work  that  wilt  be  a  credit  to 
the  Order  ami  a  matter  of  pride  to  the  State  of 
Californa. 

Perhaps  the  best  feature  of  this  year's  aCCOm- 
plishmont  was  the  passing  of  :i  bill  by  the  recent 
Legislature  for  an  appropriation  of  $5000  from  the 
State,  to  be  subscribed  to  the  Donner  Monument 
fund  ami  made  payable  in  duly  of  1912.  The  Gov- 
ernor signed  this  bill,  although  the  demands  for 
appropriations  at  this  session  were  almost  over- 
whelming. It  goes  to  show  thai  matters  of  a  purely 
patriotic    nature    are    not     disregarded    in    (  ';ili  forma 

to  give  more  advantages  to  commercial  interests. 
It  speaks  will  also  for  the  standing  of  the  organiza- 
tion of  X.  S.  <..  \V.  in  our  State  and  for  the  feelings 
of  gratitude  toward  the  early  Tioneers  that  must 
have  prompted  the  members  of  the  Assembly  and 
Senate  to  pass  this  measure  by  common  consent. 

I  believe  we  snould  regard  the  fraternal  Orders 
of  N.  S.  <;.  W.  and  X.  D.  G.  W.  as  among  the  great- 
est assets  of  our  State.  They  are  evidences  of  loyalty 
and  attachment  that  testify  more  strongly  than 
any  i.tlier  thing  to  the  hold  that  California  has 
upon  her  citizens.  For  this  reason  alone,  it  is  par- 
'  ticularly  becoming  to  have  completed  a  monument 
of  the  character  that  we  are  attempting,  so  that  the 
vast  throng  of  visitors  from  all  parts  of  the  world 
during  the  1 915  exposition  days  can  perceive  the 
prole  which  the  Suns  ami  Daughters  feel  in  the 
character  of  their  forefathers  who  founded  and  de- 
veloped this  mugmrieent  State  of  California.  It  is  ■ 
becoming  also  for  the  State  to  show  in  this  sub- 
stantial manner  the  estimation  in  -which  it  holds 
these  Suns  and  Daughters,  who  are  organized  for 
the  express  purpose  of  advancing  its  interests.  Such 
recognition  by  the  State  proclaims  these  organiza- 
tions to  be  substantial  and  fit  representatives  to 
carry  out  the  work  which,  by  their  principles  and 
precepts,  they  have  promised  to  do. 

It  is  therefore  incumbent  upon  our  Order  to  per- 
form its  work  in  all  cases  in  a  manner  that  will  in- 
crease this  confidence,  and  ]ilace  beyond  criticism 
or  complaint  any  of  its  deeds  or  works.  The  State 
subscribed  this  $o000  on  the  representation  that  the 
X.  S.  i;.  W.  were  to  subscribe  at  least  a  like  amount. 
Many  of  the  Subordinate  Parlors  have  already 
made  their  donations,  most  of  them  being  substan- 
tial and  in  keeping  with  the  work  in  hand  and 
with  the  sentiment  which  we  feel  toward  our  fore- 
fathers. 

Stan  lord  Parlor  leads  with  a  donation  of  $200  and 
a  cordial  invitation  to  ask  for  more  if  necessary. 
Sacramento  and  Donner  Parlors  donated  $150  each, 
Presidio  $115,  Santa  Cruz  $105,  Hydraulic,  Quartz, 
Uolden  Gate,  Sunset,  Stockton.  $100  each.  In  lact, 
wherever  a  Parlor  has  understood  the  project,  the 
donation  has  been  adequate.  Tt  has,  however,  re- 
quired more  time  and  caused  more  delay  to  present 
the  matter  to  the  Parlors  so  the  members  did  un- 
derstand, than  any  other  cause. 

Artists,  ouilders.  producers  of  material,  transpor- 
tation companies,  publishers,. contractors,  etc,  have 
been  interviewed  and  have  promised  concessions 
amounting  to  many  thousands  of  dollars.  Designs 
are  now  being  prepared  by  leading  artists  of  the 
State  for  the  consideration  and  decision  of  the  com- 
mittee. The  arranging  of  Gen.  McGlashan's  "His- 
tory of  the  Donner  Party."  for  publication  in  spec- 
ial edition  for  the  benefit  of  the  fund,  is  well  under 
headway  and  many  advance  orders  have  already 
been  taken,  it  is  to  be  sold  in  $5,  $3  and  $1.50 
bindings,  and  will  contain,  in  addition  to  the  his- 
tory proper,  several  chapters  explaining  the  char- 
acter of  the  organizations  of  N.  S.  G.  W.  and

Meetings  of  the  N.D.G.W.,  Grand  ParloT  Betsj 
Ross  Monument  Committee  were  held  April  26th 
and  May  17th,  Jennie  E.  Brown  of  Piedmont  Tai- 
lor, chairman,  Louise  Roussell  of  Oro  Fino  Parlor 
and  Susie  Christ,  Grand  Treasurer,  members  of  the 
committee,  being  present.  Owing  to  the  duties  that 
will  devolve  upon  her  as  Grand  President  next 
year,  Anna  F.  Lacy  of  Las  Lomas  Parlor  resigned 
as  a  member  of  the  committee,  and  Miss  Roussell 
was    appointed    in    her    stead. 

Many  suggestions  were  made  as  to  the  most  ap- 
propriate monument,  the  most  favored  idea  being 
a  large  flagpole  having  a  fine  stone  base,  suitably 
engraved,  and  an  American  flag.  The  unanimous 
opinion  of  the  committee  was  to  place  the  memorial 
in  the  Panama-Pacific  Exposition  grounds,  when 
selected,  and  to  present  it  to  San  Francisco,  as  a 
permanent    feature.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


June,    1911 


fcg§§©§  to  ftlhi©  Tw®mifty=Fnfflii 


(Prepared   for   The    Grizzly   Eear   by   a  Member  of   Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  26,  N.  D.  G.  W.) 


ANTA  CRUZ  PARLOR,  NO.  26,  N.  D. 
G.W.,  was  instituted  March  17,  1888, 
under  very  favorable  circumstances, 
Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  90,  N.  S.  G. 
\\\,  taking  an  active  part  in  planning 
for  the  event.  They  were  our  broth- 
ers then,  our  brothers  now,  and  have 
always,  during  the  past  twenty-three 
years,  shown  us  many  courtesies,  and 
been  ever  ready  to  assist  us  if  as- 
sistance was  necessary.  We  have  en- 
joyed many  social  affairs  with  them 
in  years  past;  of  late  years,  only  a  joint  installa- 
tion occasionally. 

Our  membership  has  never  reached  the  one-hun- 
dred mark,  but  the  members  of  Santa  Cruz  Parlor, 
No.  26,  have  never  striven  for  large  numbers,  rather 
looking  for  quality  than  quantity.  It  has  not  been 
our  policy  to  seek  members,  but  rather  letting  those 
eligible  signify  a  desire  to  join  with  us.  "We  have 
tried  to  guard  the  reputation  of  our  Parlor,  as 
we  would  our  own.  As  in  all  organizations,  dif- 
ferences of  opinion  have  arisen,  but  fortunately 
they  have  never  caused  any  serious  results,  as  our 
members  have  tried  to  look  at  such  from  a  broad 
and  liberal   standpoint. 

We  have  stood  for  the  best  in  our  beautiful  city 
by  the  sea — the  City  of  the  Holy  Cross — and  have 
cheerfully  given  our  assistance,  moral  and  financial, 
to  any  project  which  was  for  civic  improvement. 
Perhaps  the  one  thing  in  which  we  feel  the  greatest 
pride,  is  our  city  ambulance,  which  was  presented 
to  the  city  in  October,  1907,  "through  the  efforts 
of  Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  26,  N.  D.  G.  W."  We 
have  not  been  a  Parlor  that  has  taken  up  all  the 
fads  and  fancies,  but  have  always  aimed  to  conduct 
our  affairs  in  a  business-like  manner,  looking  to  our 
receipts  and  expenditures. 

Fortunately,  our  members  have  enjoyed  good 
healtn,  which  could  hardly  be  otherwise,  living  in 
such  a  garden  spot  as  Santa  Cruz,  and  therefore  our 


finances  have  not  been  materially  lessened  through 
illness.  We  have  passed  through  fire,  and  our  be- 
longings were  damaged;  but  being  insured,  we 
sustained  no  very  serious  loss.  Our  members  have 
enjoyed  many  happy  evenings  among  themselves, 
for  we  possess  a  variety  of  good  talent,  which  has 
been  cheerfully  given  for  our  entertainment. 

The  personnel  of  our  Parlor  has  changed  some- 
what, many  of  our  older  and  charter  members  hav- 
ing withdrawn  or  resigned,  and  five  have  passed 
to  the  Great  Beyond,  but  these  have  left  their 
"footprints  on  the  sands  of  time."  Our  officers 
have  been  very  faithful,  several  of  them  having 
served  in  the  same  office  for  many  years.  This 
shows  that  we  appreciate  good  service.  As  mem- 
bers of  the  Grand  Parlor,  the  representatives  from 
Santa  truz  Parlor  have  followed,  the  dictates  of 
their  own  conscience,  making  it  their  aim  to  stand 
for  the  right,  as  they  saw  it. 

Ana  now  that  the  Grand  Parlor  of  1911  is  to  be 
with  us,  we  extend  to  you,  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West,  fraternal  greetings,  and  trust  that 
your  coming  among  us  and  the  people  of  Santa  Cruz, 
may  be  one  of  those  occasions  pleasant  for  us  all 
to  remember. — S.  F.

Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 

West,  Effects  a  Permanent  Organization — Officers 

Installed,  Etc. 

(Reproduced  from  the  Santa  Cruz  Sentinel  of 
March  IS,  1888.) 

The  meeting  of  the  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West  at  Masonic  Hall  last  night  was  one  of 
the  most  pleasant  events  of  the  year.  Besides  the 
institution  of  Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  26,  the  instal- 
lation of  the  first  omcers  of  the  Parlor  took  place  in 
the  presence  of  dative  Sons  of  this  city  and  visiting 
members  of  the  Order.  Four  handsome  *oil-painted 
banners,  kindly  loaned  by  Oro  Fino  Parlor,  No.  9, 


of  San  Francisco,  were  displayed  on  this  occasion 
and  went  a  great  ways  toward  beautifying  the  hall. 
The  Grand  officers  arrived  on  the  5:55  narrow- 
gauge  train  and  were  met  at  the  depot  by  Miss 
Anna  Helmke,  Miss  May  Baldwin,  Miss  Mollie  Mor- 
gan, Miss  Minnie  Rennie;  Messrs.  F.  J.  Laird -and 
Chas.  Madeira,  and  escorted  to  the  Pacific  Ocean 
House.

Watson,  D.  D.  G.  P.,  assisted  by  the  following  grand 
officers:  Miss  Lizzie  Dobble,  Grand  Past  President; 
Mtiss  M.  Roberts,  Grand  Vice-President;  Mrs.  C.  C. 
O'Donnell,  Grand  Marshal;  Mrs.  H.  M.  Green,  Grand 
Recording  Secretary;  Miss  -Kate  Meighan,  Grand 
Treasurer;  Miss  Hattie  Hopkins,  Grand  Sentinel. 

The  following  officers  were  duly  installed  and 
clothed  with  appropriate  regalias  furnished  for  the 
occasion  by  Oro  Fino  Parlor:  Past  president,  Miss 
Minnie  Rennie;  president,  Miss  Anna  Helmke;  first 
vice-president.  Miss  May  Baldwin;  second  vice-presi- 
dent, Miss  Ada  Bennett;  third  vice-president,  Miss 
Jennie  Chace;  recording  secretary,  Miss  Mary  E. 
Morgan;  financial  secretary.  Miss  Daisy  Longley; 
treasurer,  Miss  Pearl  Makinney;  marshal,  Miss 
Stella  Finkeldey;  inside  guard,  Miss  Rose  McPher- 
son;  outside  guard,  Miss  Effie  Carter;  trustees — Miss

ver well. 

At  the  conclusion  of  the  program  in  the  Parlor, 
an  adjournment  was  taken  and  all  were  invited  to 
tne  banquet  hall,  which  presented  a  brilliant  appear- 
ance. The  four  large  dining-tables  were  handsomely 
decorated  with  bouquets  of  flowers,  and  at  each 
plate  was  a  tasty  boutoniere  and  a  souvenir  napkin. 
At  one  end  of  the  dinner-room  was  a  huge  bank  of 
flowers,  that  added  greatly  to  the  decorations. 

une  of  the  jolliest  gatherings  of  youth  and  beauty 
that  could  be  found  in  any  community,  assembled 
around  the  festive  board  and  partook  of  the  viands 
with  the  relisu  in  keeping  with  a  true  Native,  while 
social  converse  and  merry  laughter  intermingled, 
helped  to  make  this  part  of  the  evening's  festivi- 
ties most  enjoyable. 

A  number  of  visiting  members,  Sons  and  Daugh 
ters,  from  San  Francisco,  were  present  and  enjoyed 
the  hospitality  of  the  members  of  Santa  Cruz  Par- 
lor, Native  Daughters,  to  whom  great  credit  is  due 
for  making  this,  their  first  entertainment,  a  grand 
social  suecess.  Among  these  were  Samuel  S.  Brower 
of  Pacific  Parlor,  No.  10,  and  John  T.  Dispaux  and 
P.  G.  Dupuy  of  National  Parlor,  No.  118. 


CHOOSE  BETWEEN  THESE  TWO  GOOD  CITII 


Oroville— Argonaut  Parlor,  No.  8,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  is 
going  to  Santa  Cruz  with  a  delegation  composed  of 
A.  F.  Jones,  Past  Grand  President,  A.  E.  Boynton. 
Geo.  E.  Springer,  W.  H.  Hibbard  and  H.  J.  Marks, 
with  the  distinct  purpose  of  getting  the  1912  Grand 
Parlor  of  N.  S.  G.  W.  for  this  city.  They  promise 
the  delegates  the  time  of  their  lives,  and  will  ar- 
range to  have  the  annual  Water  Carnival  held  dur- 
ing  the   week   of   the   meeting. 

The  Board  of  City  Trustees  and  Chamber  of  Com- 
merce have  passed  resolutions  unanimiously  endors- 
ing the  plan  of  Argonaut  Parlor  to  get  the  1912 
Grand  Parlor,  and  have  pledged  financial  support  to 
the  enterprise.  The  people  of  Oroville  and  Butte 
County  generally  are  also  behind  the  movement  to 
have  Oroville  named  as  the  1912  Grand  Parlor 
city. 

Argonaut  Parlor's  campaign  committee  has  sent 
the  following  letter  to  all  the  Parlors  of  the  Order, 
and  will  be  on  hand  at  Santa  Cruz  with  tons  of 
literature  and  orange  blossoms  to  help  convince  the 
delegates  that  Oroville  is  the  proper  place  for  the 
1912  session: 

"We  take  this  opportunity  to  again  invite  the 
Grand  Parlor  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
to  visit  us  at  Oroville,  where  the  session  of  1900  was 
held.  The  delegates  to  the  Grand  Parlor  on  that 
occasion  made  the  members  of  Argonaut  Parlor  feel 
that  they  were  indeed  receiving  a  lot  of  brothers,  as 
well  as  distinguished  citizens  of  the  State  of  Cali- 
fornia, and  they  were  so  pleased  with  their  visitors 
that  they  have  patiently  waited  tile  time  to  arrive 
when  they  could  request  them  to  return.  At  that 
time  we  extended  to  the  Grand  Parlor  and  its  mem- 
bers all  the  courtesies  which  our  limited  resources 
would  allow,  and  we  regretted  the  circumstances 
which  made  us  unable  to  do  all  that  we  wished,  and 
to  extend  many  courtesies  in  addition  to  those  we 
at  that  time  did  extend. 

"This  period  of  time  has  changed  the  situation, 
and  as  our  Order  has  grown  and  prospered,  so  has 
onr  city.  At  that  time  but  two  trains  ran  daily 
each  way  in  and  out  of  Oroville;  now  it  requires 
twenty-four  trains  daily  to  attend  to  the  wants  of 
the  traveling  public,  and  our  city  has  improved  ac- 
cordingly in  every  way.  We  want  to  show  it  to 
you;  we  want  to  greet  you  at  our  home,  and  we 
earnestly  request  your  assistance  in  giving  to  us 
the  session  of  the  Grand  Parlor  for  1912." 


Fresno — At  meetings  of  the  N.D.G.W.  and  N,  S. 
G.  W.,  held  here  during  the  week  of  May  16th, 
the  delegates  who  go  to  Santa  Cruz  were  given 
final   instructions. 

■  Fresno  is  out  for  the  Grand  Parlors  of  Native 
Sons  and  Native  Daughters  for  1912.  The  local 
Parlors  have  the  moral  and  financial  support  of 
the  County  Supervisors,  the  Chamber  of  Commerce, 
the  Merchants'  Association,  the  Mayor  and  Board 
of  City  Trustees,  and  every  man,  woman  and  child 
in  the  county,  and  the  delegates  have  been  in- 
structed to  come  back  from  Santa  Cruz  with  orders 
in  their  pockets  for  the  two  Grand  Parlors  next 
year,  or  not  to  come  back  at  all. 

The  people  of  Fresno  believe  there  are  several 
reasons  why  they  should  be  favored  in  this  matter. 
Inside  the  city  limits  of  Fresno  there  is  a  stone 
which  marks  the  geographical  center  of  the  State 
of  California.  Tms  fact  should  mean  a  saving  in 
transportation  charges  and  would  not  compel  the 
delegates  from  one  end  of  the  State  to  travel  anv 
farther  than  those  from  the  other  end. 

Fresno  wishes  to  become  known  as  the  conven- 
tion eity  of  the  coast,  and  has  successfully  enter- 
tained many  large  delegations  within  the  last  year 
or  so.  The  experience  thus  gained  will  enable 
the  local  committee  to  handle  gatherings,  such  as 
the  Grand  Parlors,  in  a  satisfactory  and  business- 
like manner,  and  the  "Raisin  City,"  with  about 
thirty  thousand  inhabitants,  could  take  care  of  the 
delegates  and  all  others  who  might  see  fit  to  at- 
tend, without  any  trouble  or  inconvenience.  And 
unless  all  plans  fail.  Fresno  will  be  able  to  boast 
of  the  finest  convention  hall  in  the  State  within 
another  year. 


Anotner  matter  which  will  be  brought  to  the 
attention  of  the  delegates  at  Santa  Cruz  is  the  fact 
that  Fresno  has  not  had  the  honor  of  entertaining 
the  Grand  Parlor  for  over  twenty  years.  As  for 
entertainment,  the  local  committee  will  guarantee 
plenty  of  that,  and  of  the  kind  that  will  be  remem- 
bered long  after  many  other  important  matters  have 
been  forgotten. 

The  Fresno  delegates,  Mamie  G.  Vietor,  Ed. 
Vietor  and  W,  F.  Toomey,  are  going  to  do  some  real 
boosting  in  Santa  Cruz,  and  no  doubt  all  the  dele- 
gates will  become  so  well  acquainted  with  them 
there  that  they  will  have  no  difficulty  in  recogniz- 
-iig  them  when  they  come  to  Fresno  in  1912.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


1911 


t  ARY  AUSTIN,  a  California  author- 
ess of  note,  has  written  a  stirring 
drama  of  American  Indian  Life,  en- 
titled "The  Arrow  Maker,"  which 
was  staged  during  the  New  York 
theatrical  season  just  closed.  Since 
its  successful  stage  production,  the 
play  has  appeared  in  book  form.  The 
action  takes  place  in  the  foothills  of 
the  Sierras,  California,  before  the 
white      occupation.        The      Chisera, 

i      medicine  woman  of  the  Sagharawite, 


a  tribe  of  the  riutes,  is  the  character  around  whom 
the  action  involves,  while  Simwa,  the  Arrow  Maker, 
is  the  villain.  He  scoffs  at  the  gods  and  holds  the 
Chisera  and  her  "medicine  making"  in  contempt. 
The  chief  has  grown  old  and  on  the  eve  of  war  6alls 
a  council  to  elect  a  war  leader  in  his  stead.  For  all 
his  contempt  of  the  Chisera 's  "magic,"  Simwa  un- 
derstands her  innuenee  over  the  tribe  and  pays 
secret  court  to  her,  so  that  when  she  is  called  in 
to.  declare  the  will  of  the  gods  in  the  matter  of 
leadership,  she  will  be  more  certain  to  discover  the 
supernatural  veruict  in  his  favor. 

The  Chisera,  following  tribal  custom,  is  compelled 
to  live  a  lonely  life  apart  from  the  daily  routine 
of  her  people.  She  is  love-hungry  and  the  tender 
advances  of  oimwa  win  her  heart.  She  makes  a 
"powerful  medicine"  for  him,  implores  the  favor 
of  the  gods  in  his  behalf,  goes  through  the  medicine 
aance  before  the  council,  tosses  the  prayer  sticks 
and  delivers  the  judgment  of  heaven  in  his  favor. 
The  Arrow  Maker  leads  his  tribe  to.  war  and  returns 
victor.  Dazzled  with  success  and  power,  he  forgets 
the  debt  he  owes  to  the  Chisera,  drops  her  when 
she  has  served  his  purpose  and  weds  the  chief's 
daughter.  The  Chisera,  her  house  of  love  fallen, 
denounces  Simwa  before  the  tribe,  retires  in  tragic 
gloom  to  her  tent  and  refuses  to  make  medicine  for 
her  people  or  to  implore  the  favor  of  the  gods  for 
Simwa. 

The  Sagharawites  are  called  to  another  war.  De- 
feat after  defeat  overtakes  them  and  the  tribe  is 
reduced  to  a  pitiful  state  of  distress  and  famine. 
The}'  implore  the  Chisera  to  use  her  magic,  but  she 
is  unj'ielding.  The  chief,  resolving  on  stern  meas- 
ures, summons  the  Chisera,  who  repents  and  seeks 
again  in  the  magic  dance  a  return  of  her  power. 
Simwa  is  deposed  and  Padahoon  declared  war 
leader  As  the  Chisera  chants  a  medicine  song,  the 
Arrow  Maker  stretches  his  bow  and  is  about  to 
loose  an  arrow  in  her  heart,  when  Padahoon  stays  his 
hand  and  slays  him. 


Sweet  Singer  Renders  Own  Composition. 

Ellen  Beach  Yaw  of  Los  Angeles,  one'  of  the 
State's  sweetest  singers,  and  one  of  California's 
greatest  boosters  in  her  concert  tours  throughout  the 
country,  has  composed  a  song  entitled  "California," 
which  she  sang  at  a  concert  given  in  Los  Angclc:-', 
May  26th,  for  the  benefit  of  the  Lark  Ellen  Hoine 
for  News  and  Working  Boys,  in  which  she  is  gieatly 
interested.  This  was  the  first  time  the  son^  had 
ever  been  sung,  and  Miss  Yaw  was  assisted  in  its 
rendition  by  a  chorus  of  newsboys.  The  words 
follow: 

California!     Glorious  Land! 

What  mystery  do 'st  thou  hold? 
Thy  name  through  the  Universe 

Is  writ  in  shining  gold. 
j  ne  eyes  01  every  nation 

Are  turned  toward  thee  now. 
For  God  has  placed  with  gracious  hand 

A   wreath  upon  thy  brow. 

CHORUS. 
California!      California! 

Earth's  own  charmed  land! 
Thy  name  through  all  eternity 

Is  writ  by  God's  Own  hand! 

Wondrous  Land  of  Sunshine, 
That  draws  men  unto  thee,

•  Plays  for  Next  Season. 

The  1910-11  theatrical  season  is  considered  at  an 
end  in  the  East,  where  all  new  plays  and  players 
have  their  tryouts,  and  then  are  sent  to  various  sec- 
tions of  the  country.  While  an  occasional  star  will 
continue  to  illumine  the  California  theatrical  sky, 
however,  during  the  "closed"  season,  the  efforts  of 
Eastern  booking  agencies  in  our  behalf  are  now 
being  very  largely  directed  toward  the  1911-12  sea- 
son. 

Word  comes  from  New  York  that  John  Cort  has 
already  billed  these  attractions  for  the  independent 
theaters  in  California  for  the  new  season: 
John  Mason,  in  "As  a  Man  Thinks;"  Sam  Ber- 
nard, in  "He  Came  from  Milwaukee;"  Forbes 
Robertson  in  "The  Passing  of  the  Third  Floor 
Back;"  Walker  Whiteside;  Mme.  Naziniova;  May 
Irwin,  in  ' l  Getting  a  Polish ;  "  ' '  The  Deep  Purple ; ' ' 
"Pomander  Walk;"  William  Collier,  in  "I'll  Be 
Hanged  if  I  Do;"  "Excuse  Me;"  "The  Great  Un- 
known;" Henry  W.  Savage's  "Everywoman; " 
Puccini's  grand  opera,  "The  Girl  of  the  Golden 
West;"  Frank  hash,  in  "The  Gamblers;"  Mrs.  Les- 
lie Carter,  in  ' '  Two  Women ;  "  ' c  Baby  Mine ; ' ;  "  The 
Chocolate  Soldier;"  "The  Fourth  Estate;"  Hol- 
brook  Blinn,  in  "The  Boss;"  Grace  George,  in 
"Sause  for  the  Goose;"  Fritzi  Scheff,  in  "Mile. 
Rosita. ' ' 


A  Word  of  Warning. 

To  the  Editor  of  The  Grizzly  Bear— Dear  Sir-  A 
man  by  the  name  of  W.  E.  Graham  came  amongst  us 
recently,  claiming  to  be  a  promoter  of  dramas.  He 
induced  the  Native  Daughters  of  Tejon  Parlor,  No. 
136,  to  let  him  put  on  a  play  under  the  Parlor's 
auspices.  He  failed  to  make  good  in  any  particular 
and  the  Parlor  is  still  receiving  "duns"  for  ex- 
penses incurred  by  him,  and  which  he  wa*  tn  have 
paid  out  of  the  proceeds  from  the  play. 

We  think  it  well  to  sound  a  warning  through  The 
Grizzly  Bear  for  the  benefit  of  the  N.  D.  G.  W.  and 
N.  S.  G.  W.,  should  this  man  attempt  to  repeat  his 
scheme  in  other  localities.  Respectfully, 

D.  D.  G.  P.,  N.  D.  G.  W.

Nevada  City — The  series  of  debates  in  Hydraulic  Parlor, 

,    N.   S.  G.  W.,  continue  to  draw  a  large  attendance. 

On  May  9th,  the  subject  was.  "Resolved,  That  the  young 
men  of  early  days  had  a  better  opportunity  than  the  young 
men  of  the  present  dav."  The  affirmative  was  handled  by 
Jo  V.  Snyder  and  W.  B.  Celio,  while  J.  F.  Colley  and 
Leo  Huy  debated  the  negative  side.  Very  able  arguments

further  discussions  will  be  continued  until  the  winter 
months.

W    J.  Jamison,   was  unanimousyl  adopted: 

l"n  the  Officers  and  Brothers  of  Marysville  Parlor,  No.  6, 
\  S.  G.  W. — On  August  9,  1881,  there  came  into  being, 
in  the  county  of  Yuba,  State  of  Caliornia,  one  who,  by 
reason  of  birth,  was  eligible  to  membership  in  the  Order 
of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West.  On  April  10,  1908, 
James  Patterson  Mclsaac  became  a  member  of  Marysville 
Parlor,  .no.  6.  and  until  his  death.  May  9,  1911,  was  an 
ardent  and  faithful  member  of  the  Order.  But  God,  Whose 
acts  we  dare  not  question,  saw  fit  to  remove  him  from 
our  Parlor  to  the  Parlor  on  High,  and  we  can  but  bow 
to  His  divine  wisdom;   and 


Whereas,    it   is  fitting  and   proper   thai    the  men

PARLOR  HOSTS 

(Continued     from     Supplement     '.'■,     Column     3) 

members  were:  K.  B.  Miller,  \V.  D.  Ha  si  am,  C.  A. 
Uanfield,  3.  B.  Miller,  C.  II.  Ward,  Alberl  Miller, 
II.  II.  Miller,  P.  K.  Roberts,  P.  Thompson,  II.  Laird, 
W.  Vahlberg,  Frank  Griffith,  George  Carpy.  and 
Underwood  MeCann,  In  all,  :i  total  of  twenty-nine 
cnarter  members.    This  first  meeting  concluded  with 

a  banquet  tendered  to  the  grand  ofl rs  and  visiting 

brothers  at  a  local  restaurant. 

Maintains  Own  Hall  and  Club-Rooms. 

1  he  Parlor  continued  to  hold  its  meetings  for 
some  uttle  time  at  the  Odd  Fellows'  hall,  and  ihi  n 
moved  to  the  Masonic  hall,  where  it  remained  lor 
several  years;  but  for  the  last  fifteen  years  it  has 
occupied  a  hall  of  its  own  neat  fitting  and  furnish 
iug,  known  as  the  native  Sons'  nail,  and  Located 
in  the  Hoffman  building,  in  the  center  of  the  city. 
This  hall  is  rented  every  evening — other  than  Tues- 
day evening,  the  regular  meeting  of  the  Parlor — to 
other  fraternal  orders,  from  which  the  Parlor  de- 
rives a  good  revenue  for  its  treasury.  In  connection 
with  the  hall  is  a  well-appointed  club-room  for  the 
use  of  members  and  invited  guests,  containing  bil- 
liard, pool  and  card  tables,  a  piano  and  reading 
matter,  and  here  many  a  pleasant  evening  is  spent. 
This  club-room  is  also  used  for  whist  tournaments 
duriug  the  winter  months,  and  for  the  special 
spreads  so  delectably  prepared  by  Brother  E.  Alzina 
and  which  are  generally  given  on  the  occasion  of  a 
class  initiation  of  new  members,  V  hese  have  be- 
come quite  a  feature  of  the  Parlor  in  recent  years 
and  have  added  materially  to  its  present  large  mem- 
bership. At  the  class  initiations,  and  the  light 
banquets  that  follow,  there  are  generally  present 
one  of  the  grand  officers  and  several  visiting  broth 
ers  from  other  Parlors;  and  with  the  talks  and 
witty  stories  of  the  visitors,  and  the  various  fcal 
ents  of  the  different  members  of  the  Parlor,  these 
meetings  are  looked  forward  to  for  much  entertain- 
ment and  pleasure. 

Has  Been  Host  on  Several  Occasions. 

Santa  Cruz  Parlor  now  numbers  2S4  membei  3, 
which  shows  how  it  has  grown  since  its  incepti  in; 
and  the  personnel  of  its  membership  represents  the 
sturdy  young  manhood  of  the  city,  who  appre- 
ciate the  high  moral  principles  for  which  the  Order 
stands — its  veneration  of  our  Pioneer  Fathers  and 
Mothers,  and  the  days  of  '49.  The  Order  being. i 
benificiary  one.  this  Parlor,  during  the  past  years, 
has  distributed  much  relief  to  its  members  who 
have  been  in  distress.  It  is  also  not  unmindful,  and 
holds  in  hallowed  memory  those  former  brothers 
who  so  untimely  have  ceased  this  earthly  career  a  id 
passed  on  to  the  Heavenly  Parlor. 

Four  times  has  this  Parlor,  with  the  assistance 
of  the  citizens  of  Santa  Cruz,  had  the  honor  and 
pleasure  of  entertaining  the  Native  Suns  of  Cali- 
fornia at  the  annual  Admission  Day  celebration. 
The  city  itself  being  so  well  situated  and  equipped 
for  the  handling  of  such  large  crowds,  with  ' 'i  ■  besi 
and  safest  bathing  beach  on  the  coast  and  :i  inple 
accommodations  lor  all,  have  undoubtedly  been 
reasons  why  it  has  been  selected  so  olten  in  com- 
parison to  other  places,  for  the  celebration;  and 
probably  will  continue  to  be  in  the  future. 

In  the  year  1902  the  Grand  Parlor  of  Native  Suns 
met  in  Santa  Cruz  for  the  first  time.  And  during 
this  month  of  June  it  is  scheduled  to  meet  h.>re 
again. 

Santa  Cruz  Parlor  awaits  the  meetings  of  tlr- 
1911  Grand  Parlor  with  its  well-established  record 
for  hospitality,  and  believes  it  will  have  better  facil- 
ities than  ever  before  for  the  entertain raenl  acd 
accommodation  of  the  delegates,  and  has  some 
special  features  in  the  way  of  entertainment  for  its 
guests  while  here. 

A  Welcome  to  All — the  More  the  Merrier. 
So  the  word  is  ' '  welcome, ' '  and  the  wish,  • '  ,i  pleas 
ant  time  for  all  who  may  come.  '  And  the  more 
the  merrier,  for  Santa  Cruz  can  take  good  care  of 
you.  At  the  meetings  of  the  Grand  Parlor.  Santa

fare  of  botb  Orders;  I  like  The  Grizzly  Bear  because 
of  its  far-seeing  insight  into  the  Asiatic  question 
and  because  of  its  determined  stand  against  Asiatic 
invasion;  1  like  The  Grizzly  Bear  because,  through 
its  columns,  which  are  so  generously  placed  at  our 
disposal,  1  am  enabled  to  keep  in  touch  with  the 
Parlors  of  the  State,  and  thus  learn  what  other 
members  of  the  Order  are  doing  for  the  good  of  the 
State  we  all  love  so  well. 

A  good  piece  of  work  accomplished  by  one  Parlor 
will  naturally  inspire  others.  Lastly,  I  like  The 
Grizzly  Bear  because  it  has  so  willingly  extended 
a  helping  band  to  the  undeveloped  talent  within  the 
two  Orders.  In  the  years  to  come,  I  believe  that 
many  a  successful  author  will  thank  The  Grizzly 
Bear  for  his  first  boost  up  the  ladder  of  success. 
These  are  the  principal  reasons  why  I  like  The 
Grizzly  Bear.  There  are  several  others  which  your 
space  and  my  time  will  not  allow  me  to  state.  Suf- 
fice it  say:  I  LIKE  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAR  and  am 
wholly   satisfied   with  it   as   our   official   organ. 

I  hope  it  will  be  re-endorsed  as  the  official  organ 
of  both  Orders,  and  that  both  the  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  Grand  Parlors  will  continue  their 
financial  aid.     Fraternally, 

ANNA  I.  DEMPSEY, 
Grand  Trustee,   Ii.D.G.W. 


MERITS  HEARTY  SUPPORT. 

Redding,  May  9th. 
Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Company — Dear  Sirs  and 
Brothers:  I  am  in  favor  of  the  re-endorsement  of 
The  Grizzly  Bear  as  the  official  organ  of  the  Order. 
I  regard  it  as  an  excellent  publication;  one  that 
is  of  great  benefit  to  the  Order  and  meriting  the 
hearty  support  of  every  Native  Son  and  Native 
Daughter  of  the  Golden  West. 

I  read  with  interest,  pleasure  and  profit  every 
number,  and  carefully  file  every  one  away  for 
future  reference.  You  have  my  encouragement  and 
good  will  in  your  laudable  efforts  to  produce  a 
superior  monthly  magazine,  championing  the  cause 
of  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West,  and  telling  the  tales  of  the  Pioneers. 
Fraternally   and   sincerely, 

J.   E.  BARBER, 
Grand  Trustee,   N.S.G.W. 


DOImE  MOST  FOR  ORDER. 

San  Francisco,  April  27th. 

Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Co. — Dear  Sirs:  As  Past 
Grand  President  of  the  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West,  and  having  had  an  opportunity  of 
securing  an  expression  from  every  Parlor  in  the 
State  last  year  in  regard  to  The  Grizzly  Bear,  I 
have  no  hesitancy  in  saying  that  I  believe  that  this 
publication  has  done  more  to  further  the  interests 
of  the  Order  and  to  bring  about  a  closer  relation- 
ship among  the  members,  than  could  possibly  have 
been  accomplished  in  any  other  way. 

I  have  noticed  that  when  the  columns  of  The 
Grizzly  Bear  have  been  used  freely  by  the  grand 
officers  and  publicity  committees  of  the  various  Par- 
lors, there  has  been  a  decided  gain  in  membership, 
a  greater  number  of  new  Parlors  instituted,  an  added 
interest  along  patriotic  lines,  and  a  renewed  interest 
in  social  affairs.  Owing  to  the  fact  that  new  ideas 
are  constantly  appearing  in  these  columns,  is  it  any 
wonder  that  this  medium  of  communication  between 
Parlors  has  been  the  means  of  bringing  muck  help- 
fulness to  heretofore  discouraged  Parlors  and  show- 
ing the  members  a  way  to  become  as  prosperous  and 
self-reliant  as  the±r  more  fortunate  sisters? 

Trusting  that  the  next   Grand   Parlor,   and   each 
succeeding  one,  will  see  that  the  small  financial  as-

GRAND  PARLOR  SHOULD  RE-ENDORSE. 

Grizzly  Bear  Pub.  Co. — My  Dear  Sirs  and  Bros.: 
Replying  to  your  letter  of  April  24th  asking  my 
opinion  of  The  Grizzly  Bear,  I  will  say  that  it  is 
exactly  what  is  wanted  by  our  Order.  The  official 
list  of  the  officers  of  the  Parlors  is  alone  worth 
the  money,  as  it  is  kept  up-to-date  and  is  the  only 
way  to  do  those  things.  As  an  official  mouthpiece 
of  the  Grand  Secretary's  office,  it  saves  the  Grand 
Parlor  probably  twice  the  amount  that  you  ask 
from  the  Grand  Parlor. 

I  heartily  endorse  the  management  of  the  maga- 
zine for  the  way  in  which  is  has  conducted  its 
business,  and  the  Grand  Parlor  could  do  no  better 
than   to  make  the  same  contract  with  you  that  it 


DRINK  HABIT 

The  Gatlin  Treatment  Cures  Liquor  Drinking  in  THREE  DAYS  Under 
Contract — No  Hypodermic  Injections  or  Other  Disagreeable  Features 

The  Gatlin  Institute  was  established  eleven  years  ago.  More  than  eleven  thousand  men  and 
women  have  been  cured  of  liquor  drinking  by  the  Gatlin  treatment — there  has  been  failure  to  cure 
in  no  case. 

No  hypodermic  injections;  no  bad  after  effects,  no  poisonous  drugs,  no  substitutive  stimulants — 
a    treatment    so    harmless    that    any    child    could    take   it. 

Each  patient  is  accepted  for  treatment  under  legal  contract  to  cure  in  THREE  DAYS — the 
cure  to  be  entirely  satisfactory  in  every  particular  or  the  fee  paid  is  refunded  when  the  patient 
is   leaving  the  institute  and  treatment  costs  nothing. 

The  Gatlin  Home  treatment  is  just  as  effective  as  Institute  treatment  if  plain,  simple  direc- 
tions are  followed. 

Call   or   write   for  books  of  particulars,  copies  of  contracts  to  cure  and  other  information.

DESERVES  MORAL  AND  FINANCIAL  SUPPORT 

San  Miguel,  May  13,  1911. 
Pubs.  Grizzly  Bear — Gentlemen:  Your  communi- 
cation at  hand.  If  my  support  as  one  of  the  Grand 
Trustees  of  the  N.D.G.W,  will  be  of  any  aid  to 
you,  you  shall  certainly  have  it.  Both  as  a  maga- 
zine and  the  official  organ  of  both  Orders,  I  con- 
sider The  Grizzly  Bear  is  deserving  of  all  the  moral 
and  financial  support  each  member  can  contribute. 
Yours  respectfully, 

MAMIE  FITZGERALD., 

Grand  Trustee,  N.D.G.W; 


NO  OTHER  FACTOR  HAS  DONE  MORE. 

Grizzly  Bear  Publishing  Co. — Gentlemen:  An  offi- 
cial organ  of  a  fraternal  society  in  this  age  is  not 
only  a  custom,  but  an  absolute  necessity.  I  have 
always  favored  an  official  organ  of  our  Order,  and 
feel  that  The  Grizzly  Bear  is  doing  a  great  deal 
to  maintain  and  build  up  our  society. 

I  certainly  consider  that  no  other  factor  in  our 
fraternal  life  does  more  for  the  Order  than  The 
Grizzly  Bear.  It  is  keenly  appreciated  through- 
out tne  State  by  those  interested  in  California  and 
its  progress.  It  is  also  appreciated  by  the  few  re- 
maining Argonauts  who  read  the  interesting 
sketches  of  their  early  associates,  whose  ranks  are 
being  decimated  by  Father  Time. 
Very  respectfully, 

H.  R.  McNOBLE, 
Past  Grand  President,  N.S.G.W. 


OF  GREAT  VALUE  TO  ORDER. 

Secretary  Grizzly  Bear  Pub.  Co. — Dear  Sir:  Your 
communication  of  April  26th,  reached  me  in  due 
time  and  contents  duly  noted.  In  reply  to  same,  I 
wish  to  state  that,  as  a  grand  officer  and  a  member 
of  the  Order  of  N.D.G.W.,  I  consider  The  Grizzly 
Bear  magazine  of  great  value  and  interest  to  the 
N.D.G.W.  and  look  forward  to  each  issue  with  as 
much  interest  as  I  would  to  the  visit  of  a  friend. 

I  enjoy  it  very  much  and  do  not  see  how  the 
N.D.G.W.  could  get  along  without  it.  Wishing 
The  Grizzly  Bear  continued  success,  and  prosperity 
in  the  future  as  in  the  past, 

Sincerely  and  Fraternally, 

SUSIE   K.    CHRIST, 
Grand  Treasurer,  N.D.G.W. 


Charter  President  for  Grand  Organist. 

Oakland— Piedmont  Parlor,  No.  87,  N.  D.  G.  W., 
will  present  the  name  of  Jennie  E.  Brown  for  Grand 
Organist,  at  we  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor.  Its 
candidate  was  the  charter  president  of  the  Parlor, 
which  was  instituted  fifteen  years  ago,  and  she  has 
to  her  credit  the  organization  of  three  Parlors  in 
Oakland.

EFFORT  BE1MG  MADE  TO 

SAVE  THE  PORTSMOUTH 

At  a  meeting  of  Mission  Parlor,  No.  38,  N.  S. 
G.W.  (San  Francisco),  May  10th,  Dan  Q.  Troy  intro- 
duced the  following  resolution,  which  was  unani- 
mously adopted  and  forwarded  to  the  Secretary  of 
the  Navy  at  Washington: 

Whereas,  It  is  reported  in  the  public  prints  that 
it  is  the  intention  of  the  Navy  Department  to  con- 
demn and  sell  the  historic  sloop-of-war,  "  Ports- 
mouth"; and 

Whereas,  The  "Portsmouth"  is  intimately  con- 
nected with  the  nistory  of  San  Francisco,  having 
entered  this  port  in  1846  bearing  the  United  States 
troops  that  took  possession  of  this  State;  therefore 
be  it 

Resolved.  By  Mission  Parlor,  No.  38,  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West,  that  we  protest  against  this 
desecration  of  a  ship  that  should  be  preserved  as 
a  relic  of  pioneer  days;   and  further  be  it 

Resolved,  That  we  request  the  Honorable  Secre- 
tary of  the  Navy  to  place  the  "Portsmouth"  in 
repair  and  send  her  to  San  Francisco,  that  she  may 
be  properly  preserved  and  cared  for  by  this  State, 
and  we  pledge  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
to  see  that  proper  means  will  be  taken  to  such  end. 

These  resolutions  have  since  been  adopted  by  the 
ban  Francisco  delegates  to  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand 
Parlor  and  telegraphed  to  Congressman  J.  R.  Know- 
land,  Past  Grand  President.  The  Secretary  of  the 
iNavy  has  repliea  that  the  "Portsmouth  has  been 
transferred  to  service  under  the  Treasury  Depart- 
ment. "  On  April  17th,  the  San  Francisco  Board  of 
Supervisors  passed  similar  resolutions,  and  on  May 
11th,  the  Friendly  Club  of  San  Francisco  adopted 
strong  resolutions,  both  of  which  were  telegraphed 
to  Washington,  it  is  very  likely  the  matter  of  the 
disposition  of  the  Portsmouth  will  come  before  the 
Grand  Parlor  at  Santa  Cruz,  and  a  strong  effort 
made  to  have  the  Order  use  its  endeavors  to  the 
end  that  the  old  ship  be  preserved,  as  it  should  be. 

The  matter  of  the  preservation  of  the  Portsmouth 
is  of  the  greatest  importane  to  the  Order  of  N.  S. 
G.  W.,  as  its  earyl  history  is  closely  interwoven  with 
tne  State's  early  history.  Surely,  in  later  years 
we  would  not  want  to  have  it  said  of  us,  as  an 
organization  instituted  to  preserve  the  State's  early 
history  and  landmarks,  that  we  permitted  this  age- 
infected  ship  to  be  lost  to  future  generations,  with- 
out action  on  our  part  to  stay  the  destroying  hand. 

Not  only  should  the  Grand  Parlor  use  every  legiti- 
mate means  to  save  the  Portsmouth,  but  every 
Subordinate  Parlor  in  the  Order  of  N.  S.  G.  W. 
should  immedately  telegraph  its  protest  against  the 
desecration  to  Washington.  Appeal  to  your  repre- 
sentatives in  Congress,  as  well  as  to  the  President 
and  the  head  of  the  Navy  Department. 


Salt  will  keep  meat,  but  it-requires  "sand"  to 
keep  a  good  resolution.

THE    CABIN. 

EOPLE  WHO  SPEND  TrihiR  \  i 
cations  in  tne  high  Sierras,  either 
aping  ii  i  he  big  ou1  doors  or  stop- 
ping :n  one  of  the  famous  resi 
will  find  Stewart  Edward  White's 
late  l k,  • '  The  Cabin,1  a  most  in- 
teresting one.  It  is  ni>t  a  novel,  but 
primarily  a  series  of  incidents  which 
are  worked  nut  in  a  simple  and  en- 
tertaining  way.  The  little  meadow 
where  Hie  rabin  is  to  be  built  is  de- 
Scribed  as  an  ideal  location,  <  >ne,  ac- 
customed  to  constructing  buildings  iu  a  crude  way. 
is  engaged  bo  engineer  this  important  piece  of 
workmanship.  Even  a  fireplace  is  installed,  and 
the  kitchen  equipped  in  true  camper  fashion.  Life 
now  can  be  enjoyed,  and  the  many  attractions 
which  the  mountains  offer,  arc  described  from  the 
aature-lover Js  standpoint,  .for  Stewart  Edward 
could  aol  disguise,  were  he  to  attempt  to  do  so, 
his  love   for  California's   mountains. 

His  chapter  on  trees  furnishes  most  striking  evi- 
dence of  this.  He  loves,  too,  the  old  mountaineer 
and  is  never  so  happy  as  when  he  engages  him  in 
conversation.  In  this  bunk,  as  in  "The  Rules  of 
the  uame, ' '  California  John  is  this  type  of  Califor- 
nia 's  pioneer.  Every  one  who  has  succeeded  in 
Bg  mountain  trout,  well  knows  the  difficulties 
he  encountered,  and  the  writer's  chapter  on 
"Trout  "  will  be  mosl  realistic.  Two  chapters  of 
unusual  interest  are  "Conduct  of  Life"  and  "The 
Ethical  Code,  '  California  John  being  the  central 
figure  of  each.  The  large  print  and  many  telling 
illustrations  add  to  the  book's  adaptability.  Here 
are  some  of  the  most  interesting  thoughts  in  the 
book: 

' '  1  don'1  care  what  you  know,  or  how  big  a 
head  you've  got.  or  what  sort  of  an  education, 
there's  about  four  million  things  you  don't  know 
nothin'  about.  Somebody  may  know  it,  but  you 
don't.  You  can  t  take  up  anything,  i  don't  care 
what  it  is  or  where  it  is,  without  getting  a  whole 
heap  of  new  knowledge  about  things  in  the  world, 
and  their  natur'  and  how  the  cussed  things  act.  A 
tiling  looks  simple  and  dead  easy  to  do — and  it 
ain  't.  ' ' 

"I've  often  noted  two  things  about  trees:  the 
stunted  little  twisted  fellows  have  had  a  heap  hard 
:  n ■<-.  ult.ii  with  wind  and  snow  and  poor  soil; — 
and  they  grow  farthest  up  on  the  big  peaks." 


ON    THE    LIFE-TRAIL. 
(By   Henry  Meade  Eland. ) 
keep  a-climbing. 

I  ow  the  stars  of  God  are  overhead; 
And  by  that  far-off  streaming  spirit-wand, 

The  meteor's  gleam.  I  know  that    I  am  led, 
Aud  so  1  keep  a-climbing. 

I  only  keep  a-climbing. 

II  may  be  yon  blue  range  will  be  the  last; 
It  may  be  many  others  He  beyond; 

And  yet  I  know  the  summit  will  be  passed. 
And  so  I  keep  a-climbing.

HERBERT  BASHTORDS  PLAY  A  SUCCESS. 

Mr.  Bashford's  many  friends  will  be  overjoyed  to 
know  of  the  reception  given  to  his  latest  drama. 
"The  Woman  He  Married,"  in  the  Southern 
states.  From  the  St.  Louis  Republican  comes  these 
most  appreciative  words:  "  There  is  a  great  deal 
1"  the  play.  It  is  clever  in  its  climaxes  and  well 
I  Its  theme  is  engaging  to  those  who  like  to 
believe  that  in  time  there  is  a  solution  to  all  the 
mean,  nasty,  hideous  sufferings  that  gall  the  culti- 
vated minorities,  and  that  man  is  wicked,  sinful 
,md  base  because  there  is  something  awry  between 
morals  and  masculine  instinct  and  the  accepted  but 
inefficient  social  code.1' 


"CARCASSONNE"    HAS  A   NEW   VERSION. 

Dr.  Edward  Robeson  Taylor,  San  Francisco's  ex- 
mayor,  has  written  a   version  of  Gustave  Nadaud's 

'  i  >  t -sMnne. "  the  poem  in  which  the  poor  French- 
man lieu  ails  the  fact  1  hat  he  has  never  seen  the 
city  of  his  dreams.  Dr.  Taylor  follows  this  version 
with  an  original  poem  entitled,  "Carcassonne  At- 
.''  in  which  he  develops  the  thought  that  only 
by  living  for  others  and  helping  those  who  have 
fallen  can  one  see  Carcassonne. 


NIGHT-TIME  IN  CALIFORNIA. 
(By   A.   J.    W-aterhouse.) 
Night-time   in   California.     There  'a   nothing   like   it

earth  around. 
The    skiefl  are   like   a    crystal   sea,   with    islands    made 

of  s  t ;  |  |  - ; 

The  moon's  a  fairy  ship  that  sails  among  its  shoals 

and  bai  s; 
And  on   thai    sea    I   sit  and  look,  and  wonder  where 

it  ends; 
If    I    shall    sail    its    phantom    wave    and    where    the 

journey  tends, 

And   if — in  vain   I   wonder;  let's  change  the  solemn 

theme, 
For  the  nights  of  California  were  made  for  man  to 

dream. 

Night-time    in    California.      The    cricket's    note    is 

heard. 
And  now  perhaps  the  twitter  of  a  drowsy,  dreaming 

bird.    . 
An  oar  is  splashing;  the  wakeful  frogs  reply. 
The  breeze  is  chanting  in  the  trees  a  ghostly  lullaby. 
The    moon    has    touched    with    silver    the    peaceful, 

sleeping  world, 
And  in  the  weary  soul  of  man  the  flag  of  sorrow's 

furled. 
lis  a   time  for  smiles  and  music;    'tis  a   time   for 

love  divine. 
For  the  nights  of  California  are  Heav7n   this  side 

the  line. 

Night-time  in  California.     Elsewhere  men  only  guess 

At    the   glory   of   the    evenings    that    are   perfect — 
nothing  less; 

But    here    ue    nights,    returning,    are    the   wondrous 
gifts  of  God — 

As   if  the  days  were  maidens  fair  with  golden  slip- 
pers shod. 

There  is  no  cloud  to  hide  the  sky;   the  universe  is 
ours, 

And  the  starligut  likes  to  look  and  laugh  in  Cupid- 
haunted  bowers. 

(>h.    the    restful,    peaceful    evenings!      in    them    my 
soul  delights. 

For  Cod  Loved  California  when  he  gave  to  her  her 
nights.

LECTURES  BY  GEORGE  WHARTON  JAMES. 

That  Eastern  teaehers  and  their  friends  who  at- 
tend the  Xational  Educational  Association  in  San 
Francisco  in  July  may  come  thoroughly  in  touch 
witn  all  of  California's  resorts  and  points  of  inter- 
est, the  Southern  Pacific  Company  has  arranged 
with  George  Wharton  James  to  give  a  course  of 
lectures  in  the  r"alace  Hotel  ticket  office.  These 
lectures  are  open  to  all  interested  teachers  and 
their  friends,  and  are  being  given  nightly  so  that 
by  the  time  the  Eastern  teachers  arrive,  those  here 
will  be  in  a  position  to  give  their  Eastern  friends 
information  as  to  the  most  desirable  places  to 
spend  their  time.  The  Southern  Pacific  Company 
could  not  have  -lound  a  person  better  fitted  to  do 
this  work  than  Mr.  James,  he  having  spent  many 
years  in  study  along  these  lines.

LECTURES  ON  AUTHORSHIP. 
W.  C.  Morrow,  the  person  to  whom  so  many  Cali- 
fornia writers  are  indebted  for  the  inspiration  and 
guidance  in  their  literary  careers,  is  giving  a 
course  of  lectures  in  San  Francisco  at  the  present 
time  under  the  auspices  of  the  Pacific  Coast 
Women's  Press  Association,  on  "Authorship." 
When  this  course  is  completed  another  has  been  ar- 
ranged for  in  Berkeley  during  the  university  sum 
mer  session.  These  lectures  are  a  rare  treat, 
whether  one  is  aspiring  to  write  or  not.  The  audi- 
ence is  made  to  realize  that  life's  opportunities  are 
great  in  number  and  all  that  is  needed  is  to  take 
advantage  of  them  while  we  may. 


ANOTHER  OF  SAN  JOSE'S  POETS. 
Some  time  ago  Henry  Meade  Bland  promised  his 
many  friends  a  book  of  poems,  entitled,  "Sierran 
Pan  and  Other  Poems."  The  writer  of  such  a  bit 
of  verse  as  "On  the  Life-Trail"  certainly  has 
another  treat  in  store  for  us. 


EARLY    CALIFORNIA    LITERATURE. 

Miss  Ina  Coolbrith,  California's  sweet  singer,  and 
author  of  "Songs  of  the  Golden  Gate."  is  plan- 
ning to  give  lectures,  during  the  fall,  dealing  with 
literature  iu  the  early  days  of  the  Overland 
Monthly.  Miss  uoolbrith  is  about  the  only  one  who 
remains  to  tell  the  story  and  to  hear  it  will  be  a 
treat  no  one  can  afford  to  miss.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


June,    1911 


AT1VE  SONS  TO  HAVE  FINEST 
FRATERNAL  BUILDING  IN  STATI 


(Prepared  for  The  Grizzly  Bear  by  P.  G.  P.  CHARLES   M.    BEL-SHA.*, 
Committee,  N.  S.  G.  W.  Hall  Association.) 


^iiairman  Ways   and   Means 


LL  OF  THE  STEEL  WORK  IN  THE 
Native  Son  Building  in  San  Fran- 
cisco has  now  been  erected  by  the 
Pacitic  Rolling  Mills,  and  one  can 
have  some  idea  of  how  the  building 
is  going  to  look  when  completed. 
The  cut  here  shown  oortrays  the 
building  much  better  than  I  can  tell 
about  it.  I  am  also  pleased  to  re- 
port that  stock  subscriptions  and 
payments  thereon  are  reaching  the 
secret.-irv  's  oilice  very  satisfactorily. 
From  March  1st  until' May  12th,  $7,620  worth  of 
new  subscriptions  have  been  received,  making  the 
total  subscriptions  to  date,  $191, S48.  From  March 
1st  to  May  12th,  $42,06S  has  been  paid  on  account 
of  subscriptions,  making  the  total  stock  payments  to 
date,  $109,623.  The  following  contracts  have  been 
let: 

Foundation    $  7,625 

Steel    52,33o 

Fire    proofing    So,0U0 

Terra  Cotta 5,085 


The  par  value  of  the  stock  is  now  $8,  at  which 
it  is  sold,  but  when  tne  earnings  from  the  build- 
ing return  to  the  stockholders  10  per  cent  on  their 
investment,  the  price  of  stock  will,  no  doubt,  go  to 
$10  per  share. 

There  can  be  no  possible  loss  to  anyone  making 
an  investment  in  this  stock.  The  real  estate  hold- 
ing of  the  Association  will   continually  increase   in 


Making  a  total  of $100,045 

o~  contracts  let  to  date.  Within  the  next  sixty 
days  at  is  expected  that  the  remaining  contracts  for 
the  finishing  of  the  building  will  have  been  signed 
up,  and  work  will  be  pushed  forward  until  the 
handsome  edifice  is  ready  for  occupancv. 

The  total  estimated  cost  of  erecting  and  furnish- 
ing the  building  is.  approximately,  $235,000,  and  we 
only  lack  about  $40,000  of  that  amount,  which  we 
hope  and  expect  will  be  subscribed  by  the  loyal 
members  of  the  Order  before  the  building  is  turned 
over  to  tenants.  "When  the  Board  of  Directors  of 
the  Hall  Associnti  m  disc-uwsed  ways  and  moans  for 
the  erection  of  the  building,  it  was  their  desire  to 
have  the  building  entirely  paid  for  on  completion, 
in  order  that  the  stockholders  might  receive  divi- 
dends on  their  stock  within  the  first  year 

No  fraternal  society  has  erected  a  building  in 
San  Francisco  without  a  large  bonded  indebted- 
ness and,  as  it  is  the  aim  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West  to  lead  all  fraternal  societies  in 
•  all  things,  it  is  tne  special  desire  of  the  Directors 
of  the  Hall  Association  to  lead  in  tin-  particular. 
There  is  still  an  overwhelming  majority  of  the 
members  of  the  Order  who  have  not  taken  Hall 
Association  stock,  and  an  appeal  is  now  made  to 
those  members  to  assist  in  the  erection  of  a  beauti- 
ful monument  to  the  Order  in  the  metropolis  of  our 
beloved  State,  rirothers  are  not  asked  to  make  a 
donation — they  are  asked  to  make  an  investment  in 
a  business  proposition  which  will  pay  them  at  least 
5  per  cent  interest  on  their  money  witn  the  building 
half  occupied,  and  when  the  building  is  fully  occu- 
pied, as  we  expect  that  it  will  be  before  the  end 
of  1912,  the  proposition  will  probably  pay  10  per 
cent.

value,  and  those  who  subscribe  for  a  small  number 
of  shares  and  desire  at  any  future  time  to  dispose  of 
tucir  holaings  will  find  a  ready  market  for  them 
among  the  several  Parlors  of  San  Francisco  and, 
in  all  probability,  at  a  price  in  excess  of  the  par 
value  of  the  stock. 

Therefore,  I  once  more  appeal   to  those  brothers 
of  the  Order  who  have  not  yet  taken  shares,  to  do 


ADOLPH  EBERHART,  Secretary

so  at  their  earliest  convenience.  Surely  there  is  no 
member  of  the  Order  -who  cannot  afford  to  take  at 
least  one  share,  and  there  are  many  who  can  take 
more.  Remember  that  every  little  bit  helps,  and 
it  is  our  duty  as  Native  Sons  to  assist  in  the 
erection  of  this  beautiful  building. 

Fill  out  the  subscription  blank  which  appears 
below,  AT  ONCE,  and  return  it  to  Brother  Adolpn 
Lberhart,  1S3  Larl  street,  San  Francisco,  California, 
Secretary  of  the  Association. 

Again,  let  me  say  to  you,  that  every  little  bit 
helps  and  that  the  efforts  of  all  will  lighten  the 
burden. 


It  is  natural  that  an  expectant  who  has  been  cut 
off  by  a  will  should  suffer  from  a  lack  of  will  power.

Amusing  and  Pathetic  Tales. 

M!any  amusing  and  patnetic  tales  may  he  told  of 
these  thirty-five  children  who,  when  homes  and  lo"v 
ing  arms  are  opened  to  them,  gaze  in  wonderment 
at  all  the  kindnesses  heretofore  unknown  to  them. 
In  the  institutions  thej  arc  given  food,  clothes,  ■> 
phu-e  to  sleep  and  as  much  attention  as  can  be  ex- 
pected whcrn  there  are  hundreds  claiming  the  atten- 
tion of  the  nurses  Those  who  have  nol  seen  condi- 
tions as  they  exist,  can  scarcely  realize  that  there

Little  Jessie  went  to  the  home  of  a  maiden 
lady  who  owned  a  magnificent  car.  When  the  little 
girl  ha«l  been  received  with  open  arms  by  this  ten- 
der-hearted woman,  Jessie's  pleasure  was  almosl 
immediately  considered,  and  as  a  result,  this  fine 
large  cat  was  brought  in.  Much  to  t.ie  Surprise  of 
ail  present,  Jessie's  face  immediately  showed  that 
she  was  much  frightened;  indeed,  she  was  terror- 
stricken,  and  tli ere  seemed  to  be  in>  chair  in  the 
room  large  enough  to  bide  her.  '1  his  same  thing 
happened  in  the  case  of  a  little  boy  of  three  years. 
Cats  and  dugs  were  unknown  to  him,  and  his 
frightened  ciies  could  be  heard  for  a  block-  nothing 
seemed  to  -please  him  in  Ins  new  home,  until  the 
gramophone  was  tried  for  his  be-iefit.  At  once  the 
sin  ilcs  came  through  the  I  "a vs.  and  in  a  few  mo 
merits  he  was  lea-ling  the  big  bulldog,  the  angora 
cat  and  the  nigger  bank''  up  to  the  horn  to  show 
them   where   the  music  came   from. 

Han dd  was  very  fond  of  milk,  and  in  the  city 
had  seen  the  milkman  take  the  bottles  from  his 
wagon  on  many  occasions.  The  first  night  ne  spent 
at    his    new    home    he    watched    through    the    picket 


fence  t  he  men  mil1  ing  I  he  eoi         He  fo1  lowed 

t«    In    I ae,  where  the}    brought   the  pailr  ot   fresh 

w a i  in    milk.      lie    refused    to    drink    any,    howi     ei 
Baying,  "  None  of  that   for  me;  I  s;i  y    where  it  came 
from.    Ours  is  all  right;  il  comes  off  a  wagon. " 
Luc i  mla  is  our  ebony  baby,  three  years  old    b 
and  good  looking,  with  her  haiT  done  up  in  six  little 
k  in k  \    ina id-,   sewed    with    white   thread.     She   was 
the  siar  attraction  on  board  the  Main  wh   n  she  was 
taken  to  her  new  liome.     She  is  very  dark,  in   fact, 

SO    dark    that    many    colored    folks    ha  I    looked    at     her 

and  burned  awaj  saying,  ''She's  too  black,  we  wish 
for  lighl  colored  children.  Little  Kathleen  was  a 
blue -eyed  darling,  i  hree  months  old  when  she  took 
her  three-hundred- mile  journey   to   the   home   where 

two   i pie  waited  anxiously   for  her.     A   beautiful 

basket,  dainty  in  its  baby  blue  ribbons  and  snowy 
lace  was  brought  out  and  i he  little  treasure  placed 
iii  it  to  see  if  she'd  lo.de  jusi  as  they  had  pictured 
her.  Absolute  satisfaction  was  the  result,  and  today 
the  adoption  papers  are  being  prepared.  Winnie,  a 
beautiful  dark  eyed  girl,  six  years  old,  whose  picture 
appears  in  The  Grizzly  Bear,  is  making  i ther  h 

ideal.        Her    sweet     childish     expressions,     her     lovely 

disposition  and  her  appreciation  of  the  devotion 
showered  upon  her  by  her  new  mot  her  and  father 
are  all   evidences  of  the  beautiful   character  which 

is    bound     to    develop    under    such     conditions    as    are 

found   in  this  refined  home. 

Little  Tommy,  a  Idue  eyed  t  hree  year  old  boy,  full 
of   life   and    aide    to    ask    more   questions    in    a    minute 

than  a  trained   lawyer  in  an   hour,  created  a   greal 

sensation    in   Sunday-sel 1    the    first    time    his    new 

mother  took  him  there.  Tommy  didn't  like  the 
looks  of  things  in  general,  and  immediately  his  wails 
filled  the  cnurch.     Betwen  sobs  he  made  every  one 

present  hear  the  following:  ''I  hate  this  old  place 
and  I  would  rather  go  to  a  moving  picture  show." 
lie  made  1  kings  so  lively  for  his  new  mother  and 
the  little  boy  to  whom  he  was  to  be  a  companion, 
that  the  poor  woman  was  worn  out  trying  to  calm 
him,  even  a  little,  and  he  had  to  be  taken  home,  and 
he  finally  came  bach  to  us.  There  isn't  a  more  lov- 
able, affectionate  little  man  in  the  world  than  Tommy, 
and  when  I  took  him  away  he  threw  his  arms 
around  my  neck  and  murmured:  ''1  like  you  'way 
up  to  the  sky,  and  more  as  any.''  T  felt  that  it  was 
just  Ins  hungry  little  heart  that  needed  attention.  A 
few  days  later  I  took  him  to  a  beautiful  home  in 
Southern  California,  where  there  is  a  lovely  little 
girl  just  his  age.  1  told  him  during  the  journey  that 
lie  was  going  to  his  little  sister,  and  that  he  must 
be  very  glad  to  see  her.  He  was  given  two  beautiful 
pink  rosos  by  a  member  of  the  Native  Daughters' 
committee  after  reaching  the  town,  and  he  imme- 
diately said.  ''This  one  is  tor  my  little  sister.1'  As 
we  n eared  his  new  home,  a  dainty  little  fairy,  a 
veritable  dream  in  pink,  came  tripping  down  the 
sidewalk  to  meet  us.  Tommy  was  told  that  she  was 
Sister  Dorothy.  He  immediately  ran  to  her,  giving 
her  the  pink  rose  and  along  with  it  a  most  affection 
ate  caress,  which  was  returned  by  this  little  girl 
who  had  been  wanting  for  a  playmate  so  long.  When 
we  reached  the  gate  there  were  tears  in  the  mother's 
eyes.  She  had  hoped  that  Tommy  would  be  affec- 
tionate,  and  this  little  exhibition  of  it  was  more  than 
she   dared    hope   for. 

Little  David's  greatest  ambition  was  to  go  some 
plaee  wheer  he  could  pick  wild  flowers.  During  his 
long  journey  to  Northern  California,  every  time  he 
saw  a  flower  from  the  ear  window,  he  would  say, 
''Oh,  look  at  the  buttercups,  auntie;  can't  1  get 
out  and  get  some.'"  When  the  train  reached 
Xiles  the  conductor,  who  had  heard  his  wish,  gath- 
ered a  handful  of  poppies  for  him.  David  was 
happy  at  once,  anu  showed  his  love  for  these  < 'ali- 
form;! Uossoins  by  holding  them  tightly  in  his  lit- 
tle  hand    all    day.      His   home   was   not    reached    till 


-  30  o  clock  al   night .  and  i  he  lasl    I    law  of  this  lil

these    i It u. us   that    we    have    become    known    and 

most  of  our  applications  have  come.  And  especially 
do  we  thank  the  railroads  for  free  transportation 
over  the  entire  state.  Without  this  valuable  as- 
sistance, the  accomplishment  of  effecl  ive  work 
would  be  quite  impossible.  The  following  rail waj 
companies  have  each  been  kind  enough  to  issue  an 
annual  pass  to  the  secretary:  Southern  Pacific, 
Santa  l-'e,  Western  Pacific,  Northwestern  Pacific, 
Amador  Central,  Nevada  County  Narrow  Gauge  and 
Northern  Electric.  The  Pacific  Teh-phone  and  Tel 
egraph  Company  show  ed  their  liberal  spirit  by  giving 
us  a  phone  at   half  rate,  and  Mr.  Scott,  the  manager, 

made  a    liberal    personal    donation.       K\    \[:imo    .hunos 

D.    Phelan,    who    is   a    prominent    Native    Son    and 

anxious  to  assist  the  children *s  cause,  made  a  dona 

t  ion     of     $36     for     the     year,     which     means     a     large 

item  toward  reducing  office  rent. 

To  all  Parlors  that  contributed  so  liberally  and 
willingly  to  the  fund,  and  to  t  hose  whose  commit- 
tees have  been  so  active  in  finding  homes  and 
eventually  placing  children,  the  Central  Commit- 
tee is  indeed  grateful.  Wherever  Parlors  have 
been  given  supervision  of  children,  splendid  results 
have  been  obtained,  The  local  cum  nut  tees  have 
made  monthly  visits  to  the  children  and  the  reports 
<it'  such  visits  are  filed  with  the  Central  Committee. 
Our  system  of  supervision  is  conceded,  by  those  who 
have  had  years  of  experience,  the  finest  ever  inaugu- 
rated, for  the  watchful  eyes  of  the  local  commit- 
tee are  ever  upon  these  cases  until  the  children  are 

adopted.        from     t  hose     1  'arlors     which,     for     various 

reasons,  have  not  assisted  financially  or  otherwise, 
we  ask  co-operation  for  the  coming  year.  A  grander 
ami  nobler  work  was  never  undertaken  by  the  Na- 
tive Si. ns  and  Native  Daughters.  Banded  together 
as  they  are  for  the  purpose  of  aiding,  through  organ- 
ized effort,  everything  which  tends  to  the  better 
nient  of  our  State  and  our  people,  we  cannot  do 
better  than  to  oegin  with  our  children. 

We  uesire  to  thank  all  those  who,  by  their  kind 
words  and  helpful  cooperation,  have  aided  us  so

tural  materials  are  reyjresented  by  an  annual  value 
of  not  less  than  $15,000,000  on  the  present  basis  of

of    California, 


HE  RECEIPT  OF  THOUSANDS  OF 
letters  at  the  State  Mining  Bureau 
from  producers  of  minerals  in  Cali- 
fornia, in  the  past  few  weeks,  in  re- 
lation to  the  values  of  their  outputs 
in  1910,  makes  it  seem  probable  that 
the  aggregate  of  production  for  1910 
will  be  found  to  have  been  $90,000,- 
000  at  least,  and  that  the  returns 
for  the  present  year  will  reach  the 
aggregate  of  $100,000,000.  Tnese 
figures  mark  the  present  value  of  the 
mineral  industry  of  the  State,  and  also  the  advance- 
ment of  its  importance  in  a  marked  degree.  -The 
returns  for  the  year  1909  showed  that  the  previous 
record  of  any  earlier  year  had  been  surpassed — 
that  of  1S52  for  instance,  when  gold  reached  its 
high-water  mark  of  $81,294,700.  In  fact,  1909  beat 
that  record  by  quite  a  margin,  the  total  being 
$S2.972,209.  or  a  lead  of  all  previous  records  by 
$1,700,000,  in  round  figures. 

Producers  of  structural  materials  are  going  to 
make  up  large  figures  of  actual  production  for  1910 
and,  undoubtedly,  much  larger  ones  for  1911.  One 
concern  has  made  a  showing  already  of  nearly 
$500,000  for  1910.  The  rapid  advance  of  petroleum 
and  the  steady,  if  less  rapid,  advance  due  to  gold 
dredging,  together  with  the  improvement  in  the 
structural  materials  industries,  may  be  relied  upon 
to  give  the  mineral  showing  a  continually  increas- 
ing prominence  and  importance.  The  expectations 
for  the  year  1910,  outside  of  the  returns  for  the 
year  actually  received  to  date,  are  based  on  the 
progress  made  in  the  past  five  years  and  upon  a 
general  knowledge  of  the  general  conditions  that 
are  attending  the  many  branches  that  report  their 
outputs  and  the  values  thereof  to  the  Bureau. 

In  five  years  the  annual  production  of  petroleum 
has  grown  from  $9,007,820  to  $32,398,187.  Gold 
has  advanced  from  $19,197,043  to  $20,237,570.  Mac- 
adam production  in  1909  reached  $1,636,625.  Cop- 
per amounted  in  value  to  $8,478,142,  as  against 
$2,650,605  in  1905.  The  summary  of  totals  for  all 
products  for  five  years  makes  up  a  great  exhibit, 
as  follows:  1905!  $43,069,227;  1906,  $46,776,085; 
1907,  $55,697,949;  1908,  $66,363,190;  1909,  $S2;972,- 
209.  The  advance  in  five  years,  from  1905  to  1909, 
was  $39,909,209,  or  practically  $S,000,000  a  year  im- 
provement. This  growth  is  now  at  a  much  greater 
rate  than  the  average  figures  would  indicate,  being 
an  advance  of  more  than  $16,000,000  a  year,  com- 
paring 190S  with  1909. 


installed.  It  is  reported  that  a  large  plant  is  soon 
to  be  established  in  Kern  County,  where  it  is  ex- 
pected to  handle  4,000.000  cubic  feet  of  gas  daily, 
which  is  expected  to  yield  S000  gallons  of  gasoline 
per  day. 


California's  Wonderful  Allied  Mineral  Products. 

At  the  entrance  to  the  museum  of  the  California 
State  Mining  Bureau,  in  the  Ferry  Building  at  the 
foot  of  Market  street.  San  Francisco,  the  beginning 
of  the  institution  of  a  striking  show  of  California 
structural  materials  is  now  in  evidence.  Visitors  to 
the  museum  now  pass  under  an  arched  way  which 
carries  a  reproduction  of  the  seal  of  the  State  of 
California  in  the  center.  This  device  is  flanked  on 
one  side  by  a  scene  representative  of  mining  and  on 
the  other  side  by  a  conventional  design  suggesting 
construction.  The  arch  is  composed  of  ornamental 
terra  cotta.  in  finely  contrasted  colors,  and  of  Cali- 
fornia sandstone.  The  general  effect  is  pleasing. 
Below  the  designs  is  an  inscription — "State  Mining 
and  Structural  Materials." 

Just  within  the  arch  is  a  very  large  space,  entirely 
apart  from  the  great  room  in  which  the  specimens 
of  ores,  etc.,  have  been  stored  as  museum  exhibits 
for  years,  to  the  number  of  some  thousands,  embrac- 
ing gold,  silver,  gems,  copper,  lead  ores,  crystals  and 
scores  of  other  metallic  substances.  In  the  space 
now  added  to  the  museum,  but  in  a  separate  room, 
will  be  placed,  by  the  producers  of  California  strue- 
turals,  a  splendid  assortment  of  building  stones, 
terra  cotta,  bricks  and  all  other  minerals  that  are 
used  in  construction  work  in  this  State,  and  all  the 
samples  will  represent  native  productions.  To  make 
up  this  exhibit,  there  has  been  general  co-operation 
on  the  part  of  the  producers.  The  result  will  be  an 
exhibit  along  industrial  lines  that  will  at  once 
please,  surprise  and  educate.  The  conjunction  of 
strictly  mining  exhibits  and  those  representative  of 
quarries,  clay  pits,  etc.,  will  impress  any  one  who 
sees  the  show,  of  the  importance  of  the  allied  min- 
eral producers  and  of  the  almost  inexhaustible  quan- 
tities of  products  that  characterize  California. 

Taking  the  mineral  substances  collectively,  they 
represent  an  annual  output  now  little,  if  any  less 
than   $100,000,000   per   annum.      Of  these  the   struc- 


parts  of  California,  just  as  the  exhibits  in  the 
museum,  inlucding  more  than  forty  mineral  sub- 
stances, represent  more  than  fifty  counties.  The 
structural  materials  that  are  annually  produced  in 
large  commercial  quantities  include  the  following, 
with  the  values  of  the  production  of  each  in  a  period 
of  twenty-three  years;  Asphalt,  $9,357,662;  bitu- 
minous rock,  $2,721,099;  cement.  $17,369,254;  bricks, 
$25,229,515;  pottery  clays,  $2,267,978;  granite, 
$10,875,806;  gypsum,  $992,405;  lime  and  limestone, 
$11,552,637;  crushed  rock,  including  rubble,  $12,026,- 
184;  marble,  $1,509,841;  paving  blocks,  $1,895,064; 
glass  sand,  $129,012;  sandstone,  $3,757,044;  slate, 
$653,399. 


Law  Will  Prohibit  Natural  Gas  Waste. 
Governor  Johnson  has  approved  the  act  passed  by 
the  California  Legislature  at  its  recent  session, 
which  provides  a  penalty  for  permitting  the  un- 
necessary waste  of  natural  gas  from  wells.  The 
date  of  approval  was  March  25th,  so  that  the  act  is 
now  in  effect,  and  provides  that  any  person,  firm, 
corporation  or  association  who  willfully  permits  the 


Federal  Officials  Against  California  Producers. 

The  efforts  of  State  Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury 
to  get  high  officials  of  the  Treasury  Department  of 
the  United  States  to  co-operate  with  him  in  showing 
the  discriminations  practiced  by  the  Supervising 
Architect  of  tue  department  against  the  producers  of 
California's  structural  materials,  have  met  with  an 
unexpected,  but  not  less  decidedl}'  positive,  rebuff. 
Letters  have  passed  in  considerable  number  between 
the  State  Mineralogist  and  the  Treasury  De- 
partment, and  recently  the  officials  in  Washington 
declined  to  permit  Aubury  to  inspect  the  plans  and 
specifications  for  public  uuildings  in  California,  in 
the  construction  or  which,  so  he  alleges,  the  discrim- 
inations have  taken  place. 

The  State  Mineralogist  is  still  gathering  material 
for  his  report.  Denied,  by  the  Treasury  Depart- 
ment, access  to  the  evidence  made  through  the 
plans  formulated  by  the  Supervising  Architect,  a 
mass  of  data  has  nevertheless  been  gathered.  Pos- 
sibly the  denials  of  the  right  to  see  public  docu- 
ments in  behalf  of  the  State  of  California  in  this 
matter  may  be  heard  of  in  official  circles  in  Wash- 


Hangtown,    now  Placerville,    in   the   Gold  Days — 1850. 


waste  of  natural  gas  shall  be  deemed  guilty  of  a 
misdemeanor,  ana  upon  conviction  thereof,  shall  be 
punished  by  a  fine  of  not  more  than  one  thousand 
dollars  or  oy  imprisonment  in  the  county  jail  for 
not  more  than  one  year,  or  by  both  such  fine  and 
imprisonment. 

The  necessity  for  a  measure  of  this  kind  arose 
from  the  fact  tnat  at  different  places  in  the  State 
wnere  wells  nave  been  drilled  for  oil  and  other 
purposes,  only  gas  has  been  met  with.  Where  it  has 
been  possible  to  utilize  this  gas  for  domestic  or  other 
purposes,  it  has  been  done,  but  there  are  many  in- 
stances where  the  wells  have  been  abandoned  and 
countless  millions  of  cubic  feet  of  gas  have  been 
allowed  to  go  to  waste  in  the  atmosphere  and  no 
attempts  were  made  to  cap  the  wells.  Some  of  these 
wells  have  been  flowing  for  years.  Demonstrations 
that  gasoline  can  be  profitably  extracted  from  nat- 
ural gas  have  been  made  in  Ohio.  West  Virginia  and 
Pennsylvania,  where  a  number  of  plants  have  been 


ington  before  Aubury  finally  sends  on  his  report, 
which  will  include  particulars  concerning  the 
method  that  has  been  adopted  in  Washington  to 
deprive  him  of  facts  that  would  enable  him  to  make 
his  report  as  complete  as  possible. 


CALIFORNIA'S  GOLD  WEALTH 

GREAT  FACTOR  IN   DEVELOPMENT 

In  a  recent  debate  in  Hydraulic  Parlor  of  Native 
Sons,  at  Nevada  City,  as  to  whether  mining  or  agri- 
culture had  been  the  greater  factor  in  the  State's 
development,  the  judges  decided  in  favor  of  mining. 
Following  is  one  of  the  arguments  set  up  in  behalf 
of  the  estate's  development  through  mining  opera- 
tions, in  which  gold  is  cited  as  the  chief  element  in 
the  building  up  of  California: 

California  has  well  earned  the  name  of  the  Golden 
State,  for  from  her  rich  mines  gold  to  the  value  of 
over  $1,500,000,000  has  been  taken  out,  and  every  ' 
year  she  adds  $17,000,000  to  the  world's  stock  of

gold  from  her  mining  industries.  No  country  has 
produced  more  of  tins  precious  yellow  metal  that 
:■  .  i  work,  and  fight,  and  die  for.  The  great  gold 
bell   of  the  State  Btill    holds   immense  gold    wealth 

I  lint  will  t'ljgngL-  tin'  attention  of  miners  for  years 
and  years  to  eonte.  Long,  long  ago  people  knew 
iliar  gold  was  here,  and  California  was  reported  to 
be  a  country  where  a  great  abundance  of  minerals 
and  precfous  stones  were  found.  "To  the  land  of 
gold,"  was  the  motto  of  all  those  Pioneers  who  en- 
dured every  hardship  to  reach  the  Gold  State. 

Before  going  too  deeply  into  this  question  of 
mining.   I   would  state  that  mining  must   be  classed 

Lei    the    following    heads:      Gold    quartz  'mining; 

silver  quartz  mining;  placer  mining,  and  mining  for 
:ui\  other  metal,  such  as  copper,  petroleum,  mangan- 
ese, lead,  tin  and  a  dozen  others  which  the  State 
M  ineralogist  classes  as  minerals.  To  this  can  be 
added  hydraulic  mining  and  mining  by  use  of  the 
dredger;  also  dritt  mining.  Quicksilver  or  cinnabar 
ran  also  be  classed  :ts  one  of  the  minerals  of  the 
State,  in  a  commercial  way.  to  the  benefit  of  Cali- 
fornia. 

The  great  mother  lode  of  our  State  runs  like  an  un- 
derground  wall  across  Amador.  Calaveras,  Tuolumne 
and  Mariposa  Counties.  It  took  the  gold  to  buy  the 
lumber,  the  iron,  the  water,  the  supplies  that  de- 
veloped the  state.  The  gold  purchased  ships,  and 
was  the  means  of  bringing  in  railroads.  It  was 
gold  that  started  the  banks  and  large  business 
houses  and  built  up  a  gold  standard  which  brought 
other  lines  of  business  into  existence  in  California. 
Therefore,  we  claim  that  minnig  has  done  the  most 
in  a  commercial  way  for  the  upbuilding  of  the  whole 
State.  The  medium  of  exchange  must  be  gold  and 
silver  and  the  treasures  of  the  mines  have  made  I'ali- 
fninia  known  throughout  the  world.  The  gold  har- 
vest  of  mining  has  made  the  State  richer  than  the 
Argonauts  found  it,  for  they  used  the  wealth  to 
build  cities,  to  cultivate  the  farming  lands,  and  to 
plant  orchards  and  vineyards  where  the  mining 
camps  used  to  be. 

Now  and  again  there  comes  out  of  the  dim  past 
something  which  opens  up  an  hitherto  unknown  or 
Forgotten  page  in  history.  Probably  no  one  thing 
has  bad  a  greater  influence  upon  the  progress  and 
expansion  of  our  State,  than  the  discovery  of  gold 
in  California  in  1848,  which  was  followed  by  billions 
of  dollars  in  gold  and  other  mineral  products  being 
added  to  the  world's  store  of  wealth. 

To  have  a  thorough  understanding  of  the  impor- 
tance of  tin-  gold  wealth  of  California  in  the  actual 
development  oi  the  State,  one  must  have  lived  in  the 
gold  days,  ami  been  a  part  of  it.  A  great  empire 
demanded  development;  fertile  valleys  invited  culti- 
vation; and  through  the  discovery  of  gold,  all  indus- 
tries began  to  assort  their  importance. 

In   1854  the  mint   in  San  Francisco  began  coining 

r y  from  gold  dust,  making  five,  ten  and  twenty 

dollar  gold  pieces.  From  that  time,  millions  and 
millions  of  dollars  from  the  mines  have  been 
used  for  mining  purposes  in  building  mills  and  ma- 
chine drills,  for  timber,  electrical  machinery,  and 
modern  appliances  for  extracting  the  precious 
metals,  and  to  develop  other  channels  of  trade  and 
com  merce. 

Coal  must  also  be  classed  as  a  mineral  that  has 
helped  to  build  up  California  in  a  commercial  way, 
and  the  oil  and  petroleum  mining  industries  have 
nut  only  added  to  the  State's  fame  and  wealth,  but 
have  been  the  chief  factors  in  the  groat  strides  made 
in   recenl   years  in  the  State's  commercial  progress.

a  great  encouragement  to  the  officers,  who  have  the

aliouts  of  our  newly-married  .Sam  "Toothsome"

joined  the  benedicts.  The  last  note  from  him,  he

member  who  missed  a  meeting  is  the  brother  from 
"Frosty  Corners/'  also  Trustee  Shafer,  whose  [ires

Parlor  decided  to  give  the  hall  over  to  the  Native 
Daughters  May  Mist,  at  which  time  they  will  have  a 
nickel  dance,  the  event  being  for  the  purpose  of 
raising  funds  for  their  treasury.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


June,    1911 


CONDUCTED    BY    MINNIE   ALICE   BEAUFAIT 


OMMENCEMENT  DAYS!  "—AFTER 
years  of  conscientious  work  for 
some,  so  as  to  finish  with  highest 
honors;  or,  for  others,  just  the  make- 
shift of  study,  using  every  subter- 
fuge to  obtain  that  coveted  bit  of 
parchment  at  the  end — are  what 
many  are  looking  forward  to  in  this 
month  of  June.  For  those  silly  boys 
and  girls  who  have  been  too  much 
taken  up  with  one  another  to  heed 
the  call  of  "The  Halls  of  Learning, 
the  harvest  they  will  reap  in  after  years  will  be  in 
proportion  to  the  sowing  time  of  the  past.  The 
dropped  threads  of  life  may  be  picked  up  and  re- 
adjusted, especially  with  the  young,  but  it  will  be 
much  harder,  and  take  up  too  much  valuable  time, 
than  to  be  careful  not  to  drop  them  at  all,  or  at 
least  no  more  than  one  can  nelp,  for  the  motto,  "Up- 
ward and  onward, ' '  should  be  the  watchward  of 
every  one,  as  this  is  a  world  of  great  opportunities, 
and  though  it  wags  on  without  any  apparent  regard 
for  appearances,  still  it  is  always  and  ever  "the 
survival  of  the  fittest,"  and  those  who  survive  will 
take  pre-eminence  in  all  the  walks  of  life. 

One  more  thought,  before  we  take  up  the  subject 
of  suitable  frocks  for  our  sweet  girl  graduates,  and 
that  is  the  public  tribute  paid  to  motherhood  in 
the  recent  setting  apart  of  one  day  in  the  year  in 
which  to  honor  ' '  mother. "  It  is  always  chiefly 
through  her  you  have 
obtained  the  cher- 
ished desire  of  a 
good  education, 
whether  you  attend 
college  or  stop  at  the 
second  mile-stone, 
namely,  a  hgh  school 
course.  She  is  the 
one  who  n  'ikes  in- 
numerable sacrifices, 
in  order  to  give  the 
girls  and  boys  advan- 
tages an  d  fitting]  y 
equip  them  for  the 
real  battle  of  life.  So 
do  not  forget  to  ren- 
der her  any  little 
kindness  that  will 
tend  to  lighten  the 
burden  of  life,  as 
cheer  fulness,  not 
querulousness,  should 
be  practiced,  when 
the  momentous  ques- 
tion arises  as  to  your 
gown  and  the  other 
necessary  accessories, 
when  on  a  shopping 
tour  with  her  in 
search  of 
Dainty  Lingerie 
Frocks 
in  the  sheer  or  all-  ' 
over  embroidered  fab- 
rics now  displayed. 
White,  of  course,  for 
that  day  of  days 
should  be  chosen,  and 
a  sheer  batiste,  made 
in  the  empire  mode,  with  a  deep  flounce  in  which 
tucks,  and  inserting  of  Val  in  the  two-thread  design, 
and  two  different  kinds  of  embroidery  inserting, 
combine  beautifully.  As  many  as  four  and  five 
kinds  of  lace  are  used  on  one  frock,  in  combination 
with  tucks,  or  Dotn  the  embroidery  and  lace  if  pre- 
ferred. 

In  this  little  batiste  frock,  a  crescent-shaped  me- 
dalion  or  Irish  crochet  was  set  in  the  front  of  the 
waist  and  the  same  design  in  the  back.  A  little 
yoke  and  stock  of  "Val,  with  the  elbow  sleeves  in 
kimono  style  trimmed  with  inserting  of  the  val, 
completed  a  smart  and  dainty  enough  frock  for  the 
most  fastidious  miss.  "Where  the  waist  and  skirt 
join,  about  three  rows  of  lace  or  one  wide  band  of 
embroidery  is  the  usual  mode  for  the  belt. 

If  mother  has  time  and  the  art  of  fine  embroide- 
ing,  she  may  make  a  frock  that  will  be  the  envy  of 
many.  A  cotton  marquisette  is  a  dainty  fabric  and 
quite  inexpensive  as  compared  with  some  other  ma- 
terials, anu  is  used  very  extensively  for  lingerie 
frocks  for  both  misses  and  grown-ups.  It  embroiders 
very  prettily,  when  combined  with  linen  cluny,  made 
in  the  high  waist  line,  with  short  or  three-quarter 


Lingerie  Frock  of  Batiste 
and  Lace

kimono  sleeves,  a  Dutch  or  round  neck,  and  a  wide 
band  of  hand  embroidery  insert  for  the  belt.  The 
skirt  should  be  about  two  yards  wide,  with  just  a 
wide  hem  and  cluster  of  tucks,  a  German  val  insert- 
ing, then  another  cluster  of  tucks,  and  a  scroll  de- 
sign-embroidered above  the  tucks,  reaching  well  up 
on  the  front  gore  of  the  skirt — and  it  is  decidedly 
chic.  too.  i  same  design  should  be  embroidered 

on  the  front  of  the  waist,  or  around  the  low  Dutch 
neck  be^ow  tne  val  inserting  used  to  finish  it,  and 
down  over  the  shoulders  and  sleeves  to  cuff  or  betow 
edge.  ±i  one  prefers,  the  same  design  may  be  car- 
ried out  w.--  the  linen  cluny,  instead  of  the  hand 
embroidery. 

Irish  crochet  lace  may  be  used  in  connection  with 
cluny  or  val,  or  just  alone,  as  one  desires.  The  Prin- 
cess mode  is  very  chic  for  young  girls  in  their 
"teens,"  and  the  panel  effect  may  have  an  embroid- 
ered design  from  the  bust  to  the  knees,  or  medal- 
ions  o±  Irish  crochet  to  form  the  "V"  effect.  So 
many  modes  are  now  displayed,  that  so  long  as  you 
have  them  well  trimmed,  one  cannot  be  out  of  style. 
From  two  to  two  and  one-quarter  yards  around  for 
the  skirts,  is  correct.  A  pretty  "way  to  make 
a  French  lawn  is  in  the  high-waisted  model,  with  a 
lace  belt  and  the  lace  extending  straight  across  the 
bust  and  low  down  on  the  shoulders.  The  skiTt  is 
made  with  the  wide  front  and  back  gores  and  very 
narrow  sides,  trimmed  with  hand  embroidery,  while 
five  rows  of  val  is  inserted  in  the  skirt  all  around, 
with  only  the  lawn  between,  and  a  three-inch  hem 
at  the  bottom.  A  full  pleated  frill  of  narrow  val 
lace  outlines  the  round  neck. 

For  a  Grammar  School  Miss, 
the  frock  should  be  extremely  simple  for  many  rea- 
sons, but  chiefly  because  an  elaborate  one  causes 
envy  and  heartaches  among  her  less  fortunate  class- 
mates; then  too,  it  fosters  a  desire  for  gowns  far 
beyond  her  years,  and  detracts  from  the  real  mean- 
ing of  graduation.  Time  enough  when  the  blushing 
lad  walks  with  her  to  and  from  school  in  the  junior 
and  senior  years  at  High  School — "just  to  carry  her 
books,"  you  know — to  think  of  elaborate  frocks. 
The  rising  generation  certainly  own  this  month  of 
roses,  blue  skies  and  glorious  weather,  and  we  sin- 
cerely hope  their  commencement  days  will  be  full  to 
the  brim  of  unanoyed  joys.  Now  for  miladi  and 
her  gowns  for 

"Afternoon  and  Evening  Wear, 
as  she  was  once  a  tiny  maid,  but  now  requires  a 
deal  of  catering  to  her  many  whims  and  fancies. 
The  wealth  of  dainty  shades  and  materials  seem  to 
increase,  if  it  be  possible,  while  with  every  new 
model  evolved  at  our  fashion  centers,  we  find  an 
ideal  gown  with  some  chic  idea  embroidered  in  it. 
An  allover  embroidery  was  made  into  a  full  gown, 
with  Oriental  lace  inserting  and  bands  edged  with 
meclin  lace,  while  the  hem  was  a  band  of  wide 
Oriental  lace  with  the  meclin  edging  it.  The  skirt 
was  made  tunic  style  of  the  allover,  with  a  wide 
pink  satin  riboon  drawn  under  the  Oriental  lace 
that  finished  the  tunic,  which  only  extended  half- 
way down  the  skirt.  The  ribbon  was  tied  into  a 
large  bow  with  short  ends  at  the  left  side.  The  belt 
was  a  folded  pink  ribbon  with  bow  at  left  side  also. 
Narrow  pink  ribbon  run  through  lace  over  the 
shoulders  and  to  the  bottom  of  the  elbow  kimono 
sleeves,  gave  it  a  distinctive  "air."  The  high  waist 
line  and  low  Dutch  neck  were  other  features  to  add 
to  its  attractiveness. 

India  lawn,  cotton  voils,  silk  voils  and  cotton 
marquisettes,  with  chiffon  and  Brussels  net,  are  all 
sheer  materials  that  make  up  beautifully  over  pas- 
tel shades.  Coral  is  the  all-prevailing  shade  now, 
and  under  black  marquisette  gives  a  baffling  appear- 
ance that  completely  changes  the  effect. 

A  black  and  white  small  checked  marquisette  was 
draped  in  tunic  style  over  coral  messaline,  with  a 
deep  black  messaline  band  around  the  bottom  of  the 
skirt.  It  would  be  impossible  to  describe  the  effect 
such  a  combination  gives,  as  one  has  no  idea  of  the 
exact  color  until  the  marquisette  is  raised  from  off 
the  coral.  This  gown  was  trimmed  around  the  tunic 
with  an  Indian  design  of  white  on  fillet  net.  The 
same,  only  in  a  narrower  band,  extended  from  the 
waist  line  over  the  right  shoulder  and  down  to 
waist  line  at  the  back.  The  left  side  was  of  folds 
of  the  black  and  coral  messaline,  and  the  effect  was 
delightfully  chie,  as  the  Indian  band  extended  ever 
so  little  over  the  folds  at  the  front  and  back,  giving 
the  old-style  "kerchief"  idea  of  our  grandmother's 
time,  a  heavy  black  silk  coral  outlined  the  waist, 
hanging  at  the  leit  side  in  long  ends,  which  were

knotted  at  intervals  with  immense  knotted  ends. 
The  neck  of  course  was  a  * '  V "  yoke  of  French 
lace,  with  coral  piping  to  outline  it,  and  finish  the 
higu  stock  of  lace.  Tiny  Frencn  bows  of  coral 
messaline,  almost  resembling  minute  military  bows 
of    coral,    were    placed    on    the    front    of    the    deep

the  street  or  one-piece  gowns  for  the  house,  at  the 
beach,  or  even  on  tin1  street.  Novelty  crash  made 
into  a  two-piece  suit,  with  white  cuffs  and  collar. 
and  three  large  buttons  to  close  the  short  jacket,  and 
a  plain  half  pleated  skirt,  was  extremely  stylish. 
These  linen  suits  come  in  oyster  white,  the  natural 
colors,  »  op. Mil i, 'i Lion d due,  tans,  lavender,  pink  and 
copper.  Some  are  hand  embroidered,  While  others 
have  the  deep  turn  back  cuffs  of  white  and  the  deep 
sailor  or  round  collar,  also  in  white  linen.  In  the 
one-piece  linens,  the  left-side  closing;  is  very  smart 
combined  with  large  white  pearl  buttons,  some  con- 
trasting shade  or  white,  either  plain  or  dotted,  for 
the  wide  tollar  and  turn  back  cuffs.  A  new  feature 
of  these  gowns  is  the  black  patent  leather  belt  run 
through  narrow  straps  at  the  waist  line.  Cadet- 
blue,  obi  rose  and  pink  are  made  up  with  Indian 
passementerie;  black  bands  and  buttons,  either  with 
the  left  side  (dosing  in  front  or  the  regulation  back. 
and  there  you  are,  with  as  nifty  a  gown  as  you  could 
wish  for  in  the  linen.  Many  of  the  collars  and  cuffs 
are  hand  embroidered,  so  gel  busy,  girls,  and  show 
each  other  what  you  can  do  in  that  line.  The  skirts 
are  still  very  narrow,  yet  tiny  pleated  effects  are 
seen  just  the  saute.  Another  pretty  way  to  trim 
these  linen  gowns,  is  the  new  machine  cording. 
F,\  ery   machine   is   fit  fed   with   such  an   attachment, 

SO  one  may  manage  that    very    easily. 

In  the  Line  of  Hats, 
for  both  misses  ami  women,  we  find  a  groat  variety 
to  rii.ii.se  from,  so  just  a  few  hints  to  enable 
mother  to  help  girlie  with  one  suitable  to  go  with 
that  sweet  frock:  For  a  dainty  little  hat,  double 
pirn  I  ril  st M  t  i  rench  .val  on  a  leghorn  crown,  with 
a  roll  or  twisl  of  .oral  velvet,  and  a  little  French 
posj  at  the  left  side.  Another  chic  lingerie  hat  is 
in  the  "Charlotte  '  orday"  style,  wide  French  lace 
combined  with  some  sheer  soft  fluted  braid  for  the 
crown,  and  a  wreath  of  pale  pink  lilies-of-the-valley 
drooping  down  over  the  lace,  and  a  soft,  pink  messa- 
line bow  at  the  side.  These  hats  set  down  well  over 
the  face,  as  the  shirred  or  pleated  lace  is  prettier 
that  way. 

For  the  women,  there  are  big  hats  and  little  hats, 
high  and  low  crowns,  soft  and  stiff  braids  and 
straws;  in  fact,  an  endless  variety  to  choose  from. 
A  new  auto  bonnet  has  now  come  to  town,  and  every 
joy-rider  should  certainly  obtain  one.  as  for  real 
service  combined  with  style,  yon  have  it  here,  and 
to  distinguish  it  from  the  others,  it' is  called  "Re- 
tanio. ' '  A  nice  feature  of  this  bonnet,  which  is 
made  of  natural  linen  crash  lined  with  any  shade 
one  desires — and  that  goes  well  with  the  complexion 
—is  the  auto-veil,  that  is  strapped  on  all  around 
the  top  when  not  needed  and  can  be  unstrapped 
with  very  little  trouble  when  in  use.  It  somewhat 
resembles  a  boon,  yet  is  so  soft  and  chic  looking, 
that   its  popularity  will  soon  be  established.

Fortuna  Entertains  Royally. 
Fortuna — Fortuna  PaTlor,  No.  218,  entertained  its 
members  and  a  few  invited  guests  most  .  royally, 
April  IStb.  at  a  bountiful  repast,  after  the  business 
meeting  of  the  Parlor.  H.  P.  Monroe  made  the  wel- 
coming address,  and  in  the  course  of  his  remarks, 
explained  impressively  and  lucidly  how  the  Order 
had  its  birth  and  what  its  real  aims  and  purposes 
are,  one  noble  object  being  the  finding  of  homes  for 
orphaned  children  of  whatever  parental  religion  or 
nationality.  C.  W.  Seffens  had  arranged  an  inter- 
esting program,  which  started  off  with  a  boxing 
match  between  Warren  Innes  and  Dr.  W.  S.  O'Con- 
nor. Then  followed,  in  order:  Song.  C.  W.  Seffens; 
step  dance,  Harold  Whitlow;  monolgue,  John  Gaar- 
den;  instrumental  music.  Verne  Moore  and  Winn 
and  Ed  Baxter;  recitation,  F.  O.  Simmons  (anient 
the  destruction  of  San  Francisco,  this  being  the  fifth 
anniversary  of  the  great  earthquake  and  fire) ;  step 
dance,  Lora  Thompson ;  song,  Steve  W.  Seotton ; 
song,  by  L.  C.  Morgan.  Another  set-to  between  the 
boxers  concluded  the  program. 


a  result,  at  every  meeting  of  the  Parlor  new  mem- 
bers are  being  enrolled,  the  total  membership  now 
reaching  above  the  seventy  mark.  At  the  meeting 
of  April  26th,  two  candidates  were  initiated,  follow- 
ing which  cards  were  enjoyed,  and  refreshments 
served.  The  Parlor  was  organized  with  thirty-one 
charter  members. 


Observes  Memorial  Day. 
Lincoln — Silver  Star  Parlor,  No.  63.  held  memorial 
services.  May  2Sth,  in  accordance  with  the  custom 
established  by  the  Grand  Parlor  whereby  each  PaT- 
lor in  the  Order  is  directed  to  hold  services  each 
year  in  memory  of  the  departed.  The  oration  was 
delivered  by  P.  a.  Smith  of  Auburn.  At  the  con- 
clusion of  the  exercises,  the  members  of  the  Parlor 
proceeded  to  the  cemeteries  and  decorated  the 
graves  not  only  of  those  Native  Sons  who  have 
gone  before,  but  as  well  the  Pioneers. 


Twenty-fourth  Annual  Ball. 
San  Francisco — Niantic  Parlor.  No.  105,  held  its 
twenty-fourth  annual  ball  at  Golden  Gate  Com- 
mandery  Hall.  May  27th,  and  the  affair  was  a  com- 
plete success  in  every  particular.  Joseph  F.  Edel- 
mann  was  floor  manager,  and  Dr.  E.  P.  Driscoll  was 
at  the  nead  of  the  arrangements  committee.

comedy,-  was  presented  by  the  members  of  Alder 
Glenn  Parlor,  No.  .200,  April  22nd,  to  a  packed 
house,  and  the  evening's  receipts  amounted  to  $185. 
As  heretofore  menitioned,  the  entertainment  was 
given  toward  raising  funds  with  which  to  cect 
suitable  monuments  over  the  graves  of  two  historic 
Pioneers — "Grandma"  Foster  and  Britton  Gieen- 
wcod — who  lie  buried  in  the  Fort  Bragg  cemetery. 
Following  the  comedy,  the  floor  was  cleared  and

were  made,  Grand  Trustee  Davis  speaking  on  the 
Order's  progress  and  prosperity.  Following  the

Dance  Nearly  Canceled  by  Bear. 
(From  tne  Red  Bluff  News.  April  27th.) 
The  members  of  Iron  Canyon  Parlor,  No.  254,  N.  S. 
G.  W.,  who  are  to  give  a  dance  at  the  opera  house 
pavilion  Friday  evening,  came  desperately  near  hav- 
ing their  arrangements  called  off  yesterday  by  a 
serious  tragedy  in  their  ranks.  The  boys  have  a 
real  live  bear  which  they  propose  to  introduce  at 
the  dance  as  a  specimen  of  animal  life  in  Califor- 
nia. The  ferocious  beast  is  being  trained  to  waltz 
and  drink  punch  by  Ed  Lennon,  Tom  Walton  and 
Jim  Matlock.  Yesterday,  while  being  put  through 
his  paces  in  the  alley  back  of  the  shop,  Lennon,  who 
was  beating  the  tom-tom,  unwittingly  struck  a  dis- 
cord. This  caused  bruin  to  stumble  and  get  his  feet 
tangled,  and  so  enraged  him  that  Matlock,  who  was 
waltzing  with  him  at  the  time,  was  given  a  hug  that 
made  his  ribs  pop,  and  was  then  swiped  across  the 
side  of  the  head  with  a  paw  that  was  heavy  enough 
to  bowl  him  over  in  the  dirt  and  end  the  lesson. 
j_<ennon  dropped  his  orchestra  and  beat  a  hasty 
retreat  to  his  office,  while  Walton  shinned  up  a  tele- 
graph pole,  from  which  he  was  rescued  au  hour 
later  by  Alva  Dennis,  who  happened  to  be  looking 
for  an  alleged  scissors  grinder  in  that  neighborhood. 
The  bear  was  coaxed  back  into  his  quarters,  and  is 
said  to  be  sufficiently  pacified  to  appear  at  the  ball 
tomorrow  evening,  although  he  will  probably  have 
trouble  getting  a  partner  to  waltz  with  him.  But 
he  will  positively  be  at  the  dance. 


To  Hold  Annual  Picnic 
San    Francisco — The   annual    picnic   of   San   Fran 
ciseo   Parlor,  No.  49.  will  be  held  on  June  25th 
Fembrook  Park,  Niles  Canyon.

Big  Class  in  Prospect. 
Fnlsom — Granite  Parlor,  No.  83.  is  making  elab- 
orate preparations  for  its  meeting  of  June  6th,  as 
«m  that  occasion  a  class  of  twenty-five  candidates 
will  be  taken  into  the  fold.  It  is  expected  that  this 
will  be  a  record-breading  meeting  of  the  Parlor  in 
point  of  attendance,  and  plans  are  well  under  way 
to  provide  such  entertainment  as  will  make  every 
member  more  than  glad  that  he  attended. 


Twenty-eighth  Anniversary  Celebrated. 
San  Jose — San  Jose  Parlor,  No.  22,  celebrated  the 
twenty-eighth  anniversary  of  its  institution.  May 
3rd,  with  a  dancing  party,  to  which  the  Native 
Daughters  were  especially  invited.  The  hall  was 
tastefully  decorated  in  potted  plants  and  the  colors 
of  the  Order,  a  main  feature  of  which  was  long 
streamers  festooned  from  the  ceiling,  from  which 
were  suspended  lanterns.  There  was  a  large  at- 
tendance, and  the  Parlor's  hospitality  was  without 
bounds.  The  committee  in  charge  was  composed  of 
D.  P.  Narvaez,  George  Geoffrey,  J.  D.  Drew,  J.  W. 
Ganong  and  Charles  Roberts. 


Entertains  Native  Daughters. 
Long  Beach — On  May  9th,  Grizzly  Bear  Parlor, 
No.  239.  entertained  the  members  or  Long  Beach 
Parlor  of  Native  Daughters  and  a  lew  invited 
friends  of  both  organizations.  Edgar  MeFadyen 
presided,  and  W.  E.  Arandecar  delivered  the  wel 
coming  address.  Many  other  members  made  short 
addresses,  which  were  interspersed  with  vocal,  vio- 
lin, piano  and  cornet  selections.  In  the  banquet- 
room  was  a  long  table  at  which  fifty  members  and 
guests  sat  down  and  partook  of  delicious  refresh- 
ments. The  floor  was  then  cleared  for  dancing, 
which  continued  until  midnight.  The  Parlor  is 
planning  man}'  social  affairs  in  the  near  future.

Celebrates  Twenty-fifth  Anniversary. 
( .alistoga — The    twenty-fifth    anniverss ry    of    its 
institution    was    fittingly    celebrated    bj     Calistoga 
Parlor,  No.  sti,  May  3rd.     Ralph  .1.   Williams,  presi 
dent  of  the  I':ir!<>r,  presided,  and  an  orchestra   rer 
tiered  selections  throughout  i  he  evening.     Mrs.  F.  11. 
Scott  recited  ''A  Similar  <';ise.''     Past  Grand  Presi 
dent    Charles  M.    Belshaw,   a   guest    of   honor,   deli\ 
ered  an   address  on   the  Order,   in   which    he   stated 
that,  if  the  real  principles  of  the  Order  were  fully 
understood    by    all    native    Californians,    the    Order 
would  have  more  members.     He  told  of  the  Order's 
inception  and  of  its  growth,  and  spoke  of  the  great 
work   being   done   by   the   Native   Sons   and    Native 
Daughters  in  benalf  of  the  homeless  children  of  the 
State — a  work  no  other  fraternal  organizations  have

Beautifying  the  Highway. 

Bakersfield — At  a  recenl  meeting  of  Tejon  Parlor, 
No.  136,  it  was  definitely  decided  to  have  orna- 
mental shrubbery  planted  along  Union  avenue  by 
experienced  gardeners  at  once,  and  the  roadside 
will  be  planted  with  California  poppies.  The  mem 
bers  plan  to  make  this  the  most  beautiful  highway 
in  t\ie  State,  and  are  leaving  nothing  undone  to 
carry   out    their    plans. 

Miss  Dena  Pesante  will  be  the  Parlor *s  candi- 
date for  queen  of  the  Fourth  of  July  celeb  iM  ion 
here,  and  she  will  have  the  undi  vided  support  of 
every  member,  and  numerous  other  admirers. 

A  committee  consisting  of  Miss  Foran  and  Mrs. 
Webster  was  appointed  to  take  up  with  the  manage 
ment  of  the  power  company  the  Parlor's  grievance 
occasioned  through  employees  of  the  company  prac- 
tically ruining  roadside  trees  by  cutting  off  their 
tops.  This  is  a  violation  of  an  agreem.'nl  filtered 
into  between  interested  parties,  the  company 
pledging  the  Native  Daughters  that  the  trees  would 
be    protected.

Press,  to  improvement,  work  being  carried  on  in 
Ventura-by-the-Sea  by  Buena  Ventura  Parlor,  No. 
95,  N.  D.  G.  W.,  is  of  timely  interest,  and  t lie  exam- 
ple set  by  that  Parlor  should  be  followed  not  only 
by  other  Parlors  of  that  Order,  but  as  well  by  Par- 
lors of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  Wesl 

"The  work  being  done  by  the  Native  Daughters 
along  east  Main  street  is  to  be  another  monument  |  d 
the  splendid  efforts  of  the  young  women  who  eon 
stitute  the  Improvement  Club  of  that  deserving 
Order.  It  will  endure  for  all  time.  Already  t  lu- 
parking  proposed  between  the  graceful  Native 
Daughter  palms  is  taking  on  a  definite  shape.  A 
number  of  men  are  busy  all  the  time  under  guid- 
ance of  Frank  Newby  in  getting  the  parks  in  shape. 
The  work  is  progressing  rapidly,  and  it  will  uot  be 
many  weeks  before  the  entire  east  end  of  the  main 
thoroughfare  will  be  in  a  beautiful  condition  and  a 
real  pleasure  to  the  eye,  where  before  it  was  some- 
thing to  be  ashamed  of. 

"The  Native  Daughters,  in  their  successful  efforts 
to  improve  and  make  more  attractive  the  city  sur- 
roundings and  environments,  have  set  a  good  exam- 
ple to  all  women's  clubs.  These  women  have  not 
wasted  their  time  in  chatter  or  pink  teas — not  say- 
ing they  do  not  enjoy  such  social  doings — but  they 
have  done  something  besides.  All  women 's  clubs 
should  see  to  it  that,  united,  they  do  something  be- 
sides.    It  is  united  effort  that  counts."

N.  S.  G.  W.  PARLOR  MEWS 

(Continued    from   Page    29,    Column    2.) 

rietta Garliepp;  humorous  reading,  Miss  Edna  Free- 
man. During  the  evening.  Grand  Third  Vice-Presi- 
dent Thomas  Monohan  delivered  an  address,  in  the 
course  of  which  he  told  of  the  benefits  to  be  derived 
from  membership  in  the  N. 'S.  G.  W.  Mrs.  Car- 
michaelj  an  enthusiastic  Native  Daughter  of  San 
Jose,  also  made  a  telling  speech  in  behalf  of  that 
organization,  preliminary  to  installing  a  Parlor  of 
the  N.  D.  G.  W.  in  this  city.  Following  the  pro- 
gram dancing  was  provided  for  the  younger  ele- 
ment, while  more  sedate  amusements  were  ar- 
ranged for  the  older  people.  Delicious  refresh- 
ments were  served  during  the  evening. 


"Coyote"   Degree  Conferred. 

Oroville — Argonaut  Parlor,  No.  8,  conferred  the 
"Coyote"  degree  on  a  few  chosen  members,  May 
18th.  In  addition  to  the  local  members,  several 
from  Chieo  Parlor,  No.  21,  were  present.  The 
"Coyote"  is  a  fun  side  degree  of  Argonaut  Parlor, 
which  requires  much  bravery  and  fortitude  on  the 
part  of  those  desiring  to  solve  its  mysteries. 

Argonaut  Parlor  also  has  a  good  baseball  team 
which  dishes  up  the  national  game  to  surrounding 
tions  of  ball-tossers. 


Piedmont  Wants  Grand  Trustee. 
Oakland — At  the  coming  session  of  the  Grand 
Parlor  at  Santa  Cruz,  Alameda  County,  the  second 
largest  in  Native  Sonism,  will  have  no  representa- 
tive on  the  board  of  grand  officers,  but  with  the 
backing  of  all  delegates  of  this  county,  Piedmont 
Parlor,  No.  120,  will  present  her  favorite  son  and 
past  president,  Jas.  J.  McElroy,  for  twenty  years  a 
member,  for  election  to  the  office  of  Grand  Trustee 
at  that  session.  Mr.  McElroy  has  attended  many 
Grand  Parlors,  and  has  always  given  the  best  that 
is  in  him  for  the  Order 's  welfare  in  and  around 
Alameda  County,  and  has  given  especial  attention 
to   having   the   local   Parlors    own   their   own   home. 


james  j.  Mcelroy 


He  is  one  of  Oakland's  substantial  business  men, 
and  fifteen  years  ago  served  in  the  State  Legis- 
lature. He  has  been  at  the  head  of  all  great  railroad 
developments  in  this  county,  having  worked  his  way 
from  apprentice  in  the  machine  shops  of  the  S.  P. 
Co.  to  a  recognized  authority  in  railroad  rights-of- 
way,  etc. 

Piedmont  Parlor,  which  was  instituted  over 
twenty-three  years  ago,  has  been  a  great  iactor  in 
organizing  Parlors  in  Alameda  County,  and  has 
itself  grown  to  a  large  membership  and  substantial 
treasury,  and  believes  it  is  entitled  to  representa- 
tion on  the  board  of  grand  officers. — [Published  at 
the  special  request  of  Piedmont  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W.] 


Quiet    Month    in    Los    Angeles. 

Los  Angeles — There  has  been  very  little  doing 
here  this  month,  owing  to  the  fact  that  the  Parlors 
have  had  no  meetings.  The  quarters  formerly 
leased  on  Hill  street  were  vacated  the  first  of  the 
month,  and  the  new  Native  Sons  Hall  on  West 
Seventeenth  street  was  not  ready  for  occupancy. 
The  small  hall  in  the  handsome  new  building  was 
temporarily  fitted  up  May  15th,  however,  and  the 
Parlors  are  meeting  there  regularly  now.  Just  as 
soon  as  the  large  hall,  club-rooms  and  small  hall  are 
completely  furnished,  it  is  planned  to  have  a 
formal  dedication  in  which  all  the  Parlors  will 
join.  This  will  probably  occur  the  latter  part  of 
June. 

Ramona  Parlor,  No.  109,  is  making  arrangements 
for  its  annual  banquet,  which  will  be  held  shortly 
afteT  the  Grand  Parlor  adjournment,  and  will  be 
in  the  nature  of  a  compliment  to  Herman  C.  Lichten- 
berger  who,  it  is  conceded,  will  then  be  the  head 
of  the  Order. 

Corona  Parlor,  No.  196,  is  planning  to  put  on 
its    "Black     Maskers"    side     degree     as     soon    as 


completely  settled  in  the  new  hall,  and  many  mem- 
bers are  anxiously  awaiting  the  opportunity  to 
delve  into  the  mysteries  of  this  fun-provoking 
annex. 

A  membership  contest  has  been  in  progress  in 
Los  Angeles  Parlor,  No.  45,  for  some  time  and  will 
shortly  culminate  in  a  big  class  initiation.  The 
Parlor  plans  to  make  this  a  gala  occasion.  Los 
Angeles  Parlor  promoted  and  largely  financed  the 
hall  proposition,  and  its  members  are  justly  proud 
of  their  efforts  to  provide  a  suitable  home  for  the 
Order   here. 

Sierra  Madre  Parlor,  No.  236,  is  working  on  a 
plan  to  increase  its  membership,  and  stimulate 
interest  among  those  already  enrolled.  The  Parlor 
expects  to  have  but  two  meetings  a  month  here- 
after— the  second  and  fourth  Tuesdays — and  wants 
to  build  up  a  membership  that  will  be  willing  to 
devote  two  nights  a  month  to  the  Order's  interests. 
Many  social  affairs  are  being  planned,  and  much 
interest  is  apparent. 

La  Fiesta  Parlor,  No.  235,  has  appointed  a 
booster's  committee  that  will  devise  ways  and 
means  whereby  the  Parlor  may  progress.  It  is 
planned,  among  other  things,  to  inaugurate  a  drill 
team  whose  floor  work-  will  add  interest  to  the 
ritualistic   work. 


Grand  Officer  at  Redlands. 
Kedlands — There  was  a  good  attendance  at  the 
meeting  of  Redlands  Parlor,  No.  168,  May  3rd,  when 
Grand  Trustee  Robert  M.  Clarke  of  Ventura  paid 
his  official  visit.  Many  members  of  Arrowhead  Par- 
lor came  over  from  San  Bernardino  to  help  swell 
the  throng.  The  grand  officer  made  an  interesting 
address  concerning  the  Order,  and  following  the 
business  session  there  was  a  sociable,  during  which 
refreshments  were  served.  Redlands  Parlor  is 
rapidly  forging  ahead  now,  new  members  being 
added  at  eaeh  meeting  and  much  interest  being 
apparent. 


Precita  Parlor  Holds  Initiation. 
San  Francisco — At  the  last  regular  meeting  of 
Precita  Parlor,  No.  187,  before  a  large  delegation 
from  various  local  Parlors,  seven  candidates  were 
initiated.  Following  the  initiation,  the  brothers  ad- 
journed to  the  banquet-room,  where  refreshments 
were  served  and  a  delightful  entertainment  was 
rendered.  Complimentary  remarks  were  made  by 
George  F.  Welch,  past  president  and  director  of  the 
.hall  association,  who  spoke  at  length  on  the  pro- 
gress made  on  the  new  hall  and  announced  himself 
as  a  candidate  for  Grand  Trustee. 


Will  Boost  Celebration — Wants  Grand  Parlors. 

Fresno — Fresno  Parlor,  No.  25,  is  to  give  its  sup- 
port to  the  Fourth  of  July  celebration  here,  and 
lias  appointed  Marshal  Robert  S.  Clark  as  a  member 
of  the  general  arrangements  committee.  Invitations 
are  to  be  sent  to  all  Parlors  of  N.  S.  G.  W,  id 
N.  D.  G.  W.  in  Madera,  Modesto,  Crows  Lanomg, 
Dinuba,  Visalia,  Hanford  and  Selma,  asking  their 
members  to  come  to  the  Raisin  City  and  participate 
in  celebrating  the  national  holiday. 

Fresno  Parlor  is  also  going  after  next  year's 
1N.S.G.W.  and  N.D.G.W.  Grand  Parlors,  and  will 
have  a  strong  delegation  at  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand 
Parlors  to  further  its  claims.  The  local  Parlor  of 
Native  Daughters  is  also  interested  in  the  move- 
ment, as  it  is  desired  to  have  the  Grand  Parlors  of 
both  Orders  meet  here  next  year  at  the  same  time. 
At  tneir  meeting  May  8th,  the  Fresno  County  Board 
of  Supervisors  formally  endorsed  the  project. 


Arrowhead  Has  Official  Visitor. 
San  Bernardino — Arrowhead  Parlor,  No.  110,  had 
an  official  visit  from  Grand  Trustee  Robert  M. 
Clarke  of  Ventura,  May  3rd,  and  he  declared  him- 
self well  satisfied  with  the  condition  in  which  he 
found  the  business  and  finances  of  the  Parlor. 
Judge  Clarke  made  the  trip  from  Los  Angeles  in 
an  automobile,  as  the  guest  of  Frank  J.  Palomares 
of  Ramona  Parlor,  who  also  took  along  I.  W.  Birn- 
baum,  Eugene  Biscailuz,  E.  B.  Lovie  and  Clarence 
M.  Hunt,  as  escorts  to  the  grand  officer.  Several 
interesting  addresses  were  made  during  the  even- 
ing by  visitors  and  members,  among  the  latter  being 
Past  Grand  President  Walter  D.  Wagner.  The 
automobile  party  left  for  Los  Angeles  at  6:30  the 
following  morning,  with  the  exception  of  Grand 
Trustee  Clarke,  who  remained  over  to  visit  Red- 
lands  Parlor,  No.  168  the  following  night. 


BADGES  FOR  GRAND  PARLOR  DELEGATES. 

Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  90,  N.  S.  G.  W.,  has 
chosen  a  very  attractive  design  for  the  badges  to 
be  given  the  Grand  Parlor  delegates  when  they 
assemble  in  Santa  Cruz,  June  12th.  It  is  of  metal, 
and  suspended  from  a  bar  is  a  pendant  of  a  big 
tree  and  a  eoekel  shell,  both  appropriate  souvenirs 
of  that  city.  In  the  shell  are  beach  scenes,  and 
across  the  tree  is  outlined  the  inscription:  "Grand 
Parlor,  June  12-18,  1911,  Santa  Cruz."

(BY    MRS.    J.    M.    FRAILEY,    OAKDALE.    CALIFORNIA.) 


ARD  SCRABBLE  MINING  CAMP 
was  iu  a  fever  of  excitement.  There 
had  been  exciting  times  before,  when 
a  poker  game — with  an  unusually 
large  pile  of  gold  dust  as  an  in- 
centive to  cheat  if  you  could — would 
end  in  a  funeral;  or  when  a  stranger 
coming  into  the  camp  would,  with 
i    |  a  condescending  air,  turn  up  his  nose 

7  jftifcr        ■'''     the    whisky    and    bacon    and    the 
*  men  would  consider  it  their  boundeu 

duty  to  escort  him  beyond  their 
boundary.  Lucky  "finds"  had  been  made,  for  al- 
though the  name  of  the  camp  would  suggest  that 
gold  was  not  plentiful  there,  it  had  derived  its  name 
from  the  scrabble  for  claims  that  had  ensued  when 
the  first  gold  had  been  found.  But  excitement  of 
unusual  caliber,  that  rose  and  fell  with  each  suc- 
ceedmg  event,  was  to  culminate  today,  and  it  had 
naught  to  do  with  trivial  things  like  poker  games 
or  "finds,"  or  anything  common  to  the  life  of  a 
mining  camp   in   the   days  of    '49. 

A  woman  was  to  enter  into  the  life  of  the  camp. 
Think  of  it — the  happy,  do-as-you-please  freedom 
was  to  be  broken  by  a  woman;  and  all  the  barriers 
that  had  been  raised,  all  the  dark  looks  and  threats 
had  been  wasted  by  the  inhabitants  on  Bunker. 
On  receiving  a  letter,  he  had  casually  remarked 
that,  "His  woman  thought  of  jining  him  soon." 
Every  man  was  struck  dumb  for  the  time  by  this 
startling  intelligence,  and  Bunker,  on  discovering 
that  his  news  did  not  take  well  with  the  boys,  slid 
out  at  a  side  door  and  did  not  show  up  again  that 
night. 

Windy  Jim  was  the  first  to  recover  his  speech. 
"Wall.  I'll  be  bumfuzzled!"  he  said  in  a  tone  that 
expressed  the  sentiments  of  the  crowd,  who  opened 
their  mouths,  and  such  a  pandemonium  followed  as 
had  never  been  heard  before  in  Hard  Scrabble. 
When  the  noise  had  somewhat  subsided,  and  it  was 
found  that  no  one  had  heard  what  any  one  else  had 
said,  it  was  decided  that  something  had  to  be  done 
to  stop  this  invasion.  So,  after  treating  the  boys, 
Big  Joe,  who  owned  the  saloon  and  store  which 
supplied  the  miners  with  fire-water,  bacon  and 
beans,  mounted  a  box  and  called  for  order.  The 
speech  he  made  never  was  equaled  in  Hard 
Scrabble. 

'Feller  citizens,  inasmuch  as  the  peaceful  quie- 
tude of  this  'ere  camp  am  to  be  desturbed  by  the 
adwent  of  a  bein'  in  petticoats,  it  becomes  our 
juty  to  prevent  this  direful  catastrophe."  He  spoke 
at  length,  telling  his  auditors  how  the  freedom  of 
the  camp  would  be  hampered  by  a  "woman  critter 
nose'n  around  and  interfering  with  our  pastimes." 
He  was  cheered  uproariously  and  his  popularity  was 
henceforth  assured.  Bunker,  however,  had  been  a 
favorite  and  no  one  dreamed  that  he  would  throw 
such  a  bombshell  into  their  midst,  so  it  was  hard 
to   find    three    men    willing   to    form    the    committee 


who  were  to  wait  upon  him  and  inform  him  that 
they   wanted  no  dwaddliug  female  in  camp. 

Seedy  Sam  "'lowed  he'd  have  to  do  er  leetle 
washin '  next  evenin',"  which  brought  jeers  from 
the  crowd,  for  it  was  a  known  faet  that  Sam 's 
wardrobe  was  limited  to  the  clothes  he  had  on  his 
back,  and  certain  it  was  they'd  never  known  soap 
and  water.  Dandy,  who  wasted  paint  and  canvas  in 
the  East  as  long  as  his  money  had  lasted,  and 
talked  of  nothing  but  his  future  as  an  artist,  said 
he  must  finish  the  sketch  he  had  begun.  Stutter- 
ing Tom  was  not  eligible  on  account  of  the  impedi- 
ment in  his  speech,  and  Ireland  was  too  drunk. 
Frenehy  was  not  up  to  snuff  in  the  language  of  the 
West,  and  so  it  fell  on  Big  Joe,  Cowboy  Jack  and 
Windy  Jim,  who  would  never  miss  a  chance  to  talk, 
to   negotiate  terms   of  peace   with   Bunker. 

Accordingly,  the  next  evening  they  repaired  to 
his  cabin  and  stated  the  case  to  him  in  no  uncer- 
tain terms.  But  when  Bunker  had  made  it  plain 
to  them  that  the  innocent  cause  of  all  the  trouble 
was  already  enroute  and  there  was  no  way  to  stop 
her,  they  accepted  the  inevitable  and  went  back 
to  the  saloon,  where  they  adopted  the  following 
resolutions: 

•  ■  Wharas,  William  Bunker,  called  Bill  or  Bunker 
fer  short,  has  showed  sich  poor  jedgement  as  ter 
have  a  woman  tied  ter  him  and — 

'•  Wharas,  The  foresaid  woman  has  tooken  it  upon 
herself  to  enter  the  precincts  of  Hard  Scrabble  min- 
ing camp,  hereto-fore,  herearter  and  at  all  times 
sacred  to  man  and  whisky,  be  it  known  that  we, 
the  citizens  of  this  yer  camp,  agree  to  ignore  Bill 
for  said  offense  and  ship  the  woman  arter  givin'  her 
a  spell   ter  rest   ep. ' ' 

After  this.  Bill's  only  companion  was  the  "Par- 
son, "  so  called  from  his  refusal  to  imbibe  poor 
whisky  or  to  bet  his  gold  on  a  game  of  poker. 
Such  had  been  the  state  of  feeling  in  Hard  Scrabble 
for  two  months,  and  each  time  the  stage  unloaded 
its  burden  every  resident  anxiously  looked  to  see 
if  a  vision   in  petticoats  alighted. 

But  one  day  the  stage  was  laid  up  for  repairs 
a  few  miles  back,  and  a  man  coming  on  foot,  re- 
ported a  woman  aboard.  All  work  was  suspended 
and — though  it  would  have  been  putting  your  life 
in  jeopardy  to  have  suggested  the  woman  as  the 
cause — each  man  emerged  from  his  cabin  shortly 
before  the  arrival  of  the  stage,  looking  much  the 
better  for  soap  and  water.  Even  Seedy  Sam  had 
washed  his  face  and  was  hardly  recognizable.  Big 
Joe  was  kept  busy  filling  glasses  to  pay  liquid  bets 
as  to  the  appearance  of  "Bunker's  wife."  for  each 
in  his  own  mind  had  formed  an  opinion  as  to  what 
she  was  like.  Bunker  held  quietly  aloof  and  the 
Parson  grinned  as  he  saw  how  the  boys  spruced 
up  for  the  coming  of  the  "petticoats." 

Many  a  heel-top  was  left  in  a  glass  as  the  stage 
hove  in  sight  around  the  bend,  and  Dandy,  the  dude 
of  the  camp,  who  hung  back  to  look  at  himself  in 


the  piece  of  broken  mirror  he  always  kept  handy, 
was  punished  for  his  vanity  by  falling  over  a  box 
and  putting  his  nose  out  of  commission.  Windy 
Jim  had  been  talking  so  fast  that  he  forgot  the 
stage  was  soon  due,  and  in  his  haste  to  get  a 
vantage  point  on  the  store  porch,  knocked  Texas 
rtanger  off  the  steps  and,  had  it  not  been  for  the 
timely  interference  of  Big  Joe,  a  fight  would  have 
been  the  first  thing  that  greeted  Mrs.  Bunker  on 
her  arrival.  The  stage  slowed  up  at  the  store  and 
the  boys  tried  hard  to  conceal  the  look  of  ex- 
pectancy, clearly  written  upon  their  faces. 

It  was  plainy  evident  there  was  something  wrong, 
for  Pete,  the  stage  driver,  had  not  sworn  one  oath 
since  coming  within  hearing  of  the  crowd.  This 
caused  sinister  glances  to  pass  among  the  miners, 
and  Big  Joe  had  an  "  I-told-you-so  "  look  as  he 
frowned    his    disapproval. 

Bunker  stepped  forward  and  assisted  a  woman 
to  alight,  and  led  her  to  his  cabin.  Where  excite 
ment  had  reigned  before,  now  disappointment  was 
dominant.  If  the  Hard  Serabbleites  had  to  be  pes 
tered  by  a  woman,  she  might  have  at  least  had  a 
semblance  of  good  looks.  This  one  was  tall  and 
angular,  with  sandy  colored  hair  and  red  face.  The 
men  had  not  seen  her  eyes,  for  she  kept  them 
lowered,  and  consequently  could  not  know  that  they 
redeemed  an  otherwise  plain  face.  Numerous  were 
the  ejaculations  of  disgust  as  the  populace  fol 
lowed  Big  Joe  back  to  the  bar;  and  someone  re- 
marking, "Guess  that's  why  he  come  West,"  the 
emphatic  affirmation  which  came  from  all  showed 
unanimous  opinion  of  "Bunker's  wife." 

A  week  passed  and  things  had  gone  back  to  their 
old  routine  in  Hard  Scrabble.  No  one  had  had  but 
a  casual  glance  at  Mrs.  Bunker — and  even  that  from 
afar — but  the  Parson,  who  was  a  nightly  visitor 
at  Bill's  cabin  before  she  came  and  still  continued 
to  drop  in  there  of  an  evening.  None  ventured  to 
ask   his  opinion,  and  he  did  not  volunteer  one. 

It  was  remarked,  however,  that  Bunker  was  look- 
ing rather  scrumptious  of  late,  and  Seedy  Sam 
declared  that  his  shirt  had  been  buttoned,  his  hair 
combed  and  his  trousers  lacking  the  California  soil 
that  should  adorn  the  seat  and  legs  of  a  miner's 
pantaloons,  when  he  looked  him  over  that  day.  But 
the  next  week  things  began  to  change.  Bunker's 
wife  was  much  in  evidence,  always  with  a  nod  and 
smile   for  everyone. 

Then  it  was  not  only  Bill  that  spruced  up,  but 
even  Seedy  Sam  could  lay  some  claim  to  neatness, 
and  on  Saturday  night  many  were  the  tales 
told  of  little  acts  of  kindness  by  Bunker's  wife. 
Ireland  told  how  he'd  been  off  duty  and  ailing,  and 
said  he,  "Faith  and  begorra,  she  jest  be  arter 
comin'  in  rather  aisy  loike  and  she  says  to  me,  says 
she,  'Phat  could  I  be  a  doin '  fer  ye,'  and  afore  I 
could  answer  she  had  begun  tidin'  up  me  room  a 
bit,  and  fixed  me  a  bite  to  ate.  Ioike  me  own  mither 
use  ter  make  in  the  oul  country — vis  she  did." 

"That  thar  truck  she  toted  over  to  my  cabin 
when  I  had  the  cramps  war  the  fust  decent  grub 
I've  tasted  in  this  yer  camp,"  said  Lean  Jake,  and 
Seedy  Sam  reckoned  she'd  cleaned  things  up  a  bit 
for  him  and  he'd  eaten  off  a  clean  tin  plate  fer  the 
first  time  since  calling  these  diggings  his  home. 
Mrs.  Bunker  had  won  Cowboy  Jack  over  by  prais- 
ing his  sombrero,  and  the  liniment  she  had  rubbed 
on  Texas  Ranger's  sprained  wrist  had  worked  like 
magic.

;KET 


DAY  GUIDI 


(By  CLARENCE  E.  JARVIS,  Grand  First  Vice-President,  N.S.G.W.,  Sutter  Creek,  Amador  County.) 

This  Carson  Trail  followed  the  course  of  the  Car- 
son River  through  Hope  Valley,  by  Red  Lake,  over 
"Slippery  Rock"  to  the  Summit,  where  Carson 
blazed  a  hemlock  tree — "Kit  Carson,  1S44. "  This 
tree,  in  after  years,  was  cut  down,  and  the  blaze 
removed  and  placed  in  the  Pioneer  Building  iu  San 
Francisco.  Shortly  before  the  great  earthquake  and 
fire  of  1906,  it  was  removed  to  the  Ferry  Building, 
where  it  now  holds  a  prominent  place  in  the  mining 
exhibit. 

From  this  tree  began  the  descent  of  the  western 
slope  of  the  Sierras,  a  course  being  taken  down  the 
South    Fork    of    the    American     River.      After    the 


HE  "CARSON  TRAIL,"  OVER  THE 
Sierra  Nevada  Mountains,  was 
named  for  Christopher  Carson,  bet- 
ter known  as  "Kit"  Carson.  Car- 
son was  born  in  Madison  County, 
Kentucky,  on  the  24th  day  of  De- 
cember, 1809.  He  was  married  to 
Bosita  Cavirovious,  a  Mexican  girl 
of  Taos,  New  Mexico.  He  died  sud- 
denly at  Fort  Lynn,  Colorado,  May 
23,  1868;  his  remains  were  latex 
interred  at  Santa  Fe.  Kit  Carson  was 
a  man  of  small  stature,  but  compact  frame;  he  had 
a  large  head  covered  with  long,  sandy  hair,  and 
keen  gray  eyes.  He  was  distinguished  for  truth- 
lulness  and  honesty.  His  education  was  neglected, 
but  he  had  great'  natural  abilities,  speaking  the 
French  and  Spanish  languages,  also  several  Indian 
dialects.  His  knowledge  of  Indian  customs,  his 
skill  with  firearms,  and  his  brave,  intrepid  disposi- 
tion, served  to  make  him  the  most  notable  hunter, 
scout  and  guide  known  in  Western  history;  and  to 
his  brave  efforts  is  due  the  advance  of  Western 
civilization. 

In  April,  1S29,  he  started  with  a  party  of  eighteen 
on  his  first  trip  to  California,  leaving  De  Taos, 
New  Mexico;  they  came  by  way  of  the  Salt  and 
San  Francisco  Rivers,  following  the  course  of  the 
old  Spanish  Trail  to  Mission  San  Gabriel,  where 
they  found  a  priest,  fifteen  Mexican  soldiers  and 
1000  Indians.  Thence  they  took  a  course  northeast, 
by  way  of  Mission  San  Fernando,  to  the  San 
Joaquin  River  until  they  reached  the  Saeiamento, 
which  they  crossed  and  proceeded  to  Mission  San 
Rafael.  The  priest  at  this  mission  was  having 
trouble  with  Indian  deserters,  and  Carson  and  hi* 
party  volunteered  their  services,  engaged  the 
Indians  in  conflict,  and  returned  those  who  were 
not  killed  to  the  Mission.  A  short  time  after,  he 
returned  to  New  Mexico  by  the  Spanish  Trail. 

Fremont's  expedition  to  California  left  a  little 
town  in  Kansas  on  the  29th  day  of  May,  1843,  and 
was  joined  by  Kit  Carson  seventy  miles  from  Fort 
Bent.      They     traveled    by     way     of     Laramie     to 


hardships  and  adventures,  told  of  today  by  the 
few  remaining  Pioneers.  The  following  story  was 
given  me  by  W.  H.  Prouty,  Sr.,  a  Pioneer  of  lone 
Valley: 

"March  8,  1911. 
' '  To  Clarence  E.  Jarvis — Tragedy  Springs,  in 
Amador  County,  derived  its  name  from  a  murder 
having  been  committed  there  on  June  8,  1848.  A 
party  of  emigrants,  three  in  number,  were  waylaid 
and  murdered,  either  by  Mormons  or  Indians  (as 
near  as  could  be  ascertained),  and  left  in  their 
gore.  Shortly  after  the  tragedy  a  party  was 
formed  in  Carson  Valley,  Nevada,  and  came  over 
the  mountains  in  search  of  the  desperadoes,  and  also 
to  bury  the  bodies.  The  names  of  the  murdered 
were  cut  into  a  hemlock  tree  near  the  grave,  viz., 
Anderson,  Browett  and  Cocks.  I  first  made  a  note 
of    these    facts   in    August,    1852.      I    again   passed 


CARSON    SPUR    ROAD. 
(The    Horseman    in    the    Sky.) 


Klamath  Lake,  Oregon,  through  a  barren,  moun- 
tainous country,  and  thence  southerly  along  the 
eastern  slopes  of  the  Sierras.  It  was  midwinter 
and  the  snow  was  six  feet  deep  on  the  level.  As 
game  was  scarce  and  their  provisions  limited,  it 
was  a  ease  of  starve  or  cross  the  Sierras.  All 
agreed  to  cross,  so  snowshoes  were  made  for  the 
entire  party.  The  trail  was  made  by  leading  a 
horse  through  the  snow  until  he  was  exhausted, 
when  a  fresh  horse  took  his  place,  and  so  on.  In 
some  places  the  snow  had  to  be  beaten  solid  with 
mallets,  to  make  it  passable.  Fifteen  days  were 
consumed  in  crossing  the  Sierras,  and  the  party  was 
forced  to  eat  several  of  the  mules  and  horses,  which 
were  none  too  juicy.

party  were  safely  out  of  the  snow,  Fremont  and 
Carson  pushed  on  rapidly  to  Sutter  Fort,  return- 
ing with  provisions  to  those  left  behind.  All 
reached  Sutter  Fort  in  a  destitute  condition  on  the 
6th  day  of  March,  1844,  remaining  there  until 
March  24th,  when  the  party  started  on  the  return 
journey,  following  the  course  of  the  San  Joaquin 
River,  crossing  to  the  west  side  and  continuing 
close  to  the  Coast  Range  until  they  struck  the 
Spanish  Trail  and  followed  it,  by  way  of  the 
Mohave  River,  until  Vega  Santa  Clara  was  reached. 
Here  they  struck  across  to  Utah  Lake  and  jour- 
ueyed  to  Fort  Bent,  arriving  the  2nd  day  of  July, 
1  844.  Here  Kit  Carson  left  the  expedition  and  went 
to  De  Taos,  New  Mexico,  to  see  his  family. 

In  1845.  Carson  again  started  to  California  with 
Fremont,  by  the  Carson  River  route.  This  route 
was  used  by  many  of  the  early  emigrants  to  Cali- 
fornia. At  Corral  Flat,  on  the  west  side  of  the 
Sierras  near  Silver  Lake,  it  forked,  one  road  lead- 
ing to  Hangtown  (Placerville),  the  New  El  Dorado, 
and  the  other  continuing  to  the  gold  mines  of 
Amador  County.     This  route  was  the  scene  of  many

Los  Angeles,  was  married  in  that  city,  June  6th, 
to  Marjorie  Mosher,  daughter  of  Mr.  and  Mrs.

to  Robert  Arthur  Allen.  Miss  Louise  Janssens  and 
James  D.  Cavelletto  attended  the  couple.  Plans  to 
keep  the  wedding  quiet  failed,  and  when  the  bridal 
couple  arrived  at  the  depot  to  depart  on  their  honey- 
moon, a  large  delegation  of  Native  Daughters  was 
on  hand  to  shower  them  with  rice,  old  shoes,  and 
good  wishes.  Following  a  week  in  San  Franeisco, 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Allen  took  up  their  residence  in  Santa

buildings,  stores,  churches  and  resi- 
dences were  features  of  the  Fourth 
Of  July  exercises  :ill  over  the  State, 
in  L861,  It  is  said  that  San  Fran 
cisco,  Sacramento  and  other  eiti< 
sembled  a  forest  of  liberty  trees,  so 
many  flagpoles  had  been  put  up  since 

the  Ch  d    War  began.     Over   20, 

flags  were  displayed  in  San  Fran 
cisco.  a  flag  was  raised  upon  the 
■*  summit  of  the  highest  peak  on  the 
Marysville  Buttes.  At  the  Stockton  asylum,  a  flag 
68x40  feel  was  raised  on  a  pole  172  feet  high,  and 
204  flags  of  all  an t inns  decorated  tin-  buildings. 
Hear  Valley,  Mariposa  County,  raised  a  liberty  pole 
l'11  feet  high  and  Miss  Lizzie  Park  unfurled  a  flag 
28x40  feet,  $5000  being  raised  for  the  celebration. 

I  be  day  was  an  extremely  hot  one,  105  degrees  in 
the  shade  ln-iii^,  i  egi-vt  .-red  in  nearly  e\  ery  town 
where  patriotic  exercises  were  held. 

There  were  a  large  number  of  accidents  reported 
and  numerous  affrays,  the  latter  being  so  frequently 
the  outcome  of  political  discussions  that  nearly  all 
can  be  attributed  to  this  cause.  Every  town  cele- 
brating had  its  goddess  of  liberty  and  an  elaborate 
display  of  the  national  colors,  while  the  money 
spent  for  fireworks  represented  :m  enormous  outlay. 
A    military    review   and   fireworks   in    San   Fram     3CO 

drew    a    crowd    of    20,000    people    to    Washington 

Square. 

A  list  of  the  Fourth  of  July  orators  in  the  differ 
ent  towns  celebrating  a  half -century  ago  contains 
many  names  of  men  who  became  prominent  in  Cali- 
fornia public  life.  In  San  Francisco  were  Edward 
Tompkins  and  Thomas  Fitch;  Sacramento,  T.  Starr 
King;  lone,  J.  W.  Coffrotbj  Placer  ville,  Jas. 
Reynolds;  Miarysville,  A.  I..  Hatch;  Weaver  ville. 
Judge  Miller;  Yreka,  Kev.  .1.  W.  Ross;  Shasta,  Jas.

Rev.  J.  Brierly;  Mokolumne  HU1,  Robt.  Thompson; 
Sutter  Creek,  Henry  Eno;  Tehama,  L.  H.  Sanborn;

Sargent;  Sonora,  H.  P.  Barbour;  Auburn,  J.  E.  Hale; 
-.ear  Valley,  F.  M.  Pixley. 

The  Welsh  population  of  North  San  Juan  was  then 

numerous  enough  to  take  charge  of  the  celebration 

of   the   Fourth  and   make   it  an   American  Cymrican 

affair.     Over  400  Welshmen  paraded  and  every  one 

said  to  be  an  enthusiastic  Union  man. 

Quite  a  newspaper  controversy  arose  over  the 
fact  that  Rev.  T.  Starr  King  copyrighted  his  oration 
delivered  at  Sacramento,  before  its  delivery,  and 
thereby  prevented  its  publication  in  full  by  the 
newspapers,  that  claimed  it  was  an  effort  to  make 
out  of  patriotism  a  profit. 

Politics  Still  at  Fever  Heat. 

The  Union  Democratic  State  Convention,  which 
represented  the  Douglas  wing  of  the  Democratic 
party  in  the  presidential  campaign  of  1860,  met  at 
Sacramento  on  July  4th.  There  were  640  delegates. 
Leander  Quint  of  Tuolumne  was  made  temporary 
chairman  and  J.  W.  Coffroth  permanent  chairman; 
J.  W.  Scobey  of  Placer,  secretary.  John  Conners, 
J,  Gr.  Downey  and  Eugene  Casserly,  all  natives  of 
Ireland,  and  John  Bidwell  and  Judge  MeCorkle  of 
Butte  County  were  placed  in  nomination  for  gov- 
ernor. It  took  four  days  and  fourteen  ballots  to 
unite  on  a  choice,  when  John  Conners  of  El 
lo  was  made  the  nominee.  Henry  Edgerton  and 
Joseph  McKibben  were  nominated  as  candidates  for 
Congress;  B.  C.  Whitman,  Justice  of  the  Supreme 
Court;  Richard  Irwin  of  Butte,  Lieutenant-Gov- 
ernor; G.  W.  Bowie  of  Sacramento,  Attorney-Gen- 
eral; George  S.  Evans  of  Tuolumne,  Clerk  of  Su- 
preme Court;  J.  T.  Londrum  of  Shasta.  Treasurer; 
J.  E.  Nutman  of  San  Francisco,  Controller;  J.  J. 
Gardner  of  San  Francisco,  Surveyor-General,  and 
J.  R.  Ridge  of  Yuba  County,  State  Printer.  A 
strong  Union  platform  was  adopted.  The  ticket  was 
considered  a  very  popular  one,  with  able  politicians 
in  charge. 

The  convention  of  the  Breckenridge  wing  re- 
assembled at  Sacramento  on  July  23rd  and  had  an 
lonious  discussion  over  a  platform  which, 
after  adoption,  was  claimed  to  be  opposed  to  seces- 
sion and  also  Lincoln's  administration.  It  nomi- 
nated J.  R.  jxicConnell  of  Nevada  for  Governor; 
Jasper  O  'Farrell  of  San  Francisco,  Lieutenant-Gov- 
ernor; W.  C.  Wallace  of  San  Francisco,  Justice  of 
the  Supreme  Court;  D.  O.  Shattuck  of  San  Fran-

Notorious  Gun-man  Meets  Death. 

The  nit!  mil  mis  Sam  Brown  was  shot  and  killed 
near  Genoa  on  July  7th.  He  had  earned  a  reputa 
t inn  as  a  desperado  second  to  none  on  the  Pacific 
Coast.  He  was  a  stoutly  built]  finely  developed 
man,  weighing  200  pounds.  lie  had  an  imi 
chest  and  possessed  double  the  strength  of  an  ordi 
nary  man.  Wearing  his  hair  long  like  an  Indian  a 
bushy  growth  of  red  whiskers,  and  dressing  in  buck 
skin  clothes,  he  was  as  notable  .'i  personage  in  fch 
milling  camps  as  Samson  undoubtedly  was  in  Ins 
day.  It  is  stated  he  had  killed  during  his  re< 
career  sixteen  men- -three  in  Texas,  ten  in  Calif  O] 
nia,  and  three  in  Nevada,  being  counted  as  his  rec 
old.  lie  claimed  he  had  killed  them  all  in  self 
defense,  it  was  due  to  his  efforts  to  kill  a  wayside 
housekeeper  named  Van  Sickle  that  he  met  his 
death.  He  once  had  a  difficulty  in  a  gambling  place 
in  Calaveras  County  with  a  man  named  Woodruff, 
whom  he  stabbed,  causing  Lnstanl  death.  He  re- 
moved the  body,  curled  himself  up  on  a  faro  table, 
and  slept  calmly  the  remainder  of  the  night.  lie 
bad  killed  all  together  four  men  in  *  lalaveras  County, 
when  he  was  convicted  of  manslaughter  and  sent  to 
the  state  prison,  serving  a  short  term.  He  at- 
tempted to   kill    Van   Sickli account  of  a  grudge 

lie  held  against  him,  but  Van  Sickle  was  such  a 
good  sprinter  that  he  got  out  of  Brown's  way  after 
being  chased  through  several  rooms  and  out  of  his 
roadside  house.  Shortly  after  Brown  had  departed 
un  horsebaek  with  a  companion.  Van  Sickle  gathered 
,-i  posse  of  bis  friends  and  started  in  pursuit,  and 
soon  overtaking  Brown  got  the  "drop"'  on  him  and 
fired  twelve  bullets  into  Brown's  body  from  a 
double-barreled  shotgun.  A  great  feeling  of  relief 
was  given  to  the  community,  and  many  breathed 
easier  who  had  cause  to  tear  Brown 's  willingness 
to  take  human  life.  Van  Sickle  was  honorably 
acquitted  the  next  day, 

News  of  the  death  of  James  Finney,  alias  "Old 
Virginia,'3  on  June  20th,  was  received,  lie  was  the 
original  discoverer  of  the  mines  on  the  Comstoek 
Lode,  and  Virginia  City  was  named  from  his 
sobriquet  in  1858,  He  came  to  Gold  Canyon  in  1857, 
from  Paris,  Indiana.  Comstoek  obtained  a  privilege 
from  him  to  work  a  claim  on  a  lease.  Subsequently 
Finney  sold  out  to  Comstoek  and  partners  for  an 
old  horse  and  $40  in  cash.  From  such  interesting 
incidents,  the  history  of  nearly  all  great  mining 
discoveries  has  its  foundation. 

Gold,  silver,  copper  and  tin  mines  were  reported 
found  in  Holcomb  Valley,  and  advices  received  in 
Los  Angeles  stated  that  at  least  ten  men  had  been 
either  shot  or  stabbed  in  affrays  over  locations.  The 
Union  Company,  at  Cumberland,  Sierra  County,  uu 
covered  a  thirty-pound  chunk  of  gold  worth  $500.  A 
duel  was  founght  at  Amador  City  July  27th  by  two 
men  named  Rose  and  Thompson.  They  had  two 
shots  at  each  other  when  Thompson  dropped,  seri 
ously  wounded.  Contrary  to  the  general  run  of 
such  occurrences,  politics  was  not  the  cause  of  their 
dispute,  but  the  affections  of  a  woman  was.

A  brilliant  cornel  became  visible  in  the  northern 
sky,  in  line  of  vision  with  the  "big  dipper,"  and 
kept  the  Calif ornians  interested  during  the  first 
ten  days  of  the  month.  It  was  claimed  to  be  the 
reappearance  of  the  Charles  V  comet  appearing  in 
A.   D.  12(54  and  1556  and  having  a  period  of  about 

300  years.  It  will  be  due  again  about  A.  D.  2160. 
A  hot  spell  came  with  the  advent  of  the  comet  and 
the  temperature  of  the  State,  from  Los  Angeles  to 
h'ed  Bluff,  was  over  100  degrees  daily  for  over  a 
fortnight,  and  11"  degrees  in  the  shade  in  the  after- 
noon was  not  unusual  in  different  parts  of  the  val- 
leys. 

The  town  of  Columbia,  Tuolumne  County,  was 
again  practically  destroyed  by  fire  on  July  27th. 

The  Liberty  Hotel  near  Yankee  Jims,  a  populai 
wavside  house,  was  burned  July  14th,  and  another 
equally  popular  teamsters1  refuge,  built  in  1852  and 
called  the  Junction  House,  near  Auburn,  burned  this 
month.

wen-  sent  East.  The  first  trip  of  the  stage,  from  St. 
Joseph  in  Sacramento,  was  made  in  seventeen  days 
and  four  hours.  It  had  one  passenger.  The  fare 
was  $200.

The  San  Francisco  Omnibus  <  o.  was  organized 
with  a  capita]  of  $100,000.  This  was  the  first  street.

to  Mission  Dolores. 

Two  San  Francisco  butchers  raced  their  horses  for 
$500  a  side  from  Mission  Creek  to  San  Jose  and 
return,  108  miles.  The  race  was  won  by  the  horse 
driven  in  a  sulky  by  Butcher  Higgius,  in  eleven 
hours  and  fifteen  minutes. 

Col.  llaraszthy  of  San  Francisco  sold  to  Col. 
Sherwood  of  the  same  City  sixty  acres  of  land  near 
Crystal  Springs,  in  San  Mateo  County,  for  $60  an 
acre.  The  land  was  said  to  be  exceptionally  valu- 
able on  account  of  being  covered  with  large  trees. 

An  earthquake  shock  that  was  felt  over  nearly  the 
entire  State  occurred  at  10  p.m.,  July  3rd.  The  cen- 
ter of  disturbance  appeared  to  be  in  Amador  Valley, 
Alameda  County. 

There  were  many  business  failures  among  stock 
and  grain  raisers  in  the  San  Joaquin  Valley,  due  to 
the  spring  season  of  drought,  and  attachments  were 
being  numerously  served  upon  the  property  of  the 
bankrupt  producers.  At  French  Camp,  200  head  of 
cattle   were   auctioned   off  at   $4   a   head. 

During  July.  3492  passengers  arrived  by  sea  in

;uccessful 


N  DUE  RITUALISTIC  FORM, 
Grand  President  Daniel  A.  Ryan 
called  the  Thirty-fourth  session  of 
the  Grand  Parlor,  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West,  to  order  in  the 
Casino  Auditorium,  Monday,  June 
12th,  at  10  a.m.,  and  under  his 
guidance,  the  meeting  passed  into 
history  as  one  of  the  most  harmoni- 
ous in  the  history  of  the  Order's 
councils.  All  the  delegates  seemed 
to  be  of  one  accord  in  reference  to 
proposed  legislation,  and  much  interest  was  dis- 
played in  preserving  the  early  history  and  land- 
marks of  the  State.  In  fact,  at  the  close  of  the 
session,  June  15th,  one  grand  officer  aptly  remarked 
that  the  work  of  the  delegates  indicated  the  Order 
had  at  last  taken  up  seriously  those  things  for 
which  it  was  brought  into  being — the  advancement 
of  our  State,  and  the  preservation  of  her  early-day 
history   and   interesting   landmarks. 

The  event  of  the  morning  session,  shortly  after 
the  Grand  Parlor  convened,  was  an  address  by  Pro- 
fessor Henry  Morse  Stephens,  of  the  department  of 
philosophy  and  history  of  the  University  of  Cali- 
fornia. Professor  Stephens  took  the  opportunity 
to  thank  the  Native  Sons  of  California  for  the  lib- 
eral support  they  had  given  as  a  body  to  research 
in  historical  work  as  carried  on  by  the  State  Uni- 
versity, as  it  applies  to  the  State  of  California.  The 
speaker  lauded  the  industries  of  the  State  during 
his  discourse,  and  concluded  by  expressing  the  hope 
that  the  Native  Sons  would  continue  extending  aid 
to  historical  research.  The  professor's  remarks 
were  warmly  greeted,  and  he  was  given  a  rising 
vote   of   thanks. 

After  lunch,  the  delegates  listened  to  discourses 
on  home  industry  by  speakers  from  the  Home  In- 
dustry League  of  California.  C.  H.  Workman 
spoke  on  "Statistics,"  Charles  Halloway,  Jr.,  on 
"Publicity,"  H.  M.  Owens  on  "Opportunities  for 
California  Products,''  and  D.  J.  Alberga  on  "What 
the  Native  Sons  Can  Do  for  California." 

Later  in  the  afternoon  C.  C.  Moore,  president  of 
the  Panama-Pacific  International  Exposition  Com- 
pany, addressed  the  delegates  in  behalf  of  the  191n 
Exposition   at   San  Francisco. 

James  D.  Phelan,  a  member  of  Pacific  Parlor,  No. 
10,  San  Francisco,  was  given  permission  to  speak, 
and  delivered  an  interesting  discourse  on  the 
Native  Sons  Hall  in  San  Francisco.  Mr.  Phelan 
closed  his  remarks  by  asking  the  Grand  Parlor  to 
be  his  guests  at  his  Santa  Cruz  home,  Tuesday  after- 
noon, and  the  invitation  was  accepted  with  cheers. 
Prior  to  adjournment,  the  officers  of  Santa  Cruz 
Parlor,  No.  90,  assumed  the  several  stations  and 
exemplified  the  initiatory  ritual  in  a  very  credit- 
able manner,  the  candidate  being  Frazier  Lewis,  son 
of  Mrs.  Patty  Reed  Lewis  of  Capitola,  and  grand- 
son of  the  late  James  Frazier  Reed,  both  members 
of  the  band  that  suffered  such  great  hardships  on 
Donner  Lake   in  the   State's  early   days. 

All  matters  not  directly  connected  with  the  Grand 
Parlor's  work  being  thus  taken  care  of  during  the 
first  day  of  the  session,  the  remaining  days  of  the 
meeting,  Tuesday,  Wednesday  and  Thursday,  were 
devoted  strictly  to  those  matters  pertaining  to  the 
Order  and  its  work.  A  full  account  of  all  business 
transacted   is  herewith   set   forth: 


H.   G.   LICHTENEERGER,    of  Los  Angeles, 
Grand    President-elect. 


the  early  age  of  thirty-five,  he  was  in  1890  elected  "by  a 
large  majority  an  Associate  Justice  of  the  Supreme  Court 
of  the  State  of  Caliornia.  Retiring  from  the  Supreme 
Bench,  he  engaged  in  the  practice  of  law  in  San  Francisco 
in  1902,  as  a  member  of  the  firm  of  Garroute  &  Good- 
win, with  marked  success.  Possessing  in  a  marked  degree 
the  pioneering  spirit  of  his  father,  the  lure  of  gold  led 
him  to  Nevada,  where  he  spent  much  of  the  time  of  his 
later  years  attending  to  important  matters  at  those  points. 

The  record  of  our  Order  shows  that  Brother  Garroute 
first  appeared  as  a  charter  member  of  the  Woodland  Par- 
lor, No.  30,  of  the  N.  S.  G.  W.,  and  filled  various  chairs 
of  that  Parlor.  He  was  chairman  of  the  Woodland  com- 
mittee on  reception  to  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  N.  S.  G. 
W.,  at  its  1886  session,  where  his  strong  personality  at- 
tracted the  attention  of  the  delegates  at  that  session,  and 
led  to  his  selection  as  a  candidate  for  Grand  Vice-Presi- 
dent by  a  committee  of  Past  Grand  Presdients;  was  unani- 
mously elected  to  that  office,  and  at  the  following  session 
at  Nevada  City  elected  as  Grand  President.  Under  his 
administration  the  Order  prospered,  and  twelve  new  Par- 
lors were  instituted.  For  his  faithful  service  to  the  Order, 
continuing  until  his  death,  he  is  entitled  to  the  lasting 
gratitude  of  his  fraternal  brothers,  who  sadly  received  the 
news  of  his  passing  from  our  midst  in  the  prime  of  his 
manhood,  when  the  brightest  future  for  able  work  was 
before    him. 

We  will  not  invade  the  sanctity  of  his  home  life,  from 
whence  came  at  all  times  evidence  of  that  great  love  of 
husband  and  father;  that  pride,  faith  and  loyalty  which 
heeds  and  obeys  only  the  gentle  voice  of  woman  and  the 
cry  of  helpless  and  feeble  childhood.  In  private  life,  his 
character  and  ability  were  recognized  to  such  a  degree, 
that  his  counsel  was  ever  sought,  and  ever  relied  upon 
by  his  neighbors  and  clients  in  the  close  affairs  of  the 
moment,  and  ever  found  wise  and  beneficial.  To  his 
family  we  extend  our  heartfelt  sympathy;  with  the  State 
we  regret  the  loss  of  an  honored,  loyal  son  and  citizen, 
and  to  the  Grand  President  of  the  Universe,  we  commend 
the  care  of  a  beloved  brother. 

This  is  the  record  of  our  brother's  life,  who  with  the 
calm  dignity  which  characterized  him  while  living,  ac- 
cepted the  inevitable  final  call,  and  whose  memorable  let- 
ter of  farewell  to  his  brothers  touched  the  deepest  chord 
of  sympathy  within  their  hearts. 

'  'The    book     is     dosed,     the    prayer     is     said, 
And    he     is     a    part     of    the     countless     dead, 


RESOLUTIONS  ADOPTED   IN 

MEMORY  OF  DECEASED  OFFICERS. 

The  following  resolutions  were  adopted  by  a  ris- 
ing vote  and  ordered  spread  upon  the  minutes  of 
the  Grand  Parlor,  and  copies  sent  to  the  relatives  of 
the  deceased.  Those  in  memory  of  Past  Grand 
President  Charles  Henry  Garroute  were  submitted 
by  a  committee  of  Past  Grand  Presidents;  those  in 
memory  of  Grand  Trustee  Nathan  P.  Bundy  and 
James  E.  Isaacs,  a  former  Grand  Trustee,  by  the 
Board  of  Grand  Trustees: 

Charles    Henry    Garroute. 

Let  us  pause  in  the  midst  of  our  labors,  that  the  deeds 
of  our  loved  dead  may  be  placed  on  the  pages  of  our 
records,  as  they  are  inscribed  on  the  tablets  of  our 
memory,  and  cherished  with  love  in  our  hearts.  The 
roll  of  the  living  Past  Grand  Presidents  of  our  Order 
has  been  called  at  this  Grand  Parlor,  and  the  answer 
to  the  name  of  Charles  H.  Garroute  was,  "Not  here." 
The  roll  of  the  dead  is  called  and  from  the  place  which 
the    living   may    never    know,    the    answer    is,    '  'Here.' ' 

Brother  Charlr-s  Henry  Garroute,  Past  Grand  President 
of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  was  born  in 
the  county  of  Yolo,  State  of  California,  on  the  15th  day 
of  October,  1854,  and  reared  within  the  borders  of  the 
State  which  gave  him  birth.  He  died  at  Berkeley,  Cali- 
fornia, in  the  year  1910.  Exhibiting  early  in  life  a 
studious  disposition  and  intellectual  ability,  promising  a 
bright  future;  completing  his  general  education  his  am- 
bition was  toward  the  legal  fraternity,  where  success  fol- 
lowed his  primary  efforts.  In  public  life  he  obtained  the 
confidence  of  his  home  people  and  filled  the  responsible 
offices  of  District  Attorney  and  Judge  of  the  Superior 
Court   of   Yolo    County   with    such   marked    ability,    that    at 


LOUIS  H.   MOOSER,    of   San  Francisco, 
Grand    Third    Vice-President-elect. 


Thrice   happy   then    if    some    soul    can   say: 
I    lived    because    he    passed    my    way." 
We    recommend    that    a    copy    of    this    report    be    spread 
on    a    nage    of    the    records    of    the    Grand    Parlor,    and    one 
sent    to    the    family    o    our    Brother    under    the    seal    of    the 
Grand    Parlor. 

Nathan  P.  Bundy. 
Shortly  following  the  Admission  Day  celebration  of  last 
year  in  San  Francisco,  the  membership  of  our  Order 
throughout  the  State  was  shocked  and  grieved  by  the  sad 
tidings  of  the  unexpected  death  of  Grand  Trustee  Nathan 
P.  Bundy.  Brother  Bundy  was  born  in  Los  Angeles 
County  on  Admission  Day,  in  1880.  He  was  educated  in 
the  public  schools  of  his  native  county  and  entered  the 
legal  profession  and  gave  promise  of  a  useful  career  in 
his  chosen  profession  when  the  hand  of  death  closed  his 
work  ere  it  had  hardly  well  begun.  He  became  a  mem- 
ber of  the  Order  on  July  *24,  1906,  being  a  charter  mem- 
ber of  Sierra  Madre  Parlor,  No.  235.  His  interest  and 
fidelity  to  the  Order,  as  well  as  his  sterling  worth  and 
ability,  were  immediately  recognized.  He  was  sent  as  a 
delegate  to  the  Grand  Parlor  at  Yosemite  in  1908,  and 
returned  again  to  Marysville  in  1909,  where  he  was  elected 
Grand  Trustee.  He  was  re-elected  at  Tahoe  and  a  useful 
and  brilliant  career  was  anticipated  for  him  in  the  Order. 
He  had  been  happily  married  for  a  period  of  less  than 
a  month  at  the  time  of  his  death,  and  besides  a  loving 
wife  he  left  to  mourn  his  untimely  death,  a  father,  mother, 
three  brothers   and  a   sister. 

Whereas,  Grand  Trustee  Bundy  was  a  kind  and  lov- 
ing husband,  a  good  and  exemplary  citizen,  as  well  as 
an  earnest  and  faithful  member  and  a  devoted  and  effi- 
cient   Grand    Officer    of    our    Order ;    and, 

Whereas,  In  the  death  of  Grand  Trustee  Bundy,  the 
State  of  California  has  lost  a  good  citizen  and  the  Order 
of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  has  been  de- 
prived of  the  wise  counsel  and  zealous  efforts  of  a  useful 
member    and    Grand    Officer;    therefore,    be   it 

Resolved,  That  while  we  humbly  bow  to  the  will  of  the 
Almighty,  we  deeply  deplore  the  loss  of  our  brother;  that 
to  his  young  wife  upon  whom  Phis  afflicting  dispensation 
falls  most  heavily,  we  extend  our  sincere  condolence  and 
heartfelt    sympathy;    and    be    it    further 

Resolved,  That  these  resolutions  be  spread  upon  the 
minutes  of  the  Grand  Parlor  and  that  a  copy  thereof, 
under  the  seal  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  be  sent  to  the  widow 
of  our   deceased  brother. 

James    E.    Isaacs. 

There  was  called  to  the  Grand  Parlor  on  High  our 
esteemed  Brother,  James  E.  Isaacs,  of  McCloud  Parlor, 
No.  149,  a  former  Grand  Trustee  of  our  Order.  Brother 
Isaacs  took  a  deep  interest  in  our  Order  in  its  earlier  his- 
tory, performing  his  duties  as  a  Grand  Officer  with  zeal, 
energy  and  sincerity,  being  deeply  imbued  with  the  prin- 
ciples of  the  Order,  which  he  so  dearly  loved.  He  was  a 
native  of  Shasta  County,  living  there  the  span  of  his  life. 
fifty-four  years,  a  splendid  type  of  manhood.  He  was 
conspicuous  among  his  fellow-man  for  his  high  ideal  of 
good  citizenship,  and  in  the  practice  of  his  profession  of 
the  law,  was  noted  for  his  integrity  and  ability.  Never 
was  his  name  tarnished,  and  when  he  passed  away  at  his 
home  in  Redding,  in  his  native  county,  June  8,  1911,  he 
was  mourned  by  all  who  knew  him  for  his  noble  character 
and  sterling  worth.  He  had  lived  the  life  of  a  true  and 
loyal   Native   Son. 

Whereas,  In  the  death  of  former  Grand  Trustee  Isaacs 
our  State  has  lost  a  worthy  and  exemplary  citizen,  and 
our  Order  one  o>  its  most  enthusiastic  workers  in  Northern 
California;     therefore,     be    it 

Resolved,  That  while  we  yield  to  the  decree  of  Divine 
Providence  in  removing  our  brother  from  a  field  of  use- 
fulness and  of  honor,  we  who  knew  him  in  life  keenly 
feel  our  loss,  and  we  extend  to  his  family  our  heartfelt 
sympathy  and  express  the  hope  that  they  may  find  con- 
solation in  the  thought  that  their  husband  and  father 
leaves  behind  a  memory  of  unblemished  character;  and, 
furtner 

Resolved,  That  these  resolutions  be  spread  upon  the 
minutes  of  the  Grand  Parlor  and  a  copy  of  the  same, 
under  the  seal  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  be  sent  to  the  widow 
of    our    deceased   brother. 


RESTORATION  PLANS  FOR 

STATE'S    HISTORIC    LANDMARKS. 

The  committee  on  Historic  Landmarks,  composed 
of  J.  R.  Knowland,  Lewis  F.  Byington  and  J.  Desi- 
mone,  submitted  its  report,  which  was  adopted, 
and  an  appropriation  of  $1000  made  for  the  work 
of  the  committee  during  the  ensuing  year.  The 
report  follows,  in  full: 

At  the  Tahoe  session  of  the  Grand  Parlor  a 
special  per  capita  tax  of  seven  and  one-half  cents 
was  levied,  to  be  expended  under  the  direction  of 
the  Historic  Landmarks  Committee  for  the  preser- 
vation of  landmarks  within  the  State.  This  special 
levy  made  available  a  fund  of  $1,476.45.  Your 
committee  has  experienced  difficulty  in  making 
recommendations  for  the  expenditure  of  this  fund 
because  of  the  many  landmarks  possessing  great 
historical  value  which  are  in  immediate  need  of 
attention.  No  epoch  of  California's  faseinating 
history  is  more  interesting  or  important  than  that 
during  which  the  twenty-one  Franciscan  Missions 
were  established  at  points  from  San  Diego  to 
Sonoma.  These  landmarks  have  been  gradually 
disappearing,  until  today  but  seventeen  of  the  old 
missions  remain,  and  a  number  of  thees  are  in  a 
poor  state  of  preservation. 

Each  year  their  value  historically  is  being  more 
strongly  impressed  upon  the  minds  of  Californians. 
Unless  immediate  action  is  had,  however,  several 
of  the  most  picturesque  of  these  reminders  of  the 
days  of  Spanish  sovereignty  will  become  hopeless 
ruins.  One  of  these  missions  is  Santa  Tnez,  founded 
in  1804,  and  located  in  Santa  Barbara  County. 
A  member  of  this  committee,  Past  Grand  President 
Lewis  F.  Byington,  recently  made  a  special  trip  to 
the  mission   for  the   purpose   of  formulating  plans

ings of  the  mission  period.  It  is  estimated  thai 
M  will  require  aboul  $750  to  repair  the  root  and 
approximately  $1500  to  restore  t  he  bell  tower  ami 
buttresses,  Four  committee  is  informed  that  the 
amount  for  the  repair  of  the  buttresses  can  be 
iaise.1  by  those  who  reside  in  the  vicinity  or  county. 
It  was  also  reported,  but  this  report  lias  not  been 
verified,  that  the  sum  necessary  fur  the  restoration 
of  the  bell  tower  will  be  provided  by  the  Bishop 
at  Los  Angeles  if  we  repair  the  roof.  Your  com- 
mit tee  recommends  that  the  necessary  funds  be 
appropriated  for  re-roofing,  provided  that  the 
promised  assistance  from  other  quarters  is  forth- 
coming and  the  expenditures  made  under  the 
supervision  of  the  Landmarks  ( Vmimittee.  repre 
senting  the  Grand   Parlor. 

It  was  through  the  efforts  of  this  Order,  acting 
with  the  California  Historic  Landmarks  League, 
that  San  Antonio  de  Padua  Mission  in  Monterey 
('.unity  was  saved  from  total  destruction.  The 
work  of  restoration  began  in  1903,  was  continued  in 
1905,  but  in  1906  the  earthquake  wrought  great 
damage,  demolishing  the  newly  erected  walls  and 
injuring  other  portions  of  the  mission.  Conditions 
were  most  discouraging,  but  at  the  Grand  Parlor 
session  of  1000  funds  were  provided  to  begin  anew 
the  work  of  restoration.  By  1907  the  demolished 
walls  of  the  chapel  had  been  sufficiently  rebuilt  1m 
support  a  new  roof,  thus  protecting  the  walls  from 
the  heavy  winter  rains.  Your  committee  has  re- 
cently received  a  report  from  San  Antonio  Mission 
conveying  the  information  that  little  damage  has 
resulted  notwithstanding  the  heavy  rains  of  the 
past  three  winters,  the  new  roof  protecting  the 
adobe  walls.  In  several  places,  however,  the  under- 
pinning needs,  immediate  attention.  There  are  sec- 
tions of  the  walls,  not  necessary  to  carry  the  roof 
timbers,  which  were  left  unfinished,  because  of 
the  scarcity  of  funds.  The  roof  should  receive  a 
eoai  of  oil  and  graphite.  A  few  dollars  now  spent 
will  save  a  much  larger  expenditure  in  later  years. 
We  recommend  that  a  tablet  be  placed  at  this  mis- 
sion stating  that  it  was  restored  through  the  efforts 
of  this  Order. 

While  little  remains  of  Mission  San  Jose,  in  Ala- 
meda County,  it  is  important  that  the  single  adobe 
building  be  repaired  and  cared  for  in  the  future. 
This  matter  has  been  taken  up  by  the  Native  Son 
Parlors  of  Alameda  County  and  by  the  people  in 
the  immediate  vicinity  of  the  mission.  A  little 
assistance  from  the  Grand  Parlor  would  be  highly 
appreciated. 

Your  committee  notes  with  extreme  pleasure  that 
tne  last  Legislature  appropriated  the  sum  of  five 
thousand  dollars  for  the  restoration  and  rebuilding 
of  Mission  San  Francisco  de  Solano  in  Sonoma,  and 
that  the  bill  was  signed  by  Governor  Johnson,  a 
member  of  the  Order.  Sonoma  mission  is  the  prop- 
erty of  the  State,  and  it  was  therefore  possible  to 
obtain  State  aid.  This  is  the  only  mission  owned 
by  the  >>tate,  the  buildings  and  grounds  having 
been  purchased  through  a  fund  raised  by  popular 
subscription  and  later  turned  over  to  the  Common- 
wealth. 

San  Juan  Bautista  Mission,  in  San  Benito 
County,  is  in  serious  need  of  repairs  and  should 
receive  attention.  It  is  impossible  with  the  money 
on  hand  to  accomplish  half  of  the  work  immedi- 
ately necessary.  It  is  hoped  that  at  the  next  ses- 
sion of  the  Legislature  funds  can  be  provided  for 
the  preservation  of  the  buildings  remaining  at  the 
old  Russian  settlement,  established  at  Fort  Ross. 
Sonoma  County,  in  1812.  This  property  is  now 
owned  by  the  State  and  should  be  looked  after, 
for  already  the  old  Greek  chapel,  the  most  interest- 
ing of   the   remaining  buildings,   has  fallen. 

Through  the  efforts  of  this  Order,  over  $100,000 
has  been  expended  in  the  restoration  of  Sutter's 
Port  and  in  beautifying  the  surrounding  grounds. 
This  Grand  Parlor  and  the  Sutter  Fort  Memorial 
Committee  have  considered  it  fitting  that  the  re- 
mains of  General  Sutter  be  removed  from  Penn- 
sylvania and  deposited  within  the  walls  of  the 
restored  fort  which  he  originally  built  in  this  State. 
General  Sutter  is  buried  in  the  little  town  of 
Lititz,  containing  a  population  of  two  thousand, 
in  the  state  of  Pennsylvania.  The  chairman  of  this 
committee   recently  visited   the  grave,   photographs

rl'he   Moravian   congregation   will   not   consent    to 

the   removal   of   the   remains  to  < California   without 

the   consenl    of  all   the  relatives.     Alphonse  Sutter, 


WM.   P.   CAUBU,   of  San  Francisco, 
Newly    elected    Grand    Trustee. 


the  grandchild  of  his  youngest  son,  has  consented. 
The  addresses  of  all  the  other  relatives  have  been 
obtained.  His  great,  grandchild,  Howard  Joseph 
Sutter  Bull,  writes  that  neither  his  mother  nor 
himself  will  consent  to  the  removal,  making  this 
rather  astonishing  statment:  "Neither  General 
Sutter  nor  his  heirs  owe  anything  to  California." 
In  view  of  what  has  been  done  in  California  in  an 
effort  to  honor  the  memory  of  this  distinguished 
Pioneer,  it  would  seem  that  at  least  one  of  the 
relatives  is  without  appreciation.  Many  interest- 
ing facts  were  brought  to  light  regarding  the  last 
few  years  of  the  General's  life,  his  death  and 
burial,  which  will  be  turned  over  to  the  proper 
authorities  at    the   State  University. 

Your  committee  recommends  that  the  request  of 
the  Camp  Far  West  Committee  be  complied  with 
and  the  sum  of  $75  be  given  that  committee  out 
of  the  Landmarks  Fund  to  assist  in  the  erection 
of  the  proposed  monument  at  Camp  Far  West,  in 
Yuba    County. 

The  Parlors  of  Sonoma  County  have  started  a 
movement  for  the  erection  of  a  suitable  monument 
upon  the  spot  on  the  public  square  of  Sonoma 
where  the  Bear  Flag,  now  the  official  flag  of  Cali- 
fornia, was  first  raised  on  June  14,  1846.  We 
heartily  endorse  the  movement  and  recommend  that 
the  matter  be  taken  up  at  the  nest  session  of  the 
State   Legislature. 

The  members  of  Petaluma  Parlor  have  acquired 
the  adobe  house  built,  and  for  many  years  occupied 
by  General  M.  G.  Vallejo,  and  your  committee 
hopes  in  the  future  to  be  able  to  render  assistance 
to  this  commendable  project. 

The  tree  which  the  Grand  Parlor  planted  in  the 
Vosemite  Valley  during  the  session  held  in  that 
wonder  spot  of  the  world  has,  we  are  informed, 
disappeared,  the  inscription  upon  the  fence  alone 
remaining.  This  matter  should  receive  the  atten- 
tion   of    the    incoming    Grand    Officers.

CAMP   FAR   WEST   COMMITTEE 

MAKES  INTERESTING  REPORT. 

The  Camp   Par   West    Monumenl    Committee   Bub 

nutted    the   following   report,    signed    by    Or.    L.    L. 

Kiiueler,  .1.  M.  Mol'nsey  and  .1.  Iv  I.ewis,  which 
was  adopted,  and  1  he  sum  asked  for  voted  through 
t  he    Historic     La  ml  marks    <  Von  mil  tee: 

We,  your  committee,  appointed  to  acl   in  conjunc 
tion    with    the     Historical     Landmarks    Committee, 

beg    to   so  inn  it    the   following   report:      A   piece   of 

ground,  eighty  three  by  sixty-five  feet,  has  been  Io 
cated,    surveyed,    and    a    deed    to    the    same    is    about 

ready.  The  cemetery,  that  contains  some  twenty- 
five  unmarked  graves  of   Pioneers  buried   there  be 

t  ween    t  he   yea  i  s    I  844    and    1 856,   is   to    I nclosed 

by  a  stone  coping  three  feet  high.  In  the  center 
of  the  plat  is  to  be  placed  :i  granite  base  four  feet 
square  and  three  feet  high.  This  is  to  be  sur- 
mounted by  an  aluminum  bronze  monument  two 
feel  square  at  the  base  and  five  feet  high  and  the 
shaft   to  be  suitably   inscribed.     As  this  monument 

is  to  be  situated  ;it  a  place  where  there  will  be  ah 
soiutely  no  further  expense  incurred  either  to  any 
Parlor  or  to  the  Grand  Parlor,  we,  your  committee, 
ask  that  the  sum  of  seventy  live  dollars  be  drawn 
from  the  Historical  Landmarks  Fund  to  hell'  com 
plete  the  same.  We  furthermore  ask  that  we  be 
given   time   to  complete   same. 

The  cemetery  lies  among  the  low  foothills  of 
tie'  Sierras,  at  a  point  about  forty  miles  northeast 
of  Sacramento  and  twenty  miles  southeast  of 
Mnrysville,  the  pomt  being  on  the  north  bank  of 
Bear  River  on  the  Johnson  Rancho  iu  Yuba  County. 
The  first  authentic  history  we  have  dates  from  the 
spring  of  1844.  A  Mexican,  Pablo  Guatteirez,  while 
working  for  General  Sutter,  came  under  the  good 
graces  of  Governor  George  Michaeltorena.  The 
Governor,  to  show  his  kindly  feelings,  granted  him 
a  piece  of  land  containing  22.193  43-100  acres. 
Guatteirez  built  adobes  at  a  point  on  the  river 
where  he  could  ford  it  in  going  to  and  from  Sutter 
Fort.  During  the  latter  part  of  the  year  he  was 
murdered  while  carrying  mail  from  the  fort  to 
Monterey. 

On  April  29,  1845,  General  Sutter,  acting  as 
judge  of  the  jurisdiction  of  <  lalifornia,  sold  the 
lain]  and  cattle  to  Wm.  Johnson  for  the  sum  of  one 
hundred  and  fifty  dollars.  As  all  travelers  from 
Sutter  Fort  and  vicinity  had  to  cross  the  river  at 
this  point  in  going  to  Marysville,  mountain  towns 
and  camps,  the  place  was  then  known  as  Johnson  's 
Crossing  and  quite  a  settlement  sprang  up  around 
it.  During  the  winter  of  1846-47  W.  E.  Eddy,  of 
the  Donner  "Forlorn  Hope  Party,"  assisted  by  In- 
dians, staggered  into  camp  and  John  Rhodes,  a  resi- 
dent, went  to  Sutter  Fort  for  succor.  The  relief 
party  sent  out  by  General  Sutter  first  came  to  the 
crossing  and  then  continued  on  its  way  up  the  Bear 
River  to  Donner  Lake,  eventually  returning  with 
the  rescued,  who  remained  at  the  settlement  for 
a  short  time  before  going  to  their  different  destina 
tions. 

After  the  close  of  the  Mexican  War  in  1848,  the 
United  States  Government,  recognizing  the  import 
ance  of  the  location,  sent  two  companies  (E  and  F 
2nd  U.  S.  Inf.),  under  command  of  Captain  Hanni 
bal  Day.  to  establish  a  military  post.  The  soldiers 
sawed  by  hand  enough  timber  to  erect  seven  build 
ings  and  gave  it  the  name  "Camp  Far  West.'"  In 
1850  a  townsite  was  laid  out  and  named  Kearney, 
in  honor  of  General  Kearney.  By  the  end  of  the 
year  1850  the  camp  was  abandoned  on  account  of 
the  gold  fever,  caused  by  the  discovery  of  placer 
mines  of  the  Yuba  River,  and.  by  1856,  the  place 
was  deserted  entirely,  even  by  civilians.  The  cenie 
tery  was  once  surrounded  by  a  fence,  hut  nothing 
now  remains  except  a  few  bricks  and  sunken 
graves.

A   PROTEST  AGAINST  MONGREL 

ENGLISH   AND    MANNERS. 

OR  A  YEAR  NOW  I  HAVE  BEEN 
studying  the  children  of  my  neigh- 
borhood. I  find  that  the  same  rules 
which  apply  to  the  dear  little 
trained  horse  named  "Snowball" 
apply  to  them.  You  may  remember 
I  told  you  of  this  wonderful  little 
equine  which  was  on  exhibition  at 
Haywards  last  Fourth  of  July  under 
the*  protection  of  the  Humane  So- 
ciety of  Oakland.  Nobody  could 
treat  little  Snowball  unkindly,  be- 
cause she  was  protected  by  this  organization.  They 
did  not  permit  her  to  be  overworked,  either.  Every 
once  in  awhUe  she  was  given  a  recess,  and  the 
show  was  closed  up.  But  what  I  want  especially 
to  speak  of  is  this:  the  trainer  who  had  her  in 
charge  was  very  gentle  with  her  always.  He  told 
me,  "You  know  Snowball  knows  nothin'  'cept  wot 
sne  learns  from  us."  Could  anything  be  truer 
than   this   about   the    children    themselves? 

As  long  as  God  gives  me  breath  T  am  going  to 
talk  ou  this  subject.  I  grew  up  among  the  miners, 
who  knew  how  to  be  gentlemen  when  women  and 
children  were  around.  No  matter  what  they  might 
be  themselves,  they  always  wanted  us  to  be  good 
and  succeed  in  the  world.  Their  story  has  never 
been  told  by  anyone  but  myself.  We  children  were 
to  them — these  so-supposed-to-be  rough  men — so 
many  "Snowballs,"  to  be  protected  even  from 
themselves  and  encouraged  in  using  the  best  speech 
and  in  having  the  best  of  manners.  They  always 
reproved  me  when  I  said  "You  bet"  to  them  and 
reminded  me  that  my  mamma  never  talked  like 
that  and  I  ougiit  to  try  to  grow  up  to  be  a  nice 
woman,  like  she  was.  That  was  what  I  learned  from 
the  miners — to  appreciate  good  manners  and 
speech. 

I  heard  the  other  day  of  a  poor  child  who  was 
a  sea  captain's  daughter,  and  seafaring  men  were 
nt'ten  at  the  house.  They  all  swore  in  her  pres- 
ence and  laughed  when  she  learned  to  imitate  their 
ways.  She  was  a  perfectly  innocent  little  girl,  yet 
no  one  wanted  their  children  to  associate  with  her 
because  of  this  terrible  blasphemous  speeeh  she 
had  been  taught  at  home.  When  she  was  fifteen 
she  awakened  to  the  misery  of  her  position,  and 
begged  to  be  sent  away  to  school.  She  devoted 
herself  to  the  study  of  English  and  manners  more 
faithfully  than  anyone  does  to  Latin  or  Greek,  and 
finally  achieved  success.  When  she  married  aud 
had  little  "Snowballs"  of  her  own  to  rear,  no  one 
was  more  careful  to  start  the  best  of  language  and 
the  most  refined  of  courtesy  in  her  home  than  did 
this  captain's  daughter.  She  had  learned  bitterly 
to    appreciate    what    these    needs    were. 

Words  fitly  spoken  are  like  apples  of  gold  in  pic- 
tures of  silver.  Out  splendid  English  speech  is  the 
irvstallization  of  our  Aryan  origin.  Everybody 
should  be  studying  English.  T  heard  a  German  re- 
mark that  it  was  strange  how  much  better  Eng- 
lish was  spoken  by  educated  foreigners  than  by 
the  Americans.  I  was  sorry  to  have  to  agree  with 
him.  Hardly  were  the  words  out  of  my  mouth, 
when  a  female  voice  screamed  out,  "By*  gosh,  ye 
got  the  best  o?  me."  The  owner  of  the  voice  was 
a  musician  who  played  finely  on  the  piano.  She 
was  arrayed  in  a  white  gown.  Her  husband  was 
cashier  in  a  prominent  bank  in  Oakland,  or  San 
Francisco.  I  forget  which.  The  house  of  my  friend 
where  we  were  invited  for  the  evening  to  enjoy 
choice  music  and  the  companionship  of  refined  peo- 
ple was  a  dream  of  beauty.  But  everything  was 
spoiled  in  that  moment.     I  was  told  afterwards  that 


this  uncouth  being  had  a  strain  of  negro  blood  in 
her.   and  I  believe   it. 

But  the  poor  little  children  pick  up  every  slang 
»'xpnjssion  on  the  street  and  bring  it  into  the  home 
as  if  it  were  something  clever  to  do.  It  is  not 
clever;  it  is  very  stupid.  People  are  not  speaking 
English  when  they  tell  you  you  are  a  "Mut, "  that 
you  have  got  "nuts,"  or  in  response  to  something 
they  do  not  wish  to  do,  say  "Guess  nit."  They 
are  talking  the  lingo  of  the  stables.  When  they 
open  their  mouths,  toads  and  vipers  fall  out  when 
instead,  if  only  they  chose  to  have  it  so,  they 
could  be  having  diamonds  and  pearls.  As  I  said 
at  the  beginning  of  this  essay,  I  have  been  study- 
ing the  children  of  my  neighborhood  for  a  year. 
They  have  now  become  little  sleuths  themselves  in 
going  after  infractions  of  English  just  by  starting 
the  thing  as  one  would  a  new  game.  They  call 
each  other  to  order  when  anyone  says  a  book  or 
a  picture  is  "swell."  "You  mean  splendid,"  they 
say   in   a  chorus. 

Everybody  said  "yous"  for  "you — even  our 
gifted  Jewish  boy,  who  is  a  good  Latin  scholar  in 
the  high  school.  Now  the  seven-year-old  little 
Ark-adian  sister  sees  to  it  that  this  bad  English 
is  reproved  at  once.  "Between  you  and  I"  dies 
hard — they  are  so  used  to  hearing  the  grown-ups 
say  that,  instead  of  "Between  you  and  me."  They 
even  have  hot  debates  on  the  subject;  but  there  is 
always  one.  endowed  with  common  sense,  who 
comes  to  the  rescue  and  says,  "Why,  you  wouldn't 
say  'Between  I.'  would  you?"  As  for  the  tough 
songs  of  the  nickelodeons  and  eoarse  words  hurt- 
ling through  the  streets,  this  little  home  of  mine 
is  as  safe  from  them  now,  as  if  the  magic  word. 
"Taboo."  were  written  upon  the  threshold.  That 
is  a  word  borrowed  from  Tahiti,  and  means 
' '  sacred    from   intrusion. ' ' 


THE  MARVELS  OF  CHILDHOOD. 

In  last  month's  "Native  Home  Items"  I  de- 
clared that  if  we  would  but  let  the  childrens' 
minds  develop  according  to  the  laws  of  their  own 
natures,  by  keeping  them  innocent  of  evil,  that  they 
wmiM  give  us  new  thoughts  never  thought  before, 
and  express  a  creativeness  that  would  fill  us  with 
wonder.  This  is  no  idle  boast.  A  week  ago  I 
showed  my  children  a  blue  saucer  which  came  from 
Japan.  It  contained  a  very  clever  picture  of  the 
sacred  mountain  "Fujiyama,"  which  the  Japanese 
have  advertised  until  all  the  world  knows  of  it. 
"Why  can't  yon  make  a  design  of  our  Tamalpais 
Mountain,"  I  said,  "and  let  the  world  know  we 
have  a  sleeping-beauty  lady  to  be  seen  on  the  hori- 
zon in  its  outline  against  the  West?  I'll  have  it 
put  on  a  saucer  to  show  what  you  children  can  do. 
Of  course  we  are  dunderheads,  and  they  are  bril- 
liant geniuses  in  art,  but  what's  to  hinder  our  do- 
ing some  original  work  like  this?"  Home  from  a 
picnic  came  Lady  Agnes,  and  she  brought  me  a 
circular  piece  of  cardboard  and  on  it  was  a  sketch 
of  Tamalpais.  On  the  side  were  odd  designs  most 
puzzlingly  like  Chinese  letters,  but  she  laughed  and 
said  they  were  "trees."  Every  few  days  the 
children  bring  me  a  new  design,  and  all  are  original. 


By  the  time  the  exposition  arrives  we  shall  have  a 
little  exhibit  of  our  own.  We  are  going  to  take 
Shasta   next. 

We  are  going  to  copy  the  design  on  the  cover 
of  Joaquin  Miller's  poems,  as  it  is  magnificent  and 
just  suited  to  the  purpose.  Our  artist  Ark-adian 
boy  discovered  it.  He  had  a  surprise  awaiting  me 
the  other  day  when  I  came  home  from  downtown. 
We  had  some  modeling  clay  which  James  D.  Phelan 
had  enabled  us  to  get,  and  he  went  at  this  stuff 
with  a  certain  idea  in  his  head  and  produced  a  small 
model  of  the  Pioneer  Mother  with  the  little  girl 
on  one  side  holding  an  open  book,  a  tiny  boy  sit- 
ting at  the  other  knee,  and  a  babe  held  in  her  lap 
with  her  one  hand,  while  with  the  other  she  point- 
ed upward  to  the  heaven  above.  You  may  be  sure 
it  caused  a  sensation  in  our  precincts,  for  every 
child  knew  all  about  it  from  the  photographs  which 
have  been  made  for  us  on  this  subject  by  H.  E. 
Poehlman.  Proudly  I  showed  it  to  the  boy's 
mother  when  she  called  the  other  evening,  and  she 
could  hardly  believe  her  eyes.  Also  I  took  her  out- 
side and  exhibited  the  plaster  cast  of  an  eagle 
placed  as  a  decoration  on  my  house,  aud  which 
every  child  had  had  a  hand  in  producing.  But  it 
was  her  boy  who  had  gone  to  the  Presidio  gates 
and  copied  the  eagle  there,  and  who  had  first  mod- 
eled it  in  clay  for  the  rest  of  us  to  cast  into  the 
plaster  mould.  He  had  put  a  very  deep  U.  S.  A. 
into  the  heart  of  it  all  his  own,  to  give  my  house 
protection  by  the  use  of  those  magic  letters.  We 
now  consider  ourselves  a  civic  body,  standing  for 
law  and  order  in  this  neighborhood  of  ours. 

Of  course,  sometimes  comical  things  happen  and 
I  am  going  to  tell  you  one  of  these.  Now  that  va- 
cation has  given  the  children  their  freedom  from 
school,  many  are  the  quaint  expressions  I  hear 
from  time  to  time.  While  playing  jacks  on  the 
floor  the  other  evening,  one  small  girl  remarked 
languidly, 

"No  more  pencils,  no  more  books, 
No  more  teachers'   saucy  looks. 
I   am    so    glad.      I   just    hate   my   teacher."      "Oh, 
Rosie, "   objected   little    Ada    Cecelia    reprovingly. 
1 '  you    mustn  't    say    that.       God    loves — even — the 
teachers."

THE    ARTEMESIA    BINDERY. 


1ST  WHAT  LIFE  &CBANS  TO  US 
is  the  measure  of  out  power  to  use 
tin*-.'  Bhapeless  masses  of  materia] 
which  lie  about  our  daily  path.  The 
I i    tells  as: 

•  •  \,  hat   we   i " ■ , ■ . ] 

Is  the  celestial  fire  to  change  the 
Bint 

Into    transparent    crystal     bright 
ami   clear. 

That   fire   is   genius. 

On  thf  outskirts  of  Los  Angeles 
ties  what  is  known  as  tin1  '"artists'  colony.''  Here 
Els  \  g  gathered  artists,  writers,  musicians,  who  are 
pleased  to  feel  that  they  stand  a  little  apart  from 
the  main  traveled  road.  Needless  to  say.  they  keep 
a  watchful  eye  on  the  passing  train  and  record  in 
songj  verse,  story,  or  picture  taose  events  which 
seem  most   worthy  to  survive. 

Turn  from  the  quiet  street  up  the  sycamore- 
guarded  path,  and  pull  the  bell  of  the  Artemesia 
Bindery.  Here  you  will  be  met  by  Ida  Meacbam 
Strowbridge  's  welcoming  hand  and  smile.  The 
place  speaks  eloquently  of  home  and  work  and  love. 
Within  call  of  those  she  loves  best.  Mrs.  Strow 
bridge  pursues  her  labor  of  love.  Not  only  does 
she  give  us  the  soul  of  a  book,  but  she  can  clothe 
that  soul  in  a  fitting  body.  One  branch  of  her  work 
is  suitable  binding,  illustrating  and  illuminating. 
"Do  not  despise  the  day  of  small  things,"  has 
found  its  truest  interpretation  here,  for  no  task  is 
so  small,  no  detail  so  unimportant  but  that  it  re- 
ceives her  most  careful  attention.  She  modestlj 
disclaims  artistic  power  and  straightway  presents 
us  with  those  gems  of  desert  life  in  which,  if  we 
look  with  a  seeing  eye  beneath  the  mere  lines  and 
binding,  we  can  see  the  great  pulsing  heart  of  the 
Gray  Sage  Land. 

"There  in  that  land  set  apart  for  Silence  and 
Space  and  the  Great  "Winds,  Fate— a  grim,  still  fig- 
ure— sat  at  her  loom  weaving  the  destinies  of  des- 
ert men  and  women.  The  shuttles  shot  to  and  fro 
without  ceasing,  and  into  the  strange  web  were 
woven  the  threads  of  Light  and  Joy  and  Love;  but 
more  often  were  they  those  of  Sorrow  or  Leath  or 
Sin.  From  the  wide  Gray  Waste  the  Weaver  had 
drawn  the  color  and  design,  and  so  the  fabric's 
warp  and  woof  were  of  the  desert's  tone."  The 
genius  who  has  given  us  this  transmuted  treasure 
is  the  mistress  of  the  Artemesia  Bindery. 

Mrs.  Strowbridge  has  a  collection  of  more  than 
a  hundred  paintings  by  Western  artists — pictures 
she  has  chosen  thoughtfully,  as  she  does  all  things. 
and  which  reflect  most  vividly  the  land  she  loves 
so  well.  Here  ia  said  to  be  the  largest  and  best  col- 
lection of  Western  paintings  yet  made. 

Prom  the  Artemesia  workshop  have  come  three 
exquisite  volumes:  "In  the  Miners T  Mirage 
Land."  "The  Loom  of  the  Desert,"  and  "The 
Land  of  Purple  Shadows."  Of  Mrs.  Strowbridge 's 
work,  George  Hamlin  Fitch,  our  greatest  Western 
critic,  writes  appreciatively:  "It  is  the  simple 
emotion  that  charges  words  with  a  strange  potency 
and  makes  them  move  the  sympathetic  reader  like 
a    strain   of   fine   music   haunting  the  memory  long 


CONDUCTED  BY  NETTIE  S.  GAINES 


after  the  sound   has  died  upon   the  ear.     To   those 
who  6    senses    bave    not    been    blunted    and    whose 
mind   is  open   to   ihe  sweet   influences   of  thi 
and   the   greal    silences,   these   sketches    will    appeal 
with   unusual    force.*' 
Through   Mrs.  Strowbridge 's  pen   those  who   have 

never    known    the    ileserl    have    1 n    made    to    feel    its 

lure,    and    the    hand-    of    old    friendship    have     been 
drawn     closer.        All     look     forward     eagerly     for     an 

other  story  drawn  from  the  same  source. 


CALIFORNIA    THE    GOLDEN. 
California's  b Lstory  has.  within  the  lasl  i-'w  years, 
attracted  the  attention  of  many  of  its  leading  edu 

Cators.       The    last     one     to    give     this    theme    earnesl 

consideration  is  Rockwell  D.  Hunt  of  the  CJniver 
- 1 1  j    of   Southern    California.       Mr.     Hunt,     in     his 

preface,  says:  "I  have  had  constantly  in  mind 
the  needs  of  that  great  army  of  boys  and  girls  in 
our  public  and  private  schools,  whose  lives  should 
lie  I'lirielu-d  and  ennobled  by  intelligent  instruction 
in    the  history  of  our  great   and   sovereign  State." 

While  the  book  is  designed  for  use  as  a  text 
booh,  or  as  a  supplementary  reader  in  the  upper 
grades  of  the  grammar  schools,  yet  the  general 
reader  will  find  it  most  interesting.  Scenes  of  the 
past  as  well  as  those  of  the  present  give  to  the  vol- 
ume an  added  interest.  Boards  of  education 
throughout  California  would  do  well  to  give  this 
volume  more  than  a  passing  interest.  Supple- 
mentary books  are  almost  without  number,  but 
those  California^  should  be  given  preference  when 
thev  are  worthy  of  it. 


ADVENTURE. 

The  setting  of  Jack  London's  late  book.  "Ad 
venture, "  is  in  the  Solomon  Islands.  Beranda 
plantation  is  the  scene  of  the  story.  Through  mis- 
representation, David  Sheldon,  the  hero  of  the 
story,  and  his  partner,  are  led  to  buy  this  planta- 
tion, which  is  operated  by  woolly-headed  man-eat- 
ers. Owing  to  the  death  of  his  partner.  Sheldon  is 
let!  to  the  mercy  of  these  cannibals  and  it  is  only 
by  his  assuming  a  vast  amount  of  courage  that  he 
is  able  to  hold  them  in  abeyance.  At  a  critical  mo- 
ment, when  he  is  sick  almost  unto  death,  a  ship- 
w  reeked  woman.  Joan  Lackland,  comes  to  his 
cue,  and  so  from  this  time  on  the  reader  is  made  to 
see  the  application  of  the  title  of  the  book,  for  the 
heroine  is  fully  capable  of  meeting  all  situations. 
She  is  the  type  of  young  womanhood  one  likes  to 
think  about,  even  though  the  reader  may  not  en- 
dorse  all   that  she  does. 

A  love  story,  interesting  for  a  time,  is  made  pos- 
sible by  the  arrival  of  another  man  on  the  island, 
but  the  strength  of  the  story  lies  in  the  excellent 
portrayal  of  conditions  to  be  found  in  these  far- 
away  cannibal  isles. 

"The  Cruise  of  the  Snark,"  London's  latest 
book,  will  appear  early  in  July. 


A    SENATOR    OF    THE    FIFTIES. 

David  C.  Broderick,  who  was  killed  by  David  S. 
Terry  in  a  duel  in  1859,  is  the  senator  of  whom 
Jeremiah  Lynch  writes  in  his  late  book,  "A  Sena- 
tor of  the   Fifties." 

This  book  is  a  valuable  addition   to   California's

there  been  a  citizen  who  has  borne  public  relations, 
-  sinless  in  all  respects  than  he.     v  As 

in    life,   no   other   voice  among  us  rung   its   trumpet

until  truth  and  valor  cease  to  appeal  to  the  human 
heart. 

"A  Senator  of  the  Fifties"  is  a  book  which 
should  be  in  every  school  library  of  our  State.  Our 
children  should  know  of  the  deeds,  and  reverence 
the  memory  of  one  who  fought  so  valiantly  for  the 
upbuilding  of  our  State. 

STAR  WATCH. 
(By   Katherine    Fall   Pettej 
A    lazy   line    of    foothills   leaning   back   against    the 

sky  ; 
Snowy    clouds    all    edged    with    gold    are    swimming 

slowly   by. 
Streams  of  amber  sunshine  lave  the  desert's  tawny 

breast — 
A  brilliant  lizard  flashes  home — 'tis  evening  in  the 

West. 
Along   the   sandy   washes,   where  the   water   willows 

sway. 
The  birds  are   voicing  roll   call — 'tis  the  closing  of 

the  day. 
The    silent    gates   of   evening    block    the    stream--    of 

golden  sun — 
The  velvet  throne  of  night  awaits — and  star  watch 

has  begun.

SANTA   ROSA   ARRANGING 

FOR  ADMISSION  DAY  GUESTS. 

The  Admission  Bay  celebration  for  this  year  hav- 
ing been  awarded  bv  the  recent  N.  S.  G.  W.  Grand 
Parlor  to  Santa  Rosa,  Santa  Rosa  Parlor,  No.  2S, 
N.S.G.W.,  is  getting  things  in  shape  to  provide 
man}  attractive  features  for  the  thousands  of  mem 
hers  of  the  Order  who  will  be  in  attendance  to 
fittingly  celebrate  the  State's  natal  day. 

Special  committees  of  Santa  Rosa  Parlor  have 
been  doing  considerable  preliminary  work,  such  as 
locating  and  securing  all  available  halls  for  head 
quarters  of  the  various  Parlors,  and  aecommoda- 
tions  for  the  visitors.  A  finance  committee  has  se- 
cured a  very  flattering  list  of  subscriptions,  which 
assures  the  success  of  the  celebration,  beyond  a 
quesl  ion. 

J.  C.  Smith.  Grand  Marshal  of  the  N.S.G.W., 
will  have  charge  of  the  Admission  Day  parade,  and 
committees  will  soon  be  in  cha  rge  of  the  various 
details  of  the  celebration. 


THE   OLD  CARRETA. 

Once  you  rocked  your  way 

A  long  gone  mission  day. 

Sometimes   piled   with    hides   and   tallow, 


Fording  streams  and  washes  shallow 
Through  a  western  solitude 
Where  a  wilderness  did  brood 
Over   routes  obscure   and  lonely 
Haunted  by  red  demons  only. 
Or  perhaps  you  paused  in  light 
Of  the  dog-star's  mellowed  light 
Watching  senoritas  pass 
From  your  stronghold  to  the   mass. 

Every  dawning  morrow 
Brings   to   you   a   silent    sorrow 

And  a  spell  that  ever  binds 
Vour    heart   to   mission    chimes — 
And   all   the  lovely  things 
Their  memory  ever  brings — 
But  still  this  mad  desire 
Consuming  you  like  fire, 
For    shadowy,    unbroken — 
With  accents  softly  spoken 
Are  spirits  of  days  dead 
Resting  in  your  bed.

:MTERT AHMED  AT  SANTA  CEU^ 


ANY  ENTERTAINMENT  FEA- 
tures  were  provided  for  the  delegates 
to  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters Grand  Parlors,  while  in  Santa 
Cruz  the  week  of  June  12th.  The 
local  entertainment  committees  pro- 
vided some  of  the  features,  while 
members  of  the  Order  planned 
others.  All  were  greatly  enjoyed,  as 
they  broke  the  monotony  incident  to 
the  work  which  the  delegates  had 
been  called  together  to  transact  in 
behalf  of  their  respective  Orders.  The  members  of 
both  Grand  Parlors  were  presented  with  suitable 
badges  which  will  serve,  in  future,  to  remind  them 
of  their  pleasant  visit  to  Santa  Cruz  in  1911. 
Guests  of  James  D.  Phelan. 
From  4  to  6  o  'clock  Tuesday  afternoon,  James 
D.   Phelan   of  San   Francisco,  a   member   of  Pacific 


ception,  and  Mayor  T.  W.  Drullard  extended  the 
city's  welcome.  Grand  President  Mamie  G.  Pey- 
ton responded  on  behalf  of  the  Native  Daughters, 
and  Grand  President  Daniel  A.  Ryan,  on  behalf 
of  the  Native  Sons.  Dancing  followed  until  after 
midnight. 

Excursion   to  Big  Trees. 

At  9:45  Wednesday  morning,  all  the  delegates, 
as  guests  of  the  Santa  Cruz  Parlors  of  Native  Sons 
and  Native  Daughters,  boarded  special  trains  that 
conveyed  them  to  the  Santa  Cruz  Mountains  where, 
in  the  shade  of  the  mighty  redwoods,  a  picnic  was 
held.  Arrived  at  the  Big  Tree  Grove,  the  excur- 
sionists proceeded  to  view  the  forest  giants,  and 
at  noon  eaeh  guest  was  given  a  basket  lunch  and 
cup  of  coffee.  The  delegates  then  gathered  in 
friendly  groups  and  proceeded  to  enjoy  the  eon- 
tents  of  the  caskets.     And  they  were  well  satisfied,

at  his  delightful  country  home  that  stands  on  a 
cliff  overlooking  Monterey  Bay,  at  Santa  Cruz. 
Mr.  Phelan  provided  autos  and  carryalls  to  convey 
his  guests  to  and  from  Phelan  Park,  and  was  on 
hand  to  greet  and  welcome  each  delegate.  A  band 
provided  music  and  under  a  shading  tree,  a  corps

ing. Winding  walks  lead  through  large  and  ex- 
pansive stretches  of  green  lawns,  bordered  with 
choice  flowers  and  shrubbery,  while  now  and  then, 
in  well-chosen  spots,  are  pieces  of  statuary  which 
add  a  classic  aspect  to  the  surroundings.  The  sum- 
mer cottages  are  clad  with  rare  selections  of  climb- 
ing vines,  and  fronting  them  are  the  blue  and 
shimmering  waters  of  Monterey  Bay.  Skirting  the 
confines  of  these  waters  are  mountains  rising  first 
in  foothills  and  then  to  towering  peaks,  from  Loma 
Prieta  to  the  San  Gabriel  range,  on  the  Monterey 
si  dp. 

Grand  Ball  and  Reception. 
As  if  to  have  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters become  better  acquainted,  the  local  committees 
prepared  a  grand  ball  and  reception  for  the  even- 
ing of  Tuesday,  which  was  attended  by  the  largest 
crowd  that  ever  assembled  in  the  Casino  Audi- 
torium. In  fact,  the  guests  numbered  so  many  that 
dancing  was  indulged  in  with  difficulty.  P.G.P. 
Stella  Finkeldey  of  Santa  Cruz  presided  at  the  re- 


for  the  lunch  was  not  only  abundant  in  quantity 
but  excellent  in  quality. 

Following  lunch,  all  assembled  around  the  danc- 
ing platform,  where  interesting  speeches  were 
listened  to  from  Junior  Past  Grand  President  J. 
R.  Knowland  of  Alameda,  Grand  President  Daniel 
A.  Ryan  of  San  Francisco,  Past  Grand  President 
Maurice  T.  Dooling  of  San  Benito,  Grand  President 
Mamie  Peyton  of  Stockton,  Mrs.  Higgins  of  Santa 
Cruz,  Grand  Trustee  Anna  Dempsey  of  Los  Angeles 
and  P.G.P.  Ema  Gett  of  Sacramento.  The  ex- 
cursion train  returned  to  Santa  Cruz  at  5  p.  m. 
Lecture  on  California  History. 

Wednesday  evening  at  8  o  'clock,  many  delegates 
attended  a  leeture  on  early  California  history,  ar- 
ranged for  ny  the  Past  Presidents  Association,  N.S. 
G.  W.,  of  San  Francisco.  Dan  Q.  Troy  presided,  and 
introduced  as  the  evening's  entertainer  George 
Wharton  James  of  Pasadena,  who  has  made  a  care- 
ful and  comprehensive  study  of  California's  early 
history,  and  has  written  several  books  and  news- 
paper and  magazine  articles  on  the  subject.  The 
speaker  was  well  received,  and  held  the  close  at- 
tention of  his  audience  throughout  the  evening. 

Mr.  James  spoke  of  the  early  history  of  Califor- 
nia, its  Pioneers  and  its  writers,  and  combined  all 
into  a  very  interesting  story.  He  said  California 
had  more  to  inspire  a  writer  than  any  other  State, 
and  in  this  connection  he  mentioned  those  who  had 
made  California  prominent  in  the  literary  world. 
Reception  to  Noted  Pioneers. 

Thursday  afternoon,  from  4  to  6,  Santa  Cruz 
Parlor  of  Native  Daughters  gave  a  reception  to 
Mrs.  Patty  Reed  Lewis  of  Capitola  and  Mrs.  Vir- 


ginia Reed  Murphy  of  San  Jose,  both  members  of 
the  Reed-Donner  Party  of  Pioneers,  and  daughters 
of  James  Frazier  Reed,  one  of  the  State's  earliest 
Pioneers.  The  reception  was  held  in  Haekley  Hall, 
and  the  guests  of  honor  were  royally  received. 
During  the  reception,  the  members  of  Santa  Cruz 
Parlor    served   refreshments. 

Mrs.  Lewis  entertained  those  assembled  with  an 
interesting  account  of  her  early-day  experiences, 
and  exhibited  many  relics  of  the  historic  past  that 
aroused  the  interest  of  all  present.  Mrs.  Reed  is 
a  delightful  talker,  and  impresses  one  with  the 
truth  of  what  she  relates.  She  was  but  8  years  old 
when  she  arrived  in  California  in  1846  as  a  member 
of  the  famous  Reed-Donner  Party,  and  is  a  human 
encyclopedia  of  the  events  that  transpired  during 
that  party's  trip  to  California,  as  well  as  of  other 
historic  events  in  the  days  immediately  preceding 
and  following  California's  admission  to  the  Union. 
Banquet  for  Native  Sons. 

At  the  adjournment  of  the  N.S.G.W.  Grand  Par- 
lor, -xUirsday  evening,  the  -rand  Officers,  delegates 
and  members  of  Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  N.  S.  G.  W., 
were  guests  of  the  latter  at  an  excellent  banquet 
served  in  the  Casino.  Carl  0.  Kratzenstein  of 
Santa  Cruz  Parlor  made  a  pleasing  toastmaster,  and 
after  the  inner-man  of  the  banqueters  had  been 
satisfied,  introduced  the  following  speakers,  who 
responded  to  these  toasts:  "United  States,"  P. 
G.  P.  Joseph  R.  Knowland;  "Our  State,"  P.G.P. 
Charles  E.  McLaughlin;  "Our  Order,"  Jr.  P.G.P. 
Daniel  A.  Ryan;  "Panama  Pacific  Exposition," 
Grand  irustee  John  F.  Davis;  "Past  Grand  Offi- 
cers," P.G.P.  Frank  L.  Coombs;  "Grand  Parlor," 
Grand  President  Herman  C.  Lichtenberger;  "Santa 
Cruz  x-arlor,"  P.G.P.  Frank  Mattison;  "Native 
Sons  Home,"  P.G.P.  Charles  M.  Belshaw.  After 
repeated  demands,  Mr.  Belshaw,  at  the  close  of  his 
address,  sang  that  famous  ballad,  "Buck  Billy 
tjoat, "  in   his  inimitable  way. 

Grand  President  Lichtenbeiger,  at  the  conclusion 
of  his  remarks,  presented  Jr.  P.G.P.  Daniel  A. 
Ryan  with  a  handsome  emblematic  baoge.  Air. 
Ryan,  "our  Dan,"  was  received  with  tumultous  ax> 
plause,  while  all  the  speakers  were  greeted  with, 
"For  He's  a  Jolly  Good  Fellow."  In  his  address, 
the  Grand  President  bespoke  the  support  of  all  mem- 
bers of  the  Order  throughout  the  State  in  building 
up  the  fraternity,  and  asked  that  they  pay  spe- 
cial hoed  outside  their  respective  Parlors,  as  well  as 
in  the  meetings,  to  those  things  for  which  the  Order 
stands  and  to  which  the  Grand  Parlor,  through  reso- 
lution, has  given  its  special  endorsement. 


GRAND  PRESIDENT  IS  GUEST 

OF  HONOR  AT  PARLOR'S  BANQUET. 

Grand  President  H.  C.  Lichtenberger  was  given 
a  rousing  reception  at  Hepburn  &  Terry's,  Redondo 
Beach,  Saturday  evening,  June  24th,  on  the  dual 
occasion  of  Ramona  Parlor,  No.  109,  N.  S.  G.  W. 's 
twenty-fourth  annual  banquet  and  its  reception  to 
one  of  its  number  who  has  been  elevated  to  the 
head  of  the  Order.  The  banquet  table  was  in  the 
shape  of  the  map  of  California,  and  was  arranged 
by  A.  E.  Eckstrom.  It  was  beautifully  decorated  in 
golden-colored  flowers  and  Bear  flags,  while  at  each 
plate  was  a  small  Bear  flag  as  a  favor.  Every  his- 
toric spot  in  California  was  marked  on  the  table, 
while  El  Camino  Real  was  outlined  with  small  Mis- 
sion Bell  sign-posts.  Even  the  Owens  River  aque- 
duct, that  will  convey  water  to  Los  Angeles,  was 
cleverly  pictured  on  the  table  cover.  Every  city  in 
the  State  that  boasts  a  Native  Sons  Parlor  was 
indicated  in  its  proper  geographical  place  on  the 
table-map  by  a  card  bearing  its  name,  while  minia- 
ture boats  were  afloat  in  San  Franciseo  Bay,  at 
which  location  the  toastmaster,  guest  of  honor  and 
speakers  were  given  seats  at  the  banquet-board. 

Invitations  were  sent  to  all  Grand  Officers  and 
Past  Grand  Presidents,  all  of  whom,  being  unable 
to  appear  in  person,  sent  regrets  in  the  shape  of 
letters  or  telegrams,  which  were  read  amid  great 
applause.  Over  200  members  of  the  Order  were 
seated  at  the  banquet  table  and  enjoyed  the  excel- 
lent menu,  and  listened  with  pleasure  to  the  several 
toasts. 

Harry  G.  Folsom,  president  of  Ramona  Parlor, 
presided  as  toastmaster,  and  the  following  re- 
sponded to  toasts:  "California  Pioneers,"  Frank 
G.  Tyrell;  "Our  Honored  Guest,  a  Calif ornian," 
Fred  A.  Stephenson;  "California's  Order,  the  Na- 
tive Sons  of  the  Golden  West,"  Grand  President 
H.  C.  Lichtenberger;  ' ' California's  Great  Men, ' ' 
W.  J.  Hunsaker. 

At  the  close  of  the  toasts,  all  arose  and  gave  three 
rousing  cheers  for  Ramona  Parlor  and  the  Grand 
President.  During  the  evening,  silent  toasts  were 
drunk  to  the  memory  of  Stephen  M.  White,  J.  N.  O. 
Rech  and  Frank  Sabichi,  honored  and  active  mem- 
bers of  Ramona  Parlor  who  have  passed  to  the 
great  beyond. 


The    average    boy   thinks   better    of    the    cuff   on 
his  sleeve  than   of  the  one   his  teacher  gives  him.

N.D.G.  W.GRAND  PARLOR  ACCOMPLI 


Hi:  l  LOCK  IN  THE  BELL-TOWEB 
of  the  Santa  Cruz  County  Court 
Souse  registered  4:30  Sunday  morn 
ins  ore  tin*  Grand  Presidents  gavel 
fell  "ii  the  sine  die  adjournment  of 
the  Twenty-fifth  Grand  Parlor  of  the 
Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West.  The  Grand  Parlor  had  been 
in  Bession  continually— excepting  an 
hour  for  lunch  and  an  hour  for  sup 
per — since  8  o'clock  Saturday  morn 
ing. 

lav's  meeting  was  unreasonably  long,  but 
even  with  these  prolonged  and  wearying  sessions, 
the  work  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  at  least  insofar  as 
the  consideration  of  all  the  recommendations  of 
the  Grand  President  went,  was  not  completed  when 
the  final  adjournmenl   was  taken. 

The  question  as  to  "Who  discharged  that  fire- 
cracker F"  had  not  been  satisfactorily  answered, 
either,  and   will   no  doubt  be  the  theme  for  several

days'  discussion  at  the  1912  Grand  Parlor  which, 
although  awarded  to  Fresno  on  the  official  ballot, 
was  finally  given  to  San  Francisco.  But  the  fire- 
cracker story — it  added  a  bit  of  levity  to  an  other- 
wise extremely  inharmonious  meeting.  At  about 
2  a.  in.  Sunday,  a  Past  Grand  President  had  the 
floor,  telling  the  delegates  why  they  should  sup- 
port a  resolution  that  aimed  to  require  each  Subor- 
dinate Parlor,  at  every  meeting,  to  devote  five 
minutes  to  silent  prayer—perhaps  in  the  hope  of 
getting  the  dove  of  harmony  to  guide  future  Grand 
Parlors.  Be  that  as  it  may.  however,  when  the 
speaker  had  just  about  reached  the  pinnacle  of  her 
oratorical  efforts,  an  explosion  shook  the  meeting 
place,  awakened  the  delegates,  and  caused  feminine 
confusion.  An  examination  to  ascertain  the  '-an st- 
and the  culprit,  revealed  t  he  smoking  remains  of 
a  firecracker,  but  the  guilty  party's  name  is  still  a 
mystery — -at    least    to    the    official    Grand    Parlor. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  was  readopted  as  t lie  official 
organ  of  the  Order,  and  as  such  would  enjoy  giv- 
ing   to    its    readers    a    complete    synopsis    of    what    the 

Grand  Parlor  accomplished,  but  owing  to  the  policy 
of  the  Grand  President,  who  was  and  is  opposed 
to  publicity  for  the  Order  except  that  which  is 
censored  by  the  Grand  President,  we  are  enabled  to 
relate  just  those  things  which  casually  came  to  our 
attention,   including  the  firecracker  story. 

The  Trunk  Mystery. 
Grand  President  Mamie  G.  Peyton  of  Stockton 
called  the  < rrand  Parlor  to  order,  but  little  was 
dune  owing  to  a  trunk  mystery.  For  some  reason, 
the  trunk  of  Grand  Secretary  Laura  J.  Prakes,  con 
taiuing  all  the  papers  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  etc., 
was  taken  to  Santa  Barbara,  and  so  only  informal 
business  was  transacted  until  it  was  returned.  Dur- 
ing the  interim,  the  local  Native  Daughters  served 
ice-cream  and  cake,  and  Miss  Alice  Witney  de- 
livered a  welcoming  speech  to  which  Mrs.  Peyton 
responded  P.G.P.  Carrie  Koesch  Durham  of  Stock 
ton,  who  has  attended  every  one  of  the  twenty  five 
Grand  Parlors,  was  presented  with  a  handsome  case 
of    silver,    in    token    of    the    Grand    Parlor 's    silver 


an ii i versa ry,     Each   Past   g rand   Presidenl    was    pre

Historic  Landmarks. 

The  report  of  the  Committee  on  State  of  the 
Order  consumed  a  great  deal  of  time  in  considera- 
tion, as  every  recommendation  of  every  report  was 
considered  separately,  and  involved  a  detailed  ex 
pression  of  many  differences  of  opinion.

WHEREHM  A  FEW  PLAIM  WORDS,  CHARITABLY  WRHTTER  SHOULD  MOT  GO  AMISS 


•  ■  What  is  to  become  of  the  Order  of  Native 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  if  the  very  marked. 
Internal  dissension  continues,'"  is  the  question  that 
is  uppermost  in  the  minds  of  those  members  of  the 
fraternity  who  want  to  see  the  Order  progress.  This 
dissension  is  apparent  to  all  who  come  in  contact 
with  the  Grand  Parlor  sessions,  and  at  the  recent 
Santa  Cruz  session  was  the  foundation  upon  which 
the  daily  press  of  Santa  Cruz  and  San  Francisco 
based  decidedly  unfavorable,  but  at  the  same  time 
well  deserved,  comment. 

Asked  as  to  what  was  accomplished  at  the  Grand 
Parlor  session,  the  delegates  almost  unanimously 
answer  ''NOTHING,"  and  many  go  even  fur- 
ther and,  in  expressing  their  disgust  at  the  time 
consumed  in  wrangling  between  the  factions,  say 
they  never  asrain  will  attend  a  Grand  Parlor  ses- 
sion— or,  at  least,  will  not  consent  to  having  their 
names  enrolled  as  delegates  unless  the  Grand  Par- 
lor devotes  some  of  its  time  to  a  consideration  of 
those  things  for  which  it  is  really  assembled. 

To  be  perfectly  frank,  the  trouble  in  the  Native 
Daughters  Grand  Parlor  is  that  nearly  all  Past  Grand 
Presidents  are  about  equally  divided  into  two  fac- 
tions, who  annually  gather  to  renew  old  difficulties, 
and  who  apparently  devote  their  time  between  the 
sessions  in  an  endeavor  to  rake  up  matters  that 
will  tend  to  east  discredit  upon  their  opposing 
faction.  The  delegates  from  the  Subordinate  Par- 
lors— the  life  and  sinew  of  the  Order — are  not  recog- 
nized, the  time  of  the  sessions  being  given  up  to 
the  Past  Grands,  every  one  of  whom  must  speak 
upon  every  question,  no  matter  how  grave  it  is,  or 
how  little  she  knows  about  the  point  at  issue.  As 
one  delegate  at  Santa  Cruz  aptly  put  it:  "The  main 
purpose  of  the  Grand  Parlor  is  to  see  how  often  the 
Past  Grands  can  get  their  names  in  the  proceed- 
ings. » ' 

It  is  high  time  that  those  who  are  really  interested 
in  the  Order  of  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West  should  take  the  Grand  Parlor  sessions  out  of 
the  control  of  the  Past  Grands  and  hold  the  govern- 
mental reins  themselves.  Indeed,  it  is  known  by 
every  delegate  who  has  attended  recent  Grand  Par- 
lor sessions,  that  such  action  is  immediately  neces- 
sary, for  the  ship  of  the  Order  is  now  sailing  in  a 
dangerous    course,    bound    straight    ahead    at    full 


speed  for  the  Rock  of  Dissolution,  and  unless  that 
course  is  promptly  changed  and  different  methods 
adopted  for  the  ship's  future  guidance,  the  Order 
will  at  an  early  date  go  to  pieces  through  dissen- 
sion. 

It  is  unjust  to  the  several  Subordinate  Parlors 
to  yearly  tax  them  to  pay  the  expenses  and  mileage 
incident  to  Grand  Parlors,  when  the  sessions  barely 
consider  their  needs.  If  each  annual  gathering  is 
to  be  devoted  almost  entirely  to  a  renewal  of  fac- 
tional difficulties,  as  has  been  the  case  at  recent 
Grand  Parlors,  why  not  make  the  Grand  Parlor  what 
it  really  has  become,  a  "college'''  of  Past  Grands, 
and  thereby  materially  reduce  the  per  capita  tax, 
as  only  mileage  for  about  twenty-five  would  then 
be  neeessary,  whereas  at  present  the  Subordinate 
Parlors  are  taxed  for  the  mileage  of  nearly  300 
delegates.  The  Subordinate  Parlors  should  stand 
upon  their  great  American  privilege,  and  refuse  to 
be  further  taxed  unless  their  delegates  are  allowed 
a  hearing. 

Considering  that  NOTHING  was  accomplished  by 
the  Grand  Parlor  at  Santa  Cruz,  the  record  for  time 
consumed  in  doing  it  is  a  disgrace  to  the  Order,  and 
casts  a  decidedly  unfavorable  light  upon  those  re- 
sponsible for  it.  The  delegates  were  kept  in  almost 
continuous  session,  being  given  barely  time  for 
meals,  and  the  last  session  continued  until  4:30 
Sunday  morning.  And  in  all  that  time  absolutely 
NOTHING  was  accomplished  for  the  good  of  the 
Order.  It  is  true,  many  Past  Grands  were  very  much 
in  evidence,  but  the  delegates  wearied  of  daily  hear- 
ing a  heated  discussion  because  Past  Grand  Presi- 
dent Sister  Scrapper  had  her  name  in  the  previous 
day's  proceedings  oftener  than  did  Past  Grand  Presi- 
dent Sister  Wrangle. 

No  wonder  the  Grand  President  at  Santa  Cruz 
recommended  that  no  account  of  the  proceedings  be 
made  public,  except  under  signature  of  the  Grand 
President,  for  it  will  unquestionably  be  agreed  that 
had  all  the  wrangling  at  Santa  Cruz  been  put  in 
the  daily  press  it  would  have  lost  thousands  of  mem 
bers  to  the  Order.  We  trust,  however,  that  the  re- 
jection of  that  recommendation  does  not  forecast 
continued  factionalism  and  its  attendant  wrangling. 

The  Order  of  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West    is    founded    upon    principles    which    have    en- 


listed, and  will  continue  to  enlist  the  hearty  supx»ort 
of  eligibles.  A  great  percentage  of  its  membership 
is  made  up  of  the  best  women  of  California,  who 
want  to  do  their  share  in  carrying  out  those  ideals 
for  which  the  ritual  of  the  Order  stands.  But  many 
of  these,  having  attended  recent  Grand  Parlor  ses- 
sions, have  become  thoroughly  disgusted  with  the 
proceedings  there  witnessed,  and  have  departed  for 
their  homes  worn  and  weary,  and  with  less  love 
for  their  Order.  There  are  also  many  of  the  bright- 
est minds  in  California  represented  among  the  Past 
Grand  Presidents,  and  it  is  a  shame  that,  instead  of 
trying  to  uplift  the  Order  and  place  it  in  the  posi- 
tion it  should  occupy  and  is  entitled  to  among  the 
fraternal  societies  of  the  State,  they  almost  to  a 
woman  devote  their  time  and  talents  to  keeping  old 
sores  unhealed  and  in  promoting  inharmony  and  dis- 
sension. 

We  feel  that,  being  interested  in  the  Order  of 
Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  and  fully 
appreciating  and  endorsing  all  the  commendable 
work  it  has  accomplished,  and  will  continue  to  per- 
form if  given  a  just  opportunity,  that  it  is  neces- 
sary that  the  truth  regarding  Grand  Parlor  affairs 
should  be  made  known  to  those  who  are  in  the  fra- 
ternity for  its  best  interests.  We  know  that  those 
Grand  Parlor  attendants  who  have  been  personal 
witnesses  to  what  has  occurred  will  appreciate  and 
give  their  approval  to  what  is  here  set  forth.  We 
have  no  desire  to  belittle  the  Order,  or  any  of  its 
members,  but  feel  that  we  would  be  doing  the  Order, 
as  well  as  ourselves,  an  injustice  to  let  continue  un- 
heeded those  things  which  are  certain  to  wreck  the 
organization. 

These  are  plain  words,  but  the  time  has  arrived 
when,  if  the  Order  is  to  be  perpetuated,  the  cover 
of  secrecy  must  be  torn  aside  and  real  conditions 
exposed  to  the  great  majority  of  members  who 
know  little  of  what  actually  transpires  at  Grand 
Parlor  sessions.  This  comment  may  not  be  well  re- 
ceived in  certain  quarters,  but  we  believe  it  will 
be  fully  appreciated  by  those  to  whom  the  Order 
owes  its  past  successes  and  to  whom  it  must  look 
for  further  advancement.  If  what  is  here,  with  the 
best  of  intent,  set  forth  shall  serve  to  put  the  Grand 
Parlor  in  the  course  it  should  rightfully  follow,  then 
we  shall  be  fully  repaid,  and  will  gladly  bear  the 
brunt  of  any  unfavorable  comment  that  may  follow. 


Every  member  of  the  Order  of  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  W7est  should  feel  proud  of  the  record 
made  by  that  Order  at  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor. 
Not  only  were  the  needs  of  the  Subordinate  Parlors 
carefully  looked  after,  but,  as  well,  attention  was 
given  those  things  which  tend  to  the  advancement 
of   California. 

At  no  other  Grand  Parlor  session  has  so  much 
careful  consideration  been  given  to  the  preservation 
of  our  State's  early  history  and  landmarks,  and  the 
Order  has  gone  on  record  as  favoring  not  alone 
moral,  but  financial  support  to  aid  in  this  work. 

The  proceedings  of  the  Thirty-fourth  Grand  Par- 
lor, as  fully  set  forth  in  this  issue,  make  up  an 
unanswerable  argument  as  to  why  every  native 
Californian  should  affiliate  with  the  Order.  Every 
act  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  as  it  relates  to  the  quasi- 
public  question  of  preserving  the  State's  early  his- 
tory and  landmarks,  is  to  be  commended,  and 
proves  conclusively  that  the  Order  has  laid  aside 
its  childhood  clothes  and  has  entered  upon  the 
career  mapped  out  for  it,  and  by  following  which 
nothing  but  success  can  accrue.

Many  of  the  State  papers  have  become  sadly 
mixed  as  to  where  the  1912  Grand  Parlors  will  be 
held,  even  a  Fresno  paper  stating  that  that  city 
had  not  secured  the  N.S.G.W7.  meeting.  For  the 
benefit  of  the  press  generally,  and  others,  there- 
fore, this  information  is  set  forth:  The  1912  N.S. 
G.W.  Grand  Parlor  will  meet  at  Fresno  the  fourth 
Monday  in  April;  the  1912  N.D.G.W\  Grand  Par- 
lor will  meet  at  San  Francisco  the  second  Tuesday 
in  June. 

Those  who  heard  the  masterly  address  of  Judge 
Maurice  T.  Dooling,  P.G.P.,  of  Hollister,  during  the 


exercises  at  the  Big  Tree  Grove  in  connection  with 
the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor,  will  be  overjoyed  to 
know  that  The  Grizzly  Bear  has  arranged  to  pub- 
lish the  full  text  of  the  same-  in  the  August  issue. 
Whenever  Judge  Dooling  speaks,  he  commands  at- 
tention and  his  words  carry  great  weight.  His  lat- 
est effort,  however,  was  generally  conceded  to  be 
the  greatest  address  ever  delivered  by  this  eminent 
jurist  and  scholar,  who  is  beloved  by  every  Native

Son  for  his  sterling  qualities.  Many  delegates  re- 
quested that  Judge  Dooling  *s  Santa  Cruz  address  be 
published,  and  thereby  preserved,  and  we  are  glad 
to  say  that  these  requests  will  be  complied  with 
with   pleasure.

Had  the  sane  Fourth  been  put  into  effect  when 
many  of  our  present  men  and  women  were  young- 
sters, we'll  bet  a  red-head  that  young  America 
would  not  now  be  compelled,  by  ordinance,  to  cele- 
brate the  great  National  Holiday  sans  bombs,  sans 
double-headed  dutchmen,  and  sans  every  other 
noise-producer.

The  proposition  advanced  by  the  Monterey 
County  Chamber  of  Commerce,  to  have  that  portion 
of  the  proposed  $18,000,000  State  highway  from  San 
Francisco  to  San  Diego  follow  old  El  Camino  Real, 
is  an  excellent  one  and,  we  trust,  will  receive  the 
favorable  consideration  of  the  State  Highway  Com- 
mission.

The  eight-hour  workday  for  women  is  an  excel- 
lent statute  and  should  have  been  invoked  in  be- 
half of  the  suffering  delegates  to  the  Santa  Cruz 
N.D.G.W.  Grand  Parlor.  When  women  themselves 
violate  laws  made  in  their  behalf,  how  can  they 
expect   mere   man   to   obey   them? 

"  The  class  motto  adopted  by  the  Santa  Rosa  High 
School  graduates — "Be  not  simply  good;  be  good 
for  something" — is  one  which  should  be  their  guid- 
ing star  through  life.  And  it  is  a  motto,  also, 
which  all  of  us  might  adopt  and  put  into  actual 
practice.

i  i.xi  of  :i  roster  of  the  Pioneers  of  California.  The 
work  done  rims  far  by  the  committee  has  been  con

THANKS   EXTENDED   TO   THE 

PRESS  AND  CITIZENS  OF  SANTA  CRUZ. 
By  a  unanimous  rising  vote,  the  thanks  of  the 
Grand  Parlor  were  extended  to  the  officers,  mem- 
bers and  committee  of  arrangements  of  Santa  Cruz 
['arlor,  Xo.  Jin,  X.S.G.W.,  to  the  officers  and  mem- 
bers of  Santa  Cruz  Parlor,  No.  26,  N.D.G.W.,  to  the 
citizens  of  the  city  of  Santa  Cruz,  and  to  the  press 
of  Santa  Cruz  for  courtesies  shown  to  the  members

tion on  May  31st,  from  6  to  9  p.m.,  at  the  home  of 
Mrs.  Abby  Carmichael.  As  the  hostess  was  soon  to 
become  a  bride,  she  was  given  a  linen  shower  and 
received  many  beautiful  tokens  of  the  esteem  in 
which  she  is  held  by  all.  An  impromptu  program 
was  rendered  during  the  evening.  The  Parlor 
colors,  white  and  gold,  were  carried  out,  both  in  the 
decorations  and  in  the  dainty  refreshments  which 
were  served  on  the  lawn.  Bouquets  of  poppies

GRAND  PRESIDENT'S  RECOM- 
MENDATIONS NOT  WELL  RECEIVED. 

A  considerable  part  of  the  session  was  taken  up 
in  reading,  by  the  Grand  President  herself,  of  her 
recommendations,  and  their  consideration  by  the 
Grand  Parlor.  Each  recommendation,  as  it  came 
up  for  discussion,  was  warmly  debated  and  at  times 
the  feeling  between  the  Grand  .Parlor  factions  was 
at  high  tide.  The  recommendations  were  not  printed 
in  the  advance  proceedings,  Mrs.  Peyton  evidently 
fearing  their  publicity  would  not  be  to  the  Order  's 
best  interests,  but  a  few  "leaks"  revealed  to  pub- 
lic gaze  some  of  her  pet  measures,  and  still  other 
"leaks"  disclosed  the  action  thereon.-  It  may  be. 
however,  that  the  Grand  President  gave  out  the 
information  herself,  for  the  matters  below  men- 
tioned were  fully  discussed  in  the  daily  press: 

The  recommendation  that  the  name  of  P .  G .  P. 
Ella  Caminetti  of  Jackson  be  hereafter  eliminated 
from  the  "Caminetti  Death  Benefit  Fund"  was  re- 
jected by  the  delegates,  and  the  fund  will  continue 
under  its  original  name. 

The  recommendation  that  the  $300  annual  ap- 
propriation for  The  Grizzly  Bear  be  not  continued 
was  adopted  by  a  margin  of  17  votes.  (Mrs.  Peyton, 
as  mentioned  heretofore,  does  not  believe  in  pub- 
licity, hence  her  consistent  opposition  to  financial 
support  for  an  official  organ. — Editor.) 


Annie   McCaughey   of    Santa   Barbara, 
Re-elected   Grand  Trustee. 


The  recommendation  that  the  manner  of  forming 
the  1915  Committee  and  the  Homeless  Children's 
Agency  Committee  be  changed  in  such  manner  as 
to  make  it  possible  to  form  new  committees  with 
each  administration,  was  rejected,  and  both  com- 
mittees will  remain  as  constituted  at  the  Santa  Bar- 
bara Grand  Parlor  last  year. 

The  recommendation  that  no  Subordinate  Parlor 
hereafter  appear  in  parade  on  foot,  was  adopted. 

The  recommendation  that  the  Native  Daughters' 
home  in  San  Francisco  be  rehabilitated,  and  that 
the  Parlors  delinquent  in  their  contributions  to  the 
home  be  forced  to  make  up  their  deficit,  did  not 
come  before  the  Grand  Parlor  for  final  consideration, 
owing,  it  is  said,  to  the  strong  opposition  against 
it  from  those  who  claim  that  the  home  never  was 
under  the  control  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  and  that 
since  the  Grand  Parlor  never  had  any  word  in  the 
management,  it  should  not  be  responsible  for  the 
debts  of  the  institution. 


Anna    Dempsey    of    Los    Angeles, 
Re-elected   Grand   Trustee   by   Highest   Vote. 

The  recommendation  providing  that  no  news  mat- 
ter be  made  public,  except  under  signature  of  the 
Grand  President,  was  rejected. 

The  recommendation  that'  all  Subordinate  Par- 
lors of  less  than  twenty  members  should  have  their 
charters  summarily  forfeited,  did  not  come  before 
the  Grand  Parlor  for  action,  the  delegates  evi- 
dencing such  opposition  when  it  was  read  that  it 
was    withdrawn. 


DELEGATES  THANKFUL  TO 

ALL  SANTA  CRUZ  CITIZENS. 

The  Grand  Parlor  unanimously  adopted  the  fol- 
lowing vote  of  thanks,  submitted  by  a  committee 
composed  of  Past  Grand  Presidents  C.  K.  Witten- 
meyer,  Julia  A.  Steinbaeh  and  Ariana  W.  Stirling: 

"The  Grand  President,  and  member  of  the 
Twenty-fifth  Grand  Parlor,  N.  D.  G.  W.,  take  pleas-

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


July,    191 


NDER  THE  AUSPICES  OF  THE 
Russell  Sage  Foundation,  a  report 
has  been  made  public  in  which  the 
moral  and  intellectual  tone  of  the 
New  York  theaters  is  severely  ar- 
raigned. The  vaudeville  and  bur- 
lesque shows  are  especially  criti- 
cised. Of  the  burlesque  houses, 
five-sixths  are  rated  as  < ' demoral- 
izing" and  one-sixth  ( '  lowering.  " 
Of  the  vaudeville  houses,  three- 
fourths  are  "not  objectionable," 
one-fifth  are  "lowering"  and  only  five  per  cent  are 
' '  of  positive  value. ' '  The  deductions  from  the 
data  set  forth  in  the  report  are  in  part  as  fol- 
lows: "The  most  striking  characteristic  of  vaude- 
ville is  simple  stupidity.  The  burlesque  is  the  most 
undesirable  type  of  show,  although  it  rarely  sinks 
to  the  level  of  immorality  or  suggestiveness  at- 
tained by  occasional  plays  at  high-priced  theaters. 
The  vaudeville  mentality  of  the  ( out-of -towner ' 
and  hotel  dweller  sets  a  standard  above  which  the 
theatrical  manager  cannot  pass  without  endanger- 
ing his  hold  upon  this  sort  of  patronage.  In  a 
word,  the  high-priced  theater  is  not  offering  to 
the  well-to-do  residents  of  New  York  what  that 
clientele  has  a  right  to  demand." 

The  report  gives  the  total  number  of  theaters  in 
Greater  New  York  as  497.  Those  in  Manhattan 
number  275,  of  which  only  thirty  are  rated  as 
"first-class  houses."  The  average  weekly  attend- 
ance at  the  275  theaters  is  1,750,000,  only  160,000 
of  which  represent  visitors  at  the  first-class  houses. 
A  total  of  nearly  $575,000  is  spent  weekly  on  thea- 
ters in  New  York  City. 


New  Los  Angeles  Orpheum  Opens. 

The  handsome  new  $500,000  Orpheum  at  Los  An- 
geles was  opened  to  the  public  the  night  of  June 
26th,  and  here  will  be  found  the  attractions  of  this 
circuit  in  future.  The  new  theater  is  said  to  be 
one  of  the  finest  in  the  country,  and  has  every 
modern  convenience  for  the  pleasure  of  its  patrons. 
The  house  contains  a  spacious  auditorium,  two  bal- 
conies and  thirty-nine  boxes,  with  a  total  seating 
capacity  of  2,000.  Twenty-two  exits  are  provided 
for  use  in  case  of  fire  or  panic,  and  an  entrance 
separate  from  the  main  lobby  is  provided  for  bal- 
cony  patrons. 

The  general  color  scheme  is  a  warm  roseate  old- 
gold  and  ivory,  high-lighted  with  bronze  and  bur- 
nished gold,  which  contrast  most  successfully  with 
the  gendarme  blue  draperies  and  old-rose  centaurs. 
The  lighting  effects  are  novel  and  excellent.  The 
building  is  of  steel  and  concrete,  the  outside  finish- 
ing being  of  terra  cotta,  which  was  made  at  the 
Gladding,  McBean  pottery  in  Lincoln,  Placer 
County.  The  opening  night,  the  seats  in  the  audi- 
torium, loges  and  boxes  were  turned  over  to  the 
Associated  Charities,  and  auctioned  off  at  good 
prices.  Many  society  people  witnessed  the  initial 
performance,  the  house  being  filled  to  capacity. 


Form  Big  Syndicate. 
Klaw  &  Erlanger  have  formed  a  syndicate  of 
theaters  in  the  southern  part  of  the  State,  which 
includes  the  Mason  at  Los  Angeles,  Potter  at 
Santa  Barbara,  Wyatt  at  Redlands,  Loring  at 
Riverside,  Grand  at  San  Bernardino  and  Fraternal 
Aid  at  Pomona.  These  houses  are  owned  or  leased 
by  the  syndicate.  In  addition  to  them,  the  follow- 
ing will  be  booked:  Lagomarsino  at  Ventura, 
Opera  House  at  Oxnard,  Work  at  Monterey,  Pavi- 
lion at  San  Luis  Obispo,  Grand  at  Santa  Ana,  and 
Clune's  at  Pasadena.  "Will  "Wyatt  of  Los  Angeles 
will  be  the  syndicate's  general  manager,  and  E. 
R.  Deming,  Jr.,  secretary  and  treasurer. 


New  Stock  for  Los  Angeles. 
The  Auditorium,  in  Los  Angeles,  is  to  have  a 
stock  company  under  the  management  of  William 
Stoermer,  well-known  in  local  theatrical  circles, 
after  July  10th.  Sedley  Brown  will  be  stage  mana- 
ger, and  Joseph  Galbraith  leading  man,  while  Mar-

jorie  Rambeau  will  be  the  leading  woman.  The 
opening  play  will  be  " California,"  an  adaptation 
of  Luderman's  "The  Fires  of  St.  John."  McKee 
Rankin  stands  sponsor  for  the  English  form  of  the 
play,  and  he  will  appear  in  the  cast  as  the  father. 
Manager  Stoermer  expects  to  change  his  bill 
weekly,  and  at  intervals  purposes  to  stage  big 
dramatic  spectacles. 


Eastern  Notes  With  California  Interest. 

Five  companies  will  dispense  "Madame  Sherry" 
next   season. 

"Gypsy  Love"  is  a  new  Franz  Lehar  opera  for 
next  season. 

It  looks  like  war  between  the  White  Rats  Actors' 
Union  and  the  Vaudeville  Managers'  Protective 
Association. 

Charles  Frohman  returned  to  New  York  from 
London  recentty,  with  many  new  plays  for  fall 
production. 

John  Cort's  first  new  play  for  next  season  will 
be  "Sadie,"  and  it  will  be  produced  in  New  York 
the  latter  part   of  October. 

Sarah  Bernhardt 's  share  of  the  profits  in  her  re- 
cent "farewell"  tour  of  2S5  performances,  was 
$200,000 — enough  for  another  farewell. 

Geo.  M.  Cohan's  comedy,  "Get-Rich  Quick  Wal- 
lingford, ' '  holds  the  season 's  record  for  plays  in 
New  York  City,  as  it  ran  for  forty  consecutive 
weeks,  during  which  31S  performances  were  given. 

"The  follies  of  1911"  had  its  premier  at  Atlanta 
City  recently.  It  is  in  three  acts  and  sixteen  scenes, 
one  of  which  depicts  "Barbary  Coast"  night  life  in 
San  Francisco.  This  latest  revue  of  F.  Ziegfeld, 
Jr.,  will  run  during  the  summer  in  New  York  at  the 
Jardin   de  Paris. 


State  Notes   of  Interest. 

San  Francisco  is  to  have  a  new  half-niilltou-dollar 
theater,  at  Eddy  and  Mason  streets. 

Mrs.  Fiske  will  tour  the  State  in  Harry  James 
Smith's  comedy  "Mrs.  Bumpstead-Leigh, "  this 
month. 

Many  of  the  world's  greatest  musical  artists  have 
been  booked  for  appearance  in  California  nest 
season. 

Rumor  has  it  that  Broadway,  Los  Angeles,  is  to 
have  another  $100,000  vaudeville  theater,  to  seat 
over  2000  people. 

Chas.  Kenyon,  a  San  Francisco  playwright,  has 
written  a  new  play,  "Kindling,"  in  which  Mar- 
garet Illington  will  appear  next  season. 

Ethel  Barrymore,  in  the  double  bill,  "Alice-Sit- 
by-the-Fire"  and  "The  Twelve  Pound  ($60)  Look" 
will  play  the  principal  cities  of  the  State  this  month. 


Empress  Now,   Instead   of  Los  Angeles. 

Another  recent  change  in  the  .Los  Angeles  the- 
atrical world  has  been  the  change  in  the  name  of 
the  Sullivan  &  Considine  "home  of  twentieth  cen- 
tury vaudeville"  to  the  Empress.  The  location  is 
the  same,  and  the  same  unexcelled  quality  of  per- 
formance is  billed  each  week,  as  in  the  past.  The 
house  has  been  supplied  with  the  latest  cooling 
devices,  so  that  it  is  justly  termed  the  coolest  the- 
ater in  Los  Angeles.  "A  Night  in  an  English  Music 
Hall"  headed  the  bill  for  the  week  of  June  26th. 
while  Sadie  Sherman,  "the  American  Maid,"  comi- 
cal juggler  Charles  D.  Webber,  and  Jack  Goldie,  the 
lyrical  lad,  supplied  some  of  the  features  for  an 
excellent  bill. 

The  bill  at  the  Empress  the  week  of  July  3rd 
will  include:  The  Venetian  Gondolier  band,  the 
musical  sensation  of  the  century,  with  Gennaro,  the 
"eccentrique,"  as  the  leader,  and  including  twenty 
musicians,  who  will  present  "A  Night  in  Venice," 
a  musical  treat;  Frank  Graham  and  Edith  Randall, 
in  a  comedy  dramatic  satire,  "A  Gay  Old  Boy;" 
Edward  Barto  and  Florence  Clarke,  "A  little  fun 
on  the  second  floor  back;"  the  Nellos,  in  balancing 
and  juggling  feats;  the  singing  marvel,  Phenomena, 
with  five  distinctly  different  voices;  Frank  and 
Nellie  Ellison,  presenting  "The  Village  Smithy 
Shop,"  a  pretty  musical  classic;  La  Vili,  in  mid-air 
gymnastics;   also,  the  laugh-o-scope. 


Thais  Magrane  to  Return. 
The  Los  Angeles  Belaseo  stage  was  occupied  the 
week  of  June  26th  with  Hartley  Manners'  success- 
ful drama,  "The  House  Next  Door,"  which  had 
not  been  previously  seen  in  Los  Angeles.  Lewis 
S.  Stone  appeared  to  advantage  in  the  role  of  Cots- 


wood,  impoverished  British  nobleman,  and  was  given 
the  usual  excellent  support  of  the  Belaseo  company. 
Mr.  Manners  himself  supervised  the  final  rehearsals 
for  the  play. 

Following  "The  House  Next  Door,"  Lewis  S. 
Stone  and  the  Belaseo  company  will  give  the  first 
production  on  any  stage  of  James  Montgomery's 
new  comedy,  "Ready  Money."  It  is  described  as 
one  laugh  divided  into  three  acts. 

The  announcement  that  Thais  Magrane  is  to  be 
the  Belaseo 's  leading  woman,  commencing  July  10th, 
has  been  received  with  much  pleasure  by  the  pa- 
trons of  that  house.  She  will  choose  one  of  three 
pieces— "The  White  Sister,"  "A  Woman's  Way" 
or  "The  Melting  Pot" — for  her  reappearance. 
Miss  Magrane  needs  no  introduction  to  Los  Angeles 
theateT-goers,  her  past  work  being  of  such  a  high 
character  as  to  assure  success  to  herfself  and  mana- 
gers, and  delight  to  her  audiences. 


Los  Angeles'  New  Amusement  Park. 

Never  was  there  such  a  gathering  of  amusement- 
seekers  as  that  of  June  11th,  at  Luna  Park,  in 
Los  Angeles,  where  there  assembled  considerable 
more  than  30,000  men,  women  and  children  repre- 
senting all  of  the  big  city's  social  sorts.  Such  was 
the  press  of  numbers  long  before  the  scheduled  time 
for  opening  the  gates  of  the  rejuvenated  and 
beautified  pleasure  grounds  that  the  management 
was  compelled  to  give  the  early  crowds  entrance  in 
order  to  prevent  a  mammoth  blockade  of  the  streets. 
And  that  this  vast  army  of  merrymakers  enjoyed 
themselves  was  decidely  apparent.  There  was  noth- 
ing but  words  of  praise  to  be  heard  on  all  sides, 
especially  for  the  numerous  and  expensive  free  at- 
tractions and  entertainments  provided  by  the 
Thompson-Snuw  Amusement  Company,  the  new 
owners  of  Luna  Park. 

Thompson's  $75,000  scenic  railroad — "Nemo's 
Trip  to  Slumberland" — the  largest  and  most  beauti- 
ful of  its  kind  in  the  world,  is  now  in  operation,  as 
also  is  "Shooting  the  Rapids,"  the  latest  of  the 
New  York  Coney  Island  attractions.  The  park  is 
filled  with  amusements,  of  all  sorts,  and  promises  to 
be  the  center  of  attraction  throughout  the  summer 
vacation  season. 


Tracy — This  city  has  voted  $50,000  bonds  for  a 
sewer   system. 

Walnut  Creek— Bonds  of  $20,000  have  been  voted 
for  a  modern   schoolhouse. 

Winters — The  voters  have  authorized  $25,000 
bonds  for  a  complete  sewer  system. 

Sacramento — The  people  of  this  city  have  voted 
$800,000  bonds  for  improved  school  facilities. 

Lindsay — To  acquire  its  own  water  works  and 
build  a  sewer  system,  $130,000  bonds  have  been 
voted. 

Los  Angeles — Bonds  to  the  amount  of  $1,720,000 
have  been  voted  for  new  school  buildings  and 
grounds. 

Sacramento — Governor  Hiram  Johnson  annouuees

EXCELLENT    HISTORICAL   WORK. 

"California    Under    Spain    am]    Mexico/5    is   the 

title   of  a   1 k    by    Irving   Berdine   Richman.   which 

deals  with  the  State's  history  from  1535  to  1847. 
It  is  designed  both  for  the  general  reader  and  for 
tlir  special  student.  Although  Hie  Atlantic  coast 
of  Null  ii  A  merica  lias  been  dealt  with  elaborately 
and  minutely,  llie  Pacific  f'oast,  it  must  be  remem- 
bered, has  been  but  sparingly  ti  niched  upon.  Con- 
sequently the  material  in  this  work  is  large  in 
manuscript  form,  and  the  fact  that  Mr.  Kiehman 
lias  made  exhaustive  researches  in  the  original 
manuscripts  which  are  only  to  be  found  among  the 
archives  of  Spain  at  Madrid  ami  Seville,  and  the 
archives  of  Mexico  at  Mexico  City,  makes  his  wink 
the  first   authoritative   history  of  California. 

The  narrative  begins  with  a  sketch  of  California 
physiography;  then  gives  an  account  of  the  galleon 
trade  on  the  Pacific  Ocean,  with  its  vicissitudes  of 
peril  from  tempests  and  from  war  with  the  Dutch 
and  English.  Chapter  1 1 T  outlines  the  rise  i»t'  the 
institution  of  the  Mission.  Chapter  IV  tells  of 
explorations  by  the  distinguished  Jesuit,  Eusebio 
Francisco  Kino.  Chapter  V  presents  from  an  en- 
tirely different  viewpoint  the  expedition  of  Jose 
de  lialvez  in  1769,  known  as  the  Portola  Expedi 
tion.  Chapter  VI  deals  with  the  great  expeditions 
of  Juan  Bautista  de  Anza  in  1774  and  1775-76, 
which  resulted  in  the  founding  of  San  Francisco. 
Later  chapters  unfold  events  in  the  Mexican  regime, 
and  finally  there  is  given  a  concise  account  of  the 
whole  Western  movement  for  the  occupation  of 
'  alifornia  from  the  United  States,  with  new  light 
upon  the  career  and  motives  of  John  C.  Fremont. 
Among  special  topics  considered  are  "The  origin 
atid  application  of  the  name  California";  "The 
probability  of  a  discovery  of  Monterey  Bay  ante- 
dating  that  of  Sebastian  Vizcaino  in  1602,"  and 
"The  significance  of  such  Spanish  institutions  as 
the  ( 'ustodia  and  Internleneta. ' '  ' '  Secularization  ' ' 
(1822-1847)  is  presented  in  tabulated  form  render- 
ing  tin-  movement  more  intelligible.  The  book  con 
tains  many  maps — some  of  them  never  before  pub 
lished.  One  of  the  most  interesting  (an  original 
compilation)  shows  twenty  two  important  Span 
ish  and  American  trails  which  affected  <  'alifornia 
fn.m    the   years   1691    to    1849. 

1 '  California  Under  Spain  and  Mexico"  should 
find  a  ready  place  in  the  library  of  every  student 
of  California  history.  The  book  is  neatly  bound, 
well  printed,  and  contains  a  mass  of  informs fcioo 
affecting  the  early  history  of  our  native  State  never, 
before   made   public. 

Houghton,  Mifiin  Co.,  4  Park  street,  Boston, 
Massachusetts,  are  the  publishers,  and  the  price  for 
the  book,  complete  with  maps,  charts  and  plans, 
is  $4.00  net.  It  will  be  sent  postpaid  to  any  ad-

^YA  DECISION  RENDERED  JUNE 
19th  in  the  United  States  Circuit 
Court  at  San  Francisco,  Judge  Mor- 
row has  decreed  that  the  smelter  of 
the  Balakala  Consolidated  Copper 
Company  at  Coram,  Shasta  County, 
must  close  down  within  thirty-five 
days.  The  smelter  was  allowed 
that  grace  in  order  that  it  may  melt 
the  10,000  tons  of  ore  on  hand.  The 
company  must  pay  the  Shasta 
County  farmers  $4000  costs  of  the 
suit.  The  smelter  plant  represents  an  investment 
of  $1,000,000.  The  matter  of  the  damaging  fumes 
from  the  smelter  seriously  affecting  vegetation  has 
been  in  the  courts  for  some  time,  and  the  farmers 
secured  an  injunction  to  prohibit  further  opera 
tions  of  the  plant  until  such  time  as  some  device 
could  be  erected  to  take  care  of  the  deadly  sul- 
phur  smoke. 

Recently  the  smelter  people  did  erect  a  fume  con- 
suming device,  and  began  operating  its  smelter, 
but  the  farmers  complained  that  it  did  not  do  the 
work  satisfactorily.  Through  their  attorney,  they 
recently  presented  twenty-six  affidavits  to  Judge 
Morrow,  each  affiant  farmer  saying  that  the  cop- 
per company  was  still  violating  the  decree  of 
July  8,  1910,  in  tour  esentials:  1.  In  not  eliminat- 
ing from  the  smetler  smoke  all  free  sulphuric  acid 
before  it  enters  the  Cottrell  process.  2.  The  Cott- 
rell  process  does  not  eliminate  from  the  smoke  all 
the  solid  particles.  3.  More  than  75-hundreths 
per  cent  of  sulphur  dioxide,  by  volume,  is  permitted 
to  pass  into  the  atmosphere.  4.  The  sulphur 
dioxide  so  permitted  to  pass  into  the  atmosphere  is 
injuring  the  crops  of  the  affiants  and  adding  to 
their  discomfort  and  inconvenience  in  violation  of 
the  terms  of  the  decree. 

Both  parties  were  in  court  June  19th,  and  after 
hearing  the  contentions  of  the  smelter  people  and 
the  farmers,  Judge  Morrow  granted  a  permanent 
injunction  against  the  Balakala  Company,  and  the 
plant  will  close  tlie  latter  part  of  July. 


STATE    MINERALOGIST   AFTER 

BOGUS   MINING   PROMOTERS. 

A  great  number  of  letters  received  lately  from 
the  East,  in  all  of  which  complaints  have  been 
made  by  purchasers  of  stock  from  James  E.  Kerr, 
is  enough  evidence  to  snow  State  Mineralogist 
Lewis  E.  Aubury,  so  he  says,  that  Kerr,  whose 
operations  in  the  Pacific  Coast  states  have  been 
interfered  with  largely  by  Aubury 's  expose  of  his 
methods,  is  still  using  the  mails  actively  in  other 
parts  of  the  United  States;  and  that  he  is  accumu- 
lating money  from  the  pockets  of  the  unwary  and 
the  uninformed  by  means  of  representations  in- 
cluded in  prospectuses  that  lead  victims  to  believe 
that  they  will  reap  large  profits  by  buying  Kerr 
shares.  "I  have  decided,"  so  Aubury  says  in  a 
signed  statement  "to  make  a  showing  relating  to 
Kerr's  operations,  that  no  one  may  claim  that  the 
State  of  California  has  not  manifested  due  dili- 
gence in  protecting  its  good  name  and  in  giving 
assurances  of  good  faith  that  shall  strengthen  con- 
fidence everywhere  in  the  solidity  of  California 
investments  and  prevent  it  from  being  destroyed 
by  men  of  the  Kerr  type, ' ' 

The  letters  received,  which  include  complaints 
against  Kerr  and  his  prospectus  representations, 
and  his  methods  relating  to  the  levying  of  assess- 
ments on  his  stocks,  are  an  object  lesson  of  strik- 
ing proportions.  Copies  of  the  information  in 
Aubury Js  possession  will  be  sent  to.  all  financial 
mining  and  oil  publications  in  the  country  and 
many  will  also  be  mailed  abroad  to  give  notices  to 
the  readers  in  Europe  and  elsewhere,  who  look  to 
the  press  to  notify  them  of  what  is  going  on  in 
relation  to  California  investment  properties,  espe- 
cially those  connected  with  the  mining  and  oil  pro- 
ducing industries.  Copies  will  also  be  sent  to 
American  consuls  abroad  and  to  foreign  consuls 
residing  in  the  United  States.  These  measures,  in 
connection  with  the  aid  that  the  United  States 
postal  authorities  may  give,  are  supposed  to  be  the 
best  that  can  be  adopted  to  protect  stock  buyers 
and  to  give  California  a  clean  bill  of  health. 

Aubury  has  a  long  and  detailed  statement  con- 
cerning Kerr,  which  is  summarized  as  follows: 
"Kerr  has  promoted  the  following  companies: 
High  Gravity  United  Oil  Co.  capitalized  at  $2,000,- 
000;  American  Duchess  Oil  Co.,  $2,000,000;  Illinois 
Oil  Bond  Co.,  $2,000,000;  Paxton  Gold  Bond  Oil 
Co.,    $500,000;    Wisconsin    Gold    Bond   Oil    Co.,    $1,- 


000,000;  Debenture  Surety  Co.,  organized  under  the 
laws  of  the  State  of  California;  Queen  Regent  Cop- 
per and  Gold  Co.;  Bullfrog  Extension  Mining  Co.; 
Bullfrog  Big  C  Mining  Co.,  capitalized  at  $1,000,000. 
Kerr  has  been  operating  in  California,  selling  stocks, 
for  eight  years.  Investors  have  been  persuaded  by 
his  representations  to  part  with  hundreds  of  thou- 
sands of  dollars.  Briefly,  one  of  his  plans  has  been 
to  incorporate  a  company  and,  by  statements  of 
what  certain  legitimate  companies  have  earned  in 
dividends  and  profits,  to  persuade  the  public  to  buy 
large  quantities  of  his  stocks,  at  from  five  cents  to 
twenty-five  cents  a  share.  After  selling  the  stocks, 
assessments  have  been  levied,  and,  by  this  means, 
he  has  gathered  in  additional  harvests  of  dollars. 
When  stockholders  rebelled  at  paying  assessments, 
Kerr  would  start  a  new  company  and  allow  the 
stockholders  in  the  original  company  to  take  stock 
in  the  new  company,  equal  to  their  holdings  in  the 
old  company,  by  paying  an  additional  sum  of 
money,  whereupon  assessments  would  begin  in  the 
new  company. 

"Kerr  is  now  operating  the  so-called  High 
Gravity  Oil  Company.  In  the  stock  of  this  com- 
pany, prior  to  February  18,  1911,  several  assess- 
ments were  levied,  notwithstanding  that  under  Sec- 
tion 231  of  the  Civil  Code  of  California,  it  is  neces- 
sary that  one-fourth  of  the  entire  capital  stock 
must  be  issued  before  an  assessment  can  be  legally 
levied.  On  the  date  mentioned,  less  than  one-fourth 
of  the  shares  of  the  High  Gravity  Oil  Company  had 
been  issued,  according  to  a  statement  issued  by 
Kerr,  who  represented  that  493,214  shares  had  been 
issued.  The  total  number  of  shares  included  in  the 
capitalization  was  2,u00,000.    Either  the  assessments 


to  aad  its  total  to  the  production  of  each  county, 
as  it  will  be  published,  the  State  Mining  Bureau 
asks  the  co-operation  of  all  interested  in  furnish-

RECENT   MINING   DECISIONS. 

MINERAL  PATENT— A  patent  to  government 
land  transfers  to  the  patentee  all  veins,  lodes,  or 
other  minerals  within  its  boundaries,  unless  such 
mineral  deposits  were  known  to  exist  at  the  time 
of  the  issuance  of  the  patent,  in  which  case  the 
known  mineral  deposits  do  not  pass  by  the  patent. 
— Loney  v.  Scott,  Supreme  Court,  of  Oregon,  112 
Pacific  *172. 

MINING  CORPORATIONS— A  subscriber  to 
stock  of  a  mining  corporation  gave  the  corporation 
an  option  on  mining  property  and  put  in  his  own 
work  for  a  season  against  the  capital  of  his  as- 
sociates and  received  for  his  work  only  ordinary 
wages.  Held,  that  he  was  entitled  to  have  the 
stock  subscribed  for  issued  to  him  after  his  failure 
to  pay  an  assessment  thereon,  on  payment  of  a  sum 
in  proportion  to  that  paid  and  advanced  on  the 
stock  by  other  stockholders  with  a  credit  for  the 
option  and  his  season's  work  less  cash  drawn  from 
the  corporation,  with  interest  from  the  date  of  the 
assessment. — Anthony  v.  Hillsboro  Gold  Mining  Co., 
Supreme  Court  of  Oregon,  113  Pacific  442. 

ASSESSMENT  OF  MINING  CLAIMS— A  loca- 
tor of  an  unpatented  mining  claim  was  informed  by 


$&*&&?, i?A'-&? 


A    Typical    Early-day    Mining    Camp    in    California. 


are    void,    or   false    and    fraudulent    representations 
were  made. 

"Sstatements  made  in  the  press  of  a  pipeline 
to  convey  the  oil  to  the  Ocean  Shore  Railroad  from 
the  wells  in  San  Mateo  County,  would  lead  investors 
to  believe  that  large  quantities  of  oil  were  to  be 
transported,  when  the  fact  is  that  a  one-horse  cart 
couiu.  transport  easily  all  the  oil  ever  produced  by 
the  Kerr  companies  in  that  jiounty.  The  average 
.output  of  the  wells  from  June,  1907,  to  September, 
1909,  did  not  aggregate  over  two  barrels  per  day. 
The  last  royalty  paid  to  the  owners  of  the  land  in 
August,  1910,  for  a  period  of  many  months,  was 
$1.13.  This  represented  one-eighth  of  the  selling 
price  of  the  oil." 


ASSISTANCE   WANTED   TO 

SECURE  FULL  REPORT  FOR  1910. 
The  State  Mining  Bureau  at  San  Francisco  is 
now  engaged  in  the  annual  collection  of  statistics 
regarding  the  mineral  production  of  California  in 
1910.  It  is  hardly  necessary  to  point  out  that  it  is 
highly  desirable  that  each  and  every  part  of  Cali- 
fornia shall  oe  fully  represented  in  the  published 
reports  that  will  go  out  to  all  parts  of  the  world 
in  a  few  months.  To  make  certain  that  no  mineral 
industry  in  any  vicinity  is  deprived  of  opportunity 


the  chairman  of  the  board  of  county  commissioners 
that  a  notice  would  be  sent  to  him  requiring  him 
to  show  cause  why  the  claim  should  not  be  assessed. 
He  used  the  ground  for  town-site  and  building  pur- 
poses. He  waived  notice,  and  on  the  hearing  the 
board  ordered  the  ground  assessed  for  town-site 
purposes,  over  the  locator's  objection  that  title  was 
not  in  him.  Held,  that  the  assessment  of  the 
ground  was  on  its  use  for  townsite  and  bulding  pur- 
poses, and  not  on  an  unpatented  raining  claim  as 
such. — Cobban  v.  Meagner,  County  Treasurer, 
Supreme  Court  of  Montana,  113  Pacific  290. 

POWER  TO  MORTGAGE  MINING  GROUND— 
Under  St.  1880,  c.  118,  as  amended  by  St.  1897,  c. 
92,  prohibiting  the  directors  of  any  mining  corpora- 
tion from  mortgaging  any  mining  ground,  unless 
ratified  by  the  holders  of  two-thirds  of  the  out- 
standing stock,  which  ratification  may  be  made 
either  in  writing  or  by  resolution,  the  directors  of 
a  mining  corporation  have  no  power  to  mortgage 
the  mining  ground  without  the  consent  of  the 
holders  of  two-thirds  of  the  stock  given  in  the  man- 
ner prescribed.. — Bennett  v.  Red  Cloud  Mining  Co., 
Court  of  Appeal,  Second  District,  California,  113 
Pacific   118.

HARD  SCRABBLE 


(Continued    from    Page    1,    Column    3) 

The  following  Sunday,  only  distinguished  from 
other  days  by  a  cessation  of  work,  a  poker  game 
of  more  than  usual  interest  was  in  progress  be- 
tween Cowboy  Jack  and  Texas  Ranger.  The  others 
left  their  games  and  glasses  to  watch  those  two, 
and  excitement  was  high  when  the  Ranger  accused 
the  Cowboy  of  cheating.  In  a  moment  the  lie  had 
been  given,  and  each  man's  hand  went  to  his  pistol. 
Big  Joe  was  between  them  in  a  jiffy.  "Yer  can't 
do  no  shootin'  in  this  shanty;  jest  yer  step  out- 
side and  have  it  out,"  he  said  quietly.  As  they 
stepped  outside,  there  was  wafted  to  them  on  the 
air,  fragrant  with  spring  blossoms,  a  hymn  sung 
in  a  sweet  soprano  voice: 

"Jesus,  lover  of  my  soul, 
Let  me  to  Thy  bosom  fly, 
While  the   nearer  waters  roll 
And    the    tempest    still    is    high." 
They  stopped,  the  pistols  were  readjusted  in  their 
belts,   and   each   man    raised   his   hat   and   listened: 
"Other  refuge  have  I  none, 
Hangs  my  helpless  soul  on  Thee; 
Leave,  oh  leave  me  not  alone, 
Still   support   and  comfort   me; 
Hide   me   oh    my   Savior   hide, 
Till  the  storms  of  life  are  past; 
Safe  into  Thy  haven  guide — 
Oh  receive  my  soul   at  last." 
The   Cowboy   brushed   his   sleeve   across   his   eyes 
and   tried   to   speak,   but   failed,   and   Texas   Ranger 
gulped  as  he  said,  "Boys,  my  mother  uster  sing  that 
song  and  I  ain't   goin'  ter  kill  anybody  if  I  know 
it. "      And    then    and     there    another    meeting     was 
called   to  order  in  that  bar-room  and,  without  one 
dissenting  voice,  a  vote  was  carried  that  a  bonfire 
be  started  with  those  resolutions  previously  adopted 
and  Bunker  invited  back  to  the  fold.     Big  Joe  him- 
self went  in  search  of  Bill  and  brought  him  to  the 
bar,   and   so    many  bumpers   were    consumed    in    the 
way   of  celebration   that   there   wasn  't   much    work 
done   in   Hard   Scrabble   next   day. 

That  week  a  stranger  came  to  the  camp.  He  was 
a  mere  boy  in  looks,  though  past  twenty  in  years, 
and  Mrs.  Bunker's  heart  went  out.  to  him  at  once. 
In  less  than  a  week  there  was  not  a  man  in  camp 
but  who  would  have  fought  for  the  "Kid,"  as  they 
dubbed  him.  Mrs.  Bunker  insisted  on  his  making 
his  bed  in  a  cabin  near  theirs  and  taking  his  meals 
with  them.  Windy  Jim  vowed  "He'd  be  buni- 
fuzzled  if  that  warn't  the  likeliest  lad  he'd  seen 
in  quite  a  spell,"  and  Seedy  Sam  reckoned  he  was 
about  right.  Dandy  was  a  little  jealous  on  the 
start  and  began  to  poke  fun,  but  Big  Joe  calcu- 
lated that  ' '  This  yer  camp  warn 't  big  enough  to 
hold  the  feller  that  poked  fun  at  the  Kid.  That 
rails  were  pretty  plentiful  round  these  here 
diggin 's, ' '  so  henceforth  Dandy  was  one  of  the 
Kid's  most  ardent  admirers. 

One  day  as  the  men  were  taking  their  morning 
drink  at  the  bar,  Bunker  appeared  with  the  news 


that  the  Kid  was  ailing  and  his  wife  thought  him 
a  pretty  sick  boy  and  he  believed  they  best  have 
a  doctor.  Dandy  did  not  wait  for  more,  but 
mounted    Big    .In.-'s    horse    without    asking   leave   or 

license   and    was   oil'   like   a    sfrrak.      \ lc    worked 

much  that  morning  and  when  tin;  doctor  arrived 
work  was  abandoned  altogether  and  the  men  stood 
around  in  little  groups  and  awaited  his  verdict. 
Cowboy  Jack  "reckoned  they'd  take  turns  setting 
up  nights  with  the  Kid,"  and  Texas  Ranger  talked 
of'a  trip  to  Frisco  to  procure  delicacies  during  his 

eonvalesr.enre. 

The  doctor  appeared  at  last  and  told  them  that 
the  Kid  had  the  then  almost  fatal  malady  of  small 
pox,  and  explained  how  they  must  exercise  great 
care  thai  il  should  not  spread.  It  must  then  be 
decided  who  should  be  the  nurse.  Those  who  had 
been  so  eager  to  nurse  him  before,  now  wondered 
if    they    could   give   their     lives     for     this     "Kid."

HE  PEOPLE  OF  THE  STATE  GEN- 
erally,  ami  particularly  the  owners 
of  automobiles,  are  displaying  con- 
siderable interest  in  the  route  to  be 
selected  for  the  $18,000,000  State 
highway  for  which  the  people  re- 
cently  voted  bonds.  The  Monterey 
County  Chamber  of  Commerce  has 
advanced  the  idea  of  having  the  old 
El  'amino  Real  route  selected  for 
that  portion  of  the  highway  between 
San  Francisco  and  San  Diego. 
This  suggestion  seems  to  be  meeting  with  much 
favor,  and  has  been  endorsed  by  other  Chambers 
of  Commerce.  Ti>  create  interest  and  enlist  sup- 
port in  the  movement,  the  following  is  being  widely 
circulated  by  those  interested  in  El  Camino  Real 
route: 

"Tci  the  State  Highway  Commissioners,  Sacra- 
mento. California — Gentlemen:  As  California  has 
appropriated  $18,000,000  for  a  State  highway,  and 
as  this  highway  is  intended  to  be  the  best  in  the 
world  for  travelers  and  pleasure  seekers  by  reason 
of  its  excellence  as  a  road,  its  scenic  qualities  and 
historical  lore;  and  as  from  Dolores  Mission,  in 
San  Francisco,  to  the  San  Diego  Mission  the  Fran- 
ciscan Friars  established  a  chain  of  missions  con- 
nected by  El  (.'amino  Real;  and.  as  El  Camino  Real 
is  the  most  picturesque  road  in  California;  and  as, 
by  following  El  Camino  Real,  travelers  would  come 
in  touch  with  historical  California,  as  well  as  the 
most  diversified  and  picturesque  route  along  the 
ocean  shore,  deep  canyons,  high  rocky  crags  and 
mountains  and  broad,  fertile  valleys;  it  is  hereby 
"Resolved.  That  we,  representing  the  county  con- 
taining California's  first  capitol.  place  ourselves  on 
record  as  recommending  and  urging  the  adoption  of 
this  route  as  the  one  from  which  the  State  as  a 
whole  will  derive  the  most  benefit  and  travelers  the 
most  pleasure.    Be  it 

"Resolved,  That  the  Monterey  County  Chamber 
of  Commerce  request  the  Commission  to  fully  con- 
sider El  Camino  Real  as  the  route  from  San  Fran- 
cisco to  San  Diego,  knowing  if  this  route  is  in- 
spected it  will  justify  our  encomiums."

Approves  Exposition  Athletics. 
Word  has  been  received  in  San  Francisco  from 
the  American  Athletic  Union  in  New  York,  that  the 
International  Olympic  Committee  has  gone  on  rec- 
ord as  approving  the  world's  championship  ga"nies 
to  be  held  in  San  Francisco  in  connection  with  the 
1915  Panama-Pacific  International  Exposition  and 
in  recognizing  them  as  world's  championships.  The 
International  Olypmic  Committee  at  its  meeting 
pledged  a  gold  medal  for  the  1915  meet  for  the 
Penthathlon,  the  Grecian  all-around  test  of  athletic 
skill.  The  Penthathlon  is  to  be  introduced  for  the 
first  time  in  the  Olympic  games  at  Stockholm, 
Sweden,  next  year.  It  consits  of  five  events,  and 
is  similar  to  the  all-around  championship  here,  but 
is  less  extensive.  The  points  in  the  Penthathlon 
will  be  scored  according  to  the  place  in  each  event, 
one  for  first,  two  for  second,  and  three  for  third. 
The  competitor  with  the  least  number  of  points  will 
be  declared  the  winner. 


Pastor  Defends  Baseball. 
Prefacing  his  sermon  with  a  recitation  of  "Casey 
at  the  Bat,"  the  Rev.  Franklin  Baker,  pastor  of  the 
First  Unitarian  Church  at  Sacramento,  spoke  to  a 
crowded  house  in  that  city  at  his  Sunday  evening 
sermon,  June  25th,  in  defense  of  Sunday  baseball, 
declaring  that  the  $15,000,000  spent  for  baseball  last 
season  was  better  expended  than  the  same  sum  in 
foreign  missions,  and  that  the  game  is  "America's 
mental  shower  bath."  Dr.  Baker  called  attention 
to  the  large  salaries  paid  to  league  players  and  the 
enormous  sums  spent  annually  by  the  American  peo- 
ple in  witnessing  their  source  of  amusement.  He  is 
an  enthusiastic  fan  and  ball  player,  and  his  discourse 
lacked  none  of  the  modern  baseball  vernacular.  He 
traced  the  evolution  of  the  game  for  the  past  fifty 
years  until  its  international  recognition  as  Amer- 
ica's national  sport,  and  how  the  game  has  gripped 
itself  in  the  lives  of  the  American  youth  of  today. 


State   Wide  Auto   Race. 

In  order  to  arouse  interest  in  the  coming  State 
Fair  at  Sacramento,  August  26th  to  September  2nd, 
it  is  proposed  by  the  directors  of  the  State  Agri- 
cultural Society  to  have  automobile  races  from 
every  corner  of  the  State  toward  Sacramento  for 
the   opening  day. 

Three  prizes  will  likely  be  offered  for  the  autoists 
who  make  the  best  time  in  reaching  the  Capital 
<  itv,    from    their    home    cities,    distance    and    other 


things,  of  course,  being  taken  into  consideration. 
It  is  believed  that  thousands  of  autos  will  take  part 
in  such  a  contest  and  so  time  their  departure  as 
to  arrive  in  Sacramento  iue  afternoon  of  the  open- 
ing day  of  the  State  Fair.  A  big  auto  parade, 
made  up  of  visiting  and  local  vehicles,  would  then 
be  formed  and  proceed  to  the  exposition  grounds. 


State  Association  to  Meet. 
The  California  Fish  and  Game  Protective  Associa- 
tion will  hold  its  annual  meeting  at  Capitola,  near 
Santa  Cruz,  September  15th,  16th  and  17th.  The 
Santa  Cruz  sportsmen  are  preparing  a  royal  wel- 
come for  the  delegates. 


Baseball  Club  Standings. 
The  standing  of  the  clubs  in   the  major  leagues, 
including  games  played  June  25th,  is  as  follows:

Happy  Hogan  regards  the  Eastern  invasion  of 
Henry  Berry  with  a  deal  of  joy.  "I  sent  him 
East."  roared  Hogan,  "and  will  send  him  out 
again  when  he  returns." 

Harry  Wolverton  is  of  the  opinion  that  the  race 
in  the  Coast  League  this  season  will  be  much  closer 
than  last  year.  According  to  Harry's  version,  the 
Sacramento  Club  has  strengthened,  and  with  Los 
Angeles  bolstering  up,  the  teams  will  be  evenly 
matched. 

Cal  Ewing  is  strongly  in  favor  of  the  old  ball 
and  Ewing  takes  the  same  stand  as  many  supporters 
of  the  game.  "This  new  ball  is  ruining  our  sport," 
said  Cal  recently.  "A  number  of  the  patrons  have 
kicked  to  me  on  the  exhibitions  taking  place  and 
I  intend  to  see  that  a  less  lively  ball  is  put  into 
play. ' ' 

Cutshaw  is  not  only  the  flashiest  ball  player  in  the 
league,  but  he  is  the  best  second  baseman  cavorting 
in  the  territory  governed  by  the  honorable  Judge 
Graham.  Cutty  is  a  tower  of  strength  to  the  Oak- 
land club.  He  is  a  sure  fielder  and  hits  timely. 
In  addition  to  these  tendencies  Cutty  is  the  best 
base  stealer  in  the  league. 

Harry  Abies,  the  Oaks'  hefty  southsider,  says 
Chase  is  a  success  as  a  manager.  ' '  The  fans  are 
all  for  him,"  remarked  Abies.  "He  has  a  good 
club  and  will  be  heard  from.  The  players  are  work- 
ing hard  for  Hal,  and  Chase  is  an  appreciative  fel- 
low." California  fans  will  be  glad  to  hear  this,  as 
Hal  has  a  legion  of  admirers  in  the  Golden  State, 

Hark,  ye  baseball  managers,  and  listen  to  what 
one  Happy  Hogan  has  to  say  as  an  incentive  for

which  he  intends  to  pul  into  action  should  his  club 
Conquer  in  the  race.  "It  mj  team  wins  the  pen- 
nant," said  Hogan,  wiping  the  perspiration  from 
Ins  brow,  after  toiling  with  liis  pitchers  for  half 
:i  ii  Kour,  ' '  I  "ill  take  I  hem  on  a  I  rip  around  t  he 
world  and  Pool  all  expenses.  ll"u  does  that  hit 
\,.n  '  All  my  men  are  well  educated  and  instead  of 
playing  ball  on  the  trip  we  will  give  lectures  on 
various  phases  in  life.  Tins  is  no  kidding  proposi 
linn,  either."  Hogan  is  certainly  after  the  old  Sag, 
and  will  spare  do  pains  to  capture  it. 

At  the  aexl  meeting  of  the  Pacific  Coast  League 
directors  in  December,  J.  Cal  Ewing  intends  to  pul 
:i  i:iw  up  to  ili"'  directors  prohibiting  the  selling  of 
ball  players  in  the  Coast  League  during  or  after 
the  termination  of  the  pennanl  race.  It  is  Ewing 's 
contention  thai  there  is  too  much  commercialism 
in  the  presenl  game  and  not  enough  sport.  The 
San  Francisco  club  owner  is  right.  Why  should 
tin-  major  league,  it"-  supreme  body  in  the  East,  I"1 
entitled  to  offer  large  sums  of  money  for  players  in 
i  In1  minor  leagues  and  have  the  minor  league  mag- 
nates sell  i  lii'in  regardless  of  the  outcome  on  the 
pennanl  race?  The  fans  are  entitled  to  protection. 
One  season  they  have  a  winner  and  the  next  season 
:i  loser  because  fh<-  star  players  :ire  sold  every 
season.  Lei  them  draft  them,  is  Ewing's  saying. 
The  San  Francisco  Club  has  adopted  a  policy  not 
to  sell  any  of  its  players  and  the  other  magnates 
would   do   well   to   follow   the   example.

ORIGINALITY 


istinctly  California  Home  at  Santa  Ana,  Orange  County 


Originality  everwhere  is  displayed  in  this  home, 
making  it  especially  interesting.  The  structure  is  of 
the  colonial  type,  but  in  point  of  design  is  different 
from  most  examples  of  that  type  of  architecture  in 
Southern  California.  Perhaps  the  most  striking 
feature  of  the  residence  is  the  winding  stairway  in 
the  center  of  toe  house.  Half-way  to  the  second 
story,  a  landing  is  formed  overlooking  an  elliptical 
shaped  dining-room.  This  landing,  or  balcony, 
makes  an  ideal  place  for  stationing  an  orchestra. 

A  huge  pillar  extends  from  the  floor  of  the  main 
hall  to  the  roof  of  the  house,  which  has  three 
stories.  All  tlie  bed-rooms  open  off  a  circular  hall 
on  the  second  floor,  and  the  third  floor,  instead  of 
being  an  old-fashioned  "cobwebby  garret,"  is 
panneled,     and    a     high     bannister     extends     clear 


around,  directly  above  the  bannister  around  the  base 
below,  the  whole  having  the  appearance  of  a 
steamer  ueck.  A  skylight  sheds  its  clear  light  down 
through  this  "well, "  as  it  were,  to  the  main  hall 
below. 

H.  Clay  Kellogg  of  Santa  Ana,  Orange  County, 
is  too  much  of  a  native  Californian — as  the  grizzlies 
on  the  iront  steps  will  testify — not  to  have  some 
reuwood  utilized  in  the  construction  of  his  home. 
The  hall  parlors  and  stairway  are  of  this  wood, 
while  the  dining-room,  library  and  kitchen  are 
itiiished  in  pine,  with  maplewood  floors  and  inlaid 
walnut  borders. 

An  eight-foot  cement  basement  underlies  the  en- 
tire house.  The  wide  cement  front  porch  is  mostly 
glass,  inlaid  where  it  serves  to  light  the  billiard- 
room,  which  is  located  in  the  basement. 


MANY  SUBSCRIPTIONS  FOR 

THE  SAN  FRANCISCO  HALL. 

The  Native  Sons  Hall  in  San  Francisco  is  going 
along  nicely  in  construction,  and  it  is  believed  that 
it  will  be  ready  for  occupancy  the  first  of  the  new 
year.  The  Pacific  Rolling  Mills  of  San  Francisco 
has  completed  the  steel  work,  which  is  now  in  place. 
Contracts  have  been  let  for  the  terra  cotta  to  the 
Gladding,  McBean  Co.  of  Lincoln,  Placer  County, 
and  contracts  have  also  been  placed  for  the  plumb- 
ing, heating  system  and  electrical  work. 

Sufficient  stock  subscriptions  were  obtained  at  the 
recent  Grand  Parlor  meeting  to  bring  the  subscribed 
capital  to  $200,500.  This  is  sufficient  to  cover  the 
cost  of  all  building  contracts,  and  leaves  but  about 
$25,000  to  be  raised  for  furnishings.  It  is  the  inten- 
tion to  have  the  building  ready  for  occupancy  free 
of  all  debt,  so  that  the  stockholders  will  realize 
dividends  on  their  investment  immediately. 

There  is  absolutely  no  doubt  but  that  the  building 
will  be  a  money-maker,  and  that  a  good  rate  of 
interest  will  be  netted  on  the  total  investment.  If 
you  want  some  of  this  stock,  both  as  a  financial  and 
sentimental  investment,  write  to  Adolph  Eberhart, 
secretary,  183  Carl  street,  San  Francisco.  Don't 
wait  too  long,  however,  as  the  subscription  list  will 
soon  close. 


Kelseyville,  Napa,  San  Jose,  Sacramento,  Stockton 
and  Oakland.  Many  Parlors  already  own  their  own 
meeting-places,  and  it  is  to  be  hoped  that  the  day 
is  not  far  distant  when  every  city  and  town  in  the 
State  will  boast  a  N.S.G.W.  hall. 


MANY  HALLS  IN  PROSPECT. 

There  is  a  desire  in  many  cities,  on  the  part  of  the 
N.S.G.W.,  to  own  their  own  homes,  and  building 
operations  are  now  being  considered  in  Fort  Jones,

MOTHER  OF     -LOU"    MAYER 

HAS  JOINED  SILENT  MAJORITY. 
Johanna  S.  Mayer,  a  native  of  Philadelphia,  aged 
7  s.  died  Sunday,  June  _-"i  h.  at  ber  home  in  San 
Francisco.  She  bad  been  ill  for  half  ;i  year,  and 
was  faithfully  nursed  by  her  devoted  daughter, 
Tress  Mayer.  Mrs.  Mayer  was  one  of  the  early 
California  settlers,  and  was  the  widow  of  the  late 
Lewis  W.  Mayer,  a  Mexican  War  Veteran  and  (_'ali- 

fornia   Pi ter.     The  Couple  spent   some  time  in  the 

mining  regions  and  then  settled  in  Sonoma  County, 
:it  Pioneei  Grove.  A  son.  Lewis  B.  Mayer,  who 
died  near  Los  Angeles,  in  L909,  waa  a  Past  Presi 
dent  of  El  Dorado  Parlor,  X.  S.  <;.  \\\,  of  San 
Francisco,  and  aad  extensive  experience  as  a  cir- 
culation manager  of  the  San  Francisco  ('all  and 
Bulletin,  and  The  Grizzly  Hear.  Mrs.  Mayer  ia  sur 
vived  by  t  hree  children  and  several  grandchildren, 
she  was  noted  for  her  hospitality  and  genial  nature. 
Her  good  deeds  will  ever  cherish  her  in  their 
thoughts.  

"GRATUITOUS  INSULT" 

Bdwa  rd  F.  Cahill  of  the  San  Francisco  Call, 
familiarly  called  ''Pop*1  by  liis  friends,  is  a  genial 
soul;  but  sometimes  he  permits  his  humorous  pro- 
clivities tn  lead  him  astray.  In  the  Sunday  Call 
of  May  7th,  he  gibes  at  the  Marshall  Monument, 
this  wise:  "Nut  so  many  years  past  the  State 
Legislature  had  a  superfluous  statue  on  its  hands, 
an  effigy  of  John  Marshall,  who  discovered  gold  in 
California.  Nobody  in  the  Legislature  cared  a 
button  ah. mt  Marshall  or  liis  memory,  but  there 
waa  a  very  active  sculptor  on  the  ground  who 
wanted  the  job,  and  he  contrived  to  get  the  ap- 
propriation. None  <if  the  cities  asked  for  the  statue, 
su  the  Legislature  ordered  that  it  should  be  put 
in  the  middle  of  a  grain  field  at  Coloma,  and  ap- 
pointed a  guardian  under  sa lary  to  see  that  the 
eows  didn  't  bite  it.  " 


This  might  be  funny  if  it  did  not  lack  all  the 
elements    Of     fun;     but     it     is     false     in     fact,     and     a 

gratuitous  insult  to  the  Native  Sona  of  the  Golden 
West,   who   have   done   111  ue h   to   preserve  the   land 

marks   of   California.      The    piece   of    laud   at    Col a 

overlooking  the  site  of  Sutter's  Mill,  where  .lames 
W.   Marshall   made  the   firsl    available  discovery  of 

go  hi    in    this    Stale,    and    where    he    was    buried,    was 

purchased  from  the  heirs  of  Marshall  after  his 
death  in  1885  by  Placerville  Parlor,  No.  9,  X.  S. 
<;.  W.,  and  donated  to  the  state,  and  at  the  request 
of  that  order  the  Legislature  appropriated  $5000 
to  erect  a  monument  over  his  grave,  and  direr  ted 
the  Governor  to  appoint  a  commission  to  procure 
such  monument.     (Stats.  1887,  p  50.) 

This  committee  employed  a  seal  pi  or  of  distinc 
t i i ni  to  carve  the  monument,  which  waa  unveiled 
with  appropriate  ceremonies  May  3,  1890;  and  it 
should  no  more  he  seotfed  al  by  the  irreverent  than 
Bunker  Hill  monument.  A  guardian  is  employed 
by  the  State  to  protect  the  monument  front  vandal 
Visitors;  it  is  a  pity  his  juriSQiCt  ion  does  not  ex 
tend  to  vandal  penny -a  liners.  It  marks  the  spot 
where  the  discovery  was  made  t  hat  changed  *  Cali- 
fornia from  the  dolee  far  niente  of  Mexican  life 
to  its  thrifty  and  enterprising  condition  today;  an  1 
made  possible,  among  more  important  things,  the 
San    Francisco   Call    and    Edward    P.    Cahill. 

A  labored  facet iousness  is  far  from  be i  tig  wit , 
and  such  a  pasquinade  is  unworthy  of  its  author.

Oakland,  May  4th. 
Grizzly  Bear  Pub.  Co. — Dear  Sirs:  Enclosed 
find  one  dollar  for  another  year's  subscription 
to  The  Grizzly  Bear.  Reading  the  magazine 
each  month  is  always  a  source  of  pleasure  to 
me,  and  my  father  is  always  interested  in  the 
happenings  of  fifty  years  ago,  many  of  which 
events  he  can  bring  to  mind,  as  he  is  a  Pio- 
neer, having  crossed  the  plains  as  a  child  in 
lv~i'  ami  later  witnessing  many  of  the  occur- 
rences  which  are  again  brought  to  light  in 
each  month's  edition  of  the  magazine. 

Wishing  you  a  prosperous  gathering  of  new 
subscriptions  and  advertisements  at  the  Grand

HARD  SCRABBLE 


MEMEMG  CAM? 


(Continued   from    Page   17,   Column  2.1 

While  they  hesitated,  Bunker  came  and  announced 
that  his  wife  was  already  there  and  refused  to  let 
anyone   else   enter   the   cabin. 

Every  man  dropped  his  head,  ashamed  to  face 
his  fellow-man — ashamed,  not  only  that  he  had 
shown  less  bravery  than  this  woman,  but  because 
he  should  ever  have  thought  her  plain,  or  have 
been  one  of  those  who  had  schemed  to  keep  her 
from  among  tnem.  Then  with  one  accord  they 
ordered  glasses  filled  and  drank  to  "Mrs,  Bunker, 
the  bravest  feller  in  camp,"  and  each  man  was 
eager  for  his  turn  at  carrying  wood  and  water  and 
other  essentials  to  the  cabin,  where  were  the  idols 
of  the  camp. 

The  doctor  made  daily  visits  and  it  was  learned 
through  him,  on  the  tenth  day,  that  death  was 
near.  The  men  gathered  around  the  cabin  and, 
with  bowed  heads,  waited  for  the  end.  As  the  sun 
went  down  behind  the  snow-capped  Sierras  they 
again  heard  the  notes  of  tnat  loved  song,  "Jesus, 
Lover  of  My  Soul,"  and  when  it  ended  with,  "Oh 
receive  my  soul  at  last, ' '  there  was  not  a  dry 
eye  and  all  knew  that  their  "Kid"  was  no  more. 

But  little  they  thought  that  what  they  all  feared 
bad  already  come  to  pass.  Ere  the  song  had  died 
away,  Bunker's  wife  sank  upon  the  bed,  never 
again  to  arise.  The  doctor,  but  a  gruff  miner  him 
self,  haa  been  touched  by  the  woman's  heroism  and 
could  only  shake  his  heau,  and  those  rough  men 
knew  that  the  "critter  in  petticoats,"  who  had 
proven  such  a  blessing  to  Hard  Scrabble  mining 
camp,  must  soon  be  laid  to  rest  on  the  hillside  be 
side   the  "kid. ' ' 


Many   a   man   who   is   calling  loudly   for   justice. 
would  be  in   the   county  jail   if  he  got   it.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


July,    191 


ET,  HO!  ISN'T  THIS  GRAND?  NO 
more  books  until  next  September," 
sang  a  merry  high  school  lass  after 
the  recent  eventful  23rd.  ' '  And 
how  very  appropriate  that  date  was, 
too, ' '  she  added  with  a  happy 
laugh.  "You  said  'no  more 
books '  ? ' '  I  queried.  ' ( What  do 
you  propose  to  do  with  your  vaca- 
tion?" "Well,  I'm  going  to  the 
mountains  where  my  aunt  and  uncle 
and  jolly  cousins  galore  will  all  help 
to  pass  the  time  in  climbing  and  other  sports,  then 
mother  and  the  rest  of  us  will  take  jaunts  to  dif- 
ferent points  of  interest  for  the  rest  of  vacation 
time."  "And  no  books?"  I  again  queried. 
"Take  a  few  on  'Nature's  Studies'  to  help  you 
understand  the  greatest  of  all  things,  that  big 
open  book  of  nature,  that  teaches  us  the  thous- 
and and  one  things  we  cannot  find  in  the 
printed  volumes.  They  will  help  to  interest,  as 
well  as  rest  you,  when  tired  of  active  sport.  Try 
it  and  see,"  I  urged. 

This  timely  suggestion  will  apply  to  anyone 
contemplating  such  an  outing.  Teachers  and 
scholars  alike  will  be  benefited,  as  well  as  the 
parents.  This  broad  ' '  out-of-doors ' '  of  ours, 
especially  by  the  rolling  Pacific,  or  high  up  on 
some  mountain  where  the  "earth  and  sky  seem 
to  meet,"  affords  delightful  explorations  and 
camping  places.  We  must  never  be  so  foolish 
though  as  to  think  of  such  an  outing  with  our 
every-day  city  apparel,   for  the   "comfy"   new 

Khaki  Suits 
are  what  we  must  have.  There  are  a  few  new 
ideas.  One  is  called  the  "patent  combination 
suit,"  where  the  waist,  skirt  and  bloomers  are 
all  in  one,  and  so  easily  adjusted  that  it  is  a 
real  blessing.  This  suit  buttons  straight  down 
the  front,  with  a  deep  inverted  pleat  in  the 
back  of  the  skirt,  to  allow  for  bicycling  or 
horseback  riding.  The  suit  also  has  big,  roomy 
outside  pockets  that  take  in  articles  needed  on 
short   jauuts. 

The  blouse  two-piece  khaki  suits  are  very 
smart,  and  some  prefer  them,  as  the  skirt  has  a 
wide  front  panel  that  buttons  on  one  side.  Two 
rows  of  buttons  allow  for  the  change  from  an 
ordinary  walking  skirt,  when  the  panel  is  in 
place,  to  a  divided  skirt,  when  the  panel 
can  be  buttoned  over  on  the  other  side 
and  the  garment  instantly  converted  into 
a  divided  skirt.  The  Norfolk  two-piece  jacket 
suit  is  another  smart  outing  garment.  One  can 
either  wear  the  khaki  blouse  underneath  the 
coat,  or  use  same  pretty  color  that  goes  well 
with  the  khaki,  or  white.  The  buttons  are  all 
self-covered,  and  a  natty  divided  skirt,  with  the 
front  panel  effect,  completes  a  nifty  costume. 
One  must  also  have  shoes,  hat  and  gloves  to 
correspond  with  outing  clothes.  The  latest  in 
shoes  is  the  extreme  high  buttoned  with  cuff 
and  buckle  tops.  The  round  toe,  not  the  "stub" 
of  last  year,  but  the  medium  round  toe,  is  now 
correct.  TV  nere  one  prefers  the  lace  snoe,  it 
comes  with  the  same  cuff  and  buckle  top  and 
bellows  tongue.  The  button  boot  comes  in  elk- 
skin,  while  the  lace  shoe  is  of  willow  calf.  The 
half-Cuban  heel  affords  greater  ease  in  walking,  so 
the  shoe-men  tell  us  now,  than  the  old  "common- 
sense"  of  a  year  or  so  ago.  In  gloves,  we  find  the 
gauntlet,  or  the  ordinary  chamois  for  good  service. 
There  is  something  extremely  smart  and  new  in  the 
late  models  for  midsummer  outing  hats.  These  are 
made  of  soft,  light  weight  felt,  and  trimmed  with 
soft  folds  of  silk  or  velvet  with  the  high  "stick- 
up  ' '  effects  in  bows  or  fancies.  The  crowns  are 
tnedium  and  brims  rolling,  so  that  one  can  adjust 
them  to  most  any  angle,  rakish  or  otherwise.  The 
khaki  hat  is  our  old  standby,  and  needs  no  descrip- 
tion. Now,  in  regard  to  the  latest  in 
Lingerie  Suits  and  Gowns. 
For  the  beaches,  at  home,  or  for  the  street,  we  see 
many  new  and  dainty  models.  In  the  lingerie,  the 
midsummer  styles  are  so  fine  and  sheer  it  would 
almosl  scrm  ns  though  they  were  spun  from  a  cob- 
web instead  of  firm  material  on  regular  looms. 
Seemingly  frail,  they  are  good  for  at  least  one 
si'.Msnn  of  care ful  wear.  One  gown  of  fine  white 
mull,  with  Irish  and  val  lace  combined,  made  in 
empire  style  and  tunic  effect,  was  beautiful  as  a 
dream.  The  foundation  was  of  fine  white  net  with 
Irish  lace  medalions  set  in  around  the  hem.  The 
overdress  of  the  mull  was  edged  with  three  frills 


CONDUCTED    BY    MINNIE   ALICE   BEAUFAIT 

of  narrow  val  lace  around  large  shallow  scallops. 
Last,  but  not  least,  the  tunic  of  mull  was  trimmed 
with  crochetted  roses,  from  which  were  suspended 
crochetted  balls  on  cord,  creating  a  very  unique 
gown.  Large  bow-knots  of  val  lace  were  inserted 
in  the  waist  and  tunic.  The  short  kimono  sleeves 
were  piped  with  black  velvet  to  finish  the  elbow. 
Another  mull  of  sea-shell  pink,  and  with  pink 
messaline  underdress,  was  covered  with  fine  white 
net  trimmed  with  dainty  Swiss  embroidery,  which 
was  finished  with  tiny  crochetted  balls.  The  tunic 
of  fine  allover  Swiss  embroidery  extended  about 
half-way  down  the  skirt,  making  a  three-in-one 
gown,  which  is  quite  a  feature  this  season.  They 
come    in    many    combinations,    and    each    one    seems 


A    Couplet    of 
"Ideal    Patent    Khaki    Suits." 

— Design  from  Bullock's,  Los  Angeles. 

just  a  little  daintier  than  the  one  before.  Low 
Dutch  necks,  either  round  or  square,  predominate 
on  these  models.  Sometimes  just  a  touch  of  net 
across  the  shoulder,  where  the  net  is  combined  in 
the  gown,  gives  it  a  dainty  and  chic  appearance. 
Wide  satin  ribbon  is  used  very  much  for  folded 
girdles,  with  the  folded  flat  military  bow  at  the 
side  back,  or  side  front,  from  which  the  long  ends 
fall  nearly  to  the  hem.  Tiny  crochetted  balls  fin- 
ished the  ends  of  the  ribbon  on  this  sea-shell  pink 
mull  gown. 

Just  one  more  of  these  dainty  lingerie  frocks  I 
wish  to  describe,  as  when  the  wealth  of  a  French- 
room  is  displayed  for  inspection  it  is  very  hard  to 
pick  and  choose  from  among  so  many  ideal  gowns. 
This  one  of  cream  white  hand-embroidered  fine 
linen,  had  a  wide  band  of  point  Venice  lace  in- 
serted in  the  skirt.  (By  the  way,  it  is  pronounced 
"Ven-eece, "  witli  a  strong  accent  on  the  last  sylla- 
ble.) The  embroidery  was  in  scroll  design,  to 
simulate  beadwork — and  this  is  used  in  colors  on 
many  a  dainty  waist  or  frock.  The  waist  also  had 
the  Venice  lace  inserted  below  the  embroidery,  and 
just  above  the  high  empire  effect.  A  corn  silk 
folded  girdle,  with  the  flat  military  bow,  finished 
tne  side  back.  Narrow  side  panels  were  inset  and 
edged  with  long  pendants  of  Venice  lace,  which 
were  in  turn  finished  with  several  strings  of 
crochetted  fringe.     These  came  right  to  the  bottom 


of  the  skirt.  A  low  Dutch  neck  and  elbow  kimono 
sleeves  completed  about  as  chic  a  costume  for  an 
afternoon  or  informal  affair  as  one  could  wish  for. 

In  Linen  Suits 
for  most  any  occasion,  from  the  severe  tailored 
styles  right  through  the  gamut  of  soft,  dainty 
materials — all  linen,  remember, — there  is  a  great 
variety  to  choose  from,  both  in  texture  and  design. 
A  white  Irish  linen  one-piece  gown  was  very 
elaborate  in  hand  embroidery  on  the  waist  and 
skirt.  The  neck  was  a  low  square  Dutch,  with  the 
entire  bodice  hand  embroidered  in  eyelet. work.  The 
closing  was  at  the  side  back,  or  rather  on  the  left 
shoulder,  so  as  not  to  destroy  the  perfect  line  of 
the  embroidery  at  the  back.  The  sleeves  were 
elbow  length  with  the  cluny  and  eyelet  finishing. 
A  white  satin  folded  girdle,  with  the  flat  military 
bow  at  the  back,  gave  a  pretty  touch  to  the  linen 
and  embroidery,  as  all  satin  girdles  generally  do. 
The  skirt  had  the  inverted  side  pleats  and  a  row 
of  tiny  crochetted  buttons  up  each  side.  This  model 
conforms  very  readily  with  the  straight  lines  we 
mostly  affect  at  this  season. 

Just  a  word  or  two,  to  call  attention  to  the  ex- 
treme ways  that  we  are  using  all  kinds  of  crochetted 
work  this  summer.  This  is  such  dainty  work  that 
one  may  spend  many  a  morning  or  afternoon  very 
profitably  doing  some  part  of  a  pretty  gown,  and 
as  it  promises  to  be  popular  for  some  time  yet, 
your  time  will  not  be  wasted.  These  dainty  linens 
come  in  many  shades  and  combinations. 

The  high-waist  line  or  empire  mode  is  used  on 
nearly  all  gowns,  though  some  few  Princess  models 
are  shown.  The  wide  back  and  front  gores  with 
narrow  sides,  or  the  very  narrow  back  and  front 
gores  with  jwide  sides  are  used,  on  which  many 
pretty  and  unique  designs  in  trimming  are  seen. 
A  narrow  front  gore  may  be  almost  entirely  of 
the  embroidery  or  lace  .the  gown  is  combined  with, 
while  wide  bands  of  the  same  can  be  used  as  trim- 
ming on  the  side  gores. 

A  military  blue  linen  was  particularly  chic,  with 
a  double-breasted  front  to  the  waist  and  two  rows 
of  white  pearl  buttons  to  close.  The  sailor  collar 
was  very  narrow  and  deep,  extending  to  the  waist- 
line at  the  back.  A  folded  blue  satin  girdle  closed 
at  the  side  front  with  a  large  rosette  of  same.  A 
fine  dotted  net  dicky,  with  blue  satin  binding  at 
the  upper  edge,  was  worn  with  this  frock.  A 
charming  feature  was  the  very  large  white  linen 
medalions  that  trimmed  the  deep  sailor  collar, 
placed  so  as  to  form  a  band  all  around  it.  They 
were  of  different  designs  placed  to  alternate,  and 
every  other  one  was  square  and  oblong.  The  skirt 
was  stitched  up  in  innumerable  rows  to  about  ten 
inches,  when  the  linen  medalions  formed  a  wide 
band  as  trimming  around  the  whole.  The  front 
gore,  very  narrow,  had  the  medalions  up  each  side. 
This  would  be  particularly  swell  for  a  yachting 
frock.  The  sleeves  were  three-quarter  length,  with 
one  large  medalion  at  the  finishing  on  each  cuff. 
As  our  outing  season  is  now  in  full  swing,  these 
gowns  will  be  appropriate  for  many  occasions,  while

Two-piece  Linen  Suits, 
will  Mil  another  want.  Austrian  art  linen  is  very 
much  used  in  the  high-grade  suits,  as  it  dues  u..t 
wrinkle  like  the  cheaper  grades  and  keeps  its 
shape  ami  launders  much  nicer.  So  many  innova- 
tions are  seen  now,  in  combination  with  the  dif 
fereut  materials,  t  hat  one  is  given  a  wide  range 
in  selecting  different  gowns  and  suits.  Black  satin 
is  used  very  much  for  the  sailor  or  round  collar 
and    deej>    cuffs. 

The  narrow  collar  al  the  back,  with  wide  reveres 
extending  nearly  to  the  waist  line  of  the  coat  in 
front,  is  a  newer  feature  than  tin-  long  roll  in 
front,  though  that  is  still  very  popular.  Cretonne 
is  very  much  used  for  collars  with  reveres,  and 
inserted    in    the    cuffs.      Tapestry    is    another    nice 


material  to  combine  with  satin  of  any  shade,  to 
contrast  with  tin-  linen  upon  which  it  is  used,  if 
i  ho  garment  is  of  :i  Light  brown  Linen,  a  very  dark 
seal  brown  satin  with  which  to  edge  the  cretonne 
or  tapestry  collar  and  cuffs  will  be  effective  and 
show  up  to  good  advantage.  L:ir^e  buttons  still 
continue  in  favoT  For  dosing  shorl  coats,  one  to 
four  being   use. I.  according  to   the   mode.      Another 

nal  i,\    idea    is   i  he   «  ide    white    mil \     bra  id    used 

with  the  satin  collar  and  having  tiny  gilt  buttons 
inserted  between  the  rows  of  the  braid.  The  nar- 
row braid  with  the  gill  buttons  is  used  on  the 
cuffs,  and  brightens  up  tin-  dark  satin  wonderfully. 
Maize  Linen,  combined  with  blaclt  satin  for  collar 
and  cuffs,  wit  h  tapestry  used  as  a  band  to 
linish  (lie  collar  or  inserted  with  the  satin  on  the 
edge  as  :i  band,  an.l  black  sal  in  ,■,,>.  <-i  <<<i  hultons 
to  close  the  coat,  form  a  pretfrj  combination.  Many 
skirts  have  the  inverted  side  pleats,  and  the  back 
gore  is  stitched  in  narrow  pleats  from  the  waist 
fine  to  the  bottom  of  the  skirt.  A  plain  wide  fronl 
panel  is  the  mode  for  this  stylo.  There  are  also 
severe  tailored  models  in  this  Austrian  art  linen 
that   have    qo1    a    particle   of   trimming. 

White  with  narrow  black  stripes,  and  vice  versa, 
is  displayed  with  just  the  stitching  to  finish.  There 
are  also  many  other  different  shades,  to  suit  one's 
fancy.  For  the  more  elaborate  models,  Wistaria 
linen,  with  a  darker  shade  of  velvet  for  collar 
and  cuffs,  and  buttons  of  smoked  pearl  with  velvet 
loit  ton  holes,  is  a  very  chic  model.  Irish  lace  col- 
lars are  worn  over  the  velvet  ones,  if  desired. 
Pool  pleats  are  also  used  in  the  side  gores  of  many 
skirts.  Light  blues,  tans,  browns  and  apricot, 
shades  are  all  in   vogue  now.     In  the  line  of 

New  Ideas  in  Millinery, 
we  lini  .no  wafted  over  from  "  Merrie  England," 
called  the  "Coronation  Hood.''  It  is  really  very 
pretty  and  will  probably  survive  the  momentous 
event  if  suggests.  Velvet  or  satin  is  used  for  the 
full  puffed  crown  and  Yedda  straw  for  the  brim. 
Extra  large  milans,  with  low  crowns,  are  trimmed 
in  ostrich  bauds  of  both  black  and  white,  or  most 
any    color    one    desires. 

Those  soft  felt  hats  I  spoke  of  in  connection  with 
khaki  suits,  come  in  all  the  delicate  shades  to 
match    the    linen    suits.

July,    1911 


CrKAND  PRESIDENT'S  OFFICIAL  NOTICE. 


No.   1. 

Los  Angeles,  July  1,  1911. 

To  the  Officers  and  Members  of  the  Subordinate 
Parlors  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West — 
Dear  Sirs  and  Brothers:  As  Grand  President,  I 
send  greetings  to  each  and  every  member  of  our  fra- 
ternity, and  thank  you  for  the  honor  conferred  upon 
me  as'  well  as  the  trust  reposed  in  me,  by  selecting 
me  as  the  head  of  this  greatest  of  fraternal  associa- 
tions. 

It  shall  be  my  endeavor  to  increase  the  member- 
ship of  our  Order  by  strengthening  Parlors  now  in 
existence,  rather  than  by  attempting  to  multiply 
the  number  of  Parlors,  and  I  call  for  the  assistance 
of  all  members  of  our  Order  to  make  an  individual 
effort  to  improve  conditions  either  in  their  own  Par- 
lor or  Parlors  in  their  vicinity. 

I  sincerely  believe  that  the  greatest  success  of 
our  Order  depends  upon  an  unselfish  policy  on  the 
part  of  all  members  to  live  up  to  the  principles  of 
our  Oraer  and  put  into  practice  those  things  for 
which  our  Order,  through  the  endorsement  given  by 
the  Grand  Parlor,  stands,  and  which  are  impressed 
upon  us  at  our  altars. 

I  trust  that  all  Parlors  will  devote  their  time  and 
talents  to  preserving  the  historic  landmarks  in  their 
respective  sections,  and  in  doing  commendable  work 
along  the  broad  lines  of  carrying  out  the  sentimental 
purposes  of  our  beloved  Order. 

Let  us  all  work  during  the  coming  year,  shoulder 
fco  shouider,  with  the  common  aim  of  placing  our 
Order  in  the  very  first  place  of  fraternalism  in  our 
native  State.  California  needs  our  best  endeavors, 
and  I  bespeak  the  assistance  of  all  members  in 
carrying  out  those  things  which  tend  to  its  uplift 
and  commercial  development. 

Respectfully  and  fraternally.

West,    and  to  the  Constitution   thereof. 

Resolved,  That  the  Board  of  Grand  Officers  of  the  Grand 
Parlor  of  the  Native  Sons  ofc  the  Golden  West  be,  and 
they  are  hereby  directed  to  accept  conveyance  of  the  prop-

published  monthly  a  directory  of  the  Subordinate  Parolrs 
of  the  Order,  with  dates  and  places  of  meetings,  and  names 
of  presidents  and  names  and  addresses  of  recording  aecre 
taries,  and  pay  for  said  advertisements  the  total  sum  of 
one  thousand  dollars,  in  equal  monthly  installments,  com- 
mencing June  1,  1911,  upon  condition  that  a  copy  of  said 
magazine  is  regularly  mailed  free  of  other  charge  to  each

also  print  therein,  without  other  charge,  when  duly  re- 
quested, the  official  announcements  of  the  Grand  President 
and  Grand  Secretary,  upon  copy  therefor  being  furnished 
to  the  magazine;  provided  that  this  endorsement  shall 
determine,  and  this  contract  of  advertising  shall  terminate, 
upon  the  publication  in  the  editorial  or  news  columns  of 
said    magazine   of   any    matter   of   partisan   politics. 


Resolved,  That  this  Grand  Parlor  approves  the  efforts 
made  by  the  San  Francisco  Parlors  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West  in  attempting  to  have  the  "Ports- 
mouth" saved  for  California,  to  perpetuate  and  maintain 
a  monument  of  the  early  history  of  this  State;  and 
further 

Resolved,  That  we  applaud  the  efforts  of  California's 
representatives  at  Washington  in  assisting  this  movement 
in    Congress;    and,    further 

Resolved.  That  we  extend  to  the  chairman  of  the  Naval 
Committee  of  the  United  States  Senate,  the  thanks  of  this 
Grand  Parlor  for  introducing  and  having  passed  a  bill 
appropriating  $25,000.00  for  the  repair  and  fitting  for 
sending    to    San    Francisco   of    the    Portsmouth. 


Whereas,  To  the  Panama-Pacific  Exposition  of  1915,  the 
people  of  all  nations  of  the  globe  will  journey,  largely  for 
the  purpose,  undoubtedly,  of  seeing  and  visiting  California 
as  a  State — a  land  that  has  for  many  years  sounded  a  call 
through  every  clime  where  dwelt  a  heart  that  could  be 
stirred  by  the  romance  of  its  history,  and  eye  that  could 
lighten  at  the  pictured  glories  of  its  scenic  beauties,  or  a 
mind  that  could  awaken  at  the  tale  of  the  wonders  of  its 
wealth  or  the  story  of  the  triumphs  of  its  fertility.  In 
consequence,  our  State  will  be  upon  exhibition  in  the  year 
1915  as  never  before.  It  may  be  said  with  truth,  that 
during  that  period  California's  audience  will  be  the  whole 
world.  She  must  not  fail  to  profit  by  this  glorious  oppor- 
tunity to  tin-  full.  Every  section  of  our  State,  east  and 
west,  north  and  south,  must  gather  at  the  exposition  in  San 
Francisco  an  adequate  and  a  fitting  il isplay  of  its  worth, 
its  beauty  and  all  its  excellence.  To  California  and  to 
itself  it  owes  such  action  as  a  duty.  Happily,  the  last  Leg- 
islature has  provided  a  way  for  every  county  in  the  State 
to  be  represented  at  the  exposition.  It  has  authorized  a 
tax  levy  of  six  cents  on  the  hundred  for  a  period  of  four 
years.      Now,   therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West,  in  Santa  Cruz  assembled,  hereby  instructs 
tin  .lei  gates  of  the  Subordinate  Parlors  gathered  here,  to 
exert  their  best  endeavors  and  enlist  their  full  interest, 
when  they  have  returned  to  their  homes  throughout  the 
State,  to  the  end  that  their  respective  counties  shall  re- 
spond to  the  unexampled  opportunity  offered  to  them  and 
to  California.  And  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West  calls  with  full  confidence  upon  the  counties 
of  our  State  to  vie  with  one  another  in  a  laudable  contest 
that  will  best  show  wherein  our  State  is  great  by  making 
evident  wherein  the  county  is  superior. 


Whereas,  California  stands  as  an  empire  upon  the  West- 
ern edge  of  a  vast  continent,— and  her  geographical  posi- 
tion places  her  far  remote  from  the  teeming  centers  of 
population  and  far  distant  from  our  nation's  great  marts 
of    trade,    and 

Whereas,  In  consequence,  she  can  never  attain  her  full 
development  nor  enjoy  the  prosperity  that  is  rightly  hers 
unless  her  own  people  encourage  the  development  of  her 
highest  possible  activities  by  faithfully  supporting  and 
loyally  patronizing  her  home  products  and  her  home  in- 
dustry;    therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  that  the  Grand  Parlor  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West,  in  session  at  Santa  Cruz  assembled, 
hereby  expresses  its  sympathy  with  the  purposes  of  the 
Home  Industry  League  of  California,  commends  its  activity 
and  hopes  for  its  full  success; 

And  Furthermore,  We  call  upon  every  Native  Sou  to 
champion  its  cause  to  the  end  that  he  may,  in  great  things 
and  in  small,  evidence  his  loyalty  to  California,  California's 
products  and  California's  manufactures.  In  this  way  will 
he  best  perform  his  duty  to  his  State  and  to  his  country. 
The  welfare  and  safety  of  our  Union,  the  highest  develop- 
ment of  the  country  at  large,  the  best  assurance  of  its 
stability,  and  the  chief  safeguard  of  its  security,  demand 
that  here  upon  the  shore  of  the  Great  Pacific  Ocean, — the 
sea  of  destiny,  here  upon  the  western  frontier  of  the  Great 
Republic,— there  shall  be  built  up  a  large,  numerous  and 
powerful  commou  wealth, — strong,  prosperous,  productive 
and  resourceful, — versed  in  the  arts  and  skilled  in  manu- 
factures, able  to  respond  at  once  to  the  interests  of  its  own 
immediate  population,  or,  when  the  occasion  arise-,  to 
respond  to  the  call  of  the  Nation's  need. 


Resolved,  That  a  special  per  capita  tax  of  seven  and 
one-half  cents  be  levied  to  support  the  Fellowship  in 
Pacific  Coast  History  at  the  University  of  California 
created  pursuant  to  the  resolution  of  the  Grand  Parlor 
of    1910; 

Resolved  further,  That  a  further  special  per  capita  tax 
of   seven   and   one-half   cents   be   levied   to   create    a   second 


Grand  Secretary.    N.S.G.W.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


July,    1911 


BUILT  THE  FIRST 

HYDRAULIC  TUNMEL 

Surrounded  by  his  family  at  his  home  near  Alton, 
Humboldt  County,  Holla  Bryant,  for  fifty-nine  years 
i  resident  of  California,  passed  to  that  home  whence 
no  traveler  returneth,  April  9th,  respected  and  hon- 
ored by  all  who  knew  him.  He  was  born  July  15, 
182S,  and  was  the  son  of  Seth  Thomas  Bryant  and 
Lodoski   Pierce  Bryant. 

Among  the  papers  of  Mr.  Bryant  was  found  the 
following  brief  and  uncompleted  autobiographical 
sketch  of  his  life,  in  his  own  handwriting:  "I  was 
born  in  Richmond,  Vermont.  I  lived  on  the  farm  of 
my  parents  until  20  years  of  age,  and  then  followed 
carpentering  until  the  winter  of  1S52.  My  eldest 
brother,  Calvin,  and  I  turned  our  steps  westward, 
sailing  from  New  York  City,  May  2,  1852.  We 
landed  at  Aspinwall  the  14th  day.  We  went  twenty 
miles  on  the  cars  to  the  Chagres  River,  then  took 
passage  on  a  fleet  of  fiat  boats  rowed  by  the  natives, 
and  reached  a  place  called  Hobogon  the  next  day  at 
noon.  The  transportation  company  had  only  pack 
animals  to  carry  the  baggage  and  women.  We  lay 
over  until  the  next  morning,  and  took  an  early  start 
for  a  forty-mile  walk,  reaching  Panama  at  sunset. 
We  stayed  three  days,  sailed  on  the  steamboat 
Northerner,  arriving  at  San  Francisco  June  16th. 
I  went  to  the  North  Yuba  River,  twelve  miles  below 
Downieville,  and  engaged  in  mining.  Here  for  the 
first  time  I  met  Chris  Luther,  who  was  to  be  a  life- 
long friend  and  companion.  December,  1853,  I  went 
to  Camptonville,   Yuba  County. 

"In  these  days  all  hydraulic  mines  were  worked 
through  an  open  cut.  One  company  at  an  adjoin- 
ing claim  had  a  cut  150  feet  deep,  in  which  five  men 
were  killed.  I  organized  a  company  to  open  a  claim 
and  run  a  cut  until  it  was  thirty  feet  deep.  My 
companion  and  myself  were  working  in  the  cut  when 
suddenly  we  heard  the  warning  shout  of  Charles 
Luther.  Looking  up,  we  saw  the  bank  caving  in, 
and  in  making  our  escape  were  caught  in  another 
slide  and  buried  up  to  our  armpits."  Here  the 
narrative  suddenly  breaks  off,  Mr.  Bryant  not  liv- 
ing to  complete  it.  Mr.  Luther  crossed  the  ridge 
some  distance  to  get  help,  and  when  he  returned 
found  Mr.  Bryant  safe  on  the  wall  of  the  cut.  The 
running  water  used  in  the  cut  for  sluicing  had 
been  dammed  up  by  the  slide  and  had  washed  the 
earth  from  around  him,  thus  allowing  him  to  escape. 
His  companion  was  less  fortunate,  being  quite 
badly   hurt. 

To  Mr.  Bryant  belongs  the  distinction  and  honor 
of  having  built  the  first  tunnel  for  hydraulic  min- 
ing in  California.  This  tunnel  was  500  feet  long, 
and  heavily  timbered  as  a  precautionary  measure 
against  accidents,  which  were  of  daily  occurrence. 

In  1856  Mr.  Bryant  was  married  to  Elizabeth  J. 
Mallory,  in  Yuba  County.  He  continued  to  live 
there  until  1858  when,  in  company  with  his  wife 
and  child,  he  sailed  from  San  Francisco  for  Hum- 
boldt County  on  the  steamer  Santa  Cruz.  Owing 
to  a  rough  sea,  the  steamer  did  not  enter  the  bay, 
but  landed  her  passengers  at  Trinidad.  They  went 
immediately  to  Eel  Eiver  Valley,  and  Mr.  Bryant 
bought  the  farm  which  had  since  been  his  home. 
Mr.  and  Mrs.  Bryant  were  the  parents  of  eleven 
children,  the  widow  and  seven  of  the  children  sur- 
viving him.  The  children  are  Mrs.  Chas.  Luther  of 
Eureka,  Mrs.  E.  E.  Cornell,  C.  E.  Bryant,  W.  M. 
Bryant,  A.  B.  Bryant,  Rolla  Bryant,  Jr.,  and  Edna 
Bryant  of  Alton.  Mr.  Bryant  also  leaves  one  sis- 
ter, Mrs.  Eliza  Drew  of  Boston,  Massachusetts,  and 
three  brothers,  Geo.  E.  Bryant  of  Lowell,  Massachu- 
setts, James  H.  Bryant  of  Williston,  Vermont,  and 
William  K.  Bryant  of  Richmond,  Vermont. 

Rolla  Bryant  was  a  splendid  type  of  the  Pioneers 
of  the  State  to  whom  we  owe  so  much.  He  was 
kindly  in  his  disposition,  charitable  in  his  relations 
to  his  fellow-man,  and  just  to  all.  In  his  business 
dealings,  he  was  the  soul  of  honor.  He  has  left  a 
name  and  memory  that  will  ever  be  cherished  by 
his  family  and  admired  by  his  friends.  Another 
Pioneer  has  left  us  to  join  the  noble  band  to  whom 
California  owes  so  much;  may  his  sleep  be  peaceful 
in  the  land  he  loved,  in  the  land  he  helped  to 
build. — (Communicated.)

Jasper  Jurgens,  Sr.,  who  arrived  in  California  in 
1849,  died  recently  at  Jurgens,  El  Dorado  County. 
He  rained  with  Marshall  at  Sutter 's  sawmill  in 
Coloma,  and  had  resided  in  El  Dorado  County  for 
more  than  sixty  years.  A  widow  and  three  children 
survive.

NEVADA   CITY   PIONEERS   ENTER- 
TAINED BY  SONS  AND  DAUGHTERS. 

Pioneer  men  and  women  who  came_  to  California 
[trior  to  January  1,  1S61,  and  who  are  residents  of 
Nevada  township  at  the  present  time,  were  the 
guests  of  Hydraulic  Parlor,  No.  56,  N.  S.  G.  W., 
and  Laurel  Parlor,  No.  6,  N.  D.  G.  W.,  of  Nevada

gan  presided  and  welcomed  the  guests  on  behalf

RUINS   OF   OLD   MILL  UNCOVERED. 

(From  the  Redlands  Facts,  June  6th.) 
Forest  Home  has  a  new  attraction.  It  has  been 
discovered  that  the  resort  is  located  on  the  site 
of  the  old  Mormon  colony  of  sixty  or  more  years 
ago.  In  doing  some  work  while  clearing  the  prop- 
erty, Mr.  Culver  unearthed  portions  of  the  old 
mill,  bake  oven  and  stone  fireplace  that  were  built 
by  the  Mormons  many  years  ago.  The  wall  was 
disclosed  to  view  by  the  washing  of  the  streams  in 
the  canyon.  It  was  early  in  the  thirties  that  the 
Mormons  settled  in  Mill  Creek  canyon  and  con- 
structed a  sawmill  on  the  site  of  what  is  now 
Forest  Home.  They  made  lumber  which  was  used 
in  the  construction  of  homes  in  the  valley.  The 
mill  was  last  operated  by  Judge  Willis,  father  of 
Attorney  H.  M.  Willis,  of  Redlands.  In  1848  it 
was  washed  away  by  a  big  freshet  and  was  never 
rebuilt.

AT  THE  PRICE  OF  HONOR  AND  INTEGRITY 

(Address    Delivered    at    Santa    Cruz    Big    Tree    Grove,   June   14th,    by   Superior   Judge   MAURICE   T.  DOOLING  of  Hollister,  Past  Grand  President.  N.S.G.W.) 


N  RISING  TO  SPEAK  TO  THE  SUB- 
ject  Unit  has  been  assigned  me,  I 
do  so  with  the  sincere  regret  that 
it  did  not  fall  to  the  lot  of  some 
one  abler  than  myself;  to  one  more 
sympathetic,  it  eould  not,  for  all  my 
uays  I  have  been  a  wondering  ad 
mirer  of  the  history,  the  marvels, 
and  the  glory  of  our  State.  The  sub 
T'Mlfe  ject,  too,  is  broad,  and  should  be 
«■  an    inspiring   one;    yet    far   too   com- 

prehensive to  permit  more  than 
passing  note  of  some  few  ideas  suggested  by  it  in 
the  limited  time  proper  to  be  consumed  upon  an 
occasion  like  the  present.  Nor  do  I  care  to  dwell 
particularly  upon  the  fact  of  material  power,  and 
progress,  and  prosperity,  although  as  to  these,  no 
nit -re  striking  instance  may  be  found  in  all  the 
world   than   lies  at   our  own   door. 

For  the  Mission  system  had  scarcely  fallen  a 
victim  to  secular  interference,  when  the  discovery 
of  gold  brought  hither  that  cosmopolitan  popula- 
tion which  has  made  of  the  Californian  a  distinct 
type  a umng  tne  people  of  America.  The  advent 
of  so  many  people,  in  so  brief  a  space  of  time,  to 
a  new  country  devoid  of  civil  government,  and 
so  remote  from  the  centers  of  civilization,  created 
conditions  never  before  existing — and  which  may 
never  exist  again — and  gave  rise  to  that  wondrous 
period  whose  story  seems  far  better  fitted  for  the 
tales  of  romance  than  for  the  chronicles  of  history. 
Society  here  was  wholly  unorganized,  and  no  laws 
were  in  existence,  save  such  as  were  upheld  by 
custom  and  tradition.  The  title  to  property  of  in- 
calculable value  depended  for  the  most  part  upon 
local  customs,  and  enterprises  of  the  greatest  mag 
nitude  were  entered  into  and  carried  on  with  no 
legal  machinery  in  existence  to  provide  for  their 
protection,  or  even  for  the  enforcement  of  the  sim- 
plest contract. 

In  this  distant  land,  with  civilization  in  Ms 
infancy,  with  population  sparce  and  widely  dis- 
seminated, with  industries  few  in  number,  and 
opportunities  for  communication  with  the  rest  of 
t lie  country  slow  and  uncertain,  the  Pioneers 
worked  out  their  destiny,  and  while  their  trials  and 
perils  and  hardships  can  never  be  overlooked  or 
forgotten,  yet  the  great  State  which  they  evolved 
from  the  chaotic  conditions  encountered  here  must 
ever  remain  their  true  and  lasting  monument.  For 
the  time  was,  within  the  memory  of  some  here 
present,  when  this  great  territory,  so  vast  in  extent, 
where  every  variety  of  climate  exists  and  where 
now  every  manner  of  industry  finds  a  borne, — within 
whose  boundaries  a  constant  effort  must  now  be 
made  to  reconcile  varied  and  clashing  interests, — 
was  a  remote  wilderness  enveloped  in  solitudes  and 
peopled  by  savages,  and  where  the  waters  of  the 
mighty  ocean  bordering  on  these  extended  shores 
ebbed  and  flowed  with  their  ceaseless  motion,  un- 
disturbed  by    the  ships  of  commerce. 


The  enterprising  and  energetic  spirit  of  our  Argo- 
nauts, however,  turned  the  full  tide  of  immigra- 
tion hither.  The  mountains  swarmed  with  the  busy 
gold-seekers,  the  valleys  yielded  their  hidden  stores, 
cities  arose  as  if  by  magic,  agriculture,  mining. 
mechanic  arts,  all  sprang  into  being,  making  Cali 
t'ornia  today,  in  point  of  wealth  and  natural  re- 
sources, an  empire  in  itself;  while  the  Pacific 
Ocean,  whose  waters  beat  forever  on  our  golden 
shores,  is  dotted  with  the  ships  of  all  nations  and 
enlivened  by  the  busy  commerce  of  the  world.  Here 
on  the  western  limits  of  the  continent  whose  eastern 
border  was  the  birthplace  of  our  liberty,  a  wilder- 
ness at  that  time  belonging  to  a  foreign  power  and 


JUDGE    MAURICE   T.    DOOLING,    at    Holliate 
i \i-i    Grand    President,    N.S.G.W. 


separated  by  miles  of  prairie  from  the  cradle  of 
the  Republic,  has  sprung  up  as  pari  of  thai  greal 
commonwealth,  and  in  the  shorl  space  of  a  single 
generation  a  dignified  and  influential  State,  em- 
bracing within  its  borders  those  mighty  magnets  of 
civilized  communities,  of  cultivated  and  prosperous 
cities,  of  energetic  and  ambitious  populations,  of 
productive  mines,  of  prolific  fields  of  agriculture,  of 

pastoral    wc-iltli.   of  vineyards   unsurpassed    in   beauty 

and  fruitfulness,  of  enterprise,  of  industry—of  all 
that  is  embraced  in  the  designation.  Empire,  in  its 
broadest    and    most    comprehensive   sense,    and    which 


now    constitutes    our    Golden    State — -a    formidable, 

majestic  ami  wealthy  rival,  in  commercial  great 
Hess,  of  any  of  the  oldest,  mosl  enterprising,  and 
mi. -i    prog ressi ve  of  her  sisters. 

And  these  are  but  few  of  many  phases  of  our 
State's  unbounded  progress.  So  that  upon  her 
greatness  and  prosperity,  in  the  material  order, 
there  is  m.  need  to  dwell;  but  I  do  desire  to  bring 
to  mind  some  considerations  in  the  moral  order. 
bearing  upon  her  future  welfare,  familiar  indeed 
to  all.  but  too  frequently  overlooked  or  ignored 
amidst  the  cares  of  life  tnat  daily  press  Upon  US 
Surrounded  as  wo  must  ever  be  by  the  most  per- 
plexing questions  of  Society-  and  State,  we  must 
depend  for  their  solution  upon  the  intelligence  and 
morality  which  are  the  natural  fruit--  of  correct 
mental  and  moral  training,  and  which  should  give 
to  us  the  undying  and  enviable  power  of  a  just  and 
cultivated  people. 

And  if,  in  these  later  years,  we  have  lost  sight. 
for  a  time,  of  the  lofty  ideals  which  true  loyalty 
demands;  if  we  have  dissipated  the  atmosphere  of 
moral  greatness  wherein  it  most  particularly  thrives; 

if  we  have  lowered  the  standard  by  which  OUT  COn- 
dud  should  be  measured  alike  in  private  life  and 
public  affairs,  it  is  because  we  have  been  training 
the  intellectual  powers  alone,  at  the  expense  of  the 
moral  faculties.  The  true  and  lasting  prosperity  of 
our  State  does  not  depend  upon  vast  individual  for 
tunes  and  the  opportunities  to  acquire  them,  but 
upon  the  intelligence,  morality,  and  patriotism  of 
the  great   body  of  its  people. 

And  to  resume  these  conditions,  we  must  begin 
al  the  foundation  and  develop,  through  the  integrity 
of  1 1"'  individual,  a  sensitive  public  conscience 
which  will  uphold  the  law  and  respect  the  rights 
of  others,  not  from  policy,  but  from  principle;  and 
a  people  who.  even  though  they  have  the  faculty 
Oj  amassing  wealth,  will  also  have  the  morality  to 
disregard  all  considerations  of  advantage  or  dis- 
advantage and  measure  every  action,  every  pro- 
ceeding, every  proposition,  bj  the  unvarying 
standard  of  Right.  To  the  young  men  and  young 
women  here  1  therefore  say,  with  all  the  earnest- 
ness that  is  in  me:  Cling  fast  to  your  high  ideals. 
lor  your  State  has  need  of  them,  as  she  has  need 
of  you.  Let  no  rough  contact  with  the  world  de- 
prive  you  of  them,  for  the  world  has  nothing  to 
give  you  in  return  that  can  compensate  you  foi 
their  loss,  Lei  not  your  vision  be  obscured,  nor 
yourselves  carried  away,  by  the  growing  and  de- 
moralizing tendency  of  the  age  to  make  the 
acquisition  of  wealth  the  only  object  of  existence, 
and  its  lavish  expenditure  the  sweet  symbol  of  suc- 
cess. Remember  always  that  wealth,  however 
great,  and  position,  however  exalted,  are  dearly 
bought  ai  the  price  of  honor  and  integrity;  and 
that  in  ALL  TIIK  VAST  SCHEME  OF  "NATURE 
THERE  IS  Xi)  LEGITIMATE  PLACE  PRO 
VIDED  FOR  THE  FAITHLESS  AND  DISHON 
EST    MAN.

A  iid  remember  also  that  you  will  best  serve  your 
Mate,  as  you  will  best  serve  yourselves,  by  laboring 
with  all  the  energy  of  head  and  heart  and  hand 
to  bring  about  a  return  to  the  old  ideals;  to  restore 
the  justice,  simplicity  and  equality  of  the  early 
mining  period;  to  set  up  again  the  splendid  stan- 
dard then  in  use,  when  a  man  was  measured  by 
what  he  did  and  not  by  what  he  had;  to  prevent 
tiie  introduction  here  of  those  stern  destructions  of 
class  and  caste  which,  in  other  and  less  favored 
hinds,  have  beaten  down  the  aspirations  of  many 
a  noble  heart  and  closed  the  doors  of  opportunity 
to  every  one  not  fortunately  born;  to  realize  for 
yourselves,  and  impress  that  realization  upon  others, 
that  success  in  life  is  not  always  to  be  measured  by 
the  wealth  that  is  accumulated,  or  the  height  that 
is  reached  in  the  temple  of  fame,  but  that  there  is 
another  success,  less  showy  perhaps,  but  oftener  far 
more  substantial  than  either — the  success  attendant 
upon  an  honest,  active  and  well-spent  life,  and  that 
while  it  may  not  be  within  the  reach  of  all  of  us 
to  ac*~eve  the  apparent  success  that  is  measured  by 
wealth  ana  position,  it  is  within  the  power  of  every 
one  to  compel  the  real  triumph  wnieii  follows  an 
upright,  industrious  and  well-regulated  life. 

With  our  lot  cast  here  upon  a  virgin  soil,  the  nat- 
ural instincts  of  our  people  and  the  materialistic 
tendency  of  the  age  will  impel  them  to  develop  the 
resources  of  the  land;  to  foster  its  material  indus- 
tries and  send  their  products  over  the  waves  of  every 
sea;  to  string  the  country  with  wires  to  bear  mes- 
sages of  weal  or  woe,  of  war  or  peace,  of  commerce, 
charity  and  ~-ou  will,  from  man  to  man;  to  concen- 
trate the  force  of  the  mountain  torrents  and  bear 
it  eaptive  for  miles,  to  be  at  last  converted  into  light 
and  power  for  our  cities  and  villages;  to  divert  the 
waters  of  our  mighty  rivers  and  give  them  to  the 
deserts,  making  the  waste  places  fruitful,  and  the 
fruitful  abundant;  to  dive  into  the  recesses  of  the 
earth  and  compel  its  treasures  to  minister  to  their 
comfort,  their  knowledge  and  their  progress.  All 
this  will  be  uone,  in  fact,  is  being  done  without  any 
strain  upon  our  orders.  Their  real  work  lies  above 
and  beyond  this  ever-widening  circle  of  material 
acuievement.  it  enjoins  upon  them  the  sublime  duty 
of  laboring  disinterestedly  in  the  moral  order  to  pro- 
mote, develop  and  improve  the  institutions  founded 
by  our  Pioneer  Fathers,  to  supply  the  defects  and 
cure  the  imperfections  that  time  and  experience 
Lave  discovered  in  their  administration,  to  correct 
the  mistakes  and  reform  the  abuses  that  human 
weakness  has  introduced  and  human  depravity  ex- 
aggerated, and  thus  renewing  the  glories  of  the  past 
and  combining  them  with  the  advantages  of  the 
present  and  the  opportunities  of  the  future,  so  to 
labor  as  to  make  our  beloved  State  first  in  intelli- 
gence, first  in  morals,  and  first  in  the  happiness,  con- 
tentment and  prosperity  of  even  the  humblest  of  its 
people.

FIFTY  YEARS  AGO   STORY 

AWAKENED    OLD   MEMORIES. 

'ine  following  letter  has  been  received  from  a 
subscriber  to  The  Grizzly  Bear  at  Selma.  in  which 
additional  interesting  light  is  thrown  upon  the  ac- 
count of  the  beaching  of  the  river  steamer  ' '  Ne- 
vada,' '  as  recounted  in  our  ' '  Fifty  Years  Ago ' ! 
columns   last   month: 

Selma,  California,  July  4th. 

Editor  Grizzly  Bear:  In  the  July  Grizzly  Bear, 
on  page  three,  last  column,  is  an  item  about  the 
opposition  steamer  ' '  Nevada,  * '  that  awakened  old 
memories.  The  ' '  Nevada ' '  ran  as  an  opposition 
boat  between  San  Francisco  and  Sacramento  un- 
til about  1867,  when  it  was  snagged  about  two 
miles  above  the  town  of  Rio  Vista  and  beached  on 
the  .east  side  of  the  river,  just  below  the  mouth  of 
Steamboat  Slough,  where  its  timbers  still  may  be 
seen  at  low  water  in  the  river. 

The  owner  claimed,  at  the  time,  that  the  pilot 
had  been  bribed  by  the  old-line  company  to  wreck 
the  boat.  How  ever  this  may  be,  it  was  beached 
and.  never  floated  again.  The  hull  was  put  together 
with  copper  spikes,  and  all  of  the  woodwork  that 
would  burn  was  burned  away  to  the  water  level 
in  a  few  years  by  junk  collectors,  to  get  the  copper 
spikes.  Respectfully.

TRUE  CALIFORNIANS  ALWAYS   DO. 

The  Native  Sons  at  the  recent  meeting  of  the 
Grand  Parlor  in  Santa  Cruz  adopted  a  resolution 
suggesting  that  Calif ornians  purchase  goods  that 
are  made  in  California,  so  far  as  possible. 

True  Californians  usually  do. 

It's  those  people  who  delight  in  being  the  caudal 
appendage  to  the  snobocracy  of  foreign  countries 
that  are  always  looking  for  foreign-made  goods.  It 
is  gratifying  to  know  that  the  Native  Sons  are  loyal 
to  the  interests  of  California,  the  empire  State  of 
the  Pacific  Coast. — Suisun  Courier. 


ILLIAM  M.  BOGGS,  ONE  OF  THE 
State's  oldest  Pioneers,  died  recently 
at  Napa,  and  an  account  of  his  pass- 
ing was  chronicled  in  these  columns, 
with  brief  mention  as  to  his  associa- 
tion with  the  early  history  of  Cali- 
fornia. Deceased  now  rests,  along- 
side his  wife,  in  the  cemetery  at 
Napa,  Sonoma  County.  Through  the 
kindness  of  Major  Edwin  A.  Sher- 
man of  Oakland,  who  was  an  early- 
day  associate  of  Mr.  Boggs,  much 
additional  information  concerning  deceased  has  been 
brought  to  our  attention,  and  no  doubt  will  be  of 
interest  to  all  those  who  are  concerned  with  the 
State's  early-day  citizens  and  their  deeds.  It  has 
been  generally  published  that  William  M.  Boggs 
was  a  member  of  the  famous  Bear  Flag  Party,  but 
this  is  erroneous,  inasmuch  as  he  was,  at  the  time 
of  the  Bear  Flag  War,  enroute  across  the  plains 
from  Missouri,  with  his  father,  an  ex-governor  of 
that   state. 

It  was  in  the  spring  of  1846  that  Governor  L.  W. 
Boggs  left  Missouri  for  California,  accompanied  by 
his  whole  family,  which  included  William  M.  Boggs, 
recently  deceased,  and  his  wife,  also  now  deceased, 
whom  he  had  wedded  just  prior  to  the  departure. 
The  Boggs  train  first,  with  other  parties,  joined 
Major  Russell's  train  bound  for  Oregon,  and  traveled 
with  it  until  those  bound  for  California,  separated 
from   it,   which  latter  again   divided  by  the   Reed- 


So  Governor  Boggs  accepted  his  kind  offer  and 
the  next  morning  the  vaqueros  were  there  early  with 
their  teams,  and  General  Vaiiejo,  mounted,  led  the 
way  to  his  Petaluma  raneho,  where  Governor  Boggs 
and  his  large  family  were  comfortably  housed. 

a  few  days  after,  General  Vallejo  paid  them 
another  visit,  and  it  happened  when  there  was  a 
sudden  increase  of  the  census  in  William  M.  Boggs' 
family.  A  boy  baby  was  born,  but  apparently  dying. 
General  Vallejo  asked  if  they  had  any  objections  to 
his  baptizing  it,  and  they  said  "No." 

"What  name  will  you  give  it?"  he  asked,  and 
Wm.  M.  Boggs  said,  "Give  it  your  name,  General," 
and  he  baptized  it  "Muriano  Guadalupe  Vallejo 
Boggs, ' '  but  did  it  very  quickly,  as  the  child,  to 
all  appearances,  was  dead. 

General  Vallejo  nad  a  sheep  immediately  killed, 
the  skin  taken  off  as  quick  as  a  shirt,  and  while 
warm,  he  wrapped  the  little,  apparently  dead  baby 
in  it,  which  renewed  the  youngster's  lease  of  life. 
General  Vallejo  claimed  that  it  was  a  miracle. 

That  baby  is  now  nearly  65  years  old,  with  a  large 
family  of  his  own,  and  is  living  in  Salem,  Oregon. 
The  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  of  Petaluma 
have  now  become  the  owners  of  the  building  where 
that  baby  boy,  the  first  lamb  in  William  M.  Boggs' 
family,  had  his  first  blanket,  unwoven  and  warm, 
right  from  the  back  of  the  sheep. 

William  M.  Boggs  was  the  last  member  of  the 
first  City  Council  of  Sonoma  of  1851-2-3,  to  pass 
away.     At  that  time,  Major  Sherman  was  the  first

Donner  party,  which  took  the  unfortunate  way  of 
the  Hastings  eut-olf.  William  M.  Boggs  was  then 
made  captain  of  that  train,  followed  the  old  trail, 
crossed  the  Sierra  Nevadas,  and  arrived  at  Sutter's 
Fort.  Thence  they  proceeded  to  Sonoma  where,  in 
November,  1846,  they  camped  by  Sonoma  Creek, 
below  the  town,  and  in  rainy  weather. 

While  they  had  just  encamped.  General  Vallejo, 
with  Lieutenant  J.  W.  Revere,  XJ.  S.  N.,  rode  down 
into  the  camp  and  invited  Governor  Boggs  and  his 
whole  family  to  move  up  to  his  residence  in  town 
and  enjoy  his  hospitality.  Governor  Boggs  replied 
that  he  could  not  think  of  so  imposing  upon 
Vallejo  's  generosity;  that  it  would  soon  stop  rain- 
ing, and  after  his  teams  were  rested,  he  would  move 
on  farther. 

General  Vallejo  said:  "But  it  won't  stop  rain- 
ing, and  you  will  soon  be  flooded  out.  You  pack 
up  early  tomorrow  morning  and  I  will  be  here  with 
my  vaqueros  and  bueyes  and  move  you  and  all  you 
have  to  my  Petaluma  raneho  where  there  is  a  large, 
comfortable  adobe  house  that  will  accommodate  you 
all.  There  are  plenty  of  cattle  for  beef,  and  sheep 
for  mutton,  and  you  can  kill  all  you  want  for  your 
food. " 


clerk,  under  General  Vallejo,  as  mayor  of  that  his- 
toric town.  He  served  as  a  sergeant  of  mounted 
volunteer  marines  under  Captain  Maddox,  U.  S. 
Navy,  at  Santa  Clara,  Santa  Cruz  and  Monterey, 
and  was  mustered  out  at  the  latter  place  at  the  close 
of  the  Mexican  War,  in  1848.  He  was  president  of 
the  California  Horticultural  Society  for  a  period, 
and  the  first  vice-president  of  the  Sloat  Monument 
Association,  to  whom  it  was  chiefly  indebted  for 
the  securing  from  the  Boards  of  Supervisors  of 
Napa  and  Lake  Counties  of  the  appropriations  of 
money  and  stones  representing  those  counties  in  the 
tSloat  Monument  at  Monterey. 

William  M.  Boggs  was  a  public-spirited  man,  and 
thoroughly  posted  in  the  history  of  California,  from 
the  time  of  his  arrival,  in  the  fall  of  1S46,  until 
nis  death.  He  left  many  grown-up  children,  some 
fathers  of  families  and  highly  respectable  people, 
some  in  public  oflice,  others  interested  and  occupied 
in  education  and  with  literary  tastes,  besides  one  a 
superintendent  of  oil  companies  near  Bakersfield. 
He  was  a  good  citizen,  a  staunch  patriot,  and  a  true 
friend.  There  was  recently  published  in  a  Sonoma 
paper  a  letter  from  deceased/in  which  he  took  ex 
ception    to    misleading    statements    regarding    early-

"BEAR   FLAG    POLE." 

••Will  you  please  do  me  the  favoi  by  correcting 
an  historical  error  thai  the  press  and  even  the  citi- 
zens of  flu'  historic  old  town  of  Sonoma  are  making 
in  perpetuating  the  old  'Bear  Flag  Pole,'  on  which 
the  original  Bear  Flag  was  hoisted. 

"The  flag  staff  with  a  cross  tree  that  lt:is  btood 
ai  the  northeast  corner  of  the  plaza  in  Sonoma  and 
reported  as  recently  blown  down,  is  not  the  oi  iginal 
Hear  Flag  polo  or  Mexican  Hag  staff  OH  which  the 
Hoar  Flag  1'nrty  hoisled  tin-  original  Boar  Klag. 
'I  be  staff  alluded  to  as  having  fallen  down  was  'milt 
a  ml  erected  by  Lieutenant  Stoneman,  afterwards 
General  Stoneman  and  later  Governor  of  California, 
ami   was   made  from   a   large   tree  and  hauled  from 

tin-    i.'.iw |s    in    the   So ii:i    mountains.       It    Wat    Bel 

up  near  the  north  oast  corner  of  the  plaza  of  the 
Sonoma  town  and  a  cross  tree,  like  a  ship's  mast, 
spliced  to  it  to  lengthen  it  out.  The  original  tree, 
before  ii  was  dressed  off,  was  mounted  on  blocks 
and  was  from  two  to  three  feel  In  diameter  with 
the  hark  on.  It  was  near  my  residence  while  being 
prepared  by  Lieutenant  Stoneman 's  men,  and  when 
finished  and  raised  was  sot  in  tin-  ground  about  fifty 
feet  from  where  the  old  Mexican  pole  or  flag  staff 
that  the  Bear  Flag  Party  utilized  to  hoist  the  Bear 
Flag  stood.  The  latter  described  pole  or  Mexican 
Hag  staff  stood  immediately  in  front  of  the  quarters 
or  barracks,  just  the  width  of  the  street  in  front  of 
the  main  entrance  to  the  barracks,  whereas,  the 
Stoneman  flag  was  get  up  about  fifty  feet  east  or 
nearer  the  corner  of  the  plaza.  The  old  Bear  Flag 
pole  was  made  from  a  single  small  tree  only  six  to 
eight  inches  in  diameter.  It  stood  in  its  place  for  a 
number  of  years,  and  was  used  by  the  authorities 
of  the  town  as  a  whipping  post  for  those  who  com- 
mitted petty  offenses.  It  was  finally  taken  down  and 
cast  aside,  and  some  boys  cut  it  up  for  firewood. 

"I  have  good  reason  to  remember  the  Hag  staff 
erected  by  Lieutenant  Stoneman.  While  it  was 
mounted  on  blocks  or  pins  of  small  pieces  of  wood 
prior  to  being  dressed  off,  and  during  the  head- 
quarters of  the  army  at  Sonoma  when  Colonel  .Too 
Hooker,  Stoneman  and  many  other  officers  of  the 
regular  army  were  stationed  there,  Major-General 
Phil  Kearney  was  there  as  a  guest  of  the  staff  of 
General  Persiper  Smith.  He  was  better  known  as 
'One  Armed'  Phil  Kearney,  one  of  the  bravest  and 
best  officers  in  the  United  States  Army.  A  daring 
and  reckless  rider,  he  lost  his  arm  in  charging  at 
the  gates  of  the  City  of  Mexico.  He  wore  an  iron 
hook  by  which  he  held  the  reins  of  his  steed.  He 
had  taken  a  company  of  Dragoons  out  west  of  town 
while  at  Sonoma,  to  put  them  through  some  cavalry 
drills,  and  after  the  exercises  proposed  to  race  back 
to  the  barracks,  xt  happened  that  1  was  out  in  that 
direction,  with  a  lady,  in  a  single  buggy  with  a  top, 
driving  a  fine  large  American  mule,  and  as  I  was 
returning  toward  the  plaza  I  hoard  the  rattle  of 
soldiers  in  their  race  back  to  the  barracks,  with 
(General  Kearney  far  in  the  lead.  He  passed  me  on 
his  fiery  black  horse,  with  his  iron  hook  arm  hold- 
ing the  bridle  reins  aud  his  saber  in  the  other  hand. 
His  horse  leaped  a  wide  mud-hole  in  the  middle  of 
the  street  and  passed  me  at  a  break  neck  speed.  My 
mule  took  fright  at  the  approaching  company  and 
the  rattle  of  their  sabers  and  ran  into  the  plaza  and 
up  the  street  in  front  of  the  barracks,  where  all  the 
men  left  the  barracks  and  turned  out  to  see  the 
race  between  General  Kearney  and  his  men.  They 
scared  my  mule,  already  frightened,  so  that  I  could 
not  hold  it,  and  it  left  the  street  and  leaped  over 
this  large  tree  that  was  mounted  on  blocks,  two  or 
three  feet  off  the  ground.  The  hap  was  a  high  one, 
carrying  the  buggy  over  the  top  of  the  big  log,  the 
step  of  the  buggy  plowing  through  the  bark.  The 
sudden  shock  broke  the  top  off  the  buggy  and  the 
lady  went  over  the  back  of  t be  seat  into  the  top  of 
the  buggy.  I  ran  the  mule  against  the  adobe  build- 
ing nearest  to  me.  The  lady  escaped  unhurt  and  no 
damage  was  done  to  the  buggy,  except  the  bending 
of  the  iron  step  wnich  caught  in  the  bark  of  the 
undressed  flag  staff.  The  mine  s  leap  over  the  top 
of  the  log  must  have  been  about  five  feet.  And  that 
is  why  I  remember  the  flag  staff  that  has  stood  so 
many  years  at  the  northeast  corner  of  the  Sonoma 
plaza,  and  erroneously  called  the  'Old  Bear  Flag 
Pole. ' 

"My  wife  saw  some  boys  cut  up  the  original  Bear 
-i  iag  pole  that  had  been  taken  down  and  thrown  on 
the  ground,  near  where  it  had  stood.  I  resided  in 
Sonoma  about  seventeen  years,  from  IStti,  and  am 
quite  familiar  with  the  ear.y  settlement  and  occupa- 
tion by  our  people  of  that  historic  old  town,  and  I 
am  sorry  to  see  so  many  mistakes  made  in  our  press 
about  the  earlv  events  of  our  Golden  State.  Yours 
truly.  W.    M~.    BOGGS."

ably     handled,    and    I  ho    judges     rendered    a     deer- 

in  favor  of  the  affirmative  argument.     W.  B.  Celio, 
in  presenting   his   reasons  lor  believing  the  men  of 

tin'    earl\     .lavs    had     better    opportunities,    spoke    as 
follows: 

AN    AFFIRMATIVE    ARGUMENT. 

"In  presenting  the  affirmative  argument  to  you 
honorable  judges,  I  do  not  see  how  the  men  of  the 
present  day  have  the  same  chances  as  those  in  the 
early  history  of  this  State  had;  all  men  wore  then 
equal,  there  was  practically  no  social  distinction, 
and  although  gold  was  plentiful,  money  does  not 
buy  opportunity — it  did  not  for  Lincoln,  Washing- 
ton or  Andrew  Jackson.  In  the  political  life  of 
early  days,  men  were  chosen  for  mental  worth  and 
character;  today,  by  bank  account  and  the  num- 
ber of  votes  they  can  control.  In  those  days,  any 
honorable  man  might  hope  for  high  political  honors; 
today,  he  must  bo  adorned  with  medals,  university 
degrees  and  plenty  of  the  world 's  goods  else  his 
ambition   is  hopeless. 

'  in  the  early  history  of  the  State,  all  know  thai 
man,  woman  and  child  had  the  same  chances,  aud 
we  have  been  told  by  our  Pioneers  that  their  arms 
were  always  open  in  ;my  weary  traveler  who  hap- 
pened to  pass,  because  t  here  was  pleat  \  of  em- 
ployment for  him.  When  I  speak  of  the  machine 
age,  I  mean  that  in  which  the  machine  has  taken 
the  place  of  hand  labor.  At  the  present  time,  you 
will  find  over  100,000  men  looking  for  work,  and 
unable  to  find  it.  Where  one  hundred  or  two 
hundred  men  were  formerly  employed  on  a  farm 
of  100  acres,  at  the  present  time,  with  the  im- 
proved harvesting  machinery,  fifteen  to  twenty 
do  the   work. 

' '  in  commercial  life  also,  I  athrm  our  fathers 
had  greater  opportunities,  for  each  man  was  mas 
ter  of  his  own  affairs,  be  it  the  building  of  a 
railroad  or  the  running  of  a  corner  grocery. 
Nowadays  man  must  conduct  his  business  to  suit 
his  neighbor.  Even  the  State  Legislature  sees  in 
it  that  every  dealer  has  a  guardian  angel,  an  in 
spector,  who  sees  fit  to  conduct  that  business. 
1  say  that,  in  the  early  days,  the  State  had  better 
chances  to  progress  in  everything  than  it  has  at 
the  present  time.  These  things  all  have  a  tendency 
to  crush  labor,  and  none  of  them  did  the  people 
have  to  contend  with  in  the  past  history  of  the 
State. 

' '  If,  on  the  other  ham.,  you  contend  that  the 
men  of  today  have  as  good  a  chance  as  the  men 
of  thirty  or  forty  years  ago,  why  is  it  that  so  many 
of  the  young  men  that  graduate  from  our  colleges 
are  out  of  work,'  A  carpenter  of  San  Francisco  re- 
cently told  me  that  there  were  twelve  to  fifteen 
men  for  every  job.  That  certainly  does  not  look 
good  for  the  mechanic  of  the  present  day.  They 
are  doing  the  best  they  can,  by  organizing  labor 
unions,  to  protect  themselves;  we  never  heard  of  a 
labor  union  in  the  early  history  of  the  State,  for 
there  was  work  for  all. 

"In  social  and  religious  life,  we  are  less  fortu- 
nate, for  our  fathers  found  both  religion  and 
society  in  their  own  homes.  The  home  seeker  had 
only  to  choose  his  location,  ami  then,  with  a  little 
effort,  establish  his  shrine  and  his  social  circle. 
His  wife  and  little  ones  were  his  inspiration  for 
better  things  and  greater  opportunities.  When' 
is  the  great  expanse  of  land  today,'  Why,  it  is  in 
the  grasp  of  great  corporations  and  money  kings. 
and  the  homes  of  this  generation  are  in  stuffy 
apartment  houses  and  hotels  and  father  is  out  at 
the  club,  or  the  Native  Sons  debates,  while  mother 
is  howling  at  a  suffragette  mooting. 

"God  help  the  next  generation;  there  will  be 
practically  no  opportunities  for  them.  Think  what 
is  to  beeome  of  the  laboring  classes.  I  will  give 
an  example  of  what  has  happened  i r  own  coun- 
ty: You  all  know  that,  up  to  1882,  the  number 
of  mines  working  in  this  county  at  the  northern, 
eastern  and  western  ends,  when  the  hydraulic 
mines  were  in  operation,  was  large,  and  a  great 
number   of    men    wore   employed.      Hut    see    what    the

' '  it  was  only  s  cev*  weeks  ago  that  the  city  paper! 
had  an  article  recounting  that  a  man  of  family 
in    San    DiegO,    a    buteher    by    trade,    looked    for    work 

tor  a  number  of  days  but  could  find  nothing  to  do. 
In  despair,  he  went  to  his  room  and  painted  a  sign 

which  said:  "1  am  looking  for  a  job. ' '  lie  was 
arrested  bj  a  policeman  and  taken  to  the  city 
prison,  and  the  paper  stated  they  would  try  and 
find  employment  for  him.  There  are  thousands  of 
other    cases    similar    to    this.'" 


A  NEGATIVE  ARGUMENT. 

<».  P.  Colley,  in  presenting  his  reasons  for  think 
ing  the  present  day  young  men  have  better  oppor- 
tunities, brought  out  some  strong  points,  laying  pal 
ticular  stress  upon  the  advantages  of  education  that 
are  to-day  within  the  reach  of  all,  but  which  were 
denied  many  in  the  early  days.  He  spoke  as  fol- 
lows: 

"In  presenting  the  negative  to  the  resolutions 
under  debate,  is  it  intended  that  we  will,  or  should, 
confine  ourselves  to  the  fact  that  opportunity  means 
the  making  or  accumulation  of  money;  or  should 
we,  in  this  debate,  reach  out  with  the  broader  idea  I 
When  we  speak  of  opportunity,  are  we  to  include 
the  opportunity  of  acquiring  an  education,  which 
loads  to  the  comforts  and  enjoyments  of  life,  to 
the  upbuilding  of  the  country  and  of  man 
kind,  to  the  dispensing  of  those  things  which 
have  a  tendency  to  bring  joy  and  happiness  to 
others?  To  my  mind,  it  seems  to  mean  much  of 
the  latter.  These  things  necessarily  apply  any- 
where, but  at  this  time,  being  in  a  Parlor  of  the 
X.S.li.W.,  the  question  is  to  be  kept  within  the 
bounds  of  the  State  of  California,  pertaining  to 
the  opportunities  afforded  the  young  men  within 
the  State  in  tue  early  days  and  at  the  present 
time. 

"In  speaking  of  the  early  days  in  California, 
we  are  immediately  confronted  with  the  fact  that 
there  was  then  practically  but  one  principal  occupa- 
tion, or  opportunity,  that  of  mining,  to  which  all 
looked  for  success.  We  do  not  moan  that  men  were 
not  able  and  sufficiently  educated  to.  and  capable 
of  taking  advantage  of  any  opportunity,  were  the 
-a me  presented — they  were,  but  there  was  just  that 
one  thing  which  predominated,  mining.  The  old 
saying,  there  is  room  at  the  top,  applied  in  those 
days,  but  at  that  time  there  wore  very  few  tops, 
while  today  they  are  so  numerous  that  it  is  almosl 
impossible  to  enumerate  them. 

•  •  Years  passed,  and  with  them  opportunities  them 
selves;  men  left  the  mines  and  took  up  occupations 
which  wore  in  need  of  their  individual  efforts  and 
which  they  were — according  to  their  intellect  and 
ability — better  able  to  perform,  and  had  a  tendency 
to  uplift  the  Commonwealth,  which  has.  each  year, 
presented  more  and  bettor  opportunities.  Each  new 
year  orings  its  quoto  of  opportunities,  and  todaj 
there  are  thousanus  of  avenues  leading  to  the  better- 
ment, the  uplift  and  the  success  of  mankind,  which 
are  manifesl  in  fcne  great  progress  and  development 
shown  in  tins  great  State  of  ours  since  the  early 
days,  when  there  was  but  that  one  thing — or  those 
things  incidental  to  that  which  lias  become  ■ 
i  he   greatesl    industries  of  California — mining. 

"Another  oiJ  saying  which  might  apply  at  this 
time  is  that.  'There  are  just  as  big  fish  in  the  sea 
as  ever  wore  caught."  There  are  more,  and  many 
times  more,  and  beyond  that,  there  is  the  thought 
that  then  are  SO  many  more  and  better  kinds  of

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


August,    1911 


ft@inni§— for  the  Edimea&im  mmd  Ednfeai&ini 

(CONDUCTED   BY  AUNT  ELLA   AND   UNCLE   ADLEY   STERLING.) 


AN   ARK-ADIAN"    EXCURSION. 
Come   Deejers   all,  and  stand  in  line; 
What's  mine  is  yours,  what's  yours  is  mine. 
Now  let  us  all,  in  peace  agree, 
And   seek   the  bonds  of  amity. 

ONG  YEARS  AGO  MY  LITTLE 
girl  went  to  the  Emerson  primary 
school  in  San  Francisco,  which  was 
known  then,  and  is  known  now,  as 
"THE  PRISON."  She  had  only  a 
staggering  sense  of  numbers,  but 
they  had  invented  a  species  of 
pile-driver  mathematics  called  the 
"Gruby  system,''  by  means  of 
which  children  could  not  escape 
arithmetical  science.  I  know  I  had 
to  go  to  that  school  myself  and 
learn  what  the  awful  thing  was,  so  that  I  could 
hammer  it  into  the  brain  of  the  poor  innocent  dur- 
ing the  hours  at  "home,  sweet  home,"  in  order 
to  make  it  work.  Her  father  had  to  give  up  his 
evenings  to  the  task,  and  life  began  to  take  on  a 
dreary,  ' '  Gruby ' '  aspect  generally.  "We  drank 
' '  Gruby, ' J  we  ate  ' ( Gruby, ' '  we  slept  with 
"Gruby"  under  our  pillows.  Do  not  ask  me  who 
"Gruby"  was,  nor  how  he  got  there.  I  only  know 
our  neighbor's  little  girl,  Edith  Whitely,  sickened 
.  and  died,  and  was  buried  in  Lone  Mountain,  from 
the  effects  of  "Gruby."  Nobody  today,  perhaps, 
knows  what  I  am  talking  about  when  I  speak  this 
once  ominous  word,  which  ruled  our  lives  then,  be- 
cause it  was  only  a  "FAD,"  and  died  a  natural 
death,  as  all  unnatural  things  do. 

But  I  can  never  forget  it,  because  of  one  terrible 
day  which  taught  me  a  lesson  in  common-sense. 
My  little  Viva,  with  her  great  masses  of  black  curls 
all  in  a  tangle  and  her  dark  eyes  luminous  with 
soul-agony,  was  getting  her  "Gruby"  ready  to 
carry  to  school  with  her.  Suddenly,  in  her  despair, 
she  cried  out  piercingly,  "But  you  can't  do  it! 
you  can't  do  it!      Nobody  can  do  it." 

"What  can't  you  do?"  I  exclaimed,  abandon- 
ing my  own  tasks  and  rushing  to  her  assistance. 
I  was  not  good  at  numbers  myself,  and  could  sym- 
pathize with  her.  I  looked  at  the  rigamarole, 
which  was  in  a  kind  of  baby  algebra.  "That's  all 
right,"  I  assured  her;  "there's  nothing  the  matter 
with  that." 

"But  it  won't  go  in!  It  won't  go  in!"  she  cried 
in  agony. 

"What  won't  go  in?"  I  insisted,  trying  to  under- 
stand the  working  of   her  infantile   mind. 

* '  The  two  into  the  nineteen, ' '  said  the  poor 
baby,  just  seven  years  old. 

"Yes  it  will;  it  goes  twice  nine  are  eighteen, 
and  a  half  over." 

"But  you  can't  say  that;  the  teacher  won't  let 
you;  it  has  to  go  in  even,  and  you  can't  do  it,  and 
nobody  can  do  it." 

"I  should  think  they  couldn't,"  said  I,  quite 
convinced  that  my  little  ewe  lamb  would  soon  be 
reposing  beside  little  Edith  Whitely  in  Lone  Moun- 
tain, if  this  kept  up. 

They  were  not  permitted  to  have  any  halves  left 
over,  because  it  was  not  in  the  system  at  that 
stage  of  the  game,  and  doubtless  she  had  copied 
down  some  one  number  wrong,  wThicb  pitched  the 
system  out  on  its  head  and  which'  would  be  pitch- 
ing us  all  out  on  our  heads  before  long.  I  could 
see  the  whole  family  laid  out  before  that  system 
could  get  into  practical  operation.  Besides,  the 
child  had  other  inclinations,  and  what  was  the  use 
of  killing  her  off  for  arithmetic?  I  took  away  her 
books,  gave  her  a  hoop  to  roll,  and  turned  her  out 
into  the  street  to  run  up  and  down,  and  saved  the 


family  from  destruction.  Yes,  I  actually  dared  to 
do  it!  But  you  must  remember,  I  came  of  a  breed 
that    crossed   the  plains  in    '49. 

Now,  I  have  been  studying  away  for  years  at 
a  new  "Gruby"  system,  which  is  the  "FAD"  of 
the  hour.  I  decided  to  give  it  a  practical  trial  for 
myself.  Two  weeks  ago  five  of  us  went  to  my 
Haywards  ranch  for  a  summer  outing,  each  one  to 
provide  his  or  her  own  provisions  and  do  his  or 
her  share  of  the  work.  As  I  soon  discovered  that 
laziness  is  the  begetting  sin  of  most  of  us,  and 
nothing  was  getting  "forwarder,"  I  issued  the 
edict  that  each  one  henceforth  would  cook  his  own 
meals  and  wash  his  own   dishes,  or  go  without. 

Well,  such  an  exhibition  of  human  nature  as  was 
revealed  to  me,  has  set  me  up  in  business  as  a 
prophet  on  social  science.  And  I  here  cry  out 
against  those  darling  pet  hobbies,  in  favor  of  the 
millenium  being  hastened  by  adopting  "Gruby" 
systems  of  sharing  with  each  other.  Like  the  little 
girl  with  her  problem,  I  cry  out  "You  can't  do  it! 
Uu  can't  do  it!  Nobody  can  do  it."  The  more 
I  shared,  the  more  I  went  without.  It  was  a  ease 
of  nineteen  halves,  and  it  would  not  go  in  even, 
in  spite  of  the  edict  that  it  should.  I  was  simply 
appalled  at  the  selfishness  that  met  me;  the  lack 
of  understanding;  the  lack  of  shame  over  flagrant 
takings  of  my  supplies  and  murmurings  of  discon- 
tent in  return.  N  o,  sir,  it  won 't  work.  The  de- 
nominator won't  go  into  the  numerator  even.  There 
is  always  a  loose  fraction  bobbing  up,  which  leaves 
you   in    the   lurch. 

So  I  began  a  system  of  getting  even — I  de- 
manded service  for  my  material.  Bless  you,  some 
of  them  scorned  stooping  their  royal  backs  to  save 
mine,  yet  they  would  calmly  ask  for  my  butter, 
because  they  had  none  at  all  and  had  provided 
none  whatever  during  the  whole  eleven  days  of  our 
colonizing.  When  I  asked  for  some  lumps  of  their 
sugar,  they  did  not  want  to  give  it  to  me.  I  washed 
all  the  stray  dishes  for  them,  but  they  demurred 
against  washing  any  for  me.  My  friends  gave  us 
a  horse  and  wagon  to  drive  around  and  behold  Cali- 
fornia in  all  its  glory  beneath  the  looming  of  Mt. 
Diablo.  They  were  delightful  rides,  on  which  each 
one  provided  his  or  her  own  lunch,  of  course.  "We 
got  milk  from  the  next  ranch,  and  when  I  spoke 
about  dividing  the  cost  of  it,  those  who  had  taken 
more  than  their  share  were  indignant  and  said, 
"I  thought  they  gave  it  to  us." 

Then  I  turned  loose,  like  Spartacus  to  the  Gladia- 
tors: "That  dear  Portuguese  neighbor  and  his  wife 
get  up  at  4  o  'clock  to  milk  that  cow  and  scald 
the  pans  to  put  the  milk  in,  so  it  will  keep  sweet. 
And  he  works  eleven  hours  a  day  to  get  $1.75  for 
cherry-picking,  or  hay-cutting,  or  plowing,  or  har- 
rowing. When  he  returns  home,  he  sits  on  a  chair 
outside,  under  a  tree,  panting  with  exhaustion. 
And  his  wife  works  in  the  field  all  day,  in  the  hot. 
sun,  and  patiently  gets  his  dinner  for  him.  and  then 
both  go  to  bed  almost  dumb  with  overplus  of  work. 
Why  should  they  give  us  their  milk  for  nothing?" 

Then  they  turned  loose  on  arithmetic,  and  how 
they  COULD  cipher  up  two  quarts  of  milk  per  day. 


for  so  many  days,  divided  by  the  number  who 
drank  it!  If  they  had  to  give  two  cents  a  day 
apiece  for  milk,  it  was  more  than  they  had  reckoned 
on.  But  they  kept  on  taking  more  than  their  share, 
just  the  same.  When  we  went  marketing,  I  saw 
them  buying  and  eating  cornucopias  of  icecream  at 
five  cents  each  with  great  gusto,  while  I  was  buy- 
ing loaves  of  bread  at  the  same  price.  Upon  re- 
turning to  this  foodless  island,  they  wanted  my 
bread,  but  I  said,  "No.  This  is  my  bread."  Next 
morning  early  they  were  trotting  to  town  on 
shank's  mare  for  "BREAD."  They  learned  a 
lesson    in   common    sense    that    day    that    they    will 

never  forget. 

Meanwhile  one  of  our  number  went  each  day  and 
did  chores  for  the  Sacramento  girl  who  had  loaned 
us  the  horse  and  wagon.  Every  time  he  returned, 
he  brought  into  the  family  exchecquer  good  values 
in  the  shape  of  jars  of  fruit,  which  were  joyfully 
welcomed,  for  he  shared  them  with  all.  But  though 
our  kind  friend  was  in  sorrow,  caring  for  a  mother 
soon  passing  over  into  the  Kingdom  of  Heaven,  not 
another  one  of  our  number  would  do  service  in  re- 
turn for  the  constant  use  of  her  equipage.  They 
were  too   proud  to   do   anything   in   return. 

Now,  it  strikes  me  that  there  is  a  Higher  Arith- 
metic than  mere  mathematics.  There  is  a  higher 
wisdom  than  trying  to  get  something  for  nothing. 
And  that  is  in  making  one's  self  so  useful  that  it 
pays  every  day  of  one's  life  a  remarkably  high 
per  cent  on  the  investment  in  Friendship.  Of 
some  people,  it  may  safely  be  stated  in  the  words 
of  the  old  opera,  "They  never  will  be  missed," 
and  of  others,  "They  are  worth  their  weight  in 
pure  gold."  The  schools  ought  to  teach  the  value 
of  service.  It  ought  to  be  reduced  to  tables,  and 
weights,  and  measures.  Until  that  is  done,  all  these 
iancy  frills  about  sharing  our  values  with  others 
are  useless.  Individualism  runs  rampant  in  the 
ordinary  human  breast;  and  you  can't  do  anything 
about  it  any  more  than  you  can  with  unbroken  colts. 
Nothing  but  the  bridle,  and  the  halter,  and  the 
saddle,  and  the  spur  can  turn  that  proud  and 
haughty  colt  into  a  useful  member  of  society. 

There  is  no  "Gruby"  system  that  will  take  the 
place  of  common  sense.  I  can  see  plainly  that 
things  are  as  they  are,  simply  because  they  are 
the  natural  outcome  of  selfishness  and  egotism. 
If  people  will  not  give  service,  let  them  starve. 
The  only  thing  that  I  would  have  different  is  this: 
That  WORK  ought  to  be  permitted  to  those  who 
want  it.  That  is  one  good  point  in  the  patriarchal 
system,  and  the  monarchy  is  founded  upon  the 
original  idea  that  the  king  is  the  father  of  his 
people  and  looks  out  for  them.  Were  I  queen,  I 
would  start  tree-planting  and  road-building  for 
native-born  sons,  and  knitting  machines  in  the 
homes  for  native-born  daughters,  and  also  other 
industries.  Of  course,  it  wTould  soon  appear  who

George  Samlin  Pitch's  book  entitled, 
"Comforl  Found  in  Good  Old  Books."  will  prove 
must  helpful,  for  in  il  he  offers  these  comforting 
words:  "Tne  person  who  1ms  a  genuine  thirst  for 
knowledge  will  gain  more  through  self-culture  than 
the  careless  or  indifferent  studenl  who  may  have 
nil  tin-  advantages  of  a  high  school  or  university 
training."  Ami  the  author  again  says,  in  his  intro- 
duction:    "'This  I k  i-  qoI   intended  for  those  who 

have  had  literary  training  in  high  school  or  uni- 
versity. It  was  planned  to  meet  the  wants  of  that 
great  American  public  which  yearns  for  knowledge 
and  culture  but  dues  not  know  how  to  set  about 
acquiring  it."  All  of  the  essays  here  given  have 
appeared  in  the  Sunday  book  page  of  a  San  Fran- 
cisco paper  within  the  last  four  months.  The  first 
one,  "Comfort  Found  in  Good  Old  Books,"  is  the 
outpouring  of  :i  hearl  bowed  down  with  sorrow  at 
the  loss  of  an  only  sun.  Mr.  Fitch's  many  devoted 
readers  expressed  such  an  appreciation  of  this  essay, 
■■f~  tn  lead  him  to  rmitinue  to  write  on  great  books 
and  writers.  Other  essays  are:  "The  Greatest 
Book  in  the  World."  "Shakespeare  Stands  Next 
to  I  he  Bible."  "How  to  Read  the  Ancient 
( 'lassies. "  • '  The  Arabian  Nights  and  Other

Another  chapter  tells  us  how  to  get  the  besl  oul 
of  1 ks.  Here  is  to  be  found  some  good,  whole- 
some advice.  There  is  a  bibliography  which  will 
prove  most,  valuable.  The  volume  is  one  of  art 
creation,  containing  reproductions  of  rare  old  photo- 
graphs that  give  to  it  a  most  artistic  effect.  It  is  evi- 
dent, when  one  has  gone  carefully  over  the  contents, 
that  these  guide-posts  along  the  way  are  not  only 
of  great  value  to  the  people  for  whom  Mr.  Fitch 
intended  them,  but  they  serve  as  wonderful  inspira- 
tion to  those  who  have  allowed  their  minds  to  be- 
come  hazy   on    great    writers   and   their   works.

THE  CRUISE  OF  THE  SNARK. 

The  contemplation  of  a  trip  around  the  world 
must  be  :i  source  of  much  pleasure,  hut  to  have  to 
plan  for  that  trip  in  the  way  in  which  Jack  London 
did,  the  pleasure  then  must  have  been  great  indeed. 
The  opening  chapters  of  his  late  book,  "The  Cruise 
of  the  Suark,"  give  in  detail  an  account  of  that 
preparation,  the  building  of  the  boat  being  the  main 
feature.  Mr.  London  says  that  the  "Snark"  was 
born  unfortunately.  She  was  but  partially  com- 
pleted when  the  earthquake  took  place  in  San  Fran- 
cisco. Then  he  sailed  the  shell  of  her  to  Hawaii, 
where  she  was  completed. 

A  highly  interesting  and.  at  times,  extremely 
humorous  chapter  is  entitled.  ''Adventure.''  Here 
the  author  reproduces  a  number  of  letters  he  re- 
ceived  from  people  from  all  parts  of  the  world 
wno  wished  to  accompany  him  on  his  unique 
voyage,  in  one  capacity  or  another.  Finally,  it 
was  not  until  London  began  his  long  journey 
across  the  broad  Pacific  t  hat  his  chief  amusement 
was  brought  about,  for  the  account  of  Ins  amateur 
navigation  convinces  the  reader  that  times  were 
lively  for  him.  Later  chapters  have  to  do  with 
Ins  stay  at  Hawaii,  the  most  interesting  of  them 
being  the  one  entitled,  "The  Lepers  of  Molokai, " 
iu  that  the  writer  gives  an  unbiased  account  of 
conditions  to  be  found  there.  Me  feels  that  the 
general  impression  of  people  in  regard  to  leprosy 
is  not  a  just  one.  for  although  it  is  a  disease  to 
be  greatly  dreaded,  yet  life  holds  for  them  much 
that  is  worth  while.  In  many  cases  operations  on 
these  unfortunate  people  stay  the  disease  for  years, 
to  exist  in  the  system,  yet  no  outward  manifesta- 
tion may  come  of  it.  Mr.  London  admits  that 
leprosy  is  terrible,  but  says:  "From  what  little  I 
know  of  the  disease  and  its  contagiousness,  I 
would  by  far  prefer  to  spend  the  rest  of  my  days 
in  Molokai  than  in  any  tuberculosis  sanitarium. '  * 
It  is  because  of  the  fact  that  it  has  baffled  physi- 
cians  and  specialists  down  through  the  centuries 
that  it  has  added  terrors  attributed  to  it.  The 
author  suggests  to  philanthropists  that  they  appro- 
priate  some  of  their  thousands  for  the  purpose  of 
scientific   search    for  a    cure   of  leprosy.

BERKELEY  POET  TOURS  THE  WORLD. 
Charles  Keeler,  the  Perk,  ley  poet,  is  soon  to 
starl  on  a  trip  around  the  world,  visiting  many 
strange  oul  oi'-the  way  places.  Wherever  Keeler 
finds  a  sufficient  number  of  white  people  to  justify 
a  recital,  he  will  rend  from  Ins  poems  and  plays, 
He  expects  to  be  gone  about  a  year,  and  doubi 
less  on  his  return  many  poems  which  will  have 
been  inspired  by  this  trip  will  come  from  his  pen 
On  learning  of  Heeler's  contemplated  tour  one 
calls  to  mind  that  other  poet  of  the  olden  times 
wandering  from  place  to  place  reciting  his  poems. 
It  is  such  an  unusual  thing  for  a  poet  to  do,  that 
Californians  will  not  only  eagerly  look  forward  to 
hearing  from  their  beloved  poet  from  time  to  time, 
but  will  give  him  a  hea  rtfelt  welcome  on  his 
return. 


MRS.    ATHERTONS    LATEST    WRITING. 

Iu  a  secluded  hotel  in  the  " burnt  district' J  of 
San  Francisco,  Gertrude  At  her  ton  is  busily  en- 
gaged in  writing  a  play  for  Mrs.  Fiske.  The  writer 
selected  this  location,  that  she  might  have  no  inter- 
ruptions by  idle  friends.  "Julia  France,"  the  title 
of  this  play,  represents  the  modern  movement  of 
woman,  nnd  was  suggested,  perhaps,  as  much  as 
anything  else,  by  the  iniquity  of  the  British  divorce 
laws.  Two  acts  are  already  in  the  hands  of  Mrs. 
Fiske,    who    is   delighted    with    them. 

Mrs.  At  herton  's  publishers  predict  that  she  will 
no  longer  follow  her  vocation  of  novel  writing,  but 
she  claims  that  she  rejoices  over  the  arrival  of  a 
new  novel  in  much  the  same  way  as  a  mother  re 
joiees  over  the  arrival  of  a  uew  baby  in  the  family. 


IN   APPRECIATION. 

.t  the  annual  meeting  of  the  Pacific  Coast 
Women's  Press  Club  recently,  Miss  Inn  Cooltmth, 
the  retiring  presiuent,  was  presented  with  a 
jeweled  pin,  bearing  the  em  hi  em  of  the  associa 
tion.  Miss  Caolbrith,  who  is  author  of  that  delight- 
ful book  of  poems  entitled  "Songs  from  the  Golden 
Gate,"  had  planned  to  give  some  lectures  during 
i  lie  lull  on  the  early  literature  of  California,  but 
owing  to  her  Btate  of  health  sin-  has  been  com- 
pelled   to    cancel    all    engagements. 


lets  a  man  nnd  a  woman  spend  eleven  hours  a  day 
at  labor  if  they  want  to,  in  order  to  hold  and  to 
own  and  have  title  deeds  to  two  acres  of  Cali- 
fornia, which  otherwise  they  could  not  obtain. 

In  conclusion.  I  want  to  add.  that  this  Ark-adian 
excursion  of  ours  was  based  upon  the  rule  of  the 
matriarchal  system,  for  I  was  the  queen  and  my 
subjects  were  youngsters  from  ten  to  fifteen  years 
of  age.  Children,  you  may  say;  yet  we  all  are  that 
at  heart,  and  the  grown-up  is  the  same  as  the 
child.  These  young  things  are  dear  to  my  heart, 
for  they  all  are  loving  and  innocent.  We  have  had 
delightful  days  together,  as  slowly  they  were  broken 
into  the  understanding  of  the  game  and  yielded  to 
the  rules.  At  the  end  of  the  eleven  days,  tears 
tilled  eyes  and  no  one  wanted  to  go  home.  But 
we  have  learned  a  great  lesson  and  that  is  this: 
What  is  mine,  is  not  yours;  and  what  is  yours,  is 
not  mine.  The  only  way  to  have  amity  is  to  keep 
our  property  apart,  and  make  everyone  give  service. 


AN   EXCELLENT    COLLEGE   FOR 

THE    STUDY    OF    THE    LAW. 

The  College  of  Law.  University  of  Southern  Cal- 

ifornia,  is  one  of  the  institutions  of  which  the  south 

is    justly    proud.       In     ]9fJ4     the     Los     Angeles    Law 

Scl I  was  absorbed  into,  and  became  a  department 

of  the  University,  under  the  above  title.  The  col 
lege  closed  its  first  year  with  an  enrollment  of 
sixty  one.  It  now  closes  its  seventh  with  an  en- 
rollment of  385,  being  seventh  in  size  in  the  United 


States.  The  College  of  Law  is  a  member  of  the 
Association  of  American  Law  Schools.  It  admits  to 
regular  membership  those  who  have  finished  a  four 
year  High  School  course;  those  who  cannot  meet 
this  requirement,  enter  as  specials. 

In  method  of  instruction,  this  school  differs  from 
many  of  the  other  schools  of  the  State,  combining 
the  text  book,  case  and  lecture  system.  The  basis 
of  its  instruction  is  the  text  book,  illustrated  and 
explained  by  cases.  By  this  method  it  gives  breadth 
of  knowledge  and  exactness  of  statement  derived 
from  the  text  book,  together  with  the  training  of 
analyzing  facts  and  cases  derived  from  the  case 
system.  The  school  lias  in  its  faculty  of  forty  two 
instructors  some  of  the  best  legal  minds  of  South- 
ern California,  among  them  six  judges  of  the  Su- 
perior Court,  one  judge  of  the  District  Court  of 
A]. peal,  and  three  ex-judges.  The  membership  of 
the  student  body  represents  every  state  in  the  coun- 
try. Frank  M.  Porter  is  the  present  Dean  of  the 
college,  anv.  has  held  that  position  since  1904. 

The  school  has  just  moved  into  new  quarters  in 
the  Tajo  building,  corner  First  street  and  Broad- 
way. Los  Angeles,  where  abundance  or  room  is  pro 
vided  for  school  purposes.  The  location  is  in  the 
center  of  the  eity,  thus  giving  every  opportunity 
lor  those  who  wish  to  work  in  law  offices,  or  seek 
other  employments,  to  take  advantage  of  some  of 
the  courses  offered.  The  school  has  always  insisted 
upon  small  classes,  with  the  consequent  intimate  re- 


lation between  teacher  and  pupil.  To  carry  this  out. 
the  freshman  and  junior  classes  are  divided  into 
three  sections,  and  the  senior  class  into  two  sec 
t  ions. 

In  addition  to  the  usual  courses  offered  by  law 
Schools,  Tin'  college  of  Law.  F.  S.  C,  conducts  :i 
night     school,     arranging     its      three-year      course      of 

stuuy  nil  a  lour-year  basis  for  night  students.  The 
school  is  also  giving  a  fourth  year  of  work  leading 
in  the  degree  oJ  Mastei  of  Laws,  thus  beinu  the 
only  law  school  in  the  West  which  has  assumed  this 
extra  burden  of  a  fourth  year  of  instruction.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


August,   1911 


Imppeimnimgs  inn  California  Hfty 

(COMPILED  FOE  THE   GRIZZLY  BEAR  BY  THOMAS  R.  JONES.) 


HE  NEWS  OF  THE  BATTLE  OF 
Bull  Run,  fought  on  July  21,  1861, 
■was  received  in  California  by  tele- 
graph from  Edward's  Station,  100 
miles  east  of  Fort  Churchill,  on  the 
arrival  of  the  pouy  express  there  at 
8  p.  m.,  August  2nd.  It  was  quickly 
wired  to  all  points  in  the  State  con- 
nected by  telegraph  and  caused  the 
cheek  of  every  Union  man  to  blanch. 
It  was  confidently  expected,  from  the 
tenor  of  the  news  being  received 
through  Northern  sources  for  a  month  previous,  that 
the  Rebel  army  would  be  annihilated  when  this 
battle  was  fought,  and  the  end  of  the  Rebellion 
would  be  at  hand.  Had  California  been  nearer  the 
scene  of  disturbance,  or  in  close  connection  with 
the  seat  of  government,  the  volunteers  from  this 
State  would  have  been  in  larger  proportion,  com- 
pared with  population,  than  from  any  state  in  the 
Union, 

There  was  no  question  as  to.  the  loyalty  of  a  big 
majority  of  the  population,  and  a  desire  to  enlist 
in  the  Union  cause  was  shown  by  a  large  number 
of  men  in  every  community.  There  being  no  call 
for  volunteers  from  California,  however,  quite  a 
number  of  patriotic  citizens  departed  for  the  East 
on  the  next  steamer,  for  the  purpose  of  enlisting 
in    the   regiments   organizing   there. 

It  is  now  quite  amusing  to  read  the  opinions  of 
the  editors  of  the  newspapers  who  sagely  discussed 
the  battle  and  its  outcome  in  the  columns  of  their 
papers.  Every  one  of  them  knew  how  the  battle 
could  have  been  fought  and  won  by  the  Union 
forces,  and  Napoleon  Bonaparte  could  not  have  held 
a  more  conceited  opinion  on  military  affairs  than 
the  editors  who  fought  out  the  battle  of  Bull  Run 
in  long  primer.  The  fact  that  it  was  not  much  of 
a  fight,  but  more  of  a  scramble,  with  every  man 
for  himself  and  the  devil  take  the  hindmost,  began 
to  appear  as  further  details  were  received.  This 
caused  the  feeling  of  fear  and  humiliation  to  give 
way  to  one  of  confidence  and  determination  that 
placed  hope  in  the  ascendancy. 

To  the  great  delight  of  embryo  warriors,  Gover- 
nor Downey,  at  the  request  of  the  National  Govern- 
ment, called  for  fifteen  companies  to  be  mustered 
into  the  United  otates  service.  It  was  understood 
they  were  to  be  stationed  so  as  to  protect  the  over- 
land mail  route,  but  as  there  was  no  rebel  force  west 
of  Missouri,  it  was  difficult  to  understand  this 
proposition.  However,  the  response  was  immediate, 
and  the  first  company  to  march  to  the  presidio  in 
San  Francisco  was  that  organized  in  Nevada  County 
and  commanded  by  Captain  Greene.  The  Washing- 
ton Rifles,  Captain  Roberts,  departed  from  Sacra- 
mento on  August  loth,  and  before  the  end  of  the 
month,  Camp  Downey  had  been  established  at  San 
Antonio,  Alameda  County,  for  the  rendezvous  and 
drilling  of  the  companies  enlisting  and  being  mus- 
tered in.  The  following  companies  of  infantry  had 
been  accepted:  San  Francisco,  Captain  Chapman; 
Nevada  County,  Captain  Greene;  Butte  County, 
Captain  Galloway;  Santa  Clara  County,  Captain 
Dev'ine;  Calaveras  County,  two  companies,  Captain 
Davies  and  Captain  Smith;  Sacramento  County, 
Captain  Roberts;  Tuolumne  County,  Captain  Tuttle; 
Amador  County,  Captain  McMulIen;  El  Dorado 
County,  Captain  Van  Guelder.  These  companies 
formed  the  First  California  Volunteers  at  this  time. 
The  heart  of  every  man  who  desired  to  be  a  volun- 
teer was  made,  glad  when,  on  August  23rd,  a  call 
was  received  from  the  Secretary  of  War  for  five 
regiments  of  infantry  and  one  of  cavalry.  Gover- 
nor Downey  patriotically  responded  with  his  proc- 
lamation, and  recruiting  offices  were  promptly 
opened  in  all  the  cities.  The  Governor  commis- 
sioned D.  D.  Colton  as  colonel  of  the  cavalry  regi- 
ment, and  he  immediately  began  its  organization. 
Captain  McCauley  of  Knights  Ferry  offered  the 
Government  the  services  of  180  cavalry  recruits, 
all  of  whom  would  furnish  their  own  horses. 
Times  Exciting;  Quarrels  Frequent. 
The  women  began  organizing  sewing  societies  to 
sew  for  the  volunteers  and  California,  with  the 
organizing  of  these  military  companies  and  forming 
of  home  guards,  soon  took  on  a  military  spirit  and 
wartime  condition.  The  people  began  to  separate 
politically,  socially  and  commercially,  according  to 
their  sympathies  in  the  great  contest  between  the 
North  and  the  South,  and  the  former  good  old  spirit 
of  hospitality  partly  disappeared  in  many  communi- 
ties. Union  meetings  were  being  held  in  every 
county,  and  men  and  money  were  pledged  to  the 
cause  in  abundance  by  the  people  who  attended 
them. 

Before  the  end  of  the  month  it  became  known 
that    General    George    B.    McCIellan    had    been    ap- 


pointed commander  of  the  Patomac  Army,  and  this 
gave  a  feeling  of  confidence  that  success  would  be 
achieved,  while  at  the  same  time  battles  fought  in 
Missouri  by  the  forces  under  Generals  Lyon  and 
Sigel  gave  great  encouragement  to  the  Union  men. 
That  men's  passions  were  aroused  to  a  fighting  ten- 
sion was  apparent  from  the  number  of  personal  en- 
counters reported. 

Among  these  was  one  in  which  Frank  Rhodes,  a 
prominent  Union  man  of  Sacramento,  severely 
pummeled  a  citizen  named  Hill,  because  the  latter 
read  the  news  from  a  war  extra  describing  the  bat- 
tle of  Bull  Run  in  a  tone  of  voice  that  had  a 
Secession  flavor. 

Near  Chico,  on  August  7th,  a  man  named  Gibson, 
an  avowed  Secessionist,  ended  an  argument  with  a 
Union  man  named  Harper  by  drawing  a  big  bowie 
knife  and  attempting  to  cut  Harper  into  pieces.  The 
latter  finally  secured  a  double-barreled  shotgun  and 
fired  a  charge  into  Gibson's  breast,  killing  him,  but 
before  falling,  Gibson  threw  his  knife  at  Harper, 
striking  him  and  injuring  his  arm.  The  two  men 
had  no  acquaintance  with  each  other. 

At  El  Dorado,  Calaveras  County,  N.  H.  Clarey, 
a  former  canu.date  for  State  Senator,  got  into  an 
altercation  over  the  use  of  the  epithet,  "Black 
Republican,"  with  a  man  named  Wm.  Bennett,  and 
fatally  stabbed   him. 

In  Amador  Valley,  James  Smith  and  John  Scott 
argued  the  North  and  South  differences  until  they 
both  drew  pistols  and  began  firing.  Smith  received 
a  bullet  in  his  groin,  and  Scott  had  a  portion  of  his 
upper  lip  shot  away.  It  was  truly  a  time  that  tried 
men's  souls. 

On  August  24th,  the  Franklin  Light  Infantry, 
composed  of  106  printers  and  commanded  by  Cap- 
tain Drescher,  arrived  at  the  presidio  to  be  mustered 
in.  During  this  month,  the  Volcano  Blues,  Captain 
Ross,  and  the  Oroville  Guards,  Captain  Connelly, 
were  organized. 

Politics  Begins  to  Sizzle. 

The  Sunday  law  passed  by  the  last  Legislature 
went  into  effect  on  the  first  Sunday  of  the  month. 
It  was  generally  obseved  by  stores  and  barber  shops 
that  had  previously  kept  open  all  day  on  Sundays, 
but  very  few  saloonkeepers  heeded  it.  In  the  min- 
ing towns,  there  was  a  decided  and  strong  opposition 
to  the  law,  as  Sunday  was  considered  the  miners' 
day  to  dispose  of  their  dust,  buy  their  supplies  and, 
if  so  disposed,  raise  a  little  hades  of  their  own 
creation. 

The  canvass  of^the  State  preceding  the  election 
for  state  officers  to  take  place  on  the  first  Wednes- 
day of  September,  began  on  the  first  of  this  month 
and  continued  with  vigor  throughout  its  length. 
Leland  Stanford,  with  E.  B.  Crocker,  both  Republi- 
cans, opened  at  Yreka  and  spoke  from  there  to 
Sonora.  ending  the  campaign  in  Petaluma  in  Septem- 
ber. John  Conners  and  Henry  Edgerton,  Union 
Democrats,  covered  the  same  ground,  while  J.  R. 
McConnell,  with  other  Democrats,  took  a  different 
route  but  spoke  in  nearly  all  of  the  same  towns. 
There  were  a  hundred  or  more  other  eloquent 
speakers  on  the  stump  and  these,  with  the  local 
candidates,  made  the  plains  and  the  mountains  howl 
and  yell  with  political  enthusiasm.  As  the  canvass 
went  on.  it  became  apparent  from  the  size  of  the 
torchlight  processions  and  the  attendance  at  the 
meetings,  that  the  Union  men  were  too  strong  in 
numbers  to  give  their  opponents  a  show  and  that 
the  drift  was  toward  the  Republican  party.  .  The 
Republicans,  claiming  that  the  census  of  I860  en- 
titled the  State  to  a  third  Congressman,  placed  F. 
F.   Low  of  Yuba  on  their  ticket   for  the  position. 

The  steamer  J.  A.  McClelland,  running  between 
Sacramento  and  Red  Bluff,  blew  up  at  1:30  p.  m., 
August  25th,  about  twenty  miles  above  Sacramento. 
Fifteen  persons  were  killed  and  nearly  the  same 
number  injured,  Some  of  whom  subsequently  died. 
Several  prominent  men  were  among  those  who  lost 
their  lives,  but  most  of  those  killed  belonged  to  the 
crew. 

A  new  steamer  called  the  Sacramento,  to  run 
between  Sacramento  and  San  Francisco,  made  its 
initial  trip  August  21st. 

Fights  and  Fires. 

The  usual  number  of  August  conflagrations  oc- 
curred, and  many  thousands  of  dollars  in  property 
went  out  of  sight  in  flame  and  smoke. 

The  town  of  Sonora  was  again  burned  on  August 
7th.  Nearly  the  entire  business  part  and  a  dozen 
residences  were  destroyed,  with  a  loss  of  over 
$100,000.  So  frequent  had  been  the  losses  here  from 
fire,  that  the  Sonora  people  were  greatly  discouraged 
and  did  not  feel  inclined  to  be  Phoenix-like  again. 

At  Placerville,  the  Baptist  Church  was  destroyed 
on  August  15th,  but  not  a  saloon  or  a  haunt  of 
vice   scorched. 


Forbestown  was  burned  on  August  1st,  forty 
buildings  being  destroyed  and  a  $50,000  loss  sus- 
tained. 

The  National  Hotel,  at  San  Jose,  was  destroyed 
by  fire   on  August    1st.   with  a   $10,000  loss. 

The  Golden  Gate  Brewery,  in  San  Francisco,  was 
burned  August  4th  and  another  fire  in  that  city 
on  August  14th  destroyed  ten  buildings  on  Battery 
street. 

Shaws  Flat,  in  Tuolumne  County,  had  its  crema- 
tion on  August  18th,  and  Both,  a  mining  town  in 
Placer  County,  while  nearly  all  its  population  was 
attending  a  political  meeting  in  another  town,  went 
up  in  fire  and  smoke  August  17th. 

Omega,  Nevada  County,  came  to  a  temporary  eud 
by  fire  August  24th.  Twenty  buildings  were 
destroyed  and  $50,000  lost. 

Red  Bluff  was  partially  burned  on  August  25th, 
about  twenty  buildings  being  destroyed. 

Wells-Fargo  &  Co. 's  stage  was  attacked  by  three 
highwaymen  near  "Dutch  Nick's"  station,  on  the 
Carson  City  road,  on  August  1st.  The  driver  slashed 
one  of  the  highwaymen  across  the  face  with  his 
whip,  causing  him  to  drop  his  gun,  th?n  slashed  the 
horses  into  a  run  and  escaped.  Se\  en  shots  were 
fired  at  the  departing  stage,  but  n3  damage  was 
done. 

On  August  11th  a  desperate  fight  occurred  it  the 
New  Alameda  mines  between  Americans  and  Mexi- 
cans who  quarreled  over  a  gambling  game.  One 
American  and  three  Mexicans  were  killed  before 
hostilities  ceased. 

On  August  28th  two  men  named  Houston  and 
Britton,  living  on  a  ranch  three  miles  from  Tehama, 
were  murdered  by  four  Mexicans  who  afterward 
set  fire  to  and  burned  the  houses  on  the  ranch. 
Great  excitement  prevailed  in  that  section  and  over 
fifty  Mexicans  were  placed  under  arrest  in  an  effort 
to  find  the  murderers.  The  Mexicans  claimed  that 
a  man  named  Thurman  had  killed  a  countryman  of 
theirs  and  they  intended  to  kill  ten  Americans  to 
balance  accounts. 

A  man  named  Johnson,  on  August  11th,  was 
robbed  and  killed  by  highwaymen  near  Brown 's 
Flat,  Tuolumne  County.  Quite  a  number  of  other 
robberies  were  reported  during  the  month  from  dif- 
ferent sections  of  the  State. 

"Bloomer"  Train  Enroute  to  State. 

T.  D.  Judah  completed  this  month  his  first  sys- 
tematic survey  for  the  Central  Pacific  railroad 
route  over  the  Sierra  Nevada  Mountains,  and  made 
a  favorable  report  on  the  same. 

Glenn  and  Wilson,  who  left  Nebraska  on  Apr;l 
26th,  arrived  on  August  21st  over  the  Big  Tree 
route,  with  170  horses,  thirty  men  and  one  woman. 

Grasshoppers  were  destroying  the  potato  erop  at 
Bodega,  Sonoma  County,  and  the  grain  fields  in 
Two  Rock  Valley  were  being  cleaned  off  by  the 
insects. 

One  hundred  head  of  cattle  were  sold  at  Moke- 
lumne   City  at  $4.87^    a  head. 

Charles  March  completed  the  laying  of  water  pipe 
in  Nevada  City  and  gave  that  town  a  splendid 
water  system. 

A  eow  belonging  to  Dr.  Geo.  MeCraeken  in  Santa 
Clara  gave  birth  to  five  bull  calves. 

Ten  tons  of  peaches  a  day  were  being  marketed 
from  the  Briggs  Orchard,   near  Marysville. 

An  emigrant  train  called  the  "Bloomer"  train 
was  reported  in  Nevada,  enroute  to  California.  It 
had  forty  women  dressed  in  bloomers,  armed  with 
revolvers  and  bowie  knives,  in  charge,  hence  its 
name. 

John  Graham,  a  resident  of  Columbia,  reported 
finding  a  grove  of  big  trees,  heretofore  unknown, 
near  the  Calaveras  County  line. 

W.  S.  Mioses  of  Yreka  organized  a  party  and 
ascended  to  the  summit  of  Mt.  Shasta.  He  reported 
a  measurement  made  of  its  height,  showing  it  to  be 
13,995  feet. 

Two  notable  dogs  in  San  Francisco,  named  "Bum- 
mer" and  "Lazarus,"  assisted  a  policeman  in  mak- 
ing an  arrest  and  added  to  their  fame.  When  the 
officer  was  resisted,  the  dogs  came  to  his  help  and 
pitched  in  with  a  vim,  biting  and  tearing  the  clothes 
and  limbs  of  the  two  culprits  until  they  gave  in 
and  submitted  to   arrest. 

A  match  race  for  $1000  between  running  horses, 
from  San  Francisco  to  San  Mateo,  twenty-two  miles, 
between  A.  J.  Ellis  and  W.  D.  Chapman,  was  run 
August  7th.  It  was  won  by  Chapman's  horse  in 
.one  hour  and  fifteen  minutes. 

A  rattlesnake  four  feet  and  six  inches  in  length 
was  killed  in  Sierra  County.  It  had  just  killed  and 
swallowed  a  ground  squirrel  a  foot  in  length. 

Charivaris  were  of  such  frequent  occurrence  in 
Petaluma    and    other    towns    as    to    be    declared    a

(A  Paper  Read  Under  the  "Good  of  the  Order"  of  Yerba  Buena  Parlor,  No.  84,  N.S.G.W.   (San  Francisco),  by  DANIEL  SUTTER.) 


N  1877  THE  I.ATK  STEPHEN  J. 
Field,  one  of  the  Poremosi  Justices 
of  1  he  Supi  erne  <  lourt  of  the  United 
states  and  :i  Pioneer  of  our  State. 
dictated  to  a  stenographer  his  rem- 
iniscences "f  early  California  days. 
which  were  afterwards  printed  in  a 
volume  anil  privately  circulated 
among  Ins  friends.  I  recently  came 
across  this  book,  and  my  evening's 
talk  will  be  on  some  interesting 
facts  gleaned  from  that  volume. 
Stephen  .1.  Field,  one  of  seven  brothers  of  the 
illustrious  family  of  that  aame,  left  New  York  on 
the  loth  of  November;  1849,  on  the  "Crescent 
I  ity, ' '  for  Panama,  via  *  hag  res,  on  the  Isthmus. 
I  Ce  and  his  fellow  passengers  ^crossed  the  Isthmus 
on  mules,  and  arriving  on  the  Pacific  side,  took  pas- 
sage to  Sau  Francisco  on  the  old  steamer  "Cali- 
fornia, ' '  a  vessel  of  about  1,000  tons  burden  and 
Carrying    over    1200    passengers.      They    arrived    in 

San  Francis< □  the  evening  of  December  28,  1849. 

Field's  baggage  consisted  of  two  trunks,  and  he 
had  only  ten  dollars  in  his  pocket,  of  winch  he 
paid  out  seven  dollars  to  have  his  baggage  carried 
to  an  adobe  house  taring  Portsmouth  Square.  His 
room,  eight  by  ten  feet,  with  one  bed,  was  shared 
with  two  fellow  passengers,  and  the  charge  was 
thirty-five  dollars  per  week.  The  next  morning, 
with  three  uollars  in  his  pocket,  he  took  the  cheap- 
est meal  he  could  get,  which  cost  two  dollars,  and 
he  was  then  .ett  with  but  one  solitary  dollar. 
Despite  this.  _e  was  not  despondent.  The  day  was 
beautiful,  like  an  Indian-summer  day,  and  everyone 
was  cheerful  and  buoyant,  each  greeting  being  a 
reference  to  the  "glorious  country,"  "the  glorious 
climate,"  and  the  like. 

San  Francisco  Bay  then  washed  to  what  is  now 
the  east  side  of  Montgomery  street,  between  Jack- 
son and  Sacramento  streets,  and  the  hills,  sloping 
back  from  the  water,  were  covered  with  buildings 
of  various  kinds,  but  all  of  the  rudest  construction, 
the  greater  number  being  merely  canvas  sheds.  Be- 
fore a  small  building  near  the  Plaza,  Field  noticed 
a  crowd  and  found  the  cause  to  be  a  court  house, 
with  a  ease  on  trial.  To  his  astonishment,  he  saw 
two  fellow  -passengers  who  had  landed  the  night  be- 
fore, on  the  jury.  They  had  been  summoned  by 
the  sheriff  to  serve,  and  received  eight  dollars  each 
for  their  services.  With  the  solitary  dollar  in  his 
pocket,  he  lingered  around  the  court  house,  hoping 
to  be  summoned,  but  no  such  luck  was  in  store  for 
him.  He  then  walked  down  Clay  street  to  near 
Kearney,  when  his  attention  was  attracted  to  a 
large  sign,  "Jonathan  D.  Stevenson — Gold  Dust 
Bought  and  Sold  Here." 


This  was  g |  luck  i"  Field,  as  upon  leaving  New 

York  his  brother.  Dudley,  had  handed  him  a  note 
of  the  colonel's  for  $350  or  $400  to  collect.  He 
stepped  into  the  store  and  the  colonel  was  delighted 

to  see  him  and  a tnmenced   talking  about   the 

country.  ''Ah.'-  he  said,  "it  is  a  glorious  country. 
I  have  made  $200,000.,J  Field,  with  the  solitary 
dollar   in   his  pocket,  told  him   lie   was   delighted   to 

hear  of  his  good    lurk,  shook    him    t  w I.\     llie    hand, 

and  while  the  colonel  was  still  dilating  upon  the 
magnificent  country  ami  tin1  grand  opportunities  for 
making  money,  Field  pulled  out  the  note  and  asked 
for  payment.  1 1 <•  says:  "I  shall  never  forget  the 
sudden  change  from  wreaths  of  smiles  to  an  elon- 
gation of  physiognomy,  expression  of  mingled  sur- 
prise and  disgust,  which  came  over  his  features  on 
seeing  that  note. ' '  After  careful  examination, 
Stevensmi  admitted  its  validity  and  paid  him  $440 
in  Spanish  doubloons.  If  it  had  not  been  for  that 
lucky  incident.  Field  would  have  been  penniless 
that  night.  Another  stroke  of  luck  was  the  sale 
of  Eastern  papers,  of  which  he  had  sixty-four,  and 
he  gave  them  to  a  fellow-passenger  who  sold  them 
at  a  dollar  apiece,  and  the  amount  realized  was 
equally  divided  between  them.  Later  he  had  a 
somewhat  similar  lucky  experience:  Having 
brought  out  a  dozen  chamois  skins,  for  which  he 
had  paid  ten  dollars  in  the  Fast,  he  sold  them  in 
Ma i  \  sville  at  an  ounce,  or  sixteen  dollars,  apiece, 
and  the  buyer,  making  gold  dust  bags  from  them, 
realized   two  ounces  a  skin. 

Field  being  now  in  funds,  he  hired  a  small  room, 
15x20  feet,  at  the  corner  of  Montgomery  and 
'lay  streets,  for  a  law  office,  paying  $300  a  month 
in  advance,  and  hung  out  his  shingle  as  "Attorney 
and  Counsellor  at  Law, ' '  and  waited  for  his  first 
client — as  many  a  disciple  of  Blackstone  has  done — 
but  none  came.  In  two  weeks  he  had  but  one — a 
fellow-passenger  who  wanted  a  deed  drawn,  for 
which  he  charged  an  ounce,  but  as  the  client  ob- 
jected, he  took  a  half-ounce.  This  did  not  dis- 
courage him,  however,  as  the  stirring  times  kept 
him  excited,  and  the  goou  reports  he  heard  of  the 
mines  in  the  northern  part  of  the  State  determined 
him  to  locate  there.  A  business  firm  suggested  that 
a  new  town  was  being  laid  out  at  the  junction  of  the 
Sacramento  and  Feather  Rivers,  called  "Vernon/' 
where  there  was  an  opening  for  a  young  attorney. 
<>n  January  12,  1850,  A  ^eld  arrived  at  Sacramento 
and  the  next  day  took  passage  for  Vernon  on- a 
little  steamer  which  was  so  heavily  laden  that  the 
passengers  were   requested  not   to   move  about. 

In  three  or  four  hours,  after  leaving  Sacramento, 
the  captain  suddenly  cried  out  with  great  energy, 
"Stop  her!    Stop  her,"  and  with  some  difficulty  the

boal  escaped  running  into  whal  seemed  to  be  a  soli

was   told    that    this    was    tin-    town    of    "Vemon,"    but

landed  there  and,  going  into  a  large  adobe  house 
saw  on  a  counter  a  plat  and  map  of  a  town  railed 
( ' Yubaville, ' '  and  behind  it  a  man  crying  out: 
"Gentlemen,  put  your  names  down,  puf  your  names

action  produced  a  great  sensation  and  it  was  noised 
about  that  a  San  Francisco  capitalist  was  investing 
in  the  lots  of  the  rising  town,  and  he  was  treated 
writh  marked  consideration  by  the  proprietors  of  the 
land  and  others.  He  gave  them  a  marked  copy  of 
the  New  York  paper  containing  a   notice  of  his  de 

part  lire   for   California,    and    from    that    they    t I 

out  that  he  was  a  lawyer,  and  immediately  engaged 
nini  to  draw  the  deed  from  General  Sutter  to  them. 
of  the  land. 

Rapid    Rise    to    Prominence. 

Field  soon  became  an  important  personage  in  the 
new  place,  and  on  the  18th  day  of  January.  1850,  a 
public  meeting  was  held  and  it  was  resolved  thai 
a  town  government  be  established  consisting  of  an 
ayuntamiento,  or  town  council,  a  justice  of  the 
peace,  a  first  and  second  alcalde,  and  a  marshal. 
Field  was  a  candidate  for  alcalde,  but  he  had  opposi- 
tion, the  main  objection  being  that  he  was  a  new 
comer — he  had  been  there  only  three  days,  while 
his  opponent  uad  been  on  hand  six  days.  Field  won 
by  nine  votes,  however.  In  the  evening  a  meeting 
was  held  at  the  adobe  house,  to  hear  the  official  an- 
nouncement of  the  result  of  the  election.  When  this 
was  done,  someone  proposed  that  a  name  should  be 
adopted  for  the  new  town.  Vubafield.  Yubaville. 
and  Circumdoro  (surrounded  by  gold)  were  'sug- 
gested, but  a  solid,  substantial  old  man,  evidently 
of  kindly  domestic  affections,  suggested  that,  as 
there  was  an  American  woman  in  the  place,  the 
wife  of  one  of  the  proprietors,  whose  name  was 
Mary,  the  town  should  be  called,  in  her  honor. 
•'Marysville."  which  was  adopted.  She  was  the 
wife  of  Mr.  (.'ovilland.  aud  was  a  survivor  of  the  ill 
fated  Donner  Party.  Thus  was  christened  the  birth 
place  of  many  of  our  famous  Native  Sons. 

Field  *s  first  civil  judicial  case  was  a  profitable 
one,  to  him.  It  arose  from  a  dispute  over  t  he 
ownership  of  a  horse.  For  acting  as  alcalde,  he 
charged  an  ounce,  and  for  drawing  a  bill  of  sale 
for  the  horse  from  the  winning  to  the  losing  party, 
another  ounce.  His  first  criminal  judicial  case  arose 
from  the  burglary  of  a  tent,  from  which  several 
ounces  of  gold  were  taken.  The  prisoner  was  con- 
victed, and  Field  s  real  troubles  then  began.  How 
was  the  prisoner  to  be  punished.'  If  he  discharged 
him,  the  crowd  would  immediately  hang  him.  Then 
also,  the  mayor  of  San  Francisco  had  offered  to  take 
any  convicts  from  him  and  put  them  to  work  in  the 
chain-gang.  The  passage  from  Marysville  to  San

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


August,   !  9 1 


Conducted  by   Clarence  M.  Hjrnt,  Managing  Editor 


CAM  THEY  AFFORD  T©  SHOULDER  THE  CHARGE! 


A  pamphlet  has  reached  our  desk  from  Indian- 
apolis, dealing  with  the  arrest  of  a  person  charged 
with  a  felony  in  California,  and  now  awaiting  trial 
in  Los  Angeles.  The  pamphlet  is  the  result  of  a 
conference  of  executive  officers  of  the  international 
trades  unions  with  headquarters  in  Indianapolis 
and  its  contents  deal  with  the  arrest  and  taking  to 
Los  Angeles — where  he  will  be  tried  October  10th — 
of  John  J.  McNamara,  secretary-treasurer  of  the 
International  Association  of  Bridge  and  Structural 
Iron  "Workers,  who  is  accused  of  destroying  a  news- 
paper plant  and  killing  several  workmen  therein 
employed. 

The  pamphlet  goes  into  detail  regarding  the 
arrest  and  extradition  to  California  of  the  accused, 
and  sets  up  the  claim  that  he  was  illegally  removed 
from  Illinois  and  that  his  personal  rights  as  a  citi- 
zen were  seriously  invaded,  and  that  in  that  inva- 
sion, officers  of  the  law  committed  perjury.  Prac- 
tically all  the  statements  within  the  pamphlet  have 
been  published  in  the  daily  press,  and  have  been 
often  affirmed  and  denied.  It  is  not  our  intention 
to  aid  in  trying  the  case  of  the  accused,  or  in  at- 
tempting to  establish  the  legality  or  illegality  of 
his  arrest,  in  the  public  press,  for  we  believe  that 
a  eourt  of  justice  is  the  best  and  only  place  to  dis- 
pose ,of  these  matters,  and  we  are  confident  that 
justice  will  be  victorious  in  the  end. 

We  are,  however,  interested  in  that  portion  of  the 
pamphlet,  in  which  the  conference  committee,  in  its 
''Statement  to  the  Great  American  Public,  which  in 
its  final  conclusion  is  always  right,"  says: 

"We  know  John  J.  McNamara.  * 
In  every  way,  so  far  as  we  know7,  he  is  a 
model  citizen.  Understanding  the  character 
of  the  man  as  we  do,  we  are  slow  to  believe 
him  guilty  of  the  revolting  and  heinous 
crime  charged  against  him.  So  we  propose 
that  he  shall  have  a  fair  aud  impartial  trial, 
and  to  that  end  we  shall  devote  our  energies 
to  the  raising  of  a  sufficient  fund  to 
guarantee  the  accomplishment  of  the  ob- 
ject we  have  in  view.  Can  there  be  any 
objection  to  this  by  any  citizen  of  this 
country?" 

Perhaps  it  can  be  truthfully  contended  that  what 
the  trade  unionists  do,  or  propose  to  do,  in  the 
case  at  issue,  is  the  concern  of  no  one  but  them- 
selves. But  inasmuch  as  they  ask,  "Can  there  be 
any  objection  to  this  by  any  citizen  of  this  coun- 
try?" they  cannot  take  offense  at  any  citizen  ex- 
pressing his  objection  or  approval  of  their  proposed 
course.     From  the  wording  of  the  pamphlet,  there 


fore,  we  take  it  that  the  conference  committee 
seeks   an   expression   of   opinion. 

The  only  objection,  to  our  mind,  that  any  citizen 
can  have  to  the  raising  of  such  a  defense  fund 
as  the  conference  committee  outlines,  is  within 
the  pamphlet  itself,  wherein  it  is  set  forth  that, 
"SO  FAR  AS  WE  KNOW,  he  is  a  model  citizen." 
The  question  at  once  presents  itself:  How  much  of 
the  accused's  life  is  known  to  the  conference  com- 
mittee'? Can  they  account  for  every  minute  of  his 
existence  within  the  time  covered  in  the  charges 
now  before  the  court?  The  committee  therein  ac- 
knowledges that,  only  "SO  FAR  AS  WE  KNOW," 
is  the  accused  innocent.  That  statement  in  itself 
is  an  admission  that  the  committee  does  not  pretend 
to  know  ALL.  In  short,  it  does  not  come  out  in 
the  statement  to  the  public,  and  make  the  unquali- 
fied declaration  that  the  accused  IS  INNOCENT. 

The  statement  proceeds:  "We  will  accept  no 
verdict  except  the  one  that  is  rendered  by  a  legally 
constituted  court  and  jury."  And  neither  will  any 
other  citizen  of  the  country,  unless  he  be  preju- 
diced and  unworthy  the  blessings  of  citizenship  in 
free  and  enlightened  America.  We  applaud  this 
declaration  of  the  international  trades  unions,  and 
because  of  that  very  assertion  fail  to  see  the  con- 
sistency "of  their  intention  to  raise  a  defense  fund, 
unless  it  be  that  they  desire  to  clear  the  accused, 
be  he  innocent  or  guilty — and  this  we  cannot  be- 
lieve, for  we  know  that  the  great  majority  of 
union  men  are  law-abiding  citizens  and  as  much 
opposed  to  murderous  tactics  as  the  honest  citizens 
outside  unions. 

We  hold  that  the  case  of  McNamara  is  not  a 
case  against  trade  unionism;  he  was  arrested  as 
an  individual,  and  will  be  tried  as  such.  It  should 
therefore  be  left  to  the  individual  members  of  these 
unions,  as  citizens  of  the  country,  whether  they 
will  freely  and  willingly  contribute  to  his  defense 
fund  or  not.  If  it  be  the  intention  of  these  trade 
unions,  as  the  wording  of  the  pamphlet  would  inti- 
mate, to  force  every  member  of  those  trades  unions 
represented  at  the  conference,  to  pay  his  pro  rata 
to  this  defense  fund,  the  trades  unions  themselves 
are  transferring  to  their  own  shoulders,  and  of  their 
own  volition,  the  '  'revolting  and  heinous  crime 
charged  against  him."  Can  trades  unionism  afford 
to  make  such  a  transfer? 

We  believe  that  the  conference  committee  has 
acted  hastily  in  its  decision  to  raise  a  defense  fund. 
That  decision  should  not  have  been  arrived  at,  and 
should  not  be  put  in  force  and  effect,  until  such 
time  as  that  same  conference  committee  can,  and 
will,  come  out  in  a  statement  to  the  great  American 


public  in  which  they  can  tell  every  trades  unionist, 
and  every  other  citizen,  that  they  KNOW  the  ac- 
cused is  innocent.  The  conference  committee  owes 
it  to- trades  unionism  to  appoint  a  trial  eourt,  em- 
panel a  jury,  and  thoroughly  investigate  the  life 
of  the  accused,  as  well  as  the  charges  now  pending 
against  him.  If  that  be  done,  and  the  accused  be 
found  innocent,  it  will  then  be  time  to  call  for  a 
defense  fund.  But  honest  trades  unionists  should 
not  be  forced  to  contribute  to  the  defense  of  any 
man  accused  of  murder,  simply  because  the  accused 
happens  to  be  a  high  official  of  a  union. 

Suppose  the  accused  were  a  common  laborer, 
affiliated  with  a  union,  would  a  conference  commit- 
tee of  international  trades  unions  undertake  the 
raising  of  a  defense  fund?  Suppose  that,  after  a 
fair  and  impartial  trial,  the  accused  is  found  guilty, 
will  the  rank  and  file  of  the  trades  union  move- 
ment look  kindly  upon  being  foreed,  by  their  head 
officials,  to  contribute  their  hard-earned  money  to 
the  defense  of  a  scoundrel? 

There  are  black-legs  in  every  combination  of  men, 
be  it  fraternal,  political,  social,  religious  or  commer- 
cial, and  they  are  just  as  apt  to  be  in  one  com- 
bination as  another.  In  the  recent  graft  expose 
in  San  Francisco,  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden 
"West  found  that  they  had  a  few  black-legs.  Did 
they,  acting  upon  the  theory  that  all  men  are  inno- 
cent until  proven  guilty,  proceed  to  raise  a  defense 
fund  to  clear  their  accused  members?  Not  a  bit  of 
it!  Neither  did  they  wait  until  the  courts,  in  their 
almost  endless  delays,  declared  the  accused  innocent 
or  guilty. 

The  Native  Sons  did  what  the  trades  unions,  and 
every  other  organization  made  up  of  honest,  law- 
abiding  citizens,  should  do,  if  they  desire  to  gain 
the  public's  approval  and  support.  They  appointed 
their  own  trial  court,  gave  the  accused  every  oppor- 
tunity to  prove  that  they  had  been  wrongfully  ac- 
cused, and  upon  failure  of  the  accused  to  establish 
their  innocence,  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
declared  them  unworthy  of  membership  in  the 
organization,  unworthy  of  their  moral  and  financial 
support,  and  expelled  them.  And  all  this  was  done 
many  months  before  the  accused  were  brought  to 
trial  in  the  civil  courts. 

Had  the  Native  Sons — as  the  trades  unions  are 
doing — refused  to  consider  their  members  guilty  of 
crime  and  proceeded  to  collect  a  defense  fund,  the}' 
would  have  lost  the  respect  of  their  honest,  law- 
abiding  members,  and  the  moral  support  and  en- 
couragement of  the  people  of  this  State.  And  this 
undesirable  result  is  bound  to  accrue  to  the  trades 
unions  if  they  persist  in  following  the  course  out- 
lined m  their  pamphlet  recently  made  public,  unless 
they  first  firmly  establish  for  their  own  benefit. 
the  innocence  of  J.  J.  McNamara. 


WHY  IMPROVE  PRIVATELY- OWMED 


iPERTY? 


The  following  press  dispatch,  sent  out  from  Santa 
Barbara,  will  no  doubt  be  of  interest  to  the  mem- 
bership of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West, 
and  more  especially  so  when  it  is  considered  that 
the  Order  has  been  repeatedly  asked  for  assistance 
in  restoring  Santa  Tnez  Mission,  and  that  after 
examination  by  its  Landmarks  Committee  the 
Grand  Parlor  at  Santa  Cruz  made  what  was  con- 
sidered by  the   membership   a  liberal   donation: 

Santa  Barbara,  July  18.— Because  he  does 
not  approve  of  the  stipulations  accompany- 
ing the  offer  of  $750  made  by  the  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West  toward  the  re- 
pair of  the  Santa  Ynez  Mission,  which  was 
wrecked  by  rainstorms  last  winter.  Bishop 
Conaty  has  declined  to  accept  the  money. 
This  has  developed  an  unexpected  angle  in 
the  proposition,  and  the  Native  Sons  are 
wondering  whether  all  of  their  efforts 
toward  the  project  have  been,  in  vain. 

The  Native  Sons  did  not  expect  the 
amount  contributed  by  them  to  be  suffi- 
cient to  do  all  of  the  necessary  repairing, 
but  donated  it  with  the  expectation  that 
it  would  replace  the  roof,  figuring  on  the 
Santa  Tnez  residents  building  the  butt- 
resses and  the  church  repairing  the  tower. 
This  arrangement  failed  to  meet  the 
bishop's  approval,  and  he  has  so  instructed 


Father  Buckler,   who    is   in   charge   of   the 
mission. 

The  ' '  stipulations  accompanying  the  offer  of 
$750,"  to  which  Bishop  Conaty  objects,  if  the 
above  press  report  be  true,  are  evidently  those 
whicn  prescribe,  under  the  Grand  Parlor  laws,  that 
no  expenditure  of  money  shall  be  made  except  upon 
claims  for  material  or  service  rendered,  duly  ap- 
proved by  the  committee  under  whose  charge  the 
appropriation  comes,  and  approved  by  the  Grand 
President    and    Finance    Committee. 

The  Native  Sons  did  not  plan,  or  promise,  as  we 
understand  it,  to  restore  the  entire  mission  struc- 
ture, but  did  agree  to  restore  a  certain  portion 
thereof,  and  appropriated  sufficient  funds  to  carry 
out  that  work,  which  wrould  be  done  under  the 
supervision  of  our  Landmarks  Committee.  It  now 
appears,  however,  that  Bishop  Conaty  wants  this 
money  turned  over  to  mm,  and  by  him  used  as  he 
sees  fit,  in  making  repairs.  It  was  not  appropriated 
by  the  Grand  Parlor  with  any  such  intention,  ac- 
cording to  our  recollection,  and  the  Landmarks 
Committee  of  the  Order  should  stand  firm  in  their 
intention  to  either  have  the  specified  work  they 
contemplated  done  under  their  own  supervision,  or 
they  should  refuse  to  do  any  work  at  all,  and  return 
the  appropriation  to  the  Grand  Parlor,  which  can 
authorize  its  expenditure  on  other  landmarks — and 
preferably  not  on  privately-owned  ones. 

Santa  Ynez  Mission,  like  most  of  the  other  mis- 


sions, is  privately-owned  property,  title  resting  in 
the  Catholic  Church,  and  when  one  stops  to  con- 
sider the  proposition,  there  is  no  legitimate  reason 
why  Grand  Parlor  funds  should  be  used  to  restore 
private  property.  Sentiment  alone  has  coaxed 
several  dollars  from  our  pockets  to  put  in  repair 
privately-owned  landmarks,  and  it  seems  strange 
that  that  same  sentiment  would  not  impel  the 
owners  to  gladly  accept  any  restoration  work  we 
might  wish  to  undertake. 

Why  should  we  restore  these  privately-owned 
landmarks,  anyway?  We  all  want  them  preserved, 
but  it  occurs  to  us  that  the  first  step  in  their  preser- 
vation should  be  their  acquirement  by  the  State 
for  the  public's  benefit.  The  Order  would  not  put 
its  hands  into  its  treasury  and  spend  thousands  of 
dollars  to  put  a  new  roof  on  a  member's  dilapi- 
dated wooden  shanty.  Why,  then,  should  it — or 
should  it  be  expected  to — spend  its  money  to 
restore  the  privately-owned  property  of  a  rich  cor- 
poration, or  of  an  individual  who  holds  such  land- 
marks property  not  from  sentiment,  but  for  its 
commercial    value? 

We  have  been  going  along  for  years  financially 
assisting  the  preservation  of  the  Missions — in  the 
-use  and  control  of  which  we  have  not  the  slightest 
voice — simply  and  solely  from  sentimental  reasons. 
That  same  sentiment,  however,  which  actuates  us, 
has  never  been  apparent  in  the  hearts  or  pocket- 
books  of  the  owners  of  the  Missions,  else  the  Mis- 
sions would  to-day  all  have  been  restored  by  the 
owners  themselves,  who  are  financially  able  to  keep 
them  in  perpetual  repair.

MOME  BUT  THE  GUILTY  MEED  FEAR  PUBLICITY 


Man]    have  been   the  words  of  commendati «■ 

eeived  by  us  for  the  article  on  thja  page  last  month 
anent  the  Santa  Cruz  Native  Daughters  Grand  Par 
lor— ami  all  of  them  t'r.mi  members  of  the  Order 
itself.  While  the  plain  words  therein  set  forth 
were  no  doubt  nol  to  the  liking  of  some,  all  must 
nilinii  their  truth  ami  acknowledge  thai  they  were 
timely.  The  secretary  of  one  Subordinate  Parlor, 
in  a  letter  i>>  the  editor,  sa_\s:  "Your  article  in 
the  July  number  of  The  Grizzly  Bear,  on  tin-  Santa 
Uruz  Grand  Parlor  session,  was  quite  appropriate, 
ami  1  feel  that,  it'  the  Subordinate  Parlors,  especially 
those  in  the  country  districts,  do  oo1  lake  the  matter 
in   ba ml.  ■  *  (rder  will  go  to  pieces. 

Another  corresponded  said  thai  she  appreciated 
Mie  truthfulness  of  everything  in  the  article,  ami 
was  glad  thai  The  Grizzly  Bear,  as  the  Order's 
official  organ,  had  the  courage  to  come  out  openPj 
ami  tell  the  membership  of  the  Order  the  true  con- 
ditions existing  in  the  Grand  Parlor.  She  said 
she  ami  numerous  others  who  have  attended  past 
Grand  Parlor  sessions  knew  that  that  body  was 
"suffering  from  dissension,  caused  by  too  much 
past  grand  presidency,"  ami  realized  that  total 
dissolution  of  the  Order  was  yearly  drawing  nearer. 
She  hoped  the  Subordinate  Parlors  would  heed 
"The  Grizzly's  growl,"  as  she  put  it.  and  would 
take  unto  themselves  the  eradication  of  the  trouble- 


We  believe  in  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
doing  their  share  toward  saving  these  grand  old  rel- 
ics or  the  earliest  periods,  but  not  if  they  are  to  re- 
main privately-owned.  If  the  owners  lack  that  senti- 
ment which  would  assure  the  Missions'  restoration, 
let  the  Native  Suns  launch,  and  carry  foward,  a 
movement  to  have  the  State  condemn  the  property 
for  the  use  of  the  public,  and  then  financially  assist 
the  State  in  the  work  of  restoration.  Let  us  in- 
augurate   this    movement    by    aiding    the    State    in 

restoring  S ma    Mission,  which  is  the  property  of 

The  People. 

What  have  we  done  for  Sonoma  Mission?  Noth- 
ing! And  it  is  owned  by  ourselves,  as  componenl 
parts  of  the  state  of  California.  Instead  of  restor 
ing  our  own  landmarks  we  are  devoting  our  finances 
toward  improving  privately  owned  property,  in 
which  we  have  no  Interest  whatever,  save  that 
which  arises  from  our  love  for  the  early  days.  Let 
us  help  Petal uma  Parlor  preserve  the  old  Vallejo 
Adobe;  let  us  build  a  Sutter  monument  on  the  pub 
lie  domain  at  Sacramento;  let  us  finish  the  Pioneer 
monument  on  public  ground  at  Donner  Lake;  in 
short,  let  us  be  loyal  to  our  own,  and  our  State's 
possessions,  first. 

By  letting  it  become  firmly  es t aid i shed  that  the 
Order  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  will 
positively  refuse  to  do  any  further  restoration  work 
on  privately-owned  landmarks — and  they  assuredly 
lose  their  greatest  value  as  landmarks  while  pri- 
vately-owned— we  will  either  accomplish  the  full 
restoration  of  these  properties  by  the  owners  them 
selves,  or  their  acquirement  by  the  State.  But  just 
so  long  as  there  is  the  remotest  possibility  of  the 
owners  of  these  landmarks  arousing  our  sentiment 
to  the  extent  of  financing  this  restoration  work, 
just  so  long  will  the  owners  let  their  property  re- 
main in  a  dilapidated  state,  feeling  secure  in  the 
belief  that  eventually  the  Native  Sons,  or  some  his- 
torical organization,  will  be  swayed  by  sentiment 
into  doing  that  which  their  best  judgment  tells 
them  the  owners  should  do. 

"First    to    thine    own    self    be    true; 

Thou  canst  not,  then,  be  false  to  any  man."

rigts  in  the  Grand  Parlor  to  cliques  and  factional 
leaders.  It  is  not  our  intention  t"  keep  the  mis- 
comings    el'    tne   Order    Mi    the    public    eye,    vet,   at    the 

same  time,  we  are  thorough! j  convinced  that  honesl 
publicity    will  eventually    work  to  the  upbuilding  of 

the  Order,  ami  to  the  perpetual  detriment  of  those 
persons  and  practices  which  are  today  sapping  the 
lite  of  the  organization.  Publicity  therefore,  shall 
not  be  wanting,  even  though  it  be  distasteful  to 
some  grand  officers,  more  ex-grand  officers,  and  a 
few  workers   in    the   ranks. 

None  but  the  guilty  fear  publicity!  No  grand 
officer  need  fear  publicity  unless  her  official  acts 
are  open  to  criticism.  No  past  grand  officer  need 
fear  publicity  unless  she  has  been  a  party  to  creat- 
ing discord.  In  fact,  no  Native  Daughter,  no 
matter  how  exalted  or  lowly  her  station  in  the 
Order,  will  have  cause  to  complain  of  what  will 
be  said  in  these  columns,  unless  she  has  a  guilty 
conscience.  It  has  been  said  that  the  reference  to 
the  past  grand  presidents  was  very  broad,  and 
thai  all  the  past  grands  should  not  have  been  in- 
cluded. That  is  partly  true,  but  it  is  also  true  that  no 
past  grand  who  dee-,  nut  come  under  the  objection- 
able classification  would  have  occasion  to  hud  fault. 
Every  past  grand  knows  that  what  has  been  said 
is  the  plain  truth;  she  knows  whether  or  not  the 
accusations  apply  to  her  Grand  Parlor  career.  If, 
in  her  own  conscience,  she  be  innocent,  she  has  not 
been  wrongfully  accused,  for  she  was  not  accused 
at  all.  If,  on  the  other  hand,  her  own  conscience 
declares  her  guilty,  she  has  been  justly  accused, 
and  having  the  evil  of  her  Grand  Parlor  ways  made 
clear,  should  resolve  to  in  future  labor  for  the 
Order's  interests  and  lay  aside  petty  personal 
jealousies. 

The  Grizzly  Bear  is  interested  solely  in  preserv- 
ing and  upbuilding  the  Order  of  Native  Daughters 
of  the  Golden    West.     It   is  not   concerned   with   the

in     making     public,    and     thereby     attempting     t"    dis 

courage  ami  discountenance,  those  things  which  are 
not    lor    the   Order's    besl    interests.      It    would   be

pursued  any  other  course.  It  was  no1  foi  any  great 
oesire  for  Becrecy  thai  some  grand  and  ex-grand 
officers     advocated     censored     publicity     at     Santa 

Cruz,    but.    rather    to    keep    their    disgraceful    and    un 

fraternal   action s  and   recommendations   from   being 

made    known    in    I  lie    greal     majority    of    the    member 

ship,   and    thereby    disci edil  i        hen    elves. 
One  past   grand   president,   while  uol   denying  the 

truth  of  the  assertions  in  The  Grizzly  Bear,  coil 
bends  thai  such  publicity  as  was  herein  gives  the 
Santa  Cruz  Grand  Parlor  will  tend  to  discredil  the 
organization.  That  is  deeidedlv  wrong,  and  it  is 
the  advocacy  of  such  a  policy  thai  has  tended 
largely  to  bring  about  conditions  now  existing. 
The  Subordinate  Parlors  have  been  kept  in  ignor- 
ance of  actual  conditions;  they  have  not  been  taken 
into  the  confidence  of  the  grand  president;  their 
interests  have  been  shamefully  subordinated  to  the 
interests  of  thai  faction  to  which  a  grand  president 
owes  allegiance.  Were  it  not  for  the  published  re- 
ports in  these  columns,  ninety  per  cent  of  the 
Subordinate  Parlors  would  to-day  be  in  ignorance 
of  the  vicious  recommendations  made  by  the  grand 
president  at  Santa  Cruz — and  made  not  for  the  good 
of  the  Order,  but  with  the  sole  desire  of  personal 
revenge  and  at   the  behest   of  her  advisers. 

The  Subordinate  Parlors  pay  the  traveling  ex- 
panses of  the  grand  president,  with  the  idea  in 
view  that  she  will  visit  them  during  her  term  of 
office,  consult  with  them  as  to  needed  legislation 
for  their  upbuilding,  and  then  recommend  to  the 
Grand  Parlor  such  legislation  as  will  insure  the 
Order's  progress.  Did  the  grand  president  at  Santa 
Cruz  consult  the  Subordinate  Parlors  as  to  whether 
they  approved  of  the  recommendations  made  by 
her?  Decidedly  NO!  Iter  recommendations  were 
the  wishes  of  a  clique,  made  up  largely  of  past 
grands,  and  not  the  desires  of  the  Subordinate  Par- 
lors. This  is  clearly  borne  out  in  the  Grand  Par- 
lor record,  which  shows  that  every  important 
recommendation  of  the  grand  president  at  Santa 
Cruz    was    rejected    by    the    delegates. 

The  Subordinate  Parlors  are  the  only  ones  that 
can  right  Grand  Parlor  conditions.  They  constitute 
the  Order,  pay  the  operating  expenses,  and  should 
make  it  their  busienss  to  direct  the  legislation. 
They  should  also  make  it  their  business  to  see  that, 
in  future,  the  grand  president's  office  is  filled  by 
one  who  has  the  backbone  to  be  independent,  who 
is  not  allied  with  any  clique,  and  who  will  en- 
deavor to  advance  the  interests  of  the  whole  Order, 
rather  than  the  selfish  motives  of  a  few  personal 
friends.  The  Subordinate  Parlors  should  change 
the  systems  under  which  the  Grand  Parlor  at 
present  operates,  for  those  systems  are  not  to  their 
best  interests,  but  solely  in  the  interests  of  fac- 
ionalism.  In  snort,  the  Subordinate  Parlors  should 
demand  their  rights, — in  the  Grand  Parlor  meeting, 
as  well  as  out  of  it, — which  are  superior  to  the 
rights  of  any  individual  member  or  the  rights  of 
any  combination  of  Grand  Parlor  members.  When 
the  Subordinate  Parlors  awake  to  the  seriousness 
of  the  situation,  and  take  a  decided  and  united 
stand  against  the  vicious  practices  now  in  vogue 
in  the  Grand  Parlor,  then  will  the  Order  of  Native 
Daughters  of  the  Golden  West  progress,  and  not 
until   then. 


ARMY  AND  NAVY  PARLOR  HAS 

INSTALLATION  AND  BANQUET. 

San  Francisco — At  the  regular  meeting  held  July 
19th,  D.D.G.P.  Frank  H.  Vivian  of  Rincon  Parlor, 
No.  72,  N.S.G.W.,  assisted  by  D.D.G.P.  John  M.

work  by  the  new  officers  was  commendably  ren- 
dered, and  was  highly  complimented  by  the  Dis 
trict  Deputy.  ^ae  drill  team  added  materially  in 
making  the  installation  most  impressive.  Past  Pres- 
ident L.  L.  Hunter  was  presented  with  a  diamond- 
studded  emblem  of  the  Order,  in  recognition  of 
faithful  service  rendered  the  Parlor,  ami  as  a  mark 
of  the  esteem  and  friendship  of  the  members.  The 
officers  of  Army  and  Navy  Parlor  were  banqueted 
July  22nd.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAE 


August,    191

Mill' 


^m  HIS  IS  GENERALLY  RECOGNIZED 
as  the  "closed* '  season  in  the  theat- 
rical world,  due  to  the  fact  that  a 
great  majority  of  theater-goers  for- 
sake the  cities  for  the  country  dur- 
ing the  hot  weather,  and  others 
who  remain  in  town  are  not  inclined 
to  spend  the  warm  evenings  in- 
doors, when  there  are  so  many 
counter-attractions  out  of -doors.  For 
this  reason,  many  theaters  are  closed, 
or  are  open  only  semi-occasionally  to 
accommodate  a  "big"  attraction  that  has  the 
temerity  to  appear  during  the  "off"  season.  While 
the  heat  is  responsible  for  many  Eastern  houses 
closing,  that  is  not  the  main  reason  in  California. 
The  trouble  here  is  due  to  a  lack  of  traveling  com- 
panies, most  of  the  stars  now  enjoying  their  vaca- 
tions. 

The  temporary  lull,  however,  works  no  hardship, 
as  it  gives  owners  everywhere  a  needed  opportunity 
to  make  necessary  repairs  and  improvements,  and 
in  the  East  the  big  booking  companies  are  engaged 
in  signing  up  stars,  securing  new  vehicles  for  their 
appearance,  and  mapping  out  routes  for  the  next 
season.  Actors  and  actresses  are  not  entirely  at 
ease,  either,  for  many  of  them  are  combining  pleas- 
ure at  summer  resorts  with  rehearsing  for  new 
plays,  while  others  are  on  the  lookout  for  accept- 
able roles. 

While  to  the  patrons  of  theaters,  therefore,  these 
summer  days  appear  dull,  in  a  theatrical  way,  they 
are  not  really  so,  for  those  who  provide  the  enter 
tainment — the  managers,  actors  and  actresses — are 
engaged  in  planning  for  the  next  season,  which  in 
some  quarters  will  begin  late  in  August,  in  others 
auring  Septemoer,  but  which  will  be  in  full  swing 
throughout  the  country  by  the  middle  of  October. 
Reports  from  New  York,  the  theatrical  center  of 
the  United  States,  tell  of  many  new  plays  that 
have  found  favor  with  the  managers  and  stars,  and 
all  the  booking  agencies  are  planning  to  send  a 
great  throng  of  attractions  to  California,  which  is 
considered  one  of  the  most  profitable  fields  in  the 
country. 

There  is  not  an  entire  dearth  of  really  good  at- 
tractions for  those  who  care  to  attend  the  theater, 
however,  as  the  many  stock  companies  are  putting 
on  excellent  bills,  with  well-qualified  casts,  and  as 
a  result  are  doing  a  good  business.  These  houses 
are  open  during  the  entire  year,  and  their  attrac- 
tions have  so  improved  in  quality  that  their  offer- 
ings are  equal,  and  in  many  eases  far  superior,  to 
those  produced  by  traveling  companies.  Vaudeville 
houses  also  provide  entertainment  during  the  sum- 
mer, as  well  as  winter  season,  and  they  are  today 
occupying  a  considerable  and  important  place  in 
the  theatrical  world.  There  is  almost  no  end  to 
the  number  of  "vaudies, "  and  many  people,  who 
care  nothing  for  a  ' '  stock "  or  "  traveling  com- 
pany, every  week  enjoy  the  programs  presented 
there.  And  we  also  have  the  moving  picture  houses, 
now  known  as  servers  of  "canned  drama,"  which 
are  to  be  found  m  the  smallest  village  as  well  as 
the  largest  city,  and  which  are  in  a  reeej-tive  mood 
for  the  five  and  ten-cent  pieces  every  hour  of  the 
305  days  of  the  year.

In  addition  to  these,  many  Parlors  through 
out  the  state  are  furnishing  The  Grizzlj  \',>-i< 
direel  to  the  homes  of  their  members.  The 
Grizzly  Beai  has  uo1  only  been  indorsed  by 
the    Grand    Parlor    as    the    official    organ,    but 

has    the    individual    endorsement     of    the    many 

influential    and    thinking    men    of    the   Order 

who    have    done,    and    a  re    doing,    so    much    for 

f  he   i  Irder  's   upbuilding. 

The  contents  of  The  Grizzly  Bear  are  no1 
alone  of  interest  to  the  fraternity,  however, 
The  columns  of  the  magazine  are  filled  with 
wholesome,  interesting  matter  of  interest 
alike  to  man.  woman  or  child.  While  in  a 
sense  a  fraternal  publication,  in  that  il  <  un- 
to the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  and 
publishes  news  concerning  their  affairs,  it  is 
really  a  magazine  of  general  California  infor- 
mation, and  its  historical  stories  and  several 
departments  contain  matters  that  interest 
the  public  generally. 

Every  Parlor  of  Native  Sons  should  see  fco 
it  that  The  Grizzly  BeaT  is  a  monthly  visitor 
to  each  of  its  members'  homes.  The  publish 
ers  of  the  magazine  make  this  possible  for 
every  Parlor,  no  matter  how  small  or  how 
large,  by  offering  a  very  materially  reduced 
subscription  rate  under  this  agreement.  These 
rates  are  also  open  to  Native  Daughter  Pal- 
lors, under  like  agreement,  and  they  could 
also  adopt  this  course  with  much  benefit  to 
themselves. 

If  your  Parlor  is  not  among  those  pro 
gressive  Parlors  that  send  the  official  organ 
to  all  members,  it  should  be,  and  yon.  as  a 
member,  should  take  up  the  matter  and  as- 
certain why  the  Parlor  does  not.  If  tin-  Par 
lor  is  interested  and  wants  further  informa- 
tion, a  letter  to  that  effect  addressed  to  the 
publishers  will  bring  the  information  imme- 
diately. 


Natives,  Take  Notice! 

A  Native  Son  Button,  if  well  made,  will  last  a 
lifetime;  so  why  wear  cheap  Eastern-made  junk, 
when  you  can  buy  well  made,  solid  gold  Buttons 
from

S.G.W.,  aided  by  the  citizens  of.  the 
progressive   Sonoma   County   city,   is 
fast    getting    things    into    shape    for 
the  coming  of  the  thousands  of  Na- 
tive   Sons,    Native    Daughters,    and 
their    friends,    who    will    gather    in 
Santa  Rosa,  September  9th,  to  cele- 
brate   the    sixty  first    anniversary   of 
California's  admission   to   statehood. 
Immediately  following  the  N.S.G.W. 
Grana  Parlor's  selection  as  the  cele- 
bration  city,   Santa   Rosa  Parlor   appointed   a   com- 
mittee   to    handle    the    various    details.      This    com- 
mittee,  in   turn,   has   organized   by   the   election   of 
tue  following  officers:     John  P.  Overton,  chairman; 
W.    W.    Skaggs,    secretary,    and     Frank     P.     Doyle, 
treasurer.     The  requisite  subcommittees  have  also 
been  named,  with  the  following  as  chairmen:

Many  of  the  Parlors  of  N.S.G.W.  have  secured 
headquarters  for  the  celebration,  which  indicates  a 
large  attendance.  Santa  Rosa  has  been  the  scene 
of  past  Admission  Day  celebrations,  and  so  well  did 
that  city  then  minister  to  the  wants  and  pleasure 
of  its  thousands  of  guests,  that  every  member  who 
can  possibly  do  so,  is  anxious  to  be  the  city 's 
guest  again  this  year. 

Santa  Rosa  is  able  to  comfortably  care  for  a 
large  crowd,  and  its  citizens'  reputation  for  open- 
handed  hospitality  is  so  state-wide,  that  all  can  be 
assured  of  the  best  accommodations  and  an  enter- 
tainment program  that  will  take  up  every  minute 
of  the  time  alloted  to  the  Admission  Day  festivi- 
ties. A  fine  series  of  events  is  being  planned  for 
the  three  days'  celebration,  including  an  exciting 
automobile   race   along   a   fine   course. 

The  Sonoma  County  Parlors  of  Native"  Sons  will 
have  joint  headquarters  on  the  upper  floor  of  the 
N.S.G.W.  Hall  on  Mendocino  avenue,  where  visit- 
ing Parlors  and  members  will  be  royally  enter- 
tained. The  entire  floor  space,  consisting  of  lodge- 
room,  club-room,  dance-hall  and  banquet-room,  will 
be  used  for  the  purpose,  and  music  will  be  provided 
in  both  the  lodge-room  and  dance-hall.  The  Santa 
Kosa  Native  Sons  Hall  is  not  surpassed  by  any  fra- 
ternal  building   iu   the   State,  in   point  of  elegance,

On  July  25th,  Santa  Rosa  Parlor  gave  a  minstrel 
show  in  the  Columbia  Theater,  for  the  purpose  of

Fitzgerald  and  Jay  Bower  acted  as  end-men.  A 
quartet  consisting  of  Eugene  Sullivan,  Harold

with  vocal  selections.  The  committee  in  charge 
of  the  minstrel  show  was  made  up  of  J.  O.  Smith

THE  CITY  OF  ROSES 

The  home  of  the  world's  greatest  Horticulturist  "Luther  Burbank" 

INVITES    THE  NATIVE  SONS  AND   NATIVE  DAUGHTERS    OF    THE    GOLDEN 
WEST    TO   CELEBRATE    ADMISSION    DAY    AS   ITS    GUESTS 

The  City  of  Santa  Rosa  is  known  for  its  beautiful  roses,  splendid  climate,  and  for 
the  general  hospitable  atmosphere  that  continually  predominates. 


On  the  ninth  of  September,  L911,  one  of  the  most  elaborate  Admission  Day  celebrations  will  be  in  full  force  in  Santa 
Rosa. 

Festivities  galore,  entertainments  to  no  end,  all  placed  before  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden 
West  for  them  to  partake  of,  and  participate  in.  as  the  guests  of  the  Native  Sons  of  Santa  Rosa. 

We  therefore  extend  to  you.  the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  a  most  cordial  welcome  to 
he  present  upon  this  glorious  occasion,  that  we  may  have  an  opportunity  to  bestow  upon  you  pleasure  and  joy  galore. 

We  have  many  places  in  Santa  Rosa  and  vicinity  that  are  in  themselves  worthy  of  the  trials  and  tribulations,  if  there 
are  any  that  go  with  the  effort,  to  see  them. 

Thirteen  miles  out  of  Santa  Rosa,  we  have  a  petrified  forest  that  covers  in  the  vicinity  of  200  acres.  Within  Santa 
Rosa,  we  have  beautiful  buildings;  we  have  to  our  credit  more  steel  frame  and  reinforced  concrete  buildings  than  any 
other  city  of  Santa  Rosa's  population   on  the   Pacific   Coast. 

Thousands  and  thousands  of  pleasure  seekers  pass  through  this  city  en  route  to  the  Russian  River  district  and  the 
famous  Geysers  of  Sonoma  County. 

We  have  the  honor  and  distinction  of  having  in  our  city  Luther  Burbank.  His  experimental  grounds  are  here,  and 
can  be  plainly  seen  from  the  street. 

Santa  Rosa's  Resolutions  for  this  Grand  Event  are,  that  the  city  is  yours;  we  bid  you  welcome  unconditionally

THEY  WERE  "CORK"  LEGS,  SURE. 

A  well-dressed  Irishman  boarding  a  car  at  the 
front  end.  asked  the  motorman:  "Faith,  sor-r, 
and  would  yez  let  a  mon  wid  two  eor-r-k  legs  sit 
here  ferninst  yez?" 

At  the  motorman 's  nod  of  assent,  the  Irishman 
carefully  pulled  his  trousers  up  above  his  shoe-tops, 
as  he  sat  down  on  the  tool-box  seat.  There  was  no 
trace  of  stiffness  in  his  movements,  and  something 
very  suspiciously  like  real  flesh  was  visible  through 
the  silk  hose. 

This  naturally  excited  the  motorman 's  incred- 
ulity, and  he  remarked  quietly.  "Why  do  you  call 
those  'cork5  legs?  They  look  like  the  real  thing 
fu    me. 

"Sure,"  answered  the  Irishman,  "sure,  and  Oi 
was  bor-r-n  in  Cor-r-k. " 


ANTA  ROSA,  THE  CITY  WITH 
the  productive  territory  around  and 
tributary  to  it,  is  an  attractive 
place,  well  built  and  well  governed. 
The  new  County  Court  House  is  a 
structure  of  imposing  beauty,  with 
a  refinement  of  interior  finish  which 
reflects  much  credit  upon  the  city 
and  county  which  erected  it. 

The  modern  business  buildings 
and  commodious  hotels  of  brick, 
steel  frame  and  reinforced  concrete, 
clearly  indicate  the  confidence  of  the  propertj'-own- 
ers  in  the  future  of  the  "City  of  Roses,"  and  of 
Sonoma  Countv,  of  which  it  is  the  seat  and  chief 
city. 

Its  finely  paved  business  streets  are  well  cleaned 
each  night  by  sweeping  machines,  the  street  lights 
are  plentiful,  and  the  city  is  unique  in  owning  a 
water-works  by  which  it  supplies  free  water  to  its 
residents. 

Although  having  a  population  estimated  to  be  in 
excess  of  10,000.  and  with  a  dense  settlement  with- 
out the  city  limits,  a  police  force  numbering  four, 
including  the  chief,  amply  suffices  to  keep  order 
and   enforce  the   laws. 

Santa  Rosa  "s  manufactures  are  diversified. 
Among  the  manufactured  articles  may  be  mentioned 
shoes,  leather,  gloves,  beer,  soda  water,  flour,  feed 
stuffs,    candy,    fine    art    novelties,    art    leather,    ice, 


does  the  survey  show  a  gradient  in  excess  of  two 
and  six-tenths  per  cent,  notwithstanding  the  climb 
of  the  lofty  Mt.  St.  Helena  (made  famous  in  story 
by  the  late  Robert  Louis  Stevenson). 

From  this  mountain,  4000  feet  in  height,  which 
is  really  more  like  a  ridge  of  considerable  length, 
twenty-two  counties  are  within,  reach  of  the  eye. 
so  the  road  will,  indeed,  be  scenic.  It  will  touch 
many  prominent  resorts  and  springs  on  its  sixty 
mile  run  into  Lake  County,  well  named  the 
"Switzerland  of  America,"  and  also  Kellogg,  the 
site  of  the  proposed  State  Manual  Training  School, 
Knight's  Valley,  Middletown,  Petrified  Forest  and 
Lower    Lake. 

This  line  will  be  operated  by  the  successful  and 
economical  gasoline  torpedo  motor  cars  now  in 
general  use  in  the  United  States.  A  regular  pas- 
senger and  tourist  service  will  be  inaugurated,  and 
much  freight  will  be  hauled  in  special  freight 
trains.  The  road  will  be  narrow-gauge  and  well 
constructed. 

Santa  Rosa  is  to  be  congratulated  on  being  made 
the  southerly  terminus  of  this  railroad,  for  which 
there  has  been  an  insistent  demand  for  many 
years.  The  present  travel  to  and  from  the  many 
springs  and  summer  resorts  along  the  line  and  in 
Lake  County,  is  very  heavy,  but  is  only  a  small" 
fraction  of  what  the  Santa  Rosa  and  Clear  Lake 
Scenic  Railway  is  destined  to  make  it.  The  elimi- 
nation of  the  arduous  aud  lengthy  stage  rides,  now 


butter,  creamery  products,  iron  castings,  sheet 
metal  work,  printing,  harness,  fruit  packing,  meat 
packing,    etc. 

The  experimental  establishment  of  Luther  Bur- 
bank  must  not  be  forgotten,  as  it  is  a  large  factor 
in  making  Santa  Rosa  famous  the  world  over;  for, 
were  not  Sonoma  County  "s  climate  and  soil  ex- 
ceptionally good,  this  noted  scientist  would  not 
have  selected  the  "City  of  Roses"  as  his  head- 
quarters, nor  would  he  have  remained  in  Sonoma 
<  'ounty  for  thirty  years.  As  it  is,  the  county 
owes  much  to  Mr.  Burbank,  while  he.  in  turn,  owes 
much  to  the  responsive  soil  and  climate  of  the 
county. 

The  hops,  grapes,  apples,  berries  and  diversified 
fruits,  both  citrus  and  deciduous,  of  this  favored 
region;  its  natural  wonders,  resorts,  mineral 
springs,  fine  scenery,  good  roads,  and  last,  but  not 
least,  the  geniality  and  friendliness  of  the  inhab- 
itants, all  go  to  make  Sonoma  County  and  Santa 
Rosa  the  mecca  of  all  who  desire  a  really  good 
time  on  September  Sth,  9th  and  10th,  and  the  best 
spots   in    California   to    have   it. 


recognized  as  a  trying  but  necessary  part  of  all 
travel  to  and  from  beautiful  Lake  County,  will  be 
hailed  with  joy  by  thousands  of  people,  and  will 
prove  a  great  incentive  for  the  growing  tourist 
travel  of  Central  California  to  visit  the  regions 
tapped  by  this  excellent  enterprise. 

Gus  Long,  an  active  and  popular  member  of 
Santa  Rosa  Parlor,  N.S.G.W.,  has  been  made  fiscal 
agent  of  the  company,  to  whom  intending  investors 
are  referred.  Milton  A.  Nathan,  a  Past  President 
of  Army  and  Navy  Parlor  of  San  Francisco,  is  at 
the  head  of  the  enterprise  and  was  interviewed  by 
The  Grizzly  Bear  representative  while  in  Santa 
Rosa  on  July  18th.  He,  on  that  date,  paid  into  the 
bank  $5000  for  the  first  stretch  of  grading  work, 
which  will  commence  at  the  city  limits  of  the 
"City  of  Roses."  From  all  of  which  it  is  evident 
that  the  county  seat  of  Sonoma  County  will  soon 
control  the  very  considerable  territory  herein  de- 
scribed, to  the  mutual  benefit  of  the  city  and  the 
territory.

Co.  is  about  to  build  its  sixty  miles  of  scenic  line, 
and  has  let  the  contract  for  the  grading,  which 
work  will  begin  early  in  August.  A  remarkable 
feature  of  this  new  line,  and  one  which  proved  a 
great  surprise  to  the  engineers,  is  that  at  no  point

GRAND    PRESIDENT  S    OFFICIAL    NOTICE. 
NO.    2. 

!,«.s  Angeles,   August    I.   L911. 

To  the  Officers  and  Members  of  the  Subordinate 
Parlors  of  the  wative  Sons  of  the  Golden  West — 
Dear  sirs  and  Brothers:  Ii  In  ■(-nines  my  pleasant 
duty,  under  the  Constitution,  as  the  Sixty-first  An 
n  i  \  ersa  \\  of  the  admission  of  California  into  the 
Sisterhood  of  States  approaches,  to  send  greetings 
tp  *  *  ery  Parlor  in  um-  Order,  and  to  request  that 
each  Parlor  make  such  arrangements  for  the  proper 
commemoration  of  the  admission  <>f  California  into 
tin1  Union  as  may  seem  to  it  appropriate. 

The  general  celebration  of  Admission  Day  tins 
year,  under  the  auspices  of  the  Grand  Parlor,  will 
be  held  in  the  city  of  Santa  Rosa,  and  all  Parlors 
and  all  members  of  the  Order  that  can  do  so,  are 
requested  to  participate  therein.  Santa  Rosa  Par- 
lor, No.  28,  aided  03  the  other  Parlors  of  Sonoma 
County,  is  sparing  no  efforts  in  an  endeavor  to  make 
this  year's  celebration  worthy  of  our  Order  and  of 
our  State,  and  those  efforts  should  receive,  as  they 
justly  merit,  the  cordial  and  active  co-operation  of 
every  Parlor  and  of  every  member  of  the  Order 
near   enough   to   attend. 

But  where  distance  or  business  affairs  make  it  im- 
possible for  Parlors  or  members  to  attend  the  gen- 
eral celebration  at  Santa  Rosa,  I  trusl  arrange 
ments  will  be  made  to  fittingly  commemorate  the 
a|>l'n..'ii'hii]g  Admission  l»ay.  either  through  Parlors 
congregating  at  a  convenient  point  or  in  the  meet 
ing  place  ox  each  Parlor,  there  to  carry  out  some 
special   services  commemorative  of  the  day. 

The  setting  apart  of  Admission  Day  as  a  legal 
holiday  was  due  originally  to  the  efforts  of  our  Oi- 
lier, and  by  common  consent  of  the  people  of  the 
State  its  celebration  has  been  given  into  our  keep- 
ing. Let  us  see  ti»  it,  then,  thai  the  great  Order  to 
which  we  belong  shall  worthily  com  memo  rate  the 
admission  of  the  State  which  our  fathers  founded 
and    loved,    the   State    in    which   we   ourselves   were

ifornia, than  a  modernization  of  the  old  Spanish 
patio  house,  with  its  spacious  open  verandas,  cool 
interior  court,  expansive  plastered  exterior  walls, 
and  graceful  and  artistic  tile  roof.  It  was  the  first 
style  of  architecture  used  by  the  early  Spanish  set- 
tlers in  California,  and  it  was  only  when  people 
began  to  congregate  and  rorra  large  cities  that  the 
value  of  land  made  this  style  impracticable.  How- 
ever, it  still  remains,  in  the  mind  of  the  writer,  the 
ideal  form  of  house  for  a  country  ranch  or  subur- 
ban town,  where  the  value  of  land  is  not  measured 
by  inches,  as  well  as  ideal  from  the  viewpoints  of 
convenience  and  beauty  and,  what  is  more  import- 
ant than  all  else,  health. 

The  example  of  the  Spanish  patio  house  pictured 
above,  was  recently  completed  in  Whittier,  a  su- 
burban town  of  Los  Angeles.  The  building  is  in 
t  ne  form  of  a  square,  sixty  feet  across  the  front 
and  ninety  five  feet  deep.  A  spacious  patio  court, 
-18x30  feet,  entirely  open  to  the  sky,  occupies  the 
central  portion  of  the  building,  as  will  be  noted 
from  the  view  shown  above.     This  patio  has  a  large 


fountain  in  the  center,  from  which  emanate  wind- 
ing brick  walks,  enclosing  set  flower  beds  of  trop- 
ical palms  and  other  plants  which,  being  sheltered 
on  all  sides  from  the  winds,  grow  luxuriantly.  A 
tile  covered  brick  porch  extends  down  one  side  of 
the  patio,  off  which  branch  the  five  bed-rooms, 
while  on  the  opposite  side  of  the  court  are  placed 
the  breakfast-room,  dining-room,  kitchen  depart- 
ment, etc. 

A  living-room  sixty  feet  long  occupies  the  front 
of  the  building.  A  porch  runs  across  the  entire 
front  of  the  building,  excepting  that  portion  which 
is  occupied  by  a  sun  parlor  opening  from  the  liv- 
ing-room. 

The  building  is  so  arranged  that  none  of  the  win- 
dows of  the  kitchen  department  open  upon  the 
court,  thus  giving  seclusion  to  the  occupants  of  the 
patio.  The  breakfast-room  opens  upon  the  court, 
opposite  the  fountain.  It  has  six  glass  doors,  thus 
making  it  possible  to  entirely  throw  open  the  side 
of  the  breakfast-room  facing  the  court  and  having 
it  virtually  an  outside  room,  if  desired. 

A  pair  of  massive  iron  gates  enclose  the  rear  ten- 
foot-wide  entrance  to  the  court,  making  it  entirely 


secure  at  night  and  enabling  the  occupants  to  sleep 
outside  during  warm  summer  evenings,  a  practice 
which  is  rapidly  becoming  popular  and  necessitating 
the  addition  of  exterior  sleeping  porches  to  all  mod- 
ern  residences. 

A  unique  feature  in  the  plan  of  this  house  is  pro- 
vided by  the  den,  which  is  situated  in  the  second 
story,  over  the  living-room,  and  being  the  only  sec- 
ond-story room.  The  way  to  this  den  is  a  rough 
exterior  stairway,  leading  directly  off  the  court. 
Balconies  project  from  both  sides  of  the  den,  that 
is,  on  the  front  ana  on  the  rear,  overlooking  the 
court. 

The  building  above  described  has  three  bath- 
rooms and  six  bed-rooms,  is  steam  heated,  and  is 
furnished  with  all  modern  conveniences.  It  cost, 
complete,   $12,000. 

All  the  exterior  walls  are  completely  plastered 
with  cement  plaster,  on  expanded  metal  lath,  and 
trimmed1  with  Chatsworth  Park  sandstone,  thus 
making  a  house  that  is  free  from  the  necessity  of 
painting  every  two  or  three  years.  All  windows 
are  of  Spanish  casement  design,  extending  nearly 
to    the   floor. 


NEW    LIEN    LAW    IN    EFFECT. 

A  new  mechanics'  lien  law  adopted  by  the  last 
Legislature,  known  as  the  "Kehoe"  bill,  went  into 
effect  July  1st.  It  makes  the  owner  of  a  building 
under  construction  responsible  for  labor  and  ma- 
terial furnished  instead  of  the  general  contractor. 
In  case  of  a  lien  being  filed,  the  value  of  the  ma- 
terial and  the  labor  shall  govern  the  amounts  of 
the  lien  claims.  This  places  the  responsibility  of 
seeing  that  the  bills  are  paid  directly  upon  the 
owner  of  the  property.  The  law  protects  material 
men  and  laboring  men  against  dishonest  contract- 
ors, and  the  owner,  or  the  architect  for  his  client, 


must   require  bonds  and  receipts  as   the   work   pro- 
gresses. 


BUILDING   OPERATIONS  IN   CALIFORNIA. 

The  American  Contractor,  Chicago,  has  -made  pub- 
lic statistics  showing  the  country's  building  per- 
mits from  January  1st  to  July  1,  1911.  Among 
the  cities  at  the  top  of  the  column  were  two  in 
Calirornia,  namely,  Los  Angeles  and  San  Francisco, 
the  former  holding  fourth  place  with  permits  total- 
ing $11,556,573,  and  the  latter  fifth  place,  with  per- 
mits to  the  value  of  $10,926,641.  Oakland's  per- 
mits are  totaled  at  $3,423,596.     As  compared  with

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


August,   191 


*     PROFESSIONAL 


[Xi  K  THE  JULY  ISSUE  OF  THE 
Grizzly  Bear,  tbe  standing  of  the 
Clubs  in  the  Pacific  Coast  League 
has  undergone  some  changes.  Sac- 
ramento and  Vernon  were  on  the 
road  most  of  the  time  during  the 
first  three  weeks  of  July  and  both 
teams  have  done  exceptionally  well 
in  holding  their  opponents  more 
than  even.  Portland  has  done  still 
better,  but  they  have  been  on  their 
own  grounds,  playing  before  en- 
couraging audiences.  The  Clubs  representing  the 
Bay  region  have  both  lost  ground.  San  Francisco's 
pitching  staff  needs  mending,  or  new  material. 
Who  would  have  thought  this  ninety  days  ago 
when  it  was  not  uncommon  to  hear  made  such  a 
remark  as  "'Frisco  should  win  the  eppant  in  a 
walk  With  such  a  classy  lot  of  heavers  to  select 
from?"  Here  are  the  names  of  those  who  were 
on  the  roster  when  the  season  commenced:  Henley, 
Sutor,  Browning,  Miller,  Meikle,  Moskiman,  East- 
ley  and  Fielder.  Captain  Dillon's  Angel  Band  are 
more  firmly  entrenched  in  the  cellar,  having  won 
but   two   out   of  the  last  thirteen  games. 


Notes    of    the    Diamond. 

Carlisle,  since  his  remarkable  catch  of  a  short 
fly  in  centerfield  on  the  20th  of  July,  by  which  he 
was  able  to  complete  an  unassisted  triple  play, 
seems  aestined  to  have  his  name  emblazoned  on 
the    pages   of   baseball    history. 

Pitcher  "Spec"  Harkness  is  again  on  the  Port- 
land pay  roll  after  an  absence  of  nearly  four 
months,  during  which  time  he  was  being  tried  out 
by  Cleveland.  He  has  started  in  two  games  for 
Portland  to  date,  being  beaten  each  time,  once  by 
Vernon  and  the  other  by  San  Francisco,  being  the 
only  game  of  the  series  won  by  the  Mohlerites. 

Prick  up  your  ears,  ye  rans,  and  hearken  to  this: 
Vean  Gregg.  Nap  southpaw,  hero  of  fifteen  vic- 
tories out  of  eighteen  starts,  says  he  hasn't  started 
to  pitch  good  ball  yet.  Vean  says  his  left  shoul- 
der it  still  sore  and  hasn  't  been  right  all  season 
and  that  as  soon  as  he  gets  it  feeling  good  he  will 
show  Cleveland  some   real  pitching. 

Cleveland  had  not  clinched  the  deal  for  Buddy 
^iyan,  the  Coast  star,  at  last  accounts.  John  I. 
A  ay  lor  thinks  he  has  a  claim  and  Comiskey  also 
has  a  bid  in.  Scout  Jim  McGuire  of  the  Naps 
has  gone  to  Portland  to  finally  pass  on  Ryan  and 
also  to  see  how  Dave  Gregg,  the  brother  of  the  star 
Nap  ninger,  is  getting  alone. 

Never  has  the  American  Association  had  a  hitter 
of  the  Cravath  type.  The  fans  all  over  the  circuit 
are  stirred  up  by  his  wonderful  feats  with  the 
willow.  One  home  run  for  Cravath  is  nothing. 
Two  simply  makes  them  sit  up  and  take  notice. 
Three  is  more  like  it.  In  every  game  Gavy  is 
stinging  the  pellet,  and  stinging  it  to  all  corners  of 
the  ball  field.  In  a  recent  game  with  Kansas  City, 
Cravath  was  the  king  pin  batter  of  the  day.  Out 
of  ^.e  times  at  bat  he  only  made  five  hits.  One 
was  a  little  two-base  hit  and  two  were  dinky 
home  runs.  A  bad  day's  work  for  Cravath.  The 
day  before  he  poled  a  homer,  and  the  day  before 
this  a  couple  of  three-base  drives.  O,  yes,  -  this 
Cravath  is  a  poor  hitter.  Detroit  will  in  all  proba- 
bility land  Cravath.  If  he  hits  for  the  Tigers  like 
he  is  hitting  for  Minneapolis,  the  Detroit  outfield 
will  be  unbeatable,  with  Cobb  and  Crawford  round-

Options   Soon  to   Expire. 

The  National  Baseball  Commission  has  promul- 
gated a  list  of  all  major  league  players  who  have 
been  sold  to  minor  clubs  under  agreements  approved 
by  the  commission  and  containing  options  held  by 
the  various  major  league  clubs  to  repurchase  such 
players  on  August  20,  1911.  Among  them  are  the 
following: 

American  League:  By  Philadelphia  to  Spokane, 
Bonner;  by  Chicago  to  San  Francisco,  McDonald  and 
Weaver,  to  Oakland,  Tozer;  by  Detroit  to  Oak- 
land, Pernoll,  to  Seattle,  Skeels;  by  Boston  to  Sac- 
ramento, Mahoney.  Lerehen  and  Thomas;  by  New 
York  to  Oakland,  Abies;  by  Cleveland  to  Portland, 
Fanwell,  Peckinbaugh,  Bradley,  Branden  and  Koest- 
ner;  by  St.  Louis  to  Oakland.  Gregory. 

The  National  Commission  has  decided  that  a  ma- 
jor league  club  deciding  to  recall  any  players  must 
notify  the  secretary  of  the  commission,  as  well  as 
the  minor  league  club  concerned,  on  or  before  6 
p.m.  August  20th,  if  it  intends  to  exercise  its 
option. 


Racing  at  Woodland,  Hanford,  Fresno. 

While  the  race-track  has  been  put  out  of  busi- 
ness in  this  State,  horse-racing  is  by  no  means  a 
dead  sport.  Everybody  enjoys  an  honest  horse-race, 
and  the  only  reason  the  race-track  was  legislated 
out  of  business  was  because  it  had  become  to  be 
solely  a  gambling  den,  and  races  were  run  dishon- 
estly to  make  money  for  gamblers,  and  not  to  see 
which  horses  had  the  most  speed.  The  closing  of  the 
race-tracks,  therefore,  has  been  the  best  thing  for 
horse-racing  in  California,  and  both  admirers  and 
breeders  of  fast  horses  will  eventually  be  the  gain- 
ers thereby.  Racing  is  very  much  alive  today,  and 
several  meets  are  on  the  cards  for  the  nest  two  or 
three  months,  all  of  which  will  have  many  entries 
and  will  be  well  attended  by  lovers  of  the  horse 
and  the  honest  horse-race: 

Under  the  auspices  of  the  Woodland  Driving  Club, 
there  will  be  a  race  meet  in  that  city,  August  9th, 
10th,  11th  and  12th,  for  which  the  following  races 
have  been  arranged:  2:15  pace,  $600;  2:16  trot. 
$500;  3-year-old  pace,  $500;  3-j'ear-old  trot,  $500; 
2:10'  pace,  $500;  2:20  pace,  $500;  2:12  trot.  $600; 
2:30  trot,  $500;  free-for-all  trot,  $500;  2:05  pace. 
$500. 

Tne  Kings  County  Fair  Association  will  hold  a 
fair  and  race  meeting  at  Hanford.  September  25th 
to  October  1st.  Entries  for  the  following  races 
close  August  10th:  September  26th — 2:30  trot, 
$500;  2:20  pace,  $1000.  September  27th— 2:16  trot. 
$1000;  2:09  pace,  $500.  September  28th— 2:25,  3-

$1000.  September  30th— 2:12  trot,  $500;  2:15  pace, 
$1000.  All  races  will  be  mile  heats,  three  in  five, 
excepting  the  2:40  trot  and  pace  for  2.-year-olds. 
which  will  be  two  in  three. 

The  Fresno  County  Agricultural  Association  will 
hold  the  "Fresno  Fair"  at  that  city  October  3rd  to 
8th.  and  races  will  be  held  in  conjunction  therewith.

purse  of  $500. 

Border  to  Border  Endurance  Eun. 
A  Pacific  Coast  endurance  run  from  border  to  bor- 
der, Mexico  to  Canada,  is  to  be  held  by  Sunset  Mag- 
azine the  latter  part  of  this  summer  or  early  au- 
tumn, conditions  being  favorable,  and  to  stimulate 
interest  and  insure  success,  a  handsome  and  appro- 
priate trophy  will  be  offered.  The  run  will  be  or- 
ganized on  a  basis  similar  to  the  well-known  Glid- 
den  and  Munsey  tours  of  tne  Atlantic  Coast.  It  is 
believed  the  time  is  opportune  to  prove  the  touring 
possibilities  offered  by  this  Western  country,  and  a 
tour  held  at  the  proposed,  season  will  bring  most 
beneficial  results  to  all  concerned.  It  is  desired  to 
start  the  pathfinder  from  San  Diego  the  middle  of 
this  month.  The  entrance  fee  will  not  exceed  $50, 
and  payable  at  a  date  to  be  annoonced  later. 


Date  Set  for  Road  Race. 

The  Santa  Monica  automobile  road  races  will  this 
year  be  held  October  14th,  with  A.  M.  Young  of 
Los  Angeles  as  official  manager,  the  date  having 
been  decided  at  a  joint  meeting  of  the  Santa  Monica 
City  Trustees  and  the  Race  Committee  of  the  Auto- 
mobile Dealers'  Association  at  Santa  Monica,  July 
17th. 

The  course  will  be  put  in  perfect  condition,  and 
attractive  prizes  will  be  offered  contestants.  Last 
year's  races  over  the  Santa  Monica  course  drew  an 
immense  crowd,  and  time  records  were  broken  in 
many  cases.  It  is  expected  this  year's  events,  with 
an  improved  course,  will '  draw  the  largest  crowd 
ever  at  an  automobile  race-course  on  this  Coast,  and 
with  a  better  course,  there  should  be  some  exceed- 
ingly fast  and  interesting  events. 


For  the   August   Hunter. 

Under  the  new  State  hunting  law,  which  divided 
the  State  into  districts,  hunters  can  kill  deer  in 
District  Six  from  August  15th  to  September  15th; 
limit  two  bucks  to  each  individual. 

Fifteen  cottontail  or  bush  rabbits  ean  be  bagged 
in  one  uay,  in  all  districts,  from  August  1st  to  Feb- 
ruary 1st. 

Doves  to  the  -number  of  twenty  in  one  day,  are 
available  in  Districts  Two  and  Five,  from  August 
1st  to  October  15th. 

Under  the  new  law,  it  is  illegal  to  take  game 
from  one  district  into  another,  when  the  season  is 
not  open  in  both  districts. 


NEVADA  CITY  CURLY  BEARS 

DEVOUR  MANY  FOLSOM   TE1STDERFEET. 

Nevada  City — Curly  Bear  Cave,  No.  19,  was  in- 
stituted at  Folsom,  Saturday,  July  15th,  a  party 
of  Big  Bears  from  Cave  No.  1,  in  this  city,  going 
over  to  bring  into  the  cave  the  tenderfeet  of  Gran- 
ite Parlor  of  Native  Sons  who  had  expressed  a 
willingness  to  beard  the  bear  in  his  den.  Previous 
to  the  festivities,  the  Curlies  from  Nevada  City. 
headed  by  Grand  Curly  Bear  Tom  Richards,  pa- 
raded Folsom 's  streets,  with  the  victims  in  chains, 
and  created  so  much  enthusiasm  by  their  growls 
that  the  people  of  Folsom,  as  well  as  from  miles 
around,  gathered  along  the  line  of  march  to  enjoy 
the   fun. 

The  visitors  were  met  at  the  train  in  Folsom  by 
a  committee  of  Native  Sons,  and  were  given  the 
freedom  of  the  city,  devoting  all  afternoon  to  sight- 
seeing. Sunday,  they  spent  at  Sacramento,  and  re- 
turned home  tired  but  happy,  Sunday  evening.

CALIFORNIA'S  LEGISLATURE   THOUGHT 

LITTLE   OF    O'JR   TIMBER    RESERVES. 

What  California  lias  to. lay  in  merchantable  tun 
her.  and  u  hat  a  reus  of  the  State  exist  which  are 
■■a  pa  I  ilo  ot  forests,  are  shown  by  a  forest  map 
Compiled  and  just  issued  from  Sacramento  by  State 
Forester  G.  M.  Soman s.  The  map  is  a  picture  of 
natural  wealth  winch  the  following  figures,  sup 
plied   by   Mr.    Ho  mans,   tell    in   another    way: 

' '  There  are  approximately  1 00,000.000  acres 
within  the  State,  and  upwards  of  1 6,000,000  acres 
produce,  or  could  lie  made  to  produce,  merchantable 
timber.  Nearly  one  third  of  the  State  is  in  s(.me 
degree  forested.  The  standing  timber  measures 
more  than  381,000, 1,000  board  feet  and  has  a  mar- 
ket  value  of  $7n().(i0u,(ini). 

■ '  ( rovernment  forest  reserves  include  approxi- 
mately 27.oo0.ooo  acres,  of  which  11,000,000  acres 
are  government  timber  land  and  s,aO0,0i(0  acres  are 
privately  owned.      . t    is  only  on    these   reservations 

that    scientific    forestry,    which    seeks    to    maintain    a 

permanenl  timber  supply  for  all  the  people,  is  being 
practiced.  Everywhere  else  timber  is  either  being 
cut  down  and  marketed  without  much  thought  for 
the    future    of    the    land    cut    over,    or    held    against 


i  lie  expected   raise  in  prices.     Tin'  Southern    I

INERAL  PRODUCTS  OF  TEN 
years  in  California  amounting  to 
$478,464,087  are  accounted  for  by- 
counties  and  by  substances,  in  Bul- 
letin 60  of  the  California  State  Min- 
ing Bureau,  which  has  just  been  is- 
sued by  State  Mineralogist  Aubury. 
The  period  of  ten  years  includes  the 
period  1900-1909,  inclusive  of  both 
the  years  mentioned.  In  addition  to 
this  great  showing  of  mineral  values 
that  the  State  has  produced  in  the 
decade,  Bulletin  60  shows  a  value  of  $309,000,000 
in  petroleum  that  has  been  produced  from  the  first 
discovery  of  petroleum  down  to  the  end  of  1909, 
and  $1,508,513,000  in  gold  from  the  date  of  the 
original  discovery  of  that  precious  metal  down  to 
the  end  of  the  calendar  year  1909.  How  rich 
scores  of  counties  in  California  are  in  minerals  of 
various  sorts  is  indicated  by  a  tabulation  which 
gives  a  summary  of  production  for  each  county

Glenn  County  first  reports  production  in  1909. 
Bulletin  60  has  two  important  sections,  in  addi- 
tion to  the  statistical  portion,  which  include  a 
great  number  of  tabulations,  each  having  adver- 
tising value  for  California.  The  two  added  sec- 
tions are  devoted  to  the  text  of  laws  and  to  maps 
of  California  counties.  On  the  maps  are  depicted 
steam  and  electric  railways,  highways,  etc.,  which 
supply  a  pocket  directory  for  tourists,  while  the 
Laws,  printed  in  full,  relate  to  many  important 
topics.  The  acts  of  the  last  Legislature  are  in- 
cluded and  given  conspicuous  place. 


ALLEGED  FAKE  MINING  PROMOTER 

ARRESTED   BY   OAKLAND   POLICE. 

The  ^akland  police,  on  July  18th,  at  the  instiga- 
tion of  State  Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury,  ar- 
rested A.  E.  Williams,  a  real  estate  agent  doing  bus- 
iness in  that  city  at  1058  Broadway,  on  a  charge 
based  upon  certain  alleged  acts  of  Williams  in  con- 
nection with  the  "Calaveras  Consolidated  Mining 
Company."  Mrs.  Annie  Olud  of  1026^  Oak  street, 
Oakland,  alleges  that  she  formerly  owned  the  min- 
ing claim  situated  on  the  eastern  belt  of  the  Mother 
Lode,  in  Calaveras  County,  known  as  "Secret  Dig- 
gings.7J  Williams,  so  she  says,  called  upon  her  and 
proposed  to  form  a  company  to  be  known  as  the 
Calaveras  Consolidated  Mining  Company,  the  plan 
to  include  the  transfer  of  her  claim  to  the  com- 
pany, and  she  was  to  receive  stock  of  the  company 
in  payment  for  the  land.  She  assigned  her  claim, 
as  she  supposed,  to  the  company.  The  deed  was  in 
...auk.  Williams  inserted  his  sister's  name  in  it, 
she  also  says.  Mrs.  Giud  took  30,000  shares  of  stock 
in  payment,  which  she  has  since  discovered  to  be 
worthless.  She  took  the  matter  to  the  State  Min- 
eralogist, who  investigated  it.  The  complaint  was 
sworn  to  by  H.  W.  Gray,  who  is  an  employe  of  the 
►state  Mining  Bureau. 

Mrs.  Glud's  claim  contained  2,000  acres.  In  a 
prospectus  of  the  Calaveras  Consolidated  Mining 
Company,  which  was  signed  by  Williams,  it  is  rep- 
resented that  the  company  owns  the  2,000  acres; 
that  the  property  is  paid  for,  and  that  the  land 
yields  from  twenty-five  cents  to  ten  dollars  per 
cubic  yard,  and  that  there  are  48,400,000  cubic 
yards  in  the  tract.     The  State  Mineralogist  has  as- 


mine  have  created  an  excitement  among  the  min- 
ers of  the  Forest  Hill  Divide,  second  only  to  that 
brought  on  by  the  marvelous  find  at  the  Three 
Queens  by  Wingfield  in  1908,  and  the  new  discov- 
ery has  set  all  the  local  experts  guessing.  Miners 
are  looking  up  and  making  locations  adjoining  in 
the  hope  that  the  new  find  will  prove  a  bonanza. 
The  vein  carries  not  only  gold,  but  a  metal  which 
some  pronounce  tellurium  or  telluride,  its  oxide. 
Others  claim  it  is  not  telluride,  as  gold  in  that  me- 
dium has  never  been  found  in  the  district.  The  for- 
mation is  on  a  large  scale,  as  a  drift  has  been  run 
across  for  sixty  feet  without  finding  a  change.  The 
vein  lies  between  the  ravine  from  the  old  hydraulic 
pit  on  the  Mayflower  and  the  Wasson  Canyon.  It 
is  said  the  Mayflower  ground  embraces  about  a  mile 
and  a  half  of  the  new  formation. 


Big  El  Dorado  Mining  Deal. 
The  largest  mining  deal  ever  manipulated  in  El 
Dorado  County  was  closed  recently  when  the  El 
Dorado  Water  and  Deep  Gravel  Mining  Company 
conveyed,  for  one  million  dollars,  all  its  mining 
claims  and  mineral  holdings  (including  more  than 
forty  specific  claim  groups  and  the  Pacific  Quartz 
and  Excelsior  mines)  to  the  Placerville  Gold  Mining 
Company.  The  final  papers  in  the  transaction  have 
been  filed  at  Placerville  in  the  office  of  the  County 
Recorder.  The  new  company  will  have  its  princi- 
pal place  of  business  at  Placerville,  with  A.  B. 
Gould  as  the  resident  manager. 


Property  Bonded  for  Immense  Sum. 
San  Francisco   capitalists  and  mining  men   have 


Miners    at    a   California    Postoffice    in    the    Days    of    '49. 


certained  that  all  but  three  claims  in  the  2,000 
acres  are  held  by  other  persons.  It  is  alleged  also 
that  the  company  never  developed  the  property, 
nor  even  performed  assessment  work  to  hold  it.  This 
arrest  is  in  line  with  the  commendable  policy  of  the 
State  Mineralogist  to  stop  the  practices  of  fake 
mining  promoters,  who  are  discrediting  legitimate 
mining  operations  in  California  with  the  investing 

public.  

Excitement  in  Placer  County. 
According  to  the  Auburn,  Placer  County,  Herald 
of  July  1st,  recent  aevelopments  at  the  White  Oak 


bonded  for  $2,500,000  the  Tightner  mine  at  Alle- 
ghany, Sierra  County,  which  the  present  owner  se- 
cured for  practically  nothing,  after  it  had  been  re- 
peatedly passed  up  as  of  little  value  by  local  min- 
ers. It  is  said  that  H.  C.  Johnson,  who  owns  the 
property,  has  already  taken  out  $1,000,000,  and  that 
the  ore  blocked  out  will  run  into  another  million. 
The  bonders  nave  decided  to  put  in  a  complete  mod- 
ern milling  plant  and  are  so  pleased  with  the  out- 
look of  the  property  that  they  will  undoubtedly 
take  it  over  outright  at  the  end  of  the  bond,  which 
has  but  a  short  time  to  run.

ture of  $70,000,  completed  a  tunnel  and  cut  6600 
feet  long  through  solid  granite  and  bedrock,  which

to  work.  Their  first  week's  work  cleaned  up  $1100 
in  gold  dust. 

A  marble  quarry  was  opened  in  Tuolumne  County

A  quartz  ledge  found  at  Snow  Point,  on  the  Yuba

''the  states,"  it  was  therefore  a  matter  of  little 
moment  to  them  who  were  chosen  members  of  the 
Legislature.  He  gave  orders  to  the  hotel  and  saloon 
men  to  lie  very  liberally  disposed  toward  his  friends 
mi  election  day.  They  took  him  at  his  word,  as  the 
following  bill  for  the  Downieville  precinct  shows:

Downieville,  Oct.  9,  1850. 
The  Legislature  met  at  San  -Tose  on  the  first  Mon- 
day of  January,  1851,  and  Field  was  placed  on  the 
judiciary  committee.  What  he  did  for  defining  the 
power  and  jurisdiction  of  the  courts  and  judicial 
officers  of  the  State;  for  the  procedure  in  civil  and 
criminal  cases,  and  for  placing  our  laws  on  a  firm 
and  equitable  basis,  is  another  story. 


When   Field  turned  towards  Marysville,  lie  wai    in 
a   pecuniary   sense    ruined.      Me    bad    barelj    enough 

money  to  pay  ins  passage  home.     On  ace |   of  a

so  many  maelstroms  into  which  his  investments  were 
not     only     drained     but      swallowed     up.        When      lie

Resolutions  Commendatory  to  Miss  Frakes. 
San  Francisco — Keith  Parlor,  No.  137,  has  adopt- 
ed the  following  resolutions,  prepared  by  a  commit- 
tee composed  of  Elizabeth  Graham,  president,  L. 
Mae  Edwards,  recording  secretary,  and  Dr.  A.  F. 
Temple,  chairman: 


All  news  of  SUBORDINATE  PARLORS 
will  oe  published  gratuitously  in  these  col- 
umns, as  has  always  been  done,  provided  same 
is  vouched  for  by  some  reliable  party,  and 
provided  further,  that  copy  reaches  the  office 
of  publication,  248  Wilcox  Bldg.,  Los  Angeles, 
not  later  than  the  TWENTIETH  DAY  of 
each  month. 


Whereas,  Our  beloved  Grand  Secretary,  Laura  J. 
Frakes,  to  whose  untiring  efforts  during  the  past 
eleven  years  much  of  the  success  attained  by  the 
Order  is  due,  feels  impelled  by  the  loving  call  of 
duty  to  give  up  the  work  so  dear  to  her  heart;  and 

Whereas,  The  Order  of  Native  Daughters  of  the 
Golden  West  will  thereby  lose  one  of  its  best  be- 
loved and  most  valued  officers,  honored  and  loved  by 
every  member  of  the  Order;  therefore,  be  it 

Resolved,  That  Keith  Parlor,  No.  137,  N.D.G.W., 
deeply  regrets  that  the  Order  must  lose  this  faith- 
ful officer  from  the  ranks;  Resolved,  That  we  deem 
this  a  personal  loss,  inasmuch  as  this  dear  sister's 
hand  guided  the  faltering  steps  of  our  Parlor  in  its 
infancy  and  with  her  bright,  cheerful  smile  and  ever- 
ready  work  of  encouragement  and  help  removed 
many  stumbling  blocks  from  its  path;  Resolved, 
That  the  loss  sustained  by  the  Order  in  the  removal 
of  this  sister  from  her  present  field  of  labor  leaves 
a  vacancy  that  will  be  deeply  realized  by  the  mem- 


HATTIE     E.     ROBERTS    of    Ferndale,

bers  of  the  Order  throughout  the  State;  Resolved, 
That  we  extend  to  her  the  most  sincere  and  heart- 
felt wishes  of  every  member  of  the  Parlor  for  suc- 
cess  in   all   uer   future   undertakings   and   her  com-

who  takes  a  great  deal  of  interest  in  the  proper  ex- 
emplification of  the  ritual,  is  giving  the  contest 
committee  his  assistance.  On  July  23rd  he  attended 
a  joint  meeting  here  of  all  contesting  Parlors,  and 
gave  the  officers  pointers  that  will  materially  aid 
them   in   their  work. 


Secure  Valuable  Records. 
San  Francisco — The  delegates  from  Army  and 
Navy  Parlor,  No.  207,  secured  a  diary  of  valuable 
records,  while  attending  the  Santa  Cruz  Grand  Par- 
lor. The  book,  in  a  remarkable  state  of  preserva- 
tion, was  presented  through  E.  V.  Moody  of  Santa 
Cruz,  who  was  a  charter  member  of  Army  and  Navy 
Parlor.  The  diary  was  started  by  Colonel  William 
Lindley,  Moody's  grandfather,  and  the  first  entry 
records  the  fact  that  the  family  had  set  forth  from 
Henderson  County,  Illinois,  for  California,  on  April 
25,  1845.  Travel  was  made  very  cautiously  at  the 
outset,  although  it  is  stated  that  eighteen  miles 
were  covered  the  first  day.  At  the  beginning  of 
the  long  trek  the  party,  comprising  about  thirty 
persons,  observed  the  Sabbath  by  pitching  camp 
and  devoting  themselves  to  a  form  of  religious 
service,  but  as  the  long  journey  continued,  little 
attention  was  paid  to  Sundays  and  some  record 
marches  are  entered  in  the  same  bold  hand  that 
wrote  the  earlier  passages.  In  May,  1S47,  the  party 
reached  Oregon  City,  and  with  a  Western  abandon. 
Colonel  Lindley  purchased  a  silk  handkerchief  for 
two  dollars.  The  trip  along  the  Snake  River  is 
then  described,  and  appended  is  a  list  of  the  names 
of  the  party.  This  is  the  only  portion  of  the  book 
written  in  ink,  the  remainder  being  in  pencil,  but 
very  clear.  The  diary  will  be  inscribed  properly 
and  placed  among  the  records  of  the  Native  Sons, 
one  of  the  purposes  of  which  is  the  preservation 
of  landmarks  and  records  of  the  State's  early  his- 
tory. It  is  a  remarkable  coincidence  that  Army 
and  Navy  Parlor,  which  was  organized  by  the  na- 
tive-born Calif ornians  who  left  home  and  country 
to  participate  in  the  late  Spanish- American  war, 
should  have  as  a  charter  member  a  lineal  descend- 
ant of  one  of  out  noble,  unselfish  and  patriotic 
Pioneers.  It  was  with  great  pleasure  and  Califor- 
nia loyalty  that  E.  V.  Moody,  a  charter  member 
of  the  Parlor,  presented  these  reeords  to  delegates 
John  M.  Glennan  and  John  J.  Morgan  who,  in  turn, 
delivered  this  Pioneer  history  to  Daniel  Q.  Troy, 
the  recently-appointed  Historiographer  of  the  Order. 


Fourteen- Year   Secretary  Retires. 
Vallejo — The     newly-elected     officers     of     Vallejo 
Parlor.   No.    77.   were  installed,  July  11th,  by  J.  J. 
McCarron,  D.D.G.P.,   of  Suisun,  Werner  Hallin  be- 
coming president  of  the  Parlor.     Thomas  J.  O'Hara^ 


Cruz  mountain  home  of  H.  A.  Gabriel,  at  Eva  Vista, 
about  100  members,  with  their  wives  and  sweet- 
hearts, enjoying  the  delightful  day  at  games,  races 
and  aquatic  sports.  Louis  Doerr  had  charge  of  the 
sports,  and  the  winners  in  the  several  events  were 
awarded  handsome  prizes.  One  of  the  most  in- 
teresting sporting  features  was  a  tug-of-war  be- 
tween the  married  men  and  women  and  the  bache 
lors  and  spinsters,  which  was  easily  won  by  the  for- 
mer combination.  At  noon,  all  enjoyed  a  delight- 
ful barbecue. 


Gives  Ladies'  Night. 
San  Francisco — Russian  Hill  Parlor,  No.  229,  en- 
tertained at  a  ladies '  night.  July  25th,  at  which 
dancing  and  an  attractive  program  were  provided. 
The  Parlor  has  changed  its  meeting  night  to  Tues- 
day, at  Franklin  Hall,  1S81  Fillmore  street,  where 
visiting  brothers  are  always  welcome.  At  the  re- 
cent election  of  officers,  W.  J.  Cline  was  chosen 
president,   and    F.    C.    Cornyer,    recording   secretary.

ceremony,  an   elaborate  banquet   was  served. 


Joint  Celebration  Planned. 
Fresno — When  the  Grand  Parlor  meets  here  next 
April,  it  is  planned  by  Fresno  Parlor,  No.  25,  to 
join  the  festivities  incident  thereto,  with  the  mer- 
chants' Raisin  Day  celebration,  for  which  this  city 
has  become  world  famous.  Several  members  of  the 
Chamber  of  Commerce  attended  the  Parlor's  last 
meeting,  and  pledged,  moral  and  financial  support 
to  making  the  combined  celebrations  the  greatest 
in   this   city's  history.

Annual   Outing   Enjoyed. 
San  Jose — The  annual  outing  of  Observatory  Par- 
lor, No.  177,  this  year,  was  in  the  nature  of  a  family 
picnic   and   barbecue,    and    was   held    at    the    Santa 


Pioneers  Guests  of  Natives. 

Grass  Valley — Under  the  pine  trees  of  Olympia 
Park,  June  29th,  the  members  of  Quartz  Parlor,  No. 
58,  N.S.G.W.,  and  Manzanita  Parlor,  No.  29,  N.D.G. 
W.,  entertained  the  Pioneers  in  a  royal  way.  Trans- 
portation facilities  were  provided  to  convey  the 
guests  to  the  picnic  grounds,  and  shortly  after  their 
arrival  there,  the  Native  Daughters  rendered  an  im- 
promptu program,  as  follows:  Instrumental  solo, 
Mrs.  George  Radeliffe;  recitation,  "The  Pioneer," 
Mrs.  Nellie  Morris;  address,  Mrs.  Alison  Watt.  Mrs. 
Angeline  Griffin  Gardner,  president  of  the  San  Fran- 
cisco Women's  Pioneer  Association,  who  for  many 
years  resided  in  Nevada  County,  delivered  an  in- 
teresting address  dealing  with  local  pioneer  history. 
All  present  then  formed  in  line  and  proceeded  to 
that  section  of  the  park  set  aside  for  refreshments, 
where  an  excellent  camp  stew,  prepared  by  Ed  Mor- 
gan and  Fred  Frank,  was  enjoyed. 

Following  due  justice  to  the  edibles,  F.  M.  Miller 
delivered  brief  but  happy  words  of  greeting.  He 
said  that,  born  of  Pioneer  parents,  nurtured  in  a 
Pioneer  home,  warmed  at  a  Pioneer  fireside,  he  had 
from  youth  heard  the  stories  of  the  hardships  en- 


CALISTOGA  PARLOR'S  FLOAT  IN  FOURTH  OF  JULY  PARADE. 

In  the  Independence  Day  parade  in  Calistoga,  Calistoga  Parlor,  No.  86,  entered  a  float,  as  pictured 
above,  which  won  the  first  prize  for  the  best  float  in  line.  The  team  hauling  the  float  was  driven  by 
E.  W.  Rose  of  Lower  Lake  Parlor,  No.  159.  The  exhibit  depicted  an  ox-team  crossing  the  plains  in  the 
early  days,  and  was  received  with  great  applause  along  the  line  of  march.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


August,   191 1 


UGUST,  AND  HARVEST  TIME, 
when  most  of  the  ripe  fruit  and 
golden  grains  are  garnered!  Many 
toothsome  dainties  for  the  winter 
months  are  evolved  from  our  choice 
fruits  and  nuts,  to  keep  us  in  humor, 
as  well  as  the  small  lad  or  lassie 
whose  pilgrimages  to  the  fruit  cellar 
are  generally  conducted  when  mother 
is  called  out  to  see  a  sick  friend,  or 
for  any  other  excuse.  The  golden 
grain  always  suggests  something  de- 
lightful, such  as  those  "Harvest  Home"  parties 
and  informal  dances,  where  some  large  barn  is 
decorated  with  great  bunches  of  the  tasseled  corn- 
stalks, masses  of  all  kinds  of  grain,  with  golden 
pumpkins  made  into  " jack 'o 'lanterns"  and  strung 
on  ropes  in  festoons.  Flags,  too,  crossed  above 
the  pumpkin  lanterns,  make  it  seem  more  pat- 
riotic. To  those  city-tired  folks  who  long  for  a 
change,  or  get  the  wanderlust  fever,  it  is  sug- 
gested that  will  not  have  to  go  far  if  they  wish 
for   something   novel   and   fantastic. 

A  more  complete  description  of  such  a  party 
may  enable  some  of  the  venturesome  and  wide- 
awake youths  to  entertain  their  city  friends  in  a 
way  that  will  be  a  gladsome  surprise,  and  one 
that  they  could  duplicate  in  their  own  homes. 
Where   one   has   a  large  barn,   with   a   loft   at   one

end,  the  possibilities  are  unlimited.  At  each  cor- 
ner, and  at  intervals  around  the  sides,  nail  up 
great  sheaves  of  ripe  grain,  cornstalks  and  bunches 
of  golden  corn,  tied  with  long  streamers  of  green 
and  yellow  ribbon.  Large  and  small  pumpkins, 
hollowed  and  fashioned  into  unique  shapes,  with 
eandles  inside,  should  be  placed  everywhere  a 
glimmer  of  light  is  wanted  or  needed.  Green  anu 
yellow  bunting  are  not  out  of  place  to  use  in 
draping  the  ratters,  providing  there  is  plenty  of  the 
golden  grain  and  corn  interwoven.  Such  decora- 
tions tend  to  intensify  the  love  for  nature,  while 
plenty  at'  Sags,  both  large  and  small,  strengthen 
our  patriotism.  Such  a  party  may  also  be  made  of 
a  character-costume  nature,  with  most  of  the  women 
gowned  as  old  colonial  dames,  or  "Mother  Goose" 
characters.     "Uncle  Sam"  should  be  impersonated 


by  some  youth  of  humorous  turn  of  mind,  and 
army  officers  of  the  Revolutionary  period  may  be 
represented  by  others,  to  mate  with  the  colonial 
dames.  In  regard  to  refreshments,  long  boards 
stretched  across  "saw-horses" — providing  they  can 
be  made  secure  against  tumbling  from  the  on- 
slaught of  the  "army"  of  hungry  guests — and 
covered  with  red-white-and-blue  bunting,  are  very 
effective  as  a  setting  for  the  many  and  various 
toothsome  dishes  of  food. 

A  "Harvest  King  and  Queen,"  gowned  for  the 
occasion,  are  other  unique  features,  and  if  properly 
chosen,  will  create  worlds  of  fun.  Favors  may  be 
placed  at  each  plate,  sueh  as  tickets  with  corres- 
ponding numbers  for  the  men  and  women,  and 
cause  much  fun  in  selecting  partners  for  the  sup- 
per, and  generally  turn  out  to  be  decidedly 
ludricious,  as  the  characters  are  nearly  always 
mixed  with  laughable  results.  Everything  on  the 
festive  board  should  be  suggestive  of  the  harvest- 
time,  such  as  pumpkin  pie,  ripe  fruit,  salads  made 
from  anything  grown  at  this  time,  and  countless 
other  dishes  the  good  taste  of  the  hostess  will 
provide.  If  a  "Harvest  King  and  Queen"  are 
chosen,  the  ceremony  of  "crowning"  them  should 
be  just  before  the  grand  march,  which  must  be 
led  by  them.  This  feature  may  be  particularly 
acceptable  to  some  at  this  date,  suggesting  the 
recent  event  across  the  sea.  As  for  music,  nothing 
but  stringed  instruments  are  used. 

These  costume  parties  are  novel  and  chic,  with 
the  vari-colored  dresses,  but  filmy  frocks,  that  are 
easily  laundered,  are  also  correct  for  the  occasion, 
if  one  prefers  them.  City  or  eountry,  Dame 
Fashion  has  her  devotees  galore,  and  for  ordinary 
wear,   or   for   more   elaborate 

Evening  and  Afternoon  Gowns 
we  still  find  voile  and  marquisette  in  the  lead. 
The  round  length  is  better  form  for  summer  than 
those  sweeping  skirts  that  take  one's  time  and 
patience  to  manage  properly.  Either  square  or 
round  Dutch  necks  are  also  much  daintier  and 
cooler  these  August  days.  A  white  marquisette 
with  a  coral  marquisette  band  around  the  bottom 
of  the  skirt,  and  the  coral  marquisette  extending 
down  onto  the  shoulders  and  short  kimono  sleeves, 
makes  a  nifty  gown.  Coral  messaline  is  used  for 
the  folded  girdle  and  long  sash  ends.  These  sash 
ends  are  pretty,  finished  with  silk  fringe  or  balls. 
The  side  front,  or  side  back,  is  where  a  dress 
should  close,  so  that  either  may  be  finished  with 
the  sash  ends,  which  may  hang  nearly  to  the  bottom 
of  the  skirt. 

Scroll  work  in  either  embroidery  or  the  round 
military  cord  now  used  so  much,  is  another  effective 
way  of  trimming  these  sheer  materials.  Say,  for 
instance,  that  a  white  voile  has  this  dainty  scroll 
work  in  heavy  raised  embroidery  around  the  skirt, 
with  Irish  lace  inserted  above  it,  or  if  desired, 
the  Irish  lace  could  be  inserted  just  above  the 
hem,  then  a  wide  design  in  scroll  embroidery,  with 
another  wide  band  of  the  Irish  lace.  The  skirt 
should  either  be  set  into  the  waist  with  tiny  pin- 
tucks,  or  gathered  into  it.  One  such  gown  I  saw 
had  the  entire  waist  and  sleeves  of  scroll  work, 
with  the  Irish  lace  edging  the  low  round  neck  and 
short  kimono  sleeves.  Another  gown  of  sheer  silk 
mull,  in  pastel  blue,  was  hand  embroidered  in 
colors.  A  broad  band  of  colored  silk  embroidery 
finished  the  skirt  about  ten  inches  from  the  bot- 
"tom,  while  the  square  neck  had  a  two-inch  em- 
broidered band  around  it.  The  sleeves  may  have 
just  the  band  or  cuff  of  this  colored  embroidery, 
or  the  band  extending  down  over  the  shoulders  and 
tops  to  the  lower  edge.  In  regard  to  colors,  they 
should  be  chosen  to  harmonize  with  the  color  of 
the  gown.  Most  any  dainty  color,  and  white,  are 
used  for  such  models.  Black  is  very  neat,  em- 
broidered on  white. 

Another  gpwn,  strongly  suggestive  of  the  Orient, 
was  a  Persian  cloth-of-gold,  with  red  gleaming 
through  it  for  the  underdress,  and  a  tunic  of  white 
in  eyelet  embroidery.  The  under  gown  was  finished 
with  a  gold  fringe,  about  three  inches  wide,  that 
fell  to  the  bottom  of  the  skirt.  The  tunic  came 
just  to  the  top  of  this  fringe.  Gold-colored  messa- 
line formed  the  folded  girdle  and  long  ends,  which 
were  edged  with  the  gold  fringe.  Tiny  tassels  of 
gilt  were  fastened  in  irregular  lines  across  the 
waist,  and  a  few  on  the  top  of  the  short  sleeves. 
A  tiny  piping  of  golden  silk  edged  the  low  neck  and 
sleeves.  This  gown  would  be  exceedingly  appro- 
priate for  some  swell  military  ball,  where  gold 
cord  and  gilt  buttons  predominate. 


A  blue  and  white  tiny  check  design,  in  marquis- 
ette or  voile,  with  a  wide  blue  band  of  the  same 
material  around  the  bottom  of  the  skirt,  as  well 
as  for  the  girdle  and  yoke,  and  a  wide  band  or 
cuff  on  the  sleeves,  is  a  dainty  and  most  uncommon 
frock.  The  combinations  are  so  varied,  not  only  in 
colors  but  also  materials,  that  one  may  almost  use 
her  own  taste,  knowing  it  will  doubtless  find  favor. 
If  a  trifle  loud  or  unusual,  it  might  be  proclaimed 
"the  latest  idea  from  Gay  Paree,"  and  would  no 
doubt  meet  with  instant  favor.  Now,  just  a  word 
as  to  the 

Coming  Styles  and  Modes. 

"We  have,  so  far,  received  but  few  ideas  in  that 
line  from  the  fashion  centers,  but  still  we  have  it 
from  good  authority  that  at  last  the  skirts  are  going

to  widen  out  just  a  little.  It  will  be  correct 
for  them  to  be  from  two  and  one-half  yards  to 
three  yards  in  width  this  fall,  and  many  beautiful 
new  weaves  are  not  only  here  now,  but  are  on  the 
way.  Those  now  autumn  shades  in  home-spuns, 
hop-sackings,  Scotch  tweeds  and  serges  are' some- 
thing  like    a   beautiful    dream    realized. 

Those  who  have  been  East  or  North  far  enough 
in  the  autumn  months  to  catch  the  colors  "King 
Frost"  paints  on  the  leaves — where  the  green  and 
gold  are  intermixed  with  the  red  in  its  many  fas- 
cinating  shades,  each  vying  with  the  other  to  bring 
out  hidden  glories  and  beauties — will  the  more 
readily  appreciate  the  wonderful  mixtures  of  our 
early  fall  or  late  summer  importations,  while  a 
casual  observer,  perhaps,  might  not  get  all  the 
beauties  at  the  first  or  second  glance.  It  seems 
as  if  there  is  always  something,  or  some  beauty, 
we  are  missing,  unless  we  keep  our  eyes  open.  Gray 
is  another  possibility  for  beauty  that  is  almost 
unequaled,  and  the  warm,  soft  shades,  though  of 
extremely  light  material,  go  so  nicely  with  different 
shades  of  pearl-lavender,  the  blue  grays  and  the 
green  grarys.  That  delightful  gray  family  is  cer- 
tainly fascinating  and  enjoyable  in  its  many  moods 
and  modes.

We  also  have  what  seamen  call  the  "green  blue," 
when  the  ocean  takes  mi  its  many  and  varying 
shades  according  to  the  time  of  day— or  the  lati- 
tude  in  which  it  is  seen.  Our  modern  color-makers 
must  needs  hunt  the  world  over  for  some  new  and 
fetching  shade  that  may  please  nuladi  and  the 
young  buds  under  her  ehaperonage,  as  our  advanced 
tastes  call  for  an  ever-changing  effect  on  the  curtain 
of  life.  To  some,  these  come  with  solicitation. 
The  black  and  white  effects,  where  enough  of  the 
white  shows  to  give  the  appearance  of  gray,  is 
another  delightful  mixture.  There  is  an  entirely 
new  weave  called  the  gray  and  lavender  nub 
Scotch.  Instead  of  being  smooth,  little  nubs  are 
Scattered  over  the  surface,  or  rather  woven  into 
it.  which  most  every  one  admires,  and  would  like 
at  least  one  suit  made  from  it  for  fall.  There  is 
a   new   and    enic 

Two-piece  Back  Coat, 
Just    a   little   longer     and     closer     than     heretofore, 
that     will    very    soon    make    its    advent    among    us. 
One  seam   in  the  middle  back,  one  under  each  arm, 
and     the     front     forms,     will     constitute     this     new 

i lei.     And  now  comes  a  new  fad  from  across  the 

sea.  which  all  our  Eastern  damsels  are  aping  who 
frequent  the  water  resorts  and  small  country  week- 
end parties,  though  it  might  just  as  well  have 
remained  where  it  started  from,  as  far  as  the  utility 
of    it    goes. 

It  is  the  large  straw  muff,  which  is  worn  with 
the  sheerest  of  lingerie  gowns.  It  must  match  the 
hat.  and  may  be  an  elaborate  affair  of  straw  and 
Lace  and  flowers.  Like  the  parasol,  it  is  carried 
for  the  delightful  possibilities  of  posing.  Those 
large  summer  hats  in  Sumatra  braid,  which  is  akin 
to  Panama  in  appearance  but  Dot  in  cost,  are  natty 
as  well  as  deliciously  cool  and  fragrant  for  a  large 
hat.

W.  Ford  Thomas,  a  pioneer  attorney,  died  re- 
eently  in  San  Francisco.  He  came  to  California  in 
1 850  and  engaged  in  mining  in  Sierra  County, 
where  he  was  elected  Clerk  and  Recorder  in  185S. 
Fur  many  years  he  had  resided  in  San  Francisco,

tion until  1S60.  In  February,  1865,  Mrs.  Williams 
became  the  keeper,  and  from  then  until  1905,  when 
she  was  badly  injured  by  slipping  and  falling  down

came  to  California  from  England,  his  birthplace,

and  early  in  1849  resigned  from  the  West  Point 
ivulitary  Academy  to  go  to  the  California  gold 
mines.  For  many  years  he  followed  mining,  but 
later  identified  himself  with  the  newspaper  world. 
During  his  life,  deceased  had  written  many  books 
concerning  the  early  history  of  California  and 
Nevada,  with  which  he  was  thoroughly  familiar.

Mrs.  Sarah  E.  Tarwater,  who  came  across  the 
plains  in  an  ox-team  from  Missouri  in  1849,  passed 
away  at  Forestville,  Sonoma  County,  July  11th, 
aged  68  years.  Deceased  is  survived  by  six  child- 
ren, and  had  resided  in  Sonoma  County  practically 
ever  since  her  arrival  there. 

John  Holder,  who  came  to  Placer  County  in  1849, 
died  July  10th,  at  Penryn,  in  which  vicinity  his 
more  than  sixty  years  in  California  had  been  spent. 
Deceased  was  a  native  of  North  Carolina,  and  is 
survived  by  a  wTidow  and  two  children. 

Mrs.  Matilda  E.  Thompson,  who  died  recently  in

Late  in  September  of  the  same  year,  she  arrived 
at  Morris '  Ravine,  Butte  County,  California,  and 
remained  there  until  1854.  She  then  came  to  Dry- 
town,  Amador  County,  going  from  there  to  Shen- 
andoah Valley,  in  the  same  county,  where  she  re- 
mained permanently,  except  on  occasions  when  she 
was  visiting  some  of  her  children.  Deceased  was 
married  in  1S56  to  Columbus  C.  Forbes,  and  of  this 
union,  twelve  children  were  born,  nine  of  whom  are 
living  and  residing  in  California.  There  are  also 
left  to  mourn  her  passing,  one  brother  and  two  sis-

tackle.  So  many  opportunities  exist  today,  which 
were  unheard  of  in  the  early  days  of  this  great 
totate  when  the  Pioneers  were  making  history  by 
i^e  trials  and  hardships  endured  in  the  strenuous 
search  for  gold,  that  to  offer  them  in  contrast  would 
throw  those  of  the  early  days  so  far  in  the  shade 
that  it  would  be  almost  impossible  to  find  them. 

*  J^or  instance,  electricity  was  practically  un- 
known, railroading  was  just  becoming  an  interesting 
factor  in  the  Eastern  states,  and  the  telegraph  was 
just  coming  into  practical  use.  Automobiles  and 
airships  were  only  in  the  minds  of  dreamers,  yet 
today  we  are  confronted  with  the  real  articles 
which,  in  their  prospective  lines,  afford  opportuni- 
ties greater  than  anything  heretofore.  The  fields  of 
agriculture  and  horticulture  present  opportunities 
little  dreamed  of  in  the  early  days.  The  scientific 
farmer,  statistics  show,  is  taking  the  place  of  the 
old  plodding  type,  for  through  expert  knowl- 
edge gained  in  the  great  colleges  of  the  present  day 
he  is  enabled  to  analyze  the  soil,  the  seed,  and  all 
things  therein  contained,  bringing  to  it  the  greatest 
degree  of  efficiency,  wherein  those  soils  and  shrubs 
and  trees  are  made  to  produce  in  great  abundance 
where  the  men  of  early  days  had  grown  discouraged 
and  had  given  up  that  to  which  they  had  devoted 
years  of  hard  labor,  because  they  had  not  the  oppor- 
tunities which  are  afforded  at  the  present  day. 

"Business,  manufacturing,  oil,  real  estate,  ship- 
ping, fruit-packing  and  canning,  government,  etc., 
are  other  fields  for  aetion.  In  fact,  opportunities 
for  success  today  are  of  so  great  a  number  that  we 
may  enter  any  of  them  and  achieve  that  which  the 
young  men  of  early  days  had  no  conception  of 
whatever,  and  we  believe  that,  today,  more  men 
are  accumulating  money,  greater  in  proportion  than 
in  the  early  days. 

"The  effect  of  these  things  may  be  seen  at  our 
very  doors.  Eight  here  in  Nevada  City  we  would 
call  your  attention  to  the  difference,  if  you  can 
imagine  the  same,  between  the  way  people  lived, 
and  had  to  live,  in  the  days  of  the  Pioneers,  or  in 
the  early  fifties  and  sixties,  and  the  present  time. 
Compare  the  homes,  the  mode  of  living,  the  ad- 
vantages of  the  social  and  home  life  of  those  times 
and  the  present  day,  and  the  conclusion  can  be 
easily  arrived  at,  that  the  man  of  moderate  means 
today  is  living  better  than  the  rich  man  of  early 
days.  The  average  man  today  is  living  in  luxury, 
compared  with  the  way  people  lived  in  the  early 
days. 

"These  things  and  many  others  go  to  show  that, 
to  deny  that  the  opportunities  of  today  are  less 
than  those  of  the  early  days,  would  give  to  the 
world  the  startling  fact  that  we  had  not  made  any 
progress  since  that  time— that  we  had  taken  no 
advantage  of  the  many  opportunities  which  sur- 
round us  and  are  entering  our  midst  every  day.  One 
of  the  rarest  opportunities  of  the  early  days  was 
that  of  acquiring  an  education,  yet  today  we  see  the 
great  universities,  schools  and  colleges  built  and 
equipped  to  give  the  young  men  of  today  the  oppor- 
tunity to  acquire  those  things  by  which  he  can 
enter  the  great  avenues  of  industry  and  achieve  sue-

in   his    i  ■  e:irch    for   gold    Lived    in   the   most

of  bacon  and  bread,  and  his  beans  and  bread  for

foundation  for  the  opportunities  which  were  to 
give  you — at  your  breakfast  and  dinner — the  best 
that  the   farm   and    garden   and   store   can   produce. 

"Opportunity  is  the  chance  of  success,  and  the 
filling  of  life's  desires  comes  from  the  ability  of 
grasping  the  opportunities  as  they  present  them- 
selves, and  of  the  great  comfort  derived  from  the 
attainment  thereof.  The  young  man  of  today  is 
weak  and  foolish  if  he  lies  back  and  laments  the 
"Good  old  times,''  for  they  were  not  what  they 
are  supposed  to  have  been.  The  present  and  future 
are  limitless  in  their  possibilities.  Let  him  get 
into  action. 

1 '  Brothers,  when  you  decide  to  look  for  better 
opportunities,  first  look  and  see  what  is  in  you. 
Before  you  ask  the  world  to  give  you  a  chance, 
give  your  own  mind  a  chance.  There  is  not  one 
mind  in  a  thousand  that  has  ever  had  a  fair  chance. 
Give  yours  a  fair  chance,  and  you  will  discover 
a  score  of  opportunities  within  yourself  which, 
when  compared  with  those  that  are  external,  must 
take  second  place.  What  can  I  do  with  myself, 
with  my  unused  powers,  with  my  undeveloped 
talents?  That  is  the  problem.  And  he  who  solves 
this  problem  for  himself  will  not  only  find  the 
best  opportunities  in  the  external  world,  but  will 
also  gain  the  power  to  take  advantage  of  them  all.'' 


PIONEER  SOCIETY  TO  PRESERVE 

EARLY   STATE    HISTORICAL   SCENES. 

At  the  annual  meeting  of  the  California  Pioneer 
Society  in  San  Francisco,  July  7th,  the  following 
officers  were  elected:  Titus  Hale  of  San  Francisco, 
president;  John  J.  Lermen  of  San  Francisco,  A.  A. 
Louderbaek  of  San  Francisco,  H.  J.  Crumpton  of 
Piedmont,  Benjamin  Shurtleff  of  Napa  and  W.  W. 
Carnron  of  Palo  Alto,  vice-presidents;  Charles  J. 
Deering,  treasurer;  W.  W.  Hobart,  marshal;  John 
M.  Burnett,  James  Hunter,  W.  T.  Fonda,  Johann  A. 
Schmidt,  H.  L.  Van  Winkle,  Robert  R.  Russ,  Frank 
Soule  and  James  K.  Moffitt,  directors. 

Following  the  election,  the  annual  dinner  was 
given  at  the  Hotel  Argonaut,  the  property  of  the 
Society,  where  speeches  were  made  by  the  "Old 
1  Sea  rs  ' '  and  their  '  *  Cubs, ' '  without  a  growl,  and 
neither  had  to  lick  their  paws,  for  all  enjoyed  thein- 
selvea  and  were  satisfied,  and  about  eighty  sat  down 
to  the  tables,  three-fourths  of  whom  were  actual 
Pioneers  of  1849  and  previous  thereto. 

The  walls  of  the  Pioneer  Society  halls,  as  well  as 
of  Hotel  Argonaut;  will  soon  be  ornamented  with 
large  paintings  of  the  taking  possession  of  Califor- 
nia by  the  United  States  Navy  at  Monterey,  San 
Francisco,  Sonoma,  Sutter's  Fort,  San  Jose,  Santa 
Barbara.  Los  Angeles,  San  Diego  and  other  places, 
thus  portraying  the  American  history  of  California, 
too  long  neglected,  of  which  the  Sloat  Monument 
at  Monterey,  built  of  solid  and  beautiful  granite 
with  thirty-two  county  stones  of  the  whole  sixty-six 
in  the  base,  is  the  first  permanent  landmark  of  a 
new  era  of  progress  and  enlightenment,  unshaken  by 
the  giant  tread  of  the  earthquake  and  unconsumed 
by  fire.

Enjoyable  Joint  Installation. 

Wan  Francisco — On  July  17th,  the  joint  public 
installation  of  officers  of  Presidio  Parlor,  No.  148, 
N.D.^.W.,  and  Presidio  Parlor,  No.  194,  N.  S. 
G.  W.,  was  held  in  Steimke  Hall.  For  the  Native 
Daughters  the  installing  officer  was  Miss  Alma 
Reimers,  D.D.G.P.,  of  Orinda  Parlor,  No.  56,  as- 
sisted by  Past  Grand  President  Emma  G.  Foley 
and  Mrs.  Sheehan,  also  of  Orinda  Parlor.  The  offi- 
cers installed  were:  Past  president,  Helen  M. 
McCloskey;  president,  Susie  K.  Finnen;  first  viee- 
president,  Cecelia  Keogan;  second  vice-president, 
Minnie  Seebach;  third  vice-president,  Agnes  K. 
Cooper;  recording  secretary,  Annie  C.  Henly;  finan- 
cial secretary,  Agnes  Dougherty;  treasurer,  Minnie 
Binfeind;  marshal,  Anita  Musso;  trustees — Essie 
G.  Free,  Claire  S.  Clark,  Emma  Kaiser;  organist, 
Edith  Belden;  physicians,  E.  C.  Lafontaine,  M.  Ber- 
tola;  outside  sentinel,  Emma  Miller;  inside  sentinel, 
Mae  Kane.  The  D.D.G.P.  presented  past  presi- 
dent Helen  M.  McCloskey  with  a  beautiful  ring, 
the  gift  of  the  Parlor. 

The  installing  officer  for  the  Native  Sons  was 
D.D.G.P.,  F.  W.  Cutter,  of  Golden  Gate  Parlor,  the 
officers  installed  being:  Past  president,  Jas.  Mc-

marshal,  Dennis  Brosnan;  inside  sentinel,  A.  Musso; 
outside  sentinel,  Thos.  Lyons;  trustee,  Ernest 
Martens.  The  past  president  was  presented  with 
a  handsome  badge,  the  gift  of  the  Porlor,  which 
was  graciously  accepted.  After  installation,  re- 
freshments were  served,  dancing  was  indulged  in, 
and  every  one  voted  the  installation  a  very  happy 
success. 


The  only  increase  in  area  is  in  California,  in 
which  two  small  additions,  involving  a  total  of  a 
little  over  17,000  acres,  are  made;  while  on  the  other 
hand,  the  proclamations  eliminate  a  total  of  nearly 
242,000  acres,  85,000  acres  of  which  are  in  this 
State.  Thus  the  rearrangement,  which  puts  twenty- 
six  National  Forests  in  place  of  seventeen,  is  ac- 
companied by  a  net  reduction  in  area  of  225,000 
acres.  It  is  explained  by  officials  of  the  United 
States  Department  of  Agriculture  that  last  sum- 
mer's fire  experience  in  the  Northwest  made  it  clear 
that  many  of  the  forest  supervisors  were  in  charge 
of  units  which  were  too  large  for  efficient  adminis- 
tration. The  changes  are  a  part  of  a  general  move- 
ment to  develop,  with  the  aid  of  last  year's  expe- 
rience, the  most  efficient  system  of  fire  protection 
possible  at  the  present  time. 

In  California,  changes  were  made  affecting  the 
Klamath  National  Forest,  as  follows:  A  total  ad- 
dition to  the  Klamath  of  3,480  acres  of  forest  land; 
an  elimination  of  85,000  acres  in  various  small 
tracts  consisting  principally  of  alienated  lands  ly- 
ing along  the  eastern  border  of  the  forest;  two 
small  transfers  from  the  Siskiyou  and  the  Crater 
Forests  to  the  Klamath;  and  a  transfer  of  352,000 
acres  of  land  from  the  Klamath  to  the  Siskiyou,  em- 
bracing all  of  the  Smith  River  drainage  lying  with- 
in the  forest.  In  connection  with  the  latter  trans- 
fer, 13,755  acres  of  valuable  timber  land  located 
within  the  State  of  California  were  added  to  the 
Siskiyou  National  Forest. 


STATE'S   NATIONAL  FORESTS   RE- 
ARRANGED   TO    PREVENT  FIRES. 

A  number  of  changes  in  the  National  Forests  of 
California,  Oregon,  Idaho,  and  Wyoming,  made  in 
the  interest  of  more  convenient  and  economical  ad- 
ministration and  especially  of  better  protection 
against  fire,  have  just  been  announced.  These 
changes  have  been  accomplished  by  President  Taft 
through  a  series  of  proclamations  signed  at  differ- 
ent times  in  June,  but  all  becoming  effective  July 
1st.  The  proclamations  were  drawn  so  as  to  dove- 
tail into  one  another,  with  the  result  that,  taken  all 
together,  they  substitute  twenty-six  National  For- 
ests for  a  former  seventeen.

Lincoln — At  the  regular  meeting  of  Silver  Star 
Parlor,  No.  63,  N.S.G.W.,  July  ISth,  the  following

president,  Edward  H.  Sanderson;  second  vice-presi- 
dent, Chas.  H.  Murch;  third  vice-president,  Geo. 
B.  Heryford;  recording  secretary,  Robert  P.  Dixon; 
financial  secretary,  Thomas  H.  McKenna;  treasurer, 
L.  E.  Brown;  marshal,  Geo.  S.  Wallace;  inside  senti- 
nel, Peter  Crogh;  outside  sentinel,  Albert  G.  Gate; 
trustee,  Frank  A.  Dillian.  After  installation,  a 
social  hour  was  enjoyed,  and  ice  cream  was  served. 


Stockton  at  Santa  Rosa. 
Stockton— Stockton  Parlor,  No.  7,  N.S.G.W.,  has 
come  out  early,  and  announced  that  it  wants,  and 
intends  to  get,  the  Admission  Day  celebration  for 
this  city  in  1912.  To  help  Santa  Rosa  celebrate,  and 
at  the  same  time  do  a  little  missionary  work  for 
their  own  city,  the  Parlor  members  have  decided 
to  join  in  the  "City  of  Roses"  festivities  this  year, 
and  will  be  there  in  their  usual  large  numbers  and 
with  an  attractive  display. 


RIVERSIDE  PARLOR'S  FINE  SHOWING  IN  JULY  FOURTH  PARADE. 

Riverside  Parlor,  No.  251,  N.S.G.W.,  helped  to  make  the  recent  Fourth  of  July  celebration  in  River- 
side the  great  success  that  it  was,  by  entering  an  automobile  float,  pictured  above,  in  the  parade.  Sit- 
ting in  the  machine  are  the  members  of  Riverside  Parlor's  Glee  Club,  attired  in  outing  costumes.  They 
are  (reading  from  left  to  right):  Front  seat — W.  W.  Gamble,  H.  H.  Grundstrum;  back  seat — A.  R.  Gam- 
ble, E.  H.  Pratt,  Leo  Difani.  This  was  the  first  Fourth  of  July  parade  held  in  Riverside  in  sixteen  years, 
and  many  Eastern  people  who  have  settled  thereabouts  in  the  interim  had  never  heard  of  the  Native  Sons, 
and  did  not  know  what  the  Order  stands  for.  But  they  know  now,  and  so  well  did  Riverside  Parlor  carry 
out  its  part  in  the  general  celebration,  that  the  float  and  the  singers  were  enthusiastically  cheered  along  the 
entire  line  of  march.

iEPTEMBER,  1911 


!o.  5;  Whole  No.  S3 


VOLUME  BEGAN  WITH  MAY  NUMBER;  ENDS  WITH  OCTOBER  NUMBER. 


T  WAS  IN  THE  BUNK-HOUSE  OF 
an  extensive  cattle-ranch  in  the 
state  of  Nevada.  The  vaqueros  had 
finished  their  day's  work,  and  after 
supper  had  retired  to  the  bunk 
house  to  smoke,  swap  yarns,  play 
cards  and  drink  whiskey  during  the 
evening.  While  they  were  in  the 
midst  of  their  hilarity,  a  knock  was 
heard  at  the  door,  and  upon  a  shout 
from  the  foreman  to  come  in,  the 
door  was  opened  hesitatingly  and  a 
woebegone  individual  presented  himself  to  the  gaze 
of  the  jolly  cow-boys.  The  night  was  rather  cold, 
and  one  of  the  vaqueros,  in  a  somewhat  unpleasant 
tone,  shouted,  "Come  in!     Shut  the  door!" 

The  stranger  hesitatingly  entered  the  room, 
closed  the  door,  and  stood  looking  about  him  with 
an   appearance   of  embarrassment. 

"Have  a  drink,"  shouted  one  of  the  cow-boys. 
"Got  some  good  whiskey  here,  but  the  boys  used 
it  nearly  all  up  to  brand  cattle  with.  You  see,  we 
take  a  little  brush  and  dip  it  in  our  whiskey  flask, 
mark  out  the  brand  on  the  steer,  and  the  next  day 
the  hair  all  comes  off  and  eats  about  half  way 
through  the  hide;  makes  the  prettiest  brand  you 
ever  see." 

This  sally  was  followed  by  a  shout  of  laughter 
from  the  men,  and  the  demijohn  was  immediately 
passed  around,  each  man  branding  himself  on  the 
inside  with  a  eopious  draught  of  whiskey. 

Bill  Diggs,  who  had  thus  described  the  lightning 
qualities  of  the  whiskey,  was  a  tall,  well-built  cow- 
boy and  was  known  as  the  most  dare-devil  rider 
on  the  range.  It  was  said  of  him  that  in  the 
twenty  years  that  he  had  been  a  cow-boy,  he  had 
never  been  thrown  from  any  animal  that  he  had 
attempted  to  ride.  It  had  also  been  told  that  he  had 
once  lassoed  an  elk,  threw  it,  blinded  it,  cinched 
a  saddle  upon  its  back  and  had  ridden  it  until  it 
iell  exhausted.  Bill  Diggs  was  a  kind-hearted,  jolly, 
rollicking,  fun-loving  fellow,  who  could  sing  a  good 
song,  was  something  of  a  ventriloquist,  and  could 
assume  the  brogue  of  an  Irishman  to  perfection. 

When  the  demijohn  was  passed  around,  the 
stranger  refused  to  drink,  giving  as  an  excuse  th.it 
he  had  not  eaten  anything  for  twenty-four  hours, 
and  he  feared  that  the  whiskey  might  have  a  bad 
effect  upon  him  in  such  a  condition.  Upon  this  an- 
nouncement Bill  Diggs  remarked,  "Stranger,  you 
must  be  broke. " 

The  stranger  answered  in  the  affirmative. 
"It's  a  damned  shame,"  shouted  Diggs,  "for  a 
man  to  be  hungry  in  this  country.  You  go  down 
to  the  cook-house,  and  tell  the  Chink  to  get  you  a 
roaring  good  supper.  And  tell  him  that  Bill  Diggs 
said  so." 

Thereupon  the  stranger  departed.  "Hell  of  a 
note,"  observed  one  of  the  cow-boys,  "for  a  man 
to  be  tramping  through  this  country,  hungry." 

"Well,"  said  Diggs,  "sometimes  a  damned  good 
man  gets  broke.     Been  broke  myself  sometimes." 

In  about  half  an  hour  the  stranger  returned  to 
the  cowboys'  bunk-house,  and  Bill  Diggs  generously 
shared  a  bunk  with  him  for  the  night.  The  next 
morning  the  stranger  made  application  for  employ- 
ment, and  Diggs,  who  in  the  absence  of  the  fore- 
man had  the  management  of  the  ranch,  asked  the 
stranger  if  he  was  an  educated  cuss.  Upon  receiv- 
ing an  affirmative  answer,  Diggs  remarked  that  the 


TA

IMG  OF 
HELL

stranger's  advent  was  providential,  for  while  he, 
Diggs,  could  ride  and  shoot  pretty  well,  he  wasn't 
much  of  a  scholar,  and  that,  as  he  had  the  men's 
time  checks  to  make  out,  he  wished  the  stranger 
would  do  it  for  him. 

This  the  stranger  did  in  a  neat  and  clerical  man- 
ner, and  from  that  time  Thomas  Manley  and  Diggs 
■■    g I    friends. 

One  day  Manley  was  asked  by  Diggs  if  he  had 
ever  been  on  a  cattle  ranch  before.  Manley  smiled 
and  said  yes.  Diggs  asked  him  where.  Manley  re- 
plied, "Miller  &  Lux  ranch  in  the  San  Joaquin  Val- 
ley, California.     There  was  where  I  got  hurt." 

He  thereupon  related  to  Diggs  an  account  of  how, 
while  acting  as  a  clerk  on  one  of  Miller  &  Lux's 
ranches,  a  cow-boy  named  Jim  Snaley  had  mounted 
Manley  upon  a  yellow  horse  as  a  joke  and  that  the 
horse  had  thrown  him  aud  injured  him  so  that  he 
was  insensible  for  some  time  and  was  compelled  to 
go  into  the  hospital.  "And  that  is  the  reason," 
said  Manley,  "that  I  came  to  be  without  money." 

Bill  Diggs  remarked  that  "that  was  a  damned 
poor,  worn-out  joke  among  cow-boys,  and  that  any 
man  that  would  play  it  on  any  man  that  weren  't  a 
rider,  ort  to  be  roped  by  the  heels  and  dragged 
through  the  slough. ' ' 

It  was  at  the  close  of  a  sultry  day  in  the  San 
Joaquin  Valley,  in  the  middle  of  May,  that  a  dusty 
tramp  approached  the  ranch-house  situated  upon  one 
of  Miller  &  Lux's  cattle  ranges.  The  tramp  was  an 
unprepossessing  individual.  He  wore  heavy  boots, 
a  flannel  shirt,  coarse  trousers  and  a  slouch  hat. 
His  head  was  shaved  in  a  way  that  would  indicate 
that  he  had  just  served  a  term  in,  or  escaped  from, 
a  state's  prison.  As  lie  approached  the  house,  be- 
fore which  stood  the  major-domo  and  a  group  of 
hired  men,  touching  his  hat  respectfully,  he  asked 
in  a  coarse  Irish  brogue  and  with  a  cringing  man- 
ner, for  something  to  eat  and  a  place  where  he 
could  sleep.  The  major-domo  nodded,  for  it  was 
an  invariable  rule  on  the  Miller  &  Lux  ranches  to 
provide  for  wayfarers,  rather  than  have  them  camp 
by  the  roadside  and  start  fires  which  might  en- 
danger a  vast  amount  of  property  by  conflagra- 
tion. 

The  next  morning  Jim  Snaley  approached  the 
tramp  and  informed  him  that  he  must  do  a  little 
work  to  pay  l\>r_  his  supper  and  breakfast.  This 
I  lie  tramp  readily  consented  to  do.  Snaley  asked 
i  he  tramp  if  he  could  ride.  Thereupon  the  tramp 
told  him  in  his  strong  Irish  brogue  that  he  had  not 
ridden  American  horses,  but  he  was  an  "illigant" 
in  M    he  was  in  the  old  country. 

At  this  Snaley  sent  a  man  to  bring  up  a  horse. 
Now,  there  ,was  at  that  time  a  superb  horse,  eight 
years  old,  running  upon  the  ranch  and  having  his 
freedom  simply  because  it  was  impossible  for  any 
vaquero  to  subdue  him.  From  the  time  he  was  five 
years  old  he  had  thrown  every  cow-boy  that  had 
ever  mounted  him,  and  having  been  given  over  as 
an   incorrigible,   lie   was  used  by  the  cow-boys  as  a 


source  of  amusement,  by  mounting  tramps  upon  him, 
only  to  be  instantly  thrown  from  his  back.  The 
horse  was  called  Blue  Hell.  He  was  a  blue  roan 
with  black  points,  and  would  weigh  about  eleven 
hundred    pounds. 

While  our  Irish  tramp  was  dilating  to  Jim  Sna- 
ley upon  his  wonderful  equestrian  achievements  in 
tin'  "ould  counthry,"  the  men  about  the  ranch  had 
quietly  taken  Blue  Hell,  blinded  him,  saddled  and 
bridled  him,  and  invited  the  tramp  to  come  and 
mount   his  horse. 

No  sooner  did  he  see  the  wild  horse  than  all  of 
his  boasted  equestrian  courage  seemed  to  vanish. 
In  a  trembling  manner,  looking  at  the  old  saddle 
on  Blue  Hell's  back,  he  said,  "Sorr,  I — I  would  be 
afraid  to — to  ride  a  horse  like  that  with  an  ould 
saddle. " 

Now,  it  so  happened  that  Jim  Snaley  possessed 
a  beautiful  silver  mounted  saddle  and  bridle,  which 
he  valued  at  two  hundred  and  fifty  dollars,  he  hav- 
ing won  the  same  at  a  riding  tournament  at  a  state 
fair  the  year  previous.  It  was  in  vain  that  they 
urged  the  tramp  to  mount.  All  of  the  cow-boys' 
Baadles  were  upon  their  horses,  and  they  were 
mounted,  pretending  that  they  were  going  to  start 
for  a  rodeo.  At  last,  as  a  dernier  resort,  Snaley 
brought  out  his  fancy  saddle  and  bridle,  and  as 
Blue  Hell  was  blindfolded,  he  allowed  an  exchange 
of  saddles  and  bridles.  When  this  was  done  the 
tramp  took  his  blanket,  made  a  long  roll  of  it  and 
tied  it  over  the  pommel  of  the  saddle,  remarking 
that  in  the  "ould  counthry"  they  didn't  have  these 
things  on  their  saddles,  indicating  the  pommel. 
When  this  was  done,  the  tramp  still  hesitated  about 
mounting.  Turning  to  Snaley,  he  said,  "  Plaze, 
would  ye  leave  me  the  loan  of  your  spurs,  because 
in  the  ould  counthry  we  always  had  spurs." 

Snaley  ruefully  took  off  the  beautiful  silver  spurs 
and  handed  them  to  the  tramp,  who  started  to  put 
them  on  upside  down,  when  Snaley.  amid  the  hilar- 
ious merriment  of  the  cow  boys,  showed  him  how 
to   put   them   on. 

After  all  this  was  done,  the  tramp  approached 
Snaley  and  said,  ' '  Sorr,  this  looks  to  me  like  a 
vicious  horse,  and  I  'm  afraid  I  '11  get  kilt.  If  I 
should  get  me  neck  broken,  plaze  write  to  me  ould 
mother  in  Ireland,  and  here's  the  address  on  this 
bit  of  paper.     Me  name  is  Seumas  McGinness. " 

Then,  approaching  the  major-domo,  he  raised  his 
hat  and  said,  "Sorr,  I'm  a  thousand  times  obliged 
to  ye  for  kaping  me  the  over-night,  and  if  I  don't 
get  lulled  in  riding  this  horse,  I'll  try  and  repay 
ye  some  way  for  me  entertainment.  But,  Sorr,  I'm 
afraid  this  ride'll  be  me  last.  Me  heart  feels  like 
a  lump  of  ice  between  me  shoulders,  and  last  night 
I  heard  the  wail  of  the  Banshee,  and*  I  saw  the  face 
of  the  Peggy  Ban." 

With  that  the  tramp  approached  the  horse,  placed 
his  hand  on  the  pommel  of  the  saddle,  mounted. 
jerked  up  the  blind  from  the  horse's  eyes,  plunged 
the  spurs  into  his  sides,  aud  the  conflict  was  on. 

The  ranch-house  was  situated  upon  a  vast  plain, 
and  stood  in  the  center  of  a  forty-acre  enclosure. 
Bound  about  the  house  went  the  maddened  animal, 
each  time  making  a  little  larger  circle,  and  as  he 
passed  near  the  amused  spectators,  the  tramp 
would  shout,  "I'm  a-getting  wake,  and  I'm  afraid 
I'll  get  kilt,  but  the  McGinnesses  niver  surrender." 

At  last,  after  five  or  ten  minutes'  gyrations,  the 
horse  headed  for  a  low  place  in  the  fence,  rose  in

fense. Even  Rear  Admiral  Robley 
D.  Evans,  in  a  recent  article,  calls 
attention  to  the  undefended  condi- 
tion of  the  Pacific  ('oast.  It  is  not 
the  intention  of  the  writer  of  this 
article  to  disparage  the  war  depart- 
ment, for  he  believes  the  authorities 
are  doing  their  best  under  the  cir- 
but  he  does  believe  that  the  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West  should  prepare  for  the 
time  when  a  foreign  foe  invades  the  golden  shores 
of  their  native  State.  As  has  been  said,  "In  time 
nf  peace,  prepare  for  war.''  Peace  is  always  de- 
sirable, but  if  history  is  to  be  relied  upon,  the  na- 
tion which  is  best  prepared  to  resist  a  foreign  foe 
is  the  one  that  longest  preserves  its  sacred  insti- 
tutions to  posterity.  America,  speaking  broadly 
of  tlie  northern  half  of  our  continent,  has  been 
at  peace  since  1861)  for  the  slight  embroglio  with 
Spain  could  not  be  termed  a  war — although  it 
taught  us  lessons  in  the  art  of  warfare  that  have 
since   borne  fruit. 

My  object  in  presenting  this  movement  to  the 
Native  Sons  is  not  military,  in  the  accepted  sense 
of  the  term.  1  do  not  wish  to  see  the  fraternal 
bodies  of  the  State  armed  camps,  but  I  do  wish 
them  to  become  sufficiently  drilled  and  able  to  take 
care  of  themselves  in  the  field  as  military  bodies, 
so  that  they  can  aid  their  State  and  country  in 
ease  of  a  foreign  invasion.  My  object  is  not  to 
build  up  a  military  force  for  oppressive  purposes — 
one  that  could  be  used  by  Capital  to  oppress  Labor. 
for  God  knows  we  are  all  laborers  these  days — but 
a  well-drilled  and  disciplined  force  that  will  tend 
to  make  the  Native  Son  a  citizen  soldier  who, 
through  practical  field  work,  is  able  to  take  the 
field   should   occasion   for   such   a   necessity   arise. 

Most  of  the  readers  of  this  article  have 
probably  seen,  or  been  members  of,  military  bod- 
ies. A  military  organization  must  have  practical 
field  service,  to  be  of  any  use  in  time  of  war. 
"Parlor"  soldiers,  while  they  may  drill  with  the 
precision  of  a  well-oiled  machine,  are  utterly  use- 
less when  confronted  with  conditions  similar  to 
actual  warfare.  For  this  reason,  and  for  this 
reason  only,  I  strongly  advocate  the  formation  of 
the  Native  Sons,  as  well  as  other  fraternal  organ- 
izations in  the  State,  into  companies,  battalions 
and  regiments  of  the  California  National  Guard. 
By  becoming  members  of  the  National  Guard  of 
California,  we  would  have  the  backing  of  our 
great  State.  We  would  be  enabled  to  receive  the 
necessary  field  training  in  the  camps  with  the  Reg- 
ulai  Army,  and  would  derive  the  benefit  of  the  ex- 
perience of  the  trained  officers  of  many  years' 
service. 

No  State  in  our  glorious  Union  is  so  thoroughly 
equipped  to  inaugurate  this  idea  as  is  California, 
and  it  should  commend  itself  to  every  young  man 
entitled  to  claim  the  honor  of  having  been  born 
in  California,  and  could  be  safely  emulated  by 
every  state  in  the  Union.  The  organization  of  the 
Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West  was  founded  upon 
patriotism,  and  patriotism  should  be  its  chief  vir- 
tue. The  idea,  if  adopted  by  the  Natve  Sons  and 
other  fraternal  organizations,  will  reflect  great 
credit  upon  them,  assist  materially  in  their  ad- 
vancement, will  aid  in  promoting  those  objects  for 
which  they  are  banded  together,  and  will  be  the 
means  of  uplifting  our  Golden  State,  in  which  we, 
as  native  Americans,  and  loyal  Californians,  take 
great  pride.  By  so  doing,  we  can  show  to  the 
world  that  we  are  real  patriots,  and  that  we  are 
ready  to  maintain  in  high  efficiency  the  sacred  in- 
stitution of  our  beloved  State.  I  believe  that  by 
such  methods  only  can  our  country  be  restored  to 
the  original  idea  of  its  founders — a  Republic  "for 
the  people,"  "of  the  people,"  and  "by  the  peo- 
ple. 

General  Forbes  on  National  Guard. 
i>n  1  he  1  utli  day  of  last  June,  I  communicated 
with  Adjutant- General  E.  A.  Forbes  of  Sacramento 
in  relation  to  the  formation  of  an  army  of  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  and  in  his  reply  on  June 
29th,    In-   --aid:      "The   proposition   affords   food   for 

tl ght      and      consideration.        The      Knights      of 

Pythias  now  have,  they  claim.  60,000  men,  uni- 
formed and  drilled  according  to  T".  S.  Army  reg- 
ulalions.  but  this  organization  could  be  of  value  in 
case  of  war.  as  could  also  a  similar  organization  of 
the  Native  Sons,  only  as  a  lot  of  readily  collected 
recruits    organized      for      instruction.      Of    course, 


these  bodies  would  think  that  they  were  drilled, 
and  would  be  better  drilled  than  farmers  who  had 
never  had  any  drilling,  but  they  would  be  far  from 
soldiers.  They  would  know  how  to  drill  in  a  hall 
and  how  to  march  on  the  street,  but  that  would  be 
about  all.  That  would  have  answered  fifteen  or 
twenty  years  ago,  before  the  coming  of  the  high- 
power  rifle.  Now,  all  is  different.  The  close-order 
drill  and  parade  is  the  most  unimportant  part 
of  the  profession.  It  is  only  valuable  as  a  matter 
of  discipline.  The  field  service  and  the  long-range 
target  practice  with  the  present  military  rifle  are 
now  the  important  factors.  The  National  Guards- 
man nowadays  is  no  longer  the  "tin  soldier,"  for 
play  and  show  drill,  but  the  earnest  patriot  who, 
without   pay,   must   give   much   of   his   time   in    per-

with  a  skillful  enemy  in  time  of  war,  and  for  the

worked  out  by  the  free  use  of  algebra,  geometry 
and  trigonometry,  are  now  part  of  the  important 
duties  of  the  National  Guardsman.  You  will  prob- 
ably be  surprised  to  know  that  during  the  last  two 
months  I  have  sent  nearly  one  hundred  officers  to 
the  border  to  school  in  the  Regular  Army;  fifteen 
officers  to  the  cavalry  and  field  artillery  school  at 
Fort  Riley.  Kansas,  and  four  to  San  Antonio, 
Texas,  to  get  the  technical  instruction  necessary 
to*  make  them  of  any  use  against  a  trained  army 
of  Japan,  or  of  any  other  modern  nation.  You 
will  probably  be  surprised  to  know  tjiat  I  have 
recently  had  quartermaster  officers  at  sea  on  trans- 
ports, learning  ship  transportation;  also,  that  some 
of  the  officers  are  taking  two-year  courses  at  Reg- 
ular Army  garrison  schools,  and  they  are  continu- 
ing right  along  with  classes  filled  with  \v  est  Point- 
ers and  will  graduate  with  honor.     You  will   prob- 


ably be  surprisea  that  in  a  single  company  of  coast 
artillery  in  San  Francisco,  fifty-one  per  cent  of  the 
enlisted  men  are  university  graduates,  and  that 
sixteen  out  of  eighteen  of  the  officers  of  that  corps 
that  I  spoke  to  are  college  graduates  that  can  han-

in  that  branch  of  the  service  with  the  ease  of

National    Guard    Real    Patriotic    Army. 

"It  will  probably  surprise  you  to  know  that 
very,  very  many  of  the  non-commissioned  officers, 
and  many  of  the  privates  of  the  National  Guard 
of  today,  can  teach  the  commissioned  officers  of  as 
late  a  time  as  the  Spanish-American  War,  the  a,  b. 
c  of  soldiering  as  it  is  done  today.  These  men  have 
heard  lecture  upon  lecture  by  military  scientists, 
they  have  gone  into  long  and  weary  camps  of  in- 
struction and  maneuvers  with  the  Regular  troops, 
and  thus  put  the  information  gathered  by  study 
and  lecture  into  practical  effect.  It  will  surprise 
you  to  know  that  the  Naval  Militia  has  licensed 
navigators,  engineers  and  commanders  of  vessels, 
licensed  marine  engineers,  wireless  telegraph 
operators,  electricians,  divers  and  machinists,  and 
that  last  year  they  took  the  cruiser  Marblehead  to 
Bremerton  Navy  Yard,  across  the  Humboldt  Bar 
to  Eureka,  up  the  Columbia  River  to  Portland,  and 
maneuvered  in  squadron  formation  with  the  ships 
of  the  United  States  Navy,  and  all  this  without  a 
Regular  Navy  officer  on  board.  The  real  patriotic 
army  of  the  United  States  today  is  the  National 
Guard.  Upon  its  efficiency  rests  the  safety  of  the 
State  and  the  Nation.  The  untrained  volunteer  of 
the  future  will  be  of  little  use  until  he  gets  a  year's 
training. 

"The  State  of  California  has  the  nucleus  of  a 
splendid  little  army  in  its  National  Guard.  This 
should  be  raised  to  ten  thousand  men,  and  the  Na- 
tive Sons  should  fill  its  ranks  and  make  it  what  it 
should  be — an  organization  to  maintain  peace  and 
order  in  the  State,  and  to  repel  invasion  from  our 
shores,  and  to  carry  the  Stars  and  Stripes  and  the 
Bear  Flag  to  victory  on  any  battlefield  to  which 
it  may  be  sent  to  uphold  those  banners.  No  man 
or  organization  of  men  in  this  State  or  country, 
who  do  not  contemplate  violence  and  breaches  of 
the  law.  should  have  any  objection  to  the  National 
Guard.  He  who  works  against  it,  is  a  traitor  to 
his  country,  and  his  State  in  particular.  It  is  as 
much  an  institution  of  this  country  as  the  presi- 
dency, congress,  the  go\  ernoi  ship,  or  the  courts. 
It  is  one  of  the  sacred  institutions  organized  by 
George  Washington.  It  was  the  militia  that  made 
liberty  in  this  Republic  possible.  It  was  the  lack 
of  militia  that  let  the  then  British  General  Ross, 
with  only  four  thousand  men,  wade  through  a  mob 
of  fifteen  thousand  untrained  volunteers  and  burn 
Washington  in  the  War  of  1812.  It  was  Andrew 
Jackson  chiefly,  who  was  then  Adjutant-General  of 
Tennessee,  with  his  Tennessee  Militia,  that  defeat- 
ed the  British  at  New  Orleans  in  1S14.  It  was  the 
militia  that  hastily  filled  the  army  and  navy  with 
volunteers  in  the  Spanish-American  War.  The  mi- 
litia of  today  is  no  joke  any  more.  It  is  filled  with 
splendid,  patriotic  young  Californians,  and  should 
be  swelled  with  Native  Sons  until  its  ranks  are  as 
full  as  the  Legislature  will  make  provisions  for 
maintaining. 

Native    Sons    Should    Build    Up    Guard. 

"What  prouder  document  do  we  have  hanging  in 
our  local  Native  Sons  Parlors  than  that  of  the  roll 
of  honor  of  the  militia  boys  who  went  out  in  1898? 
And  so  my  advice  is,  for  the  Native  Sons  to  take 
hold  and  make  the  California  Militia  the  pride  of 
the  United  States,  surpassing  that  of  any  other 
state  in  efficiency  and  patriotism,  if  not  in  numbers. 
It  is  essentially  a  State  institution  and  bears  the 
charmed  word-abbreviation  '  Cal. '  on  every  uni- 
form. Thus  we  can  show  to  the  world  that  we  are 
real  patriots,  and  ready  to  maintain  in  high 
efficiency  the  sacred  institutions  of  our  beloved 
State.  This  would  convince  the  people  of  the 
world  that  the  Native  Sons  were  filled  with  true 
patriotism  for  their  golden  land.  To  organize  a 
lot  of  lodge-room  soldiers,  neither  recognized  by 
the  State  nor  Government,  and  of  absolutely  no 
more  use  in  time  of  war  than  raw  recruits,  it  seems 
to  me  would  not  only  be  a  waste  of  energy,  but  a 
futile  attempt  to  accomplish  a  result  in  which  we 
would  fail,  owing  to  the  changed  condition  of  sol- 
diering   now    in    vogue. 

"If  the  Native  Sons  want  to  help  their  State, 
and  assist  in  building  up  a  State  Militia  to  be  proud 
of,  I  will  do  everything  I  can  to  help  the  move- 
ment. If  they  want  to  simply  get  up  a  rival  insti- 
tution of  little  use  to  their  country,  and  of  no  use 
to  their  State,  and  which  would  rather  tend  to  keep 
Native  Sons  out  of  what  should  be  one  of  the 
State 's  proudest  and  dearest  institutions,  then 
count  me  out,  for  I  am  not  favorable  to  such  a 
movement.  It  is  up  to  the  Native  Sons  to  take  up 
and  revive  the  dying  patriotism  of  this  State  and 
Nation,  which  is  being  stifled  By  selfish  combina- 
tions of  wealth  and  by  other  hostile  organizations

••K.  \.  FORBES." 
My  dear  readers,  it  was  only  after  the  many  arg 
fut  requests  made  of  me  by  the  members  of  se> 
eral  Native  Son  Parlors  and  many  citizens  of  Oak- 
land, who  are  deeply  interested  in  this  subject,  and 
after  a  careful  consideration  and  study  on  my  part, 
that  I  consented  to  submil  this  article  for  publics 
tion  ni  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine.  As  a  native 
American,  :i  loyal  CaUfomian,  and  :i  Native  Sob  of 
the  Golden  West  who  loves  the  teachings  and  the 
fundamental  principles  of  the  organization  and  the 

institutions    of     Ins     country,     and     who     has     always 

had  the  besl  interests  and  welfare  of  the  state  and 
country  at  heart,  I  am  submitting  this  proposition 
without  reserve,  and  with  the  honest  conviction 
that  the  idea  will  commend  itself  to  all  fair-minded 
Americans  anil  Native  Sons.  The  wisdom  of  the 
adoption  of  this  proposition,  by  the  fraternal  or- 
ganizations of  California,  can  be  best  expressed  in 
the  following  words  of  Abraham  Lincoln:  "Let 
us  have  faith  that  right  makes  might;  and  in  that 
faith    let    us   do   our   duty    as    we   understand    it."

NATIONAL  AND  STATE  GOVERNMENTS 

CONSTRUCTING  GREAT  CALIFORNIA  MAP. 
steady  progress  is  being  made  in  the  construc- 
tion of  the  great  topographical  map  of  California 
by  the  United  States  Geological  Survey  and  the 
state.  This  huge  map  will  be,  when  completed,  a 
work  of  which  both  the  Federal  Government  and 
California  may  well  lie  proud.  It  will  be  made  up 
of  a  large  number  of  sheets  of  uniform  size,  each 
representing  a  rectangular  area  called  a  quadrangle. 
Already  17(1  quadrangles  have  been  surveyed,  most 
of  them  in  great  detail,  and  an  alias  sheet  for  each 
has  been  engraved  and  printed  by  the  Survey.  These 
quadrangles  include  areas  ranging  from  the  vast 
tint  reaches  of  the  Sacramento  Valley  to  the  glacier- 
laden  peaks  of  the  High  Sierras. 

Perhaps  the  most  comprehensive  and  detailed 
topographic  mapping  in  the  world  has  been  that  of 
the  broad  Sacramento  Valley,  comprising  an  area 
of  more  than  3,000,000  acres.  This  has  already  been 
completely  surveyed  by  the  topographers  of  the 
United  States  Geological  Survey  in  co-operation 
with  the  State  of  California,  each  paying  half  the 
cost.  The  survey  covers  all  land  possible  of  irri- 
gation between  Red  Bluff  on  the  north  and  Suisun 
Bay  and  Stockton  on  the  south.  Surveys  of  the 
same  class  are  now  being  pushed  southward  under 
a  similar  co-operative  agreement  between  the  State 
and  the  Geological  Survey.  The  present  field  sea- 
son 's  plans  include  the  mapping  of  the  area  near 
Stockton  and  farther  south  in  the  San  Joaquin  Val- 
ley. The  maps  will  be  on  the  same  scale  and  con- 
tour interval  as  those  of  the  Sacramento,  and  the 
topographers  expect  to  survey  this  season  twelve 
7% -minute  quadrangles  and  later  to  continue  the 
work  down  to  the  hill  country  south  of  Bakersfield. 
When  this  work  is  completed  it  will  afford  for  the 
great  twin  valley  empire  of  California  an  exact 
geographic  basis  for  engineering  development  of 
any  class — irrigation,  drainage,  road  or  bridge  con- 
struction— in  fact,  any  work  requiring  accurate  de- 
termination of  levels. 

This  year's  field  work  of  the  Geological  Survey 
will  include  the  completion  of  the  survey  of  the 
nine  following  quadrangles  in  various  parts  of  Cal- 
ifornia, or  so  much  of  them  as  the  funds  available 
and  the  length  of  the  field  season  will  permit: 
Bishop  quadrangle,  lying  largely  within  the  Inyo 
National  Forest,  the  valley  portion  being  subject  to 
development  from  irrigation.  Long  Valley  quad 
rangle,  lying  partly  within  the  Inyo  National  For- 
est, and  containing  the  source  of  Owens  River, 
which  furnishes  the  water  supply  of  Los  Angeles, 
through  the  long  aqueduct  now  being  constructed. 
Priest  Valley  Quadrangle,  partly  within  the  Monte- 
rey National  Forest,  adjoining  the  Coal  in  ga  oil 
fields;  within  the  last  two  or  three  years  a  railroad 
has  been  built  into  this  region  from  the  main  coast 
line  of  the  Southern  Pacific.  Weaverville  Quad- 
rangle, lying  within  the  Trinity  and  Shasta  National 
Forests.  Point  Reyes  and  Petaluma  Quadrangles, 
adjacent  to  San  Francisco  Pay.  Borax  Flat  Quad- 
rangle, lying  on  the  desert  of  i  California  and  par- 
ticularly interesting  from  the  fact  that  is  supplies 
a  large  amount  of  the  borax  used  in  the  United 
States;  in  the  center  of  this  quadrangle  is  the  fa- 
mous Randsburg  mine.  Big  Bear  Quadrangle,  ad- 
joining the  Weaverville  area  and  partly  within  the 
Trinity  National  Forest.  In  the  Salinas  Valley  two 
"C.-minute  quadrangles  are  to  be   mapped. 

An  index  map  of  *  ialifornia,  showing  the  quad 
rangles  of  which  maps  have  been  issued,  can  be  ob-

According  to  officials  of  the  Panama  Pacific  In- 
ternational Exposition  to  he  held  in  San  Francisco 
in  191  ■">,  thirty-seven  counties  of  the  state  wilt 
levy  special  taxes  for  'to-  purpose  ol  making  ex- 
hibits at   the   Exposition,  in  accordance  with  a    law 

passed  by  the  last  Legislature  authorizing  t  lie 
levying  of  such  special  1  axes  of  1 1 ■  * t  to  exceed  six

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR

(COMPILED  FOR  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAR  BY  THOMAS  R.  JONES.) 


HE  NEWS  FROM  THE  SEAT  OF 
war  in  the  East  continued  to  tie  of 
an  exciting  character,  although  much 
of  it  was  composed  of  unfounded 
rumors  and  canards.  Recruiting 
went  on  apace  in  every  county  of 
the  State,  and  companies  of  infantry 
and  cavalry  were  frequently  mov- 
ing from  the  interior  to  Camp  Dow- 
ney, in  Alameda  County.  Governor 
Downey  was  kept  busy  issuing  com- 
missions to  officers  and  attending  to 
his  other  military  duties.  H.  M.  Judah  and  John 
Kellogg  were  appointed  colonels  of  the  new  regi- 
ments that  were  being  recruited.  Among  the  com- 
panies organized  in  the  interior  counties,  and  most 
of  which  were  marched  to  Camp  Downey  and  mus- 
tered in,  are  mentioned  the  following:  Yuba  Cav- 
alry, Captain  Wm.  Singer;  Sacramento  Rangers, 
Captain  De  Merritt;  Lyon  Guards,  Sacramento, 
Captain  J.  A.  Zabriskie;  Tuolumne  Rangers,  Cap- 
tain Atkins  j  Siskiyou  Cavalry,  Captain  Chas. 
McDermott;  Auburn  Greys,  Captain  D.  L.  Whiting; 
Placer  Mountaineers,  Captain  J.  Ives  Fitch;  Sierra 
Greys,  Captain  W.  L.  Parvis;  Santa  Clara  Light 
Infantry,  Captain  A.  J.  Jackson;  Marysville  Rifles, 
Captain  T.  A.  Coult;  Butte  County  Dragoons,  Cap- 
tain C.  E.  Campbell;  El  Dorado  Volunteers,  Captain 
W.  S.  Lefland;  Shasta  Volunteers,  Captain  B.  R. 
West;  Sonoma  Guards,  Captain  W.  E.  Hall;  Siski- 
you Cavalry,  Captain  Joseph  Smith,  and  Stockton 
Guards,  Captain  H.  O.  Malthus. 

A  regiment  of  volunteers  was  sent  from  Camp 
Downey  to  Los  Angeles  by  steamer  on  September 
16th,  with  the  supposed  intention  of  marching  to 
New  Mexico  and  meeting  a  Confederate  force  that 
had  captured  the  military  posts  in  Arizona.  Gen- 
eral H.  W.  Halleek,  commanding  the  California 
militia,  was  commissioned  by  President  Lincoln  a 
major-general  and  left  California  to  serve  under 
General  McClellan  in  the  Army  of  the  Potomac. 

On  September  21st  a  mob  gathered  around  Cal- 
vary church  in  San  Francisco  to  voice  their  dis- 
approval of  the  disloyal  sentiments  expressed  by 
Dr.  Scott,  the  pastor.  Dr.  Scott  was  a  Southern 
man,  and  when  the  remarks  lie  made  at  a  Presby- 
terian ministers'  meeting  were  published,  they 
raised  a  tumult.  The  Stars  and  Stripes  were  raised 
over  the  church  and  the  police  had  a  strenuous  time 
preventing  injury  to  persons  and  damage  to  prop- 
erty. In  view  of  the  threatening  demonstration, 
Dr.  Scott  resigned  and  departed  for  Europe. 

It  was  reported  that  a  company  of  fifty  or  more 
Southern  sympathizers  left  San  Francisco  on  Sep- 
tember 20th,  intending  to  join  the  Confederate 
army  in  Texas  by  marching  overland  through 
Mexico. 

Thursday,  September  26th,  was  named  by  Pres- 
ident Lincoln  as  a  day  of  fasting  and  prayer  for 
the  safety  of  the  Nation,  and  was  generally  ob- 
served by  the  closing  of  business  houses  and  ser- 
vices  in    the    churches. 


Devil  Has  Full  Sway  at  State  Fair. 

The  Annual  State  Fair  opened  at  Sacramento  on 
September  16th  and  closed  with  the  usual  grand 
ball  on  the  23rd.  It  was  one  of  the  largest  attended 
and  most  successful,  from  every  point  of  view,  yet 
held,  and  had  a  number  of  exciting  incidents,  due 
to  the  political  situation.  The  opening  address  was 
delivered  by  J.  A.  Banks  of  San  Francisco.  C.  E. 
DeLong  of  Yuba  County  delivered  the  annual  ad- 
dress and  Governor  Nye  made  a  talk.  Jerome  C. 
Davis  was  president  and  managed  affairs  in  good 
shape.  The  visitors  were  given  entertainment  out- 
side of  the  park  and  pavilion  by  McKean  Buchanan 
and  his  troupe,  in  Shakespearian  tragedies;  by 
Bassett's  circus;  performances  of  a  salacious  char- 
acter at  two  melodeons;  a  panorama  of  Europe  and 
a  panorama  of  the  Civil  War;  the  largest  hog  in 
the  world,  weighing  1541  pounds;  the  Albino  child- 
ren; a  giant,  a  dwarf,  a  fat  girl,  a  living  skeleton 
man,  sword  swallowers  and  stone  eaters.  Faro  and 
rondo  and  every  other  kind  of  game  of  chance 
flourished  openly  in  the  saloons,  and  there  were  no 
restrictions  upon  the  devil  during  fair  week. 

As  a  fitting  end  to  the  festivities,  the  Jewish 
synagogue  was  destroyed  by  fire  on  September  23rd, 
the  last  day  of  the  fair.  A  number  of  incendiary 
fires  followed  and  the  impression  prevailed  that 
some  of  the  sports  who  had  gone  broke  were  com- 
mitting arson  to  gain  an  opportunity  to  steal. 

A  steam  fire  engine  from  Baltimore  was  exhibited, 
and  given  public  trials  during  the  fair.  It  attracted 
thousands  of  spectators  when  at  work  and  was  con- 
sidered a  wonderful  machine. 

The  payment  of  an  election  bet  by  Humphrey 
Griffith,  a  prominent  Democratic  politician  of  that 
time,   was   one   of   the   events  of   the   fair.      Griffith 


was  a  candidate  for  county  judge  on  the  Democratic 
ticket  in  Yolo  County  and  bet  Joseph  Reed  of  Sac- 
ramento a  cow  upon  the  result,  with  an  agreement 
to  drive  it  from  his  ranch  to  Sacramento  in  case  he 
lost.  As  Griffith  lost,  it  was  arranged  that  he  should 
deliver  the  cow  at  Agricultural  Park  on  September 
20th.  He  appeared  on  the  afternoon  of  that  date 
in  vaquero  costume,  accompanied  by  twenty  or  more 
prominent  citizens,  all  mounted  and  dressed  as 
vaqueros,  drawing  a  scrubby,  diminutive  black  cow, 
(claiming  the  color  was  suitable  for  a  "Black"  Re- 
publican victory),  and  delivered  it  to  Reed  with 
the  usual  amount  of  speech  making.  Then  the  cav- 
alcade engaged  in  a  free-for-all  horse  race  around 
the  track,  that  came  near  resulting  disastrously  to 
several  of  the  riders,  who  were  thrown  from  their 
mustangs   in   the   scramble. 

During  the  afternoon  races  on  September  19th  a 
citizen  of  Sacramento  named  J.  Biderman  exhibited 
to  several  of  his  friends  a  small  Secession  flag  which 
he  had  taken  from  a  prominent  politician  named 
Major  Gillis,  at  a  convention  a  few  months  previ- 
ous. Its  appearance  being  mistaken  by  a  number  of 
Union  men  as  a  display  of  disloyalty,  a  riot  in  which 
several  hundred  men  engaged  was  precipitated. 
The  police  and  park  employes  were  unable  to  cope 
with  or  suppress  it,  and  it  lasted  until  several  score 
of  combatants  retired  whipped,  and  the  Secession 
flag  and  its  owner  were  ejected  from  the  ground. 
Hostilities  of  a  fistic  character  lasted  all  the  after- 
noon in  and  around  the  barroom,  which  was  one 
of  the  principal  money-making  features  of  the  fair. 

The  Marysville  District  Annual  Fair  opened  Sep- 
tember 9th  and  lasted  a  week.  Starr  King  deliv- 
ered the  address.  Governor  Downey  and  Governor 
Nye  attended  and  became  very  chummy.  The  prin- 
cipal racing  event  was  a  stallion  race  between  four 
of  the  fastest  trotters  in  the  State.  It  took  five 
heats  to  decide  it  on  two  days,  and  it  was  won  by 
General  Taylor  in  2:45  and  slower. 

The  San  Joaquin  Valley  fair  also  opened  on  Sep- 
tember 9th,  Wm.  Higby  delivering  the  annual  ad- 
dress. 

The  El  Dorado  County  fair  was  held  at  El  Dorado 
during  the  week  and  Wilson  Flint  delivered  the 
address.  All  these  fairs  were  largely  attended  and 
the  exhibits  showed  a  large  increase  over  previous 
years. 

Kills  Three  Deer  With  One  Bullet. 

Wade  H.  Johnson,  in  Calaveras  County,  while 
hunting  on  the  San  Antonio  Ridge  shot  three  deer 
with  one  bullet.  The  one  he  shot  at  was  struck  in 
the  neck  and  killed;  the  bullet  passed  through  the 
heart  of  the  second  deer  standing  behind  the  first 
and  entered  the  body  of  the  third  deer,  which  was 
a  short  distance  away,  wounding  it  so  badly  that 
Johnson  was  enabled  to  overtake  and  kill  it. 

At  Sacramento,  on  September  12th,  a  ten-mile 
footrace  was  run  between  Henry  Derrick  of  San 
Francisco  and  George  Ludwick  of  Sacramento  for 
$500  a  side.  It  was  won  by  Derrick,  his  opponent 
giving  out  before  running  the  distance. 

At  Nevada  City,  a  series  of  wrestling  matches 
was  held.  The  first  prize,  a  belt  valued  at  $275, 
was  won  by  Thomas  Eudy,  a  second  prize  of  $75  by 
Thomas  Mitchell,  and  a  third  prize  of  $50  by  Rich- 
ard Edwards. 

A  match  race  on  September  8th,  in  San  Francisco, 
two-mile  heats  for  $2,000,  between  California  Dam- 
sel and  Glencoe  Chief,  was  won  by  Damsel  in  5:23 
and  5:15%. 

A  pigeon  shooting  match  at  Stockton  was  won  by 
Dr.  Ayletti. 

Lady  Franklin,  the  widow  of  Sir  John  Franklin, 
the  Arctic  explorer  who  never  returned  from  his 
last  voyage  to  the  North,  visited  Yosemite  Valley 
during  the  month.  She  was  on  a  tour  around  the 
world. 

The  overland  telegraph  line  was  extended  during 
the  month  to  Jacobs  Well,  in  Nevada,  233  miles  east 
of  Fort  Churchill,  and  lessened  the  time  of  pony  dis- 
patches a  day. 

Edmund  Randolph,  one  of  the  most  prominent 
lawyers,  politicians  and  Pioneers  in  the  State,  died 
in  San  Francisco  on  September  8th.  His  funeral  was 
largely  attended  by  the  professional  and  business 
men  of  the  city. 

There  was  a  heavy  movement  of  freight  transpor- 
tation from  California  to  Washoe  at  this  time. 
Freight  was  being  hauled  for  five  cents  a  pound.  A 
traveler  from  Washoe  reported  passing,  between  Sil- 
ver City  and  Folsom,  a  distance  of  13S  miles,  582 
teams.  Horses,  mules  and  oxen  were  being  used. 
Upset  wagons  and  deceased  animals  were  objects  of 
disaster  frequently  seen.  On  account  of  the  con- 
gested condition  on  the  Toad,  it  took  the  west-bound 
team,  at  one  section  of  the  road,  seven  hours  to  move 
seven  miles.     That  this  condition  had  developed  to 


an  astonishing  degree  the  ability  of  the  teamsters 
to  swear,  is  not  surprising.  In  point  of  vehemence, 
originality  and  continuousness  of  imprecation,  pro- 
fanity and  cussing,  the  teamsters  excelled  anything 
of  the  kind  that  had  ever  existed  before. 

A  pack  train  consisting  of  sixty  mules,  each 
loaded  with  400  pounds  of  flour,  was  started,  from 
Sacramento  for  Washoe  on  September  25th. 

Union  Sympathizers  Sweep  State. 

The  biennial  election  of  Governor  and  other  state 
and  county  officers  took  place  on  Wednesday,  Sep- 
tember 4th.  While  the  drift  of  public  opinion  had 
strongly  set  toward  the  Republican  ticket,  the  re- 
sult was  unexpected  by  the  most  ardent  Republican 
partisan.  San  Francisco  cast  over  14,000  votes  and 
went  so  overwhelmingly  Republican  that  the  result 
in  the  State  could  be  foretold  in  a  few  hours  after 
the  polls  closed,  and  the  count  begun.  San  Fran- 
cisco gave  Stanford,  the  Republican  candidate  for 
Governor,  3  to  1  over  Conness,  the  Union-Demo- 
cratic candidate,  and  6  to  1  over  MeConnell,  the 
Southern-Democratic  candidate.  The  result  in  the 
State,  when  the  official  count  was  announced,  gave 
to  Leland  Stanford,  56,031;  John  Conness,  30,944; 
J.  R.  MeConnell,  32,751.  The  total  vote  of  the 
State  approximated  120,000  and  the  Union  vote  was 
over  3  to  1,  which  was  a  gratifying  showing  to  the 
loyal  element.  The  election  gave  the  Republicans 
complete  control  of  the  state  offices  and  also  those 
of  many  counties,  making  as  complete  a  political 
change  as  has  ever  transpired  in  California.  A 
Democrat  had  little  chance  to  be  more  than  a  spec- 
tator from  now  on,  for  several  years,  in  the  po- 
litical  arena. 

An  emigrant  train  composed  of  eleven  wagons, 
fourteen  horses  and  eighty-eight  head  of  cattle,  and 
conveying  seventy-five  people,  of  whom  thirty-five 
were  women  and  children,  was  surrounded  by  about 
forty  men  disguised  as  Indians,  in  Eastern  Nevada, 
and  all  of  the  stock  was  driven  off  by  the  maraud- 
ers. The  emigrants  were  compelled  to  leave  their 
wagons  and  proceed- westward  on  foot,  carrying  what 
food  and  clothing  they  could  upon  their  backs.  They 
reached  Humboldt  Wells  in  a  half-famished  condi- 
tion. Reports  of  their  plight  reaching  Virginia  City, 
a  relief  party  under  command  of  J.  K.  Van  Bokke- 
len  was  sent  to  succor  them  and  bring  them  to  Cal- 
ifornia. 

The  Supreme  Court  of  California  rendered  a  de- 
cision during  the  month  declaring  the  Sunday  law 
constitutional,  but  it  did  not  have  much  effect  upv.i 
the  non-observance  by  saloon-keepers  and  business 
men,  who  were  determined  to  continue  in  their  Sun- 
day habits  of  doing  business  on  that  day. 

Admission  Day  was  appropriately  observed  by  the 
Pioneer  Societies  in  the  State  at  the  banquet  table, 
with  toasts  and  song. 

An  epidemic  of  putrid  sore  throat  was  prevailing 
in  San  Francisco,  and  fatal  to  many  children. 

HealdsbuTg  was  partially  destroyed  by  fire  on 
September   10th. 

White  Man  of  No  Value. 

In  Humboldt  County  a  man  named  Charles  Clark, 
while  crossing  Eel  River  on  horseback,  got  into 
deep  water,  and  rider  and  horse  were  in  great  dan- 
ger of  drowning  when  an  Indian  appeared  with  a 
boat,  rescued  Clark  and  afterwards  saved  the  horse. 
After  both  had  been  safely  landed  the  Indian  de- 
manded and  received  $100  for  his  services.  On  be- 
ing criticised  by  the  white  men  living  thereabouts 
for  taking  undue  advantage  of  a  drowning  man,  he 
answered  with  the  following  display  of  Indian 
logic:  "Me  no  go  there,  white  man  and  hoss  both 
drown;  me  save  'em.  Hoss,  he  worth  $100;  white 
man,  he  worth  nothing.  Me  save  hoss.  Catehee 
$100. " 

A  wool  growers1  convention  was  held  at  Sacra- 
mento on  September  2uth,  and  was  well  attended 
by  the  sheep  raisers  of  the  State,  who  discussed  the 
condition  of  the  industry  with  great  earnestness. 
General  A.  Redington  was  elected  president. 

Kohler  &  Frohling,  wine  manufacturers  in  San 
Francisco,  made  a  shipment  of  wine  to  New  York 
around  Cape  Horn,  and  had  it  returned  to  San 
Francisco  by  way  of  Panama.  The  improvement 
over  wines  of  the  same  age  was  found  to  be  very

(By  HON.   JAMES  D.   PHELAN,   of  Pacific  Parlor,  N.S.G.W.,  San  Francisco.) 


N  THE  AUGUST  MMBER  OF  THE 
Grizzly  Bear,  I  find  an  editorial 
under    the    caption,    ' '  Why    [mprove 

Privately  ( >\\  ned  Property  .' ' ',  mea  a 
ing  thereby  'In1  old  Missions  of  I  !al 
ifornia,  which  are  owned  for  the 
mosl  part  by  the  Catholic  church,  al- 
though two  of  them — the  Purissima 
Mission  at  Lonipoe,  and  the  St. 
Francis  De  Solano  Mission  at  the 
city  of  Sonoma— have  passed  into 
the  control  of  the  State.  The  article, 
which  was  apparently  written  in  a  spirit  of  resent- 
ment i  the  facts  leading  up  to  which  I  am  not  fa- 
miliar with),  raises  :i  question  which,  for  the  bet- 
ter understanding  of  an  important  subject,  should 
In'  aiisw ered. 

Last  spring  I  made  an  automobile  tour  in  South- 
ern ami  Northern  California  and  personally  inspect- 
ed many  of  the  Missions,  and  I  realized  then  very 
forcibly  that  the  State  has  in  the  old  Missions  a 
very  valuable  possession.  The  old  Missions  estab- 
lish :i  link  between  the  past  and  the  present;  they 
stir  the  imagination;  they  quicken  one's  sentimen- 
tal interest  in  the  old  days  of  the  State's  early  set 
tlement.  which  should  not  be  forgotten,  and  to  the 
perpetuation  of  which  the  Order  of  the  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West  is  especially  pledged.  There- 
fore, it  is  unfortunate  that  there  should  be  any  mis- 
understanding looking  to  the  preservation  of  the 
Missions,  which  in  many  places  are  fast  falling  into 
irrcp:i  rable   decay. 

With  this  idea  in  mind,  on  my  own  responsibility, 
I  communicated  with  the  Catholic  Bishop  of  San 
Francisco  and  the  Catholic  Bishop  of  Los  Angeles, 
and  1  herewith  offer  for  publication  the  correspond- 
ence  which,  I  believe,  is  very  illuminating.  It  ap- 
pears  first,  that  on  account  of  the  secularization  of 
tin-  Missions,  the  Catholic  church  for  a  while  lost 
control  over  them  and  the  Mexican  Government 
let   them  fall  into  a  ruinous  condition. 

The  church,  on  recovering  its  property,  appar- 
ently preserved  in  whole,  or  in  part,  such  Missions 
as  were,  by  reason  no  doubt  of  the  presence  of  pop- 
ulation, available  for  church  services.  As  to  the 
other  Missions,  it  is  regret  able  to  say  that  they 
were  abandoned  and  that  some  of  them  have  been 
saved  from  absolute  destruction  by  local  pride  or 
the  kindly  contributions  of  well-disposed  people; 
but  at  no  time  has  there  been  a  general  plan,  either 
fostered  by  the  State  or  otherwise,  to  effectively 
restore  these  historic  landmarks.  The  Native  Sons 
and  other  organizations  have  done  something  in  a 
small  way,  ami  the  controversy  now  arises  appar- 
ently between  the  church  authorities  and  the  Land- 
marks Committee  of  the,  Xative  Sons  concerning 
tin'  method  of  the  expenditure  of  the  money  voted 
by  the  Native  Sons  Grand  Parlor  for  the  restora- 
tion of  Santa  Ynez  Mission. 

Santa  Ynez  Mission  was  used  by  the  church  up 
to  the  time  of  the  recent  flood,  and  I  assume  that 
the  church  desires  to  direct  the  work  of  restora- 
tion.  In  cases  where  the  church  is  not  using  Mis- 
sion property.  1  am  conviirced  that  there  could  be 
no  objection  to  the  Landmarks  Committee  of  the 
Native  Sons,  or  any  other  organization,  restoring 
the  old  buildings  on  the  original  lines.  Therefore, 
we  must  distinguish  between  the  Missions  that  are 
used  by  the  church,  over  which  it  should  have  con- 
trol. 1  believe,  and  the  abandoned  Missions,  which 
are  no  longer  used.  Possibly,  the  State  would  take 
the  latter  over  and.  as  in  the  case  of  the  Sonoma 
Mission,    make   provision    for   their   restoration. 

T  think  the  error  into  which  the  editorial  has  fal- 
len is  in  assuming  that  the  Missions  are  in  any  but 
a  very  narrow  sen---'  * '  private  property. ' '  They 
are  open  to  the  public  at  all  times,  and  I  think  it  is 
very  important  to  dwell  upon  the  fact  that  the 
Missions  are  a  much  greater  attraction,  and  of  very 


means  and  credit  and  were  put  to  the  necessity  of 
doing  something  remunerative  in  order  to  eat.  They 
concluded  to  prospect  a  small  gravel  streak  they 
had  passed  through  several  months  previous,  and 
began  panning  dirt  from  it.  with  the  result  of  get- 
ting $70  from  the  first  pan  and  a  yield  of  $340  from 
four  pans  of  the  gravel.  Over  $500  was  obtained 
the  second  day,  and  $6,000  was  subsequently  taken 
out  in  eight  hours.  This  was  one  of  the  richest 
strikes  in   this  locality  ever  made. 

A  boulder  found  at  Forest  City  contained  four- 
teen   pounds  of  gold,  worth  nearly  $3,000. 

A  boulder  of  copper  ore  weighing  2,500  pounds, 
from  the  Key  stone  ledge  near  Copperopolis,  was 
shipped  by  Dr,  Holden  of  Stockton  by  vessel  to 
London  for  exhibition  at  the  World's  Fair  to  be  held 
in  that  city.  It  was  considered  a  magnificent 
specimen. 


much  deeper  interest,  when  they  are  being  used  for 
church  purposes,  and  especially  when  they  are  occu- 
pied by  a  monastic  order.    One  need  but  recall  the 

Santa  Barbara  Mission  and  the  Missimi  of  San  LuiS 
l,V\  to  see  the  for '  'his  contention.  How  bar- 
ren and  empty  they  would  be  without  the  church 
services  and  the  presence  of  the  successors  of  the 
men  who  built  them  and  planted  civilization  in  our 
early  California.  In  fact,  I  would  almost  be  dis- 
posed  to  say  that  their  presence  is  essential,  in  their 
characteristic  garb,  to  complete  the  picture  of  the 
past,  and  it  is  the  picture  of  the  past  that  we  seek 
and   that  tourists  and  archaeologists  alike   seek. 

I  trust  that  there  will  be  a  better  understanding, 
if  indeed  there  is  any  difference  at  all,  between  the 
Order  of  the  Native  Sons  and  the  authorities  of 
the  church  in  the  very  important  matter  of  the 
restoration  of  the  Missions.  I  herewith  submit  the 
following  correspondence,  which  I  trust  will  con- 
tribute to  the  realization  of  that  end.  Meanwhile, 
I  would  respectfully  suggest  that  the  Landmarks 
Committee  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
call  a  meeting  of  all  those  interested  in  the  subject 
and  once  and  for  all  settle  the  question  whether 
California  will,  by  one  means  or  another,  take  up  the 
work  of  restoration,  which  is,  I  believe,  incumbent 
upon  it.  Unable  to  maintain  the  Yosemite  Valley, 
we  gave  it  to  the  Federal  Government.  .  Should  we 
abandon  our  heritage  in  the  Missions  because  we 
are  indifferent  to  them,  or  because  in  a  narrow 
sense  they  are  ' '  privately  owned "?  I  have  en- 
deavored to  show  that  their  "private  ownership" 
is  one  of  the  important  elements  of  their  present- 
day  interest. 

The  State  is  about  to  expend  $18,000,000  on  high- 
ways, and  the  path  of  El  Camino  Real  leads,  as  we 
know,  from  Mission  to  Mission.  Here  is  an  ad- 
ditional reason  to  fully  restore,  or  properly  repair, 
as  each  case  requires,  the  twenty-one  Missions 
which  tied  Northern  and  Southern  California  to- 
gether in  the  good  old  days  "before  the  Gringo 
came. " 


Letter  Addressed  to  Church  Authorities. 

On  May  3rd,  I  addressed  the  following  letter  to 
Archbishop  P.  W.  Riordan  of  San  Francisco  and 
Bishop  Thomas  J.  Conaty  of  Los  Angeles,  in  whose 
Catholic  dioceses  the  Missions  are,  and  in  answer 
to  which  I  received  replies  given  in  full  below: 

I  am  interested  in  securing  information  concerning  the 
preservation  and  restoration  of  the  old  Missions.  Would 
you  be  kind  enough  to  inform  me  on  the  subject?  I  as- 
sume that  the  Missions  are  all  held  as  the  property  of  the 
church,  and  that  in  a  business  sense,  any  improvements 
or  restoration  made  would  accrue  to  the  church,  and  I 
suppose  that  it  is  within  the  authority  of  the  Archbishops 
of  the  several  dioceses  to  dispose  of  the  property,  in  case 
there    was    necessity    for    so    doing. 

In  view  of  these  facts,  if  such  they  are,  would  it  be 
possible,  in  case  the  Missions  were  restored,  to  give  a 
binding  assurance  that  they  would  be  preserved  forever 
as  Mission  churches?  What  I  have  in  view  is  that,  if 
money  was  contributed  from  the  community  at  large  by 
subscription,  the  question  might  arise,  which  should  be 
answered,  that  in  case  the  Missions  are  restored,  will 
they  remain  forever  as  Missions,  and  not  be  sold  for  com- 
mercial   purposes? 

May  I  ask,  have  you  a  report  as  to  the  condition  of  the 
Missions  in  your  jurisdiction,  and  what  steps  have  been 
taken,  and  by  whom,  to  preserve  or  restore  them?  What 
co-operation  will  the  church  give  in  such  a  movement? 
Any  information  bearing  on  this  general  subject  will  be 
very    welcome.  Yours    very    respectfully, 

JAMES   D.    PHELAN. 

Letter   From   Bishop   Conaty. 

Chancery  Office,    114   East  Second   Street, 

Los   Angeles,   May  9,    1911. 

Mr.  James  D.  Phelan,  San  Francisco — My  Dear  Sir:  In 
answer  to  your  letter  of  May  3rd,  I  would  state  that  the 
Missions  are  held  as  the  property  of  the  church,  in  the 
title  of  the  Bishop  in  whose  diocese  they  are  found. 
Nearly  all  of  them  are  in  this  diocese.  In  the  case  of 
the  San  Antonio  Mission,  there  is  a  lease  to  the  Califor- 
nia Landmarks  Club  of  San  Francisco.  San  Fernando, 
Capistrano  and  Pala  are  leased  to  the  Southern  California 
Landmarks  Club.  These  leases  expire  in  1912.  The  lease 
allows  the  Landmarks  Club  the  use  of  the  property,  and 
they  have  done  some  work  of  restoration.  The  Purissima 
Mission,  at  Lompoc,  does  not  belong  to  the  church.  In 
some  way  it  passed  into  the  hands  of  others,  but  at  last, 
bv  gift  of  the  Union  Oil  Company,  it  was  given  to  the 
State    of    California. 

I  think  it  is  safe  to  say  that  there  is  little  likelih^id 
of  the  Mission  properties  ever  passing  from  the  han*s  of 
the  church.  I  know  that  I  would  not  under  any  condition 
favor  their  sale,  especially  where  any  restoration  has 
been  made,  or  where  there  is  any  possibility  of  the  build- 
ing being  used  for  church  purposes.  Many  of  them  are 
in  a  state  of  absolute  decay  and  are  not  used  for  any  pur- 
pose whatever,  while  several  of  them  serve  the  parochial 
purposes    of    the    locality. 

The  Santa  Ynez  Mission,  which  was  recently  damaged 
by  the  storm,  has  had  considerable  money  spent  upon  it, 
all  of  which  has  been  contributed  by  the  Bishop  from  the 
diocesan  funds.  In  the  past  four  or  five  years  we  have 
spent  between  $6,000  and  $7,000  upon  this  Mission,  and 
at  present  we  are  preparing  to  make  such  repairs  as  are 
necessary  to  restore  it  to  the  condition  it  was  before  the 
storm. 

Speaking  for  myself,  I  stand  ready  to  co-operate  with 
any    citizen    in    the    work    of    restoration.       Several    sugges-

Reply  From  Archbishop  Riordan. 

San  Francisco,    Maj    6     I 

My  Dear  Mr.  Phelan:     I  beg  t'j  acknowledge  the  receipt 
of  your   tetter  of  th<    3rd   inst.   in  reference   to   the 
vation    and    restoration    of    the    old    Mission      of    Cal 
It   pleases   me  very   much   to   know    that    you    arc    into 
in    (Ins    work.      These    old    buildingB    and    run, 
the    only   memorials    we    have    of    the    earlii  and 

respects   the   must   fascinating,  period  of  our  history.     The 
stand   as   the   connecting   links    between    thi'    heroic   days    oi 
the    missioners — who    were    our    first    discoverers,    ■  ■■■ 
and    chroniclers — and    the    Bt  renui 

when  everything  is  so  very  modern.  It  is  surely  worth 
while  that  the  remnants  of  the  old  Missions  should  be  i"1 
served  among  us  as  symbols,  not  merely  to  recall  ■  ■ 
ished  past,  but  also  to  teach  us  something  of  the  faith,  the 
self-sacrifice,  and  the  devotion  to  high  ideals  of  thosi 
who  built  them — lessons  which  it  would  not  be  well  for 
us    to    forget. 

I  think  that  every  Californian  should  be  glad  to  assist 
in  the  restoration  and  preservation  of  these  public  monu- 
ments. For  my  own  part,  I  shall  be  very  glad  to  do  all  I 
can  to  help  you  and  those  who  are  associated  with  you  in 
this  work.  I  would  be  willing  to  become  the  vice-presi- 
dent, or  a  member  of  the  executive  committee,  of  the  go 
ciety  which  proposed  to  take  this  work  in  hand.  I  make 
this  suggestion  for  the  sake  of  the  support  which,  in  vir- 
tue of  my  office,  I  would  be  able  to  bring  to  the  society. 
I  feel  sure,  moreover,  that  if  Bishop  Conaty  of  Los  An- 
geles were  approached  on  the  matter  he  also  would  be  verj 
glad  to  lend  his  name  and  influence  in  a  similar  way.  It 
seems  to  me  only  proper  that  the  ecclesiastical  authori- 
ties of  the  two  dioceses  in  which  the  Missions  are  located 
should  have  some  official  connection  with  any  project  for 
their    restoration    and    preservation. 

The  only  Mission  building  in  the  diocese  of  San  Fran- 
cisco, in  which  the  title  is  vested  in  me,  is  the  Mission 
Dolores.  The  ruins  of  Sonoma  passed  out  of  church  con- 
trol long  before  I  came  here.  Of  San  Rafael,  nothing  re- 
mains. The  ruins  of  San  Jose  Mission  are  perhaps  beyond 
any  hope  of  redemption;  the  property  there  belongs  to 
the  corporation  of  the  Dominican  Sisters.  Santa  Clara  be- 
longs to  the  Jesuits;  the  old  church  has  long  since  disap- 
peared, but  the  present  one  of  wood  occupies  the  old  site, 
and  I   believe  is  an   imitation  of  the   original. 

Your  further  inquiry  as  to  the  permanence  of  title  is  a 
legal  question.  I  think,  however,  that  if  the  church  is 
left  in  freedom  her  whole  history  gives  abundant  assurance 
that  she  will  never  devote  her  places  of  worship  to  "com- 
mercial purposes."  Where  this  has  happened,  it  has  been 
brought  about  by  other  authorities,  and  in  the  face  of  her 
protest.  Had  not  the  Mexican  Government  driven  out  the 
Franciscans  and  confiscated  the  Missions  in  this  State,  the 
fathers  would  have  continued  to  care  for  the  old  churches, 
and  these  would  not  now  be  in  their  present  deplorable 
condition.  Meanwhile.  I  wish  you  every  success  in  your 
happy  undertaking.  I  am,  my  dear  Mr.  Phelan, 
Sincerely   yours, 

P.   W.   RIORDAN. 


SITE    FINALLY   SELECTED   FOR 

SAN   FRANCISCO    EXPOSITION. 

On  Wednesday,  July  26th,  the  directors  of  the 
Panama  Pacific  International  Exposition  unani- 
mously compromised  on  the  selection  of  a  site  for 
the  1915  exposition  in  San  Francisco,  with  a  view 
to  giving  the  city  the  greatest  amount  of  perma- 
nent improvements  possible,  eapeeitlly  along  t lie- 
water  front.  According  to  the  site  selected,  the 
industrial  buildings  and  other  temporary  structures 

will  be  erected  at  Harbor  View,  overlooking  tl n 

trance  to  the   harbor,   where  a  permanent   yachting 
and  boating  course  will  be  made. 

All  permanent  buildings,  museums  and  the  like 
will  be  placed  in  Golden  Gate  Park,  excepting  the 
enormous  convention  hall,  which  will  be  located  at 
the  civic  center  of  the  city.  Van  Ness  and  Market 
streets. 

The  other  permanent  improvements  will  include 
the  beautifieation  of  the  wuole  water  front  from 
the  Cliff  House  to  the  Ferry.  Boulevards  will  con- 
nect the  different  buildings,  and  a  part  of  the  fair 
will  be  placed  on  Lincoln  Park,  which  stands  on 
the  most  westerly  point  of  the  city,  overlooking 
the  Golden  Gate  itself. 

It  is  now  expected  that  active  work  in  prepara 
tion  for  the  big  world's  fair  will  now  be  pushed 
forward  at  a  rapid  pace.  Already  the  several  coun- 
ties of  California  are  planning  exhibits,  and  as  the 
last  Legislature  provided  ^or  the  levying  of  special 
taxes  by  the  Boards  of  Supervisors  for  the  purpose, 
it  is  expected  that  the  California  exhibit  as  a  whole 
will  be  on  a  grander  and  larger  scale  than  ever  be- 
fore attempted.  Tin-  exposition  is  sure  to  draw 
thousands  of  home-seekers,  and  the  county  making 
the  best  display  will  be  in  a  position  to  enli 
attention,  and  final  settlement  within  its  bound- 
aries, of  the  greatest  percentage  of  those  who  de 
sire  to  come  to  the  land  of  sunshine,  fruits  and 
flowers  to  reside,  and  who  will  be  drawn  here  by 
the   exposition.

PHELAM'S  ARTICLE 


On  another  page  of  this  issue  will  be  found  an 
article  from  Hour  James  D.  Phelan.  written  against 
the  argument  of  the  editor,  that  the  restoration  of 
missions  and  other  landmarks  owned  by  private 
individuals  should  not  be  financiallv  aided  by  the 
Order  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  so  long 
as  those  landmarks  are  privately  owned.  In  con- 
junction with  Mr.  Phelan 's  article,  he  presents 
correspondence  which,  while  it  antedated  the  Santa 
Vnez  Mission  controversy — which  was  the  basis  for 
the  "Why  Improve  Privately  Owned  Property?" 
editorial  of  last  month — is  decidedly  interesting, 
and  to  our  mind,  presents  some  of  the  best  reasons 
in  support  of  our  contention.  Let  us  consider  Mr. 
Phelan  "s   article    and    correspondence: 

The  fact  that  the  Mission  landmarks  are  owned 
largely  by  the  Catholic  Church,  is  of  but  secondary 
consideration,  as  the  contentions  herein  would  be 
applicable  were  they  owned  by  any  other  corpora- 
tion, firm  or  individual.  There  can.  to  our  way  of 
thinking,  be  no  argument  against  the  statement 
that  the  Missions  in  which  title  is  vested  in  the 
Catholic  Chuich  are  privately  owned,  for  any  prop- 
erty not  owned  by  The  People  must  of  necessity 
be  privately  owned.  The  fact  that  these  Mission 
properties  are  not  open  to  the  religious  use  of 
Protestant  or  Jewish  religious  organizations,  but  to 
exclusive  religious  use  of  the  Catholic  Church,  is 
proof  positive  that  they  are  privately  owned,  not  in 
a  ''very  narrow  sense,"  but  in  the  very  broadest  in- 
terpretation of  the  term  "private  property."  Mr. 
Phelan 's  statement  that  "the  article  was  appar- 
ently written  in  a  spirit  of  resentment,"  is  not 
correct,  for  we  take  it  that  we  have  nothing  to 
resent.  We  believe  the  Bishop's  position,  from  the 
church's  viewpoint,  is  perfectly  justifiable.  It  could 
with  more  fitness  be  charged  that  the  Bishop's 
action  was  done  "in  a  spirit  of  resentment,"  for 
as   the    head   of   the   corporation    owning   the   Santa 


Ynez  Mission,  he  certainly  has  good  grounds  to  re- 
sent  the  interference  of  outside  parties. 

We  direct  attention  to  Mr.  Phelan  's  article  and 
the  correspondence  accompanying  it,  for  the  reason 
that  the  statements  therein  bear  out  our  con- 
tentions; and  because  those  contentions  are  founded 
upon  fact,  and  therefore  not  the  result  of  prejudice, 
resentment  or  misunderstanding,  we  believe  our 
suggestion  that  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
should  not  financially  aid  in  restoring  or  preserving 
privately  owned  property  is  eminently  proper  and 
worthy  of  adoption  as  the  policy  of  the  Order. 

That  the  Missions  ARE  privately  owned,  is  as- 
sured by  Bishop  Conaty.  who  says:  "The  Missions 
are  held  as  property  of  the  church."  The  church 
is  a  corporation,  and  the  Missions  are  just  as  much 
its  private  property  as  are  the  Bishop's  residence 
or  the  property  of  the  several  Catholic  institutions. 

That  the  Missions  ARE  being  preserved  by  the 
Catholic  Church  only  insofar  as  they  have  a  com- 
mercial value  as  places  of  worship,  and  therefore 
to  be  classed  as  Used  for  "commercial  purposes," 
is  acknowledged  by  Mr.  Phelan,  when  he  says,  "The 
church  *  *     apparently  preserved  *  *  such 

Missions  as  were.  *  *  *  available  for  church 
purposes,"  and  by  Bishop  Conaty,  when  he  says," 
"I  know  I  would  not  under  any  consideration  favor 
their  sale  '  *"  *  where  there  is  any  possibility 
of  the  building  being  used  for  church  purposes. ' ' 

We  believe  that  investigation,  as  well  as  the 
correspondence  referred  to,  will  bear  out  our  con- 
tention that  only  those  Missions  which  are  really 
valuable  to  the  Catholic  Church- for  religious  pur- 
poses have  been  preserved,  and  which  plainly  indi- 
cates that  those  that  have  been  preserved  have  been 
so  from  commercial  rather  than  sentimental  reas- 
ons. We  have  been  informed  that  one  of  the  Mis- 
sions near  Los  Angeles  has  been  leased  for  a  storage 
barn  and  is  in  a  bad  state  of  repair.     It  was  not 


needed  for  religious  work,  hence  it  has  been  al- 
lowed to  go  to  ruin.  If  it  is  intended  to  preserve 
this  link  of  Missions,  therefore,  is  it  not  just  as  com- 
mendable and  necessary  to  preserve  those  not  nec- 
essary for  religious  worship  as  those  that  are? 

Had  all  these  Missions  belonged  to  the  .State,  the 
chain  would  have  been  kept  intact,  and  Native  Sons 
and  others  in  the  various  localities  could  see  to  it 
that  they  were  not  used  for  barns  nor  left  to  go 
to  decay  because  they  were  not  surrounded  by  a 
sufficient  population  to  warrant  their  being  pre- 
served   for   religious   worship. 

It  appeals  to  the  writer  that,  were  Sentiment  the 
real  underlying  motive  in  Mission  restoration  work, 
we  would  be  more  eager  to  protect  and  save  those 
Missions  for  which  no  one  seems  particularly  to 
care,  rather  than  spend  our  money  in  keeping  in 
repair  those  which  have  value  as  meeting  places 
for  religious  worship.  The  fact  that  it  is  admitted 
that  the  Catholic  Church  has  segregated  the  Mis- 
sions into  two  classes — those  valuable  as  places  for 
religious  worship  and  those  valuable  simply  from  a 
sentimental  viewpoint,  and  preserved  only  the 
former — gives  evidence  that  the  church  considers 
more  the  commercial  than  the  sentimental  value  of 
the  Missions,  and  we,  by  giving  financial  support 
to  restore  the  commercially  valuable  Missions,  are 
putting    Commercialism    above    Sentimentalism. 

Mr.  Phelan  *s  article  and  his  correspondence  bear 
out  our  contention  that  the  church,  as  an  incorpo- 
rated body,  is  interested  only  in  the  commercial 
side  of  the  Missions.  No  one  can  honestly  blame 
the  church,  however,  for  this  position,  as  the  Mis- 
sions are  of  no  more  sentimental  value  to  it,  than 
to  all   other  Californians. 

Therefore,  the  State  should  acquire  these  Mis- 
sions, for  Sentimental  reasons,  and  preserve  them  as 
valuable   historic   landmarks. 

We,  as  an  organization,  should  aid  the  State  in 
preserving  Sentiment,  but  should  not  aid  the  church, 
or  any  other  individual  or  corporation,  in  preserv- 
ing commercial  values.

The  San  Francisco  Call  of  August  6th  has  an 
article  concerning  a  proposed  new  organization, 
embracing  within  its  membership  native  Califor- 
nians, which  is  given  the  very  misleading  heading, 
"Native  Sons  Form  Junior  Order."  In  speaking 
of  the  Order  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West, 
the  public  has  oome  to  designate  it  "Native  Sons," 
and  therefore  the  headline  in  question  would  lead 
one  to  believe  that  the  Order  of  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West  was  about  to  form  a  branch,  or 
junior  order. 

As  a  matter  of.  fact,  the  Order  of  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West  has  no  connection  whatever 
with  the  proposed  organization.  The  claims  of  this 
junior  order  for  recognition  by  the  older  Order 
have  been  before  the  former  for  some  years,  but  at 
the  recent  Grand  Parlor  session  in  Santa  Cruz, 
when  the  report  of  the  committee  recommending 
the  endorsement  of  the  junior  order  came  up  for 
action,  the  report  was  almost  unanimously  rejected 
and  the  committee  discharged. 

It  is  stated  that  those  interested  in  this  junior 
organization  have  in  mind  the  incorporation  of  the 
same  under  the  title  "Grand  Parlor  of  the  Junior 
Order  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West." 
If  an  attempt  be  made  to  carry  out  this  purpose, 
it  is  to  be  hoped  that  Frank  0.  Jordan,  Secretary 
of  State,  will  deny  the  incorporation  petition. 
While  there  may  be  no  law  to  prevent  such  incor- 
poration, the  corporation  bureau  of  the  Secretary 
of  State's  office  has  established  a  commendable 
precedent  of  refusing  to  accept  the  incorporation 
papers  of  those  who.  indirectly  at  least,  are  at- 
tempting to  organize  and  do  business  at  the  moral 
expense  of  older  corporations  by  slightly  changing 
the  official   title  of  the  latter. 

The  Order  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West 
has  no  connection  whatever,  directly  or  indirectly, 
with  the  proposed  junior  order,  and  it  ill  becomes 
those  who  are  guiding  the  destinies  of  the  latter 
to  attempt,  by  name  ;it  least,  to  make  it  appear 
as  an  adjunct  of  the  older  organization.  We  have 
no  objection  to  the  organization  of  junior,  or  any 
other,  native  Californians,  provided  those  who  are 


instrumental  in  the  movement  do  not  attempt  to 
deceive  the  public  by  adopting  a  name  almost  iden- 
tical with  the  Order  of  Native  .Sons  of  the  Golden 
West,  and  which,  we  believe  in  this  case  at  least, 
is  done  with  the  intent  of  making  the  unknowing 
public  believe  the  new  order  is  an  adjunct  of  the 
older,  and  for  the  conduct  of  which  we  would  nat- 
urally be  expected  to  stand  sponsor. 

Once  again,  we  warn  the  public  that  the  proposed 
"Junior  Order  of  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West" 
is  in  no  way  allied  with  the  Order  of  Native  Sons 
of  the  Golden  West,  and  we  earnestly  request  the 
Secretary  of  State  to  refuse  permission  to  the  pro- 
posed order  to  incorporate  under  the  name  sug- 
gested, which  is  in  reality  the  name  of  our  Order 
with  the  word  "junior''  prefixed  to  mislead  those 
who   are   unsuspecting.

The  American  people  have  been  muehly  con- 
cerned the  past  month  over  the  announced  inten- 
tion of  a  girl  named  Force  to  become  the  "old 
man's  darling"  of  an  old  man  named  Astor,  and 
the  discussion  pertaining  to  the  same  has  revived 
the  demand  for  uniform  divorce  laws  that  will  ex- 
tend  over  the  entire  country. 

Uniform  divorce  laws  are  no  doubt  much  needed 
in  America,  judging  from  the  records  of  divorce 
courts,  but  it  occurs  to  us  that  what  is  most  needed 
are  uniform  marriage  laws.  How  can  we  reason- 
ably expect  anything  but  numerous  divorce  suits 
as  long  as  our  marriage  laws  are  lax,  and  respect 
for  the  marriage  vow  becoming  less  and  less  every 
day?  The  root  of  the  divorce  evil  is  unquestion- 
ably to  be  found  in  the  marriage  procedure,  and 
if  nation-wide  laws  were  enacted  correcting  this 
procedure  we  would  have  fewer  divorces  and  prac- 
tically no   need  for  uniform   divorce   laws. 

At  present,  the  chief  requisite  to  permit  marriage 
is  the  necessary  small  fee  for  a  license,  the  only 
question  really  involved  in  which  is  the  matter  of 
age.  Were  it  impossible  -for  a  divorced  person 
(unless  such  divorce  be  granted  on  the  ground  of 
adultery)  to  obtain  a  license  to  re-marry,  .  there 
would  be  fewer  divorces,  for  statistics  prove  that 
ninety    per    cent    of    the    divorced   people    re-marry. 


There  should  also  be  required  a  certificate  of  health 
affecting  both  parties,  and  there  should  be  de- 
manded, at  least  six  months  before  the  date  set 
for  the  nuptials,  a  notice  *of  intention  to  be  filed 
with  the  license  clerk  and  by  him  given  at  least 
ten  days'  publication  in  a  newspaper  of  general 
circulation. 

While  these  exactions  may  seem,  at  first  glance, 
unreasonable  and  unnecessary,  it  must  be  conceded, 
after  due  consideration,  that  they  are  just  and 
needful.  The  great  trouble  with  our  present  sys- 
tem is  that  it  is  so  easy  to  procure  a  license  and 
marry,  that  the  contracting  parties  many  times 
enter  into  what  used  to  be  regarded,  and  should 
be  still  looked  upon,  as  "the  holy  state  of  matri- 
mony." with  the  idea  that,  if  married  life  does 
not  prove  as  congenial  as  they  pictured,  either 
can  procure  a  divorce  on  any  of  the  numerous, 
but  largely  nonsensical,  grounds  that  the  courts 
recognize,  and  make  a  second,  a  third,  a  fourth,  or 
fifth  attempt.  Were  the  exactions  mentioned  above 
incorporated  in  the  law-  affecting  the  granting  of 
marriage  licenses,  however,  those  who  contemplate 
marriage  would  carefuny  consider  the  life-bargain 
before  becoming  parties  to  it,  and  would  be  im- 
pressed with  the  knowledge  that  once  that  wedlock 
is  entered  into  they  have  become  parties  to  an 
agreement  which  death  alone  can,  and  should  only, 
terminate. 

As  for  the  Force-Astor  proposed  marriage,  we 
think  the  following  sentiment  of  Father  Evans, 
rector  of  St.  Andrew's  Roman  Catholic  Church, 
New  York,  voices  the  opinion  of  a  great  majority 
of   the   American   people: 

"Such  marriages  as  that  of  John  Jacob 
Astor  and  Miss  Madeline  Force  legalize 
free  love.  Speaking  as  a  man  and  priest. 
I  think  this  elderly  bridegroom  should  be 
strung  up.  When  a  man  of  forty-seven, 
divorced  on  the  grounds  of  his  unfaithful- 
ness only  recently,  marries  a  child  younger 
than  his  own  son,  it  is  a  crime  against 
Nature  as  well  as  Society."

ATTACK"? 


The  Catholic  Tidings,  published  in  Los  Angeles 
:is  the  official  organ  of  the  Diocese  of  Monterey 
and  Los  Angeles,  had  an  editorial  in  its  issue  of 
August  ilili  which  attempted  to  reply  i"  the  edi 
tonal  herein  in  the  Vugust  issue  anent  the  Mis- 
sions, and  m  which  attempt  the  editor  has  evidently 
let  ' '  her  power  of  reasoning  be  stull  ified  by 
bigotry,  and  has  deigned  to  interpret  what  was 
here  said  in  a  meaning  entirely  foreign  to  that 
winch  any  thinking  and  broad  minded  person  would 
be  able,  by  the  broadest  imagination,  to  gel  from 
it.  Listen  to  what  the  Tidings  editor  says,  in  an- 
swer to  our  remarks  pertaining  to  Mission  restora 
i  ion : 

The  w.irk  at  restoration  will  be  cared  for  by  the  Bishop 
i'ii  tire  I)  independent  oi  an)  organization  or  committee. 
The  Native  Sons  in  their  recent  council  determined  to 
help  in  the  work  of  the  restoration,  but  the  conditions 
null-  i  which  the  assistance  was  tendered  were  such  that 
Bishop  Conatj  could  not  accept  the  offer  so  generously 
in.nl.  There  has  been  some  misunderstanding  about  the 
natter  and  some  misrepresentation,  l<ut  the  correspond- 
ence which  the   Bishop  had   with   the  representative  of  the 

Native    Sons    is    in    itself   the   best    answer   to   >< of   the 

imk  i ml  things  which  have  been  said  ag&insl  the  church 
by  the  organ  of  the  Native  Sons.  It  is  quite  evident  that 
the  editor  w  as  misinfoi  mi  d,  and  w  e  are  sorrj  that  he 
should  have  allowed  himself  to  make  the  at t ark  upon  the 
<  hut  fli  without  having  seen  the  correspondence  which 
passed  between  the  repri  eentative  of  the  *  (rder  and 
Bishop  Conaty,  The  editorial  in  The  Qrizzlj  Bear  is  not 
in  the  spirit  of  tin-  Native  Sons,  and  we  are  slow  to 
believe  that  the]  would  endorse  the  sentiments  expressed 
in  it.  It  is  quite  evident  that  the  information  came  from 
an  unfriendly  source.  The  work  done  upon  the  Santa 
Yu<  /.  Mission  during  the  past  few  years  is  an  ample 
guarantee  as  to  the  interesl  of  the  Catholic  Church  in  that 
■  iht  Mission,  and  Bishop  Conaty* s  interest  in  particular, 
foj  whatever  repairs  have  been  made  there,  and  they  have 
been  many,  have  not  bee'n  paid  for  by  public  subscrip- 
tion nor  private  donation,  but  direct  from  the  diocesan 
funds.  The  conditions  for  help  as  laid  down  in  tin1  corre 
spondence  to  Bishop  Conatj  were  such  that  no  self  respect 
ini:  man  in  his  position  could  possibly  accept  them.  Santa 
Ynez  Mission  will  be  restored,  and  we  are  sure  that  no 
one  will  be  more  pleased  with  the  results  than  the  Native 
Sims    of    California. 

The  idea  that  the  article  in  question  was  an 
"attack"  upon  the  '  atholic  Church  is  preposterous, 


and  cannot  be  entertained  for  one  second  by  an) 
one  in 'i  so  narrow  minded  as  to  reason  that  a ny 
criticism  of  the  church  is  to  be  considered  ;m  at 
tack  n j urn  it .  The  article  complained  of  referred 
only  tn  the  churcb  as  an  owner  of  real  estate,  not 
as  a  religious  institution,  and  upon  being  referred 
tn  several  as  devout  Catholics  as  the  Tidings  editor, 
each  one  said  there  was  nothing  therein  that  could, 
in  any  way.  lie  construed  as  "an  attach  upon  the 
church. 

There  lias  been  no  "misunderstanding"  and  no 
"misrepresentation"  as  far  as  we  are  concerned 
Neither    have    we    any    fault    to    find    with    Bishop 

Conaty  for  refusing  to  a ;pt   the  aid  of  the  Native 

Sons,  Nor  would  we  have  found  fault  had  he  re- 
fused  such  aid  if  given  without  any  conditions. 
In  fact,  we  are  indebted  to  the  Bishop  for,  in  his 
action  regarding  Santa  Ynez,  impressing  upon  vis 
that,  in  our  zeal  for  preserving  landmarks,  we  are 
traveling  the  wrong  course — by  attempting  to  tell 
the  owners  of  private  property  how  they  shall  im- 
prove their  property- — and  now  that   he  has  pointed 

OUt    the    error    of    our    ways,    we    should       right       our 

course,  and  do  that  for  which  we  are,  as  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  banded  together,  namely, 
preserve  those  landmarks  which  have  no  other  than 
sentimental  value,  and  which  are  owned  by,  and 
open   to  the  free  use  of,  ALL  The  People. 

The  fact  that  the  Catholic  Church,  which  owns 
Santa  Ynez  mission,  has  kept,  and  will  keep,  it  in 
repair,  is  no  argument  whatever  against  our  posi- 
tion relative  to  privately-owned  landmarks  prop- 
erty, and  is  not  deserving  of  any  special  commenda- 
tion. The  church  is  simply  doing  that  which  any 
other  citizen  or  corporation  would  do — preserving 
its  property  from  the  ravages  of  time  and  the  ele- 
ments. Suppose  Santa  Ynez  were  not  necessary 
for  the  work  of  the  Catholic  Church,  would  the 
church  expend  its  money  in  its  upkeep f  The  his 
tory  of  the  Missions  NOT  necessary  for  church 
work,  we  believe,  answers  that  question  to  the  com- 
plete  satisfaction    of   all.

Captain  Hull  at  first  was  nonplussed  and  then 
told  Sanchez  lie  might  take  them  back.  He  then 
invited  him  into  the  cabin  with  the  officers,  where 
all  smiled  liqnidly  and  audibly,  and  Sanchez,  with 
his  battery  swung  over  his  shoulder,  departed  on

'elected  the  first  State  Senator  from  the  District  of 
Monterey  in    1  849. 


AN  EARL* -DAY  EPISODE  THAT  HAS 

ESCAPED  THE  SO  CALLED  HISTORIANS. 
Major  Edwin  A.  Sherman  of  Oakland,  an  old  Pio- 
neer of  the  State,  who  is  a  recognized  authority  on 
the  early  history  of  California,  has  furnished  The 
drizzly  Lear  the  following  little  episode  which  oc- 
eurred  soon  after  the  battle  of  Santa  Clara,  in  1*47, 
in    which    l lie    Spanish- Calif ornians    under    Sanchez 

wen-  defeated,  surrendered,  delivered  up  their  arms 
and   were  panded  and  then  scattered: 

Word  having  reached  Captain  Hull,  of  the  United 
States  sloop  oi  war  ''Warren"  at  San  Francisco, 
that  Sanchez  had  not  given  up  all  his  arms,  as 
promised,  and  that  In-  still  retained  two  brass 
cannon  secreted  at  his  rancho,  Hull  sent  for  him 
to  come  immediately  to  his  ship  at  San  Francisco. 
He  came,  and  was  reproached  by  Hull  for  not  keep- 
ing good  faith  with  his  parole,  in  not  surrendering 
the  two  pieces  of  artillery,  and  was  given  three 
days  to  go  and  return  with  them,  and  deliver  them 
at    the    landing    and    report    to    him    aboard    the    ship. 

Sanchez  departed,  and  on  t he  third  day  appea red 
at  tin-  landing,  as  directed,  but  there  were  no 
Cannon  in  sight.  He  was  rowed  out  to  the  sliip  and 
went  on  board,  where  Captain  Hull  and  his  officers 
were   "ait  ing   for  him. 

Captain  Hull  sternly  asked  him:  ' '  Mr.  Sanchez, 
.vhere  are  those  t  wo  brass  cannon  yon  promised 
in  deliver  at  the  landing  here  today?" 

Sanchez,  with  great  dignity,  replied :  ' '  Hero

Complete   is   the   life   that   is   spent   in   her  arms! 
No  nook   by  the  sea  shore,  no  valley  or  crest. 
Hut    wears   the  fine   magic  that   brightens   the   West. 

Her  summits,  snow  covered,  her  mountain  lakes  blue. 
Send  waters  of  plenty  down   vales  ever  new; 
The  sunlight   is  dim   in   her  forest  domains 
But  gilds  the  bright   harvests  that  lie  on  the  plains. 

No  grace  is  withholden  that  Nature  can  wear, 
The  clovers  and  poppies  unfold  everywhere; 

The   stranger,   the  alien,  is  glad   in   his   heart. 
And    none   from    her   bounty   will   haste  to   depart. 

I  look   to   the   east   and    I    see   in   the  skies 

The  soft  blue  that  shone  in  my  own  mother's  eyes;

THE  OLD  WOMAN'S  APPLE-CART. 


ANY  AND  MANY  A  TIME,  WHEN 
some  wild  idea  got  talked  about  in 
the  papers,  I  have  heard  my  Pioneer 
Mother  and  Father  say  significantly, 
"They  had  better  not  npset  the  old 
woman's  apple-cart."  Well,  I  grew 
up  on  that  ' '  apple-cart ' '  idea — that 
it  was  better  to  let  well-enough 
alone  and  not  rush  to  every  new 
thing  that  came  along,  just  because 
it  was  new,  but  to  hang  on  to  the 
things  that  were  good,  because  they 
were  already  proved  to  be  good.  Lately  I  have  been 
reminded  of  that  old  apple-cart  a  good  deal,  so  I 
am  going  to  tell  the  story  to  the  readers  of  The 
tirizzly  Bear  Magazine,  so  that  this  good  old  wis- 
dom of  Early  California  may  be  preserved  for  fu- 
ture time: 

Hundreds  of  years  ago,  in  the  reign  of  a  king 
whose  name  has  been  forgotten,  there  was  an  old 
woman  who  was  poor  and  yet  so  good-hearted  that 
she  had  many  friends  who  wanted  to  help  her  to 
get  on  in  the  world.  She  was  a  widow  who  had 
lost  her  only  child  and  was  alone  without  a  rela- 
tive to  care  for  her.  Still,  she  was  always  so  good- 
natured  and  kind-hearted  that  everybody  said  it 
was  a  shame  she  should  have  to  work  so  hard  for 
others  and  get  so  little  in  return.  Everybody 
agreed  she  ought  to  be  in  some  place  of  her  own, 
instead  of  going  from  door  to  door  in  search  of 
work  that  was  so  poorly  paid  for.  So  at  last  a 
man  got  a  bright  inspiration  and  clapped  his  knee 
joyfully  when  he  thought  of  it. 

"I  know,"  said  he;  "we'll  all  put  our  pennies 
together  and  get  the  old  woman  an  apple-cart  and 
set  her   up  in  business." 

As  I  said  before,  she  had  many  friends,  so  it 
was  soon  done,  but  the  question  arose,  where  was 
it  tp  be  located?  That  was  always  the  first  part 
of  the  story,  as  I  remember  it.  Some  wanted  it 
placed  at  the  cross-roads,  some  near  the  hospital, 
others  near  the  church;  but  all  these  ehoiee  spots 
had  already  been  filled,  they  discovered.  The  only 
corner  where  they  could  set  up  the  apple-cart  was 
in  a  rough  quarter  between  the  ' { thieves '  den ' ' 
and  the  gibbet,  which  was  the  house  of  the  hang- 
man. It  seemed  too  bad  to  put  such  a  good,  nice, 
old  woman  as  she  in  such  a  gloomy  part  of  the 
city,  but  the  old  woman  was  all  smiles  and  thanked 
her  benefactors  so  heartily  that  somehow  the  very  . 
looks  of  her  standing  there  in  her  neat  print-gown, 
apron,  shawl  and  cap  made  the  place  seem  brighter! 
From  far  and  near  they  came  to  buy  her  apples, 
and  every  night  she  carried  home  her  pennies 
wrapped  up  in  a  handkerchief  until  her  box  was 
filled.  Then  she  bought  a  tumble-down,  little, 
crooked  house  in  a  poor  alley,  moved  in  and  had  a 
home  of  her  own.  No  queen  was  happier,  and  the 
smiles  on  her  ruddy  face  brought  still  more  cus- 
tomers, until  people  came  for  miles  away  to  buy  of 
her.  Never  a  poor  little  apple  did  she  sell,  but 
gave  such  away  for  nothing  to  children  of  the 
poor  who  flocked  around  her,  and  each  gift  brought 
its   recompense. 

One  day  it  was  known  that  the  queen  herself, 
riding  by,  had  sent  a  page  to  buy  of  the  old  woman, 
who  was  so  honored  she  insisted  on  making  a  gift 
of  the  prettiest  and  reddest  apple  of  all  to  her 
majesty,  with  her  compliments.  That  night  the 
queen  heard  the  king  muttering  in  his  sleep  anx- 
iously, "Where  shall  we  put  the  bank?  We  must 
build  a  magnificent  bank  to  hold  our  money,  but 
where  shall  we  put  it?"  The  queen  leaned  over 
and    replied,    "Near    the    old    woman's    apple-cart, 


nearthe  old  woman's  apple-cart!"  When  the  king 
waked  he  called  his  council  together  and  informed 
them  he  had  been  told  in  a  dream  to  build  the  bank 
near   the   old   woman 's   apple-cart. 

1 '  Which  old  woman 's  apple-cart  ? ' '  asked  the 
prime  minister.  Now,  everyone  knew  of  the  one 
who  had  presented  an  apple  to  the  queen  with  her 
compliments,  so  they  asked  her  advice,  "Of 
course,"  said  she,  promptly,  "such  a  good  woman 
as  that  ought  to  be  recognized  in  some  way." 

"But  her  apple-cart  is  located  between  the 
thieves'  den  and  gibbet,  which  is  the  house  of  the 
hangman!  " 

' '  Certainly, ' '  said  the  queen,  who  was  a  clever 
person  in  spite  of  the  crown  on  her  head,  "but 
haven't  you  noticed  that  all  the  thieves  are  gone 
away  and   nobody   gets   hanged   there   any  more?" 

"Sure  enough,"  exclaimed  the  prime  minister, 
feeling  in  all  his  pockets  for  his  spectacles,  which 
were  on  top  of  his  head,  for  he  could  never  see  to 
think  till  he  had  them  across  his  nose.  "I  hadn't 
thought  of  that!" 

"Oh,  the  queen  knows  a  few  things  we  don't," 
said  his  majesty  cheerfully,  for  he  was  a  great  be- 
liever in  dreams,  and  so  pleased  things  were  com- 
ing to  pass  as  suggested  in  his  dream. 

Well,  they  were  very  careful  not  to  disturb  the 
old  apple  woman,  who  went  on  selling  her  apples 
just  the  same,  only  more  so,  while  they  bought  up 
all  the  alleys  thereabouts — and  her  little  tumble- 
down house  amongst  the  others — for  thousands  of 
pounds,  and  built  a  splendid  bank  out  of  marble 
and  stone  to  last  five  hundred  years.  The  old 
woman  put  her  money  into  the  bank  and  went  on 
selling  apples  just  the  same,  only  more  so,  as  be- 
fore, and  went  on  giving  away  her  smaller  apples 
to  the  children  of  the  poor,  who  loved  her  and 
listened  to  her  counsel.  It  became  the  very  center 
of  the  city  there,  and  people  from  all  the  nations 
came  to  put  their  money  into  that  bank.  The  very 
sight  of  the  good  old  woman  there  in  front  of  the 
bank,  so  ruddy  and  contented,  was  enough  to  give 
them  confidence  and  make  them  entrust  their  thous- 
ands of  pounds  to  such  an  institution  as  that.  And 
the  king  and  the  country  flourished,  and  all  were 
prosperous   and   happy. 

However,  it  was  only  the  queen  who  knew  the 
■true  value  of  the  old  woman  standing  there  day 
by  day,  selling  her  nice  red  apples.  When  the  day 
came  that  the  good  queen  died,  the  men  forgot 
about  the  old  woman  and  how  she  had  cleared  up 
the  thieves'  den  and  the  gibbet  where  the  hang- 
man had  his  house  just  by  living  in  that  quarter. 
She  went  on  just  the  same  by  force  of  her  own 
strength  and  because  she  had  been  a  fixture  there 
so  long.  But  then  the  king  died,  and  a  new  king 
came  to  rule  over  the  kingdom,  with  a  new  queen, 
and  they  had  never  heard  of  the  apple  woman  at 
all.  Still  she  went  on  just  the  same,  and  things 
prospered  because  the  people  of  all  nations  con- 
tinued to  have  confidence  in  the  great  marble  bank, 
and  the  new  king  thought  it  was  he  who  was  doing 
everything  himself.  And  he  walked  haughtily  with 
his  crown  on  the  back  of  his  head,  his  scepter  and 
orb  before  him,  and  his  mantle  of  red  velvet  and 
ermine  trailing  after  him  held  up  by  pages;  and 
the  new  queen  the  same,  all  full  of  frills  prettily 
starched  and  ironed  and  goffered,  and  everyone 
bowed  before  them  and  thought  how  grand  they 
were. 

But  an  awful  thing  happened  in  the  midst  of  all 
this  splendid  performance.  Some  rude  sailors  from 
a  man-of-war  of  another  nation  began  to  make  fun 
of  the  architecture  of  the  bank  which  had  been 
built  to  last  five  hundred  years.  Then  some  rude 
soldiers,  also  from  another  nation,  pushed  through 
the  crowd  to  take  a  look  for  themselves,  and  with 
great  violence  tney  ran  against  the  apple-cart  of 
the  old  woman  standing  there.  They  jostled  her 
out  of  the  way  and  upset  the  apple-cart'.  All  over 
the  ground  flew  the  red  apples,  into  the  dust,  and 
were  trampled  under  foot  by  everybody,  or  taken 
up  by  these  rude  soldiers  and  sailors  and  hurled  at 
the  crowds  around  them  till  there  was  a  terrible 
tumult  and  fighting  everywhere.  Women  and  child- 
ren were  crippled,  men  were  cut  by  knives  and 
cutlasses,  guns  began  to  crack  and  cannon  to  boom. 

The  enemy  swarmed  in  suddenly  and  over- 
whelmed everything;  they  broke  into  the  splendid 
bank  and  bore  away  the  treasure,  and  then  the 
soldiers  and  sailors,  who  were  only  pirates  after 
all,  fought  against  each  other  in  a  hand-to-hand 
conflict,  to  carry  off  the  gold  and  silver  and  jewels, 
each  for  himself.  The  streets  ran  blood,  houses 
were  burned,  and  amid  the  conflagration  everybody 
ran  to  the  open  country  to  escape  with  their  lives. 
Among  these  were  the  poor  king  and  queen  and 
the  pages,  limp  and  starchless  now,  hid  under  the 
hedges  and  trying  not  to  be  seen  by  making  them- 


selves as  small  as  possible.  Night  came  on  blackly, 
with  a  heavy  rain.  Little  by  little  the  awful  din 
died  away.  The  fires  became  extinguished,  and  the 
soldiers  and  sailors  had  killed  each  other,  all  save 
a  few,  who  had  escaped,  lame  and  halt  and  blind, 
to  their  own  lands. 

The  prime  minister  came  out  from  behind  the 
hedge  and  beat  on  his  kettle  drum  to  call  all  the 
people  together,  "How  did  all  this  happen?"  he 
asked,  as  each  one  appeared  like  gray  shadows  from 
the   "land   of   fear." 

"Well,  the  old  woman's  apple-cart  got  upset," 
said  one,  and  another,  and  another,  until  a  hundred 
had  said  it.  "Who  is  this  old  apple  woman?" 
asked  he  again,  for  he  was  new  to  the  business, 
having  come  in  with  the  last  king,  who  knew 
nothing.  "Oh,  she  is  the  one  who  cleared  up  the 
thieves'  den  and  the  gibbet,  which  was  the  house 
of  the  hangman,  so  that  all  went  away  and  nobody 
got  hanged  there  any  more  and  they  built  the  bank 
just  behind  her  apple-cart  because  she  made  things 
seem  so  safe  and  comfortable. ' '  They  would 
have  been  talking  till  now,  only  the  prime  minister 
had  found  his  spectacles  and  put  them  on,  and  he 
could  guess  the  rest.  He  saw  that  by  keeping  the 
old  woman  safe  they  could  keep  the  bank  safe  and 
the  kingdom  safe.  So  he  asked,  "Where  is  the  old 
woman   now?" 

Nobody  knew.  So  they  formed  in  a  procession, 
with  the  king  and  the  queen  in  the  center  for  safe- 
guarding. Did  you  ever  play  chess?  If  so,  you 
know  how  important  it  is  to  keep  them  protected, 
for  you  lose  the  game  if  the  other  side  captures 
them.  So  down  they  went  cautiously,  looking  to 
the  right  and  the  left,  to  the  center  of  the  half- 
ruined  city,  and  found  things  pretty  bad,  it  must 
be  confessed.  Heaps  of  ashes  lay  where  once  had 
stood  stately  buildings,  and  dead  pirates  and  sol- 
diers and  citizens  lay  in  the  streets.  Among  them 
were  women  and  children  who  had  been  crushed 
under  foot.  But  on  they  went,  bravely,  to  the  bank. 
They  had  to  know  the  worst.  Some  parts  of  it 
were  broken  by  cannon  balls,  but  the  foundation 
had  been  so  solidly  and  honestly  built  that  it  still 
stood.  It  would  not  be  difficult  to  restore  it  once 
more.  But  what  they  all  wanted  to  find,  most  of 
all,  was  the  apple-cart.  Sure  enough,  after  clean- 
ing up  some  of  the  rubbish,  there  they  found  it, 
upside   down. 

They  gave  a  cheer  that  made  all  feel  good.  But 
where  was  the  good  old  woman  who  had  sold  her 
apples  by  that  cart  for  so  many  years  that  no  one 
could  remember  when  she  did  not- stand  there? 
What  was  the  good  of  finding  the  cart,  if  they 
could  not  find  the  old  woman?  With  a  united  effort 
the  men  seized  hold  and  righted  the  eart  and  there, 
safe  and  sound,  under  it,  was  the  dear  old  woman 
who  had  hid  there  and  had  been  miraculously  pre- 
served amongst  all  this  terrible  conflict.  Then 
cheers  rent  the  air  and  everybody  rejoiced.  With 
the  old  woman  and  her  apple-cart  safe,  they  could 
begin  all  over  again  and  have  things  as  they  were 
in  short  order. 

The  next  morning  she  was  selling  her  red  apples, 
the  bank  had  started  up  again  while  the  streets 
were  being  cleaned,  the  king  and  queen  were  safe 
on  their  thrones,  and  the  prime  minister  was  busy 
writing  letters  to  those  other  nations,  enclosing 
bills  of  damages  owing  to  him  because  their  pirates 
and  soldiers  had  behaved  so  rudely  in  this  city. 
And  those  other  nations  had  to  send  the  king  large 
sums  of  money  because  the  bank  was  all  right 
again,  as  any  one  could  see,  for  was  not  the  old 
apple-woman  there  in  front,  selling  her  apples  the 
same  as  usual,  and  how  could  that  be  unless  every- 
thing was  in  good  running  order?  And  every  one 
was  buying  apples  of  her,  more  than  ever,  to  show 
how  safe  the  government  was,  and  she  was  smiling 
and  contented,  but  a  little  paler  than  before,  poor 
thing, — for  she  had  been  terribly  scared,  of  course, 
though  she  pretended  she  had  not  minded  it  in  the 
least. 

And  so  they  made  a  cast-iron  law  after  that,  and 
put  it  up  in  big  letters  everywhere,  for  everyone 
to  see,  explaining  that  the  apple-eart  was  sacred 
and  not  to  be  touched.  Also,  there  was  a  guard 
of  soldiers  kept  standing  around  the  good  old  apple 
woman  to  see  that  no  one  should  ever  jostle  her 
again. 

Then  the  prime  minister  had  her  story  written 
in  letters  of  gold,  for  it  was  discovered  finally,  after 
all  the  professors  and  statesmen  and  wise  men  had 
studied  it  over,  that  it  was  the  kindness  of  heart 
of  the  old  apple  woman  that  had  made  that  spot 
and  the  apple-cart  sacred.  Before  she  had  come 
there  to  live,  the  children  of  the  poor  had  been 
famished   and   were   as   fierce    as   wolves.      So   they

A  LOW-COST  BUT  ROOMY  RESIDEMQ 

(Drawing  and  Description  by  Eisen  &  Sen,  Architects,  Los  Angeles,  California.)    ' 


v    shown    above,    represents   an    eight-room  residence,   which  _eai 
floor   contains  a   large   living-room,    reception   hall,   dining-room, 


be  built  for  $3,500. 
and    kitchen.     The   second 


The    picl 

The    first 
floor  has  four  bed-rooms  and  a  bath, 

The  outside  walls  are  covered  with  shingles,  while  the  base  course  ami  columns  are  plaster.  The 
roof  is  of  white  asbestos  roofing.  The  combination  of  the  light  plaster  and  white  roofing  make  an  effect 
that   is  attractive,  as  well  as  giving  durability  to  the  structure. 

The  living-room  and  hall  are  finished  in  California  redwood3  while  all  bedrooms  and  the  dining- 
room  are  enameled  in  white. 

California  redwood,  as  a  finishing  wood  inside  the  modern  house,  is  one  of  the  most,  beautiful  and 
attractive  of  woods.  It  lends  itself  either  to  a  natural  or  stained  and  polished  finish  equally  well.  Hard 
wood   flooring   is   run   throughout   the   first-floor   rooms   of   the   house. 


N.S.G.W.  Building's  Big  Steel  Truss. 
The  steel  frame  of  the  N.S.G.W.  building  in  San 
Francisco,  which  has  now  been  erected,  contains 
over  730  tons  of  structural  steel  and  was  entirely 
erected  by  the  Pacific  Rolling  Mill  Co.  of  San 
Francisco  in  the  remarkably  short  period  of  125 
days.  As  mentioned  in  a  previous  issue,  this  build- 
ing contains  the  largest  steel  truss  on  the  Pacific 
I  !oast,  weighing  fitly  I  \\  0  and  one-half  tons.  The 
Pacific  Rolling  Mills  is  the  pioneer  structural  steel 
plant  on  the  Coast,  dating  back  to  1S63.  The  com- 
pany is  thoroughly  a  native  son,  management  in 
eluded,  and  is  most  completely  equipped  for  all 
branches  of  structural  steel  work. 


Plan  Reorganization  and  Banquet. 
San  Luis  Obispo — Los  Osos  Parlor,  No.  61,  N.S. 
Gr.W.,  is  making  extensive  plans  for  a  big  meeting, 
probably  September  llth,  to  include  a  general  re- 
organization of  the  Parlor  and  banquet.  A  class 
of  several  candidates  lias  already  been  secured  for 
initiation,  through  the  efforts  of  Grand  Organizer 
F.  A.  Duggan,  and  several  others  are  expected  to 
be  added  to  the  list  before  the  date  set  for  the 
festivities.  It  is  expected  that  Grand  President 
H.  c.  Lichtenberger  of  Los  Angeles  and  Grand 
Trustee  Robert  M.  Clarke  of  Ventura  will  be  pres- 
ent  as  guests   of   honor.

SECRETARY    OF    STATE 

RECOGNIZES    SIMILARITY    OF    NAMES. 
The    following    Associated    Press    dispatch,    sent 

out  from  Sacramento,  will  be  of  interest  to  mem- 
bers of    the    Native    Sons   of    the    Golden    West: 

Sacramento.    A-Ugual     21. — H.     C.     Lichtenberger, 

Grand  President  of  the  Grand  Parlor  of  Native 
Sons  of  the  Golden  West,  has  written  to  Secretary 
of  State  Jordan  protesting  against  Mr.  Jordan  ac- 
cepting the  articles  of  incorporation  of  the  junior 
order  of  the  native  sons  of  the  golden  west.  He 
says  that  the  articles  are  soon  to  be  presented,  but 
that  the  Grand  Parlor  has  refused  to  sanction  tin- 
junior  order. 

Mr.  Jordan  answers  that  he  will  refuse  the  ar- 
ticles on  account  of  similarity  of  names  in  the  cor- 
porations, which  is  prohibited  by  law,  and  in  view 
of  the  protest,  and  thus  put  the  matter  up  to  the 
junior  order,  which  may  go  to  the  courts  for  fur- 
ther   action. 


The  facts  in  the  case  above  referred  to  are  fully 
set  forth  on  the  editorial  page  of  this  number. 
which  was  in  press  prior  to  the  sending  out  of  the 
press  dispatch.  The  Grand  President,  on  hearing 
nf  the  intention  of  the  junior  order  to  incorporate 
under  the  name  suggested,  immediately  sent  a  let- 
ter of  protest  to  the  Secretary  of  State  on  account 
of  the  similarity  of  names,  and  Mr.  Jordan's  let- 
ter, agreeing  to  refuse  incorporation  under  the 
name  proposed  was  received  by  the  Grand  Presi- 
dent,   August    22nd. — Editor,  i

THE      GRIZZLY       BEAR 


September,    1 9 1 


ADMISSION  DAY  III  CELEBRATION 


HE  EYES  or  ALL  NATIVE  SONS 
and  Native  Daughters  are  now 
turned  inward  Santa  Rosa,  where 
They  will  assemble  in  large  numbers 
to  take  part  in  tbe  celebration  of 
Admission  Dav.  arranged  by  Santa 
Rosa  Parlor,  No.  28,  N.S.G.W.,  and 
the  citizens  of  that  city  for  the  8th, 
9th  and  10th  of  September.  That 
everyone  will  have  a  glorious  time, 
goes  without  saying  for  the  open- 
handed  hospitality  of  the  Santa 
Rosans  has  been  thoroughly  tested  on  future  oc- 
casions, and  not  found  wanting. 

The  business  men  of  Santa  Rosa  are  lending 
everv  aid  toward  making  the  celebration  a  grand 
success,  and  many  of  their  places  of  business  will 
be  decorated  with  the  official  colors  adopted  by  the 
committee — red,  white,  blue  and  gold.  In  street 
decorations,  the  plans  being  worked  out  by  the 
committee  involve  something  entirely  new  and 
novel.  The  Board  of  Supervisors  of  Sonoma 
County  has  made  an  appropriation  for  the  installa- 
tion of  1300  incandescent  lights  to  outline  the 
handsome  new  Court  House  in  the  City  of  Roses, 
and  this  will  add  much  splendor  to  the  general 
effect  of  the  city's  decorations.  Mark  McConnell 
has  the  contract  for  this  work. 

The  accommodations  and  receptions  committees 
are  working  night  and  day  to  secure  rooms  for  the 
thousands  of  visitors,  and  to  properly  receive  the 
guests  upon  arrival,  and  they  report  all  matters  en- 
trusted to  them  well  in  hand.  Secretary  W.  W. 
Skaggs  of  the  general  committee,  who  is  working 
night  and  day  for  the  success  of  thS  celebration, 
says  the  crowd  will  be  enormous,  and  reports  from 
various  Parlors  warrant  his  assertion.  Practically 
every    Parlor    in    San    Francisco,     Alameda,     Saera- 


THOS.  J.  PROCTOR, 
President  of  Santa  Rosa  Parlor 


inento,  San  Joaquin,  Santa  Clara,  Sonoma,  Solano, 
Napa  and  Mendocino  Counties  has  made  arrange- 
ments to  be  at  Santa  Rosa,  and  these  will  be  added 
to  by  the  Parlors  in  other  sections  of  the  State. 

The  railroads  touching  Santa  Rosa  have  made 
satisfactory  rates,  both  for  excursion  tickets  and 
special  trains,  and  many  delegations  will  avail 
themselves  of  the  latter,  so  great  has  been  the  de- 
mand for  tickets  to  the  celebration  city. 
Many  Parlors  Will  Participate. 

Stockton  Parlor  will  leave  the  San  Joaquin  me- 
tropolis by  Southern  Pacific  special  125  strong, 
September  Sth,  and  arrive  in  Santa  Rosa  that 
evening.  The  Parlor  drum  corps  of  twenty  mem- 
bers, attired  in  red  coats  with  black  facing,  blue 
trousers  with  red  seam  band,  and  blue  caps  with 
the  insignia  "N.S.G-.W.  No.  7,"  will  accompany  the 
delegation.  The  members  of  the  Parlor  will  be 
uniformed  in  light  crush  hats,  white  negligee  shirts, 
red  four-in-hand  ties,  white  serge  trousers  with 
black  hair  stripe,  and  black  belt.  Stockton  is  after 
the  State  celebration  for  next  year,  and  desires  to 
make  a  good  showing  at  Santa  Rosa  this  year,  so 
as  to  be  able  to  make  a  strong  claim  for  the  honor, 
at   the  next  meeting  of  the  Grand  Parlor. 

Sacramento  County  Parlors  will  journey  by 
Southern  Pacific  special,  leaving  the  Capital  City 
the    morning    of   the    0th    at    6:45,    and    arriving    in

Santa  Rosa  at  10  o  'clock.  They  are  making  great 
preparations  for  this  year's  celebration,  and  will 
take  part  in  the  Admission  Day  parade,  as  well  as 
maintain  headquarters  for  the  reception  of  friends. 
These  Parlors  will  be  neatly  uniformed,  escorted 
by  a  band,  and  accompanied  by  the  Native  Daugh- 
ters. It  is  also  probable  that  Parlors  from  Amador, 
Placer,  El  Dorado  and  Nevada  Counties  will  join  in 
this    excursion. 

The  Alameda  County  Parlors  have  formed  a  joint 
committee   and    made    arrangements   for    their    con-

trains  over  the  Southern  Pacific.  The  special  will 
leave  the  Sixteenth-street  (Oakland)  station  at 
8:20  the  night  of  September  Sth,  arriving  in  Santa 
Rosa  the  same  night.  These  Parlors  will  also  pa- 
rade prior  to  their  departure  from  Oakland,  and 
will  make  an  attractive  appearauee  in  the  Admis- 
sion day  parade.  The  Parlors  constituting  the  Ala- 
meda County  division  include:  Alameda,  No.  47; 
Oakland,  No.  50;  Eden,  No.  113;  Wisteria.  No.  127;

Niles,  No.  250. 

The  San  Jose  Parlors,  both  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters,  are  planning  to  invade  Santa 
Rosa  300  strong,  in  automobiles.  They  will  leave 
the  Garden  City  on  the  afternoon  of  the  Sth,  and 
form  an  automobile  division  in  the  parade  the  fol- 


lowing day.  The  distance  to  be  traveled  between 
the  two  cities  mill  aggregate  200  miles,  and  while 
the  undertaking  is  a  big  one,  on  account  of  the 
number  of  machines  necessarily  required,  the  com- 
mittee in  charge  of  the  matter  has  assured  the 
Santa  Rosa  committee  that  the  plan  will  be  car- 
ried out.  This  division  will  be  one  of  the  features 
of  the  big  Admission  Day  parade. 

Wo  Inflated  Prices  at  Santa  Rosa. 

Vallejo  Parlor  has  arranged  for  a  Southern  Pa- 
cific special  on  the  morning  of  the  Ninth.  Neat 
uniforms  have  been  secured  by  the  members,  and 
a  band  of  twenty  pieces,  as  well  as  a  drum  corps, 
will  accompany  the  delegation.  The  Napa  Valley 
Parlors  will  go  by  special  trains  both  the  evening 
of  the  8th  and  the  morning  of  the  9th. 

Each  delegation,  as  it  arrives  in  Santa  Rosa,  will 
be  met  by  the  Santa  Rosa  reception  committee  and 
escorted  to  headquarters,  and  individual  members, 
not  already  provided  for,  will  be  secured  accommo- 
dations. The  committee  desires  it  understood  that, 
while  it  is  expected  Santa  Rosa  will  be  called  upon 
to  take  care  of  tue  largest  crowd  ever  within  its 
confines,  the  city  is  able  to  give  good  accommo- 
dations to  all,  and  at  prices  that  have  not  been  in- 
flated on  account  of  the  expected  throng. 

All  the  Sonoma  County  Parlors,  including  Peta- 
luma  No.  27,  Santa  Rosa  No.  28.  Healdsburg  No. 
68,  Glen  Ellen  No.  102,  Sonoma  No.  Ill  and  Sebas- 
topol  No.  143,  will  be  embraced  in  one  division,  and 
head  the  monster  Admission  Day  parade,  the 
morning  of  the  Ninth.  All  the  members  will  be 
attired  in  handsome  white  and  gold  uniforms,  made 
up  of  white  duck  suit,  white  shirt  and  collar,  gold 
tie,  white  felt  hat  with  gold  band,  gold  sash,  tan 
shoes,  and  the  Petaluma  and  Healdsburg  bands  will 
furnish   the  marching  music. 

Grand  Marshal  J.  C.  Smith  had  not  completed 
his  list  of  aides  nor  the  parade  formation  up  to 
the  time  of  The  Grizzly  Bear's  going  to  press,  but 
realizing  that  the  success  of  the  Admission  Day 
parade,  which  is  the  chief  feature  of  these  annual 
celebrations,  depends  largely  upon  his  proper 
handling  of  the  pageant,  is  giving  the  matter  his 
close  attention,  and  has  no  fear  for  the  success  of 
the  parade  or  the  complete  satisfaction  of  all  par- 
ticipants. 


SAN  FRANCISCO  PARLORS  ACTIVE. 
Arranging  for  Big  Night  Parade,  Prior  to  Departure 
for  Santa  Rosa,  Evening  of  September  Sth.

AUTO  RACES  AND  AERIAL  FLIGHTS 

FOR  AFTERNOON  AMUSEMENTS. 

The  committee  of  arrangement  has  completed 
plans  for  some  first-class  automobile  races  on  the 
afternoons  of  September  9th  and  10th.  They  are 
to  be  given  under  the  sanction  of  the  American 
Automobile  Association,  suitable  arrangements  hav- 
ing been   made   to   that   effect. 

The  Santa  Rosa  race  track  has  always  been  con- 
sidered the  fastest  mile  dirt  track  on  the  Pacific 
Cnast,  both  for  horse  or  automobile  racing,  and  two 
years  ago  was  banked  on  the  turns  at  a  cost  of  sev- 
eral thousand  dollars,  especially  for  auto  racing, 
and  will  be  put  in  the  best  possible  condition  for 
tli  is    occasion.  ■ 


There  will  he  live  automobile  and  one  motor-cycle 
i; acfa  afternoon.     The  committee  in  charge  also 

contemplates  a    burlesque    race    between    some    of    (lie 

leading  business  and  professional  men  of  Santa 
Rosa,  and  if  successful  in  pulling  off  the  event,  will 
certainly   create    no   end   of   amusement. 

The   prizes   will   be   cash,   consisting   of   fifty    per 
cent   of   the  gross  gate   receipts,   divided   into   first, 

second,    and    third    money,    for    tlie    automobiles,    and

cycles. 

As  an  additional  feature  for  the  races,  the  com- 
mittee has  arranged  to  have  Fred  Wiseman,  the 
s ma  County  aviator,  make  several  flights.  Wise- 
man is  a  Santa  Kosa  boy  and  uses  a  machine  of  his 
own  manufacture,  and  has  made  manv  successful 
flights.

THE  CHTY  OF  EOSES 

AMD  FERTILE 
SOMOMA  COUNTY 

(By  EDWAKD  H.  BROWN,  Secretary  of  the  Cham- 
ber of  Commerce,  Santa  Rosa,  California.) 

ANTA  ROSA,  THE  CITY  OF  ROSES, 
the  home  of  Luther  Burbank,  is  cen- 
trally located  in  the  County  of  So- 
noma, a  county  that  is  au  empire  in 
itself.  The  assertion  has  been  made, 
that  if  Sonoma  County  had  the 
■walls  of  P-ekin,  China,  around  her, 
she  could  stand  upon  her  own  re- 
sources. This  county  produces  ev- 
erything in  the  horticultural  and  ag- 
ricultural lines  that  are  produced 
from  the  Atlantic  to  the  Pacific 
Coast,  The  leaders  in  the  county,  however,  are 
hops,  apples,  poultry,  berries,  grapes  and  dairying. 
But  plums,  prunes,  cherries,  walnuts,  and  many 
other  varieties  of  fruits  and  nuts,  are  raised  at  a 
profit. 

Santa  Rosa,  the  county  seat,  has  a  population  of 
about  12,000  inhabitants,  and  boasts  a  modern 
water  system.  The  city  has  a  general  slope  of 
about  two  per  cent,  which  assists  the  splendid  sewer 
.  system.  Electricity  and  gas  are  used  for  fuel  and 
illumination.  The  fire  insurance  rates  are  lower 
than  in  the  majority  of  cities,  on  account  of  an 
efficient  fire  department  and  the  generally  excel- 
lent construction  of  buildings,  the  city  having  to 
its  credit  more  steel  frame  and  reinforced  concrete 
buildings  than  any  other  city  of  like  population 
in  the  United  States.  Santa  Rosa  is  fifty-two  miles 
from  San  Francisco,  the  metropolis  of  all  North- 
ern California,  and  is  recognized  as  the  metropolis 
of  the  north-of-bay-counties  cities.  The  Northwest- 
ern Pacific,  the  Southern  Pacific  and  the  Petaluma 
and  Santa  Rosa  electric  line  run  into  Santa  Rosa. 
The  shipping  facilities  are  splendid,  and  producers 
can  always  find  a  ready  cash  market  for 
their  products.  Santa  Rosa  is  becoming  a  great 
poultry  center,  the  output  of  eggs  this  year  being 
double  the  output  of  last  year. 

In  the  vicinity  of  Santa  Rosa,  are  to  be  found 
the  famous  Petrified  Forest  of  Northern  California, 
the  Geysers  and  the  Russian  River,  which  is  visited 
yearly  by  a  hundred  thousand  people.  The  Sonoma 
Valley  summer  resorts  hereabouts  are  crowded  to 
their  capacity  during  the  summer  seasons,  and  there 
are  many  other  places  that  attract  thousands  and 
thousands  of  people  from  all  over  the  northern  part 
of  the  State.  This  beautiful  city  holds  annually  a 
Rose  Carnival,  which  is  participated  in  by  people 
from  all  over  the  district.  The  carnivals  are  gen- 
erally held  during  the  second  week  of  May.  In 
fact,  the  County  of  Sonoma  is  known  for  the  many 
festivities  that  are  held  in  various  sections  during 
the  year. 

County's  Important  Cities. 
After  this  carnival,  comes  the  Gravenstein  Apple 
Show,  which  is  held  in  Sebastopol.  This  show  has 
never  been  surpassed  in  the  history  of  the  world. 
The  first  show  was  held  in  1910  and  had  an  attend- 
ance of  over  21,000  paid  admissions.  The  show  of 
1911  will  be  patronized  by  no  less  than  50,000  peo- 
ple. Sebastopol  is  located  in  the  Gold  Ridge  dis- 
trict, seven  miles  from  Santa  Rosa,  on  the  North- 
western Pacific,  and  the  Petaluma  and  Santa  Rosa 
electric  line.  It  is  surrounded  by  orchards  galore, 
where  are  raised  most  every  variety  of  apples  pro- 
duced in  the  United  States,  but  the  boast  of  all  is 
.  the  Gravenstein  apple.  It  is  an  apple  that  matures 
about  July  15th,  is  a  splendid  shipper,  and  always 
brings  the   highest  market  price.

Healdsburg  and  Montrio  hold  their  water  carni- 
vals annually.  Petaluma,  the  biggest  poultry  cen- 
ter in  California,  holds  her  poultry  show  annually. 
That  city  derives  a  revenue  of  over  $6,000,000  an- 
nually from  her  poultry,  <  lloverdale,  the  most 
northern  city  in  the  county,  holds  annually  the  cit- 
rus fair.  This  is  always  held  in  the  mouth  of  Feb- 
ruary, and  generally  closes  on   Washington's   Birth 

day. 

Sonoma  County  has  over  fifty  miles  of  coast, 
along  which  are  many  largo  dairy  ranches.  The 
City  i>f  Sonoma,  and  vicinity,  comprise  one  of  the 
garden  spots  of  California.  It  was  in  this  city  that 
the  Bear  Flag  was  first  raised  in  the  State  of  Cali- 
fornia, and  there  are  to  be  seen  many  relics  of  the 
Pioneers'  work  in  the  making  of  history  for  the  Pa- 
cific Coast.  All  of  these  beautiful  districts — east, 
west,  north  and  south — throughout  the  county  are 
easily  accessible  to  one  from  Santa  Kosa. 

Opportunities  in  Sonoma  < '« unity  are  just  com- 
mencing. There  are  many  large  tracts  of  land  be- 
ing iiit  up  into  small  farms,  and  hundreds  of  fam 
ilies  from  t lie  East  and  other  districts  are  coming 
into  the  county  and  taking  advantage  of  the  oppor- 
tunities here  offered.  Land  may  be  had  at  reason 
able  prices,  and  on  agreeable  terms.  This  is  a  county 
where  people  are  nut   measured  by  the  wealth  they 


possess,  but  by  the  good  they  can  do,  and  try  to 
do.  for  their  district.  Its  inhabitants  are  a  hospitable 
class  of  people,  and  one  will  find  everywhere  ex- 
tended a  cordial  welcome.  The  county  lias  a  popu- 
lation at  the  present  time  of  over  50,000  people. 
By  the  time  of  the  next  census,  an  increase  of  fifty 
per  cent  is  expected;  therefore,  anyone  seeking  a 
congenial  and  ideal  place  to  live,  and  one  in  which 
opportunities  arc  new  and  abundant,  is  cordially 
invited  to  eome  and  settle  within  the  fertile  Sonoma 
County,  and  be  one  of  its  proud  citizens.

said,  will  be  an  important  conflict 
when  fully  under  way.  But  the 
most  vital  influence  that  was  made 
manifest  by  the  small  attendance  is 
the  inertia  of  the  great  number  of  small  producers 
who  ought  to  be  in  the  thick  of  the  battle  being 
waged  by  this  association.  The  leading  members, 
like  Mr.  Savage,  the  Messrs.  Shubert,  Mr.  Brady 
and  the  other  wholesale  manufacturers  of  amuse- 
ments, are  quite  capable  of  defending  themselves, 
for  their  dealings  are  large,  and  if  they  set  out  to 
make  reprisals  upon  those  who  threaten  them  it  will 
be  easy  to  deliver  telling  blows. 

For  instance,  if  the  three  managements  named 
were  to  find  that  by  the  installation  of  organs  they 
could  materially  reduce  the  number  of  men  in 
every  one  of  their  orchestras,  the  Musical  Union 
would  have  a  great  many  of  its  members  on  the  un- 
employed list.  It  is  known  positively  that  such  a 
plan  is  feasible,  and  it  is  believed  that  through  a 
new  invention  orchestras  can  be  done  away  with 
outright,    even    for    grand    opera. 

This  is  the  sort  of  thing  that  the  managers  of 
numerous  enterprises  and  large  resources  can  deal 
in  while  the  minnows  in  the  pool  cannot.  Such  be- 
ing the  case,  one  naturally  would  look  for  the 
minnows  to  range  up  alongside  the  big  fish,  and  it 
is  a  startling  fact  that  they  are  not  there.  The 
matter  of  the  musicians  by  no  means  covers  the 
list  of  helpful  things  to  be  derived  from  such  unity 
of  action  as  the  producing  managers'  combine 
offers  freely  to  all  who  join.  There  are  innumer- 
able directions  in  which  the  weaklings  need  the  help 
of  the  giants  and  can  get  it  for  the  asking — or, 
rather,  by  merely  rising  out  of  their  attitude  of 
stupid  neglect  and  showing  some  remote  signs  of 
interest.  If  they  don't  do  it,  they  will  have  to 
settle  for  themselves  sooner  or  later.  If  they  do 
they  will  secure  protection  for  their  own  ventures 
and  will  be  able  without  effort  on  their  part  to 
supply  the  valuable  element  of  numerical  strength 
to  a  movement  of  the  utmost  importance  to  every 
producer,  writer,  composer,  theater  owner  or  lessee 
and  everybody  else  who  is  interested  directly  or 
distantly  in  the  production  of  plays. 

At  the  election  of  officers,  William  A.  Brady  was 
re-elected  president;  Hollis  E.  Cooley,  secretary; 
Winthrop  Ames,  Jules  Murry,  Harry  Doel  Parker, 
James  K.  Hackett  and  Gus  Hill,  directors;  Henry 
C.  Miner,  treasurer. 

A  proposal  to  deal  with  the  musical  union's  al- 
leged extortions  by  the  introduction  of  a  new 
portable  organ  which,  it  was  claimed,  was  capable 
of  taking  the  place  of  living  musicians  entirely, 
aroused  general  interest,  and  the  inventor  of  the 
instrument  was  listened  to  attentively.  As  a  direct 
result  of  his  description,  coupled  with  the  guaran- 
tees he  presented,  William  A.  Brady  offered  him  an 
opportunity  to  build  one  of  his  organs  in  the 
orchestra  pit  of  the  New  York  Playhouse  and  the 
proposition   was  accepted.

LURE  OF   THE  GOLD  MINES 

TOO   MUCH  FOE   SAILORS. 

An  historical  incident  not  generally  known,  and 
particularly  appropriate  as  Admission  Day  ap 
proaches,  is  told  below: 

When  the  steamsl.il.  Oregon  arrived  in  San 
Francisco  Bay  on  October  is.  1850,  with  all  the 
colors  flying  and  1. ringing  the  news  of  the  admis- 
sion of  California  into  the  Onion,  which  sel  the 
city  of  Saa  Francisco  aflame  with  enthusiasm  over 
the  g I  news,  the  first  steamship,  the  Califor- 
nia, lay  in  the  harbor  anchored,  and  mostly  de 
sorted  by  her  erew,  who  had  left  for  the  mines. 
The  captain  of  the  latter,  an  officer  of  the  navy, 
signalled  first  to  the  captain  of  the  Oregon,  then 
boarded  her  in  a  boat,  and  reported  his  condition 
and  what   might  be  the  Oregon's  fate  as  well. 

The  Sloop-of-war  Warner  was  then  anchored  at 
Sausalito.  Her  captain  was  signalled  and  he  -  oil 
his  boats,  filled  with  armed  blue  jackets,  who  came 
and  took  charge  of  the  Oregon,  and  landed  her  pas- 
sengers. The  crew  was  taken  aboard  the  Warner 
as  prisoners,  and  not  returned  to  the  Oregon  again 
until  she  was  ready  to  sail,  and  was  closely  guarded 
until  outside  the  heads.  Uncle  Sam  enforced  his 
contracts  with  the  erew  of  the  Oregon  and  she 
sailed  for  Panama  before  the  California  could  get 
another  crew.

RESTORE  OLD  EL  CAMIMO  REAL 

(By  ANNIE  E.  McCAUGHEY  of  Santa  Barbara,  Grand   Trustee,   N.D.G.W.) 


E1NA   DEL  MAI;   PAS&LOB,   NO,   L26, 

WlMi.W.,  Santa  Barbara,  lias  been 
asked  to  enlist  the  sympathies  of 
the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters <>f  the  Golden  West  in  the  ef- 
forts that  Santa  Barbara  ami  Ven 
tura  <  lounties  are  making  towards 
building  twelve  miles  of  sea  level 
highway  on  the  coasl  south  of  Santa 
Barba  ra,  This  beautiful  scenie 
highway,  where  the  mountain  and 
ocean  join,  is  a  portion  of  the  old 
El  Camino  Keal,  first  trod  by  Rev.  Junipero  Serra 
and  his  band.  When,  after  building  the  Ventura 
Mission,  these  saintly  Pioneers  proceeded  to  erect 
the  Santa  Barbara  Mission— the  only  one  that  has 
remained  out  of  the  whole  chain  of  Missions  in 
the  procession  of  the  brown-robed  Friars  who  ask 
or  seek  no  aid — which  today  stands  best  preserve  1. 
except  for  the  seats  and  flooring  for  the  comfort 
of  our  more  fastidious  generation.  This  Mission  re- 
tains its  pristine  frescoing  and  paintings,  its  well- 
i .1  eserved  cemetery  where,  in  the  little  space  of 
one-half  acre,  it  is  credited,  2000  Indians  lie  buried 
interspersed  with  the  mausoleum  of  Governor 
Figueroa,  the  different  commandantes  and  the  early 
white  settlers. 

This  highway,  in  later  days,  was  traveled  by  the 
old  stage  (mail  coach)  running  between  San  Fran- 
cisco ami  Los  Angeles.  Later  still,  it  connected 
Santa  Barbara,  at  Newhall,  with  trains  for  Los 
Angeles  and  San  Francisco,  by  way  of  the  San 
Joaquin  Valley.  On  it  now  lie  the  steel  rails  of  the 
Sunt  hern  Pacific,  which  is  rendering  every  aid  pos 
sible  to  the  promoters  of  the  Rincon  Sea  level  Road 
to  bring  about  its  construction.  This  road  lies  en- 
tirely in  Ventura  County.  While  the  mutual  ad- 
vantages to  both  counties  will  be  great,  the  pro- 
moters  believe  the  general  advantage  to  all  auto- 
inobile  travelers  between  San  Francisco  and  Los 
Angeles  will  be  greater.  The  mayor  and  citizens  of 
Santa  Barbara  have  visited  Los  Angeles,  to  further 
this  project,  and  met  with  cordial  encouragement 
and  financial  assistance  from  the  Chamber  of  Com- 
merce ami   other  civic  bodies. 

h'eina  Pel  Mar  Parlor  is  not  asking  assistance  for 
any  commercial  advantage  to  its  home  town,  its 
plea  being  based  upon  the  fact  that  all  Native 
Sons  and   Native  Daughters  are  morally  pledged  to 


assist,    when    practicable]    in    the    re-building   of    El 
i  lamino    Keai.   of    h  inch    |  hese    i  wel  \  e    in  te     ai  e    a 
link.     The  distance  between   these  two   Mission     i 
thirty    miles,  and   the   intervening  space 
substantially   rebuilt    in    the   respective   distri< 
whic  li    I  hey    lie. 

Every   undei ;  i  i  Br  mag  litude, 

must      have      its     beginning.        This     work      will      COSt 

$100,000,   winch   niiisi    be   raised   by   public   subscrip 

tion.    Santa   Barbara  has  pledged   £25,000,  I   Ven 

tura  an  equal  amount,  in  addition  to  which  Ven 
fcura  agrees  to  build  a  $50,000  bridge  across  the 
Ventura   River.     Generous  responses  are  being  made 

by   wealthy    individuals,    men    and    wt sn,    of    both 

counties. 

Energetic    Ventura    has   just    completed    a    system 

of  fine  roadways,  by  b bug  the  county.     This  has 

cause. i  a  considerable  distant I  the  old  El  Camino 

Real  to  be  solidly  repaired.  Santa  Barbara,  in 
course  of  procedure,  is  doing  the  same,  but  it  was 
found  impossible  to  enclose  these  twelve  miles, 
under  the  system  used,  and  the  only  method  left 
was  to  carry  on  the  work   by   public  subscription. 

The  Santa  Vnez  Mission  is  just  thirty  miles 
north  of  Santa  Barbara.  Much  of  the  old  El 
('amino  Real  will  be  built  by  bonding  the  districts 
where  the  road  lies.  Under  present  means  of  trans 
porta  tion  it  is  a  day's  journey  lie  t  ween  t  hese  I  wo 
Missions,  but   time  will   obliterate  these  difficulties. 

The  Santa  Ynoz  Mission  is  being  repaired  by  the 
Roman  Catholic  Bishop  of  this  diocese.  The  two 
well  preserved  Missions  of  Ventura  and  Santa  Bar- 
bara are  not  likely  to  require  public  assistance  in 
either  the  near  or  remote  future. 

We  feel  that  our  Orders  should  know  of  this  op- 
portunity to  assist  in  closing  this  link.  On  Decern 
tier  12th.  at  the  old  Mission  of  Santa  Barbara,  will 
be  observed  the  one  hundred  and  twenty-fifth  anni- 
versary of  its  founding.  In  April,  1912,  the  anni- 
versa  ry  will  be  celebrated  with  public  fund  ions. 
It  is  desired  to  complete  this  road  before  the  heavy 
rains.  We  call  attention  to  Helen  Hunt  Jackson's 
classical  ' '  Ramona,; '  wherein  she  refers  to  the 
journeys  of  the  good  Father  Salvierdierra,  several 
.it'    w  tins,,    prototypes    died       ill       our      Mission       some 

twenty-five  years  ago,  for  a  graphic  picture  of  the 
southern    sea   coast.

Goodwin    at   the    Auditorium. 

The  Los  Angeles  Auditorium  stock  company. 
under  the  direction  of  William  Stoermer.  and 
featuring  Nat  C.  Goodwin  and  Marjorie  Rambeau, 
is  playing  to  capacity  at  each  performance.  Mr. 
Stoermer  is  constantly  on  the  lookout  for  new  plays, 
as  well  as  new-  people  for  the  casts,  and  says  he  in- 
tends during  the  winter  season  to  produce  many 
high-class  plays  at  priees  within  reach  of  all.  Nat 
Goodwin  has  lost  none  of  his  old-time  audience 
drawing  ability,  and  his  work  in  the  plays  in  which 
he  has  appeared  with  the  Auditoruim  company  has 
been  very  acceptable.  Marjorie  Rambeau.  the  Los 
Angeles  theatrical  idol,  is  always  pleasing,  and  is 
a  valuable  asset  of  any  company.  Miss  Louise 
Glaum,  a  new  addition  to  the  company,  made  her 
initial  appearance  this  week. 

Many  people  being  out  of  the  city  when  Good- 
win made  his  appearance  with  the  Auditorium  com 
pany,  Manager  Stoermer  arranged  to  produce  the 
first  four  plays  he  presented,  the  week  of  August 
28th  to  give  returning  vacationers  an  opportunity 
to  witness  them.  On  the  2Sth  and  29th.  "A  Gilded 
Fool"  was  the  bill.  These  performances  were  in 
the  nature  of  a  benefit  performance  for  El  Camino 
Real  Association,  which  will  use  the  proceeds 
towards  its  contribution  to  the  Rincon  Sea-level 
Road  project.  The  30th,  matinee  and  evening.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


September,    1911 


ERE  IN  SUNNY  CALIFORNIA  WE 
may    indulge    in    many    similes,    for 
/  ;^fcJL  though  having  the  different  seasons, 

f  -rTft  they    are    not    so    marked    and    dis- 

tinct as  in  the  colder  climates.  Here 
each  one  seems  to  merge  gently  into 
the  other,  with  flowers  blooming, 
especially  roses,  the  year  round.  To 
illustrate  the  simile  in  regard  to  the 
exquisite  coloring  of  this  season's 
fabrics,  is  what  I  wish  to  do.  Many 
of  us  have  had  the  pleasure  of 
strolling  through  some  old  garden,  where  roses  of 
al]  descriptions  run  riot  over  hedge  and  arbor. 
Other  flowers  there  may  be,  of  many  varieties,  but 
over  the  rose,  with  its  many  shades  and  colorings, 
we  ponder  most.  Some  particularly  fine  specimens 
catch  our  eye,  and  we  note  the  different  blooms, 
from  the  tiny  bud  to  the  full-blown  beauty.  More 
often  the  half-opened  rose  holds  the  attention 
above  the  perfect  flower.  There  is  in  it  something 
so  delicate  and  dainty,  like  unto  innocent  child- 
hood, that  one  may  seemingly  look  far  into  its 
innermost  depths,  as  the  opening  petals  reveal  the 
hidden  beauty  that  exerts  a  strange  and  potent  in- 
fluence over  one.  The  possibilities,  the  same  as 
with  a  child,  are  so  great  we  wonder  what  the  un- 
folding will  bring.  Just  so  with  the  tones  and 
shades  in   the   different 

Weaves   and  Mixtures  for  Autumn. 

They  merge  from  the  distinct,  right  through  to 
the  deeper  and  richer  tones,  in  each  shade  or  color. 
Browns,  for  instance,  are  shown,  from  the  palest 
tan  to  the  golden-glory  stage,  ever  growing  darker 
and  deeper,  until  we  find  the  rich  russet  and  seal 
browns.  In  most  of  the  mixtures  and  two-toned 
materials,  just  a  hint  of  red  and  green  appear,  thus 
giving  a  peculiar  shading  which  seems  to  act  as  a 
lure  to  shoppers.  Not  only  for  "shoppers"  in  the 
sense  in  which  most  of  our  masculine  contingent 
understand  the  term,  but  for  the  really-and-truly 
buyers,  it  is  hard  to  leave  such  an  exquisite  mix- 
ture, for  it  would  make  up  into  a  swell  street  suit; 
or,  if  already  made  up  in  a  fetching  style  that 
Dame  Fashion  says  is  "right,''  what  more  do  we 
want?  In  other  colors,  such  as  blue,  either  navy 
or  cadet,  and  soft  grays,  in  the  prevailing  mix- 
tures, or  pin-stripes  of  a  darker  shade,  or  black, 
we  should  be  able  to  suit  our  particular  style,  both 
in  the  color  and  mode. 

In  the  Two-piece  Street  Suit, 
there  are  some  very  beautiful  and  striking  models 
shown  now  in  local  shops.  One  of  brown  Scotch 
diagonal,  with  irregular  touches  of  golden-brown, 
red  and  green  dots  woven  all  through  it,  had  the 
inverted  foot-pleats  in  the  front  gore  of  the  skirt, 
headed  with  tiny  velvet  buttons  of  a  darker  shade. 
Two  long  tabs,  reaching-  almost  to  the  bottom  of 
the  back  panel,  were  piped  all  around  with  the 
dark  velvet,  and  ten  tiny  velvet-covered  buttons . 
trimmed  each  tab  through  the  center,  near  the  bot- 
tom. 

Skirts  seem  to  be  still  very  close  fitting,  though 
the  word  comes  from  ' '  Gay  Paree ' '  that  they 
''may"  be  just  a  little  wider,  ere  many  moons  have 
waned.  Skirts  also  show  the  high  waist  line,  with 
a  finish  of  piping,  so  that  no  belt  is  required.  This 
Scotch  diagonal  suit  mentioned  above  had  a  34- 
inch  coat,  with  three  shades  of  brown  on  the  col- 
lar which,  though  cut  as  a  "sailor,"  the  two  back 
ends  of  the  collar  were  turned  toward  the  center 
and  finished  with  the  tiny  velvet  buttons,  making 
almost  a  point  in  the  back — a  "square  point,"  our 
modistes  call  it.  Bands  of  satin,  from  the  golden- 
brown  to  seal,  trimmed  the  lower  edge  of  the  col- 
lar and  the  roll  in  front.  Deep  cuffs  of  the  ma- 
terial, with  three  satin  parti-colored  bands  and  tiny 
buttons,  completed  a  new  and  fetching  model. 

Basket  weaves  in  the  many  shades  of  brown,  and 
the  soft  and  rough  weaves,  are  all  displayed. 
Nearly  all  the  tones  of  brown  have  some  little  mix- 
ture— red  and  green  in  most  of  them — though  some- 
times just  a  glint  or  shade  of  little  nobs  are  seen. 
The  novelty  and  beauty  of  these  fabrics,  however, 
must  be  seen  to  be  fully  appreciated. 

In  Long  Coats, 
for  either  the  street  or  automobiling,  there  are 
some  decidedly  chic  and  entirely  new  ideas.  The 
long  coat,  as  seen  in  the  accompanying  illustration, 
with  the  deep  shawl  colla-  edged  with  fringe — as 
our  grandmothers  were  wont  to  wear — is  a  mode 
that  will  be  seen  on  our  s\_.?ets  this  season,  worn 
by   Fashion's  followers   who   do  not   have   to   count 


the  dollars,  let  alone  the  pennies  that  bother  many 
who  would  like  to  be  gowned  becomingly.  When 
a  particular  mode  is  displayed  in  the  very  richest 
of  materials,  just  remember  it  is  "correct,"  in  all 
that  the  word  implies. 

A  Copenhagen-blue  broadcloth,  with  satin  duch- 
esse  lining  of  the  same  shade,  was  made  into  one 
of  those  long  coats,  with  shawl  collar.  Chiffon 
applique  finished  the  neck  of  the  collar,  while  long 
silk  fringe  edged  it.  It  was  double-breasted,  with  a 
big  "B, "  and  three  large  pearl  buttons,  in  the 
white  and  blue  pearl,  set  off  the  wide  effect.  The 
chiffon  applique  also  edged  the  bottom  of  the  wide 
kimono  sleeves.  In  many  of-  these  latest  models, 
only  two  seams,  extending  over  each  shoulder  and 
under  each  arm,  are  used.  The  shoulder  seams  ex- 
tend right  down  over  the  top  of  the  sleeves,  form- 
ing a  new  kind  of  kimono  effect,  that  is  better 
adapted  for  such  a  coat,  as  it  allows  freer  use  of 
the  arms. 

Another  coat  in  this  style  was  of  blaek  silk  vel- 
vet, the  shawl  collar  being  of  the  stamped  velvet,

collar,  in  front,  was  used  for  closing.     Satin  duch- 
esse  lining  of  the  same  shade  was  very  effective. 

Some    New   Models   in   Auto   Coats. 

A  gray  broadcloth,  with  a  pink  cast  almost  on 
the  changeable  order,  was  novel  in  the  extreme.  An 
entirely  new  feature  in  these  coats,  is  the  straight 
line  of  both  back  and  front.  One  side  of  the  front 
laps  in  a  point  straight  across  underneath  the  other, 
buttoning  with  one  large  pearl  or  bone  button  under 
the  arm.  It  is  not  only  a  new,  but  a  pleasing  ef- 
fect, as  the  upper  front  buttons  over  under  the 
left  arm.  This  gives  a  pointed  effect  to  the  front. 
Just  the  two  under-arm  seams  and  shoulder  seams 
are  in  this  wrap.  The  under-arm  seams  are  not 
straight,  but  form  a  delightful  curve  about  half- 
way down.  The  front  overlaps  the  back,  and  is 
piped  with  same  shade  in  the  satin.  The  sleeves 
are  a  little  longer  and  have  that  set-in  effect,  with 
the  piping  around  arm-holes,  instead  of  the  regu- 
iation  seam.  This  is  a  feature  of  the  heavy  coats 
for  ordinary  wear,  and  is  something  that  is  going 
to  take  tremendously,  too.  The  crowning  feature 
of  this  gray  auto  coat  is  the  deep  collar  of  muf- 
falon,  in  a  lighter  shade  of  gray.  It  is  so  soft  and 
fluffy,  one  wants  to  bury  their  face  in  it  straight 
off.  The  pink  cast  to  the  broadcloth  is  also  en- 
hanced by  the  pink  satin  duchesse  lining,  as 
glimpses  of  it  may  be  had  from  most  any  move- 
ment of  the  wearer.  A  hand-crocheted  silk  orna- 
ment, with  pendant,  covers  the  upper  side-arm  clos- 
ing, and  eleven  pink  silk-covered  buttons  trim  the 
cut-away  effect  of  the  front. 

These  auto  coats  come  in  many  different  colors, 
though  mostly  in  broadcloth,  and  are  indescribably 
chic  and  modish.  The  heavier  cloth  coats  are  an- 
other novel  feature,  as  they  are  made  to  be  re- 
versible. If  plain  on  one  side,  and  striped  or  plaid 
on  the  other,  why  with  one  we  have  the  plain  col- 
lar and  cuffs,  and  mayhap  a  belt,  sometimes  all 
around  or  else  just  across  the  back,  and  the  fancy 
plaid  or  striped  body  effect,  or  just  vice-versa,  ac- 
cording to  our  mood.  These  coats  are  long,  cover- 
ing the  dress  if  so  desired,  and  come  in  many 
weaves  and  colors.  Heavy  zibalene  auto-cloth,  with 
plaid  on  one  side  and  plain  for  the  other,  is  a  popu- 
lar weave.  Large  pearl  or  bone  buttons  are  used 
for  closing,  while  smaller  ones  trim  the  sailor  or 
round  collar  and  deep  cuffs.  Buttons  must  be  both 
inside  and  outside,  so  one  can  change  at  any  time, 
by  simply  turning  the  coat  inside  out.  Heavy 
tweeds,  boucle  and  mixtures  are  especially  nice  for 
such  coats.  Many  of  them  are  cut  in  entirely  one 
piece,  with  just  the  shoulder  seams  to  fit,  the  arm- 
holes  cut  out  and  bound,  and  sleeves  set  in.  They 
are    roomy,   too. 

A  New  Jacket  One-piece  Gown 
has  arrived  direct  from  Fashion's  center,  and  in- 
tends to  captivate  the  hearts  and  purses  of  many 
dainty  maids  and  matrons.  The  model  displayed 
was  of  black  messaline,  and  the  jacket  effect  was 
achieved  by  heavy  folds  of  the  messaline  at  the 
waist-line,  to  outline-  it.  Double  rows  of  shirring 
down  the  front,  from  neck  to  hem  and  around  the 


an  entirely  new  and  beautiful  fabric  on  the  change- 
able order,  showing  just  a  tinge  of  red,  seemingly 
in  the  depths  of  the  floral  design  stamped  upon  it. 
The  deep  silk  chenille  fringe  falls  over  the  plain 
velvet  of  the  coat,  while  a  large  black  silk  braid 
ornament,  used  for  the  left  side  closing,  with  a 
pendant  of  the  braid  and  chenille  coming  nearly 
to  the  bottom  of  the  coat,  is  another  unique  fea- 
ture. Red  satin  duchesse  lining  throughout  gave 
to  this  coat  a  warm  and  inviting  appearance.  The 
two  lower  fronts  were  rounded  in  an  entirely  new 
cut,  giving  it  a  style  distinctly  different  from  other 
modes. 

A  very  natty  and  beautiful  ash-tan  broadcloth 
was  displayed  in  the  long  coat  and  shawl  collar 
effect.  The  silk  braiding  of  self  color,  with  Jap- 
anese embroidery  on  the  collar  and  deep  cuff,  was 
decidedly  novel,  while  a  silk  braid  tassel  caught  up 
the  back  of  the  collar  and  extended  down  the  back 
of  the  coat  about  four  inches.  A  massive  silk  braid 
ornament  at  the  lower  end  of  the  long  roll  of  the

Another  one-piece  gown  is  of  electric  blue  satin 
and  hadama  on  the  reverse  side,  and  of  black  on 
the  other.  It  was  made  up  with  the  black  out.  but 
a  peculiar  effect  was  the  blue  gleaming  through  the 
black,  giving  to  it  a  changeable  appearance.  The 
skirt  was  cut  in  just  two  gores,  or  pieces,  giving 
the  wide  panel  effect  both  back  and  front.  A 
Venice  deep  sailor  collar  set  off  the  waist,  which

a  very  smart   appears  ace. 

In  the  Millinery  World, 
the  iuils  are  mostly  large  for  the  early  fall  styles. 
What  the  advanced  season  will  show,  is  still  but

low the  same  ideas  in  soft  felt  hats,  making  a  com- 
plete outfit  that  harmonizes  right  through.  The 
lulling  brims,  with  the  different  shades  underneath, 
crowns  just  a  little  higher  and  trimmings  of  some 
i 'a  in' 3  feathers  which  may  be  t  wo  toned  if  desired, 
give  one  a  eorrecl  feeling.  The  large  "Litchen- 
stein  ' '  hat  and  small  "Srvlirl"  hat,  us  seen  in  the 
accompanying  illustrations,  are  something  very  new 
and  -mart.  Iwo  other  entirely  new-old  styles  are 
the  "  Mother  Hubbard "  and  the  "Pilgrim, "  and 
we  must  even  turn  backward  for  some  "new'' 
ideas,  both  to  the  historical  and  nursery  rhyme 
epochs.

before  October  at  least,  though  there  are  always 
teas  and  garden  parties  galore,  necessitating  dainty 
and  fascinating  gowns.  Our  coming  modes  will  be 
more  complete  and  the  materials  and  colorings  will 
be    displayed    t0    better    advantage    in    a    few    weeks,

Like  the  rose  in  its  many  shadings  and  exquisite 
possibilities,  will  be  this  coming  season 's  fabrics,

SAN  FRANCISCO  INVITES  THE  WORLD. 

San   Francisco  begs  the   honor 
Of  your  presence   in   the   West, 

To    a    mighty    Exposition, 
Which  will  be  the  very  best. 

The  motif  of  the  function— 

Miss  Panama,  so  dear. 
Announces  her  betrothal 

To  the  "Commerce  of  this  Sphere." 

Uncle  Sam  is  most  delighted 

With   the   prospects  of  his  Niece; 

And   approves   of   San   Francisco 
For  the  great   "Betrothal   Feast." 

1 1  teat    ships   of    every    nation 

Will  glide  through  the  Golden  Gate; 

Having  voyaged  up  the  coast  line 
By  way  of  the  "New  Strait." 

And  the  hostess,  our  queen   city, 

Will  again  with  lavish  hand, 
Dispense   her   hospitality, 

To  men  of  every  land. 

Her  Native  Daughters,  who  are  legion, 
With  much  pride  in  their  fair  queen, 

Will  strive  to   make  your  sojourn, 
Most    delightful    and   serene. 

Her  Native  Sons  and  citizens 

Will    lend   a   helping   hand; 
And  I'll  tell  you,  "People  of  the  World," 

Your   visit   will   be  grand. 

At    the    sounding   of   the    whistle, 

To   the  siren  of  the  boat, 
We  will  cheer  you  when  you  enter 

Y\  ith  your  goods  from  lands  remote. 

For  you  see,  our  Western  Hostess 

Has    invited   all    the   Earth, 
To  display  its  crafts  and  products 

And  its  finest  handiwork. 

For  any  who  may  be  in  doubt 

As  to   accommodation. 
I'd  like  to  state  there's  room  for  all, 

Not  matter  what   their  station. 

San  Francisco  is  courageous, 

As  most  of  you   must   know; 
She  sustained  a  shock  that  laid  her  low 
out    four   years   ago.

EPORTS  FROM  CALIFORNIA'S 
mining  counties  are  to  the  effect 
that  business  was  never  so  good, 
and  the  mining  outlook  never  so 
promising.  Exceptional  activity  is 
noted  in  Amador  County  and  the 
yellow  metal  is  being  taken  out  in 
abundance.  The  same  is  true  of 
Nevada  County,  where  several  for- 
merly idle  properties  have  been 
taken  under  bond  or  lease  and  are 
now  being  developed. 
One  of  the  richest  strikes  ever  made  in  Siskiyou 
County  is  reported  by  miners  who  came  in  from 
Salmon  River  and  showed  specimens  taken  from 
the  Taylor  mine.  Ore  varying  from  five  to  ten 
pounds  in  weight  appears  to  contain  more  gold  than 
rock.  The  mine  is  next  to  the  Highland,  which 
was  sold  a  few  months  ago  for  $530,000  in  cash. 
The  rich  shoot  of  quartz  encountered  recently  in 
the  Cub  Bear  mine,  near  Etna,  Siskiyou  County, 
shows  splendid  values  as  developments  progress. 
The  vein  has  been  exposed  on  the  surface  for  over 
100  feet  and  shows  a  width  of  two  feet  with  values 
running   high. 

One  of  the  richest  strikes  in  the  history  of  the 
Tuttletown,  Tuolumne  County,  district  is  reported 
from  the  Tappie  mine.  The  quartz  fairly  sparkles 
with  gold  and  runs  into  thousands  of  dollars  to  the 
ton.  The  vein  has  not  been  explored  sufficiently  to 
determine  its  extent,  but  displays  indications  of 
persisting  to  depth.  The  Tappie  was  recently  taken 
under  bond  and  arrangements  are  being  perfected 
for  vigorous  developments,  which  are  to  add  an- 
other good  producer  to  the  rich  mines  of  this 
county. 

A  new  syndicate  has  entered  the  dredge  mining 
fields  of  Yuba  and  Butte  Counties  that  will  install 
inland  gold  dredges,  which  will  make  possible  the 
handling  of  gravel  deposits  remote  from  rivers  or 
creeks.  Ten  thousand  acres  have  been  acquired, 
and  satisfactory  preliminary  exploration  work  has 
been   carried  on. 

In  Del  Norte  County,  the  Smith  River  mining 
district  has  a  bright  outlook,  despite  the  fact  that 
gold  has  been  mined  there  since  185S.  One  com- 
pany has  recently  installed  a  $25,000  hydraulic 
plant  and  will  begin  operations  in  October.  Several 
other  ''giants"  are  soon  to  be  sent  in,  as  the 
ground  is  rich  in  coarse  and  fine  gold  that  can  be 
mined  at  a  profit  on  a  large  scale. 

News  of  a  rich  strike  at  the  Haskell  Peak  mine, 
in  the  Gold  Lake  district,  of  Sierra  County,  was 
recently  received  at  Oroville.  It  stated  that  in  two 
cars  of  dirt  of  1200  pounds  each  that  had  been 
taken  from  the  mine,  the  gravel  when  washed  gave 
up  $6.20  to  the  car.  The  dirt  was  taken  from  the 
top  of  the  channel,  where  the  values  run  the  thin- 
nest; at  the  bedrock,  it  is  expected  that  the  value 
will  run  into  big  figures.  The  mine  is  a  gravel 
proposition,  and  is  upon  the  mountain  side,  at  an 
elevation  of  7000  feet.  Part  of  the  ground  is  lo- 
cated in   Butte   and   Plumas   Counties. 


Alleged  Mining  Fakir  Held  to  Answer. 
A.  E.  "Williams,  secretary  of  the  Calaveras 
Consolidated  Mining  Company,  has  been  bound  over 
in  the  police  court  in  Oakland  to  appear  before  the 
Superior  Court  for  trial  for  alleged  misrepresenta- 
tions in  a  prospectus  sent  out  in  relation  to  the 
Calaveras  Consolidated  Mining  Company,  by  means 
of  which  something  like  17,000,000  shares  of  stock 
have  been  disposed  of,  as  mentioned  herein  last 
month.  This  case  was  investigated  by  State  Min- 
eralogist Lewis  Aubury  and  prosecution  followed 
when  that  official  had  come  into  possession  of  the 
facts.  It  was  testified  in  the  police  court  proceed- 
ings that  the  directors  "of  the  company  had  no 
knowledge  of  the  company's  affairs;  also  that  the 
company  owned  none  of  the  land  claimed  by  it.  but 
thai  it  was  all  government  land.  Bail  was  fixed  in 
the   sum   of  $4,000. 


Mother  Lode  Miners  to  Meet  Farmers. 

A n-ding    to    the    lone    Valley    Echo,    the    mine 

owners  of  the  Mother  Lode  in  Amador  County  have 
agreed  to  meet  with  the  farmers  along  Dry  Creek 
and  Jackson  Creek  on  the  10th  of  September,  in 
Tone,  for  the  purpose  of  discussing  the  debris  ques- 
tion that  is  agitating  the  people  in  that  section.  It 
is  the  wish  of  all  concerned  that  some  way  may  be 
found  that  will  settle  the  matter,  and  help  the 
farmers  in  the  valleys  conserve  the  balance  of  their 


holdings  from  total  destruction.  That  they  are 
badly  damaged  already,  no  one  can  doubt  who  has 
been  over  the  ground,  and  in  another  year  or  two, 
unless  something  is  done  to  remedy  the  evil,  their 
farms  will  be  absolutelv  worthless. 


Natural  Fuel  Waste  Must  Stop. 
Waste  of  natural  gas  by  the  owners  of  gas  wells 
will  be  prosecuted  by  the  State  Conservation  Board, 
according  to  Secretary  Louis  R.  Glavis,  who  has  sent 
out  warnings  to  the  different  oil  well  companies  in- 
closing a  copy  of  the  act  passed  by  the  last  Legis- 
lature, showing  it  to  be  a  violation  of  the  law  to 
permit  natural  gas  to  escape.  He  has  also  sent 
copies  to  the  district  attorneys  of  the  various  coun- 
ties of  the  State,  asking  them  to  proceed  against 
all  violators  of  this  law. 


RECENT  MINING  DECISIONS. 

Failure  of  Stockholder  to  Pay  Assessments. — Fail- 
ure of  a  stockholder  to  pay  an  assessment  does  not 
forfeit  his  rights;  the  corporation  having  a  remedy 
to  enforce  payment. — Anthony  v..  Hillsboro  Gold 
Mining  Co.,  Supreme  Court  of  Oregon,  114  Pacific 
95. 

Recovery  of  Profits. — A  mining  company,  wrong- 
fully enjoined  from  operating  a  mine,  is  not  entitled 
to  recover  on  the  injunction  bond  profits  lost,  where 
it  appears  that,  on  account  of  other  mines,  opera- 
tions were  not  suspended  by  the  injunction,  and 
that  the  particular  mine  would  have  been  worked 
to  an  uncertain  extent. — McCorniek  v.  United 
States  Mining  Co.  U.  S.  Circuit  Court  of  Appeals, 
185  Federal,  748. 

Mining  Claims. — Where  plaintiff  had  a  mineral 
application  for  certain  forties  and  defendant  had 
an  agricultural  application  for  the  same  lands,  a 
contract  between  them,  whereby  each  relinquished 
a  portion  of  his  claim,  so  that  one  could  receive  a 
part  of  the  ground  under  a  mineral  application  and 
the  other  remaining  portion  under  his  agricultural 
application,  was  not  unlawful. — Murray  v.  White. 
Supreme  Court  of  Montana,  113  Pacific  754. 

Sale  of  Mine. — Where  one  contracted  to  pay 
$10,000  for  a  part  interest  in  a  mine,  and  25,000 
shares  of  stock  of  another  mining  company,  the 
price  not  being  apportioned  to  the  various  items, 
the  contract  was  an  entire  one,  and  where  the 
buyer  received  the  shares  of  stock,  in  the  absence 
of  a  recission  and  return  of  such  stock,  he  could 
not  compel  a  repayment  of  his  money  as  paid  with- 
out consideration,  because  the  interest  bought  in 
the  other  mine  was  worthless. — Perry  v.  Ayers,  Su- 
preme Court   of  California,   114  Pacific  46. 

Abandonment  of  Mining  Lease. — Where  a  lessee 
under  a  mining  lease  agreed  to  commence  mining 
within  twelve  months,  and  continue  it  in  order  to 
determine  whether  there  were  minerals  sufficient 
to  warrant  the  payment  of  $500  under  the  contract, 
and  neither  the  lessee  nor  his  assigns  attempted  to 
carry  out  the  contract  until  twenty-four  years  had 
elapsed,  such  delay  avoided  the  lease,  since,  unless 
such  stipulations  are  performed  within  the  time 
agreed  upon,  and  in  good  fa.th,  the  law  implies  a 
forfeiture. — Kentucky  Diamond  Mining  &  Develop- 
ing Co.  v.  Sellars,  Court  of  Appeals  of  Kentucky, 
136  Southwestern   1016. 

Lien  for  Electric  PowTer. — Electricity  furnished  to 
a  mine  for  illumination  or  for  power  constitutes 
' '  supplies ' '  within  L.  O.  L.  seetion  7444,  giving 
any  person  furnishing  materials  or  supplies  for  the 
working  or  development  of  any  mine  a  lien  upon 
such  mine  therefor ;  a  tl supply ' '  in  its  restricted 
sense  meaning  any  substance  consumed  with  its 
use,  but  in  its  more  general  sense  meaning  any- 
thing furnished  to  meet  a  need,  and  the  term  "sup- 
plies," as  used  in  the  statute,  including  any  sub- 
stance the  use  of  which  might  reasonably  tend  to 
the  working  or  development  of  a  mine  (citing  eight 
words  and  phrases,  p.  6802). — Grant's  Pass  Bank- 
ing &  Trust  Co.  v.  Enterprise  Mining  Co.,  Supreme 
Court  of  Oregon,  113  Pacific  859. 


COAL   AND    OIL   IN   CALIFORNIA. 

California's  production  of  coal  in  1910  was  11,164 
short  tons,  with  a  spot  value  of  $18,336,  according 
to  E.  W.  Parker,  of  the  United  States  Geological 
Survey.  In  1909  California  showed  the  largest  per- 
centage of  increase  among  the  coal-producing  states. 
In  1910  it  showed  the  largest  percentage  of  de- 
crease. Both  changes  were  due  to  fluctuations  in 
the  operations  of  the  Stone  Canyon  Consolidated 
Coal  Co.,  in  Monterey  County.  For  two  years  pre- 
ceding 1909  this  company  had  expended  large 
amounts  of  money  in  developing  its  property  and  in 
building  a  twenty-five  mile  railroad  to  connect  its 
mine  with  the  Southern  Pacific  Railroad.  Unfor- 
tunately, unforeseen  difficulties  were  encountered, 
and  one  misfortune  followed  another  until  the  re- 
sources of  the  company  were  exhausted  and  as  it 
was  unable  to  procure  additional  capital  a  receiver 
was  appointed  and  work  was  suspended  in  October, 
1909.  In  the  nine  months  from  January  to  Septem- 
ber of  that  year  the  Stone  Canyon  mines  had  pro- 
duced seventy-five  per  cent  of  the  State's  output 
for  the  entire  year.  No  coal  was  produced  at  this 
mine  in  1910  and  the  production  for  the  State  de- 
creased about  seventy-five  per  cent. 

All  of  the  eoal  produced  in  1910  came  from  Ama- 
dor and  Riverside  Counties,  principally  from  the 
lone  mine  in  Amador  County.  This  coal  is  lignite. 
The  Stone  Canyon  coal  is  a  noneoking  bituminous 
coal  of  good  quality  and  should  make  an  excellent 
domestic  fuel.  It  stands  exposure  well  and  with 
favorable  freight  rates  would  compete  successfully 
with  foreign  coals  in  the  markets  of  San  Francisco 
and  other  cities  of  the  State. 

The  small  production  of  coal  in  California  is  off- 
set by  the  enormous  increase  in  the  production  of 
petroleum,  most  of  which  is  used  for  fuel.  The  oil 
produced  in  California  in  1910  aggregated  between 
65.000,000  and  70,000,000  barrels,  which,  on  the 
basis  of  three  and  one-half  barrels  of  oil  for  each 
ton  of  high-grade  coal,  would  be  equal  to  a  produc- 
tion of  nearly  20,000,000  tons  of  eoal.  The  use  of 
petroleum  by  the  transportation  and  manufacturing 
industries  of  California  has  practically  eliminated 
coal  as  a  steam-raising  fuel  in  the  State.  Oil  is 
also  used  in  the  manufacture  of  gas,  which  is  em- 
ployed for  cooking  and  for  heating  residences  as 
well  as  for  lighting.  Oil  is  now  also  coming  into 
use  as  a   direct  fuel  for  household  purposes. 


LARGE  INCREASE  IN  QUICKSILVER  OUTPUT. 
The  production  of  quicksilver  in  California  in 
1910  was  17,211  flasks,  valued  at  $800,484,  an  in- 
crease of  1.133  flasks  in  quantity  and  of  $69,739  in 
value  over  the  output  for  1909,  according  to  figures 
compiled  by  H.  D.  McCaskey,  of  the  United  States 
Geological  Survey.  In  1910  California  furnished 
83.5  per  cent  of  the  total  production  of  the  United 
States,  against  76  per  cent  in  1909.  Uutil  the  be- 
ginning of  the  Texas  production,  in  1899,  Califor- 
nia furnished  practically  the  entire  output  of  quick- 
silver in  this  country  since  the  first  activity  in  1850. 
There  was  a  reduced  production  of  quicksilver  in 
1910  in  Colusa,  Napa,  San  Luis  Obispo,  and  Trinity 
Counties  and  an  increased  output  in  Lake,  San 
Benito,  and  Santa  Clara  Counties.  The  county 
leading  in  production  is  San  Benito,  in  which  are 
the  New  Idria  mines,  at  present  the  most  important 
producers  in  the  American  hemisphere.  Following 
this  is  Santa  Clara  County,  with  the  Guadalupe  and 
New  Almaden  mines,  the  latter  the  most  famous 
quicksilver  mine  and  the  one  having  the  largest 
total  output  to  date  in  America.  There  were  fif- 
teen quicksilver  mines  in  California  contributing 
to  the  output  in  1910.  The  total  production  of 
quicksilver  in  California  from  1850  to  the  end  of 
1910  has  been  79,669  short  tons  of  metal,  or  the 
equivalent  of  2,124,508  flasks  of  seventy-five  pounds 
each,  which  would  be  valued  at  $98,810,867,  at  the 
San  Francisco  domestic  price  for  1910.  The  total 
value  is  really  very  much  over  $1000,000,000.  how- 
ever, for  early  prices  of  quicksilver  were  higher 
than    they    are    now.

GRAND    PRESIDENT'S    OFFICIAL    NOTICE, 
NO.   3. 
Los    A  ogeles,    Sep!  ember    l .    1911. 

To  the  Officers  and  Members  of  the  Subordinate 
Parlors  of  the  Native  Sons  of  the  Golden  West — 
Dear  Sirs  and  Brothers:  Zour  attention  is  directed 
to  thai  pari  of  the  Grand  Parlor  lows  which  makes 
it  obligatory  upon  the  part  of  every  Subordinate 
Parlor  to  sel  aside  one  day  in  each  year,  to  be 
known  as  * '  California  Day  for  the  Homeless 
Child,"  and  on  which  day  shall  be  given  an  enter 
tainment,  the  proceeds  of  which  must  be  contrib- 
uted toward  the  expenses  of  the  Central  Committee 
on  Homeless  Children  in  the  handling  of  homeless 
children   throughout  the  State. 

It  is  requested  that  this  year's  observance  of 
"California  Day  for  the  Homeless  Child"  be  ar- 
ranged for  as  near  the  8th  of  October  as  possible, 
and  that  each  Subordinate  Parlor  immediately  take 
steps   with    this   idea   in    view. 

To  those  Farlors  that  have  willingly  complied 
with  the  above  requirements  of  our  law  in  the  past. 
]  wish  to  extend  thanks,  in  behalf  of  the  Grand 
Parlor,  for  the  good  work  they  have  done,  and  to 
urge  that  they  be  just  as  active  in  promoting  this 
year  "s  observance  of  the  Homeless  Child  day,  to 
the  end  that  funds  will  be  available  to  extend  this 
grand    and    noble    work. 

Those  Parlors  that  last  year  neglected  to  do  their 
share  in  behalf  of  the  Homeless  Child,  by  failing 
to  carry  out  the  Grand  Parlor  requirements,  1  wish 
to  especially  urge  to  at  once  begin  preparation  for 
the  carrying  out  of  the  Grand  Parlor's  mandate,  so 
that  the  expense  of  this  work  may  be  equally  borne 
by  all  the  Parlors.  There  is  no  Parlor  but  what  can 
do  something  to  aid  this  cause,  and  as  the  Grand 
Parlor  law  as  regards  the  giving  of  entertainments 
in  behalf  of  the  Homeless  Child  is  mandatory.  I 
trust  that  the  report  of  the  Homeless  Children's 
Committee  at  the  close  of  this  year  will  show  the

1911   PROCEEDINGS   ISSUED. 

During    the    past"  month,    Grand    Secretary    Fred 

H.  Jung  has  been  busy  sending  copies  of  the  nun 
utes  of  the  thirty-fourth  session  of  the  Grand  Par- 
lor, recently  held  at  Santa  Cruz,  to  the  delegates 
in  attendance  upon  that  session.  A  new.  and  pleas 
ing,  feature  of  this  year's  proceedings  is  a  good 
likeness  of  Junior  Past  Grand  President  Daniel  A. 
Ryan,  "Our  Danny."  The  last  Grand  Parlor  passed 
a  resolution  to  the  effect  that  the  photograph  of 
each  future  Grand  President  should  adorn  the  title 
page  of  the  proceedings  of  the  Grand  Parlor  over 
which  he  presides,  and  the  new  custom  has  been 
inaugurated  in  the  1911  proceedings.  The  idea  is  a 
commendable  one,  for  the  likeness  of  each  member 
who  is  in  future  elected  to  the  highest  oftiee  in  the 
gift  of  the  Order  will  be  preserved,  and  together 
form  a  collection  of  celebrities  that  we  will  be  glad 
to  look  upon  in  years  to  come,  and  recall  the  many 
pleasant  hours  spent  together  in  Grand  Parlor 
sessions.

SPECIAL   CHURCH   SERVICES   FOR   SAN 

FRANCISCO   PARLORS,   ADMISSION   DAY. 

The  First  Baptist  Church  of  San  Francisco,  which 
enjoys  the  distinction  of  being  one  of  the  oldest 
churches  in  the  State,  has  formally  voted  to  invite 
the  San  Francisco  Parlors  of  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  to  attend  a  special  Admission 
Day  service  to  be  held  on  Sunday  evening,  Sep- 
tember 10th.  The  First  Baptist  Church  was  or- 
ganized July  6,  1849,  and  during  the  next  month 
erected  a  house  of  worship,  which  was  the  first 
Protestant  church  edifice  built  in  California.  It 
stood  on  Washington  street,  below  Stockton,  where 
the  church  remained  until  the  Chinese  influx  com- 
pelled them,  in  1876,  to  remove,  when  they  settled 
on  Eddy  street,  near  Jones.  Here  they  remained 
until  the  fire  of  1906.  A  splendid  new  building  of 
stone  and  brick  has  been  erected  by  the  church 
on  the  fifty  vara  lot  at  the  corner  of  Octavia  and 
Waller  streets,  at  Market,  and  the  new  home  has 
been  occupied  a  little  more  than  a  year.  The  new 
location  is  central,  four  main  car  lines  passing  near 
the  doors.  The  interests  of  the  church  are  so  varied 
and  numerous,  that  the  edifice  is  in  use  practically 
every  day  of  the  year. 

In  arranging  for  the  special  Admission  Day 
service,  the  church  recognizes  the  intimate  rela- 
tion between  spiritual  religion  on  the  one  hand 
and  civic  and  social  welfare  on  the  other;  and  it  is 
hoped  that  the  members  of  the  large  and  influen- 
tial Orders  wliich  have  been  invited  for  the 
occasion,  will  respond  in  such  numbers  as  to  ex- 
press  their  agreement  with  this  idea  of  the  church's 
place  and  function  in  society.  The  pastor,  George 
E.  Burlingame,  will  speak  on  a  theme  suggested  by 
the  anniversary  which  is  to  be  celebrated;  and  the 
First  Church  choir  will  render  a  special  musical 
program.  The  service  begins  at  7:45  p.m.  All 
members  and  friends  of  the  Orders  are  very  cor- 
dially invited.

HE  STATE  FISH  AND  GAME 
Commission,  whose  main  office  is  in 
San  Francisco,  will  endeavor  to  form 
a  fish  and  game  protection  associ- 
ation in  every  county  of  California 
to  impress  upon  the  people  that  the 
fish  and  game  of  the  State  are  for 
them  and  it  is  to  their  interest  to 
see  the  said  fish  and  game  have  a 
chance  to  propagate  and.  bring  forth 
their  young — that  it  is  each  citi- 
zen 's  absolute  duty  to  see  that  the 
laws  protecting  the  fish  and  game  are  closely  ob- 
served and  lived  up  to.  To  accomplish  this,  dele- 
gates  from  the  city  association  will  form  a  district 
association  for  all  the  six  districts,  and  these  in 
i urn  will  elect  delegates  who  will  take  all  the 
wants  of  the  counties  direct  to  the  commissioners 
and  thereby  aid  the  latter  in  drafting  all  requisite 
laws  for  the  future.  To  accomplish  this  aim,  the 
commissioners  in  the  near  future  will  begin  a  per- 
sonal campaign  throughout  the  State. 

After  the  people  have  become  familiar  with  the 
fact  that  the  fish  and  game  are  the  property  of 
the  common  people,  as  well  as  the  most  favored 
few  as  was  impressed  upon  them  by  recent  com- 
missions, they  will  again  endeavor  to  propagate 
pheasants,  wild  turkeys,  partridges  and  other  birds 
in  all  sections  where  the  game  associations  will 
guarantee  to  protect  them.  The  present  commis- 
sion desires  it  to  be  widely  known  that  they  de- 
sire the  expression  of  the  people  as  to  what  they 
want  done  for  the  fish  and  game,  instead  of  the 
commissioners  telling  the  people  what  they  will  do. 
The  records  of  their  office  will  be  open  to  the  pub- 
lic at  all  times,  and  any  interested  party  can  ascer- 
tain how  every  cent  is  being  expended. 


OCEAN    TO   OCEAN   HIGHWAY 

RESULT   OF  AUTOMOBILE   TOURS. 

The  recent  oeean-to-ocean  tours  of  automobile 
parties  have  resulted  in  an  agitation  for  a  national 
highway,  to  connect  the  Atlantic  and  Pacific  coasts, 
and  all  those  interested  in  the  nation-wide  good 
roads  movement  are  supporting  the  proposition. 
Two  routes  have  been  proposed,  one  through  Colo- 
rado and  Utah,  with  San  Francisco  as  the  western 
terminus,  and  the  other  through  Arizona  and  New 
Mexico,  with  Los  Angeles  as  the  terminus,  known 
as  the  "Sunset  route." 

On  October  2nd,  ten  seven-passenger  automobiles 
will  leave  New  York,  carrying  fifty  persons.  The- 
trip  will  be  made  over  the  southern  route,  with 
Los  Angeles  as  the  destination.  Early  in  August 
a  touring  party  of  similar  proportions,  came  from 
the  Atlantic  coast,  over  the  northern  route,  San 
Francisco  being  the  destination.  The  trip  was  in 
every   particular   successful. 

On  August  10th,  Senator  Cullom  of  Illinois,  in- 
troduced in  the  United  States  Senate  a  bill,  pro- 
viding for  the  construction  of  an  extensive  and  ex- 
pensive system  of  national  highways.  He  plans  to 
make  the  National  Capital  the  hub  of  a  great  wheel 
from  which  will  radiate  seven  national  highways, 
to  terminate,  he  proposes,  in  Portland,  Maine; 
Buffalo,  New  York;  Seattle,  Washington;  San  Fran- 
cisco, California;  San  Diego,  California;  Austin, 
Texas,  and  M&anii,  Florida.  It  is  proposed  that 
they  be  named,  respectively,  "Washington  Nation- 
al Highway,"  "Roosevelt  National  Highway," 
"Lincoln  National  Highway,"  "Jefferson  National 
Highway,"  "Grant  National  Highway,"  "Mon- 
roe National  Highway,"  "Lee  National  Highway." 
It  is  estimated  that  these  seven  national  highways 
will  cost  about  $148,000,000,  and  Senator  Cullom 's 
plan  is  to  raise  the  money  for  their  construction  by 
issuing  bonds  to  cover  the  cost  of  actual  construc- 
tion. After  the  roads  are  built,  he  plans  to  main- 
tain them  by  collection  of  tolls. 

It  is  expected  that  early  in  the  fall  representa- 
tives from  California,  New  Mexico  and  Arizona 
will  get  together  to  formulate  plans  for  waging  a 
campaign  at  Washington  in  regard  to  the  national 
highway   proposed. 


EDITED  BY  HARRY  J.  LELANDE 

«M 

but  that  he  must  take  out  a  new  number  which  tal- 
lies with  the  make  and  power  of  the  automobile.  As 
the  owner  of  the  first  early  numbered  machines — 
whose  numbers  were  secured  six  years  ago,  when 
the  law  first  went  into  effect — have  long  since  dis- 
carded those  machines,  they  will  have  to  discon- 
tinue the  use  of  those  numbers  under  the  new 
ruling. 

In  discussing  his  ruling,  Jordan  says:  "The  law 
is,  that  the  number  dies  with  the  machine,  but 
there  are,  throughout  the  State,  many  machines 
now  in  use  bearing  numbers  which  at  sight  prove 
that  the  law  is  being  violated  by  the  owners.  The 
State  is  losing  by  this  violation  of  the  law,  and 
while  I  do  not  believe  it  is  due  so  much  to  an  intent 
to  wilfully  violate  the  law  as  to  the  owners'  pride 
in  being  among  the  first  to  use  a  machine,  at  the 
same  time  this  violation  of  the  law  is  practically 
a  red  flag  in  the  face  of  those  obeying  the  law  and 
paying  the  new  license  fees  as  they  should." 

For  the  accommodation  of  the  large  number  of 
automobilists  in  Southern  California,  the  Secretary 
of  State  has  established  a  branch  automobile  license 
office  in  Los  Angeles,  in  charge  of  his  son.  This 
will  greatly  facilitate  the  securing  of  State  licenses 
by  owners  in  the  southern  portion  of  the  State, 
where  more  automobiles  are  in  use  than  in  any  sim- 
ilar territory  in  the  country,  due  largely  to  excel- 
lent roads  leading  to  all  points  of  interest. 

PREPARING  TO  BEGIN  CON- 
STRUCTION WORK  ON  HIGHWAY. 

It  is  expected  that  the  various  sections  of  the 
State  will  now  lay  their  claims  before  the  State 
Highway  Commission  for  recognition  in  the  great 
State  Highway,  for  which  $18,000,000  bonds  were 
recently  voted.  These  claims,  in  connection  with 
the  engineers'  reports,  will  be  considered  by  the 
commission,  and  the  route  mapped  out.  According 
to  the  plans,  it  is  proposed  to  build  two  highways, 
one  running  through  the  valleys  of  the  State,  and 
the  other  down  the  coast  line,  and  then  connect 
these  two  main  roads  with  laterals  to  the  various 
county  seats. 

It  has  been  suggested  that  the  coast-line  road 
follow  the  course  of  El  Camino  Real,  as  one  which 
would  provide  a  good  highway  as  well  as  an  his- 
toric route  of  travel.  In  this  way,  the  old  "King's 
highway"  could  be  preserved  for  all  time.  This 
idea  is  meeting  with  almost  unanimous  support  in 
the  route  traversed  by  El  Camino  Real,  and  it  is 
to  be  hoped  the  State  Highway  Commission  will  en- 
dorse  the  project. 

Governor  Hiram  Johnson  has  appointed  the  fol- 
lowing members  of  the  board  that  will  have  charge 
of  this  road-building  work,  and  supervise  the  ex- 
penditure of  the  $18,000,000  appropriation:  N.  D. 
Darlington  of  Los  Angeles,  C.  D.  Blaney  of  Santa 
Clara,  and  B.  A.  Towne  of  Lodi.  W.  R.  Ellis  of 
Berkeley  has  been  selected  as  secretary  of  the 
board,  and  Austin  E.  Fletcher,  an  expert  road- 
builder  of  San  Diego,  has  been  appointed  State 
Highway   Engineer. 


STATE    SECRETARY    LOOKING 

AFTER  AUTOMOBILE  OWNERS. 

According  to  an  edict  issued  from  Secretary  of 
State  Frank  Jordan's  office  in  Sacramento  for  the 
benefit  of  peace  officers  of  the  State,  the  number

GREAT  INTEREST  APPARENT 

IN  BIG  OCTOBER  ROAD  RACES. 

October  14th  has  been  selected  as  the  date  for 
the  year's  Santa  Monica  automobile  road  races, 
over  the  original  course,  and  it  is  expected  to  draw 
the  largest  crowd  ever  attending  a  like  event.  A 
purse  of  $5,000  has  been  guaranteed,  and  the  affair 
will  be  handled  by  the  Motor  Car  Dealers'  Asso- 
ciation. 

The  contest  will  consist  of  two  events,  the  light 
car  and  the  heavy  car  races.  The  races  as  a  whole 
will  be  free  to  the  general  public  and  the  only 
charges  will  be  for  the  grand  stand  and  special 
parking  spaces.  Any  profits  derived  from  the  event 
will  be  turned  over  to  the  Newsboys'  Home  to  be 
distributed  among  the  newsboys. 

The  Santa  Monica  city  officials  are  doing  their 
utmost  to  prepare  the  roads  and  assure  the  pro- 
moters that  the  course  of  the  great  contests  will 
be  faster  than  ever,  thus  assuring  Southern  Cali- 
fornia the  fastest  eourse  in  the  United  States  for 
an  automobile  road  race. 

The  rules  of  the  contest  have  been  so  amended 
this  year  as  to  permit  the  entry  of  an  unlimited 
number  of  cars  of  any  make,  thus  eliminating  a 
great  deal  of  the  antagonism  previously  engendered 
because  only  one  car  of  a  make  was  permitted  to 
engage  in  the  events.  This  decision  will  tend  to 
largely  increase  the  number  of  entries,  and  thereby 
lend  added  interest  to  the  races. 


A  M  A  T  E 


Girl  Swims  Across  Golden  Gate. 

Miss  Hazel  B.  Laugenour,  19-year-old  daughter  of 
Henry  W.  Laugenour  of  Oakland,  and  a  student  at 
the  University  of  California,  Berkeley,  swam  across 
the  Golden  Gate,  San  Francisco,  August  19th,  in 
one  hour  and  twenty-eight  minutes.  Miss  Lauge- 
nour is  the  first  woman  to  accomplish  this  feat. 

While  the  Golden  Gate  is  but  5120  feet  wide 
at  its  narrowest  point,  it  presents  many  dangers  to 
swimmers  because  of  the  extreme  coldness  of  the 
waters  and  the  swiftness  of  its  tidal  currents. 
Walter  Pomeroy,  who  swam  the  gate  on  July  23rd, 
breaking  the  record,  was  the  first  to  accomplish  the 
feat  in  twenty  years  and  established  the  time  of 
24  minutes  and  36  seconds.  The  previous  record, 
made  by  Edward  Cavill,  in   1891,  was  90   minutes. 

On  August  20th,  Lyba  and  Nita  Sheffield  of 
Santa  Monica,  who  are  to  enter  the  California  Uni- 
versity, swam  across  the  Golden  Gate,  the  former 
in  forty-three  minutes  and  the  latter  in  forty-seven 
minutes.  Miss  Nellie  Schmidt,  also  a  university 
student,  swam  the  Gate  in  forty-two  minutes.  The 
distance  covered  in  these  feats  was  one  mile,  from 
Fort  Point  to  Lime  Point,  and  thousands  of  spec- 
tators lined  the  shores  to  encourage  the  daring  girl 
swimmers. 


Lawful  to  Kill  During  September: 

Tree  squirrels,  in  all  districts,  September  1st  to 
January  1st;  bag  limit,  twelve  iu  one  season.  Men- 
docino County,  however,  is  not  included  herein,  as 
it  has  no  closed  season  or  bag  limit  as  regards 
tree   squirrels. 

Mountain  quail,  grouse  and  sage  hens,  in  all  dis- 
tricts, September  1st  to  December  1st;  bag  limit, 
ten  mountain  quail,  four  grouse,  four  sage  hens  in 
one  day. 

Doves,  in  Districts  4  and  6,  September  1st  to  No- 
vember 1st;  bag  limit,  twenty  in  one  day. 

Crawfish  and  lobster  can  be  caught  after  Sep- 
tember 15th.  From  September  17th,  it  will  be  un- 
lawful to  catch  any  salmon  or  striped  bass,  either 
in  or  above  tidewater.  The  closed  season  for 
golden  trout  begins  September  1st. 

It  will  be  unlawful  to  kill  deer  in  Districts  2,  4 
and  5,  after  September  1st,  and  in  District  6  after 
September   15th. 

Portland  Still  Leads  Coast  League. 
The  positions  of  the  clubs  in  the  Pacific  Coast 
League  have  not  changed  since  the  August  Grizzly 
Bear,  Portland  still  holding  first  place,  and  Los  An- 
geles bringing  up  a  poor  rear.  During  the  month 
of  August,  however,  Vernon  succeeded  in  climbing 
to  the  pennant  position,  but  was  unsuccessful  in 
the  recent  series  with  Oakland,  and  had  to  get  back 
into  second  place.  There  seems  to  be  no  argument 
against  the  opinion  that  Sacramento  and  Los  An- 
geles will  continue  to  fight  for  the  tail-end  honors, 
with  the  latter  on  the  long  end  of  the  betting. 
Portland,  Vernon,  Oakland  and  San  Francisco  are 
putting  up  good  ball,  and  making  a  brave  fight  for 
the  pennant,  but  if  Portland  continues  to  play  the 
same  class  of  ball  as  it  has  been  dispensing,  the 
chances  are  good  that  it  will  carry  off  the  victory- 
flag. 

The    club    standings    in    the    various    big   leagues, 
including  games  played  August  24th,  follow:

PROPOSED  ROAD  MEANS  MUCH 

TO    ENTIRE    CALIFORNIA    COAST. 

(  Editor  'a   Note,  i 

Aside  from  its  sentimental  interest,  the  proposed 
Rin con  Sea-level  Road  above  referred  to,  should 
be  of  especial  interesl  to  the  many  automobilists 
who  travel  between  San  Francisco  and  Los  Angeles, 
who  have  constantly  dreadea  the  Casitas  Pass,  in 
Ventura  County.  When  this  proposed  road  is  com- 
pleted, the  Casitas  grade  will  be  overcome,  the  dis- 
i.i  jut  ImM  \\  .'en  Santa  Barbara  and  Ventura  short- 
ened ten  miles,  and  .me  of  the  most  beautiful 
scenic  drives  in  the  country,  along  the  ocean,  will 
be  open  to  those  who  care  to  take  advantage  of  it. 
Nol  only  will  this  route  be  of  interest  to  our  home 
tourists,  but  a  source  of  great  pleasure  to  visitors 
from  all  over  the  United  States  who  bring  their 
cars  to  California  and  desire  to  view  the  wonderful 
scenic  beaut)  of  our  roast.  The  Casitas  Pass 
route,  with  its  beautiful  scenic  drives,  will  still  re- 
main available  after  the  Rincon  Sea-level  Road  is 
opened  up  along  the  beach,  giving  option  of  selec- 
tion of  either  route  to  the  traveler. 

When  this  Rincon  Sea  level  Road  is  completed, 
rhe  man  who  drives  or  intends  to  tour  can  enjoy  a 
great  sight-seeing  trip  along  the  original  El  Camino 
Real  as  used  in  the  days  of  the  Franciscan  Fathers 
when  establishing  missions  from  San  Diego  north 
in  San  Francisco.  This  connecting  link  will  follow 
the  coast  over  fifty  miles  of  ocean  boulevard  from 
Santa  Barbara  south,  extending  into  Ventura 
County. 

The  time  is  short  in  which  to  raise  the  $50,000 
popular  subscription,  and  all  those  interested  should 
put  their  shoulders  to  the  wheel  and  endeavor  to 
I. oust  for  subscriptions  for  this  Rincon  Sea-level 
Road.  In  addition  to  the  convenience  to  motorists, 
the  route  will  !>•  a  source  of  direct  benefit  to  bus- 
iness interests  of  all  cities  on  El  Camino  Real.  The 
expenditure  called  for  is  necessary  on  account  of 
6,000  feet  -if  piling  being  required  to  carry  the 
road  around  the  rocky  points  of  Rincon  and  Punta 
Gorda  above  high  tide,  and  construct  a  permanent 
boulevard  that  will  aot  -oily  withstand  the  assaults 
of  the  oc?an.  but  remain  in  good  condition  under 
constant    touring   travel.      Santa  Barbara  County   is 

constructing  a  $40, bridge  over  the  Santa  Ynez 

River  al  the  San  Lucas  crossing,  thus  making  the 
San   Marcus   Pass  accessible  at  all  seasons. 

Campaign  buttons,  tags,  banners  and  official  re- 
ceipt books  fur  contributions  are  being  placed  with 
all  principal  hotels  and  garages.  The  secretaries 
of  chambers  of  commerce  and  automobile  clubs  are 
aut horized  to  receive  subscriptions,  when  holding 
these  official  receipt  books.  H.  J.  Doulton.  Super- 
\  I--, ,r  of  Santa  Barbara  County,  is  general  trustee 
of  the  fund,  and  will  receive  any  contributions. 
The  completion  of  this  Rincon  Sea-level  Road  will 
lie  a    I st    for   the  entire  coast   of  California. 


CALIFORNIA. 


In   California's  gulden  land 
Along  the  broad  Pacific  strand 
Ami    where   the  great   Sierras  loom 
Above  the  soil  where  flowers  bloom, 
There   ragged  summits  crowned   with  snow 
Look  down  on  gardens  far  below. 
In    fair   and    sunny   southern   clime 
Where   winter  seems  like  summer  time, 
From   north   to  south,  there  may  be  found 
All    climates   on    God's   favored    ground. 
The  sick  are  oft   restored  to   health, 
By    change    within   this  land   of   wealth; 
Her  mountains  with  their  scenes  so  rare 
Are   roamed   by  deer  and  grizzly  bear; 
Her  groves  of  stately  giant   trees 
That   wave  in  grandeur  in  the  breeze, 
Like   mighty  guards  seem  watching  o'er 
The   treasures   on   enchanted   shore, 
in    nature's    wundrnus    temple    of    God, 
Where   Pioneei  and  savage  trod, 
Her  mines  of  silver  and  of  gold 
Remind   of  Ophir,  famed  of  old. 
Her  fertile  valleys,  broad  and  green. 
Where   farmers  for  decades  have  been 
Who  raise  the  grape  and  trim  the  vine. 
In   land  that   iiows  with  milk  and  wine, 
Where  grow  the  apple,  peach  and  pear. 
That   make  us  wonder  at  the  fair, — 
The  land  of  orange,  fig  and  prune, 
And  birds  that  sweetly  sing  in  June. 
Here  crystal   lakes  abound  in   fish. 
And   nature   vields  to  human   wish; 


And   cattle   graze,  and   horses    lee] 
In     pastures    that    Supply     their    need; 
The     tields    of     m'\  <'i     ta  il  nig    hay 

Wit  a    great     aim  m la  i seem    to    pay; 

The    mount  a  in    streams   are    Bold    and    pure. 
They   cool,   refresh,  affect  and  cure. 
The   city   of    the    Angels    fur    smith    stands 
Inviting    all     with    outstretched     hands; 
And    near    the    famous    Golden    Gate, 
There  sits  enthroned  the  Queen   of   Slate, 


Which  has  withstood  earthquake,   fire, 

Ami    still    seems    all    that    men    ilesire; 
To    her   all    nations   homage    pay. 

\  mi  mighty  fleets  incline  her  r

William  E.  Moutrey,  who  claimed  to  be  .the  first 
child  born  of  American  parents  in  California,  died 
in  San  Jose.  August  6th,  aged  64  years.  His  father, 
Riley  S.  Moutrey,  was  one  of  the  rescuers  of  the 
hYed-Donner  Party  in  1846-47;  his  mother,  now  81 
veins  of  age,  survives,  as  does  also  sis  sisters.  Wil- 
liam E.  Moutrey 's  advent  into  the  world  was  under 
rather  stirring  circumstances.  His  parents,  who  had 
endured  the  hardships  of  a  trip  across  the  plains 
from  St.  Joseph's,  Missouri,  and  a  winter  on  scant 
rations  after  reaching  California,  went  from  Sut- 
ter "s  Fort,  in  Sacramento  County,  to  Alviso,  by 
boat,  and  had  settled  near  the  old  Spanish  Mission 
of  Santa  (  lara.  They  had  been  there  but  a  short 
time  when  the  Mexican  War  broke  out  there,  and 
fighting  was  going  on  near  the  Mission.  The  padres 
opened  the  doors  to  all  who  sought  shelter,  and  for 
several  months  housed  and  eared  for  all  who  would 
accept  their  hospitality.  Among  those  who  fled  in 
terror  to  the  Mission,  were  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Moutrey, 
and  it  was  within  the  walls  of  the  old  Mission,  on 
October  14,  1847,  that  a  child  was  born  to  this 
sturdy  Pioneer  family.  That  son  was  ehristened 
William    E.    Moutrey. 

Dona  Basilia  Higuera,  perhaps  the  oldest  native 
daughter  of  California,  passed  away  in  San  Luis 
Obispo,  July  31st.  at  the  age  of  96  years,  survived 
by  six  children,  forty-five  grandchildren,  sixty 
great -grandchildren,  and  five  great-great-grand- 
children.  Deceased  was,  indeed,  a  remarkable  wo- 
man. Born  in  Monterey  in  1815,  she  was  married 
at  12  years  of  age,  and  when  but  13  years  old  gave 
birth  to  twins,  of  whom  a  daughter  survives.  She 
was  the  mother  of  fifteen  children,  six  of  whom 
passed  away.  Her  husband,  after  whom  Higuera 
street  in  San  Luis  Obispo  is  named,  passed  away 
many  years  ago.  All  of  the  living  descendants  of 
this  sturdy  California  daughter  reside  in  San  Luis 
Obispo   City  or   County. 

Michael  Welsh,  one  of  Shasta  County's  sturdiest 
residents,  died  recently  in  Redding.  Deceased  was 
a  native  of  Queenstown,  Ireland,  aged  85  years.  In 
1S40  he  came  to  America  and  ran  a  steamboat  on 
the  Mississippi  until  1S45,  when  he  started  for  Cal- 
fornia.  For  ten  years  he  mined  on  the  American 
River,  and  in  1856,  with  his  bride  whom  he  had 
just  wedded  in  Sacramento,  went  to  Shasta  County. 
Here  he  followed  mining  for  several  years,  but 
later  became  interested  in  farming,  and  eame  to  be 
recognized  as  one  of  the  most  expert  horticultural- 
ists  in  the  northern  part  of  the  State.  Four  child- 
ren survive. 

Mrs.  J.  M  Henderson,  one  of  California's  oldest 
Pioneer  women,  passed  away  in  Sacramento,  Aug- 
ust 3rd,  aged  S2  years.  Deceased  was  a  native  of 
England,  and  as  Margaret  Sweasey  came  across  the 
plains  to  this  State  with  her  family  in  a  prairie 
schooner,  arriving  in  1850.  In  1860,  deceased  was 
wedded  to  J.  M.  Henderson,  and  after  farming  in 
San  Joaquin  and  Sacramento  Counties  for  some 
time  they  took  up  their  residence  in  the  Capital 
City.  Mrs.  Henderson  is  survived  by  her  husband, 
a  daughter,  Mrs.  Charles  W.  Mier,  and  three  sons— 
J.  M.  Henderson,  Jr.,  William  M.  Henderson  and 
Dr.  A.  M.  Henderson,  all  of  whom  are  old-time  mem- 
bers of  Sacramento  Parlor  of  Native  Sons. 

Andrew  Wolf,  a  pioneer  of  Stockton,  died  in  that 
city  recently,  aged  90  years.  Deceased  was  a  na- 
tive of  Ohio,  and  after  a  trip  across  the  plains,  ar- 
rived at  Hangtown,  August  IS,  1849.  Upon  arrival, 
two  others  and  himself  began  mining,  and  a  clean- 
up after  thi-ee  days'  work  netted  Wolf  $1500.  He 
immediately  set  out  for  San  Francisco,  but  stopped 
on  the  way  at  Stockton,  where  he  went  into  busi- 
ness and  continued  to  reside.  Here  he  was  married 
in  1852  to  Miss  Amanda  Dwelley,  who  came  to 
Stockton  in  1850,  and  they  resided  in  a  home  built 
in  1S52  until  18S6,  when  the  pioneer  structure  was 
replaced  by  a  modern  one.  Deceased  is  survived 
by  a  widow  and  three  children. 

"Mrs.  M.  A.  Alvord,  a  native  of  New  York,  who 
came  to  California  in  1849,  recently  passed  away 
in  Palo  Alto,  aged  82  years.  Two  daughters  survive. 
James  Waters,  a  native  of  Maryland,  who  came

The  Late  MAJOR  WILLIAM  JACKSON, 
Born,  Cooke  County,  Tennessee,  June  5,  1822. 
Died,  Orange  County,  California,  June  23,  1911. 

Major  William  Jackson,  who  passed  away 
cently  at  Orange,  was  a  native  of  Tennessee, 
89  years,  and  his  long  and  honorable  career,  much 
of  which  was  devoted  to  the  development  of  Cal- 
ifornia— though  he  was  not  a  " Pioneer"  of  the 
State,  in  the  true  sense  of  that  term — is  deserving  of 
mention  in  this  department.  In  1832,  at  10  years 
of  age,  with  his  family,  deceased  moved  to  Mis- 
souri, and  on  the  journey  across   the  then  wilder-

ness  they  met  Andrew  Jackson,  President  of  the 
United  States,  and  renewed  a  family  acquaintance 
of  many  years '  standing,  and  the  words  there 
spoken  by  the  President  had  a  controlling  influence 
over  William's  course  through  life. 

The  family  settled  in  Manitou  County,  where  de- 
ceased, in  1S49,  married,  and  moved  to  Putnam 
County,  of  which  he  was  assessor  in  1854.  In  1S55 
he  represented  that  county  in  the  State  Legislature 
and  was  one  of  the  main  supporters  of  United  States 
Senator  Thomas  H.  Benton  in  a  long  and  bitter 
contest  for  re-election  which  resulted  in  his  defeat 
owing  to  his  opposition  to  the  extension  of  slavery. 
When  the  Civil  War  broke  out,  the  Governor  of 
Missouri,  Clayborne  Jackson,  a  cousin  of  the  de- 
ceased, called  a  constitutional  convention  for  the 
purpose  of  passing  a  Secession  ordinance  and  plac- 
ing Missouri  in  the  ranks  of  seceding  states,  and 
Major  Jackson  was  elected  a  delegate  to  this  con- 
vention on  a  Union  platform.  When  the  conven- 
tion met  it  declared  the  loyalty  of  Missouri  to  the 
Union  and  then  deposed  the  existing  disloyal  gov- 
ernment and  elected  iu  its  place  a  provisional  gov- 
ernment composed  of  men  in  full  sympathy  with 
the  Federal  Government.  Many  inducements  were 
unsuccessfully  held  out  to  Major  Jackson  to  get 
him  to  east  his  lot  with  the  Secessionists,  and  he 
was  offered,  but  refused,  a  commission  as  brig- 
adier-general of  the  Confederate  Army.  He  was 
later  commissioned  major  of  the  Third  Cavalry, 
Missouri  State  Militia,  and  served  with  his  regi- 
ment until  the  spring  of  1864. 

Shortly  after,  with  his  family.  Major  Jackson  de- 
parted for  California,  and  arrived  in  Sonoma  County 
in  1864.  The  presidential  campaign  was  at  its 
height,  and  in  the  contest  between  Abraham  Lin- 
coln and  General  McClellan,  deceased  rendered  val- 
uable service  to  the  cause  of  the  Republican  party. 
From  Sonoma  County  the  family  moved  to  San  Luis 
Obispo,  and  from  there,  in  1S74,  to  Lompoc,  Santa 
Barbara  County,  where  they  resided  until  1903, 
when  the  Major  and  his  wife  moved  to  Orange, 
where   his   declining   days  were   spent. 

Major  Jackson  was  an  honored  member  of  the 
Grand  Army  of  the  Republic  and  the  Masonic  fra- 
ternity. He  is  survived  by  a  widow,  Mrs.  Mary  C. 
Jackson,  two  daughters,  and  six  sons,  one  of  whom, 
Grant  Jackson,  is  a  practicing  attorney  of  Los  An- 
geles and  an  active  member  of  Sierra  Madre  Parlor, 
N.S.G.W. 

William  Henry  Burrough,  who  crossed  the  plains 
to  California  in  1849,  died  in  Fresno,  August  4th, 
aged  75  years.  Deceased  came  to  this  State  with 
Henry  Akers,  and  during  the  trip  they  suffered 
many  hardships,  the  most  serious  being  the  lack  of 
water.  Fot  a  time  it  seemed  that  they  would  not 
be  able  to  make  their  way  across  the  barren  plains, 
and  they  were  six  months  traveling  by  ox  team 
from  Texas  to  California. 

David  Manning,  who  came  to  California  in  1850 
and  had  resided  in  Santa  Cruz  for  forty  years,  died 
there  recently.  He  was  a  native  of  Tennessee,  aged 
85  years,  and  is  survived  by  four  children. 

Louis  A.  Moreno,  Sr.,  who  was  born  in  the  old 
mission  at  San  Luis  Obispo  June  7,  1836,  passed 
away  in  that  city,  July  31st.  At  the  time  of  his 
birth,  his  parents  were  domiciled  at  the  mission, 
his  father,  Don  Santiago  Moreno,  being  the  admin- 
istrator under  Governor  Alvarado  of  the  property 
which  was  wrested  from  the  padres  by  the  act  of 
secularization,  the  order  being  issued  by  the  Mex- 
ican government  in  1834.  Deceased  is  survived  by 
an  aged  widow  and  several  children.  "Luie, "  as 
he  was  known  to  everybody  in  San  Luis  Obispo  for 
the  past  fifty  years,  was  an  interesting  figure  in 
local  history,  having  seen  that  city  as  a  boy,  when 
but  a  handful  of  residents  had  taken  up  land  there 
and  not  more  than  a  round  dozen  houses  comprised 
the  then  village. 

William  Holder,  who  came  to  California  by  ox- 
team  in  1850,  died  August  8th  in  Redwood  City, 
where  he  erected  the  first  wooden  house.  Deceased, 
who  had  reached  the  age  of  S6  and  amassed  a  con- 
siderable fortune,  was  never  married. 

John  L.  Whitney,  a  pioneer  of  Tuolumne  County, 
died  recently  in  Los  Angeles.  He  eame  to  Califor- 
nia in  the  early  days,  and  from  1851  to  1S62  fol- 
lowed mining  at  Shaw's  Flat,  Tuolumne  County. 
He  then  engaged  in  business  at  Quartz  Mountain 
until  a  few  years  ago,  when  he  removed  to  the 
southern  city. 

W.  E.  Gillaspie,  a  venerable  pioneer  of  Mendo- 
cino County,  passed  away  recently  near  Cloverdale. 
He  was  a   native   of  Indiana,   aged   82   years,    and

the  air,  cleared  the  three  boards,  landed  safely  on 

1 1 kher  Bide  and  started  off  in  a  straight  line  over 

the  plain. 

Minutes  wenl  by  and  lengthened  into  hours; 
noon  time  passed;  the  sun  went  down.  The  morning 
broke,  but  Blue  Hell  and  McGinness  returned  not. 
Jim  Sna  ley  was  furious.  He  then  animadverted 
upon  the  appearance  of  the  tramp  and  the  probabili- 
ties of  his  being  an  escaped  convict,  who  was  out 
stealing  horses.  He  wanted  the  major-domo  of  the 
ranch  to  organize  a  posse  of  cow-boys,  pursue  the 
vanished  McGinness  and  take  a  hempen  vengeance 
upon  him. 

But  the  major-domo  frowned  and  said,  "No. 
-Mt.il>  v,  you  and  that  horse  have  crippled  at  least 
a  dozen  tramps  and  very  nearly  killed  my  book- 
keeper, who  refused  to  remain  on  account  of  your 
practical  joking.  I  guess  the  ranch  can  stand  the 
loss  of  the  horse,  and  if  I  ever  see  McGinness,  I'll 
give  him  to  him  as  a  present.  So  far  as  your  sad- 
dle, bridle  and  spurs  are  concerned,  you'll  have  to 
Dear  that  loss  yourself,  as  you  have  evidently  had 

a  practical  joke  turned  on  you." 

********** 

About  a  month  subsequent  to  the  events  last  nar- 
rated,  a  horseman  was  seen  riding  leisurely  up  to 
the  ranch  house  of  the  big  Nevada  cattle  ranch 
whore  Thomas  Manley  and  Bill  Diggs  were  first 
introduced  to  the  reader.  Few  people  would  have 
recognized  in  the  rider  of  that  horse  the  shave- 
headed  Irish-speaking  tramp  who  had  ridden  Blue 
Hell  away  from  Miller  &  Lux's  ranch.  But  never- 
theless, it  was  our  friend  Bill  Diggs,  and  the  beau- 
tiful, docile  horse  that  he  rode  was  none  other  than 
the  wild  and  supposedly  untamable  Blue  Hell  of  the 
San  Joaquin.  Bill  Diggs  had  been  on  a  leave  of 
absence  for  the  past  two  months,  ostensibly  having 
a  good  time  in  'Frisco.  Our  readers  by  this  time 
will  realize  that  Bill  Diggs  had  been  spending  his 
time  turning  the  tables  on  Jim  Snaley,  and  aveng- 
ing the  injury  done  by  that  reckless  joker  to  his 
friend  Tom  Manley,  to  whom  he  afterwards  pre- 
sented the  beautiful,  now  docile,  riding  horse,  Blue 
Hell,  and  with  the  elegant  purloined  equipments. 

The  writer  of  this  article  was  present  at  the  bunk- 
house  the  night  of  Bill  Diggs'  return,  and  witnessed 
the  hilarious  merriment  of  the  assembled  cow-boys. 

Years  have  passed  since  the  events  narrated 
above;  Diggs,  Snaley  and  many  of  their  compan- 
ions have  climbed  the  golden  stair.  God  bless  you 
all.  boys,  wherever  ye  be.  The  real  cow-boy  is 
fading  from  the  scene  of  our  western  life,  but  the 
forlorn  individual  to  whom  you  gave  a  free  shelter 
and  a  hearty  welcome  is  an  old  man  now,  but  he 
remembers  you  all  with  gratitude,  for  I  am  Thomas 
Manley. 


A   WESTERN    SUNSET. 

Oh   Sunset,  in  thy  crimsoned  evening  glow. 
Pure  and  bright   as  sapphire's  dazzling  light, 
Would  that  with  each  eve  of  setting  sun 
That  we  a  ray  of  beauty  might  extract, 
io  make  each  hour  a  pearl  of  price  untold, 
And  life,  alway,  a  gem  of  purest  thought. 

Beyond   those   western   hills  of  living  green, 

Beyond  those  proud  old  domes  which  loom  above. 

Trying  to  reach  the  realm  of  blended  hues, — 

Emolument  of  pride  from  One  above, — 

Thou  sinkest  to  rest  at  close  of  day, 

Engraving  in   memory  of  rapture  untold, 

A   picture   so   grand,   but   transient   and   brief. 

Oh  Sunset,  in  tne  rippling,  dancing  wave. 
As  the  restless  ocean  's  billows  rise  and  fall, 
Bathing  within   their  vastly  solemn   deep 
Thy   rays   of   matchless  beauty,   grand,   sublime. 
Thou  mirrorest  on  their  crested,  restless  sea 
Thy  dawning  image  forever,  golden  bright. 

Oh  Orb  of  Day,  and  King  of  all  the  Planet  Realm, 
Oh  Lamp  of  Light,  within   this  finite  world. 
With    pride  we  greet  thee  at  the   morning's   dawn 
And  watch  thy  transit,  fleet,  beneath  the  zenith's 

dome 
When  thou  descendeth  with  each  declining  day 
To  greet  the  guests  of  earth  in  friendly  way, 
Before  thou  leaveth   to  light  a  sister  realm. 

<  Ih  Sunset,  in  thy  radiant  beams  of  tender  light. 
Arched  by  the  blue  of  Heaven's  ethereal  veil, 
Dancing  with  glee  in  thy  realms  of  gold, 
Each   day   for  thy  coming  we  patiently  wait; 
And  view  with  fond  pleasure  thy  luminous  light, 
As  thy  ripples  of  beauty  descend  from  thy  throne 
And  make  thee,  oh  Sunset,  unrivaled  by  art.

Angels  Gamp,   California.

Initiatory  Contest. 

Santa  Rosa — Petaluma  Parlor,  No.  27,  Santa  Eosa 
Parlor,  No.  28,  Healdsburg  Parlor,  No.  6S  and  Se- 
bastopol  Parlor,  No.  143,  have  appointed  a  joint 
committee  to  make  arrangements,  formulate  rules, 
etc.,  for  a  series  of  competitions  between  the  reg- 
ular elective  officers  of  the  Sonoma  County  Parlors 
named,  in  a  bonafide  initiation  of  a  real  live  can- 
didate. The  committee  has  organized  by  electing 
Dr.  Jackson  Temple  of  Santa  Eosa  Parlor  chair- 
man, A.  P.  Cochran  of  Healdsburg  Parlor,  secre- 
tary, and  A.  P.  Beherns  of  Petaluma  Parlor,  treas- 
urer. The  teams  are  to  compete  for  a  first  prize 
of  $75  and  a  second  prize  of  $26,  the  money  for 
which  has  been  raised  by  popular  subscription 
among  the  members  of  the  four  Parlors  named. 
The  committee,  assisted  by  Grand  Secretary  Fred 
H.  Jung,  who  has  kindly  consented  to  aid  in  mak- 
ing the  contest  a  success,  is  now  busily  engaged  in 
drafting  the  rules  and  schedule  of  percentages  that 
are  to  govern  the  competition.  The  contest  is  to 
begin  soon  after  the  Ninth  of  September  celebra- 
tion, and  will  continue  during  the  fall  and  early 
winter  months.  Each  of  the  contesting  Parlors 
shall  contest  once  during  each  month,  and  shall 
meet  each  of  the  other  Parlors  twice  during  the 
contest. 

It  has  been  decided  that  the  final  contest  will 
take  place  at  a  special  meeting  of  Petaluma  Par- 
lor, to  be  held  in  the  Old  Adobe  building,  recently 
acquired,  on  some  date  to  be  fixed  later,  at  which 
time  all  the  Parlors  of  the  county  will  assemble 
to  witness  the  work  of  the  various  teams,  as  it  will 
be  held  in  the  aaytime,  so  that  all  may  attend.  It 
is  expected  that  this  contest  will  result  in  much 
good  to  the  Parlors  participating,  in  arousing  in- 
terest among  the  members  and  officers  to  take  a 
more  active  part  in  the  work  of  their  respective 
Parlors.

Interest  in  Whist  Parties. 

San  Francisco — The  installation  at  Alcatraz  Par- 
lor, No.  145,  presided  over  by  D.D.G.P.  Cutler,  was 
a  marked  success,  the  large  hall  at  121  Lark  in 
street  being  filled  with  members  of  the  Parlor  and 
visiting  brothers  from  the  various  Parlors.  After 
installation,  the  members  adjourned  to  the  banquet- 
room,  where  a  fine  repast  was  served,  Among  the 
prominent  speakers  was  Bro.  Dijean,  who  enter- 
tained the  brothers  with  numerous  stories  of  his 
life  and  adventures,  and  witty  sayings.  After 
brothers  Sink,  Wolf,  Rowe,  Derby,  Kosher,  Dean, 
and  the  visitors  had  made  remarks,  past  president 
J.  C.  Egeberg  was  presented  with  a  beautiful 
badge  by  D.D.G.P.  Cutler.  In  response,  the  recipi- 
ent said  it  was  always  customary  to  say,  "this  is 
such  an  unexpected  surprise,"  but  it  was  not,  for 
him.  "Bear  in  mind,  I  have  been  looking  forward 
to  this  for  the  past  two  years,"  he  continued,  and 
the  remark  was  received  with  much  laughter  and 
applause.  The  members  adjourned  at  a  late  hour, 
pledging  a  hearty  support  to  the  Native  Sons  Hall 
Association  and  the  Order  in  general.

"I  am  trying  to  secure  a  complete  set  of 
reports  of  the  Minutes  of  the  Grand  Parlors

"Can  you  get  me  from  your  own  copies  of 
thrown-aside  records,  or  from  old  volumes 
thrown  aside  in  Parlor  lockers,  a  copy  of  any 
year  between  1878  and  1905?  It  will  be 
greatly  appreciated  if  you  can  do  so. 

"Drop   me   a   post-card,    and  let  me   know 
how  much  you  can  help  in  making  up  a  full 
set  for  the  office. ' ' 
I

PLACERVILLE  NATIVES  NOW  OWN  FAMOUS  OLD  STAGE  COACH. 

Placerville — Placerville  Parlor,  No.  9,  has  purchased  the  famous  old  stage  coach  pictured  above,  which 
originally  cost  $1800,  but  was  going  to  ruin  at  Cool,  El  Dorado  County.  The  Parlor  has  had  the  inter- 
esting relic  removed  to  the  Native  Sons  Home  at  Coloma,  where  it  will  be  repaired  and  preserved. 

This  coach  was  once  used  in  one  of  the  relays  of  the  old  "St.  Joe  and  'Frisco"  stage  line.  "Cap" 
Lewis,  one  of  the  last  of  the  famous  Nevada  and  California  stage  drivers,  brought  it  to  this  State  many 
years  ago  from  Nevada,  moving  his  family  to  Georgetown  in  it.  The  coach  did  service  for  many  years 
between  Georgetown  and  Auburn,  and  during  the  great  railroad  strike  in  1894  it  was  put  on  a  regular 
run  between  Auburn  and  Sacramento,  six  horses  being  attached  to  it  each  trip,  and  it  was  always  crowd- 
ed with  passengers. 

The  photograph  from  which  the  above  cut  was  made  was  taken  especially  for  The  Grizzly  Bear  by 
D.D.G.P.  George  F.  Heindel  of  Georgetown,  at  the  request  of  Placerville  Parlor.

ber of  members  were  present  and  after  the  meeting 
a  banquet  was  served  in  the  banquet-room,  during 
which  many  of  the  brothers  responded  to  the  call 
of  the  toastmaster  with  speeches,  songs  and  stories. 

Petaluma  Parlor  has  been  unusually  active  along 
the  lines  of  restoration  of  historic  landmarks  since 
acquiring  possession  of  the  Old  Adobe,  with  its  five 
acres  of  fine  grounds.  In  this  connection,  Peta- 
luma Parlor  desires  to  thank  most  sincerely  every 
Parlor  and  individual  who  assisted  the  work  of  re- 
storing the  Old  Adobe,  by  taking  the  tickets  on  the 
automobile  that  the  Parlor  raffled  last  July,  and 
which  was  won  by  L.  B.  Hart  of  Petaluma,  with 
ticket    412. 


Items  for  this  department  are  solicited 
from  Subordinate  Parlors,  but  it  must  be 
borne  in  mind  that,  to  insure  prompt  publica- 
tion, the  same  must  reach  the  publishers  not 
later  than  the  20th  day  of  each  month. 

Items  arriving  after  that  date  will  have  to 
be  held  back,  without  further  notice  to  the 
senders.  So  if  your  Parlor  news  does  not  ap- 
pear promptly,  you  will  know  why.

Jr.;    inside    sentinel,   M.    P.    Preciado;    outside    sen- 
tinel,  J.  S.  Sawyer;   trustee,   K'.  W.  Brazleton. 

The  members  of  the  Parlor  are  greatly  concerned 
over  t lie  damage  suffered  by  the  famous  "Arrow- 
head" (from  which  the  Parlor  derives  its  name) 
during  the  recent  fieree  forest  fires  in  the  San  Ber- 
nardino  Mountains.  While  it  is  not  intended  to 
interfere  in  Nature's  handiwork,  a  committee  from 
the  Parlor  consisting  of  G.  M.  Hale,  W.  E.  Kier 
and  -1.  S.  Bright  has  been  appointed  to  take  any 
necessary  steps  to  insure  the  protection  and  preser- 
vation  of  this   noted  landmark. 


was  won  by  the  former  after  an  exciting  contest. 
Marcus  Grimes  was  declared  victor  in  the  100-yard 
dash.     The  affair  was  pronounced  the  Parlor's  most 

successful    effort    :i  long    i  his    line. 


Native  Daughters  and  Pioneers  have  been  invited 
to  take  part  in  the  day's  observance,  and  a  band 
has  been    engaged   for   the   day. 


Faitnful    Service    Rewarded. 

San  Rafael— D.D.G.P.  Harry  J.  Thomas  of  Sau- 
salito  has  installed  the  officers  of  Mt.  Tamalpais

banquet,  at  which  Grand  Trustee  George  F.  Welch, 
.1.    Emmet    Hayden   and  D.   Q.   Troy   were   speakers. 

On  August  14th,  Don  Stephen  Richardson,  an 
honored  member  of  the  Parlor  sixty  years  of  age, 
was  presented  with  a  gold  emblematic  badge  in 
recognition  of  faithful  service  to  the  Parlor,  and 
as  a  token  of  esteem.  Mr.  Richardson  celebrated 
his   sixtieth   birthday  anniversary,   August  3rd. 


To  Picnic  on  the  Ninth.- 
Areata — At  an  enthusiastic  meeting  of  Areata

an  Admission  Day  celebration  at  Carlotta.  All  the 
Humboldt  Parlors  of  Native  Sons  and  Native 
Daughters  will  join  in  the  festivities.  Each  year 
these  Parlors  get  together  to  celebrate  the  State's 
birthday,  and  this  year's  gathering  bids  fair  to 
amuse  the  same  general  interest  as  previous  oc- 
casions.

ing was  indulged  in  until  supper  time,  when  light 
refreshments  were  served,  following  which  the 
light  fantastic  was  in  order  until  a  late  hour.  Dur- 
ing the  evening,  L.  J.  Price,  on  behalf  of  the  Par- 
lor, presented  senior  past  president  B.  N.  Cook 
with  a   handsome   regalia  significant  of  his  rank. 

There  is  talk  of  a  side-show  at  some  meeting  in 
the  near  future.  A  few  suggestions  offered  include: 
Herman  Lewald,  the  kissing  bug,  who  will  tame 
wild  flowers;  Fred  Berry  will  punch  a  hole  in  a 
paper  bag;  Robert  Cooper  will  feed  raisins  to  the

something  new  and  original;  H.  J.  Lohman  will

harvesting  grapes  for  wine  and   raisins. 


Third  Annual  Ball. 
Alton — The  third  annual  dance  of  Golden  Star 
Parlor,  No.  8S,  July  29th,  was  the  most  successful 
affair  ever  given  by  the  Parlor.  Irwin  Bryant 
acted  as  floor  manager,  and  good  music  was  pro- 
vided. During  the  midnight  hour.  Golden  Rod  Par- 
lor, No.  165,  N.D.G.W.,  whose  members  were  espe- 
cially invited  to  the  dance,  served  a  delicious 
supper.

Redding — Through  the  efforts  of  McCloud  Par- 
lor, No.  149,  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters 
from  Red  Bluff  up  the  valley  to  Sisson  enjoyed  a 
delightful  day  at  the  foot  of  Mt.  Shasta,  July  10th. 
There  was  a  great  crowd  on  the  special  train  and 
this  was  much  enlarged  on  the  train's  arrival  at 
Sisson,  the  destination.  The  picturesqueness  of  old 
Shasta  and  the  Surrounding  country  was  especially 
enjoyed,  as  were  also  the  interesting  sights  at  the 
State  fish  hatchery.  The  day's  event,  however, 
was  a  ball  game  at  3  p.m.,  between  the  Redding 
Tigers  and  a  Sisson  team,  which  was  won  by  the 
Sissonites  by  a   score  of  b*  to  2.

annual  outing  and  barbecue  at  Long  Bridge,  Aug- 
ust 13th,  and  a  large  number  of  members  attended

rangements consisted  of  Dr.  W.  A.  Gaston  (chair- 
man). Arthur  Thomas,  E.  B.  Devine,  Harry  Jung 
and  J.  M.  Waterman.  After  partaking  of  a  splen- 
did barbecue  at  noon,  the  afternoon  was  given  over 
to  games  and  sports.  In  a  fifteen-minute  tug-of- 
war  between  the  bachelors  and  married  men,  the 
latter  were  declared  the  winners.  A  swimming 
match    between    Bert    Eubanks   and    Thomas    Fuller 


Presented  With  Old  Landmark. 
Truckee — Dave  Smith  has  presented  to  Donner 
Parlor,  No.  162,  a  log  cabin,  the  oldest  landmark 
in  this  historic  place,  which  had  to  give  way  to 
the  march  of  progress  for  a  business  building.  The 
Parlor  has  decided  to  take  the  logs  and  erect  a  hall 
for  its  use  on  a  lot  recently  purchased.

Redlands — RedJands  Parlor,  No.  168.  Riverside

enjoyable  meetings.  At  10  o'clock  fifty-five  mem- 
bers of  the  Order  were  seated  around  the  banquet 
board  and  proceeded  to  partake  of  an  elaborate  list 
of  edibles.  Then  came  the  speech-making,  over 
which  Leslie  A.  Stern,  president  of  the  Parlor,  pre- 
sided. At  the  conclusion  of  his  welcoming  remarks, 
he  presented  Arthur  P.  Forni,  junior  past  president, 
an  emblematic  jewel,  in  behalf  of  the  Parlor.  Past 
Grand  President  Henry  C.  Gesford,  District  Attor-

CHARLES    KEELEKS    ORIENTAL    TOUR. 

\  l      I  B  E  R    <>  T     2  E  A  B  s     Ai;o. 

I  liarlea    Keeler,   the    Berkelej     | t, 

concei\  ing  tin1  idea  that  a  st ill 
closer  communion  with  nature  than 
that  he  already  enjoyed  would  be 
conduoi \  <•  tn  :i  greater  perfecl  ion  of 
his  art ,  erect f>\  :i  at udio  in  t  he 
<  lareraonl  liills.  it  is  built  upon  a 
rock,  a  portion  of  which  forms  the 
fireplace.  A  tittle  spring  bubbles  up 
from   under  tins  same   rock,  and   its 

waters    feed    tlit'     winding    stream     ill 

the  canyon  below.  Between  the  rust  ic  bridge 
across  the  canyon  and  the  studio,  Mr.  Keeler  has 
begun  an  open  air  theater  in  which  about  500  pen- 
pi.'  may  be  seated.  It  is  the  studio,  however,  that 
claims  our  attention,  for  here  has  the  poet,  in  the 

midst     lit'    books,    curios    and     other      phases      of      art 

w  hich  he  has  collected  in  ids  travels,  worked  year 
after  year,  not  alone  on  the  art  of  writing  poetry, 
luil  on  all  the  aits,  tor  he  believes  that  true  poetry, 
after  all,  is  bul  the  reflection  of  the  combined  arts. 
I  [ere  has  he  written  many  strong  and  beautiful 
poems,  plays  and  bunks  of  prose;  and  here,  too,  has 
he   planned   a    must    unique   trip  around   the   world. 

Mr.  Keeler  leaves  San  Francisco  for  this  tup 
August  30th.  Wherever  he  finds  a  sufficient  num- 
ber <•!'  English-speaking  people  to  justify  a  recital, 
he  will  rend  from  his  poems  and  plays.  Whenever 
a  singer  ran  be  procured,  those  of  ins  poems  which 
.Mrs.  Simonds  has  set  to  music  will  be  sung.  His 
Grsl  Stop  will  I'e  at  Honolulu;  from  there  to  .Japan. 
where  he  will  remain  about  a  month ;  thence  to 
China  fur  about  the  same  length  of  time,  and  so  on, 
reaching  Batavia  for  the  Christmas-time,  and  the 
Mediterranean  ei  untries,  in  the  spring-time.  From 
t  here  he  will  loir  Europe,  reaching  the  great  cap- 
itals, not  dirt cl  From  '  alifornia,  but  after  having 
made  an  Oriental  tour.  II  is  stay  in  Europe  has  not 
yet  been  |  lanned  for  in  detail,  but  we  of  Califor- 
nia know  II  thai  Mr.  Keeler  is  an  interpreter 
of  all  natu  e  in  terms  of  the  ideal,  and  that  wher- 
ever he  goes   in    Europe,  lie  will  be  appreciated. 

Mr.  Keeler  lias  a  ranged  several  programs,  giv- 
ing much  thought  to  the  arrangement,  for  each  one 
is  marked   I ■;.    great    variety.     They  are  divided  into 

three  pa'  1  s.  The  first  consists  of  poems  which 
show  the  poet 's  deep  sympathy  for  struggling  hu- 
manity: the  next,  of  poems  written  for  children, 
and  the  third  dealing  with  the  lighter  side  of  some 
phase  of  life.  It  was  the  writer's  pleasure  to  lis- 
ten to  one  of  the  poet's  recitals.  The  rendition 
was  most  impressive,  for  Mr.  Keeler  possesses  that 
drama  tie  power  which  marks  the  true  artist.  His 
voice  is  mo-t  pleasing  ami  of  a  quality  which  car- 
ries well.  Wherever  he  may  go,  it  is  safe  to  as- 
sume that  more  than  one  program  will  be  asked 
for.  Before  leaving  California,  Mr.  Keeler  will 
give  farewell  recitals  before  prominent  clubs  in 
both    Berkeley   and   San    Francisco. 

Mr.  Keeler  is  the  author  of  a  number  of  well- 
known  books,  and  his  friends  are  all  looking  for- 
ward to  the  publication,  on  his  return,  of  his  later 
poems.  Though  much  interest  is  being  taken  in 
his  trip,  yet  travel  is  no  new  thing  to  the  poet. 
It  was  while  he  was  on  a  sailing  vessel  bound  for 
Xew  York,  that  he  gathered,  on  the  140-days'  trip, 
material  for  his  "Sailor  Songs."  He  has  spent  a 
year  in  the  South  Sea  Islands.  He  was  a  member 
of  the  Harriman  expedition  to  Alaska,  in  company 
with  John  Muir  and  John  Burroughs.  He  has  had 
many  i  nt erecting  experiences  in  his  own  State, 
having  gone  with  his  wife  for  many  months  into 
the  wilds  of  Mendocino  County,  that  he  might 
study  nature  more  closely;  then  to  San  Juan  Cap- 
istrano  Mission,  using  the  refectory  as  a  studio, 
that  he  might  become  more  familiar  with  Mission 
life;  and  then  on  the  Mohave  Desert,  to  visit,  still 
other   missions. 

Even  while  yet  in  High  School,  the  Department 
of  Agriculture  of  the  United  states  Government 
sent  him  to  Nevada  to  study  the  animals  of  that 
region.  At  the  time  of  the  earthquake,  he  and  his 
wife  were  very  active  in  relief  work.  In  fact.  Mrs. 
Keeler's  death  was  attributed  to  the  fact  that  she 
worked  beyond  her  strength  at  that  time.  Her 
passing  was  an  unusually  sad  one,  in  that  she  and  ber 
husband  had  worked  together  in  the  arts,  she  hav- 
ing illustrated  a  number  of  his  books.  It  is  of  in- 
terest to  know  that  through  Dr.  Jordan  of  Stan 
ford  University,  Dr.  W heeler  of  the  University  of 
California,  ami  other  prominent  people,  Mr.  Keeler 
will    lie   received    in    many    parts   of   the   Orient   not 


a--    a     Stranger,     but     as    a     friend.       Our     | pie     here 

know  Mr.  Keeler  to  be  a  spiritual  interpreter  of 
life  today,  and  that  the  messages  he  lias  1o  gi  \  ,■ 
are  of   rare   value. 


HAROLD   BELL   WRIGHT,   AS   I   KNOW   HIM. 
I  By  E;  W.   Reynolds.) 

If  you    should    look    in   a    directory,    if    there    is   one. 

of  Imperial  County,  California,  you  would  find  this 
entry:  Harold  Bell  Wright,  rancher;  postoffice, 
Meloland.  If  you  look  at  an  old  map  of  California, 
you  will  not  find  Imperial  County,  as  it  was  once 
a  pari  of  San  Diego  County.  Neither  will  you 
find    her    principal    towns    of    El    Centro,    Eoltville, 

Imperial,  Brawley  and  Calexico,  as  they  have  but 
recently  sprung  up  as  if  by  magic.  Here,  in  the 
very  heart  of  great,  desolate  waste  these  thriving 
centers  of  population  are  surrounded  by  more  than 
a  quarter-million  acres  of  rich,  fertile  lauds,  touch- 
ing the  international  boundary  on  the  south — lands 
that     have    been    "  reclaimed  by      irrigation      and 

turned  into  prosperous  farms  and  ranches.  It  is 
truly  a  great  oasis  in  the  desert  of  which,  less  than 
a  dozen  years  ago,  it  was  a  part.  In  years  of  one 
figure,  homes  have  been  built,  trees  have  been 
grown,  crops  have  been  planted  and  garnered,  and 
government  has  been  established.  In  those  few 
years  men  with  indomitable  will  and  courage  to 
meet  every  obstacle  have  put  under  cultivation  au 
empire  unequalled  for  productiveness  anywhere  in 
the  whole  world. 

It  does  one  good,  coming  from  the  busy  throngs 
of  what  we  call  eastern  civilization,  to  meet  and 
mingle  with  these  busy  pioneers — men  of  mental 
strength  and  men  of  physical  strength,  that  have 
known  every  hardship,  but  could  not  resis-  the 
spirit  call  of  the  great  silent  desert.  Here  you  will 
be  disappointed  if  you  expect  to  hear  ''small  talk" 
about  small  things;  but  you  will  find  eon  versa 
tionalists  a-plenty  if  you  care  to  discuss  the  march 
of  civilization,  the  rotation  of  crops,  the  chemistry 
of  soils,  the  conservation  of  our  natural  resources, 
or  engineering  works  like  the  Los  Angeles  aque- 
duct and  the  Panama  Canal,  or  it  may  be.  your 
favorite  author  or  composer,  for  many  of  these  men 
of  action  come  from  the  great  colleges  like  Har- 
vard. Vale  and  Princeton.  It  is  iu  an  atmosphere 
like  this — and  a  part  of  it — we  find  the  man,  who 
with  his  pen  has  set  in  vibration  tin1  heart  strings 
of  millions  of  people.  He  is  not  heralded  in  song 
and  story,  he  is  not  banqueted  and  lionized  at  au- 
thors* and  artists'  clubs,  he  has  had  no  escapades 
for  notoriety.  Then  what  manner  of  man  is  this, 
so  much  a  part  of  Western  progress,  yet  who  writes 
books  that  are  read  by  every  English  speaking 
nation  ? 

To  reach  Tecolote  Rancho  you  leave  your  Bull 
man  at  the  county  seat  and  enjoy  a  very  comfort 
able  drive  eight  miles  due  east,  with  green  fields 
and  verdant  pastures  on  either  side.  There  is  no 
sign  to  mark  the  place  or  tell  you  when  you  have 
reached  your  destination,  but  if  you  know  Harold 
Bell  Wright,  his  tastes  and  habit's,  you  will  instantly 
recognize  his  home — a  large,  comfortable  house  of 
concrete,  built  entirely  on  the  ground,  Spanish  ar- 
chitecture, with  wide  verandas  and  pergola.  There 
is  nothing  in  front  to  shut  out  the  wide  expansive 
view,  while  in  the  rear  are  ranch  houses,  barns  and 
CorralB;  back  of  which  and  extending  to  the  east 
and  west  are  his  acres  of  reclaimed  lands.  In  his 
home  you  will  receive  cordiality  and  hospitality. 
His  devotion  as  a  husband  and  father — for  he  has 
three  boys — will  no  less  impress  you  than  the  de- 
votion he  receives  in  turn.  If  you  arrive  unan- 
nounced you  will  most  likely  find  him  dressed  in 
corduroys,  flannel  hat  and  wide  brim  hat,  or  if  the 
weather  is  very  warm,  he  will  greet  you  in  the  pre- 
vailing khaki,  for  this  rancher  and  man  of  letters 
works  incessantly.  His  zeal  for  pioneer  work  is 
second  only  to  his  love  for  reaching  the  lives  of 
men  and  women  through  the  medium  of  his  pen. 

Mr.  Wright  arises  with  the  sun,  goes  over  the  in 
tended  work  for  the  day.  gives  instructions  to  his 
foreman,  and  theu  after  having  breakfasted  he 
spends  some  time  in  the  pasture  with  his  horses, 
where  if  you  should  be  an  unobserved  observer  you 
will  hear  him  talkiug  to  them  like  the  friends  and 
companions  that  they  are  and  calling  each  by 
name.  Later  you  will  see  him  walking  across  fields 
or  overlooking  the  repairing  or  constructing  of  an 
irrigating  ditch.-  The  afternoon  he  usually  spends 
in  reading  or  writing  or  he  will  take  his  favorite 
saddle  horse  for  a  long  ride,  going  once  more 
beyond  the  bounds  of  civilization  out  into  the  open 


the  great,  silent  desert,     lb'  loves  the  desert,  and 

is  heli I  by  us  magic  spell,  and  no  less  will  it  hold 
you,  should  you  be  so  fortunate  :is  to  stand   beside 

Inn I  he    mesa    and    read    the    unwritten    histm  .     of 

past   ages  and  ages.     After   the   evening    meal    ilns 

man    of   tireless    energ}     spends   an    hour    m     two    with 

his  family,  seemingly  free  from  all  thought  and  all' 
care  for  the  morrow.  Frequently  some  neighbor- 
ing    rancher    calls    for    an    evening    of    rh:it     and     the 

sociability    of   the    family   circle,      if    lie    has   some 

deli nite    literary    work    on    hand    which    he    is    i 

forward     to    completion,    he    will     go     into     his     st  inly 

after  the  family  have  retired,  and  there  not  in- 
frequently till  nearly  d:iwn  the  stillness  is  un 
broken,  save  by  the  scratching  of  his  pen. 

It  is  by  no  means  au  easy  task  for  this  man  "I' 
versatility    to    write   a    novel,    for    tin-    reason    that     he 

does  nothing  in  the  ordinary  way.  He  takes  first 
the  message  that  is  uppermost  in  his  heart  longing 
for  the  pathway  of  expression  to  the  souls  and  ''on 
-in  nre-  of  men  :ind  women.  The  plot  is  then  con 
ceived  to  carry  tie-  message.  This  sometimes  re 
quires  much  time,  labor  and  study,  as  Mr.  Wright 
will  not  use  life  conditions  and  surroundings  with 
which  he  is  unfamiliar.  He  then  writes  the  outline 
of  his  story,  placing  characters,  climaxes  ami  prin- 
cipal incident.  Next  come-  the  -eparate  writing  of 
.1  biography  or  life  history  of  each  character.  He 
now  drafts  the  first,  writing  of  the  dialogue,  or  com- 
plete story,  making  constant  reference  to  the  orig- 
inal   outline    and    a    mon ostant    study    of    each 

character  biography.  In  every  incident  in  the 
story,  before  the  author  allows  his  character  to  act 
or  speak,  he  analyzes  his  or  her  temperament, 
heredity  ami  environment  and  det  erin  i  ues  con 
elusively  just  what  he  or  she  would  do  or  say  under 
the  existing  condition.  Three  and  sometimes  four 
complete  writings  of  a  novel  are  made  before  the 
final  one  is  sent  for  publication.  Sometimes  he  will 
find  a  single  chapter  comparatively  easy  to  write 
and  to  require  but  a  short  time.  However,  I  have 
known  him  to  sit  in  his  study  with  pencil  in  hand 
and  paper  before  him,  scarcely  shifting  his  position 
for  five  or  six  hours,  and  writing  less  than  a  dozen 
words,  after  which  he  seemed  physically  exhausted. 

Mr.  Wright  's  books  are  the  stamp  of  sincerity  of 
liis  own  life.  His  characters  are  so  personal  to  him 
that  he  seems  himself  but  one  of  them,  and  in  a 
sense  lives  with  them  in  another  world.  Several 
times  when  a  manuscript  had  reached  the  stage 
of  completion  I  have  asked  him  to  read  for  me  cer- 
tain chapters  and  invariably  he  would  feel  so  much 
a  part  of  the  action  and  so  nearly  akin  to  the  char- 
acters that  before  finishing  the  chapter  he  would 
be  -.i  overcome  with  emotion  that  I  would  have  to 
finish  the  chapter  for  myself.  He  simply  cannot 
read  aloud  certain  chapters  of  his  own  writings. 
He  finds  the  great  strain  in  writing  comes  in  the 
lasl  few  weeks  before  tlie  book  is  finished.  After 
completing  ''The  Calling  of  Ban  Matthews'*  he  was 
all  hut  confined  to  his  lied  for  more  than  a  month. 

Harold    Bell    Wright     is    a     man    of    exemplary    and 

temperate  habits  and  the  soul  of  geniality.  I  have 
never  known  him  to  use  a  profane  word,  or  become 
cffensivs   in   Ins  talk   or   manner       He   is   retiring   in 

disposit modest   to  a   marked   degree,  a  lover  of 

truth  and  a  hater  of  pretense.  He  speaks  to  whom- 
ever he  meets  in  passing  and  never  fails  to  add  a 
few  remarks  or  pleasantries.  His  neighbors  admire 
him  and  love  him  akin  to  hero-worship;  not  because 
of  what  he  has  done,  but  because  of  the  life*  and 
character  back  of  it  all,  dominated  as  it  is  by  the 
highest  of  ideals,  the  purest  of  motives,  and  the 
sincerest  of  purposes.  But  a  short  distance  hack  of 
his  house,  lies  just  one  single  acre  of  desert  in  all 
ifs  primitiveness,  with  its  hummocks,  mesquite  and

greasewood.  To  this  spot  Mr.  Wright  will  soon 
remove  his  primitive  study  to  stand  as  a  memory 
to  the  writing  of  "The  Calling  of  Dan  Matthews" 
and  "The  Winning  of  Barbara  Worth"  until  car- 
ried away  by  relic  hunting  tourists;  and  if  these 
keep  on  the  increase  it  will  not  last  long  unless  Mr. 
Wright  sees  fit  to  give  it  protection. 

I  have  finished  reading  the  final  writing  of  "The 
Winning  of  Barbara  Worth/'  as  clean  a  story  as 
man  ever  wrote.  Prom  the  first  compelling  line  of 
the  first  chapter  the  interest  quickly  becomes  in- 
tense, and  increases  with  every  page  to  the  final 
climax  comparable  to  Hugo's  "Waterloo."  This 
master  hand  of  fiction  has  exceeded  his  own  past 
efforts.  His  characters  are  life-like,  descriptions 
fine,  motives  and  incidents  big,  action  rapid  and 
thrilling,  local  color  strong.  I  wonder  if  this  gifted 
author  will  ever  write  a  bigger  story  than  "The 
Winning  of  Barbara  Worth?"  Many  thousands  of 
readers  will  ask  themselves  the  same  question,  but 
time  only  holds  the  answer.

various  sub-committees  are  arranging  the  details.

stole  and  made  it  a  thieves'  den.  Of  course,  when 
they  stole  they  had  to  be  punished,  so  it  naturally 
came  about  that  the  hangman's  house  and  the  gib- 
bet arose  there,  in  order  to  put  them  to  death.  And 
the  hungrier  they  were,  the  more  the  hangman  had 
to  attend  to. 

But  when  the  old  apple  woman's  cart  was  set  up 
in  that  terrible  place,  she  commenced  giving  the 
children  apples  to  eat,  so  they  were  not  so  hungry, 
did  not  steal  so  much  and  grow  up  to  be  thieves, 
and  the  den  passed.  Of  course,  with  no  more  thieves 
to  punish,  the  hangman  took  down  his  gibbet.  And 
then  arose  the  bank  and  security  for  the  kingdom. 

No  one  ever  knew  when  the  old  apple  woman 
ceased  to  stand  by  her  cart,  giving  apples  to  the 
children,  for  they  trained  other  old  women  to  fol- 
low her  noble  example  and  stand  there  just  the 
same,  as  if  she  had  never  died  at  all,  but  lived  on 
forever.  And  the  kings  and  the  queens  saw  to  it 
that  there  were  always  plenty  of  apples  to  give  to 
the  children  from  the  sacred  apple-cart. 


GLORIOUS   HISTORY   OF    THE 

FAMOUS    OLD    PORTSMOUTH. 

The  San  Francisco  Chamber  of  Commerce  Jour- 
nal for  July  has  the  following  interesting,  but 
brief,  history  of  the  famous  old  "Portsmouth," 
that  it  is  hoped  to  have  assigned  to  this  coast: 
"Senator  George  C.  Perkins,  writing  under  date 
of  May  26th,  states,  'I  enclose  a  report  made  by 
me  on  the- bill  to  appropriate  $25,000  to  repair  the 
'Portsmouth,'  and  hope  the  measure  will  carry, 
and  that  we  shall  be  able  to  have  the  vessel  trans- 
ferred to  the  Coast."  Later,  Mr.  Perkins  submit- 
ted a  report  irom  the  Committee  on  Naval  Affairs 
in  favor  of  transferring  the  "Portsmouth,"  and  in 
tins  report  the  following  concise  history  of  the 
"Portsmouth"    is   given: 

U.  S.  S.  Portsmouth,  second  of  the  name.  Built 
at  the  Navy  Yard,  Portsmouth,  N.  H.  (Kittery, 
Me.),  in  1834.  Her  battery  varied  at  different 
periods  from  twenty-two  to  fourteen  guns. 

First  cruise,  1S44-1S48,  in  the  Pacific  under  com- 
mand of  Commander  J.  B.  Montgomery,  squadron 
of  Commodore  J.  D.  Sloat.  Took  a  prominent  part 
on  coast  of  California  in  war  with  Mexico. 

June  3,  1846,  arrived  in  the  harbor  of  San  Fran- 
cisco, California,  and,  July  5,  1S46,  landed  a  party 
of  seamen  and  marines  for  the  protection  of  Amer- 
ican consul  and  citizens,  under  command  of  Lieu- 
tenant J.  B.  Missroon,  United  States  Navy,  and 
Lieutenant  H.  B.  Watson,  United  States  Marine

IX.  OCTOBER,  19 H  No,  6: 

VOLUME  BEGAN  WITH  MAY  NUMBER;  ENDS  WITH  THIS  (OCTOBER)  NUMBER. 


HE  TRAIN  HAD  RESTED  FOR  THE 
night  by  ;i  solitary  spring.  Encir- 
cling ranks  of  luxuriant  cane  had 
kept  its  waters  cool,  and  enabled  it 
to  resist  perennial  draught.  This 
spot  alone  had  power  to  please, 
alone  redeemed  the  waste  from  utter 
ba  rrenness  of  aridity  and  dearth. 
The  oxen  stood  in  their  yokes,  the 
7^»*«L-  for     the     word, 

and  for  a  space  of  leagues  the  way 
was  open.  Beyond  the  level  plain 
that  westward  spread,  a  continuous  range  seemed 
to  deny  passage  and  repel  approach.  This  range 
Mr.  J.  W.  Brier,  Sr.,  volunteered  to  explore,  and 
the  two  young  men  were  willing  to  share  the  fa 
tigue  and  dangers  of  the  undertaking.  It  was 
understood  that  the  wagons,  following  at  leisure, 
would  halt  on  the  margin  of  the  plain,  and  there 
await   the  possibly  belated   return  of  the  scouts. 

The  latter,  filling  their  canteens  from  the  spring 
am]  stowing  a  light  ration,  waved  their  cheerful 
adieu,  and  struck  the  trail  with  such  vigor  that,  while 
they  yet  east  a  lengthened  shadow,  the  grim  moun- 
tain confronted  them  and  the  desert  was  at  their 
backs.  Deeming  it  wise  to  separate  for  the  besl 
results,  they  ratified  a  solemn  covenant,  binding 
each  and  all  to  return  to  the  point  of  start ifig,  and 
there    remain    until    t  he    reunion    was    complete.      An 

obligation  ass I  with  prudence,  should  have  been 

discharged  with  fidelity;  but,  in  situations  of  the 
kind,  it  does  SO  happen  that  men  are  often  influ- 
enced by  considerations  of  personal  convenience, 
safety  or  advantage,  corroborative  proof  of  which 
will    appear   in    the   outcome  of   this   adventure. 

When,  after  a  strenuous  day,  the  leader  returned, 
the  sun  was  shooting  level  beams  across  the  far 
expanse,  and  already  the  night  winds  had  begun 
i  o  moan.  Unless  hi-  companions  had  become  seri- 
ously involved,  they  had  forgotten  or  disregarded 
their  tryst.  In  vain  lie  waited;  in  vain  he  called; 
in     vain     hi-    eye-    sought     the    desert     for    the     white 

wagon  lops  thai  should  have  been  in  view.  Never 
had  he  known  a  keener  disappointment,  a  mori    tie 

prossMlM    sense   of   loneliness   and   loss.      Night    was 

coining  down  upon  the  wilderness  with  cohorts  of 
wind  ami  darkness.  A  dun,  diaphanous  wall,  semi- 
vaporous,  slowly  rose  ti.  obscure  the  mountain-  and 
shut  away  the  light  of  Stars.  There  was  no  time  to 
be  lost  by  parleying  witli  sentiment.  Whatever 
may  have  been  the  cause,  men  had  failed  to  keep 
their  promises,  and  it  was  one  man  against  hunger 
ami  thirst,  weariness  and  .'old.  the  perils  of  a  path- 
less wild,  the  rayless  gloom,  and  horror  of  a  tem- 
pest ridden   night. 

The  lone  pedestrian  decided  to  make  the  spring 
his  objective  point,  Imping  that  soon  the  camp-fires 
would  inform  his  vision  and  direct  his  way.  He 
had  not  pro, -reded  far  when  the  wind,  sweeping 
down  from  the  north  and  every  moment  gathering 
velocity,  bore  him  from  his  course,  impelling  him 
southward  into  the  deep-cut  trail  of  ;i  cyclone,  its 
banks  were  heavily  flanked  with  gigantic,  gnarled 
sage,    and    every    step    was    impeded    by    rocks    and 

1 biers,    impending    boughs    ami    projecting    roots. 

The  fugitive  was  frequently  tripped  and  thrown 
with  violence,  but  he  had  no  time  to  nurse  his 
bruises  or  to  staunch  his  wounds.  In  the  im- 
penetrable darkness  he  hail  no  conception  of  dis- 
tance, direction,   or  the  lapse   of   time. 


A  LONELY  TRAIL 

(Written   for   The   Grizzly  Bear   by   J.   W.   BRIER, 
Lodi,  California.) 

Panting  from  exertion,  his  garments  wet  with 
perspiration,  on  he  plunged,  while  minutes  were 
multiplied  into  hours,  and  miles  into  leagues.  U 
would  have  been  madness  to  attempt  an  escape 
from  the  wash.  The  wilderness  was  full  of  howl- 
ing, shrieking  furies  under  the  terror  of  lash  and 
sting,  rank  crowding  upon  rank  in  the  confusion  of 
frenzied  flight  and  swift,  unrelenting  pursuit.  Ob 
servation  would  have  been  impossible  even  had 
the  sky  been  clear,  the  stnrs  shining  and  the  moon 
at  full.  as.  in  this  quarter,  the  desert  was  over- 
grown with  greasewood  and  sage,  of  compact  mass 
ami  huge  proportions.  In  the  protection  of  bush 
or  bank,  rest  was  prohibited  by  the  intensity  of 
the  cold  which,  in  the  certain  event  of  sleep,  must 
have  proved  fatal;  but  in  t he  wild  and  swirling 
current  that  swept  everything  before  it.  every  eon 
sideration  yielded  to  the  madness  of  flight.  The 
hardy  Pioneer,  the  finder  of  desert  paths,  was  only 

an    at before    the    fierce    impulsion    that    hurled 

him  whither  he  know  not.  into  what  maze  or  peril. 
or  to   what   distance   from  Ins  family  and  friends. 

At  length,  to  Ins  vast  astonishment,  great  walls 
of  rock  lose  on  either  hand,  and  he  was  confronted 
by  an  acclivity  over  which,  perhaps,  during  centur- 
ies, myriad  waters  from  bursting  clouds  had  taken 
their  plunge,  A-  nearly  as  he  could  judge,  it  was 
midnight.  The  wind  had  abated,  partly  from  ex- 
haust ion.  and  partly  from  the  resistance  that  piled 
it  against  the  mountains  and  sent  it  in  an  upper 
flow  to  spread  over  all  the  wide  champaign  and 
•  lie    in    murmurs    that    could    not    be    heard. 

With  difficulty  he  clambered  out  of  the  wash,  and 
feeling  Ins  way  on  hands  ami  knees,  gained  a  shelf 
smooth  surface  of  rock  invited  to  repose.  It 
was  a  sheltered  spot,  protected  by  a  rank  growth 
■  if  oily  scrub;  and  here  he  decided  to  kindle  a  fire, 
as  the  ;in  was  bitingly  cold  and  his  garments  damp 
from  the  bmg  and  violent  exertion  he  had  put  forth. 
Gathering  a  quantity  of  inflammable  leaves  and 
twigs,  lie  drew  in-,  serape  about  them,  igniting 
them  with  a  match.  The  crackling  flame  shot  up 
waul  in  a  lofty  spire,  illuminating  the  wild  and 
rugged  scene  and  guiding  him  to  new-  supplies  of 
fuel,  in  the  heat  of  the  conflagration  Ins  clothing 
was  quickly  dried,  and  his  limbs  solaced  with  a 
sense  of  perfect  rest.  The  soft  and  gentle,  though 
insistent,  pressure  of  sleep  admonished  him  to  wrap 
his  mantle  about  him  and  assume  recumbency.  To 
him.  indeed,  this  stony  bed  was  ' '  soft  as  downy 
pillows  are,"  and  he  was  soon  lost  to  conscious- 
ness and    oblivious   to   the   world. 

From  this  state  of  blessedness  he  was  aroused  as 
by  a  shock,  lie  sat  up  and  gazed  about  him  with 
bewildered  eyes.  The  fire  had  long  been  dead, 
nothing  remaining  but  ashes  covered  with  snow. 
The  mountain  sides  and  the  desert  plain  were 
white,  while  the  eager  air  was  searching  and  pene- 
trating. He  sprang  t«i  his  feet,  shook  the  fleece 
from  his  mantle,  and  gazed  out  upon  the  dismal 
scene.  First  he  threw  his  vision  into  distance, 
scanning  the  region  he  had  traversed  in  storm  and 
darkness,  and  then  attempting  to  locate  the  soli- 
tary spring.  He  sought  in  vain  for  the  wagons, 
and    despairingly    dropped    his    eyes    to    tin1    nearer 


view.  Astonishment  and  joy  unspeakable!  There 
Stood,  almost  at  the  base  of  his  crag,  with 
tokens  of  animation  and  cheer  in  newly-lighted 
tires  and  briskly-stirring  forms.  The  intervening 
space  was  quickly  covered,  and  the  too  venture- 
some  explorer  was  soon  embraced  by  Ins  companion 

and    greeted    by    Ins    anxious    friends.       The    incident 

was    closed. 

Presently  the  young  men  who  had  broken  faith 
with  their  leader  also  came  into  camp.  They  had 
a  story  of  their  own,  not  wanting  in  the  thrill  of 
adventure  ami  the  spier-  of  danger,  or  the  fear  that 
nrrends  its  apprehension.  They  had  descended  from 
the  hills  while  yet  the  sun  was  above  their  crest. 
As  t  here  was  no  camp  in  evidence  to  give  them 
weir  mi  no,  they  immediately  went  in  quest  of  it. 
Whether  the  train  hail  borne  to  the  south,  or  re- 
turned  to  the  spring,  it  was  impossible  to  deter- 
mine. Adopting  a  mobile  course,  they  were  soon 
lost  in  the  jungle,  where  night  and  the  tempest 
ovei  t  ook    t  hem. 

Lost  .'  They  could  not  have  been  more 
effectually  lost  in  the  bowels  of  an  Egyptian  pyra- 
mid.    Palpable  darkness  was  over  and  about  them. 

Wind  of  the  sort  that  leaps  and  roars,  shouts  the 
on-.,-!    ,-i  u,l    yells    back     the    cry    of    kindred    demands, 

beat  t hem  with  flails  and  converted  every  bust 
into  a  scourge  for  their  punishment.  Add  to  all 
this  the  tangle,  the  sprawl,  the  gnarled  limbsy-the 
knotted  joint-,  the  elbows,  the  out-shooting  arms, 
the  incredible  altitude  and  spread  of  a  boskage  in 
winch   the  light   of  day   is   measurably  obscured. 

They  managed  to  keep  together  and  made  some 
headway,  whitherward  they  knew  not.  At  length 
they  saw  a  smoky  flare,  so  faint  and  fitful  that  they 
could  form  no  just  judgment  of  its  distance;  but 
they  agreed  that  it  must  be  a  long  way  off.  i  ' 
dently  they  were  in  line  with  the  wagons,  for  in 
such  a  region  the  habitations  of  the  wild  men  are 
never  found.  Regardless  mm  ()J  the  tempest  ami 
the  cruel  scrub  that  disputed  with  them  every  inch 
of  the  way,  they  redoubled  exertion  and  suddenly 
plunged  into  the  open,  to  behold,  in  immediate 
presence,  tie-  camp-fire  for  which  they  sought.  Be- 
fore it  crouched  two  half -naked  savages.  The  sur 
prise  was  mutual;  and  both  parties  emitted  a  yell 
of  terror  that  rose  above  the  roar  and  clamor  of 
the  elements.  The  natives  fled,  leaping  into  the 
jungle  beyond,  and  escaping  from  what  must  have 
been,  to  them,  in  terrible  reality,  a  visitation  from 
the  unknown  world.  The  intruders  soon  reg 
their  composure,  and  were  glad  to  spend  the  re- 
mainder of  the  night  in  comparative  comfort.  When 
the  chill  morning  dawned,  they  had  no  difficulty  in 
finding  their  wu\  to  open  -round  and  locating  the 
i  n.  .-I  mpment   of  thei  r  friends.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


October, 


HOW  SAMTA  ROSA  EECEHVED  UTS  MA: 

(Written  for  The  Grizzly  Bear  by  TOM  GREGORY,  of  Santa  Rosa  Parlor,  N.S.G.W.) 


ANTA  ROSA  DE  LIMA,  TITULAR 
patroness  of  the  capital  city  of  Peru, 
was  born  in  that  place  April  20, 
1586,  and  died  there  August  24, 
1617,  after  her  almost  entire  life  of 
thirty-one  years  had  been  passed  in 
the  austere  existence  of  a  nun  of  St. 
Dominic.  Her  family  was  of  noble 
birth,  in  Old  Spain,  numbering  in  its 
line  many  cultured  and  illustrious 
persons.  Because  of  the  remarkable 
flower-like  beauty  of  the  babe,  her 
face  showing  forth  the  faint  tintings  of  the  queen 
rose  of  Lima,  there  could  be  only  one  fitting  name 
for  her — Rose — and  she  was  named  Rose  of  St. 
Mary.  Even  while  little  more  than  a  child  she 
evinced  the  deep  spiritual  feeling  of  a  person  of 
mature  years,  and  such  was  her  exalted  and  saintly 
character,  that  fifty-one  years  after  her  death  her 
beatification  took  place,  and  in  1671  she  was 
canonized,  by  order  of  Pope  Clement  X,  who  ap- 
pointed August  30th  for  her  feast  day.  In  Lima  this 
day  is  celebrated  in  politico-religious  splendor.  In 
a  great  procession  is  carried  her  image  covered 
with  priceless  jewels  and  decorated  with  the  beau- 
tiful red  roses  for  which  the  South  American  city 
is  famous. 

August  30,  1S29,  Padre  Juan  Amoroso,  the  found- 
er of  Mission  San  Rafael,  with  Jose  Cantua,  an  at- 
tendant, held  religious  services  on  the  bank  of  the 
River  Chocoalomi — the  name  of  the  small  stream 
which  flows  through  the  present  county  seat  of  So- 
noma, and  about  a  mile  above  the  city.  The  zeal- 
ous priest  was  doing  missionary  work,  and  under 
the  trees  was  struggling,  in  language  laboriously 
fitted  to  their  simple  understanding,  to  portray  to 
the  inhabitants  the  godliness  of  the  Peruvian  saint 
— it  being  her  fast  day.  The  spirituality  of  a  Cal- 
ifornia Indian,  the  mission  fathers  found  to  be  a 
rocky  field  to  toil  in,  but  this  day,  Santa  Rosa's 
day.  Padre  Amoroso  labored  not  wholly  in  vain,  as 
one  convert — a  young  girl — expressed  a  willingness 
to  accept  the  faith  of  that  other  girl  spoken  of  by 
the  white  stranger.  He  baptised  her  there,  giving 
her  the  name  of  Rosa.  Then  he  abruptly  ended  his 
ministrations  on  the  Rio  Chocoalomi,  and  the  next 
minute — or  less — he  was  aboard  his  mustang  and 
flying  south-bound  through  the  wild  oats,  with  half 
a  hundred  yelling  Indians  trying  to  stick  him  as 
full  of  arrows  as  St.  Sebastian. 

They  had  sat  around  on  the  banks  of  the  stream 
and  curiously  watched  the  unknown  "medicine 
man"  at  his  strange  ceremonies,  and  they  had  en- 
joyed the  entertainment  until  he  came  to  the  rite 
of  baptism.  This  mystic  performance  was  too  much 
for  their  primitive  nerves,  and  they  arose  as  one 
"Injun,"  and  the  whole  rancheria  broke  loose. 
Talking  to  the  braves,  even  though  they  did  not 
in  the  least  understand  the  talk,  was  harmless;  but 
bewitching  a  squaw  with  what  seemed  to  be  magic 
incantations  was  a  deadly  peril  to  the  tribe.  Father 
John  safely  reached  Mission  San  Rafael,  thanks  to 
his  good  horse,  which  had  sufficient  Andalusian 
thoroughbred  in  his  heels  to  lead  the  biped  racers, 
and  which  feat  the  priest  fully  appreciated,  for  he 
named  the  animal  ' ( Centella, ' '  a  direct  reference 
to  the  lightning-like  dash  back  to  Marin  County. 
Centua,  after  considerable  dodging  and  doubling 
on  the  trail,  landed  in  San  Rafael  next  day,  his  con- 
dition being  what  may  be  described  as  "all  in." 
The  padre  continued  his  mission  among  the  natives 
of  the  coast,  but  there  is  no  record  of  Jose  ever 
taking  any  more  interest  in  their  moral  advance- 
ment. 

In  the  confusion  of  the  missionary's  hurried 
hegira  from  the  valle  Rosa,  after  this  brief  appear- 
ance. Rosa  slips  wraith-like  out  of  history,  and 
whither  no  man  knoweth.  Such  is  to  be  regretted. 
She  might  have  become  the  wife  of  some  early 
Sonoma  pioneer,  and  the  mahala-mother  of  a  race 
of  F.  F.  C.  blue-bloods,  like  Pocahontas  and  her  Vir- 
ginians; or  she  might  have  been  the  theme  of  an 
immortal  poem  to  tinkle  like  running  water  through 
old  western  forests,  reminding  one  of  Minnehaha. 
But  the  red  people  of  the  Chocoalomi  rushed  the 
white  medicine  man  out  of  the  scene,  and  his  neo- 
phyte back  into  the  wilds,  so  suddenly  that  her 
story  ends  unfinished.  Whether  Rosa  renounced  her 
new  faith  or  suffered  martyrdom  for  it,  and  became 
a  second  edition  of  Santa  Rosa  de  Lima,  no  "early 
settler"  in  voluminous  reminiscence  has  told.  But 
her  name-in-the-church  and  the  name  of  her  saintly 
patroness  live  in  the  stream  whose  lustral  waters 
in  sacred  rite  confirmed  her  Christianity;  live  in  the 
floral  city  of  the  north  where  the  Liman  roses  blow 
in  all  the  beauty  of  the  flower-sisterhood  under  the 
towering  walls  of  the  Andes;  live  in  the  broad  vega 


parked  under  its  oaks,  the  level  llano  mapping  it- 
self out  in  fields  of  unfailing  harvests. 

So  the  story  and  the  name  have  drifted  down  the 
stream  from  the  place  of  baptism — even  changing 
the  stream,  the  pad-re's  Jordan,  to  Santa  Rosa 
Creek;  then  threading  the  Township  of  Santa  Rosa 
and  the  Llano  de  Santa  Rosa,  and  making  a  south- 
ern boundary  for  Raneho  Cabesa  de  Santa  Rosa, 
and  at  the  end  of  its  western  run  emptying  into 
the  Laguna  de  Santa  Rosa,  whence  both  streams, 
meandering  together  northward,  meet  Mark  West 
Creek;  and  then  a  little  farther  westward  all  three 
find  the  Rio  Russ — Russian  River-^and  mingling, 
the  quaret  ripple  on  to  the  sea. 

St.  Rose  of  Lima,  almost  three  hundred  years  in 
her  tomb,  is  but  a  memory  and  a  handful  of  ashes, 
but  her  name  is  pretty  well  spread  over  the  middle 
belt  of  Sonoma  County.  The  Indian  girl  here 
evoked  from  the  forgotten  past  to  round  out  a  tale, 
was  only  a  flash,  an  instant  on  the  scene  and  was 
gone,  but  in  that  breath  of  being  she  was  the  me- 
dium through  which  passed  the  flower-title  from 
saint  to  city — Santa  Rosa. 


A  LONELY  TRAIL 

{Continued  from  Page  1,  Column  3.) 
interesting  account  of  the  trials  and  tribulations 
of  this  Pioneer  band  who  came  to  California  by  the 
Southern  Route.  Much  has  been  written  and  pub- 
lished concerning  the  Death  Valley  Pioneers,  but 
the  accounts  given  by  Mr.  Brier  (whose  mother  was 
also  of  the  party  and  is  still  living,  and  from  whom 
the  facts  in  his  articles  are  obtained)  have  the  great 
value  of  being  founded  upon  truth  and  not  colored 
to  suit  the  fancy  of  writers  who,  in  dealing  with 
Pioneer  events,  are  guided  largely  by  their  own 
imaginations  rather  than  by  the  actual  experiences 
of  those  who  participated  in  the  stirring  events  of 
the  Pioneer  days.  The  articles  published  in  The 
Grizzly  Bear,  from  the  pen  of  J.  W.  Brier,  are  the 
only  ones  so  far  published  giving  an  unvarnished 
account  of  the  Death  Valley  Argonauts'  pilgrimage 
to  California,  and  as  this  band  came  along  a  course 
not  generally  selected,  the  recounting  of  their  suf- 
ferings and  experiences  is  particularly  valuable  to 
those  interested  in  the  State's  early  history.  That 
Mr.  Brier's  articles  are  written  in  a  manner  to  not 
only  hold  the  reader's  close  attention,  but,  of  vastly 
more  importance,  impress  him  with  the  truthfulness 
of  what  is  related,  must  be  admitted  by  the  read- 
ers  of   The   G-rizzly  Bear.) 


AM  INDIAN  LEGEND  OF  SQUAw  o 

(Written  for  The  Grizzly  Bear  by  LUCY  WAKEFIELD,  Sacramento,  California.) 


MOLLO 


HE  LONG  WINTER  WAS  PAST. 
The  spirit  of  spring  hovered  over 
Squaw  Hollow,  tipping  its  trees 
with  tender  green,  starring  its  hill- 
sides with  buttercups,  thrilling  its 
sunshine  with  song.  From  east  to 
west,  in  the  Hollow,  a  stream  wound 
its  way  through  blossomed  willows, 
murmuring  past  oak  and  alder,  pine 
and  maple.  It  eddied  into  a  pretty 
pool  now  and  then,  and  it  was  into 
one  of  these  clear  mirrors,  one 
morning  in  1S6S,  that  a  young  squaw  eagerly  looked. 
Perhaps  she  had  dropped  something.  She  bent 
nearer  and  nearer.  Finally,  she  stooped  low,  lay 
flat  on  her  stomach,  and  drank,  her  face  on  the 
water.  When  she  arose,  she  looked  around  like  a 
startled  fawn.  Some  presence  foreign  to  her  alert 
senses  was  near.  She  gathered  up  the  armful  of 
watercress  she  had  found  and  glided  silently  away. 
Across  the  Hollow  and  up  a  hillside  she  went. 

And  there  was  one  who  watched  for  her.  Sitting 
flat  on  a  granite  boulder,  near  a  rude  hut,  the  girl's 
grandmother  "waited.  The  boulder  had  been  used 
for  years  as  a  household  work-table.  On  its  surface 
lay  several  pestles,  and  into  one  of  its  many  smooth 
mortars  the  grandam  slowly  dropped  shelled  acorns. 
A  squirrel  looked  down  at  her  from  an  oak  limb 
overhead.  He  had  had  his  share  of  acorns,  but  he. 
too,  waited  and  watched.  If  the  young  squaw  did 
not  return,  perhaps  he  could  add  one  more  kernel 
to  his  store,  for  sometimes  the  grandmother  rested 
in  her  vigil  and  then,  how  easy  for  him  to  scamper 
to  the  boulder  and  away!  But  the  girl  came  back, 
and  with  an  impudent  call  to  its  mate,  the  squirrel 
made  for  its  burrow. 

Old  Elizabeth  raised  both  arms  for  the  water- 
cresses,  and  the  bearer  sat  down  on  the  rock  and 
immediately  began  to  pound  the  acorns  with  the 
smallest  pestle  there,  talking  low  and  musically  the 
while.  Elizabeth  babbled  over  the  cresses.  She  was 
young  again,  roaming  the  hills,  marking  the  last 
bit  of  winter,  finding  the  first  bit  of  spring.  The 
world  was  hers  then,  and  her  people's.  Now,  the 
white  man  owned  it,  but  no  one  could  take  from 
her  the  love  of  hill  and  vale,  of  mountain  and 
plain,  of  stream  and  river.  Her  naked  heart  wrap- 
ped itself  in  memories   of  these. 

( l  Grandmother, "    said   the   girl      after      a      short 
silence  of  talking  and  grinding,   "strange   noise  at 
the  stream.     Not  squirrel,  not  bird,  not  deer." 
"Fox,"  suggested  the  listener. 
"Not  fox." 

The  grandmother 's  eyes*  all  but  elosed.  She 
raised  one  hand  to  shade  them  and  peered  into  the 
distance.  Then  her  gaze  wandered  from  wigwam 
to  wigwam  in  the  Hollow.  She  shook  her  head  and 
with  sudden  weird  cries  arose  and  beckoned  the 
granddaughter  into  the  hut.  Strange  pleading 
sounds  burst  from  the  older  woman's  lips — sounds 
that  never  come  unless  the  heart  has  been  forsaken. 
She  had  loved  her  own  child,  her  dear  maiden.  One 
day  a  pale-faced  man  had  made  his  way  to  their 
wigwam,  sick.  He  was  nursed  to  health.  After  his 
recovery  he  lingered  there,  hunting.  One  morning 
the  man  and  the  maiden  were  missing.  Another 
moon,  and  the  girl  came  back,  but  she  was  no  longer 
the  "Laughing  Water"  of  the  settlement,  and  one 


evening,  when  the  sunset  crimsoned  the  west  like 
fire,  the  maiden's  life  went  out  and  she  left  a  tiny 
girl  papoose  to  the  warm  breeze  that  blew  from  the 
south. 

Elizabeth  had  never  told  her  charge  before.  An 
evil  spirit  was  abroad.     It  was  time. 

But  why  should  the  granddaughter  lament?  The 
world  was  beautiful  and  mysterious.  She  was  young 
and  strong. 

An  Indian  strolled  by  their  hut,  a  gun  over  his 
right  shoulder,  a  rabbit  over  his  left.  He  laid  the 
rabbit  on  the  boulder,  where  both  squaws  sat  again. 

"You,"  he  said. 

The  girl   smiled. 

"Cook?"  she  asked. 

"Cook;  eat,"  he  replied,  and  straightway  she 
began  skinning  the  game. 

Elizabeth  looked  on  approvingly.  Her  skillful 
hands,  now  busy  with  her  baskets,  blended  the  mis- 
ery of  the  past  with  the  certain  good  of  the  pres- 
ent. But  when  the  Indian  expressed  a  desire  to 
take  the  girl  to  his  own  hut,  Elizabeth  bent  her 
head  sadly. 

"Me   old,"   she  muttered.      "Not  yet." 

At  that  moment  the  report  of  a  rifle  rang  near, 
and  down  through  the  waxy  leaves  of  the  oak  a 
dead  squirrel  fell  pell-mell,  into  the  grandmother's 
lap.  There  was  the  cracking  of  twigs  from  a  man- 
zanita  thicket  near,  and  a  white  man  strode  into 
the   camp. 

Elizabeth  raised  her  eyes  to  the  stranger's  face. 
She  rose  to  her  feet.  It  was  nearly  seventeen  years 
since  she  had  seen  this  man — this  man  with  eyes 
like  the  sky,  with  hair  like  the  earth.  But  the  moon 
was  in  his  hair  now,  and  the  scar  across  his  face 
was  no  longer  red,  like  blood. 

Pain,  hatred,  revenge,  shone  in  the  still  sharp 
eyes  of  the  Indian  woman.     Fear  held  her  heart. 

And  he  knew  her.  It  was  the  squaw  that  had 
nursed  him  years  before.  He  looked  from  her  to 
the  girl  who  stood  just  outside  the  door  of  the  hut, 
with  face,  eyes,  aye,  her  every  feature,  his  own! 

The  white  man  had  children  at  home  who  be- 
lieved in  him — fair  girls  and  sturdy  boys.  The 
grace  of  this  child's  pure  youth  did  not  appeal  to 
him.  She,  a  squaw,  was  their  sister!  Swift,  un- 
reasoning anger  surged  into  his  heart.  With  an 
oath,  he  raised  his  rifle.  Repentance  of  his  sin  was 
far  removed  from  him. 

The    Indian    man    crouched    like     a     tiger, 
strange    scene   had   but   one   meaning   for   him 
that  was  harm  to  her  he  claimed.     His  shot 
loud  and  true. 

Elizabeth  sank  on  the  rock  in  a  swoon, 
grand- daughter  went  to  the  dead  man.  She 
nearer  and  nearer  to  his  face,  as  she  had  bent  to 
her  own  at  the  stream.  His  was  like  the  face  in 
the  pool,  only  it  was  his. 

Her  lover  watched  her.  As  the  white  man's  fea- 
tures grew  rigid,  the  girl  turned  away  with  a  shud- 
der and  went  back  to  Elizabeth,  who  was  now  moan- 
ing  faintly. 

The  Indian  never  stirred.  The  girl  looked  at  him 
shyly.  His  bravery,  not  his  game,  had  won  her 
heart.

THE      GRIZZLY       BEAR 


Page    3 


BEAR  FLAG  COUNTY'S  ADMISSION  DAY  CELEBRATE© 


HOUSANDS  OF  BEAB  FLAGS 
were  everywhere  to  be  seen  in  Santa 
Rosa  during  the  Admission  Day 
celebration,  September  Bth,  9tb  and 
10th.  The}  decorated  the  streets, 
adorned  the  buildings,  and  were 
carried  by  the  3000  marchers  in  the 
Admission  Day  parade.  The  Bear 
Flag,  always  emblematic  of  the 
Native  Sons  and  Native  Daughters, 
is  particularly  appropriate  for  a 
Santa  Rosa  celebration,  for  the 
reason   thai    it   was   in    Sonoma    County — of    which 

Santa    Rosa   is  thi unty  scat- -that  the  flag  of  the 

"California  Republic"  was  made  and  first  Una-: 
to  the  breeze.  And  then  again,  the  Hoar  Flag  had 
.in  added  value  in  tins  year's  Admission  Day  fes 
tivities,  as  u  has  been,  by  act  of  the  State  Legis- 
lature, designated  the  official  State  flag.  The  cele- 
bration that  has  just  gone  down  into  history,  there 
fore,  can  be  appropriately  termed  the  Bear  Flag 
celebration,  for  the  festivities  were  held  in  the 
Bear  Flag's  birthplace,  on  the  birthday  of  the 
Bear  Flag  state,  and  were  participted  in  by  the 
Bear   Flag's  sons  and  daughters. 

The  Santa  Rosa  Admission  Day  celebration  was 
n  success  beyond  the  fondest  hopes  of  the  com 
mitl C  Santa  Rosa  Parlor,  N.S.G.W.  that  pro- 
moted it  and  worked  unceasingly  for  its  success. 
The  city  was  filled  to  overtlo wing  with  visitors. 
and  the  program  of  entertainment  satisfied  the  most 
exacting.  ri  lie  largest  crowd  was,  of  course,  pres 
ent  in  the  city  on  September  9th,  the  day  of  the 
hig  Admission   Day   parade 

The  parade  was  led  by  Santa  Rosa  Parlor  of  Na- 
tive Sons  and  the  Sonoma  County  Parlors  of  the 
I  trder— Healdsburg,  Glen  Ellen,  Sonoma.  Petaluma 
and  Sebastopol — uniformed  in  white  duck  suits 
With  yellow  sashes,  white  shoes  and  white  hats. 
With  these  I  'ailors  were  three  distinguished  Pio- 
neers— J.  S.  Williams,  who  was  born  at  Healds- 
burg  in  1846  and  is  reputed  to  be  the  first  son  of 
American  parents  born  in  Sonoma  County;  .lames 
Mr<  hiistian.  84  years  old,  who  was  at  Sonoma 
when  t he  Bear  Flag,  or  California  Republic  was  es- 
tablished, June  14,  1846,  and  John  Benton,  a  vet- 
eran of  the  Mexican  War.  The  California  Pioneers 
followed,    in    carriages. 

Then  came  the  several  visiting  Parlors  of  Native 
Sniis  and  Daughters,  each  delegation  attractively 
uniformed  and  escorted  by  a  band  or  drum  corps. 
As  the  3000  marchers  passed  through  the  several 
streets  set  aside  for  the  pageant,  they  were  loudly 
cheered  by  25,000  people  who  lined  both  sides  of 
the   route.

"THEN  AND  TO-DAY." 
The  following  poem,   written  for  the  occasion  by 
Julius  Myron  Alexander,  a  past  president  of  Healds- 
burg   Parlor.   No.  68,   N.S.G.W.,  was  a   feature  of  the 
literary  exercises  following  the  parade: 

Sixty-one  years — Time  marks  as  measured  mile-posts 
Between  "Today"  and  "Then" — Oh  serried,  tramp 

ling  hosts! 
"Then"'  with  its  wearied  footprints  on  the  parched 

sand. 
Hoot  tracks  of  the  desert,   Westward   to   this  Golden 

Land; 
' '  Then ' '     hungered,     sleepless,     guarding     day     and 

night, 


Guarding    'ga  in  si    the  arrow    in    it*   deadly    feathered 

flight; 
Strewn  along  the  pathway,  Pones  all  bleaching 
Tramping  Westward,  evei    Wi    tward,  paying 

fare, 
<  ame   I  he    Argonaut  -    from    I  !a  I  n  a  rd    i  o   a    laud    in 

sunlight  born, 
To   a   land   like  colored   pictures  of   the   sunset    and 

t  he    morn. 

"Then"  through  Gates  o'er  silver  waters  gleaming 

Came  white  ships,  with  sail   and   banner  strej nj> 

Battered  by  the  tempest,  gale  and  storm, 

Hearing    men.    with    hearts    like    throbbing    enginos 

in    their   form; 
''ame  these  men  for  golden  treasure; 
Came,  as  recking  hardships,  only  pleasure; 
Came  to  measure  life  aga  in  si   the   Western   cliffs, 
To   track   the   canyons,   and   the    snow    in    deepesl 

drifts; 
Met   upon  the  mountains,  these  men  of  land  and   sea; 
Fought    lor    life    and    treasure,    by    their    Grizzly    eom 

rade  free. 

' '  Then        from    high    upon    the    mount  a  ins, 

1 ked    these    men    from    frozen    fountains 

Down   toward   the   valleys;    toward   the  sunset    m   the 

West ; 
Saw    the    green    of     stretching     meadows;      saw     the 

weary   storm   at    rest ; 
Heard     the     ringing    of     the     bells,     of     the    bells     the 

Padres  rang; 
Heard   the   echo  of  then*  chanting,  of  the  chanting 

songs   they  sang; 
Heard    the    lowing    of    the    cattle;    saw    the    blooming 

flowers  afield; 
Heard    the    story    of    the    harvest,    of    its    great    and 

bounteous  \  ield. 
"Then"    they    came    from    off   the    mountain,    to    the 

valley  and   the   lea. 
Game  these  men  of  desert  and  these  men  from  o  Vi 

the  sea. 

•'Today'-   is  but  the  building  of  these  men  of  long 

ago; 
"Today"'   is  but    the   granite   they  bore  across   the 

snow. 
They  were  grizzled  in  their  setting,  they  were  hard 

ened  like  the  steel; 
They  stood  like  statues  chiseled,  like  trees  that  tem- 
pest  feel. 
Getter   than   they    knew,   they    builded    in    their   day; 
The  corner  and  the  key  stone  they  cut  from  granite 

gray ; 
Sleeping  now  these  builders    beneath    this    Western 

sun; 
A     few     with    helmets    whitened    await    their    sands 

to  run. 
■'Todav''  is  but  the  stone  thev  carved  with  letters 

boid; 
''Todav*'  is  but   the  building  of  those  Pioneers  of 

old. 

Oh  Cities,  builded  with  your  iron  gird  and  beam! 
( >h    Valleys,   where   the   ripening   harvests   gleam! 
'  Hi    Mountains,  peaking  to  the  ether  blue! 
And  trees  of  forest  in  your  towering  strength  that 

grew ! 
Rivers  running  to  the  restless  ocean's  sweep' 
Orchards,    in    your   fruitage,    gold   and    purple    deep! 
Oh  State!    On  this  our  Golden  Western  State! 
"Today"   the    record   of   thy   birth,    thy    deeds   are 

great. 
Across   thy   mountains  and   thy   plains,    we'll    cut    in 

letters   bold, 
"Our    Fathers  and   our   Mothers,       the    Pioneers   of 

old.

THE  MARVELOUS  TALE 

OF    THE    I-MEE-MI-MLNES. 

EAR  BROTHERS  AND  SISTERS  OF 
the  Native  Sons  and  Native  Daugh- 
ters of  the  Golden  West,  read  this 
story  to  your  boys  and  girls  and  see 
if  they  understand  it,  for  it  is  just 
as  true  today  as  it  was  in  the  days 
of  early  California,  or  at  any  time 
in  the  long  ago.  In  those  early  days, 
kind  neighbors  used  to  be  nice  to 
the  children  and  do  many  things  to 
make  them  happy,  and  today  the 
same  thing  is  going  on.  Think  of 
all  the  splendors  given  by  Mrs.  Jane  Stanford  to 
endow  the  university  at  Palo  Alto.  Do  you  know 
the  half  of  what  that  lovely  friend  of  the  young. 
Mrs.  Phoebe  Hearst,  has  done,  and  is  still  doing, 
not  only  for  the  university  at  Berkeley,  but  also 
for  the  personal  benefit  of  many  young  women  and 
men  who  are  so  fortunate  as  to  cross  her  path? 
Well,  it  is  not  easy  to  do  things  for  children,  be- 
cause some  of  them  do  not  appreciate  these  favors 
and  gifts.  But  I  do  not  want  our  kind  neighbors 
to  be  discouraged,  so  I  am  telling  you  this  month, 
for  The  Grizzly  Bear  Magazine,  the  marvelous  tale 
of  the  fairy  who  met  some  strange  creatures  called 
I-mee-mi-mines: 

Once  upon  a  time  there  was  a  fairy  named  Con- 
sideree,  who  had  traveled  so  far  and  learned  so 
much  that  she  was  completely  tired  out,  and  a  great 
longing  came  over  her  to  return  to  her  old  home 
in  the  forest  and  hide  herself  from  every  eye.  It 
was  not  a  proud,  pillored  place,  but  merely  a  small 
sort  of  tower  in  the  wood,  which  was  hers,  and  she 
thought  how  happy  she  would  be  to  find  herself 
there  once  more.  So  she  summoned  the  Afreet,  Je 
Madjo,  and  he  placed  an  airship  at  her  disposal 
and  lifted  thereon  all  the  beautiful  things  she  had 
gathered,  and  took  her  safely  across  ocean  and  over 
land  until  he  set  her  down  in  front  of  her  own  little 
tower  in  the  wood.  Then  eqnie  some  useful  brown- 
ies and  set  to  work  to  unpack  and  arrange  the  eon- 
tents  of  her  boxes,  so  that  inside  the  tower  you 
could  gaze  for  hours,  studying  all  the  walls  covered 
with  interesting  things  from  many  lands. 

Of  course  all  the  other  fairies  in  the  counties 
roHndabout  heard  of  the  return  of  Fairy  Consideree 
and  upon  an  appointed  day  there  came  fifty  of  them 
to  give  her  greetings  and  welcome  her  home.  But 
each  one  was  so  busy  with  her  own  work  in  her 
<>wn  tower  that  many  months  passed  and  Consideree 
was  well  rested  and  began  to  be  lonesome.  She 
used  to  fly  around  the  forest  (invisible,  of  course,) 
and  watch  the  stars  by  night  and  the  flowers  and 
trees  by  day  and  make  pictures  of  the  butterflies 
and  the  moths;  but  most  of  all,  she  found  herself 
studying  the  pigmies  of  the  forest,  for  there  were 
many  of  them.  They  had  most  tremendous  voices 
and  were  always  ordering  things  around  as  if  they 
owned  the  earth  and  everything  on  it.  At  certain 
hours  not  one  was  to  be  seen  anywhere,  and  then, 
all  at  once,  they  would  troop  out  of  their  hiding 
places,  a  short  time  before  sunset,  with  their  erom- 
mous  voices  turned  on  as  if  they  meant  to  split 
the  very  skies.  And  they  would  rush  at  each  other 
in  sham  battles,  try  to  butt  each  other  with  their 
tunny  little  horns,  and  roar  so  that  the  very  ani- 
iimls  would  fly  from  before  them.  Sometimes  she 
caught  them  destroying  flowers  and  trees,  or  break- 
ing thij  windows  of  the  few  houses  here  and  there 
in  the  forest,  and  with  a  whoop  they  would  disap- 
pear  into  their  holes  in  the  ground,  where  nobody 
could  follow  them. 


More  and  more  Consideree  became  lonesome.  She 
kept  thinking,  ' '  Can  I  possibly  catch  one  of  these 
pigmies,  fetch  it  in,  feed  it,  tame  it,  and  turn  it 
into  a  being  that  will  be  company  for  me,  I  will 
teach  it  wonderful  arts,  tell  it  the  secrets  of  Fairy- 
land, share  my  treasures  with  it."  But  the  pigmy 
was  a  kind  of  glegeen,  and  did  not  know  which  side 
of  its  bread  was  buttered,  neither  did  it  know 
enough  to  go  in  when  it  rained.  It  was  half  blind 
;mk1  could  only  see  what  was  in  front  of  its  nose, 
and  as  its  nose  was  turned  toward  the  back  of  its 
head  most  of  the  time,  you  can  imagine  what  a  lot 
of  tumbles  the  poor  thing  had  when  it  was  walking 
along,  all  wiggly-woggly.  Sometimes  Consideree 
decided  that  they  were  a  kind  of  tadpole — polly- 
wog  creatures  on  land — because  they  wriggled  all 
the  time,  but  she  felt  sure  that  some  of  them  out- 
grew this  peculiar  stage  of  existence,-  because  occas- 
ionally she  saw  other  beings  come  running  out  sud- 
denly and  drag  the  pigmies  into  their  holes  when 
danger  was  nigh.  When  the  dragon  of  the  forest 
appeared,  rushing  along  with  its  fiery  eyes  and 
breathing  smoke  from  its  nostrils,  many  hands  ap- 
peared to  draw  back  these  glegeens  from  its  fearful 
path,  and  to  hide  them  safely  away.  She  was  quite 
sure  these  were  the  older  ones,  who  had  outgrown 
this  pollywog  stage,  and  had  arrived  at  a  higher 
plane  of  existence.  Pretty  soon  she  noticed  there 
were  two  kinds  of  these  pigmies  running  around, 
and  that  the  one  with  long  tresses  was  milder  than 
the  other.  Nevertheless,  they  all  seemed  as  wild 
as  birds  of  the  air. 

More  and  more  lonesome  became  Consideree,  al- 
though she  was  busy  at  her  spinning  of  fine  silken 
threads  and  weaving  them  all  together  in  her  loom, 
for  she  had  the  arts  of  weaving  and  spinning  down 
to  a  science.  She  kept  thinking  of  these  queer  little 
creatures  all  the  time.  "I  should  be  satisfied,"  she 
was  saying  to  herself,  "if  even  one  of  the  freckled 
ones,  with  big  ears,  would  come  and  get  tamed." 
All  at  once  she  heard  a  faint  sound,  as  if  something 
alive  were  rustling  on  the  tower  stair  outside.  She 
rah  and  opened  the  door.  Sure  enough,  there  w;as 
a  pigmy,  and  it  was  one  freckled  like  a  turkey 's 
egg.  It  had  large  ears,  like  handles,  to  its  head, 
and  odd  black  eyes,  far  apart,  with  frowsy  red  hair 
and  the  funniest  little  horns  you  ever.  saw.  Con- 
sideree tan  for  a  box  of .  sweetmeats  and  offered 
them  to  the  glegeen,  who  was  really  sitting  there, 
very  still,  as  if  quite  at  home.  He  looked  at  her 
comically  and  took  one — only  one — and  said  some- 
thing in  the  piermy  language  that  sounded  as  if  it 
meant  to  say,  "Thanky,  ma'am."  How  pleased 
Consideree  was,  as  she  replied,  "You  are  welcome." 
And  after  that  it  often  sat  there  and  she  always 
gave  it  something  sweet  to  eat.  One  day  there  was 
a  fair-haired,  blue-eyed  little  glegeen  sitting  there 
beside  the  freckled  one,  and  it  was  one  of  the 
milder  ones  with  scarcely  any  horns  at  all,  and  soon 
Consideree  had  tamed  two  of  them.  It  was  not 
long  then  until  they  doubled  and  quadrupled  in  num- 
ber until  her  stair  was  full  of  the  queer  little  things, 
scrambling  and  rustling  like  so  many  bats  in  a  cave. 

At  last  she  gave  them  a  feast  by  day  and  a  bonfire 
by  night,  and  bade  them  all  come  in  the  next  day 
and  she  would  share  with  them  her  beautiful  things 
— her  embroidered  satins  and  silks,  bows  and  ar- 
rows, musical  toys,  lovely  story-books — and  teach 
them  the  secrets  of  the  fairies.  So  they  all  eame — 
fair  ones,  dark  ones,  freckled  ones,  fierce  ones,  mild 
ones,  pretty  ones,  and  homely  ones.  She  had  learned 
a  few  words  of  the  pigmy  language  by  this  time, 
and  she  asked,  "Who  would  like  a  book  to  take 
home?"  All  at  once  the  most  terrible  uproar  be- 
gan, and  all  she  could  make  out  of  it  was  the  word 
"I-mee-mi-mine,"  repeated  a  hundred  times.  So 
she  changed  the  subject  and  started  a  game,  but 
wiien  it  came  to  choosing  one  from  among  them  to 
be  in  the  center,  again  went  up  the  horrid  cry, 
"I-mee-mi-mine."  She  had  to  put  her  hands  over 
her  ears,  the  din  was  so  dreadful.  To  every  ques- 
tion and  every  word  they  had  but  this  one  response. 
Then  she  observed  how  the  horns  and  feelers  were 
growing  and  growing,  until  there  was  no  room  for 
anything  else;  how  they  had  scrambled  np  her 
satins  that  she  had  taken  from  the  chests  to  show 
them;  how  they  had  shot  away  her  arrows,  and 
broken  her  toys,  so  she  excused  herself  and  gave 
them  to  understand  that  she  wanted  to  be  alone 
and  that  they  could  now  go  back  where  they  had 
come  from. 

But  they  only  laughed  at  her,  as  if  it  were  a  new 
kind  of  a  game  they  were  playing,  and  hid  in  all 
the  nooks  and  corners  and  refused  to  go  out  until 
she  was  compelled  to  use  her  wand  with  authority 
and  say  a  charm  over  them,  thus: 

Abrah  ka-dab-rab,   Je   Madjo,  Kum   won, 
Ti  tinkity.  linkity,  minkity  mun. 


By  this  do  1  conjure,  by  this  do  I  say, 

Come,  oh  Je  Madjo,  my  will   obey, 

These  I-mee-mi-mines,   now   take   them  away. 

When,  with  a  mocking  peal  of  laughter,  the  last  one 
had  tied,  Consideree  fell  upon  her  satin  couch  and 
breathed  a  sigh  of  relief.  You  would  have  thought, 
she  had  had  enough  of  them,  and  been  glad  to  lock 
her  door  against  them  forevermore,  but  she*  found 
they  were  honest  little  creatures,  for  nothing  had 
been  taken,  not  even  an  apple  on  a  shelf  which  she 
had  placed  there  as  a  test,  right  within  reach.  And 
she  remembered  how  the  tadpole  became  a  pollywog 
and  the  pollywog  a  frog,  in  the  course  of  time,  and 
she  decided  t.o  give  the  "I-mee-mi-mines"  another 
trial,  and  hid  her  satins,  putting  out  linen  instead. 
She  had  begun  in  the  drawing- ruom,  but  now  she 
had  graduated  them  into  the  kitchen.  Here  she 
taught  them  to  march,  to  dance,  and  to  sing — to 
the  clapping  of  their  hands— and  when  they  got  too 
uproarious  with  their  yells  of  "I-mee-mi-mine"  she 
opened  the  door  and  sent  them  out  to  have  a  race 
in  the  moonlight,  so  as  to  work  off  their  superfluous 
energies  and  melodious  voices.  The  comical  antics 
of  the  little  innocent  glegeens  gave  her  much  enter- 
tainment, but  among  the  older  pigmies  were  some 
who  were  full  of  malice. 

You  could  never  count  on  them — one  day  they 
were  friendly,  the  next  spiteful,  for  no  reason  what- 
ever. In  the  midst  of  a  fine  time,  wearing  costumes 
and  crowns  as  kings,  queens  and  princesses,  some  of 
the  larger  pigmies  showed  they  had  cloven  hoofs, 
and  spaTks  of  fire  came  from  their  mouths.  Quickly, 
at  these  times,  Consideree  gathered  the  little  ones 
close  around  her,  like  chickens,  and  took  them  out 
of  harm's  way.  She  would  be  nearly  heart-broken, 
but  in  the  midst  of  the  disappointment  something 
would  happen  to  surprise  her,  as.  for  instance,  this: 
The  big  ones  would  gather  two  sleighs  full  of  pro- 
visions and  wood,  for  a  poor  widow,  and  singing 
the  songs  she  had  taught  them,  draw  their  loads 
through  the  forest  so  merrily,  all  together,  little  and 
big,  that  the  word  "I-mee-mi-mine"  would  not  be 
mentioned  at  all.  Now,  while  Consideree  was  trying 
to  understand  these  queer  little  creatures,  the  most 
wonderful  .thing  happened:  A  fairy  in  an  adjoining 
kingdom  had  heard  of  the  "I-mee  mi-mines"  and 
she  sent  an  invitation  to  Consideree  to  fetch  a  half- 
dozen  of  them  to  take  tea  with  her  in  her  palace. 

It  was  a  serious  matter  for  Consideree.  She  could 
not  venture  to  take  any  of  those  cloven-hoofs  or 
fire-breathers  along,  for  it  would  be  an  insult.  So 
she  sat  down  and  studied  the  situation  over  care- 
fully, and  finally  chose  five  of  the  tiniest  and  mild- 
est of  all — those  who  had  learned  to  obey  when 
spoken  to  and  who  had  feelers  and  no  horns  at  all — 
and  also  one  of  the  larger  ones  who  had  always 
acted  as  a  kind  of  monitor  over  the  little  ones,  try- 
ing to  keep  them  safe  from  harm.  With  this  moni- 
tor pigmy  carrying  the  pack  containing  the  cos- 
tumes, and  all  the  others  attired  in  their  best,  they 
set  forth  through  the  forest  for  the  palace  of  the 
powerful  fairy.  The  little  glegeens  were  all  sweet 
and  clean  in  their  prettiest  bibs  and  tuckers,  and 
their  little  thistle-down  locks  were  waving  in  the 
wind.  When  they  arrived  at  the  palace  they  found 
a  warm  welcome  awaiting  them  and  all  entered  and 
beheld  the  beauty  of  that  place.  Everywhere  were 
golden  chairs,  so  beautiful  and  graceful  it  seemed 
only  fitting  for  a  fairy's  palace.  But  how  about  the 
"I-mee-mi-mines?"  Should  they  dare  to  sit  down 
on  those  golden  chairs?  A  strong  sense  of  modesty 
came  over  them,  and  they  gathered  closely  together 
on  a  sofa,  like  little  birds  on  a  bough,  but  never  so 
much  as  peeped.  When  Consideree  spoke  to  them, 
they  arose  and  recited  the  verses  they  had  learned, 
among  which  was  this  one: 

Little   deeds   of   kindness, 

Little  words  of  love, 
Make  this  earth  an  Eden, 

Like  the  Heaven  above. 

And  each  did  it  so  sweetly,  just  like  an  innocent 
bird  singing  its  bright  notes  because  it  cannot  help 
it,  that  the  fairy  who  had  had  many  sorrows  was 
touched  to  the  heart,  and  yet  she  smiled  with  pleas- 
ure. Dancing  and  marching  to  hand-clapping  was  fol- 
lowed with  weaving  of  the  basket  of  Friendship, 
and  then  all  were  invited  to  see  a  beautiful  picture 
of  a  bay  and  a  mountain  which  resembled  the  Sleep- 
ing Princess  in  the  outline  of  the  mountain  against 
the  sky,  and  after  that  all  marched  to  a  delightful 
luncheon  fit  for  the  princess  herself. 

Did  those  pigmies  fall  from  their  chairs,  drag- 
ging the  laeeyfied  tablecloth  and  dishes  after  them 
to  the  consternation  of  everybody,  or  did  they 
make  any  other  mistakes  in  their  deportment,  or 
did  they  yell  "I-mee-mi-mine"  once?  Not  at  all! 
And  the   monitor  acted  its  part  to  perfection   and

was  particularly   ad *ed  bj   the  fair)  of  the  palace 

for  tue  way  il  Looked  after  the  little  glegeens.  Then 
came  more  dancing  up  in  the  hall  of  the  golden 
chairs,  and  at  lasl  games  followed  and  all  sal  on 
those  golden  chairs  and  played.  Would  you  believe 
it,  ■  •  kitchen   tin, iii ure! 

■  ■  t ; u i   tiir  sun   in  the  wesl   is  sinking  low 

And  now  to  our  own  little  home  we  musl  go,11 
spoke  Consideree,  and  so  this  lovely   time   came  to 
an  end. 

\>  fchey  came  back  into  their  nun  forest,  the 
older  pigmies  were  there  watching  for  the  return 
of  the  little  pigmies,  for  they  had  started  a  report 
thai  maybe  they  would  never  be  seen  again  but  bo 
carried  off  by  the  fairies  to  an  unknown  laml.  But 
there  they  were,  all  in  a  dear  little  bunch,  still 
sticking  together,  and  full  of  excitement  and  de- 
lighl  as  they  told  of  the  wonderful  day  when  they 
had  played  kitchen  furniture  on  golden  chairs. 
Soon  after  that,  another  powerful  fairy,  hearing  of 
tli  is  remark  a  lil e  occasion,  invited  them  to  her  pal- 
ace to  see  marvelous  baskets,  and  1  his  time  some 
of  the  older  ones  went  along  and  all  sat  down  to 
a  delightful  repast  and  behaved  with  good  man 
ners,  and  afterwards  asked  the  fairy  and  the  friends 
who  wen-  with  her  to  dance  with  them,  and  they 
were  so  delighted  at  having  a  little  fun  and  pleas- 
ure the m solves,  that  those  fairies  did  some  im- 
promptu dancing  all  by  themselves,  to  the  aston- 
ish in  cut  of  the  pigmies,  who  stood  and  looked  on 
with  great  gravity.  But  you  see  it  was  just  that 
kind  of  thing  that  they  had  been  needing  for  a 
lone  time,  and  when  pigmies  and  fairies  get  to- 
gether both  are  benefitted. 

Many  delightful  times  were  theirs  after  that,  for 
they  made  friends  wherever  they  went.  One  day 
they  were  dressed  to  represent  five  queens,  and  the 
monitor  in  white  crepe  and  embroidery  from  head 
to  foot  welcomed  them,  as  King  Solomon.  Well, 
sure  enough  the  glegeens  began  to  outgrow  the  tad- 
pole and  pollywog  stage,  and  they  shed  their  horns 
and  turned  into  something  like  human  beings.  They 
grew  to  depend  on  Consideree  for  many  things  and 
she  often  took  several  of  them  with  her  on  trips 
through  the  forest.  Always  there  were  some  with 
cloven  hoofs,  and  who  were  fire-breathers,  but  lit- 
tle by  little  they  improved,  and  once  in  a  while 
would  say  something  wonderful,  showing  they  were 
getting  souls  and  ceasing  to  be  just  piemy  creatures. 
But  word  came  from  the  unknown  land  bidding 
Consideree  to  enter  therein  for  a  good  long  rest  of 
one  hundred  years,  which  is  the  way  in  the  fairy 
world.  And  so  she  bade  these  little  friends  of  hers 
farewell,  and  spread  her  wings  for  the  journey 
through  the  stars  to  the  kingdom  beyond.  There 
she  sank  into  slumber  and  forgot  everything  and 
everybody.  But  after  many  years  she  awakened 
once  more  and  her  first  thought  was  of  the  "I-mee- 
mi-mines. ' ' 

' '  I  wonder  how  they  a  re  getting  along, ' '  she 
spoke  aloud.  Now,  the  first  wish  on  awakening  in 
Fairyland  is  always  granted.  Her  sleep  was  not 
over,  but  she  had  permission  for  a  little  while  in 
bel  ween  to  ease  her  heart.  So  she  was  granted  the 
privilege  of  flying  down  invisibly  to  see  for  her- 
self how  all  was  going  on  in  the  forest  where  once 
sin-  had  abided,  and  then  she  must  return  until  her 
hundred  years'  slumber  was  finished. 

"I  must  not  expect  anything,"  she  kept  saying 
in  herself;  "of  course  they  forgot  all  about  me  long 
ago.  and  probably  T  shall  not  even  recognize  the 
forest  where  once  T  lived  and  loved  them — those 
quaint,  dear,  little  ones  who  kept  me  from  being  so 
lonesome.''  So  at  last  she  came  to  the  part  of  the 
world  where  once  the  forest  had  stood.  It  was 
now  a  great  city,  where  tall  buildings  reached  sky- 
ward, with  narrow  little  dark  streets,  like  alleys, 
in  between.  "Oh,  the  poor  things,"  she  kept  say- 
ing, as  she  beheld  some  little  creatures  much  like 
those  glegeens  she  had  known,  crouched  close  to- 
gether, pale  and  miserable,  in  some  of  the  dark 
places.  But  on  she  went,  till  at  last  she  found  an 
open  space  where  was  a  green  field  and  some  trees. 
Could  it  be  possible?  Yes,  there  was  a  sort  of  half- 
ruined  tower  there,  and  all  around  were  little 
"  I-mee  mi-mines, "  like  those  she  had  known,  dig- 
ging in  the  ground  and  playing  and  running 
around,   and   no   one   interfered   with   them. 

"What  place  is  this?"  she  heard  some  one  in 
a  chariot  stopping  to  ask,  and  she  listened  for  the 
answer. 

' '  Oh,  this  is  where  the  Fairy  Consideree  once 
lived  and  made  the  young  ones  so  happy  that  when 
they  grew  up  they  bought  this  bit  of  land  and 
saved  it  for  their  children  and  their  children's 
children,"  replied  an  old  man  who  was  sitting 
there  with  a  book  in  his  hand.  "I  knew  her  my- 
self, and  I  can  tell  all  the  stories  she  told  us,  and 
that  is  why  I  am  here  telling  them  to  the  children 
so  they  shall  not  be  forgotten.  She  always  wanted 
us  to  be  good,  so  we  should  be  happy." 

Tt  was  the  old  monitor  of  the  "T-mee-mi  mines, " 
still  faithful  to  his  trust,  and  Consideree  gave  a 
sigh  of  relief  and  then  smiled  with  a  joy  that  made

pleading  or  procedure,  unless,  after  examination  of

the  place  shine,  although  it  was  a  cloudy  day. 
"What  a  bright  light!"  cried  the  little  pigmies, 
looking  up.  "It's  a  new  kind  of  a  sun  shining, 
like  in  the  fairy  stories."  Then  Consideree  spread 
her  azure  wings  and  went  upward  to  the  unknown 
world,  through  the  path  of  stars,  and  returned  to 
her  peaceful  slumber  once  more,  filled  with  joy  and 
sweet  repose. 

Although  this  is  only  a  fairy  story,  yet  I  have 
known  things  that  have  happened  just  as  wonder 
ful  in  real  life,  right  here  in  our  California.  I 
know  of  many  with  kind  hearts,  like  Mrs.  Stan- 
ford and  Mrs.  Hearst,  who  have  helped  to  make 
the  children  happy.  These  two  are  our  most  pow- 
erful fairies,  yet  they  have  friends  also  who  are 
at  work  in  smaller  ways.  T  could  give  the  names 
of  the  very  one  who  invited  children  to  play  kit- 
chen furniture  on  her  golden  chairs,  and  others 
who  opened  their  doors  and  gave  welcome  to  funny 
little  children  playing  outside  even  in  the  long  ago 
in  the  early  days.  For  I  myself  used  to  be  the 
funny  young  one  who  ran  away  from  home,  and 
always  someone  tried  to  make  me  happy.  Why 
should  not  the  tale  be  told  and  passed  along?  Are 
cookies  scarcer  than  they  used  to  be,  or  are  hearts 
colder?  This  is  just  what  we  need — to  bring  the 
children  and  the  grown-ups  together,  once  more,  to 
save  us  all  from  a  direful  doom.  For  we  each  need 
tl ther,  and  we  perish  when  we  are  parted.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


October,    1911 


m  California  Fifty  Yaair  §  Ag® 


(COMPILED  FOR  THE  GRIZZLY  BEAR  BY  THOMAS  R.  JONES.) 


HE  MOST  IMPORTANT  EVENT 
during  the  month  of  October,  1861, 
was  the  completion  of  the  Overland 
telegraph  line,  which  occurred  on 
the  23rd  at  6  p.m.  The  line  had 
been  under  construction  from  Port 
Churchill  eastward  and  Fort  Kear- 
ney westward,  also  from  Salt  Lake 
City  in  both  directions,  all  the  sum- 
mer, and  the  progress  was  closely 
watched  and  clearly  shown  in  the 
reduction  in  time  of  the  war  news 
in  the  dispatches  to  the  daily  papers,  brought  by 
the  pony  express  over  the  gap  between  the  east 
and  west  limits  of  the  extension.  It  was  not  much 
of  a  telegraph  line,  compared  with  the  copper  wires, 
perfectly  insulated  and  induction  proof,  of  the 
present  day,  but  the  completion  was  considered  the 
event  of  the  century  for  the  Pacific  Coast.  Con- 
gratulatory telegrams  were  immediately  dispatched 
from  the  Governors  of  California  and  Nevada  to 
the  President  of  the  United  States,  announcing  the 
event,  also  to  the  Governors  of  other  states,  while 
prominent  citizens  and  federal  and  state  officials 
transmitted  their  exuberant  feelings  to  fellow  offi- 
cials and  friends  in  the  East. 

Placerville  and  Mud  Springs,  on  the  route  of  the 
Overland  wire,  fired  anvil  salutes  and  had  jollifi- 
cations. It  was  the  intention  of  the  citizens  of  Sac- 
ramento and  San  Francisco  to  celebrate  the  event 
in  a  proper  manner,  but  almost  the  first  news  tele- 
graphed from  the  East  changed  the  feelings  of  the 
people  from  exuberant  enthusiasm  to  those  of  in- 
tense  gloom. 

Colonel  Baker  Killed. 
This  was  the  announcement  of  the  death  of 
Colonel  E.  D.  Baker,  who  was  killed  in  battle  in 
Virginia,  on  October  21st.  He  was  a  man  beloved 
by  thousands  of  California  friends.  Colonel  Baker 
was  born  in  London,  England,  in  1S11;  came  to 
America  when  in  his  'teens,  and  lived  in  New  York 
and  Pennsylvania,  where  he  acquired  an  education; 
then  went  to  Illinois  and  soon  became  identified 
with  public  affairs;  went  to  the  Mexican  War, 
where  he  earned  his  military  title,  and  then  came 
to  California,  where  he  lived  for  a  number  of  years; 
then  went  to  Oregon  where,  when  that  state  was 
admitted  to  the  Union,  he  was  elected  one  of  its 
first  United  States  Senators,  and  was  serving  his 
term  as  such  when  the  Civil  War  began.  He  was 
appointed  a  major-general  by  President  Lincoln, 
and  was  at  the  head  of  the  California  Regiment 
when  a  rebel  bullet  ended  his  brilliant  career. 
Colonel  Baker  was  considered  one  of  the  most  elo- 
quent orators  in  the  United  States,  and  had  earned 
a  national  reputation.  He  had  the  honor  of  intro- 
ducing President  Lincoln  to  the  people  at  his  in- 
augural on  March  4th.  In  California  his  talents 
were  often  in  demand  on  public  occasions,  and  when 
campaigning  through  the  State  it  -  is  said  people 
came  as  far  as  a  hundred  miles  to  listen.  He  was 
defeated  as  a  candidate  for  Congress  in  1S59  by  a- 
man  of  whom  it  was  said  that  he  could  disperse  an 
audience  through  lack  of  eloquence  quicker  than  any 
other  public  speaker  in  the  State.  But  notwith- 
standing Colonel  Baker's  political  opinions  at  the 
time  he  made  his  canvass  for  Congress  were  not  the 
most  popular,  he  was  unanimously  admired  and 
loved  for  his  great  talents  and  his  good  qualities 
as  a  man.  Therefore  his  unfortunate  taking  away 
was  mourned  in  every  city  and  camp  on  the  Pacific 
Coast.  Flags  were  placed  at  half-mast,  meetings 
were  held  deploring  his  death,  and  general  sadness 
prevailed.  Colonel  Baker  had  four  children,  two 
sons  and  two  daughters.  One  of  his  sons  was  with 
him  when  he  died.  His  wife  and  daughters  lived 
in  San  Francisco. 

Booth  Announces  Overland  Completion. 
His  son-in-law,  R.  J.  Stevens,  was  Superintendent 
of  the  United  States  Mint,  and  it  was  a  remark- 
able incident  of  the  event  that  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Stevens 
should  attend  the  theater,  occupying  a  box,  where 
Mr.  Booth,  the  leading  man,  came  before  the  cur- 
tain and.  from  the  stage,  announced  in  eloquent 
words  that  the  Overland  telegraph  line  had  just  been 
completed  and  that  the  lightning's  flash,  controlled 
by  the  hand  of  man.  had  annihilated  time  between 
the  Pacific  and  Atlantic.  The  audience  greeted  the 
announcement  with  cheers,  none  applauding  more 
vigorously  than  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Stevens  and  their 
party.  Hardly  had  the  performance  begun  than  the 
message  announcing  Colonel  Baker's  death  was  re- 
ceived, and  its  sorrowful  tidings  were  whispered 
to  the  members  of  his  family,  who  immediately  re- 
tired, while,  in  subdued  tones,  the  bad  news  was 
told  to  the  audience,  where  it  fell  upon  their  ardor 
like   a    chilling   blast    from   the    Arctic   regions. 


The  receipts  of  the  first  day's  business  of  the 
Overland  telegraph,  October  24th,  were  over  $1500. 
The  toll  to  New  York  was  $8  for  ten  words  which, 
compared  with  the  rate  of  $1  for  a  night  letter  of 
fifty  words  at  the  present  day,  shows  a  reduction 
in  price  of  over  $40  for  a  similar  message. 

Interest  in  Civil  War  at  High  Tide. 

The  advices  from  the  seat  of  war  now  being  up  to 
date  and  military  operations  going  on  in  all  of  the 
border  states,  the  telegraphic  news  was  of  absorb- 
ing interest.  Recruiting  was  still  going  on  in  all 
parts  of  the  State,  but  having  no  enemy  to  fight 
nearer  than  Texas  and  Missouri,  internal  dissen- 
sions among  the  volunteers  began  to  arise.  A  good 
deal  of  the  trouble  was  due  to  General  Sumner's 
arbitrary  action  in  consolidating  companies  after 
being  mustered  in  and  thus,  by  making  two  full 
companies  out  of  three  that  lacked  twenty  per  cent 
or  more  of  being  full,  he  took  away  the  commands 
of  a  number  of  captains  and  reduced  to  the  rank 
of  high  privates  a  number  of  petty  officers  who 
were   ambitious   to   wear   official    uniforms. 

Another  cause  of  dissatisfaction  existing  was  an 
order  from  the  War  Department  for  General  Sum- 
ner and  the  regular  troops  on  the  Pacific  Coast  to 
move  to  the  Atlantic  Coast  and  to  garrison  the 
Pacific  Coast  forts  and  posts  with  the  California 
volunteers.  Many  of  these  desired  to  smell  gun- 
powder and  engage  in  active  hostilities,  and  could 
see  no  glory  in  garrison  duty.  General  Sumner, 
with  his  staff  and  500  regulars,  sailed  from  San 
Francisco  on  the  steamer  Orizaba  on  October  21st 
and  were  given  an  enthusiastic  send-off  by  the  peo- 
ple of  San  Francisco.  Salutes  were  fired  and,  as 
the  steamer  moved  down  the  bay,  it  passed  a  British 
man-of-war  whose  crew  manned  the  yards  and 
cheered  to  the  echo  the  United  States  troops.  The 
artillery  band  on  the  Orizaba  responded  by  playing 
"God  Save  the  Queen."  Just  as  the  steamer  was 
leaving  the  wharf,  this  band  struck  up  * '  Dixie, ' ' 
and  an  excited  lieutenant  rushed  up  to  General 
Sumner,  asking  if  he  should  stop  it.  General  Sum- 
ner quickly  replied,  "Damn  it,  no!  Let  them  play 
it;  that's  where  we're  going,  to  capture  it." 

Cannon    to    Annihilate    the    Enemy. 

There  developed  much  rivalry  between  El  Dorado 
and  Placer  Counties  as  to  which  would  send  out  the 
largest  number  of  volunteers.  El  Dorado  was  then 
called  the  Empire  County,  as  it  had  the  largest 
mining  county  population.  Both  counties  were  now 
near  the  500  mark,  but  the  fact  that  garrison  duty, 
instead  of  fighting,  would  be  required,  was  dampen- 
ing the  ardor  of  the  patriots.  Large  numbers  of 
miners,  business  men  and  employees  were  reported 
from  Siskiyou  to  Mariposa  as  selling  their  claims 
-  and  arranging  business  matters  so  as  to  enlist,  and 
it  was  expected  California 's  quota  would  be  mus- 
tered in  before  the  end  of  the  year. 

Camp  Union,  under  command  of  Colonel  Kellogg, 
was  established  near  Sacramento.  Camp  Sigel, 
under  Colonel  Judah,  was  established  at  Auburn. 
Camp  McDougall,  at  Stockton,  and  Camp  McClellan, 
at  Placerville,  were  in  temporary  existence  during 
the  month.  A  regiment  of  volunteers  under  com- 
mand of  Colonel  Judah  was  ordered  from  Camp 
Sigel  to  San  Francisco  on  October  29th,  thence  to 
sail   for  Fort    .  ancouver,  Oregon. 

E.  O.  C.  Ord  was  appointed  Brigadier-General  of 
California  Volunteers  during  the  month. 

The  first  fatality  to  occur  was  with  Captain  Kel- 
ley,  of  an  El  Dorado  County  company,  who  was 
thrown  from  a  horse  in  San  Francisco  and  died  from 
his  injuries  October  2nd.  He  was  buried  in  Lone 
Mountain  Cemetery,  with  military  honors. 

The  friends  of  John  Conuess  were  circulating  a 
petition  to  be  signed,  asking  the  President  to  ap- 
point him  a  brigadier-general. 

Among  the  companies  organized  during  the  month 
are  mentioned:  San  Francisco  Light  Guard,  Captain 
R.  Smith ;  Santa  Cruz  Cavalry,  Captain  Albert 
Brown;  Oakland  Guard,  Captain  J.  Browne;  Vallejo 
Rifles,  Captain  J.  B.  Frisbie;  Trinity  County  Vol- 
unteers, Captain  Crowninshield;  California  Guard, 
Captain  I.  Bluxton.  Jr.;  Volcano  Blues,  Captain 
Scott;  Plumas  County  Volunteers,  Captain  Whit- 
lock;  McClellan  Guards,  Calaveras  County,  Captain 
Black;  Black  Hussars,  San  Francisco,  Captain  Sey- 
mour. 

Seizures  of  consignments  arriving  hy  vessel  from 
the  East,  owned  by  Secession  shippers,  were  being 
frequently  made  in  San  Francisco  by  federal  offici- 
als. 

A  foundry  for  casting  cannon  at  Mare  Island  was 
constructed  and  a  citizen  of  San  Francisco  named 
John  D'Arcy  invented  and  was  exhibiting  the  model 
of  a  double-barreled  cannon  that  would  destroy  a 
whole  battalion  of  soldiers  at  a  single  discharge.     It 


was  arranged  so  that  the  barrels,  separating  near 
the  breech,  branched  out  in  such  a  manner  that  a 
ball  from  each  barrel,  chained  together,  would  carry 
the  chain  taut  and  annihilate  everything  the  chain 
came  in  contact  with.  The  model  was  sent  to  the 
War  Department  at  Washington. 

California  Central  Begins  Service. 
The  Nevada  Territorial  Legislature  met  on  Octo- 
ber 1st  and  began  its  labors  of  making  a  code  of 
laws  for  the  government  of  the  territory.  The  prin- 
cipal event  during  the  month  was  the  visit  paid  it 
by  Governor-elect  Leland  Stanford,  Charles  Crocker, 
C.  P.  Huntington,  Mark  Hopkins,  T.  D.  Judah  and 
other  representative  Californians  on  October  23rd, 
to  advocate  the  passage  of  a  bill  granting  the  right 
to  construct  a  railroad  across  the  territory  of  Ne- 
vada. They  were  received  with  welcoming  atten- 
tion, and  the  Central  Pacific  Railroad  got  the  recog- 
nition it  was  desired  it  should  have. 

The  California  Central  Railroad  commenced  run- 
ning trains  from  Folsom  to  Lincoln  on  October  13th. 
The  builders  of  this  road  had  met  with  many  un- 
expected difficulties  during  the  year,  which  had  de- 
layed construction,  but  Col.  C.  L.  Wilson,  its  pro- 
moter, was  full  of  enthusiasm  and  energy  as  re- 
garded its  future  progress  northward. 

Contra  Costa  County  held  a  County  Fair  during 
the  month.  Apple  trees  in  this  county,  from  some 
undetermined  cause,  were  reported  blossoming  twice 
and  growing  a  second  crop.  The  "Q"  ranch  in 
lone  Valley.  Amador  County,  went  this  one  better 
and  claimed  to  have  an  apple  tree  then  bearing  its 
third  crop,  and  the  apples  were  of  eatable  size. 

A  canal  to  be  built  to  connect  Tulare  Lake  with 
Kings  River  Slough,  and  thus  reach  the  San  Joaquin 
River,  was  being  surveyed.  Many  people  claimed 
that  the  surface  of  the  lake  was  lower  than  the 
slough,  and  that  the  water  would  run  into  the  lake, 
but  it  was  shown  by  the  survey  that  the  lake  was 
fifty-five  feet  higher  than  the  river. 

Skyscrapers  for  the  Metropolis. 

San  Francisco  people  were  taking  much  pride  in 
the  construction  of  the  Occidental  Hotel  and  the 
Russ  House,  which  began  at  this  time.  The  Occi- 
dental, on  the  corner  of  Bush  and  Montgomery 
streets,  was  being  erected  by  James  and  Joseph 
Donohoe,  bankers,  and  was  called  an  imposing  struc- 
ture and  its  cost  was  estimated  at  $100,000.  The 
west  wall  fell  on  October  25th  and  injured  several 
workmen.  The  Russ  House  occupied  the  block  on 
Montgomery  street,  between  Bush  and  Pine.  It  was 
being  built  by  C.  Russ  and  was  described  as  an  im- 
mense structure  with  275  feet  frontage  on  Montgom- 
ery street  and  80  feet  on  each  Bush  and  Pine 
streets.  It  was  to  be  three  stories  in  height  and 
would  contain  fourteen  stores  on  Montgomery  street 
and  227  rooms  in  its  second  and  third  stories.  It 
was  to  cost  $180,000.  Both  of  these  hotels  were 
popular  stopping  places  for  the  transients  for  many 
years  and  both  passed  out  of  existence  in  the  great 
fire  of  April,  1906. 

There  were  some  big  trees  in  the  Sierras.  A  sugar 
pine  log  at  La  Porte,  Sierra  County,  was  made  into 
shingles  by  two  men  to  the  value  of  $385. 

A  vineyardist  named  Pardee,  in  lone  Valley, 
culled  nineteen  tons  of  grapes  from  two  acres  of 
vines. 

A  whale  was  harpooned  off  Rincon  Point,  in  San 
Francisco  Bay,  October  5th,  after  having  exhibited 
his  water  spouting  abilities  to  the  inhabitants  on 
the  water  front   for  several   hours, 

A  man  named  Dodson,  at  New  San  Pedro,  was  pre- 
paring to   make   all   the  soap  needed   in    California. 
He  had  bought  tons  of  tallow,  erected  immense  vats 
to  be  filled  with  lye,  and  was  looking  for  trade. 
Failures,  Fires  and  Fatalities. 

There  were  a  number  of  heavy  mercantile  failures 
during  the  month,  all  due  to  the  small  retailers  be- 
ing unable  to  pay  their  accounts  to  the  wholesalers. 
Among  those  in  financial  trouble  were  Burton  &  Mc- 
Carthy, wholesale  merchants  of  Saeramento,  who 
failed  for  $80,000,  and  J.  O.  Pall  &  Co.  and  Tennant 
&  Covington,  the  biggest  wholesalers  of  Marysville. 
who  failed  with  assets,  if  collectable,  equal  to  their 
liabilities. 

Deadwood,  Siskiyou  County,  was  burned  on  Octo- 
ber oth,  nearly  the  entire  business  section  being 
destroyed.  Gebhardt  's  brewery,  in  Mokelumne 
Hill,  and  one  of  the  largest  breweries  at  that  time 
in  the  interior,  was  burned  October  18th;  loss, 
$20,000. 

The  San  Francisco  woolen  mills  burned  October 
24th,  with  a  loss  of  $100,000. 

Mrs.  Lorenzo  Leek,  a  well  known  German  woman 
of  Los  Angeles,  was  murdered  by  a  Mexican  named 
Francisco  Cota  on  October  17th.     A  few  hours  after

of  California  where  the  Native  Sons 
and  Native  I  laughters  of  t  be  '  lolden 
West  did  not  assemble  on  September 

9th  :ni«l  fittingly  omemorate  their 

State's  sixty  first  birthday  annivei 
aary.  Where  a  number  of  Parlors 
w  ere  contiguous,  joinl  celebral  ions 
were  held,  and  all  were  well  at- 
tended. Many  Parlors  of  both  I  »r 
ders,  of  course,  wenl  to  Santa  Rosa 
and  took  pari  in  the  general  cele- 
bration there,  and  others  would  have  Liked  to  have 
gone,  bul  distance  and  necessary  expense  made  the 
t  rip    impossible. 

In  Los  A.ngeles  County,  the  Parlors  prevailed 
upon  the  Federation  of  states  Societies  to  hold  its 
annual  picnic  on  Admission  Day,  and  Sycamore 
Grove,  Los  Angeles,  was  thronged  with  people  from 
r\  erj  state  in  the  Dnion,  The  Native  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  decorated  the  speakers'  stand 
with  American  and  Bear  Flags,  and  provided,  in 
the  person  of  Frank  G-.  Tyrrell,  the  silver-tongued 
orator  of  Sierra  Madre  Parlor,  a  California-born 
speaker  to  tell  the  new-comers  about  the  state  of 
their  adoption.  I n  the  course  of  his  remarks. 
which  were  received  wil  li  frequenl  applause,  Mr. 
Tyrrell   said : 

"Your  observance  of  Admission  Day,  we  recog- 
nize   as    a     graCiOUS     tribute     tO      OUV      native      State. 

Your  loyalty  stimulates  ours;  your  love  for  the 
stale  of  your  adoption  deepens  our  devotion  to  the 
state  of  our  nativity.  However  separated  in  po- 
sition or  pursuit,  however  divided  by  creed  or 
party,  this  .lay  unites  all  who  are  fortunate  enough 
to  be  residents  of  the  Golden  State — ( 'alifornia. 
"In   the  ordinary   business  of  life,   in   the  battle 

of  the  bread-winners,  Strength  rules;  here  and  now. 
we   pay   court    to    love   and   loyally.      We    welcome  you 

beeause  you  are  cherishing  the  memories  of  the  old 

home.  Vmi  are  thinking  of  the  old  roof  tree,  of 
the  village  or  the  city  church,  of  the  old  home 
stead,  the  shop,  the  store,  the  office,  the  school,  the 
College,  of  fond  and  familiar  forms  and  faces,  of 
ring  and  altar,  of  wedding  march  and  funeral  pro 
cession,  of  t he  tumultuous  activities  of  other  days 
and  other  men,  and  of  the  repose  of  (.rod's  acre. 
And  because  you  love  and  cherish  the  old.  we  know 
yon    will    cling    to    the    new. 

"We  welcome  you  because  of  like  memories 
which  your  celebration  of  Admission  Day  revives 
in  our  hearts — of  our  Pioneer  Fathers  and  Mothers, 
of  the  delights  of  a  childhood  and  of  school  days 
spent  in  sunny  i  'alifornia.  Of  the  <  'alifornia  Ar- 
gonauts, it  has  been  said.  '  The  cowards  never 
started,  and  the  weak  died  on  the  way.'  Some  of 
you  older  people  knew  our  fathers  and  mothers  in 
the  middle  west  or  the  east.  Were  they  not  choice 
spirits— the  finest  of  the  wheat.'     Because  you  join 

us  in  keeping  their  memory  green,  and  in  recogniz 
ing    their    sterling    worth,    we    welcome    you. 

''But  you  are  welcome  for  the  same  reason  that 
they  were.  They  came  into  a  land  rich  in  nude 
veloped  resources,  roomy  and  alluring  to  the  home 
seeker;  so  do  you.  even  though  your  arrival  was 
bul  yesterday.  California  is  yet  in  her  swaddling 
cl.it lies,    commercially,    industrially,    politically. 

The    elements    of    em  jure    here    are    plastic     yet     and 

warm: 
That     chaos    of    a     might  v     world     is     rounding     into 

for  in. 

' '  The  man  with  or  without  capital,  and  the  man 
who  has  a  million  to  invest,  and  the  man  who  has 
only  a  brain  and  a  hand,  is  still  welcome  to  OUl 
native  State.  Here  in  our  bustling  towns  and  cities. 
here  in  our  gardens  and  orchards,  in  our  mines  and 
mills,  is  room  for  twenty  millions  of  souls,  instead 
of  two  and  a  half  millions.  No  other  section  of  the 
country  offers  such  golden  promises.  Statistics 
show  !  hat  the  workingman  of  California  produces 
one  and  two-thirds  as  much  as  his  brother  back  east. 

''But  as  fair  and  goodly  as  the  State  is  in  her 
material  resources,  we  do  nut  forget  that  it  takes 
men  to  build  an  American  commonwealth.  Even 
now-  you  are  helping  us  to  modernize  the  const  i 
tut  ion  which  our  fathers  adopted  in  1850;  to  in- 
sure the  sovereignty  of  the  people,  and  wrest  the 
sceptre  from  predatory  wealth;  to  abolish  the  tra 
d it  ions  of  the  dark  ages,  and  enfranchise  woman ; 
to  declare  that  what  is  morally  wrong  cannot  be 
legally  right;  to  wage  relentless  war  against  gamb- 
ling and  drunkenness  and  licentiousness,  and  all  cor- 
rupt uses  of  money  or  talent;  to  build  here  on  these 
western   shores  an   ideal   state."

THE 


OX.  JAMES  D.  PHELAN  OP  SAX 
Francisco,  who  has  always  shown 
great  interest  in  the  preservation  of 
I  lalifornia  's  landmarks  and  the 
creation  of  civic  beauty,  and  has 
freely  contributed  of  his  time  and 
money  to  These  ends,  is  taking  the 
initiative  in  a  movement  which,  if 
concurred  in  by  those  who  are  in 
svmpathy  with  landmarks  preserva- 
tion— an'<i  it  should  be — will  very 
likely  result  in  saving  the  old  mis- 
sions to  the  rising  and  future  generations  as  the 
property  of  all  The  People.  Mr.  Phelan,  under  date 
of  September  2nd,  sent  the  following  letter  to 
Lewis  F.  Byington  of  San  Francisco,  a  member  of 
ill.'  Landmarks  Committee  of  the  Native  Sons  of 
the  Golden  West,  and  its  contents  tell  of  a  plan 
whereby  the  missions  can  be  restored  and  saved  in 
a  manner  that  should  be  acceptable  to  both  the 
present  owner  of  the  mission  properties,  the  Cath- 
olic Church,  and  those  who  desire  that  the  mis- 
sions   should   be    saved: 

••Will  you  please  read  in  the  September  number 
tit'  The  Grizzly  Bear  a  communication  w-hich  I  sent 
to  the  editor.'  I  suggest  that  your  committee  take 
the  initiative  in  calling  together  all  the  men  (say 
in  San  Francisco  at  a  fixed  date.)  who  are  inter- 
ested in  the  restoration  of  the  old  missions. 
Nothing  can  be  done  w-ithout  the  co-operation  of 
the  Catholic  Church,  which  owns  the  missions.  The 
Bishops  of  the  Catholic  Church  are  anxious  to  co- 
operate. 

"It  occurred  to  me  that  they  might  even  consent, 
if  asked,  to  donate  the  abandoned  missions,  such 
:is  San  Antonio  de  Padua,  to  the  State,  and  then.  I 
suggest,  we  might  introduce  a  bill  in  the  Legisla- 
ture creating  an  honorary  commission,  without  pay, 
to  undertake  the  restoration  of  these  interesting 
relics,  the  commission  to  be  authorized  to  receive 
donations  and  perhaps  the  State  might  make  a 
small  appropriation  for  a  custodian,  because  after 
they  are  restored,  somebody  in  the  neighborhood, 
with  a  small  salary,  can  take  charge  of  the  prop- 
erty, and  report  from  time  to  time  on  its  condition. 
The  new  State  Highway  will  probably  touch  all 
these  points,  as  Camino  Real  was  the  road  that  led 
from   one  mission   to   another. 

"This  work  will  be  of  enormous  value  to  Califor- 
nia, as  a  scenic  and  tourist  State.     Europe  is  made 


rich  by  tourists  who  are  attracted  by  relics  of  the 
past,  and  California  should  seduously  cultivate  what 
little  she  already  has  in  the  way  of  antiquity.  This 
is  not  only  a  sentimental  question,  but  a  business 
question. 

' '  The  missions  that  are  in  actual  use  will,  no  doubt. 
h<  eared  for  by  the  church,  although  1  saw  at  San 
Luis  Rey  last  Spring,  what  was.  I  believe,  a  mortu- 
ary chapel  in  the  old  graveyard  adjoining  the 
church,  crumbling  to  decay.  A  few  hundred  dol- 
lars expended  now  would  probably  save  it.  The 
church  does  not  use  this,  but  it  does  maintain,  in 
excellent  condition,  the  main  body  of  the  church. 
A  case  like  this  would  merit  the  attention  of  such 
a  commission,  and  its  suggestions  and  recommenda- 
tion might  induce  the  church  to  care  for  that  neg- 
lected shrine. 

"Will  you  call  such  a  meeting  and  consider  the 
matter  of  a  legislative  bill  on  the  lines  suggested.'-' 

Congressman  Joseph  R.  Knowland  of  Alameda, 
chairman  of  the  Landmarks  Committee  of  the  N.S. 
G.W.,  has  just  recently  returned  from  his  duties  at 
Washington,  and  is  planning  to  personally  visit  the 
missions  that  are  said  to  be  in  need  of  immediate 
repair,  and  it  is  hoped  that  he  will  accept  the  pro- 
posal of  Mr.  Phelan.  and  that  through  his  commit- 
tee the  Native  Sons  will  launch  a  movement  look- 
ing to  the  preservation  of  the  unused  missions  and 
their  acquirement  by  the  State. 

Several  of  those  in  authority  in  the  Catholic 
Church,  including  Archbishop  Riordan  of  San  Fran- 
cisco, with  whom  Mr.  Phelan  has  discussed  his 
project,  are  in  hearty  sympathy  with  the  same,  and 
have  expressed  a  willingness  to  have  the  State 
acquire  title  to  those  mission  properties  not  in  use 
by  the  church  for  religious  work.  While  Bishop 
Gonaty  of  Los  Angeles,  in  whose  diocese  these  mis 
sions  are,  is  absent  from  the  State  and  therefore 
could  not  be  approached  on  the  subject,  those  win. 
know  his  sentiments  toward  the  missions  express 
no  doubt  but  that  Mr.  Phelan  "s  plans  will  receive 
his  hearty  sanction  and  that  lie  will  give  his  assist 
ance   in   successfully   carrying   out   the   project. 

There  seems  to  be  no  reasonable  doubt  but  that 
the  Catholic  Church  will  deed  to  the  State,  for 
State  use  only,  those  mission  properties  not  needed 
in  the  religious  work  of  the  church,  and  which  the 
church,  therefore,  cannot  reasonably  be  expected  to 
maintain  simply  through  sentiment.  That  the 
church  will  contiue  in  future,  as  in  the  past,  to 
keep  in  good   repair   those   properties  for  which   it 


has  use  in  its  religious  work,  is  assured  as  a  matter 
of  sentiment  and  common  sense.  When  the  church 
shall  have  made  this  gift  to  the  State,  The  People 
will  unquestionably  not  only  restore  the  present  de- 
caying mission  buildings,  but  also  erect  on  the 
grounds  where  other  mission  buildings  once  stood 
as  nearly  as  possible  exact  duplicates  of  landmarks 
now  lost.  Working  hand  in  hand,  the  State  and 
church  can  preserve  for  all  time  the  complete  chain 
of  missions  that  once  extended  from  San  Diego  to  * 
Sonoma. 

There  is  no  reason  why  the  State  cannot  accept 
these  missions  and  provide  for  their  restoration 
•and  rebuilding,  and  we  believe  The  People  would 
sanction  the  necessary  monetary  outlay.  Why  not, 
in  building  the  proposed  State  Highway  that,  from 
Sonoma  to  San  Diego,  should  by  all  means  follow 
old  El  Camino  Real,  spend  a  few  thousand  dollars 
of  The  People's  money  in  restoring  and  rebuilding 
those  missions  along  El  (amino  Real  which,  if  Mr. 
Phelan 's  project  is  accepted  by  the  Catholic  Church, 
will  be  the  property  of  The  People,  irrespective  of 
religious    tendencies  ? 

Why  should  not  the  Orders  of  Xative  Sons  and 
Native  Daughters  of  the  Golden  West,  at  all  times 
foremost  in  movements  tending  to  the  best  inter- 
ests of  California,  aid  the  State  financially  in  this 
proposed  wTork,  even  to  the  extent  of  levying  a  spe 
cial  per  capita  tax  to  insure  a  goodly  contribution? 

We  even  venture  the  opinion  that,  were  these 
mission  properties  deeded  to  the  State,  a  commis- 
sion could,  by  calling  for  voluntary  restoration 
contributions,  secure  every  dollar  necessary  to  in- 
sure the  preservation  of  this  wonderful  system  of 
landmarks.  As  Mr.  Phelan  says,  the  commercial 
value  to  the  State  of  preserving  this  chain  of  mis- 
sions is  beyond  computation,  as  when  it  becomes 
known  that  the  State  has  preserved  El  Camino  Real 
and  every  mission  building  that  graced  the  route, 
tourists  from  Europe  and  all  parts  of  our  own 
country  will  flock  here  to  witness  the  spectacle, 
and  California  will  add  another  to  its  already 
large  list   of   wonders. 

The  plan  outlined  by  Mr.  Phelan  is  in  line  with 
the  suggestions  recently  offered  in  the  editorial  col- 
umns of  The  Grizzly  Bear  and,  when  due  considera- 
tion is  given  the  matter,  will  no  doubt  be  in  accord 
with  the  views  of  ;i  large  percentage  of  Califor- 
nia's population.  We  therefore  trust  that  Mr. 
Phelan  will  be  successful  in  his  efforts,  believing 
that,  with  the  consent  of  the  Catholic  Church  to 
perform  its  part  of  the  proposition,  the  missions 
can  be  speedily  restored  ami  rebuilt  and  the  whole 
State  benefited  thereby. 


GET  DOWN  TO  REAL  DUTY. 

The  Santa  Barbara  method  of  observing  Admis- 
sion Day.  this  year — by  educating  the  school  child- 
ren as  to  what  the  day  is,  and  why  it  is  designated 
and  observed  as  a  legal  holiday — is  one  that  appeals 
to  us.  It  is  a  shame  that  so  many  of  our  school 
children,  when  graduated,  have  so  little  knowledge 
of  their  State's  history.  And  a  little  education  of 
the  same  sort  for  many  of  our  teachers  would  not 
go  amiss,  either,  for  recently  one  in  Long  Beach, 
being  asked  why  Admission  Day  was  observed  as  a 
legal  holiday,  could   not  answer. 

The  Xative  Sons  and  Native  Daughters  should 
look  after  this,  and  see  that  every  California  school 
attendant  is  well  versed  in  the  State's  history.  They 
can  well  afford  to  spend  their  funds  in  promoting 
i  In-  plan  inaugurated  by  Reina  Del  Mar  Parlor  of 
Native  Daughters  at  Santa  Barbara,  for  it  is  bound 
tu  result  in  nothing  but  good  to  their  native  State. 
They  should  also,  along  this  same  line,  see  to  it 
that  every  public  school  library  is  well  supplied 
with  books  dealing  with  California's  history.  And 
in  this  latter  connection.  Las  Positas  Parlor  of  Na- 
tive Sons  at  Livermore  is  to  be  congratulated  upon 
having  had  set  aside  a  room  in  the  public  library 
for  California  literature  and  will  supply  it  with 
books  pertaining  to  the  history  of  the  State. 

The  idea  to  lie  earried  out  in  Santa  Barbara  here- 
;i  ft  it.  of  offering  prizes  to  the  school  children  for 
compositions,  etc.,  dealing  with  California  historical 
topics,  is  along  the  right  line,  as  it  will  necessitate 
I  In-  pupils  familiarizing  themselves  with  the  sub- 
ject matter  and  will  instruct  them  along  the  line  de- 
sired. 

It   is  thcst.-  things  that   our  Orders  should  take  up 


and  push  forward,  instead  of  devotiug  so  much 
time,  energy  and  money  to  petty  affairs  that  have 
but  the  one  quality,  of  promoting  temporary  enjoy- 
ment. We  should  lay  aside  our  boyish  and  girlish 
pursuits  now.  as  wTe  are  gettiug  well  along  in  years 
as  organizations,  and  be  concerned  with  those  things 
which  make  for  good  citizenship  and  the  prosperity 
and  future  progress  of  our  State. 
*     #    •*     * 

HELP  SELECT  EL  CAMINO  REAL  ROUTE. 

When  the  route  for  the  proposed  State  Highway 
is  finally  adopted,  it  is  to  be  hoped  that  from  So- 
noma to  San_  Diego  the  route  will  follow  the  course 
of  old  El  Camino  Real.  This  route  has  already  been 
approved  by  several  commercial  organizations,  and 
the  Native  Sons  and  Xative  Daughters,  by  their 
support,  can  materially  aid  in  its  final  selection. 
This  would  make  the  greatest,  scenic  road  in  the 
State,  and  by  its  selection  as  a  part  of  the  State 
Highway  it  would  be  forever'  preserved.  And  be- 
ing one  of  the  State's  greatest  and  most  attractive 
landmarks,  its  preservation  for  all  time  is  much  de- 
sired by  all  those  interested  in  the  preservation  of 
the    State's    landmarks. 

Let  us  help  this  cause.  We  can  easily  do  it,  and 
without  any  cost  to  our  Orders.  Let  every  Parlor 
-if  Xative  Sons  and  Xative  Daughters  in  the  State 
adopt  and  forward  to  the  State  Highway  Commis- 
sion at  Sacramento  a  resolution  favoring  El  Camino 
Real  as  the  route  for  the  State  Highway  from  So- 
noma to  San  Diego.  Then  let  those  Parlors  appoint 
committees  to  wait  upon  the  promotion,  commercial 
and  automobile  associations  in  their  localities  to 
pas>  similar  resolutions  and  see  that  they  are  for- 
warded to  the  proper  parties. 


We  should  take  this  matter  up  at  once,  and  if 
we  give  it  the  attention  it  rightly  deserves,  El 
Camino  Real  will  be  as  popular  in  the  days  to  come 
as   it    was  in   the   days   long  gone   by. 

A  MONUMENT  TO   THE  PIONEER. 

A  proposition  is  on  foot  to  erect  in  San  Fran- 
cisco, in  commemoration  of  the  Panama-Pacific  Ex- 
position there,  a  handsome  and  lasting  monument, 
and  we  understand  the  cost  of  same  is  to  be  appro- 
priated out  of  the  funds  voted  by  the  people  of  the 
State  in  Panama-Pacific  bonds.  The  idea  is  a  good 
one,  and  such  a  memorial  will  no  doubt  be  approved 
by  every  citizen. 

We  would  suggest  that  the  subject  of  such  a  mon- 
ument should  be  the  California  Pioneer.  The  peo- 
ple of  California  owe  more  to  the  Pioneer  than  to 
any  other  individual,  or  class  of  people,  that  ever 
trod  the  golden  sands  of  this  wonderful  State.  And 
San  Francisco,  being  a  typical  California  city  and 
owing  its  greatness  to  the  Pioneer,  is  the  logical 
place  for  such  a  monument.  The  money  for  the 
memorial,  if  we  are  rightly  informed,  coming  from 
every  taxpayer  in  the  State,  should  be  spent  with 
an  idea  to  erect  a  monument  that  will  best  satisfy 
the  wishes  of  a  majority  of  the  contributors. 

If  left  to  popular  approval,  therefore,  we  have 
no  hesitancy  in  saying  that  the  people  throughout 
the  State  would  say  that  a  California  monument,  to 
be  erected  in  California's  greatest,  city,  by  Califor- 
nia money,  should  be  raised  to  the  immortal  mem- 
ory and  everlasting  glory  of  the  California  Pioneer. 

And  let  it  be  as  broad  as  that-Pioneer 's  generos- 
ity, as  high  as  that  Pioneer's  ideals,  and  as  endur- 
ing as  that  Pioneer's  fortitude.

COMMENDABLE    WORK    TO 

DISCOURAGE  DISCRIMINATION. 

in  its  endeavor  to  put  a  stop  to  the  Governmenl  's 
discrimination  against  '  aJifornia  building  ma 
hi  Federal  buildings-in  this  State,  the  State  Min- 
ing I  tuxeau  should  have  the  united  support  of  the 
people,  as  in  i  his  commendable  work,  which  is  foi 
the  best  interests  of  the  whole  State,  it  has  proven 
it  elf  the  most  important  branch  of  the  State  Got 
ernment.  State  Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury 
has  had  several  tilts  with  the  Washington  authori- 
ties mti  this  subject  and  has  .pointed  out   some   verj 

gli |   eases    of   discrimination    against    Calif a 

building  materials,  and  which  discrimination  lias  a 
decided  tendency  nol  only  to  cast  unfavorable  re 
flections  upon  the  quality  of  our  building  materials 
but  as  well  i"  discourage  the  investment  of  capital 
in   i  he  de\  elopment    t  hereof. 

Anbury  has  recently  written  another  scathing 
tetter  to  the  Secretary  of  the  Treasury,  in  which  he 
arraigns  the  Supervising  Architect  of  the  Treasury 
Department,  J.  K.  Taylor,  and  from  plans  and 
|.i<  fie  at  ions  prepared  bj  that  official,  shows  that 
charges  of  discrimination  against  California  are 
sustained  by  official  records  -it'  his  office.  The  letter 
avers  that  Taylor  specifies  stones  and  other 
materials  that  can  be  derived  only  from  certain 
places,  and  thai  he  has  adopted  a  systematic  dis- 
crimination again  si  I  alifornia  materials.  As  proof 
of  ins  assertions,  Aubury  refers  to  the  records  in 
Taylor's  office,  and  to  the  following  Governmenl 
buildings  erected  in  tins  State  and  the  building

that     is.    t<i    uphold    the     honor    and    dignity      Of      the 

State,  and  which  only  can  be  accomplished  by  teach-

inconsistent  with  your  dut ies  and  a  taxation  on 
your    valuable    time,    to    have    some    action    taken, 

Whereby,     in     the    future,    the    natal     day    of    our     he 

loved  State  maj  be  respected  b]  forcing,  if  neces 
sa  ry.  recalcitrants  to  rh.se  their  plaees  of  business 
on  Admission  Day,  and  not,  as  was  done  last  Sat 
unlay,  bring  the  da\  into  contempt  by  flatly  re- 
Fusing  to  reeognize  the  holiday  at  all  and  bj 
ridiculing   the   efforts   of   those    interested    by    jeers 

and    Contemptuous    remarks. 

1  am  writing  tins  to  you.  not  through  a  desire 
for  notoriety,  but  merely  to  express  my  feelings, 
as  a  native  of  California,  to  the  mean  treatment 
accorded  the  state's  birthday  by  a  few  imported 
nobodies  who  only  have  come  here  i<>  make  money 
and  dende  everything  distinctively  Californian 
This  is  written  to  you — not  knowing  whether  you 
have  considered  the  matter  or  intend  to—with  the 
hope  that  you  will  see  your  way  clear  to  bring  the 
matter  officially  to  the  Parlors  of  this  city  and 
state,  whereby  the}  may  take  action  and  bring 
I  hose    who    are    against    us    to    time. 

1  am  a  charter  member  of  a  X.S.u.W.  Parlor 
of    this    city,    and    while    nut    an      active      member, 

have  the  g I  of  the  organization  at  heart,  as  also 

everything  else  that  pertains  to  the  advancemenl 
.»t'  our  state,  l  am  also  a  member  of  The  Society 
of  <  'alifornia  1'ioueers.  and  even  though  were  1  not 
a  member  of  either  body.  I  think  it  my  duty  t" 
stand  by  my  state  and  to  proclaim,  as  I  always  have 

dune,    that     I    am    proud    of  having   been    born    here,    as 

well   as   my   children,   and   children's  children. 

The  merchants  of  oui  city  are,  generally  speak- 
ing, a  lot  of  mural  cowards.  They  close  Labor  Day, 
not  that  they  care  anything  for  the  day,  but  be- 
cause they  are  afraid,  if  they  did  not  do  so,  they 
would  lose  the  patronage  of  the  unions.  Now,  in 
One  way  they  right  the  unions,  but  when  it  comes 
to  making  money,  they  assume  a  friendliness  for 
them.  Xow  why  should  not  we,  as  Native  Sons, 
command  as  much  respect  as  labor  unions;  and 
if  tradesmen  are  afraid  of  unions,  why  not  make 
them  afraid  of  us.'  1  do  not  believe  in  the  "boy- 
cott," lie  ing  too  much  of  -'in  A  men  can  for  that. 
but     it    seems    tu    me    that     it    IS    the    only    Weapon    we 

can  use  to  bring  Mr.  Merchanl  and  Mr.  Storekeeper 
to   time. 

I  am  told  that  the  reason  the  closing  was  not 
genera]  in  tins  city  last  Saturday  was  on  account 
of  a  ' '  tenderfoot ' '  named  Slessi  nger,  who  occu- 
pies the  position  as  manager  of  the  Emporium, 
going  a  run  ml  to  the  various  merchants  and  telling 
them   there  was  no   need   to  close  on   that   day,  and 

lies  ides,    he    is    credit  ed     with     having     made    the    dis- 

courteous  remark :  "Who  in  hell  are  the  Nat ive 
Sons,  anywayt"  Now  this  "new  arrival"  in  our 
midst  is  said  to  hail  from  Chicago,  and  as  he  is 
over  a  \  ery  large  store,  arrogates  to  himself  the 
righl  to  dictate  to  others  that  the  birthday  of  our 
state  should  not  be  observed  as  a  holiday.  To  my 
recollect  ion,  we  existed  long  before  there  was  any 
Emporium  in  this  city,  and  possibly  better,  and  I 
do  nut  know  of  any  reason  why  we  cannot  exist 
in  the  future  just  as  well  without  it.  His  influ- 
ence, so  I  am  informed,  was  the  means  of  that 
other    huge    store — Roos    Bros.— -keeping    open,    and 

even    placing    a    placard,  and    many   of   Them,    in    their 

windows,  calling  attention  to  the  fact  thai  they 
would  remain  npen  all  day.  Xow.  a  large  and 
wealthy  store  like  Roos  Bros,  ought  to  know  bet 
ter,  and  besides,  for  pride's  sake,  they  should  close, 
for  the  present  Boos  Bros,  (the  suns  uf  the  foundei 
■  >t  the  establishment)  are  native  burn,  and  I  think 
if  there  is  any  tit  ing  tu  them  they  should  respect 
their   State    as    well    as    its   historical    episodes.       I    am 

also  told  that  the  said  Slessinger  was  the  menus  of 

O'Connor,     Moffitt     &       Co.       keeping       open,    a     thing 

they  had  nut  done  before  in  forty  years,  and  be 
sides,  if  my  information  is  correct,  most  <>f  the 
bunting,  ribbons,  etc..  used  by  the  N.S.G.W.  in 
■celebrations,  has  heretofore  been  purchased  from 
-:i  ui    firm.

THE    LATE     DANIEL     MEYER 


tured    in    Nevada,    tried    and   sentenced,    but    finally

AN  FRANCISCO  NOW  HAS  A 
symphony  orchestra  which  promises 
tii  become  as  great  a  success  as  has 
the  Lus  Angeles  symphony,  as  it  is 
backed  by  some  of  that  city's  lead- 
ing musicians  and  business  men. 
Henry  Hadley  has  been  selected  as 
the  conductor  at  a  salary  of  $10,000 
per  year,  and  the  first  concert  will 
be  given  in  November.  In  speaking 
of  the  conductor  of  the  San  Fran- 
cisco Symphony,  the  New  York 
Musical    America    of   September   16th   said: 

•'Those  who  knew,  a  number  of  years  ago.  of  the 
training  and  apprenticeship  as  a  conductor  which 
Henry  Hadley  was  undergoing  at  Mainz.  Germany, 
prophesied  that  the  time  was  not  far  distant  when 
he  would  he  leading  prominent  symphony  orches- 
tras in  America.  Among  American-born  musicians. 
Mr.  Hadley  is  perhaps  the  first  to  have  grasped 
the  modern  ideal  in  conducting  and  to  have  con- 
sciously fitted  himself  for  the  life  and  work  of  a 
conductor.  His  reward  comes  now.  when  he  is  suc- 
cessively called  to  posts  of  the  kind  which  he  has 
fitted  himself  for,  the  conductorship,  first,  of  the 
Seattle,  and  now  of  the  new  San  Francisco  or- 
chestra. 

"Henry  Hadley  cones  of  a  distinctly  musical 
family — a  family  of  successful  musicians,  it  can  be 
said.  '  His  father.  S.  Henry  Hadley,  has  long  held 
the  post  of  supervisor  of  music  and  choral  con- 
ductor in  the  schools  of  Somerville,  Massachusetts, 
ami  his  brother.  Arthur  Hadley.  is  the  well-known 
'cellist  of  the  Boston  Symphony  Orchestra,  and 
formerly  of  the  Eaton  Hadley  Trio. 

"His  earnest  songs  show  a  fluency  of  style  and  a 
carefulness  of  workmanship  that  is  surprising,  and 
his  earliest  works  for  orchestra  represent,  as  far  as 
they  go.  a  mastery  of  the  orchestral  medium.  He 
was  also,  at  an  early  age,  a  violinist  of  noteworthy 
abilities,  as  well  as  having  considerable  grasp  of 
piano  technic  In  his  nature  he  combines  a  num- 
ber of  qualities  which  work  together  in  an  excep- 
tionally harmonious  way  for  success.  He  is  spon- 
taneous and  rapid  in  the  execution  of  his  work, 
with  an  extraordinary  power  of  concentration.  On 
occasion,  he  has  found  it  perfectly  possible  to  com- 
pose in  the  midst  of  a  company  of  friends,  talking, 
laughing  and  telling  stories.  Correspondingly,  his 
power  of  relaxation  is  equally  great,  and  once  away 
from  his  work  he  positively  refuses  to  talk  'shop,' 
and  has  peculiarly  gentle  a  way  of  silencing  any- 
one who  attempts  to  lead  him  into  doing  so. 

' '  Hadley 's  first  symphony,  '  Youth  and  Life, ' 
was  produced  by  Anton  Seidl  in  1SS7;  his  second. 
'The  Four  Seasons."  created  something  of  a  sensa- 
tion in  1901  by  taking  simultaneously  two  prizes. 
His  orchestral  fantasy  on  Rodman  Drake's  'The 
Culprit  Fay,'  carried  off  the  National  Federation  of 
Musical  Clubs'  prize  at  Grand  Rapids  a  little  over 
two  years  ago.  and  his  most  recent  symphony, 
"North.  South.  Fast  and  West,'  was  invited  into  ex- 
istence through  the  munificence  of  Mr.  Carl 
Stoeekel,  who  gave  the  work  its  first  hearing  at  the 
last  meeting  of  the  Litchfield  County  Choral  Union 
at  Norfolk,  Connecticut,  in  the  spring  of  the  pres- 
ent  year. 

"Hadley's  music  shows  a  basis  of  Germanic 
training,  especially  his  earlier  works,  and  a  not  un- 
marked Wagnerian  influence.  Like  other  wide- 
awake American  composers  of  the  present,  he  has 
refused  to  remain  enchained  in  the  German  har- 
monic system,  and  without  at  all  aping  the  modern 
Frenchmen  he  has.  nevertheless,  gained  consider- 
able harmonic  freedom  from  familiarity  with  other 
harmonic  modes  than  the  earlier  German.  In  his 
freedom  of  orchestral  treatment  he  is  not  without 
the  influence  of  Richard  Strauss.  But  above  all  is 
the  nadleyan  freshness  and  spontaneity  of  fancy 
and  the  lucid  ami  individual  coloring,  which  lends 
his  work  everywhere  grace  and  charm.  Exuberance 
is  to  be  found  throughout  Hadley's  work,  though 
force,  while  not  wanting,  is  more  an  occasional 
factor.

■ -—    \ 


Every  California  residence,  do  matter  how  imposing  or  how  small,  lends  itself  much  more  easily  to 
beautiful  landscape  surroundings  than  do  those  in  other  portions  of  the  country,  where  the  climate  is  nol 
so  equable  and  the  growth  of  gardens  so  luxuriant.  Whether  mission,  bungalow,  chalet  or  "California" 
in  misc.  each,  in  a  distinctly  a  ppropriate  manner,  is  capable  of  having  its  beauty  considerably  enhanced 
by  well-considered  landscape  gardening  embracing  such  features  as  winding  brick,  gravel,  or  cement, 
walks,  bordered  flower  bods,  pergolas  and,  in  some  cases,  fountains.  Many  a  California  house  of  rather 
plain  and,  in  some  cases  unsightly^  exterior  appearance,  lias  been  greatly  improved  in  general  a ppear- 
ance,   by   judicious    treatment    of   the   lawns  and   gardens  surrounding    it. 

The  above  pid  ured  residence,  which  is  built  on  a  150-foot  lot,  is  set  back  about  one  hundred  feel 
from  the  street,  the  street  side  of  the  lot  being  enclosed  by  a  heavy  brick  wall,  and  winding  brick  walks 
leading  up  to  the  residence,  as  shown  in  the  above  picture. 

The  bungalow  itself  is  about  40x60  feet  on  the  ground,  and  lias  three  bed-rooms,  a  large  sleeping 
porch,  living-room,  dining-room  and  kitchen.  The  living-room  and  dining-room  extend  across  the  fronl 
of  the  building,  and  are  divided  only  by  a  beam.  The  living  room  has  a  large  open  fireplace  constructed 
of   blue   brick,    which    runs   to    the   ceiling,   supporting  heavy  beams   which   extend   across  the   rgom. 

This  residence  alone  cost  $4,nno,  but  with  an  additional  expenditure  of  about  $600  for  the  land 
scape  gardening,  is  made  to  appear  like  a  much  more  expensive  home-place.  This  illustration  shows 
I  hat.  with  the  judicious  use  of  a  little  money,  gardening  features  can  be  made  t..  materially  add  to  the 
beauty,  as  well  as  value,  of  any  house  erected  in  California,  where  every  condition  works  to  the  sue- 
cessful  cultivation  of  flowers,  grass,  trees  and  shrubbery.  In  fact,  no  homo  in  California  is  complete 
without    well-kept    flower   gardens  and   lawns. 


The  Ibepenbrock  theater  in  Sacramento  ha^ 
closed,    owing    to    poor    patronage.      The    house    is    a 

new  one  and   has  been   devoted   to   Mock   attraction-. 

Robert  Milliard  will  make  his  final  appearance  in 
*'A     Pool     There     Was,"     in     California     this     scusmi. 

"Get  Rich  Quick  Wallingford"  is  also  headed  this 
way. 

By  next  March.  San  Ian--  ObispO  will  have  a  now 
theater  with  a  seating  capacity  of  1000.  A  new 
vaudeville  house  is  also  in  course  of  construction 
1  here. 

The   Auditorium    stock    company,    Los   Angeles,    has 

ceased  to  exist,  owing  to  insufficient  capital.  This 
assures  the  house's  availability  for  the  season  's 
musical    attractions. 

' '  The  Flirting  Princess"  is  appearning  at  the 
State  theaters.  "The  Country  Hoy,''  ''Bright 
Eyes,"  "The  Old  Town"  and  -'Seven  Days"  an 
;ilso  booked  for  early  production. 

Singling  Brothers'  circus  has  been  doing  an 
enormous    business    throughout    the   state   the    past 

month.  The  show  is  fairly  good,  but  the  animal  dis- 
play  decidedly  inferior  as  to   variety. 

Humor  has  it  that  both  the  Orpheum  ami  Sullivan 
&  Considine  vaudeville  circuits  will  soon  have  then 
own  houses  in  Surra  men  to.  It  is  not  improbable 
that    tiie    S.    &    ( '.    people    will    secure   the   Clunie. 

During  the  fall  term  at  the  University  of  Califor- 
nia. Berkeley,  tie-  women  students  composing  the 
Treble  Clef  ( iub  will  present  the  opera  "  When 
Johnny  '  !omes  Marching  Home,"  with  Paul  Stein 
dorff  as  musical   director. 

The  Lyceum,  Los  Angeles,  which  has  been  devoted 
to  musical  productions  of  a  very  inferior  class  the 
past  four  months,  will  be  used  for  road  shows  after 
the  15th  of  this  month,  which  means  that  Ed  Arm 
strong  and  his  •■pomes''  must    vacate. 

''The  Girl  in  the  Taxi."  that  put  in  an  appear 
ance  in  California  last  month,  had  to  mend  Etsways 
before  the  performance  could  proceed  at  Los  Ange 
les,    where    it    was   censored    as    too    suggest  ive.      At 

WatSOnville,  the  management  of  the  theater  barred 
the    production    altogether,   as   did    other    cities. 

Max  Ibll  bumped  up  again  si  the  Musicians'  Union 
in  Santa  Cruz,  September  16th,  when,  upon  instruc 
ttou-    from    St .    Lou  is.    his    musical    director,   a    Mr. 

Paynes      under    tin  eat     of    a     heavy     fine,     refused     In 

play  or  direel  the  drchestra,  because  the  Dill  eom 
pany   had   booked   to   play  at    the     Casino     theater, 


which  is  boyeotted.    One  of  the  company,  however, 
helped  out   the  situation   to  the  satisfaction  of  the 
large  audience  by  presiding  at  the  piano  and  direct 
ing    the    orchestra.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


October,    191 


LORIOUS,  G  O  L  D  E  N  (  ><  TOREK. 
when  summer's  fierce  heat  is  tem- 
pered by  a  softer,  richer  atmos- 
phere and  surroundings!  June  is  to 
summer,  what  October  is  to  autumn, 
yet  we  may  aptly  quote  Tennyson  in 
those  expressive  lines,  "As  moon- 
light unto  sunlight,  and  as  water 
unto  wine!"  when  comparing  June 
and  October.  The  difference — ah, 
yes.  in  the  wanner,  richer  glows  of 
Nature  ere  she  bows  her  head  to 
the  life-giving  rains,  especially  iu  the  mountains, 
among  the  ever- varying  shades  of  Autumn  's 
blooms. 

Then.  too.  comes  our  deeper  colorings  in  miladi's 
costumes,  when  she  sallies  forth,  ' '  new  worlds  to 
conquer,"  in  all  the  glory  of  some  chic  and  natty 
fall  suit.  A  few  ideas  in  the  season  *s  offerings 
have  been  gleaned  from  our  simps,  that  vie  with 
Xew  York  in  the  up-to-dateness  of  their  displays 
■  >f   the    new   and   beautiful. 

Fall    and    Winter    Coat-Suits. 


A  navy  wide  wale  serge 
two  piece  suit  was  made 
up  with  broad  black  nov- 
elty silk  braid  as  trim- 
ming on  the  coat.  The 
braid  was  so  wide  that  it 
was  used  entirely  for  the 
collar,  and  folded  so  as  to 
form  a  deep  point  in  the 
back,  where  it  was  stitched 
in  three  tiny  rows.  The 
long  reveres  in  front  were 
also  folded  to  form  an  ir- 
regular square  effect  on 
each  side,  nearly  to  the 
wraist-line,  with  tiny  black 
silk  covered  buttons  as 
t  r  i  m  in  i  n  g  through,  or 
across,  the  folds.  Wide 
turn-back  cuffs  were  of 
this  braid,  with  the  tiny 
buttons  as  garniture.  A 
three-gore  skirt  had  two 
narrow  side  pleats  at  each 
side  of  front.  The  open- 
ing at  the  left  side  front, 
and  the  panel  back,  are 
features  of  these  three- 
piece  skirts.  Coats  are 
mostly  panel  back  and 
semi-fitting.  Braiding  is 
extensively  displayed  on 
suits  this  month,  and  prom- 
ises to  continue  in  favor 
all  winter. 

A  golden-brown  broad- 
cloth was  made  with  silk 
soutache  braid  as  trim- 
ming on  both  the  skirt  and 
coat.  The  coat  was  lined 
with  a  lighter  shade  of 
brown  satin,  giving  it  a 
warm  and  rich  appear- 
ance.       The     long    Square     re-     Novelty  Tweed  Two-piece  Suit. 

veres  on  the  front  of  the  -Design  from  Swelldom.  L.  A. 
coat  were  inlaid  with  light  tan  broadcloth,  hand- 
embroidered,  while  the  deep  turn-back  cuffs  of  the 
broadcloth  were  heavily  braided  with  the  same 
shade  of  silk  soutache.  Large  pearl  buttons  closed 
it  in  front.  The  skirt,  in  the  draped  effect,  was 
heavily  braided  on  the  point  over  the  left  side,  and 
straight  around  the  right  side  and  back,  near  the 
hem.  This  irregular  trimming,  in  either  folds  or 
braiding,  is  decidedly  natty  and  tends  to  relieve 
an    otherwise   prosaic   effect. 

A  rough  Scotch  tweed  made  into  a  two-piece 
suit  was  distinctive  in  style  and  cut.  The  coat  had 
deep  rounded  reveres  in  front,  and  a  medium  round 
collar  at  the  back.  Oriental  trimming  was  inset 
all  around  the  collar  and  on  reveres.  A  velvet 
hand  also  trimmed  the  collar  and  deep  turn-back 
cuffs.  The  buttons  for  closing  need  special  mention. 
as  they  were  certainly  odd.  Two  long  black  rolls 
with  gold  bands  around  each  end.  at  the  left  side 
front  of  ...at.  and  mar  the  waist  line,  set  off  that 
particular  model  in  a  natty  way.  A  two-piece  skirt 
with  panel  back,  trimmed  with  velvet  buttons  an  I 
a    row    of    velvet    buttons    part    way    down    the    front. 


combined  very  prettily  with  the  general  unique  de- 
sign of  the  coat,  and  such  a  suit  would  doubtless 
prove  a  most  desirable  addition  to  even  a  bridal 
trousseau. 

Novelty  tweed  is  another  popular  weave,  and 
combined  with  wide  silk  military  braid  as  trim- 
ming 011  collar,  deep  reveres.  turn-back  enffs, 
around  the  bottom  of  the  coat,  and  on  side  j>anels 
of  the  skirt,  as  per  accompanying  illustration,  and 
there  you   are,  with   a   decidedly  up-to-date  suit. 

Soft  felt  hats,  either  broad  or  medium  brims, 
and  rather  high  crowns  that  can  be  dented  in  to 
suit  the  wearer,  with  just  a  high  fancy  feather  or 
wings  at  the  back,  go  well  with  any  of  the  above 
suits. 

Rlack  velvet  promises  to  be  a  favorite  material 
fur  street  suits,  and  combines  beautifully  with  silk 
braiding  or  applique  work.  Soutache  and  the  flat 
military  braid  are  very  pretty  for  conventional 
designs,  on  both  skirts  and  coats. 

Coronation  velvet  bands  are  used  on  black  vel- 
vet for  trimming  cuffs,  collars  and  bottom  of 
skirts.  Many  of  these  coats  have  an  extreme  left- 
side closing,  with  a  flat  military  bow  of  black 
satin  and  long  ends  with  netted  silk  fringe  of  the 
color  used  for  trimming.  Some  of  the  coats  are  in 
a  decided  cut-away  style— for  aping  our  masculine 
friends  in  so  many  of  their  severe  tailored  models 
is   quite   correct    now,  you    know. 

White  wool  suits  in  rough  and  smooth  mixtures 
continue  very  good  for  autumn  wear,  as  well  as 
all  dainty  shades  and  pin  stripes.  These  goods, 
made  into  two  piece  suits,  are  correct  for  street. 
semi  dress,  or  for  the  opera,  informal  teas  and 
luncheons. 

One-piece  gowns  and  frocks  of  dainty  wool,  iu 
both  white  and  pastel  shades,  are  also  very  much 
in  vogue.  When  combined  with  lace  and  satin 
bands  or  folds,  they  vie  with  the  daintier  and  film- 
ier materials  for  beauty,  and  are  more  durable  for 
those  who  cannot  afford  a  new  gown  for  every 
occasion.  In  point  of  daintiness,  though,  chiffon 
takes   the    lead    in 

Evening  and  Dancing  Frocks. 

A  dainty  light-blue  chiffon,  round  length  skirt. 
which  was  tucked  lengthwise  at  the  hips  to  fit  into 
the  high  waist  line,  had  two  dee])  folds  of  same 
material  jiut  above  a  four-inch  fold  of  satin  used 
in  lieu  of  a  hem.  The  waist  was  a  draped  front, 
with  folded  satin  girdle  crossing  in  front  and  ex- 
tending a  little  up  into  the  full  front  at  each  side, 
with  a  rosette  to  finish  each  end.  This  is  certainly 
a  becoming  mode  to  most  any  one  who  does  not 
tip  the  scales  much  over  the  100-pound  mark.  The 
yoke  and  sleeves  were  of  cluny.  chiffon  trimmed. 
Kimono  sleeves  are  in  many  styles,  for  kimono  is 
queen    in    all    gowns. 

A  sea-shell  pink  chiffon  frock  next  attracted  my 
attention,  as  it  was  fashioned  in  tunic  style,  over 
a  lace  skirt.  The  high  waist  line  was  outlined  with 
a  braided  light-blue  ribbon  and  finished  with  loops 
of  the  same  at  left-side  back.  The  waist,  of  lace, 
was  crossed  in  front,  a  la  -kerchief  style.  Narrow 
blue  satin  ribbon  edged  this  crossed  lace,  and  the 
short  sleeves,  which  were  also  of  lace.  The  tunic 
opened  both  in  front  and  back  at  left  side,  and 
was  finished  with  a  broad  band  of  the  pink  chiffon. 

Both  plain  and  flowered  chiffons  are  extremely 
dainty  for  these  dancing  frocks.  A  very  light 
shade  of  pink,  with  a  deep  floral  design  stamped 
in  above  hem  all  around  the  skirt,  the  same  design 
around  the  low  Dutch  neck  and  on  short  kimono 
sleeves,  or  pure  white  chiffon  with  the  floral  de- 
signs, is  very  dear  to  feminine  hearts,  especial! v 
those   who   trip   the  light   fantastic. 

Now,  after  one  has  feasted  their  eyes  on  chiffon, 
lace,  and  other  filmy  materials,  there  comes  into 
our  line  of  vision  a  new  fabric  for  evening  gowns 
that  miladi  will  hasten  to  add  to  her  repertory. 
Satin  eharmeuse,  it  is  styled,  and  many  are  the 
shades  and  colorings,  as  well  as  black!  that  we 
may  find  it  in.  A  gown  of  French-blue  eharmeuse 
was  combined  with  cerise  in  the  same  material  and 
Oriental  lace,  and  a  very  chic  and  novel  combina- 
tion it  was.  too.  The  collar,  of  cerise,  had  a  deep 
revere  on  the  left  front  and  a  smaller  Oriental 
collar  over  same,  with  an  Oriental  revere  on  right 
side  opposite  the  cerise.  Deep  cuffs  of  cense, 
overlaid  with  Oriental  lace  on  the  three-quarter 
kimono  sleeves,  set  off  the  blue  to  fine  advantage. 
The  skirt  was  in  round  length  with  tunic  effect  in 
front  finished  in  heavy  flat  fringe  of  the  char 
ineuse.  -The  back  of  the  skirt  was  in  straight  plain 
style.  A  folded  girdle  of  the  French-blue  fastened 
at   the   back. 


One   other   in    this   new   material   was     of 


bla< 


satin  eharmeuse.  Blue  reveres  on  waist,  and  deep 
cuffs  on  the  three-quarter  sleeves,  were  pretty 
features  in  this  gown.  A  hand-embroidered 
plastron  front  finished  the  ends  of  reveres  at 
waist  line,  and  an  Arabian  lace  yoke  and  stock 
gave  an  "air"  that  accentuated  its  beauty.  The 
two-piece  skirt  had  folds  to  trim  it.  with  tiny 
black  covered  buttons  down  the  front  gore.  A 
loose  panel  back,  trimmed  with  ball  fringe  at  the 
bottom,  reached  nearly  to  the  hem.  No  belt  or 
girdle,  but  just  piping,   outlined   the  waist. 

So    many    materials    are    suitable      for      evening 
gowns,      that      only   a    few   are    mentioned.      Crepe 
meteor  is  another  dainty  silk,  and  is  used  for  both 
evening    and    street    costumes    in    one-piece    gown-< 
or  frocks.      The   question    of   suitable 

Foot-wear  for  the  Street 

and  evening 
dress,  a  1  w  a  y  s 
Arises,  so  it  is  well 
to  cite  some  of 
the  latest  models 
as  a  help  in  time 
of  need.  For  all 
evening  wear  on 
full  or  semi-dress 
occasions,  pumps 
or  sandals  are  cor- 
rect. Very  high 
French  heels,  with 
the  high  arch,  arc 
seen  on  most  of 
these  dainty  low- 
shoes.  Cuba  n 
heels  will  also  be 
worn,  but  the  ex- 
treme F  r  e  n  c  h 
ones  are  more  in 
vogue,  though  nol 
as    comfortable.

The    I  lussa  r,   sixteen-buttoned   bunt,   as   per   illus

In    the    line   of    the

one  -■CCS  mostly  those  soft  felts  with   high  crowns, 
some    with    narrow    rolling    brims    and    others    wide 
brims  and  lower  crowns,  if  preferred. 

In  order  to  suit  the  hair  to  the  hat.  the  latesl 
in  hair  dressing  is  the  ' '  steeple  mode,"  which  is 
worn  in  large  soft  coils  high  over  the  c  own  of  th  > 
head,  or  nearer  the  front  if  one  cannot  stand  f In- 
long  eti'ect  over  the  crown.  Broad  soft  bands  of 
silk  or  satin  ribbon  arc  wound  around  or  through 
t  hose  .nils.  Soft  waves  and  curls,  rat  her  low  on 
the  forehead  and  drooping  over  the  ears,  make  this 

style    very    becoming   to   some    faces.      Where   one   can 

stand  the  effect,  the  ' '  psyche  knot"  is  anothei 
renovated  mode.  Puffs  and  soft  curls  continue  in 
favor,  for  it  is  hard  to  give  up  anything  that  tends 
to  seemingly  drop  the  years  from  one.  and  make 
time  stand  still  for  awhile,  or  even  turn  backward 
a    few  years. 

There  is  always  something  new  under  the  sun. 
t  hough    pessimists    claim    otherwise. 

In  the  Jewelry  World, 
we  see  (he  new  imitation  pearl  bead  necklaces, 
which  are  guaranteed  to  be  absolutely  indestruct- 
ible. They  come  with  or  without  the  jewel  clasp, 
a  nd  are  styled  strictly  <  'alifornia  products.  The 
clasps  or  sua  ps  are  inset  witli  semi -precious  Cali- 
fornia stones,  and  experts  claim  there  is  no  differ 
ence  in  the  appearance  of  these  pearls,  side  by 
side,    with    t lie   genuine    stones. 

For  tailored  collars  or  ties,  t  hose  long  bar  pins 
of  Cloisonne*  enamel,  with  California  floral  designs, 
are  very  beautiful  and  come  in  many  designs  and 
coloringfe. 

Tapestry  bags  are  also  displayed,  and  as  this  is 
I  lie  day  of  color  effects,  one  such  earned  with  a 
Chic  costume  is  much  prettier  and  daintier,  besides 
newer    than    the    regulation    purse    or    shopping    bag. 

Apropos    of   t^ie    Season, 
these  two   tried  and   true   recipes   may   prove   valua- 
ble   in    disposing    of    some    ripe    and    green    tomatoes, 
as    well    as    pleasing    the    palate:

the  .jingle  of  Spanish    spurs  and   the  tramp  of   horses 

'  To  arms! '  We  had  one  single-barrel  lock  rifle, 
but    the    Hi  nt    had    been    lost. 

"Humors    of    war    with    Mexico    had    reached    us. 

and  thinking   it   was  an   attack,   we   met    1 1 a  em} 

in  undress  uniform.  It  proved  a  recruit  ing  party 
tor  Colonel  .1.  C\  Fremont,  <  'aptain  Ford  in  com 
111:1ml.      Five,   myself   included,  enlisted  on  the  spot. 

I    was    ragged    and    barefooted,    but    had    six    bits,    for 

I    was   never  quite   broke   in    my   life.      We   started, 

ami    by    daylight      reached      Sutter    Fort.      Captain 

Henry    I,.    Ford    (who    by    the    way    was   an    early    sel 

tier  of  f'olusa   County  and   its  first    Assemblyman), 

carried     loose     horses    and     I     rode    a     mustang,     bare

Delaware  and  Shawnee  braves  Colonel  Fremont 
had  brought  with  him  on  his  exploring  expedition. 
''Borrowing  a  few  pop-gun  cannons  of  Sutter, 
Fremont  went  in  pursuit  of  the  enemy  living  on 
the  wilds  of  the  land  like  Indians.  Overtaking 
Castro  ca>t   of  Monterey   we  thrashed  all   we  could 

in  a  running  tight.  The  Mexicans  made  then  last 
stand  at  I,os  A 11  gel  es.  Tak  ing  t  !as  t  ro  ami  RlCO, 
their  governor,  the  war  in  <  'alifornia  was  over. 
When     we    disbanded     I     had    $25    ami    a    plug.

land  a  hide  and  tallow  boat.  It  is  San  Francisco 
now,  I  worked  tor  Yount,  Ciiggshv  and  others  of 
Napa     Valley    until    the    spring    of     '47.       The    eternal 

desire  to  see  Fannie  got  me.  Through  the  influ-

around.  Where  b'eno  now  is.  1500  I'iutes  and  Pitts 
gave  us  battle  at  daybreak.  Garrett  Long  and  my- 
self fought  behind  the  same  sage  bushes.  I  never 
saw  Garrett  dodge  a  bullet.  Some  of  our  boys,  too. 
bled,  and  we  killed  many  of  the  Indians  before  we 
succeeded  in  beat  ing  them  off.  They  troubled  us 
sorely  until,  at  t he  head  of  the  Humboldt,  in  a 
parley,  the  <  lommodore  had  me  and  Jim  buy  them 
off.

THE      GRIZZLY      BEAR 


October,    191  I 


OW  THAT  THE  STATE  HIGHWAY 
Commission  has  been  appointed  and 
organized  for  active  work,  interest 
throughout  the  State  is  keen  as  to 
the  course  to  be  followed  by  the 
great  State  Highway  for  which  The 
People  voted  $18,000,000  bonds,  and 
which  this  commission  will  handle. 
Many  meetings  have  been  hold  in 
various  sections  of  the  State,  which 
have  resulted  in  petitions  being 
riled  with  the  Highway  Commission 
hi  behalf  "f  certain  selected  routes. 

No  intimation  has  been  given  out,  however,  as 
to  where  the  State  Highway  will  be  built,  the  com- 
mission desiring  first  to  obtain  all  possible  informa- 
tion about  mads  and  routes  of  travel  in  the  vari- 
ous counties,  and  it  is  incumbent  upon  those- favor- 
ing certain  routes  to  supply  the  necessary  data  to 
those  who  will  have  the  selection  of  the  route  to  be 
followed  by  the  State's  great  highway.  When  all 
this  information  is  in  the  hands  of  the  commission, 
a  route  will  be  selected,  based  upon  road-building 
conditions,  population,  and  assessed  valuation  of 
property  contiguous  to  the.  proposed  route. 

Benton  A.  Towne.  ''has.  D.  Blaney  and  N.  D. 
Darlington,  composing  the  California  Highway 
( 'onimission,  have  sent  the  following  letter  to  the 
Boards  of  Supervisors  of  the  State,  and  in  the  final 
selection  of  a  route  for  the  highway  much  will  de 
pend  upon  the  information  gained  iu  the  replies 
thereto: 

"To  the  Honorable  Board  of  Supervisors — Gen- 
tlemen: For  the  purpose  of  more  quickly  obtain- 
ing all  data  possible  upon  which  to  base  our  final 
decision  as  to  the  most  feasible  route  for  the  State 
Highway  System  through  your  portion  of  the  State, 
we  would  ask  your  hearty  co-operation,  and  would 
request  that  you  submit  to  this  commission,  as  soon 
as  you  can  conveniently,  a  complete  map  of  your

Bird  Season  Opens  This  Month. 

Hunters  throughout  the  State  are  getting  their 
hunting  outfits  in  readiness  for  the  duck  season, 
which  opens  in  the  several  hunting  districts  of  the 
State  this  month.  Club  premises  are  also  being  put 
in  condition  to  accommodate  those  so  fortunate  as 
to  belong  to  any  of  the  numerous  preserves  eon- 
trolled  by  private  parties  in  all  sections  of  the 
State.  Reports  from  all  places  where  the  tooth- 
some ducks  are  coaxed  into  congregating  for  the 
benefit  of  hunters  indicate  a  goodly  supply,  and 
those  who  enjoy  seeking  them  in  the  lakes  and 
sloughs — or.  more  properly,  hiding  behind  "blinds" 
and  waiting  for  the  ducks  to  hunt  out  their  slay- 
ers,— are  anticipating  great  sport  and  limit  bags. 

The  dates  of  the  open  season  for  ducks,  ibis  and 
other  shore  birds,  in  the  various  districts,  are  laid 
down   in  the  new  game  laws  as  follows: 

District  One — October   1st   to  March  1st. 

District  Two — October  loth  to  March  1st. 

District  Threi — October  15th  to  March  1st. 

District    Four — October  loth   to  March  1st. 

District    Five — October  loth  to  March  1st. 

District  Six — October  1st  to  March   1st. 

The  same  law  prescribes  that  the  bag  limit  tor 
ducks  is  twenty  five  in  one  day  and  not  more  than 
titty  in  one  week  for  one  person.  The  limit  on  ibis 
and  other  shore  birds  is  fixed  at  twenty  per  day. 

From  October  1st  to  April  1st  it  will  be  lawful 
to  kill  black  sen  brant  in  District  One.  provided 
the  hunter  keeps  within  the  limit  of  twenty-five 
per  day  ami    not    more   than   fifty  in   one   week." 

The  lively  valley  and  desert  quail  are  sub- 
jects for  legal  killing  in  District  One.  Two.  Three. 
Four  and  Five  from  October  15th  to  February  15th, 
ami  iii  District  Six  from  October  15th  to  Novem- 
ber   15th.      Bag  limit,   twenty  birds  per  day.

The  great  showing  made  by  Los  Angeles  is  un- 
questionably due  to  the  excellent  roads,  which  en- 
courage the  owning  of  automobiles  for  pleasure  as 
well  as  business  purposes.  Good  roads  have  been  a 
hobby  in  Southern  California,  and  especially  Los 
Angeles  County,  for  a  number  of  years,  while  it  is 
but  recently  that  the  northern  and  central  portions 
of  the  State  have  taken  up  the  systematic  improve- 
ment of  the  highways.  This  accounts  for  there  be- 
ing in  the  twelve  counties  of  Southern  California 
today  15,955  automobiles,  against  15,474  machines 
in  the  remaining  forty-three  counties  of  the   State. 


All   Ready  for  Big  Road  Race. 

The  Santa  Monica  Road  Race,  which  will  be  held 
under  the  auspices  of  the  Los  Angeles  Motor  Deal- 
ers' Association  the  14th  of  this  month,  is  attract- 
ing attention  throughout  the  country,  and  there  is 
every  promise  of  an  immense  crowd  of  spectators 
and  the  smashing  of  records.  Everything  is  iu 
readiness  for  the  event,  and  there  will  be  more 
entries  than  ever  before.  Two  races  have  been  pro- 
vided for,   a  light-car  event  and   a  free-for-all. 

The  light  car  race  will  start  at  daybreak  and  will 
be  run  over  a  course  of  approximately  150  miles. 
The  Leon  T.  Sbettler  $500  trophy  and  a  substantial 
cash  prize  will  be  awarded  the  winner. 

The  free-for-all  race  will  start  immediately  after 
the  course  has  been  cleared  of  the  light  cars.  Many 
factories  have  built  cars  especially  for  this  race, 
and  the  large  number  of  entries  to  date  insures 
some  speedy  racing.  The  prize  will  consist  of  $5000 
cash  and  the  Dick  Ferris  $1000  cup. 

The  Santa  Monica  authorities  and  the  committee 
in  charge  are  getting  the  race  course  in  better 
shape 'than  ever  before,  and  as  no  admission  will 
be  charged  this  year,  plans  are  being  made  for 
handling  a  crowd  of  a  hundred  thousand  people. 
Last  year's  events  over  this  course  drew  a  record- 
breaking  crowd,  thousands  going  down  to  the  beach 
city  from  Los  Angeles  the  night  before  and  camp- 
ing out  along  the  course  over  night,  in  order  to  be 
on  hand  when  the  first  race  started  at   sun-up. 


Rincon  Sea-level  Road  Assured. 
The  necessary  money  having  been  pledged,  the 
Rincon  sea-level  road,  that  means  the  shortening 
of  the  distance  between  Santa  Barbara  and  Ven- 
tura by  several  miles  and  consequently  making  a 
more  attractive  trip  to  autoinobilists  from  San 
Francisco  to  Los  Angeles,  the  work  on  the  cut-off 
will  now  be  pushed  to  speedy  completion.  While 
much  of  the  money  came  from  residents  of  Santa 
Barbara  and  Ventura  Counties,  a  considerable 
amount  was  also  pledged  by  motor  enthusiasts  in 
San  Francisco  and  Los  Angeles.  Among  the  con- 
tributors were:  Reina  Del  Mar  Parlor,  N.D.G.W., 
Sauta  Barbara.  $125;  Buena  Ventura  Parlor,  N7D. 
G.W.,  Ventura,  $100,  and  Cabrillo  Parlor,  N.S.G.W., 
Ventura,  $100.  These  donations  were  made  largely 
through  sentiment,  for  the  reason  that  the  proposed 
road  will  assure  the  reconstruction  of  a  part  of  old 
El  Camino  Real,  and  also  for  the  reason  that  these 
Parlors  have  always  shown  a  decided  tendency  to 
aid,  both  financially  and  morally,  all  things  that 
have-  for  their  object  the  betterment  of  their  sec- 
tion of  the  State. 


Much  Revenue  From  Automobilists. 
since  the  State  law  providing  for  fees  for  auto- 
mobile   registrations    and    chauffeurs'   licenses   went 
into   effect   in   1905,   and  up  to  July  31st   this  year, 

*1 51. 375. 50  has  been  paid  into  the  State  Treasury 
from  these  sources.  The  figures  show  that  the  auto- 
mobile is  becoming  more  popular  each  year,  and  is 
being  generally   used  by  both  the  city  and  country 


folk.  The  gain  in  popularity  is  best  shown  by  the 
yearly  revenue,   as   given   below: 

1905    $14,554.50 

.1906    13.403.00 

1907    16,688.50 

1908    16,718.50 

1909    24,397.00 

1910    36,951.00 

1911  (to    July    31st) 28.662.51)

Pacific    Coast    Magnates    Meet. 

Pacific  Coast  League  baseball  magnates  met  iu 
San  Francisco,  September  19th,  and  indulged  iu  a 
more  or  less  formal  conference.  Only  three  clubs —

WANTED:    A  LOST  BOY! 

HELP    LOCATE    HIM. 

Eoscoe  G.  Emerson  disappeared  from  his 
home  in  Santa  Monica,  July  5th,  and  as  his 
parents  have  heard  nothing  from  him  are  very 
anxious  to  locate  him,  and  have  appealed  to 
The  Grizzly  Bear  to  help  them  in  the  search. 

Roscoe  is  described  as  nearly  six  feet  tall, 
about  150  pounds  weight,  and  while  he  would 
easily  pass  for  one  much  older,  is  but  16  years 
of  age.  He  has  dark  eyes  and  hair,  and  when 
he  left  home  was  attired  in  a  light  tan  hat 
with  black  band,  blue  serge  suit  and  tan  but- 
ton  shoes. 

Eoscoe  had  just  graduated  from  the  gram- 
mar school,  and  his  mother,  who  is  very  anx- 
ious to  get  trace  of  him,  can  assign  no  reason 
for  his  disappearance.  The  family  formerly 
lived  in  San  Francisco  and  he  may  have  re- 
turned  there. 

Keep  a  lookout  for  Roscoe.  and  if  you  see 
him  communicate  at  once  with  his  mother, 
Mrs.  C.  F.  Emerson,  156  Wadsworth  avenue, 
Ocean  Park,  California,  who  will  gladly  pay 
$25  reward  for  any  definite  information  con- 
cerning  her  lost   son.

The     plea     that     business     has     been     dull     and     that 

the   holiday   occurred   on   a    Saturday,   a    day    when 

the\      expected     to     recuperate     from     a        bad        week's 

business,   with    the    intervention    of    Labor    Day    as 

well  in  the  week,  is  no  excuse;  and  if  it  is,  it  is 
a  \  cry  poor  one.  What  t  hey  lose  in  one  day  b\ 
closing,    t  hey    gain    on    another    when     t  hey    a  re    open 

for  business.  For  a  long  time,  and  until  a  shorl 
time  ago,  the  Emporium  kept  open  every  Satur- 
day evening,  but,  I  presume,  on  account  of  a  dele 
gation    of   workingmen   going   to   them   and    requesi 

ing  that  t  hey  close,  they  have,  si  nee  the  first  of 
the  year.  I  believe,  closed  on  Saturday  evenings 
after  (i  o'clock,  and  I  guess  what  little  they  lost 
by  said  closing  has  been  fully  made  up  on  the  other 
open    days. 

As  previously  stated,  I  am  no!  in  fa  \  or  of  the 
" boycott,' '  but  I  think  if  we  stand  together  now, 
and  right  now,  and  refuse  to  patronize  SUCH  stores 
as  do  not  respect  us  or  our  State's  birthday,  that 
we  will  make  a  decided  advance  in  being  recog- 
nized as  something  in  the  future,  and  not  spurned 
by  having  said  of  us  ''Who  in  hell  ate  the  Native 

Sons,    anyway  P  '  ' 

This    is    neither    political    nor    religious,    in    its    pro 

test,   bu!    a   decenl    regard   for  the  offspring   of  the 

Slate,  and  if  we  have  no  respect  for  ourselves,  cer- 
tainly we  cannol  expect  others  to  respecl  us.  I 
believe  now  is  the  time  to  take  action,  and  I  would 
SUggesI  that  if  you  can  see  your  way  clear,  you 
call  a  meeting  of  the  present  presiding  officers  of 
1  I it  v     Parlors,     besides       such       of       your       Grand 

Officers  as  can  conveniently  attend  without  any 
expense  to  the  Grand  Parlor,  and  devise  a  way  bj 
which  the  membership  can  proclaim  its  views;  and 
if  of  the  same  opinion  as  myself,  take  drastic  action 
againsl  these  who.  by  intent,  insulted  us  in  more 
than    one    way    Inst    Saturday. 

Let  us  acclaim  ourselves  as  loyal  to  our  Si  at  i', 
and  if  needs  be.  by  touching  the  pockets  of  those 
who  covertly  assail  us,  show  them  that   the   trade  of 

Native    Sons    is    as    g l    and    fa  r    reaching    as    t  lie 

business  of  other  persons,  whether  union  men  or 
not.  I  am  not  decrying  unionism,  neither  am  I 
lauding  it ;  but  if  the  unions  are  to  lie  respect  ed, 
at     least     out  wardly,    then     let     the     X.S.I  ;.W.     receive

^1  UMOK  HAS  IT  THAT  THE  KERN 
Trading  and  Oil  Company  and  the 
Southern  Pacific  Company  are  to 
be  made  defendants  in  a  suit  which 
the  Federal  Government  is  about  to 
institute  for  the  recovery  of  be- 
tween  111(1,000  and  150,000  acres  of 
oil  lands  in  Kern  County  valued  at 
more  than  $400,000,000,  and  some  of 
it  the  most  valuable  oil  lands  in  the 
State. 

The  proposed  suit  is  to  be  waged 
by  the  General  Land  Office  and  is  said  to  be  in  line 
with  the  Washington  administration's  policy  to  re- 
eovei  for  the  Government  all  lands  alleged  to  be  il- 
legally held  by  corporations  and  private  interests, 
and  which  are  still  a  part — and  incidentally  a  very 
valuable  part,  too, — of  the  public  domain.  If  the 
Government  is  successful  in  its  contention,  plans 
will  be  perfected  for  the  development  of  such 
properties  as  it  may  succeed  in  gaining  possession 
of. 

This  contemplated  suit,  which  will  be  the  larg- 
est and  most  important  ever  instituted  in  Cali- 
fornia, will,  it  is  said,  be  commenced  within  a 
short  time,  the  Land  Offices  at  Los  Angeles  and 
San  Francisco,  assisted  by  a  land  expert  and  spe- 
cial assistant  of  the  United  States  Attorney-gen- 
eral's office  having  obtained  the  necessary  infor- 
mation to  enable  the  Government  to  begin  pro- 
ceedings. 


AFTEE  MINEEAL  AND   TIMBEE 

LAND    GEABBERS    IN    STATE. 

Three  ways  to  get  oil  lands  by  false  pretenses 
that  are  now  used  in  California  are  homestead  en- 
tries, desert  land  entries,  and  scrip  filings.  All  of 
these  methods  have  been  tried  in  the  San  Joaquin 
Valley,  so  State  Mineralogist  Lewis  E.  Aubury 
asserts,  and  the  attempts  to  get  valuable  oil  lands 
without  any  due  observance  of  the  law  have  been 
so  successful  that  the  matter  has  been  called  to 
the  attention  of  the  Federal  officials.  Frauds  have 
also  been  practiced  on  a  large  scale  in  other  north- 
ern counties,  by  which  vast  tracts  of  timber  lands 
were  secured  by  dummy  locators  for  large  operat- 
ors; and  scores  of  mining  claims  were  secured  by 
speculators,  using  dummy  locators.  A  fight  for 
the  protection  of  legitimate  mining  has  resulted  in 
rulings  by  the  Interior  Department  dispossessing 
land  grabbers  in  several  conspicuous  instances,  and 
precedents  were  established  that  are  valuable  in 
protecting   the   public   domain. 

There  are  now  two  suits  pending  in  the  Federal 
Courts  which  are  really  test  proceedings,  brought 
for  the  purpose  of  preventing  the  absorption  of 
the  oil  lands  of  the  State  through  fraud  that  is 
alleged  in  these  particular  instances,  and  rulings 
are  hoped  for  that  will  restore  much  illegally  ac- 
quired land  and  prevent  the  growth  of  various 
methods  into  vast  abuses.  The  point  direetly  at 
issue  is  the  cancellation  of  patents  that  have  been 
issued  for  oil  lands  that  were  taken  up  as  agri- 
cultural   lands. 

"This  is  really  a  matter  of  very  great  im- 
portance, ' '  so  Aubury  says.  ' '  as  millions  of  dol- 
lars'  worth  of  lands  are  at  stake.  After  I  had 
ascertained  mam*  facts  I  called  the  attention  of 
the  Secretary  of  the  Interior  to  the  matter,  who 
made  an  investigation  through  an  agent  which  led 
to  proceedings  bein'*  instituted  at  Los  Angeles  by 
Attorney-general    Wickersham.      Not    only    the    San 

.1 j  n  i  n    Valley,   but    other   portions    of   the    State, 

have  been  scenes  of  operations  of  this  sort,  involv- 
ing the  taking  up  of  oil  lands  unlawfully. 

"We  undoubtedly  have  great  oil  resources  in 
this  State,  the  size  of  which  cannot  be  even  esti- 
mated with  any  approximation  to  the  truth,  but 
there  is  none  too  much  oil  land.  There  is  none 
too  much  timber  land  or  too  much  placer  mining 
ground,  and  it  is  not  to  the  public  interest  that 
these  lands  should  fall  into  the  hands  of  a  very 
few  persons,  which  will  be  the  result  if  there  is  no 
attempt  to  put  a  stop  to  unlawful  practices.  This 
lesson  has  been  taught  already  in  relation  to  the 
timber   lands. 

"Lands  have  been  taken  up  alo-:  the  mother 
lode  us  homesteads,  when  the  lands  are  surely 
mineralized,  and  the  homestead  entries  were  made 
by  men  who  were  after  the  minerals  and  did  not 
expect  to  be.  and  never  wTould  be,  real  farmers. 
I  liope  for  a  successful  outcome  from  proceedings 
in  Los  Angeles  County  in  which  George  Sehwinn 
and    Mattie    A.    Reams    are    concerned.      The    fisiit 


for  fair  play  in  the  oil  lands  will  be  as  strenuous 
as  that  which  resulted  in  taking  awav  Teat  tracts 
of  laud  in  Plumas  and  Butte  Counties  from  grab- 
bers who  acquired  them  illegally.  The  State  Min- 
ing Bureau  will  do  all  that  it  can  to  protect  all 
legitimate  mining  and  oil  producing  interests,  but 
will  continue  to  fight  for  putting  a  stop  to  frauds 
of  all  kinds  that  threaten  the  integrity  of  these 
interests. 


GOLD,  SILVEE,  COPPER,  AND 

LEAD    IN    CALIFORNIA. 
Mine  Production  in  1910  as  Eeported  by  the  United 
States  Geological  Survey. 

The  mine  output  of  gold,  silver,  copper  and  lead 
in  California  in  1910  had  a  value  of  $27,020,405,  ac- 
cording to  figures  compiled  by  Charles  G.  Yale  and 
just  made  public  by  the  United  States  Geological 
Survey.  The  production  of  gold  was  $19,715,440; 
that  of  silver,  1,840,085  fine  ounees,  valued  at  $993,- 
646;  that  of  copper,  48,800,756  pounds,  valued  at 
$6,1S4,996;  and  that  of  lead,  2,870,977  pounds,  val- 
ued at  $126,323.  These  figures  show  a  decrease  in 
the  output  of  gold,  silver,  and  copper  as  compared 
with  the  figures  for  1909,  but  a  large  increase  in 
lead.  The  1909  figures  are  as  follows:  Gold,  $20,- 
237,870;  silver,  2,098,253  ounces,  valued  at  $1,091,- 
092;  copper.  57,288,281  pounds,  valued  at  $7,447.- 
476;  lead,  1,502,597  pounds,  valued  at  $64,612. 

There  were  1,079  mines  producing  gold,  silver, 
copper  or  lead  in  California  in  1910,  of  which  564 
were  gold  placer  mines.  Of  the  deep  mines,  485 
were  gold  mines,  9  were  silver  mines,  10  were  silver- 
lead  mines,  and  11  were  copper  mines.  Of  the  placer 
producers,  168  were  hydraulic  mines,  72  were 
dredges  operated  by  forty-one  companies,  139  were 
drift  mines  in  ancient  river  gravels,  and  185  were 
sluicing  mines.  Measured  by  the  number  of  pro- 
ducers as  well  as  by  tonnage  and  metal  output,  deep 
mining  decreased  somewhat  in  1910;  among  the 
placers,  sluicing  decreased  also,  but  dredge  and  drift 
mining  increased. 

In  1910  there  were  2,679,885  short  tons  of  ore 
from  deep  mines  sold  or  treated  in  California,  with 
an  average  total  recoverable  value  of  $6.71  per  ton, 
against  3,041,688  tons  in  1909,  with  an  average  re- 
coverable value  of  $6.41.  Of  the  total  recovered 
value  in  ores  in  1910  milling  ores  yielded  $10,005,- 
190  in  gold  and  silver;  and  smelting  ores,  $1,669,- 
008  in  gold  and  silver,  $6,184,996  in  copper  and 
$126,323  in  lead.  Placers  produced  $8,888,795  in 
gold,  of  which  $635,498  was  from  hydraulic  mines, 
$516,929  from  drift  mines,  $7,550,254  from  dredges, 
and  $186,114  from  sluicing  mines,  the  yield  from 
dredges  alone  being  over  38  per  cent  of  the  total 
gold  output  from  all  sources  in  California  in  1910. 

Gold  dredging  has  been  of  constantly  increasing 
importance  in  California  since  1899,  when  the  yield 
from  this  source  was  $206,302.  In  1910  it  was  $7.- 
550,254.  The  total  gold  output  by  dredges  in  Cali- 
fornia to  the  end  of  1910  was  $40,318,775.  The 
three  great  dredging  fields  are  those  of  Yuba.  Sac- 
ramento and  Butte  Counties,  of  which  the  Yuba 
field  showed  an  increased  output  of  $730,557  in 
1910,  while  the  production  from  Butte  County  de- 
creased $501.03S  and  that  of  Sacramento  County  de- 
creased  $164,542. 

Of  the  total  gold  production,  placers  furnished 
$2,468,505  from  Butte  County,  of  wdiich  $2,389,235 
was  from  dredges;  $1,394,537  from  Sacramento 
County,  of  which  $1,369,594  was  from  dredges;  and 
$3,199,952  from  Yuba  County,  of  which  $3,172,476 
was  from  dredges.  Dredges  also  produced  $191,900 
in  Calaveras  County,  $213,980  in  Merced  aud  Stan- 
islaus Counties  combined,  and  $109, 1S2  in  Siskiyou 
County.  Hydraulic  placers  produced  $179,105  in 
gold  from  Siskiyou  County  and  $328,154  from  Trin- 
ity County.  Drift  mines  produced  $147,599  in  placer 
gold  in  Nevada  County  and  $151,743  in  Placer 
County.  Surface  or  sluice  placers  produced  $29,700 
in  Plumas  County,  $22,339  in  Siskiyou  County,  and 
$27,476  in  Yuba  County,  aud  smaller  amounts  of  gold 
in  most  of  the  other  producing  counties  of  the  State. 


The  largest  increases  in  gold  production  by  coun- 
ties in  California  were  $347,461  in  Amador,  $80,815 
in  Mono,  $122,363  in  Sierra,  and  $734,408  in  Yuba. 
The  largest  decreases  were  $49,288  in  Butte,  $292,- 
806  in  Calaveras,  $78,885  in  Mariposa,  $126,752  in 
Nevada,  $272,940  in  Sacramento,  and  $310,077  in 
Tuolumne.  The  Mother  Lode  in  Amador,  Calaveras, 
El  Dorado,  Mariposa,  and  Tuolumne  Counties  pro- 
duced 1,170,497  short  tons  of  ore  in  1910,  with  a 
total  recovery  in  gold  and  silver  valued  at  $4,435,- 
802,  or  an  average  of  $3.78  per  ton,  against  1,338,- 
160  short  tons  yielding  $4,854,355,  an  average  of 
$3.60  per  ton,  in  1909. 

The  largest  productions  by  counties  in  1910,  and 
the  value  of  each,  are  given  as  follows,  for  gold,  sil- 
ver, copper  and  lead,  combined:  Shasta,  $7,313,- 
097;  Yuba,  $3,209,645;  Amador,  $2,685,401;  Nevada, 
$2,549,989;  Butte,  $2,494,220;  Calaveras,  $2,158,935; 
Sacramento,  $1,401,480. 


Great    Lakeview    Gusher    Stops    Flow. 

The  Lakeview  gusher,  that  came  in  at  Bakers- 
field  about  a  year  and  a  half  ago  with  such  force 
and  quantity  that  it  attracted  the  attention  of  oil 
men  throughout  the  country,  suddenly  ceased  to 
flow'  on  September  11th.  It  was  claimed  to  be  the 
greatest  oil  producing  well  in  the  United  States, 
and  excepting  five  days,  flowed  steadily  for  eigh- 
teen  months. 

The  passing  of  this  famous  well  was  marked  by 
a  slight  tremor  of  the  earth  and  the  spouting  of 
oil  from  its  two  nearest  neighbors.  The  Union  Oil 
Company  officials,  who  own  the  property,  ascribe 
the  stoppage  of  the  flow  to  a  cave-in,  and  believe 
the  well  is  now  lost  forever.  The  last  week  of  its 
existence  the  Lakeview  produced  800  barrels  of  oil 
a  day. 


Eich  Nevada  County  Strike  Eeported. 
News  of  a  rich  strike  in  a  gravel  mine  in  the 
Haskell  Peak  district  of  Nevada  County  has  caused 
much  excitement  in  Nevada  City.  It  is  reported 
that  rich  gravel  and  quartz  gold  have  been  taken 
out  in  large  quantities  and  that  the  mine  is  get- 
ting richer  as  work  progresses.

Celebrates  China  Anniversary. 

Sonora  Dardauelle  Parlor,  No.  66,  invited  the 
Native  Sous  and  Native  Daughters  of  all  the  Par- 
lors in  the  county  to  be  its  guests,  recently,  and 
help  eelebrate  the  twentieth  anniversary  of  the 
Parlor's  institution.  Many  responded.  Anona  Par- 
lor,  No.  164,  of  Jamestown,  being  especially  well 
represented.  The  hall  and  banquet  tables  were 
decorated  in  Chinese  style,  in  keeping  with  the 
china  anniversary  occasion,  and  the  Parlor  mem- 
bers,  as  well  as  several  of  the  Anona  girls,  were  ar- 
rayed in  Chinese  costumes.  The  Parlor  was  the  re- 
cipient of  many  handsome  presents.  During  the 
evening  an  interesting  program  was  rendered,  among 
the  features  being  the  following  original  lines,  con- 
tributed and  read  by  Mrs.  Eliza  Hardin: 

Anona   girls  were  invited 

A   week   or  so  ago, 
To   visit  with  the  Dardanelles 

And  see  a  great  big  show. 

So   here   we   are,   in   Chinee  pants, 

And  chink  coats  fixed  up   fine. 
To  share  the  fun  and  air  ourselves. 

And    have   a    way-up    time. 

A   Blackbird  steered  our  auto — 

It  looked  so  gay  and  bright — 
We  started  out  a  trifle  late. 

But  he  got  us  here  all  right. 

First,  Preston,  our  grand  officer, 

From  Santa  Cruz  so  brave; 
She  bears  the  honors  for  us  all. 

Long  may  her  banner  wave. 

Next,  Bristol,  with  her  magic  pen, 

To  keep  the  record  true; 
To  make  a  note  of  everything 

And   write  up  all   she  knew. 

Leland,  as  you  know  of  old, 

Keeps  everyone  "a  moving " 
And  when  you  see  her  in  the  crowd 

Be  sure  there's  "somethin'   doin'." 

Beck  with   says,   "jNtow  girls,  be   good; 

Don't   raise  a  great  big  muddle." 
But  we  never  listen  to  her  croak, 
■  She's  the  worst  one  in  the  puddle. 

Acker,   Durgan,   Hoskins  and   McCool, 
Were   stingy    with    their    stitches; 

And  that's  the   really,  truly  cause 
They   haven't    Chinee   breeches. 

Hardin   came  near  getting  left. 

Being  poky  to   get   ready; 
And   then   to   get   those   trousers  made 

She  had  to  work  derned  steady. 

And  last  of  all  came  little  "Walsh, 

A   Chinee  girl  to  be. 
And   when  they  dress  as  Chinks  again 

May    we   all    be   there   to   see. 

All   hail,  Sisters  Dardanelle! 
All  blessings  on  them  fall;

the  ball  was  an  immense  bell  of  red  geraniums  sus- 
pended from  the  center  of  the  hall;  festoons  of  as- 
paragus fern,  from  a  loop  in  the  bell,  extended  to

Mt.  Diablo  for  National  Park. 
Concord — D.D.G.P.  James  F.  Hoey  of  Martinez 
lias  installed  the  following  officers  of  Concord  Par- 
lor, Xo.  245:  Chas.  H.  Guy,  junior  past  president; 
I'.  M.  .Soto,  president;  M.  Xeustaedter,  first  vice- 
president;  Wm.  Straight,  second  vice-president;  C. 
I.  Fox.  third  vice-president;  "Walter  Williams,  sec- 
retary (re-elected);  Vincent  Hook,  treasurer;  H. 
Durham,  marshal;  T.  K.  Duncan,  inside  sentinel; 
Prank  Ford,  outside  sentinel;  Ernest,  Pramberg, 
trustee.  A.  C.  G  eh  ringer,  on  behalf  of  himself  and 
Charles  W.  Guy,  who  were  the  delegates  to  the 
Grand  Parlor  at  Santa  Cruz,  presented  the  Parlor 
with  two  gavels  made  of  California  redwood,  bril- 
liantly polished,  and  with  a  suitable  inscription  on 
the  silver  mountings.  President  Soto  responded,  ac- 
cepting the  gavels  on  behalf  of  the  members  of  the 
Parlor.  Following  the  business  session,  a  sumptu- 
ous banquet  was  served,  at  which  P.  M.  Soto  acted 
as  toast  master  and  responses  were  made  by  several 
of  the  Martinez  visitors  as  well  as  members  of  Con- 
cord  Parlor.  A  proposition  to  have  Mt.  Diablo  set 
aside  as  a  national  park  and  reservation  met  with 
instantaneous  and  enthusiastic  endorsement,  and 
was  the  theme  of  nearly  all  the  evening's  addresses. 
The  result  was.  that  an  effort  will  be  made  to  get 
;ill  the  Contra  Costa  County  Parlors  actively  inter- 
ested in  the  project,  and  there  is  no  doubt  but  that 
it  can  be  successfully  carried  through,  as  it  is  both 
feasible  and  desirable. 


Entertains  at  Banquet. 
S:i][  J.»se — Garden  City  Parlor,  No.  82,  had  an  en- 
thusiastic meeting,  August  28th,  when  several  ap- 
plications for  membership  were  filed.  At  the  con- 
clusion of  the  business  of  the  Parlor  a  banquet  was 
spread,  and  was  attended  by  the  joint  Admission 
Day  committee.  W.  L.  Chrisman  acted  as  toast- 
master,  and  the  following  responded  to  toasts:  Miss 
Belle  Gallagher,  "Vendome  Parlor";  Bert  Barrett, 
"Parlor  Progress";  Miss  Eda  Morriss,  "Our  Na- 
tive Daughters";  Bert  McCarley,  "A  Home  for  the 
(tiller  in  San  Jose";  W.  J.  Benson,  "The  Celebra 
tion  at  Santa  Eosa."  After  the  flow  of  oratory, 
the  following  program  was  much  enjoyed:  Solo, 
Bert  Henshaw;  piano  solo.  Miss  Hilda  Cbristenson; 
fancy  dance,  George  Kelly;  duet,  Miss  Lizette 
Faber  and  Miss  Emma  Haehnlen;  special  militarv 
drill,  Clarence   Mitchell  and  H.  W.   McComas.

brated its  first  meeting  in  new  quarters.  Encamp-

and  a  good  time  was  enjoyed  by  all. 

On  October  5th.  the  Parlor  will  hold  its  third  an- 
nual ball  at  Turner  Hall,  the  proceeds  of  which  will

ner. A  good  time  is  assured,  and  it  is  hoped  that 
the  hall  will  be  filled  to  overflowing. 


Prosperity  in  Sonoma. 
Sonoma — Sonoma  Parlor,  No.  Ill,  is  experiencing 
much  prosperity  in  the  way  of  new  members.  At 
two  recent  meetings,  large  classes  of  candidates 
were  tiiken  in.  and  several  more  applications  are  on 
file.  The  Parlor  made  a  fine  showing  in  the  Admis- 
sion Day  parade  at  Santa  Eosa.  The  members 
wore  attired  in  attractive  new  uniforms,  and  es- 
corted  by  the  Sonoma  Valley  brass  band  of  twenty- 
eight    pieces,   created   a   favorable   impression. 


Holds  Anniversary  Ball. 
San  Francisco — Army  and  Navy  Parlor,  No.  207, 
held  its  anniversary  ball.  September  21st,  and 
through  the  hard  work  of  the  various  committees

chestra of  ten  pieces  rendered  special  music  and 
introduced  for  the  first  time  "The  California  Vol- 
unteer," a  two-step  dedicated  to  the  Parlor.  Eov

Items  for  this  department  are  solicited 
from  Subordinate  Parlors,  but  it  must  be 
borne  in  mind  that,  to  insure  prompt  publica- 
tion, the  same  must  reach  the  publishers  not 
later  than  the  20th  day  of  each  month. 

Items  arriving  after  that  date  will  have  to 
be  held  back,  without  further  notice  to  the 
senders.  So  if  your  Parlor  news  does  not  ap- 
pear promptly,  you  will  know  why.

To   Celebrate   Anniversary. 

Healdsburg — A  class  initiation  was  held  in 
Healdsburg  Parlor,  No.  68,  September  27th,  which 
was  followed  by  a  banquet  consisting  of  a  great 
variety  of  delicacies  donated  by  the  various  mem- 
bers. The  affair  was  much  enjoyed  and  well  at- 
tended. 

October  6th,  being  the  Parlor's  anniversary,  the 
event  will  be  celebrated  with  a  card  party  and 
dance,  and  a  big  attendance  is  anticipated,  as  these 
annual  affairs  have  been  given  in  the  past  with 
great    success. 


Grand  President  Pays  Visit. 
Grass  Valley — Quartz  Parlor,  No.  58,  was  hon- 
ored with  a  visit  from  Grand  President  H.  C. 
Lichtenberger  of  Los  Angeles.  September  11th. 
Accompanied  by  his  wife,  the  Grand  President 
came  here  from  the  Admission  Day  celebration  at 
Santa  Rosa,  and  upon  arrival  both  were  taken  in 
hand  by  a  local  committee  and  royally  entertained 
during  their  brief  stay  in  this  city.  There  was  a 
large  attendance  at  the  session  of  the  Parlor,  and 
after  the  evening's  business  had  been  dispensed 
with  a  banquet  was  spread,  at  which  the  Grand 
President  delivered  an  address  of  interest  to  all 
the  members.  George  A.  Stewart,  president  of  the 
Parlor,  presided  as  toastmaster,  and  responses 
were  made  as  follows:  "The  Pioneers,"  William 
Temby;  "The  Flag,"  W.  J.  Morris;  "Quartz  Par- 
lor," J.  C.  Tyrrell.  Mr.  Tyrrell  concluded  his  re- 
marks by  presenting  the  visitor,  on  behalf  of  the 
Parlor,  with  a  very  handsome  gold  quartz  scarf 
pin.  made  from  ore  from  one  of  the  mines  in  this 
famous   district. 


To   Investigate   Merchants'    Action. 

San  Francisco — The  members  of  the  Order  in 
this  city  are  much  wrought  up  over  the  refusal  of 
many  of  the  local  merchants  to  close  their  places 
of  business  on  Admission  Day,  a  custom  which  has 
been  followed  in  previous  years  since  the  setting 
aside  by  the  State  Legislature  of  September  9th  as 
a  legal  holiday.  Several  Parlors  have  passed  con- 
demnatory resolutions,  and  an  investigation  of  the 
reason  for  the  action  of  the  merchants  has  elicited 
information  which  lays  the  blame  at  the  door  of 
a  large  department  store.  The  matter  has  been 
extensively  debated  among  the  members,  and  fur- 
ther  action   is   anticipated. 

At  a  recent  meeting  of  California  Parlor,  No.  1, 
when  Grand  President  H.  C.  Lichtenberger  was 
present,  the  matter  was  brought  up  and  he  gave 
his  official  sanction  for  the  calling  by  California 
Parlor  of  a  meeting  of  representatives  of  the  Par- 
lors concerned.  California  Parlor  has  accordingly 
issued  a  call  for  five  delegates  from  each  of  the 
Parlors  in  San  Francisco  and  the  Bay  counties  to 
assemble  in   San  Francisco  on  September  30th. 

At  this  meeting  the  matter  will  be  fully  dis- 
cussed and  action  no  doubt  taken  against  those 
who  showed  their  disrespect  to  the  State  by  fail- 
ing to  observe  its  birthday  holiday,  and  as  well  to 
insure  against  a  repetition  of  the  offense  in  the 
future.

visited  that  Parlor.  Mr.  Atwood  created  much 
enthusiasm  in  his  address,  and  roused  the  members

the  establishment  of  a  Redwood  park  in  this 
County.  He  congratulated  the  Parlor  upon  its  ex- 
cellent condition,  both  numerical  and  financial,  and 
complimented  the  officers  for  the  manner  in  which 
the  business  affairs  are  conducted.  At  the  con- 
clusion of  the  business  session,  a  chicken  dinner 
was  served  and  speeches  by  several  members  and 
visitors    enjoyed. 

The  Parlor  has  appointed  a  committee  consisting 
of  Dr.  E.  J.  Robinson,  J.  Bentley  and  W.  P.  Pratt 
to  take  up  the  matter  of  establishing  a  museum  in 
the  Eureka  Library,  to  be  looked  after  by  the  Par- 
lors of  Humboldt  County.  The  library  trustees 
have  already  agreed  to  donate  the  necessary  space. 

On  October  8th,  or  thereabouts,  the  Parlor  will 
give  a  benefit  in  behalf  of  the  Homeless  Children  's 
Agency,  a  committee  made  up  of  F.  W.  Morgensen.

handsome  emblematic  watch  fob  by  Percy  Hight,  on 
behalf  of  the  Parlor.  Ice  cream  and  cake  were 
served  following  the  business  session,  and  addresses 
were  made  by  the  district  deputy,  Ed  Leake  of 
Woodland  Parlor,  Edgar  McFadyen.  C.  M.  Hunt  of 
Los  Angeles  and  others.  The  Parlor  plans  active 
membership  and  social  campaigns  during  the  winter. 


Handsome    Remembrances. 

Nevada  City — Hydraulic  Parlor,  No.  56,  had  a 
large  attendance  at  its  meeting  September  12th.  the 
occasion  being  a  visit  from  Grand  President  H.  C. 
Lichtenberger  of  Los  Angeles.  At  the  business  ses- 
sion the  Parlor's  work  was  praised  by  the  visitor, 
and  the  officers  were  highly  complimented.  A 
chicken  supper  followed.  Jo  V.  Snyder  presiding  as 
toastmaster,  and  on  behalf  of  the  Parlor,  presented 
the  Grand  President  with  a  handsome  gold  nugget 
taken  from  the  hydraulic  diggings  of  Nevada 
County,  and  from  which  the  Parlor  derives  its  title, 
"Hydraulic."  And  the  Parlor  did  not  overlook 
Mrs.  Lichtenberger,  who  accompanied  her  husband, 
either,  for  while  she  could  not  attend  the  Parlor's 
session,  she  was  the  recipient  of  the  members'  well 
wishes  in  the  shape  of  a  beautifully  carved  souvenir 
spoon,  suitably  engraved.  At  the  festive  board 
many  addresses  were  made  and  several  hours  were 
pleasantly  spent  in  social  converse. 

During  their  stay  here,  Mr.  and  Mrs.  Lickten 
berger  were  entertained  at  the  home  of  Dr.  and 
Mrs.  C.  W.  Chapman,  who  are  among  the  most  act- 
ive members  of  the  local  Parlors  of  Native  Sons 
and  Native  Daughters,  respectively,  and  were 
shown  all  the  plaees  of  interest  hereabouts.

tember 9tk,  to  observe  Admission  Day,  fully  500  be- 
ing present.  In  addition  to  the  well-filled  lunch 
baskets  which  each  merrymaker  brought  along,  the 
committee  provided  barbecued  meat,  and  when 
lunch  time  came  and  all  were  seated  at  the  festive 
board,  the  tables  fairly  groaned  under  a  weight  of 
every  delicacy  one  could  think  of.  An  orchestra 
was  in  attendance  and  discoursed  appropriate 
music  throughout  the  day.  A  baseball  game  and  ath- 
letic sports  provided  amusements.  During  the  day 
the  following  literary  and  musical  program,  under 
the  guidance  of  Edward  Wahl,  was  carried  out: 
Music,  orchestra;  address  of  welcome,  Ralph  E.

orchestra. 


When  the  prim-rose  plumed  acacia 
Cast  fragrance  everywhere. 

I  loved  the  slopes  of  Sunnyside, 
Where  bloomed   the   hawthorn   tree, 
.  Fair  place,  so  peaceful  and  so  calm, 
A  hallowed  spot  to  me. 


Three  classes  of  persons  are  essential  to  the  suc-

important  as  the  other  two — is  that  known  as  the 
"pious  benefactor." 

ALMA  MATER. 
(Lovingly   dedicated   to    Susan   Lincoln   Mills.) 
Among  the  pleasures  I  have  known 
In  youth's  fair  halcyon  hours. 

The  sweetest  joys  have  come  to  me 
Amidst  Mills'  fragrant  flowers. 

When    yearning    now    o'er   yester-years, 
Fond  memory   ever  dwells, 

On  the  verdant  lawn,  the  lillied  lea 
The   oft-repeating  bells. 

Again,  upon   the   perfumed   pines, 
The   zephyrs   gently   play, 

A  melody  Aeolian, 
Some  faint  and  plaintive  lay. 

How  have  I  strayed  beneath  the  oaks 
Where   ivy  loved   to   twine, 

And  barkened  to  the  lisping  brook 
In    bygone    summer-time. 

Ah,  perhaps  you  may  remember 
The   periwinkle   glade, 

The  stately  eucalyptus  grove 
Which  lent  a  grateful  shade. 

At  noon-time,  when  from  lessons  free 
You  wandered  down  the  lane, 

And  caught  a  glimpse  of  yellow  fields, 
Wrhere   waved  the  golden  grain. 

Then  Maytide,  when  the  breath  of  rose 
And  lilac  filled  the  air. 


Leona  Creek,   Mills  College. 


Alma  Mater,  thou  art  most  dear, 
Serene  among  the  hills; 

Blest  home  we  ever  will  revere, 
Our  own  beloved  Mills.

down  a  ravine  300  feet  deep,  as  the  result  of  the 
bank  of  the  road  caving  in.  Three  horses  and  three 
of  the  passengers  were  killed  and  driver  Nesmith 
seriously   injured  by  the  accident. 

Indian  depredations  were  attracting,  considerable 
attention  in  Northern  California.  The  Wylackies, 
who  ranged  for  some  200  miles  through  Humboldt 
and  other  northern  counties,  were  the  principal 
offenders.  They  stole  a  band  of  forty  horses  from 
Long  Valley  and  were  killing  cattle  and  unpro- 
tected travelers,  especially  Chinamen,  so  frequently 
that  a  large  number  of  settlers  in  Long  Valley  and 
Round  Valley  set  out  to  chastise  them.  They  found 
about  400  of  them  camped  in  the  mountains,  having 
a  feast  on  horseflesh,  and  attacking  them,  killed 
over  100.  Governor  Downey  commissioned  Captain 
G.  W.  Work  to  organize  a  company  and  proceed  to 
Humboldt  County  and  disperse  them.  The  Indians 
were  said  to  be  under  the  command  of  renegade 
Mexicans.  A  tight  between  Modoc  and  Shasta  In- 
dians resulted  in  the  death  of  several  dusky  war- 
riors at  Hawkinsville.  One  dead  "Injun"  was 
found  with  six  arrows  shot  into  his  body. 
Thirty  Deer  in  Two  Days. 

Herndon  Barrett,  Sheriff  of  Yuba  County,  re- 
turned to  MarysviUe  from  a  hunting  expedition  to 
the  coast  accompanied  by  two  men,  with  thirty  deer 
killed  in  two  days. 

A  salmon  trout  weighing  six  pounds  was  caught 
in  Hangtown  Creek,  near  Placerville,  which  aston- 
ished the  population  to  a  great  degree. 

Selaya,  the  heretofore  invincible  Mexican  foot- 
racer,  was  beaten  by  an  American  named  Carr  at 
Warm  Springs  and  was  afterwards  reported  shot 
by  a  fellow  countryman  in  a  dispute  over  the  race. 

A  Campbellite  camp  meeting  was  held  at  Manza- 
nita  Hill,  on  Bear  River,  in  Placer  County.  Over 
500  people  were  in  attendance  and  a  commissary 
was  established  that  slaughtered  the  cattle,  baked 
the    bread    and   supplied   the    campers      with      food. 

G.  D.  Wells,  Prof.  Blake  and  A.  H.  Myers  were 
selected  to  represent  San  Francisco  at  the  World  's 
Fair   in   London. 

Miners  Getting  Good  Returns. 

Some  excellent  finds  and  yields  were  reported 
from  the  mines.  McCaustin  &  Co.,  on  Mission  Bar, 
in   Trinity   County,  were  taking  out  $600  a  day. 

The  Napoleon  copper  mine,  in  Stanislaus  County, 
struck  a  vein  of  auriferous  tellurium  that  was 
yielding  $70  a  ton  in  gold  and  silver. 

Three  men  on  Scott 's  Bar,  in  Siskiyou  County, 
took  out  $7000  in  gold  dust  in  one  week. 

At  Newark,  Sierra  County,  a  nugget  weighing 
four  pounds  and  worth  over  $800  was  found. 

The  Sierra  Buttes  Co.  cleaned  up  $26,000  after  a 
six    weeks'    run. 

An  oil  company  was  organized  to  bore  for  oil  in 
Humboldt  County. 


CALIFORNIA,    MY    HOME! 

(An   Original   Song.) 
No  other  land  so  dear  to  me. 

No  other  skies  so  softly  blue; 
A  lover's  song  I   sing  to  thee, 

From   a  lover's   heart    so   true. 

i  alifornia,  my  home,  dear  sunny  land, 
The   echoes  repeat,   "California,  my  home.'' 
Like  the  song   of  thy  pines,   where 'ere   I   roam, 
The    eachoes    repeat,    ' ( California,    my    home. 

Fair  cities  deck  thy  ample  breast, 

And  wealth  of  tree  and  vine; 
The  golden  poppies  crown  thy  rest, 

The  gold  hides  in  thy  mine. 

California,  my  home,  oh,  fairest  of  climes, 
Like  the  light  of  true  love,  thy  radiance  shines; 
In  blissful  content  from  thee  I'll  ne'er  roam, 
But  abide  with  thee  ever.  California,  my  home. 

A  eity  guards  thy  Western  gate — 

Thy  gate  of  gold  and  pearl; 
Beyond,   the  merchant   fleets  await 

Thy  wealth,  to  bear  around  the  world. 

California,  my  home,  from  mountain  to  sea. 
May  the  banner  of  Love  ever  wave  over  thee; 
Across  thy  fair  borders,  may  Wrong  never  come, 
But  Justice  dwell   with   thee.   California,  my  home.

THE  WINNING  OF  BARBARA  WORTH. 


tanm 


ntem 


HE  WINNING  OF  BARBARA 
Worth,"  by  Harold  Bell  Wright,  is 
another  star  in  the  author's  crown 
of  success — and  the  brightest  of 
them  all.  In  this  present-day  story 
of  desert  life  and  the  national 
reclamation  work,  we  have  as  clean 
and  wholesome  a  book  as  man  ever 
wrote;  a  story  of  b'^  things,  strong 
people  and  high  ideals.  He  has  de- 
lineated the  passions,  the  longings, 
the  motives,  the  loves  and  the 
hatreds  of  men  and  women  with  added  skill,  and 
lie  has  also,  with  finer  power,  '  analyzed  human 
emotions  and  penetrated  more  keenly  the  depths  of 
human  soul.  His  characters  are  so  life-like  that 
vou  will  wonder  if,  after  all,  thev  are  not  real  peo- 
ple. For  the  land  of  "The  Hollow  of  God's 
Hand"  is  easy  of  access;  and  many  are  the  read- 
ers, when  walking  the  streets  of  Republic,  who  will 
instinctively  try  to  identify  Barbara  or  her  father; 
or  it  may  be  the  civil  engineer,  or  surveyor,  or  the 
old  plainsman  you  imagine  you  will  meet  face  to 
face,  until  you  remember  that  they  are  all  in  the 
story  and  that  you  never  will.  Barbara  Worth,  of 
course,  you  will  love — you  ean  't  help  it.  With 
her  soft,  sweet  voice  of  the  Southland,  big  brown 
eyes  and  wealth  of  brown  hair,  she  is  an  inspira- 
tion. 

Mr.  Wright 's  civil  engineers  are  real  and  sur- 
mounting insurmountable  barriers,  just  as  they  do 
in  the  activities  of  real  life.  And  who  is  there 
who  does  not  find  interest  in  the  problems  and  life- 
work  of  our  civil  engineers?  What  character  in 
our  national  progress  is  more  completely  surround- 
ed by  the  glamour  of  romance?  But  there  are 
other  characters  in  "The  Winning  of  Barbara 
Worth"  that  will  claim  their  full  share  of  your 
heart;  not  least  of  which  are  Abe  Lee,  Texas  Joe, 
the  Irish  boss,  and  dear  Pablo — ever  faithful 
Pablo,  who  loved  the  sehorita  and  received  her 
smiles  and  kind  words  with  homage  and  adoration. 
The  plot,  through  which  there  runs  an  intense 
love  interest,  is  mighty  in  its  conception  and  is 
carried  to  a  satisfactory  close  with  the  smoothness 
of  running  water.  It  is  one  of  big  incidents  and 
rapid  action,  and  bears  a  messageas  broad  as  hu- 
manity itself — "The  Ministry  of  Capital."  Mr. 
Wright  is  very  forceful  in  his  clear  analysis  and 
makes  us  see  the  difference  between  man  seeking 
to  make  capital  serve  the  race,  and  man  serving 
capital,  in  each  case  driven  by  the  same  master- 
passion — good  business.  And  in  it  all  we  feel  the 
uplifting  power  of  his  words  kindling  the  fires  of 
ambition,  arousing  the  will  to  do,  and  adding 
fresh  courage  to  our  hopes  and  aspirations.  In  his 
descriptions,  the  author  has  exceeded  his  own  past 
efforts.  He  knows  the  desert  life,  and  has  so  viv- 
idly clothed  his  story  with  the  local  color  and 
breezy  atmosphere  of  the  West  that  we  also  are 
privileged  to  see  and  know  the  great  silent  land 
and    feel    its   spirit    call. 

"The   Winning   of  Barbara   Worth"    is   different 
from    any    novel    the    author    has    heretofore    done, 


The  California  Country  Li.fe  Committee,  created 
by.  action  of  the  First  State  Country  Life  Confer- 
ence, held  under  the  auspices  of  the"  University  of 
California  at  Davis  last  year,  has  issued  a  call  for 
the  appointment  of  delegates  to  a  rural  education 
■conference  at  University  Farm,  Davis,  Saturday, 
October  14,  191],  beginning  at  10:30  a.m.  While 
the  purpose  of  tne  committee  is  to  further  the 
whole  development  of  country  life  in  this  State, 
the  immediate  object  of  this  conference  will  be  to 
discuss  the  needs  of  rural  schools  and,  if  deemed 
advisable,  make  recommendations  to  proper  author- 
ities, looking  toward  a  redirection  of  this  important 
branch  of  the  public  school  system. 

It  is  charged,  both  in  this  State  and  throughout 
the  Nation,  that  rural  schools  fail  to  fulfill  their 
best  mission  because  they  do  not  teaeh  in  terms  of 
daily  life  of  pupils,  nor  seek  to-  interest  and  in- 
struct in  rural  pursuits,  nor  impress  the  value  and 
importance  of  country  opportunities,  nor  inculcate 
country  ideals.  These  charges,  if  true,  constitute 
a  serious  indictment,  and  therefore  will  be  given 
careful  consideration.  An  attempt  will  also  be  made 
to  learn  what  is  being  done  by-  various  agencies 
h. ward    improvement    and      redirection      of      rural 


CONDUCTED  BY  NETTIE  S.  GAINES 


but  it  is  somewhat  after  the  style  of  ' '  The  Shep- 
herd of  the  Hills. ' '  The  three  elements  of 
strength — '  *  motive  power,  "  "  story  power ' '  and 
' *  thought  power '  '—that  each  of  his  other  three 
novels  in  turn  so  distinctly  possess,  are  combined 
in  this  latest  story.  Living  for  the  past  four 
years  in  the  great  Colorado  Desert  and  actively 
engaged  with  other  pioneers  in  reclaiming  our  bar- 
ren and  waste  lands,  it  was  only  natural  that  Mr. 
Wright  should  move  the  scene  of  his  story-telling 
from  the  Ozarks  to  the  far  West.  "The  Winning 
of  Barbara  Worth"  is  the  longest  novel  this  pop- 
ular author  has  thus  far  given  us.  From  the  first 
compelling  line  of  the  opening  chapter,  each  suc- 
ceeding chapter,  with  a  gathered  force,  multiplies 
the  interest  of  the  reader.  With  emotions  glad 
and  sorrowful  pulling  at  the  heart  strings  here, 
and  a  smile  or  burst  of  laughter  there,  you  read 
on  and  on  until  you  very  regretfully  reach  the  close 
of  a  worthy  and  excellent  book. 

It  remained  for  the  author  of  "That"  Printer  of 
Udell's"  and  "The  Shepherd  of  the  Hills"  to  lay 
bare  the  actual  conditions  in  actual  church  life  of 
the  present  day  in  that  masterful  work,  ' '  The 
Calling  of  Dan  Matthews,"  and  not  only  continue 
his  uplifting  work,  but  make  a  further  search  for 
truth  in  his  allegory  of  life,  "The  Uncrowned 
King,"  that  delightful  little  volume  of  a  hundred 
pages.  So  it  has  also  remained  for  this  gifted 
author  to  write  in  "  The  Winning  of  Barbara 
Worth'"  a  great  American  novel  of  desert  life  and 
the  national  reclamation  work  and  present-day 
good  business.  Will  Harold  Bell  Wright  ever  give 
us  a  bigger  story  than  "The  Winning  of  Barbara 
Worth?"  Man}r  thousands  of  readers  will  ask 
themselves  this  same  question,  but  time  only  holds 
the    answer. 


thors,  W.  C.  Morrow  has  opened  down- town  head- 
quarters in  San  Francisco,  where  his  lecturing  and 
teaching  will  now  be  done.  On  Saturday  even- 
ings, he  will  give  popular  lectures  in  which  special 
attention  will  be  given  to  the  meaning  and  writing 
of  literature,  based  on  the  philosophy  of  life  and 
living,  and  intended  not  alone  for  writers  and  for 
students  of  literature  but  for  all  desiring  a  more 
efficient   life. 

One  phase  of  the  work  handled  by  Mr.  Morrow 
that  will  be  much  appreciated  on  this  coast  will  be 
an  authors'  agency.  This  is  for  marketing  the 
works  of  Western  writers  and  is  designed  to  meet 
the  needs  of  those  who  want  the  help  of  an  agent, 
convenient  for  advice,  who  is  an  experienced 
author  and  critic,  and  who  has  a  standing  with 
Eastern  editors  and  publishers.  Other  phases  of 
the  work  are  individual  instruction  in  authorship, 
instruction  in  writing  English,  private  classes  and 
open   classes,   day  and  evening. 

Sunset  Magazine,  San  Francisco,  has  said  of  Mr. 
Morrow's  work:  "Few  Pacific  Coast  writers  are 
more  deserving  of  the  fame  that  has  come  to  them 
than  W.  C.  Morrow,  the  author.  No  one  since 
Bret  Harte  has  done  more  to  develop  a  character- 
istic Calif ornian  literature;  no  one  has  done  more 
to  insist  on  purity  of  style  and  gracefulness  of  dic- 
tion than  Mr.  Morrow.  To  train  others  in  the  art 
of  good  writing,  to  develop  fine  instinct,  taste,  and 
expression  have  been  to  him,  of  recent  years,  a  labor 
of  love  that  is  bringing  him  today  recognition 
through  the  successful  men  and  women  who  have 
learned  from  him  wise  things  in  literature.  When 
the  publishers  of  the  world  get  too-ether  and  award 
gold  medals  to  their  best  friends,  Mr.  Morrow 's 
name  should  be  at  the  top  of  the  list." 


CALIFORNIA,    THE   BEAUTIFUL. 

' '  California,  the  Beautiful. ' '  is  the  attractive 
title  of  a  book  which  will  soon  be  found  in  the 
bookstores.  It  is  composed  of  extracts  from  the 
prose  and  verse  of  California  writers,  each  extract 
being  made  the  more  impressive  by  its  aceompany- 
ing  illustration,  which  has  been  carefully  selected 
from  camera  "studies,  by  California  artists,  of  the 
beautiful  scenery  of  this  State,  together  with  a  few 
of  the  missions.  The  thirty-six  views  are  quite 
representative  of  the  State's  scenery,  being  taken 
from  all   parts. 

They  who  love  California's  literature  are  happy 
in  the  thought  that  Paul  Elder  has  seen  fit  to  give 
expression  to  his  art  in  such  a  way  as  to  bring 
about  a  deeper  appreciation  for  the  writings  of 
those  who  have  created  our  wonderful  literature. 
At  present  writing,  he  has  but  gathered  together 
these  gems  of  literature  and  art,  but  when  they 
have  taken  on  the  beautiful  garb  which  he  has 
designed  for  them,  the  creation  will,  indeed,  be 
worth_y  of  the  title,  "California,  the  Beautiful." 
Later,  in  these  columns,  will  be  given  a  complete 
description  of  the  contents  of  this  work, 


W.  C.  MORROW'S  NEW  PLANS. 
After    twelve   years'    successful    guidance    of   au- 


LITERARY   NOTES. 

Joaquin  Miller,  who  for  months  past  has  been 
seriously  ill,  is  reported  now  as  being  well  on  the 
way  to  recovery.  The  aged  poet  ascribes  his  con- 
valescence to  the  care  of  his  daughter,  Juanita, 
who  dropped  her  music  in  New  York  and  hastened 
to  the  poet's  bedside  when  she  found  him  ill.  Mr. 
Miller  recently  presented  his  daughter  with  a  copy 
of  "The  Building  of  the  City  Beautiful."'  in  which 
he  wrote:  "For  Baby  Juanita,  who  stretched  out 
her  little  hands  and  brought  me  back  from  the 
great  beyond."  Mr.  Miller  has  recommenced  his 
work    of   writing. 

Henry  Mead  Bland,  poet  and  story  writer,  who 
is  also  favorably  known  as  teacher  of  English  lit- 
erature in  the  State  Normal  school  at  San  Jose, 
has  been  given  sabbatical  leave  by  the  Board  of 
Trustees  of  the  Normal  School  for  one  year.  Mr. 
Bland  intends  to  devote  himself  wholly  to  the 
study  of  literary  art,  and  for  that  purpose  will 
visit  places  of  important  literary  significance  in 
the  East,  and  will  spend  some  time  at  great  East- 
ern universities.  Mr.  Bland's  recent  stories,  "The 
Gardener  at  the  Mission"  and -"The  Atlas  of  San 
Antonio,"  published  in  the  Argonaut,  have  at- 
tracted much  attention,  having  been  widely  copied 
in  various  periodicals.  He  will  return  to  his  work 
at  the  Normal   in   September,  1912.
